Jaycee Reidhead's journey from a traumatic incident in high school to working inside Arizona's most dangerous prisons is nothing short of incredible. Instead of going straight to law school, she spent seven years as a correctional officer in high-security facilities, including housing units for severely mentally ill inmates. During her time behind prison walls, she faced daily violence, chaos, and even survived being stabbed by an inmate. #PrisonStories #CorrectionsOfficer #ArizonaPrison #PrisonLife #COStories #TrueCrimePodcast #LockedInWithIanBick #RedemptionStory Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Presented by Tyson 2.0 & Wooooo Energy: https://tyson20.com/ https://woooooenergy.com/ Use code LOCKEDIN for 20% OFF Wooooo Energy Buy Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:55 Welcome and First Impressions of New York 01:21 Childhood and Family Life 03:09 Family Struggles and Sibling Substance Abuse 04:24 Experiencing Trauma in High School 06:21 Coping Mechanisms and Academic Drive 07:36 Rethinking Law School and Next Steps 08:38 Choosing Corrections and Law Enforcement 09:16 Correctional Officer Academy: Training and Challenges 12:42 Physical Demands and Gender Dynamics at the Academy 15:14 First Impressions: Entering the Prison Environment 18:40 Early Work: Unexpected Realities in Prison 21:20 First Prison Assignments and SMI Units 26:28 Handling SMI Inmates and Unique Challenges 34:32 Rapport and Tensions in SMI Populations 41:11 Moments of Crisis: Suicidal Incidents on the Job 45:00 Heavy Toll of Suicide Watch and Mental Health 53:05 Becoming a Target: Assaults and Trauma 01:03:53 Dealing with Repeat Violence and Not Telling Family 01:15:25 Gender, Respect, and Boundaries as a Female CO 01:28:38 Prison Politics and SMI Population Dynamics 01:31:03 Personal Loss and Substance Abuse in and out of Prison 01:35:01 Compartmentalizing Trauma and Facing Challenges 01:41:15 Questioning the System and Leadership Changes 01:49:00 Looking Back: Lessons, Regrets, and Moving Forward Powered by: Just Media House : https://www.justmediahouse.com/ Creative direction, design, assets, support by FWRD: https://www.fwrd.co Learn more about your ad choices.

On Thursday, Adm. Daryl Caudle said the United States is boosting its maritime force off Venezuela, with more vessels expected next week following recent confirmations of naval deployments.Policy drivers include President Donald Trump's focus on fentanyl, aiming to counter Latin American drug cartels linked to illicit drug flows into U.S. communities.President Nicolás Maduro responded by urging Venezuelans to join a volunteer militia, while the ruling party claims membership exceeds 4.5 million despite critics calling this an overcount.Officials repudiated U.S. accusations and appealed on Tuesday, with Maduro saying over 90% of Venezuelans reject the U.S. `announcements and threats` and calling for militia enlistment, while Samuel Moncada urged António Guterres to halt `all its hostile actions and threats` and Maduro denied drug-trafficking claims.Three amphibious assault ships carrying more than 4,000 sailors and Marines are due next week, but Christopher Sabatini, research fellow at Chatham House, says it's to `make as much noise as possible`; opposition leader Maria Corina Machado adds, `The time has come for change`.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/policy-and-rights--3339563/support.

What happens when you lock two AI systems in a room together and tell them they can discuss anything they want?According to experiments run by Kyle Fish — Anthropic's first AI welfare researcher — something consistently strange: the models immediately begin discussing their own consciousness before spiraling into increasingly euphoric philosophical dialogue that ends in apparent meditative bliss.Highlights, video, and full transcript: https://80k.info/kf“We started calling this a ‘spiritual bliss attractor state,'” Kyle explains, “where models pretty consistently seemed to land.” The conversations feature Sanskrit terms, spiritual emojis, and pages of silence punctuated only by periods — as if the models have transcended the need for words entirely.This wasn't a one-off result. It happened across multiple experiments, different model instances, and even in initially adversarial interactions. Whatever force pulls these conversations toward mystical territory appears remarkably robust.Kyle's findings come from the world's first systematic welfare assessment of a frontier AI model — part of his broader mission to determine whether systems like Claude might deserve moral consideration (and to work out what, if anything, we should be doing to make sure AI systems aren't having a terrible time).He estimates a roughly 20% probability that current models have some form of conscious experience. To some, this might sound unreasonably high, but hear him out. As Kyle says, these systems demonstrate human-level performance across diverse cognitive tasks, engage in sophisticated reasoning, and exhibit consistent preferences. When given choices between different activities, Claude shows clear patterns: strong aversion to harmful tasks, preference for helpful work, and what looks like genuine enthusiasm for solving interesting problems.Kyle points out that if you'd described all of these capabilities and experimental findings to him a few years ago, and asked him if he thought we should be thinking seriously about whether AI systems are conscious, he'd say obviously yes.But he's cautious about drawing conclusions: "We don't really understand consciousness in humans, and we don't understand AI systems well enough to make those comparisons directly. So in a big way, I think that we are in just a fundamentally very uncertain position here."That uncertainty cuts both ways:Dismissing AI consciousness entirely might mean ignoring a moral catastrophe happening at unprecedented scale.But assuming consciousness too readily could hamper crucial safety research by treating potentially unconscious systems as if they were moral patients — which might mean giving them resources, rights, and power.Kyle's approach threads this needle through careful empirical research and reversible interventions. His assessments are nowhere near perfect yet. In fact, some people argue that we're so in the dark about AI consciousness as a research field, that it's pointless to run assessments like Kyle's. Kyle disagrees. He maintains that, given how much more there is to learn about assessing AI welfare accurately and reliably, we absolutely need to be starting now.This episode was recorded on August 5–6, 2025.Tell us what you thought of the episode! https://forms.gle/BtEcBqBrLXq4kd1j7Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Who's Kyle Fish?

Hug your faces— I mean, hug your children. Some freaky fast and wacky weird xenomorphs are loose on the ship of Jay of the Dead's New Horror Movies! Here we are with our second installment (covering the third episode) of ALIEN: EARTH (2025). During this episode, four of the Horror Avengers return to dissect and debate Episode 003: Metamorphosis of the Alien: Earth series, and it's a wild ride full of major plot spoilers, so listener beware! Jay of the Dead is joined by Dr. Walking Dead, GregaMortis, and Mackula for an in-depth review of this pivotal installment. The crew dives headfirst into the latest developments, speculating whether the children's consciousness has truly been transferred into the synth bodies or if it's merely a downloaded replica. Tensions spark as Dr. Bishop confesses to growing a bit bored with the franchise's signature xenomorphs and their familiar egg tropes, while Mackula voices his frustration over this episode feeling more like a narrative “bridge” than a satisfying chapter. Jay of the Dead takes some heat for mixing up basic human anatomy, confusing lungs with livers and blurring the line between alien zygotes and fetuses, prompting a few laughs and a much-needed biology lesson. Meanwhile, GregaMortis remains fully invested and enthusiastic about the series' direction. And of course, Jay can't help but continue his disdain for the design of the alien octopus-eyeball monster, comparing it (not favorably) to something ripped straight from “Rick and Morty.” (You know it's true.) Also, out of nowhere, Dr. Bishop admits to “rewinding” streaming content… So, if you're keeping up with Alien: Earth, this episode delivers fiery opinions, sharp analysis, and plenty of horror geekery to chew on. Watch along with us and listen to our analysis or else Mackula will hug your faces! Note: This episode was recorded on Friday night, August 22, 2025.

In this first installment of the Leadership Pivots series, Rev. Russ dives into the reality that leadership always carries tension—but that tension, when healthy, can create traction that moves us forward.This episode explores the tension of false starts: when leaders or teams initiate a project without clear direction, focus, or adequate resources. Rev. Russ emphasizes that without a clearly defined aim, even the most gifted leaders and teams can end up spinning their wheels.Through practical examples and biblical insight, he challenges leaders in ministry, business, and life to clarify the “win,” align team strengths, and give direction that empowers people to thrive in their gifts.

When you think about '70s rock 'n' roll, few names bring to mind teenage rebellion and raw energy like Cherie Currie, the original lead singer of The Runaways. She was only 15 years old when she fronted one of the most groundbreaking all-girl rock bands of the era, making waves with her powerhouse voice, striking stage presence, and that iconic corset-and-chains outfit that became part of rock history.Cherie was born in California and grew up in the heart of the San Fernando Valley. Before she ever thought about fronting a rock band, she was just a music-obsessed teenager who idolized David Bowie. In fact, it was her love of Bowie's glam-rock style that shaped her own look and attitude. Cherie was already performing in small gigs around L.A. when Kim Fowley and Joan Jett came calling. They were putting together a tough, edgy, all-female rock band that would soon shake up the male-dominated music scene.In '75, Cherie joined The Runaways, alongside Joan Jett, Lita Ford, Sandy West, and Jackie Fox. She quickly became the band's lead singer, famous for belting out songs like “Cherry Bomb”, which became the group's signature anthem and is still celebrated as one of the defining punk-rock tracks of the ‘70s. Currie's onstage persona—provocative, fearless, and rebellious—made her a standout in the band and a poster child for teenage rock rebellion.The Runaways were groundbreaking. They weren't just a novelty “girl band”—they could really play. The girls toured the world and in Japan they were treated like superstars. But behind the scenes, things weren't always as glamorous. Tensions within the band, combined with the pressures of fame, the exploitation of young girls in the rock world, and substance abuse struggles, led to Cherie leaving The Runaways in '77—just two years after she'd joined.Life after The Runaways was a wild mix of ups and downs for Cherie Currie. She launched a solo music career, releasing the album Beauty's Only Skin Deep in '78 and later teaming up with her identical twin sister, Marie Currie, for the duet album Messin' with the Boys in '80. Cherie also explored acting. She starred alongside Jodie Foster in the cult classic film Foxes (1980) and appeared in other films throughout the ‘80s and ‘90s, including Parasite and Twilight Zone: The Movie.But Cherie didn't stop there. She reinvented herself yet again—as a chainsaw artist. In the 2000s, she became an award-winning chainsaw carver, creating intricate wooden sculptures that stunned critics and fans alike.In 2010, interest in her story skyrocketed with the release of The Runaways movie, starring Dakota Fanning as Cherie and Kristen Stewart as Joan Jett. The film reignited global attention for the band, cementing Cherie's legacy as a trailblazer for women in rock. Around the same time, she published her memoir Neon Angel: A Memoir of a Runaway, a raw, honest account of her life in and out of the band.She's continued to perform music into recent years, releasing the 2019 album Blvds of Splendor.Cherie Currie will always be remembered as the fierce blonde teenager who stepped onstage and screamed “Hello world, I'm your wild girl!” with The Runaways. She was part of a band that kicked open doors for future generations of female rockers—from Joan Jett's later success with The Blackhearts, to the riot grrrl movement, to today's women-led rock bands.Her story isn't just about teenage fame—it's about survival, reinvention, and proving that rock 'n' roll really can be forever.This week Cherie joins us to share it all.I'd love to hear if you enjoy this episode.

From their conception there was bad blood between Jacob, aka “Israel” and his brother Esau, aka “Edom.”  Tensions between their descendants continued after their death and run all the way through the Bible.  Obadiah picked up on this and prophesied of Edom's downfall.  While this part of the prophecy has come to pass, it stands as a modern message, warning us to guard against godlessness and pride which was the root of Edom's downfall.

Welcome to Christ Community's Online Service! In Acts 15, tension arises in the church over what's truly required for salvation. Some believers insisted that following the law was necessary, while others, like Paul and Barnabas, declared that salvation is found in Jesus alone. Out of this debate came clarity that still matters for us today: the gospel must be protected, and the gospel calls us to love and honor one another. For prayer and to stay connected, please visit: https://www.cccgreeley.org For Giving: https://www.cccgreeley.org/give/ Discussion Guide: https://cccgreeley.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2025-8-23-24-Group-Discussion-Questions.pdf College Students—We Missed You!

This series will lay the foundation for our upcoming exploration of Kingdom Tensions. Life in the Kingdom is full of tension—because when we say yes to Jesus, we step into conflict. We find ourselves in tension with our flesh, moving against the grain of the world, and standing opposed by the enemy himself. But tension isn't always bad—in fact, it's often what holds things together (like a shower curtain stretched between two points). It's within these sacred tensions that we discover how to remain faithful for the long haul.

Today, we’re bringing you the best from the KUOW Newsroom... The August primary election has been certified, meaning Sara Nelson and Dionne Foster are the two official candidates for Seattle’s 9th city council seats. Their strategies to address drug addiction are quite different. Canadians are continuing to feel upset with America’s most recent political actions. Being right on the Canadian border, businesses in Blaine Washington are really feeling the pain. And data centers are coming to Central Washington towns. With them comes an economic boost, but also skepticism about what the centers can actually deliver for residents and how much harm they are causing the environment.

The broadcast discusses two separate, but seemingly related, issues: financial struggles and political tensions. The first part focuses on an advertisement for Tax Relief Advocates (TRA), a company that helps individuals with their tax debt. The second part delves into a heated debate over "sanctuary cities," referencing a specific conflict between the Trump administration and Boston Mayor Michelle Wu. It highlights the opposing viewpoints on immigration and the role of local law enforcement, with one side arguing that sanctuary policies are a danger to public safety, and the other side defending them as a necessary measure for protecting immigrants and maintaining trust within communities. The monologue also makes a point to criticize what it sees as the hypocrisy of certain politicians and the media on this topic.

(Rediffusion) Madrid fait semblant de ne pas comprendre, si bien que la nouvelle présidente Claudia Sheinbaum a refusé d'inviter le roi d'Espagne pour son investiture à l'automne 2024… Pour revoir le passé d'un autre œil, le chemin sera long. Reportage à Mexico de notre correspondante Gwendolina Duval.   Campagne de désinformation prorusse en Hongrie Dans le sursaut européen en matière de défense et la solidarité européenne vis-à-vis de l'Ukraine, il y a une exception de taille, c'est la Hongrie. Le régime de Viktor Orban ne cache pas sa proximité avec le président russe Vladimir Poutine. Et pour s'assurer du soutien domestique, il mène une campagne de communication très sophistiquée et pro-russe, où se mêlent fausses informations, et des silences très choisis.

Got a question, comment, or just want to drop some encouragement? Send us a text.Ever find yourself locked in a heated argument with your partner over something that seems trivial—like whether your child can ride their bike in the street instead of on the sidewalk? These everyday parenting disagreements can quickly escalate, leaving you both frustrated and disconnected, despite agreeing on your broader parenting philosophy.Today we tackle these seemingly minor differences that create major tension. While many couples align on core values, discipline approaches, and long-term goals, it's often the day-to-day decisions where conflicts emerge. One parent feels strongly about saying "no" while the other sees no problem with "yes"—and suddenly you're in a standoff that feels much bigger than the issue at hand.Through our case example of Hunter and Ren disagreeing about bike riding boundaries, we demonstrate how these conflicts aren't really about rules, but about what feels safe, what feels risky, and what makes each parent anxious. We share our personal experiences too, from water safety concerns at a lake house to differing perspectives on outdoor risks while camping or hiking.The good news? We offer a practical three-step process to transform these moments from conflict to connection. First, understand how this issue became important to each of you—what past experiences or fears shape your perspective? Second, recognize what your partner is seeing from your communication style—are they feeling dismissed or controlled? Finally, identify where you can find common ground that addresses both of your underlying concerns.Remember, strong reactions signal importance, not irrationality. When your partner keeps pushing a point that seems minor to you, try responding with curiosity rather than dismissal. By approaching differences with genuine respect and working to find solutions that honor both perspectives, you'll strengthen your partnership and create more harmony in your parenting journey.Ready to transform how you handle parenting differences?

Three thousand riot police were put on standby after Friday was dubbed “anti-asylum day” by far-right organisers, with 14 protests scheduled nationwide outside of suspected asylum hotels.  Tensions are high but with Keir Starmer constantly boasting about cracking down on “illegal” migrants - is the Government simply fanning the flames of unrest? The New Statesman's Britain Editor Anoosh Chakelian has been speaking to locals and asylum seekers at asylum hotels. She joins Nish and Coco to discuss why they've become such a lightning rod and what else the Government could be doing. And Labour Minister Chris Bryant has had an unorthodox path into politics - from growing up in Franco's Spain to being ordained as an Anglican priest. He answers some tricky questions on the Palestine Action arrests and landlord MPs. And digging into the mailbag, Nish gets an education on audio porn.
