No, I'm not amused. Today's Trump vs Musk social media wrestling fiasco is one more example of how digital media is actually bemusing ourselves to death. Walter Lippmann, the brilliant but emotionally detached journalist who coined the term "stereotype," foresaw this nightmare a century ago. Lippmann's intellectual biographer Tom Arnold-Forster explains how Lippmann's theories about "manufactured consent" and the manipulation of public opinion by media barons anticipated everything from the Trump-Musk social media feuds to dehumanizing AI-generated content. Lippmann identified democracy's central paradox: we need informed citizens to self-govern, yet the modern world is too complex for anyone to fully understand. His 1919 warning is even truer today: "The present crisis of Western democracy is a crisis in journalism." Five Key Takeaways * Democracy's Impossible Paradox: Lippmann identified that modern democracy demands citizens make informed decisions about a world too complex for anyone—even experts—to fully understand. We're stuck needing public opinion to govern while being unable to form truly informed opinions.* The Stereotype Machine: Lippmann literally invented the modern concept of "stereotype" as a way information gets simplified and transmitted between people. He'd likely see AI as the ultimate "stereotype machine"—endlessly reproducing the most probable combinations rather than generating new insights.* Manufactured Consent Crisis: His core warning was that when consent-manufacturing becomes "unregulated private enterprise" (think Hearst then, Musk now), democracy itself is threatened. The solution isn't eliminating commercial media but professionalizing journalism within it.* Expertise Must Serve Democracy: Despite being labeled an elitist, Lippmann actually argued that expertise should ultimately be subject to democratic control. He attacked anti-democratic "experts" like eugenicist Lewis Terman as frauds.* Journalism = Democracy: Lippmann's most prescient insight: "The present crisis of Western democracy is in an exact sense a crisis in journalism." Today's democratic struggles are inseparable from our information crisis—fake news, social media manipulation, and the collapse of trusted news sources.Tom Arnold-Forster is the Kinder Career Development Fellow in Atlantic History at the University of Oxford's Rothermere American Institute.

* Check out the new Thinker's Tavern discussion series athttps://www.instituteforfemininemyth.org/thinkers-tavern  *This week's podcast looks at the figure of Hermaphroditus, son of Hermes (Mercury) and Aphrodite (Venus), and his encounter with the aggressive nymph Salmacis, her prayer turning them into a single being that is both male and female and neither at the same time. While Salmacis is often viewed as an aggressive woman attacking an innocent boy, an inscription at Salmacis' pool in Halicarnassus suggests a very different view of the myth. We explore the idea of the Hermaphrodite as representing the bonds of marriage and ideas about marriage, as well as its connection to Plato's myth of the proto-human in the Symposium. The articles referenced in the podcast were:Kelly, Peter.

https://youtu.be/_FFUS8tb-b4 Michael E. Gerber, author of The E-Myth Revisited and over 35 other books, is driven by a mission to transform the state of small business, entrepreneurship, and economic development worldwide. We explore Michael's origin story and the moment that sparked the E-Myth movement, including his revelation that most business owners don't understand their own businesses. He shares how his intuitive and soul-driven approach led to the creation of the first business operating system and the now-iconic principle of “working on your business, not in it.” Michael introduces his Eightfold Path Framework, built on the eight discrete personalities of an entrepreneur: The Dreamer, Thinker, Storyteller, Leader, Designer, Builder, Launcher, and Grower. We also discuss his Dreaming Room methodology, the Radical You 5-year entrepreneurial school, and how AI is enabling the creation of 199 vertical-market E-Myth books. --- Awaken Your Inner Entrepreneur with Michael E. Gerber Good day, dear listeners. So guess who I have here as my guest today. After five years, we finally got to the day when I can interview Michael E. Gerber, who is the author of the E-Myth Revisited, E-Myth Mastery and 35 other best-selling books that have sold over 5 million copies in 30 languages and 150 countries. Michael was the original mastermind behind the concept of the first business operating system back in 1986. And he coined the idea of Working On Your Business, Rather Than In Your Business, which idea touched at least 100 million entrepreneurs worldwide. So Michael is also currently the founder at age 88, almost 89. He is the founder and CEO of the Michael E. Gerber companies, owning programs including Gerber Works, Radical You, Become The One, and The Dreaming Room most recently, and he owns the rights to 35 E-Myth books. So Michael, without further ado, welcome to the Management Blueprint Podcast. I'm delighted to be here. Thank you, Steve. I'm so excited because really, I read your book back in the early 2000s. I got immediately smitten. I actually started a side business trying to implement your system without any training from you, which unfortunately was not successful. So I had to close down my side business, but we definitely implemented it in my own business. And I was just very enamored. I also got a dog-eared copy of E-Myth Mastery, which is like a big volume, and I kind of went through all the ideas there. And finally, to have you be a guest is a great honor, and it's a very exciting day. I'm delighted to be here. Thank you. So, Michael, I'm going to start with my favorite question, even though you are like a super guest here, but tell me about your personal “Why” and how it influenced your life and how it got you where you are at age 88, almost 89, still going strong, still being an entrepreneur. So, what was that “Why” that you had and have? Well, I have said it so many times, it's to transform the state of small business worldwide. To transform the state of small business worldwide. I can almost dance to it because that is what I've been working on all these years. And in the heart of that is to transform the state of entrepreneurship worldwide. And in the process of accomplishing each of those to transform the state of economic development worldwide. Because were I capable of doing the first in order to do the second, I would absolutely achieve that result, economic development worldwide.Share on X And within that resides the spirit of all that, but you know all about that. Well, I mean, I know as much as you've written down and as much as you told me, I definitely know that part. I don't know what's going on in your mind because you're still being creative. You're still developing programs, which is amazing to me. I like to be like you when I get to your age. It's definitely awesome. So tell me about the beginning. What prompted you to write the E-Myth?

Marc Hustvedt shares insights from helping to scale Mr. Beast to 350 million YouTube subscribers and building a global creator brand, revealing the unique combination of traits that separates extraordinary creators from everyone else.  Check out Contrarian Thinking and Codie Sanchez to learn more about Marc's current work helping people buy and grow small businesses.• Creator-led businesses eliminate the power imbalance found in traditional media• The most successful YouTube integrations feel natural and appeal to the global audience• Small, targeted audiences of 10,000 engaged followers can build lucrative businesses• The future of media belongs to individual creators who own their businesses• Work ethic and obsessive dedication to the craft set apart successful creators• Jimmy Donaldson (Mr. Beast) studied YouTube content for years before finding success• High appetite for risk and willingness to bet on yourself is critical• Single-minded focus on "making the best YouTube videos in the world" drove their strategy• The $3.5 million Squid Game recreation video was an inflection point for the brand• Traditional production methods create unnecessary friction for creatorsEver wonder what makes certain creators explode while others struggle to gain traction? Marc Hustvedt, former president of Mr. Beast, pulls back the curtain on how they built one of the most successful creator brands in history expanding into ventures like Feastables Chocolate and Mr. Beast Burger.What truly sets apart the 0.1% of creators from everyone else? Marc reveals it's a unique combination of traits: relentless work ethic, obsessive attention to detail, willingness to take massive risks, and laser-sharp focus on a singular mission. Jimmy Donaldson didn't just appear out of nowhere – he spent years making videos that barely got views, studying YouTube's ecosystem, and constantly iterating. The breakthrough came from understanding that success requires both quantity and quality, paired with the courage to bet everything on yourself repeatedly.  The $3.5 million Squid Game recreation video serves as a perfect case study of their approach. While traditional media might have stretched production over months of planning and bureaucracy, the Mr. Beast team compressed timelines dramatically. They secured one of the largest brand deals ever for a single YouTube video by creating a sense of FOMO around cultural moments. Most importantly, they eliminated the traditional production hierarchy: "We were both the studio and the network," Marc explains, allowing for nimble decision-making that put creative vision first.Marc is now bringing his digital expertise to Contrarian Thinking as their president, where he's exploring the intersection of education and creator economy. His observation? "You don't need a hundred million people to watch a video. If you've got the right 10,000 people, you can have a very lucrative business." This shift toward highly engaged, targeted communities represents the next evolution in digital content creation.  Listen now for insights on building digital businesses, recognizing talent, and creating content that captivates audiences in today's fragmented landscape.Marc Hustvedt: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marchustvedt/Marc was the President of Mr. Beast from 2021 to 2024.  After graduating from the University of Michigan, he co-founded Tubefilter and the Streamy Awards.Website: https://www.position2.com/podcast/Rajiv Parikh: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rajivparikh/Sandeep Parikh: https://www.instagram.com/sandeepparikh/Email us with any feedback for the show: spark@postion2.com

I welcome psychologist Jill Stoddard to explore how Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can help women navigate anxiety, stress, and the challenges of parenting with more significant presence and authenticity.• Understanding psychological flexibility as being present, being open to internal experiences, and making value-aligned choices.• Learning that values are how we appear in life—not feelings, outcomes, or others' behaviors.• Recognizing avoidance patterns: The Doer, The Hider, The Compulsive, The Thinker, and The Otherer.• Practicing mindful willingness through simple exercises like changing hand positions or breathing techniques.• Breaking the cycle of resistance with the mantra: "This is uncomfortable, but it's just a feeling. It is not dangerous; it is temporary, and I can handle it."• Distinguishing between acceptance of internal experiences (ACT) and radical acceptance of external reality (DBT).• Finding ways to apply ACT principles during challenging parenting moments with young children.Take the quiz to discover your avoidance pattern at jillstoddard.com/quizzes and explore Jill's books "Be Mighty" and "Impostor No More" for guided exercises on developing psychological flexibility.Be sure to check out Jill's "Two-Minute Tips" on Substack.Support the showBegin Your Heartlifter's Journey: Visit and subscribe to Heartlift Central on Substack.

What if your brain is less like a truth detector and more like a belief-confirming machine? In this episode, we dive into one of Robert Anton Wilson's most potent mind-bombs: the Thinker-Prover dynamic from Prometheus Rising.Your Thinker forms beliefs. Your Prover goes out and finds the evidence. Whatever you believe—threat or magic, doom or synchronicity—your Prover will prove it. That's not just metaphor; it's the engine behind your reality tunnel.We explore:The brain as a bio-computer with confirmation biasReality tunnels and how they're builtBelief as a tool—not a truthHow to practice belief engineering as a path to freedomThis isn't about being right—it's about being free. About wielding belief like a magician, not wearing it like a leash. Listen now and install a new lens. Reality's more malleable than you think.

Piper's Picture Power by Linda Zeigler Amazon.com Piper loves to think and imagine as she plays and learns. She wonders just HOW this process happens. Her new friend, The Thinker, helps her realize she can choose to make pictures in her head to remember, imagine, to know what she knows, to manage emotions, and to make plans for life. She shares what she learns from The Thinker to help friends and family make personal use of mental pictures. She even asks questions of the reader to encourage their use of individual imaging. Using imaging intentionally expands and deepens thinking; it becomes a SUPERPOWER for Piper and her friends!

Breaking Free From the All-or-Nothing Mindset That's Slowing Your Business Growth If you're anything like me, you've probably fallen into the trap of seeing your business in black and white – either it's thriving or failing, and there's nothing in between! In this episode, I share my personal wake-up call (spoiler: it involves a disastrous 5K run) that revealed how my all-or-nothing mindset was holding me back in business and life. Your brain naturally craves certainty (science confirms this!), but this extreme thinking creates unnecessary pressure and keeps you stuck in perfectionism, waiting for conditions that might never come. The truth is, growth happens in the messy middle where you're taking imperfect action, collecting data, and making strategic pivots.  In this episode, you'll learn practical frameworks to shift out of extreme thinking patterns that are stalling your growth. I'll show you how to reframe missed goals as data collection opportunities, take decisive action, and embrace "phase one" thinking that gets you moving forward. Plus, I share how my own mindset shifts led to launching my Made to Scale Mastermind and Milly Club – opportunities I would have missed if I'd stayed stuck in my all-or-nothing thinking. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Mental Flexibility Is Your Superpower – Obstacles don't mean stop, they mean pivot. When launches don't hit goals or team members struggle, resist seeing it as failure and instead look for the adjustments and data that will fuel your next success. 2️⃣ Take Imperfect Action Now – Perfectionism is just procrastination in disguise. Instead of waiting for perfect systems or perfect timing, launch the simplified version, hire before you feel "ready," and treat everything as a data collection opportunity. 3️⃣ Ask Better Questions When You Feel Stuck – When the urge to quit feels overwhelming (which is normal!), ask yourself: "If quitting wasn't an option, what would I do next?" Then take that step, no matter how small, to maintain momentum.

This week we discussed the thought of one of 20th-century Marxism's socialist opponents, Tomáš Masaryk. Masaryk was reviled by Czech communists until they appropriated him and he was an opponent of capitalism until the champions of capitalism did the same. He was a social democrat with an ethical and Christian-humanist vision of socialism that inspired the Prague Spring but was later coopted by the opponents of the working class and human liberation. A State without Suicidehttps://www.commonwealmagazine.org/state-without-suicide Betts, R.

NYT columnist and sociologist Tressie McMillan Cottom and scholar Eddie Glaude Jr. reflect on the struggle for civil rights and what it means to celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on the same day that President Donald Trump is sworn into office. "Perhaps the juxtaposition of seeing Donald Trump preside over the official state memorialization of Martin Luther King will remind us of our responsibility to remembering King as he actually was ... as he was a philosopher, an organizer of the people," Cottom says.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Dr. Mark Epstein is a psychiatrist in private practice in New York City, and is the author of a number of books about the interface of Buddhism and psychotherapy, including Thoughts without a Thinker, Going to Pieces without Falling Apart, Going on Being, Open to Desire, Psychotherapy without the Self, The Trauma of Everyday Life and Advice Not Given: A Guide to Getting Over Yourself, and The Zen of Therapy: Uncovering a Hidden Kindness in Life. He received his undergraduate and medical degrees from Harvard University. He has been a student of vipassana meditation since 1974.Joseph Goldstein is a cofounder of the Insight Meditation Society and the Barre Center for Buddhist Studies, both in Barre, Massachusetts. He is the author of Mindfulness: A Practical Guide to Awakening, A Heart Full of Peace, One Dharma: The Emerging Western Buddhism, Insight Meditation and The Experience of Insight: A Simple and Direct Guide to Buddhist Meditation. Joseph has studied and practiced meditation since 1967 under the guidance of eminent teachers from India, Burma, and Tibet and he leads Insight Meditation retreats around the world.In this episode we talk about:The three month solo silent meditation retreat Joseph had just finishedHow to not suffer in the face of unwanted experiences Three exercises for slowing downPragmatic applications of retreat practice for life in the real world How to see outside yourselfHow Mark came to Buddhism 50 years agoThe relationship between Buddhism and psychotherapy The Buddhist concept of the two levels of reality And a guided meditation from a surprise guestRelated Episodes:Nirvana | Joseph GoldsteinDr. Mark Epstein On: How To Transform Your Neuroses Into “Little Shmoos”I Just Did A 10-Day Silent Meditation Retreat With Joseph Goldstein.

Here on the LDS Mission Podcast, Episode 180 - Encouraging and Recognizing Others In this episode, I dive into the importance of encouraging and recognizing others in meaningful ways. As the LDS mission coach, I've noticed that mission culture often focuses heavily on goal accomplishment and outward recognition. However, not all missionaries thrive in this environment - some find it uncomfortable or pressuring. I share three categories of recognition that people may value: being known for their thoughts and perspectives (the "thinkers"), being appreciated for their deep feelings and empathy (the "feelers"), and being acknowledged for their actions and productivity (the "doers"). I encourage listeners to reflect on which category resonates most with them, and to consider how they can recognize the unique gifts of the people in their lives. Finally, I challenge listeners to move beyond superficial social media comments about appearance, and instead focus on affirming the inherent worth and humanity of others. By recognizing people for who they are, not just what they do, we can build more authentic and uplifting relationships. I believe this approach aligns with the example of Jesus Christ, who simply declared "I Am" - recognizing the profound value in each person's existence. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did.

Thinking is indispensable — but thinking is also dangerous. How can we use our minds to glorify God rather than puffing up ourselves?
