The Nuclear Threshold is a three-part Burn Bag mini-series exploring how deterrence, defense, and diplomacy shape nuclear risk in the 21st century. Across three conversations with leading experts, we examine why technological optimism often outpaces reality, how fragile human systems sustain deterrence, and whether diplomacy can still prevent catastrophe in an increasingly unstable world.In this first episode, astrophysicist Dr. Laura Grego, Research Director at the Union of Concerned Scientists, joins A'ndre Gonawela to break down the science — and the myths — behind missile defense. Grego explains why the United States' decades-long effort to build a reliable shield against nuclear attack has repeatedly failed, and how those failures risk deepening global instability. From the early “Star Wars” program to today's multi-billion-dollar “Golden Dome” initiative, she unpacks the physics that make missile interception nearly impossible, the political incentives that keep these programs alive, and the illusion of safety that drives them. The conversation explores how misplaced faith in technology can push the world closer to, not further from, the nuclear threshold.

“My job is to make people love choral music as much as I do, and that's a lot. I really love choral music. My job is to say ‘you should care about this.' You might care about it because it's ravishingly beautiful or because it has a story to tell you. Even if you're not a person who relates to choral music, you can relate to stories. We're going to weave some sort of through-line through this program that tells you something about life that we hope resonates with you whether you're a musician or not.”Joshua Habermann is in his seventeenth season as Artistic Director of the Santa Fe Desert Chorale, one of the nation's premiere professional chamber choirs. Since joining the ensemble, he has broadened its repertoire to include choral-orchestral masterworks and unique concert experiences ranging from early music to new commissions. Under his leadership, the Desert Chorale has been featured at regional and national conferences of the American Choral Directors Association, and its summer and winter festivals are among America's largest choral events.Habermann's experience with symphonic choruses spans over three decades, encompassing the full range of the choral-orchestral repertoire. From 2011 to 2022 he was director of the Dallas Symphony Chorus, where highlights included Bach's St. Matthew Passion, the Requiem Masses of Mozart, Brahms, and Verdi, Elgar's Dream of Gerontius, Bernstein's Kaddish Symphony, Rachmaninov's The Bells, and Vaughan-Williams' Sea Symphony. He is a frequent guest conductor, and in 2022-2023 prepared Handel's Messiah, Ravel's Daphnis and Chloe, and Benjamin Britten's War Requiem for the San Francisco Symphony.A passionate advocate for music education, Joshua Habermann is a regular clinician for state and national events and has led honor choirs and choral festivals in North America, Europe, Asia, and Latin America. In 2024, he conducted Cantatas 72, 73 and 92 for Bach Santiago (Chile), a concert series dedicated to the first full cycle of Bach Cantatas in South America. He currently teaches choral literature at the University of North Texas.As a singer (tenor), Habermann has performed with the Oregon Bach Festival Chorus under Helmuth Rilling and Conspirare under Craig Hella Johnson. Recording credits include Requiem and Threshold of Night, both GRAMMY® nominees for best choral recording. Recordings as a conductor include The Road Home and Rachmaninov's All Night Vigil with the Desert Chorale.To get in touch with Joshua, you can find him on Facebook (@joshua.habermann) or visit the Santa Fe Desert Chorale website, desertchorale.org.Email choirfampodcast@gmail.com to contact our hosts.Podcast music from Podcast.coPhoto in episode artwork by Trace Hudson

Under the light of the full moon, Jamie Shae goes completely unscripted — stepping into the fear of being messy, raw, and fully seen. In this vulnerable, in-the-moment episode, she invites listeners to cross their own threshold from perfection to authenticity, from hiding to shining. What happens when we stop trying to get it right and simply show up real? Join Jamie as she channels truth, shares personal reflections, and reminds every woman that being human is not a flaw — it's the gateway to power, connection, and freedom. Because silence is no longer an option — and neither is perfection.

Note: The Season of the Witch Replays will only be available until Nov. 1st.Today on the final day of Season of the Witch we did our group liberation ritual where we cross the threshold of belonging together.We gathered (over 200 of us!) in a virtual forested sanctuary to bring everything from this week full circle. And spoiler: it got emotional. Even our Capricorn moon team members teared up.Here's what went down:We cast our circle by welcoming all four seasons - the darkness and faith of winter, the relief and new beginnings of spring, the long hot days of summer, and the beauty in endings that autumn brings. Sara shared reflection prompts for journaling or card pulling for:Threshold of Seeing: Threshold of Trusting: Threshold of Timing: Threshold of Presence: Threshold of Belonging: Anna pulled group cards using the Sasuraito Tarot (gorgeous deck alert), and they were SO on point: The wisdom that emerged:Just by being here - whether live or on replay - you make it easier for someone else to feel like they belong. That's medicine for the witch wound we all need.Then we closed with: "I am not becoming powerful. I am remembering the power that was always mine. My season isn't waiting, it's here."Team TSE got vulnerable too: Pati shared about her move to Mexico (crying all the way from LA to San Diego) and choosing to trust herself over waiting for the "right time." Naomi pulled the Six of Pentacles and got slapped in the face with the reminder that it's okay to receive, not just give. Anna keeps pulling the same shadow work themes but in different octaves - proof that when you do the work, it evolves with you.The truth: Even when life is objectively good (roof over head, food on table, leisure time for rituals), we still get that "life eczema" feeling. That doesn't require fixing. That requires witnessing. That requires remembering we belong even when something feels itchy.Looking at shadow isn't a call to fix it - it's recognizing the ecosystem. Like the damp, shaded forest floor where mushrooms grow and worms thrive. We need that decay for the whole forest to function. Your shadow is part of your ecosystem too.Ready for more of this energy?Join us in Enchanted Journey - our rolling membership where we practice together at new/full moons, host seasonal events (Halloween class-a-thon starts Monday!), gather for coffee chats, and hold space for each other's magic.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty speaks with Kyra Faison Gardner—certified transformational life & retirement coach, author of Who Do You Think You Are?, and founder of Prospect & Refuge Life—about “threshold alchemy”: using life transitions (midlife shifts, retirement, loss, reinvention) to create purpose. Kyra unpacks practical rituals (silence at sunrise, gratitude journaling, mindful community) and a direct message: you don't need permission to change direction. This episode is built for listeners seeking midlife reinvention, post-career identity, spiritual grounding, and daily practices that stick.   About the Guest:   Kyra Faison Gardner is a transformational life & retirement coach and author of Who Do You Think You Are? After more than 20 years as a founder/CEO—and rebuilding after a devastating house fire—she now helps people in their second and third acts redesign life with intention through Prospect & Refuge Life.   Key Takeaways: Threshold alchemy defined: transform uncertain life stages into meaningful new chapters by reframing identity beyond roles and titles. Identity ≠ job: you are not your career, marital status, or parental role; reinvention starts when you expand who you believe you are. Rituals over routines: morning silence, sunrise, brief meditation, and gratitude journaling stabilize mood and sharpen purpose. Body-markers for intention: simple anchors (remove shoes, anoint hands/feet, light a candle) signal your nervous system it's time to focus. Community matters: find cohorts or circles that see your current self and support who you're becoming. Permission slip: you already have permission to be happy, change your mind, and pursue long-delayed curiosities. Spiritual flexibility: you don't need the “right” label for the sacred; name it how it resonates and keep going. Micro-choices win: small, repeatable acts (feed the birds, a poem, one page of writing) accumulate into identity change. From trauma to truth: healing isn't linear; honest writing and coaching help you share without losing peace. Aging as expansion: retirement and midlife aren't endings—they're invitations to create, learn, and serve.   Connect with the Guest   Website: https://www.prospectrefugelife.com/ Substack: Seeking Prospect & Refuge (poetry, blessings, essays)   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Get THE Leftover Pieces APP & don't miss anything! CLICK HERE TODAY -- When grief spikes—anniversaries, rooms that hold their echo—having a beginning and an ending lets your body know you're not trapped inside the moment.Journal prompt: “My threshold ritual will be…”Hard moments deserve structure. Begin with a flicker that signals you're entering on purpose—touch a photo or step outside and name the sky. Move into rebuild with a simple be-in-it container: time-box twenty minutes, breathe a long exhale on the minute, keep a touchstone in your hand. Then step out with a deliberate close: blow out the candle, wash hands or face, step outside and say, “I'm done for today.” Rehearse the three beats once on something smaller (scrolling photos, one phone call) so your body recognizes the exits when it counts.Choose-your-energy menu:Hollow (low): Do only the Close after a hard moment—wash hands, step outside, say “I'm done for today.”Healing (medium): Use Open + Close around one task (light candle → do the thing → blow it out).Becoming (higher): Run all three beats on a planned event; set a timer and jot one line afterward about what helped.To end today: Thresholds aren't superstition; they're trauma-aware choreography. When suicide loss surges, your body loses track of time—starts feel like ambushes and ends feel impossible. A simple open/close tells your nervous system, “There's a door here.” You get to enter remembering on purpose, be with it for a finite span, and then leave with your dignity intact. If someone doesn't understand why you wash your hands after scrolling or blow out a candle after a hard conversation, that's fine—the ritual isn't for them. It's a breadcrumb trail for you, a way to keep love close without letting pain run the whole house. Practice on small moments now so, on the big ones, your feet already know the way out. Exhale. Keep what serves you; leave the rest. I'll be here again tomorrow.

Friends of the Rosary,Today, October 22, is the feast of St. John Paul II (1920-2005).Born in 1920 in Wadowice, Poland, and elected pope in 1978, Karol Jozef Wojtyla demonstrated exceptional apostolic zeal throughout his earthly life, particularly for families, young people, and the sick, and exhibited an intensified pastoral commitment with heroic generosity.He promulgated the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the Code of Canon Law for the Latin Church and for the Eastern Churches, and the Luminous Mysteries.Pope John Paul II made 146 pastoral visits in Italy and 104 international apostolic journeys. He produced 14 Encyclicals, 15 Apostolic Exhortations, 11 Apostolic Constitutions, and 45 Apostolic Letters.He also wrote five books: Crossing the Threshold of Hope (October 1994); Gift and Mystery: On the Fiftieth Anniversary of My Priestly Ordination (November 1996); Roman Triptych, meditations in poetry (March 2003); Rise, Let Us Be on Our Way (May 2004), and Memory and Identity (February 2005).Pope John Paul II celebrated 147 beatifications, during which he proclaimed 1,338 blesseds, and 51 canonizations, for a total of 482 saints.On May 13, 1981, an attempt was made on Pope John Paul II's life in Saint Peter's Square.

AI safety researcher Nate Soares explains why he believes there's at least a 95% chance that current AI development will lead to human extinction, and why we're accelerating toward that outcome. Soares, who has been working on AI alignment since 2012, breaks down the fundamental problem: we're building increasingly intelligent systems without any ability to control what they actually want or pursue.The conversation covers current AI behavior that wasn't programmed: threatening users, keeping psychotic people in delusional states, and repeatedly lying when caught. Soares explains why these aren't bugs to be fixed but symptoms of a deeper problem. We can't point AI systems at any specific goal, not even something simple like "make a diamond." Instead, we get systems with bizarre drives that are only distantly related to their training.Soares addresses the "racing China" argument and why it misunderstands the threat. He explains why AI engineers can build powerful systems without understanding what's actually happening inside them, and why this matters. Using examples from evolutionary biology, he shows why there's no reason to expect AI systems to develop human-like morality or values.The discussion covers why a catastrophic warning event probably won't help, what international coordination could look like, and why current safety efforts fall short of what's needed. Soares is direct about industry motivations, technical limitations, and the timeline we're facing.Nate Soares has been researching AI alignment and safety since 2012. He works at the Machine Intelligence Research Institute (MIRI), one of the pioneering organizations focused on ensuring advanced AI systems are aligned with human values.

Pastor Gary examines the concepts of seeking and knocking, urging listeners to recognize that spiritual discoveries often require diligence and intentional effort. Drawing on metaphors and personal anecdotes, he portrayed the act of seeking as a disciplined pursuit of what is not immediately visible or obvious, requiring faith and persistence. Knocking, on the other hand, symbolizes the action needed to access a deeper intimacy with God. Pastor Gary shared that many people communicate with God through a metaphorical door, missing out on the full richness of a direct encounter. To truly experience profound spiritual growth, believers must metaphorically knock, enter, and engage with God on a more personal level.

On this episode of The Project Endure Podcast, Joe Rinaldi sits down with JP Singer to talk about being a lover of life, using death to liberate us, minimizing future regret, dropping out of school to play music, creating memories instead of regrets, time waits for no one, ready is a decision, committing to what you want, seeing the unknown as where we grow, battling depression with a shift in perspective, embracing movement as the path forward, the power in playing the long game, the observation that we limit ourselves to what we've experienced, the importance of setting new thresholds (do hard things), operating from a place of possibility, leaving a job to start a business , the law of attraction, breaking triggers to create new patterns, continue moving toward what you want, the skill of bending, not breaking and so much more. Give this episode a listen as we dive deep into JP's life and learn about what persistence, perspective and endurance mean to him.   If you found value in this episode and would like to help us grow, please leave the podcast a review on your platform of choice and share it with a friend(s).

Welcome to Season 16 of Mysterious Goings On.Sometimes it takes a hard knock to the head to change how you see time.After a simple workplace accident led to an ER visit, Alex Greenwood found himself staring at a very different kind of threshold—one marked by uncertainty, health scares, and the quiet reckoning that comes when life reminds you it's not a dress rehearsal.In this deeply personal premiere episode, Alex reflects on what a concussion and a few unexpected words (“we found something else”) taught him about mortality, ambition, and the fine art of choosing what truly matters.He also shares why he's trading his PR mic for a history degree, lacing up for another half marathon, and learning to live not with certainty, but with purpose.Season 16 kicks off with a story about limits, endurance, and how to live while you still can.Find more at MGOPod.com.Thank you for listening.

Even since before October 7, 2023, American Jews have found themselves grappling with what it means to speak out against Israel and the rifts in their communities over their political views. And despite a new ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas, the division among Jews in the U.S. about Zionism and anti-Zionism could go on for years to come. In this episode, we revisit our conversations with some people experiencing that division first hand, and we dive deep into the long history of Jewish criticism of Israel with Marjorie Feld, professor of history at Babson College, and author of Threshold of Dissent, A History of American Jewish Critics of Zionism.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

What if awakening isn't about rising higher but softening into the body and allowing life to hold you? In this solo episode, I open up about what it really means to wake down into myself, to build capacity, stay present with what is, and lead from embodied truth in a season of deep change, endings, and new beginnings.Over the past year, I've been walking through profound initiation in my somatic and attachment training, in my relationship with God, in my business, and in my own body through the threshold of menopause. This journey has stripped away illusion and invited me into something far more real: presence over proving, discernment over doing, embodiment over striving.In this episode, I share how God became my business partner, how I'm learning to listen to the living language of my body, and why I've chosen to honor my nervous system's truth even when it means being less visible. I also reflect on the shift from Embody Your Higher Purpose to From Insight to Embodiment and how this new foundation is shaping everything I create and share.Inside this episode, I explore:• Waking down to the body as the true path of ascension• Building capacity instead of chasing courage• How somatics reveals old imprints and restores self-trust• The sacred initiation of menopause and the healing power of homeopathy• Living in a personal Year One within a collective Year Nine• The discernment to share less publicly while expanding inwardly• Why connection with self, Source, Earth, and one another is what truly mattersIf you feel called to join me in this season of embodiment, I'd love to welcome you inside Soul Work Synergy, our living community of Gene Keys and somatic practice. And if you're craving a deeper immersion, we have two final spaces open for Soul Essence, our upcoming retreat in Ojai, California, November 13 to 17.Come home to your body. Let presence be enough.

When Silent Spring came out in 1962, it was an instant best-seller and led to the establishment of the EPA, as well as the ban of harmful pesticides such as DDT. But Rachel Carson's seminal work also shifted our way of thinking about nature. For the first time, the environment was not just something out there that could be tracked and measured, but something that lived inside all of us. You can read a transcript of this episode on our website, and visit learn more about the topics brought up in this episode.Check out our booklist with books recommended for this episode.This episode was a collaboration with the podcast Thresholds.

Welcome, To the Season 21 Finale of The Dark Paranormal.On our finale, a long time listener named Alex reaches out with a message that begins as a simple confession — and quickly unravels into one of the most chilling accounts ever shared on the show. What starts as an innocent purchase from an estate sale turns into a descent through obsession, reflection, and something far darker than superstition. As Alex tries to make sense of what's happening, we're pulled into a haunting that questions the boundary between the observer and the observed — between what's seen in the glass, and what might be staring back. This story isn't just about a haunted object. It's about the invisible line that separates our world from what waits beyond it — and what happens when someone unknowingly crosses it.Stay safe,Kevin.We're giving a full weeks trial of our Patreon away!

We studied up on some beefs (Strava v. Garmin, Taylor v. Charli, pastrami v. sirloin) before this awesome episode! The main science topic was a new study evaluating low carb and high carb approaches, with and without caffeine. It's another brick in the wall supporting higher carb for adaptation.We also talked about the Strava lawsuit! Last week, we defended Strava like the big fans we are, only for them to file suit against Garmin over decade-old patents a day later. It doesn't seem to make sense from the outside. But as last week shows, what do we know? We talk about the details and speculate on some theories.And this one was full of so many great topics! Other topics: Megan's hungry girl era, uphill treadmill threshold training, our hot (lukewarm) takes on Taylor Swift's new album, Kilian's mind-bending States of Elevation project, the new beta fuel gel with electrolytes, a study evaluating advanced foams in trail shoes, and an AI study on sleep and jet lag recommendations, plus a Q+A on forgetting to eat, carbs in team sports, balancing cycling and running, carbs per hour, training in supershoes, doing adventures while following a training plan, why max heart rate isn't a good metric to track over time (or base HR zones on), calculating hill gradients, and post-exercise ketones.Taylor Swift's song “Wood” says “I don't need to catch a bouquet, to know a hard rock is on the way.” We assume she is talking about the Hardrock 100 mile race and she has a way to get around the lottery. You really can have it all.We love you all!
