"The Hidden Scripts Controlling Your Life – And How to Take Them Back" What if the way you parent, sell, lead, or even love… isn't really you? In this episode, Jeff Bloomfield is joined by Chase Hughes—former military interrogation trainer turned behavioral profiling expert—who reveals how your subconscious has been running scripts written when you were 8 years old. These hidden programs, designed for survival, are still dictating your daily decisions—unless you learn to rewrite them. Chase has trained Navy SEALs, Fortune 500 executives, and intelligence agencies on how to read, decode, and influence behavior ethically. From cult recruiters to AI that detects caregiver intent, Chase has seen—and built—it all. This conversation isn't just mind-opening. It's mind-reclaiming. If you've ever: walked away from a conversation, wondering why you said yes felt manipulated by media, leadership, or even your own emotions wanted to become more influential without being manipulative ...then this episode is your playbook. Chase reveals the tools used by cult recruiters, elite interrogators, and behavioral AI—and flips them for ethical everyday use. From leadership to parenting to sales, this episode is a masterclass in reclaiming your mental autonomy and becoming unhackable. Scripts Run You—Until You Rewrite Them Most adults live on autopilot, following behavioral programs formed between ages 2–12. Focus → Authority → Tribe → Emotion (F.A.T.E.) This 4-step behavioral model explains why people obey, comply, or conform—even against their own interests. Authority Is Internal, Not Hierarchical Real influence doesn't come from titles. It comes from confidence, discipline, leadership, gratitude, and joy. Tribalism Is Natural—and Dangerous Belonging keeps us alive. But when weaponized, it becomes a tool of division and manipulation. Micro-Tribes Shape Macro Decisions Social media is training us to mistake attention for connection and pleasure for happiness. You're More Suggestible Than You Think From cult recruiters to Kirby vacuum sales reps, Chase reveals how identity agreements are subtly formed—and exploited. Negative Dissociation = Identity Hack Labeling others (“those sheep”) makes you unconsciously adopt the opposite identity. It's how cults recruit—and how sales are made. AI Can Detect Intent in Caregivers Chase's latest work uses behavioral coding and neuroscience to teach AI how to detect malintent in caregivers with 98.4% accuracy. Novelty Creates Focus. Authority Seals Influence. The brain responds to the perception of authority—lab coats, titles, or confidence can all hijack trust. Ethical Persuasion Starts With Intent If someone could peek inside your mind and see your true motives—would they still say yes? 00:00 – Military roots, neuroscience passion, and Jeff's “Junk in the Brain Trunk” 06:00 – From high school failure to Navy to bestselling author 14:00 – Why childhood scripts control your adult life 22:00 – Tribalism and the dangers of digital identity traps 30:00 – Obedience: The terrifying truth behind the Milgram experiment 36:00 – The F.A.T.E. model and how behavior is truly shaped 44:00 – Cult recruiters and identity agreements explained 49:00 – Training AI for suicide hotlines and caregiver risk 53:00 – YouTube's Behavior Panel & Dr. Phil's surprising email 57:00 – The PsyOp Pandemic & why Chase's work exploded 59:00 – Real connection in an AI-generated world 1:00:00 – Final thoughts & where to find Chase's tools

Send us a textNarratives and identity fundamentally shape our political beliefs more than facts or reason. The stories we tell ourselves matter deeply in how we form our worldviews and interpret reality.• The "stolen election" narrative caught on not because of evidence but because it reinforced existing identity frameworks• Political tribalism works similarly to religious adherence - both use narratives to create belonging and define outsiders• Biblical stories like Joshua's conquest of Canaan serve contemporary political purposes regardless of historical accuracy• Mary Magdalene's portrayal evolved from Jesus's most trusted apostle to reformed prostitute as institutional church power grew• AI systems like Grok, ChatGPT and others reflect their creators' goals and can shape perception in targeted ways• Media sources reinforce tribal identities rather than attempting to persuade those on the opposite side• Bipartisanship on issues like immigration fails because performative opposition serves identity needs better than pragmatic solutionsAmerica's political division continues to worsen as we increasingly view those with different political orientations as enemies rather than fellow citizens with different perspectives. We need to restore humanity to our political discourse before tribalism tears the country apart.Follow Noah Kennedy athttps://noahkennedy.net/His bookhttps://www.amazon.com/Industrialization-Intelligence-Mind-Machine-Modern/dp/0044403453/ref=sr_1_1?sr=8-1Check these sources out1440Ground NewsNew PaperAll SidesSupport the showFollow your host atYouTube and Rumble for video contenthttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUxk1oJBVw-IAZTqChH70aghttps://rumble.com/c/c-4236474Facebook to receive updateshttps://www.facebook.com/EliasEllusion/Twitter (yes, I refuse to call it X)https://x.com/politicallyht LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/eliasmarty/

When Denver, Colorado Mayor Mike Johnston isn't sparring with congressional Republicans over immigration (and being threatened with jail time), he's pushing his city to eliminate homelessness, continuing his crusade for high-quality, affordable education and inspiring Denverites to give five hours of volunteer service each month. “I love the Give5 Mile High program,” said Citizen co-founder Larry Platt. “It's kind of the answer to Trumpism, right? All of us coming together in common purpose?” On this episode of How To Really Run A City, former Mayor Michael Nutter and former Mayor Kasim Reed, with Platt, join Mayor Johnston to dissect the initiatives that are making Denver a prosperous and communitarian city for all its citizens. “What I try to do is bind people,” Johnston says. “I bind together people that are broken. I bind together people who have been pulled apart from each other. I feel like this is the work mayors are called to do.” “And that's why we do this podcast,” Reed says. “It is so important for people who care about this country to hear stories like yours.” Join us for an energizing conversation about everyday citizens rising to meet the expectations of their city and charting a path out of the tribalism that grips the nation.

AP, Blackk GMS, and BinkiBianca get right to Corey Holcomb going in on GMS and the "phone call" from years ago. GMS had a live earlier in the day where he played the call since it keeps getting brought up and he gave the full context. Kraig Smith aka Kraig Facts told some jokes that got Matt Barnes in his feelings. Stephen Jackson decided to jump in as well. What's with this lightskin on lightskin crime?

Andrew Heaton is the author of the new book Tribalism Is Dumb and the host of The Political Orphanage podcast. He sits down with Paul to unpack where tribalism comes from, how it is tearing us apart, and how we might fix it. With wit, warmth, and some surprisingly deep evolutionary psychology, Andrew explains how our ancient brains are wired to seek belonging—even if that means choosing teams over Truth. They cover everything from Dunbar's number to the loneliness epidemic, from the comedy club to Capitol Hilll, and why political identity has become a poor substitute for real community. Whether you're center-left, center-right, or just tired of the noise, this conversation offers a refreshing dose of nuance, laughs, and insight into how we got here and where we could go. If you've ever felt politically homeless—or curious why shouting on Twitter feels like the new religion, this conversation is for you! Don't miss the part where Andrew suggests that Paul change the name of his podcast to “Drinking Liberal Tears with Paul.” (It's not going to happen, but just think of how popular it would be if we did!)

We don't necessarily talk about the countryside on this podcast as much as we used to or should do, maybe. You, the listeners, now send in questions for us to conversate around. We don't see the questions until we press record, and we always try to spin it back to the environment in some way.In this episode we have two guests in the listener's chair, the first guests in a long while, or should we say chairs? One returning guest, and one podcast newbie, those being Suzi Darrington, and Alex Kauffmann.Jess, from Bishop's Tatchbrook, Warwickshire, England asks the first question  - “Can we trust our memories, or do they alter our perception of reality in the moment and over time?”Stuart kicks off with two oldies, two newbies—this'll be fun!. He suspects age might split opinions. Suzi, the memory maestro, says perception's shaped by memories but isn't totally unreliable (even if your brain sometimes edits like a bad film director). Stuart wonders if we can trust memories at all. Alex chimes in: nostalgia is basically Photoshop for the past. William notes childhood memories are fuzzy, recent ones clearer—but we all cherry-pick. They all agree: memory messes with reality, but it's still useful. Final takeaway? Use your warped recollections to fuel eco-action. Just don't trust them to find your lost keys.Unity, from Paddock Wood, Kent, England sets todays second question  - “What role does genetics play in the debate between free will and determinism?”Suzi wonders if we're just meat robots running on genetic Wi-Fi. Alex compares determinism to infinity—huge, mysterious, and not great dinner party material. William shrugs: He acts like he has free will, even if he's just a well-dressed algorithm.Stuart brings up Zimbabwe's hyperinflation to prove some things are just too bonkers to grasp. Suzi asks: if we're coded, can we still be blamed for binge-watching reality TV? Tribalism and cognitive dissonance get a shoutout—because ignoring facts is basically a hobby. Alex muses that evolution is slow genetic editing. William says we're built to adapt, even to climate chaos. Final takeaway? Whether you're free or pre-programmed, use your mysterious powers for good—especially for the planet.What do you make of this discussion? Do you have a question that you'd like us to discuss?

Who should you trust in the media? To find the answer, we tell the story of standup comedian Jimmy Dore – a man who has learned to question every narrative put out by the legacy media. Many conservatives may think he is not from their “team.” But Jimmy’s story teaches us that maybe we are forming tribes around the wrong set of beliefs.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Frank & Peggy Pittenger from South Bound Brook, NJ. Thank you for your partnership with us through Project23. Your commitment is helping deliver God's Word with clarity and conviction. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 9:38-41: John said to him, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we tried to stop him, because he was not following us.” But Jesus said, “Do not stop him, for no one who does a mighty work in my name will be able soon afterward to speak evil of me. For the one who is not against us is for us. For truly, I say to you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ will by no means lose his reward.” — Mark 9:38–41 On this July 4th, we celebrate freedom. But as followers of Christ, we know there's greater freedom—a freedom not won by force but by grace. Today's text challenges us to think beyond our own independence and toward interdependence within the body of Christ. John comes to Jesus with a complaint. “Someone outside our circle is casting out demons in your name. Let's shut him down.” And Why? “Because he is not following us.” There it is. Not Jesus. Us. This wasn't a case of false teaching—it was spiritual tribalism. A turf war. And Jesus rebukes it. “Don't stop him… the one who is not against us is for us.” Jesus is widening their perspective. Kingdom work doesn't always come through your group, your denomination, or your favorite leader. The Spirit of God is not limited to our preferred lanes. That said, Scripture is clear—not every spiritual-looking person is worth following. Some use Jesus' name without his authority. And we must test fruit, not just flash (see Matthew 7:15–23). But that's not the situation here. This was real fruit. Real ministry. Just outside the disciples' bubble. Jesus reminds them: “Even a cup of water given in my name won't go unrewarded.” That's how far God's grace and reward go. Even the smallest act, if done for Christ, is noticed and honored. So here's the question: Are you more loyal to your camp than you are to Christ? Don't let your spiritual pride become a spiritual roadblock. Don't gatekeep the kingdom. Celebrate gospel work—even when it's not from someone in your inner circle. And on this day of national independence, remember this—our unity in Christ is what makes us truly free. #FreedomInChrist, #KingdomUnity, #Mark9 ASK THIS: Have I mistaken group loyalty for Christ-centered unity? How can I discern real gospel fruit from false appearances? Do I rejoice when others succeed in ministry? Where might pride be limiting my kingdom vision? DO THIS: Encourage someone doing faithful work for Christ outside your usual circles. PRAY THIS: Lord, help me celebrate your work—even when it doesn't come through me. Free me from pride and expand my heart for your kingdom. Amen. PLAY THIS: “Build Your Kingdom Here.”

In this episode of Hunger for Wholeness, Sr. Ilia Delio speaks with independent scholar Jared Morningstar about the transformative potential of science-informed spirituality. Drawing from Islamic philosophy, including the thought of Muhammad Iqbal, Jared explores how process thought might bridge religious divides and invite a deeper interfaith convergence—one grounded in creativity, ecological awareness, and scientific integrity.Together, Sr. Ilia and Jared reflect on the long but fractured relationship between science and religion. Why have these traditions, which once collaborated, become estranged? What would it take to move beyond entrenched patriarchal and tribal patterns—particularly those that continue to shape the experiences of women within religious life?Later in the episode, the conversation turns to the enduring role of tradition and the search for meaning in a complex, pluralistic world.ABOUT JARED MORNINGSTAR"Almost everything worthwhile which has accumulated in any religious tradition was, in its own time, a striking ingression of fresh creativity—a creativity, of course, in contact with the self-same wellspring of inspiration at the root of the founding moments of the tradition in question.”Jared Morningstar is an independent scholar with academic interests in philosophy of religion, Islamic studies, comparative religion, metamodern spirituality, and interfaith dialogue. His work in these areas seeks to offer robust responses to issues of inter-religious conflict, contemporary nihilism, and the "meaning crisis," among other things. Jared graduated from Gustavus Adolphus College in 2018 with degrees in religion and Scandinavian studies and currently works for the Center for Process Studies and the Psychedelic Medicine Association. At the Center for Christogenesis we are in the midst of our June fundraiser.

Drawing from personal stories, deep research, and evolutionary psychology, Heaton discusses the roots of human division, the impact of media and technology, and the path to a more thoughtful public discourse. What We Discuss: Why tribalism is hardwired into human nature—and how it gets misapplied in modern politics How Heaton's upbringing influenced his commitment to civility and intellectual rigor The role of media, social media, and political leadership in fostering division Practical tools for having productive, respectful political conversations What we can do—personally and societally—to resist toxic partisanship Episode Highlights: [00:01:00] Intro to Andrew Heaton and his new book [00:02:30] The story behind the dedication to Heaton's father [00:06:45] Heaton's early political influences [00:10:15] How Heaton preps for his many podcasts [00:21:00] The evolutionary roots of tribalism [00:34:00] Protestant vs. Catholic soccer rivalry in Scotland [00:36:30] What changed in the last few decades [00:55:00] Tools for better political conversations Featured Quotes: "There are lots of people that we share this country with that are good and intelligent people. The fact that we disagree with them is not a negation of their humanity." – Andrew Heaton "The need for an enemy precipitates the existence of the enemy." – Andrew Heaton "Tribalism is not just about community. It's about the reflexive urge to find a ‘them' to define the ‘us.'" – Andrew Heaton "I just try to remember: we're not arguing about whether you're a good person.

Rival Worldviews (Part 3) - Consumerism, Expressive Individualism, and Tribalism by Taylors FBC

I, Stewart Alsop, am thrilled to welcome Xathil of Poliebotics to this episode of Crazy Wisdom, for what is actually our second take, this time with a visual surprise involving a fascinating 3D-printed Bauta mask. Xathil is doing some truly groundbreaking work at the intersection of physical reality, cryptography, and AI, which we dive deep into, exploring everything from the philosophical implications of anonymity to the technical wizardry behind his "Truth Beam."Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps01:35 Xathil explains the 3D-printed Bauta Mask, its Venetian origins, and its role in enabling truth through anonymity via his project, Poliepals.04:50 The crucial distinction between public identity and "real" identity, and how pseudonyms can foster truth-telling rather than just conceal.10:15 Addressing the serious risks faced by crypto influencers due to public displays of wealth and the broader implications for online identity.15:05 Xathil details the core Poliebotics technology: the "Truth Beam," a projector-camera system for cryptographically timestamping physical reality.18:50 Clarifying the concept of "proof of aliveness"—verifying a person is currently live in a video call—versus the more complex "proof of liveness."21:45 How the speed of light provides a fundamental advantage for Poliebotics in outmaneuvering AI-generated deepfakes.32:10 The concern of an "inversion," where machine learning systems could become dominant over physical reality by using humans as their actuators.45:00 Xathil's ambitious project to use Poliebotics for creating cryptographically verifiable records of biodiversity, beginning with an enhanced Meles trap.Key InsightsAnonymity as a Truth Catalyst: Drawing from Oscar Wilde, the Bauta mask symbolizes how anonymity or pseudonyms can empower individuals to reveal deeper, more authentic truths. This challenges the notion that masks only serve to hide, suggesting they can be tools for genuine self-expression.The Bifurcation of Identity: In our digital age, distinguishing between one's core "real" identity and various public-facing personas is increasingly vital. This separation isn't merely about concealment but offers a space for truthful expression while navigating public life.The Truth Beam: Anchoring Reality: Poliebotics' "Truth Beam" technology employs a projector-camera system to cast cryptographic hashes onto physical scenes, recording them and anchoring them to a blockchain. This aims to create immutable, verifiable records of reality to combat the rise of sophisticated deepfakes.Harnessing Light Speed Against Deepfakes: The fundamental defense Poliebotics offers against AI-generated fakes is the speed of light. Real-world light reflection for capturing projected hashes is virtually instantaneous, whereas an AI must simulate this complex process, a task too slow to keep up with real-time verification.The Specter of Humans as AI Actuators: A significant future concern is the "inversion," where AI systems might utilize humans as unwitting agents to achieve their objectives in the physical world. By manipulating incentives, AIs could effectively direct human actions, raising profound questions about agency.Towards AI Symbiosis: The ideal future isn't a human-AI war or complete technological asceticism, but a cooperative coexistence between nature, humanity, and artificial systems. This involves developing AI responsibly, instilling human values, and creating systems that are non-threatening and beneficial.Contact Information*   Polybotics' GitHub*   Poliepals*   Xathil: Xathil@ProtonMail.com

Welcome back to our Podcast. and in this episode, we are going to explore the mysterious junction between human potential and the human predicament. Today, we're diving into an idea that may sting a little at first, but, if we look closely, it might also open a hidden door to hope. It involves the unfortunate observation that while human technology, what we do, has evolved at an astonishing pace, human consciousness, who we actually are, has lagged significantly behind. Our ability to split atoms, utilize instant global communications, and code digital realities has raced ahead at lightning speed, fueling our Modern Times. But our capacity for empathy, humility, compassion and having the capacity to be able to live a peaceful, and meaningful life looks much more like we're still stuck the Middle Ages. Which brings us to the content of this episode called “Spears and Switchblades: One Stubborn Species.” To help bring the basic idea into focus, we're going to compare two of the most iconic love tragedies ever put on the stage: William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and its mid-20th century musical reincarnation, West Side Story. Though separated by more than 350 years, these two narratives—one set in Renaissance Verona and the other in 1950s New York City—are mirrors reflecting the same fundamental human flaws. Jealousy. Tribalism. Miscommunication , Stubborness and Pride, among many others. All of which are run by an emotional impulsivity that can turn love into war, and beauty into ashes. So, the first question that we want to explore is: have we grown at all in the past 400 years? Or have we simply become more sophisticated in the weaponry that we have developed in order to kill each other more efficiently? Let's start with the core human dynamics that drive both plays, because even though they are separated by centuries, their basic human flaws remain exactly the same. In Romeo and Juliet, two teenagers fall in love across the boundary of a family feud. The Montagues and Capulets have nursed a blood vendetta for so long that no one even remembers how it started. And it doesn't matter anymore. They just plain hate each other. And its consequences are clear: violence in the streets, death, heartbreak, and ultimately, a double suicide. What are the dominant negative human traits here? Hatred passed down like an heirloom Honor culture run amok Impetuous emotion overpowering reason A lack of inner stillness or reflection, overcome by rage Fast forward 400 years to West Side Story, and we meet Tony and Maria, two lovers from opposing street gangs: the Jets, composed mostly of white working-class youths, and the Sharks, made up of Puerto Rican immigrants. Once again, love blossoms in hostile soil, and once again, the terrible price of primal tribal hatred is death. Different clothes, different slang, different soundtrack. Same madness. And this is the bottom line of the issue. Totally different external world, everything has changed, as well it should. After all, four hundred years have gone by and the situation facing the teenagers living in the streets of New York City would be absolutely unimaginable to the kids running around in the late 1500's.  Completely different on the outside – yet the inner madness remains exactly the same. And the ramifications of this imbalance are immense. Let's compare the outer worlds of these two stories: Romeo and Juliet takes place in late 16th-century Verona. It's a world without electricity, medicine as we know it, or organized police. Family ruled everything. Honor was a matter of life and death. Raw emotions emerged dramatically and physically. And the sword was both symbol and solution. West Side Story unfolds in 1950s Manhattan, post-WWII. Televisions had entered the living room. Jet engines had conquered the sky. The UN had been formed, civil rights movements were stirring. Science had given us vaccines, electricity, and refrigeration. And yet... disputes were still settled with violence. In this case, the weapon of choice was the switch blade. Anger and tribal pride still led to bloodshed. And the beauty of love still ended in the tragedy funerals. So, what changed? The world around us got faster, smarter and ever-more connected. But the world inside us? Pretty much the same old garbage pail. And one of the primary central drivers in both stories is basic tribalism—the instinct to form in-groups and out-groups. The name of the game is us-versus-them. In Romeo and Juliet, the tribes are defined by blood. In West Side Story, by race and ethnicity. In both, the borders are irrational and absolute. This human trait is ancient, seemingly almost hardwired into our survival code. We evolved in small tribes where loyalty equaled life, and strangers equaled threat. But now we live in megacities, online echo chambers where we're still addicted to tribalism. We divide ourselves by politics, religion, race, nationality, gender identity, and more—often with a sense of inner hostility that's far more emotional than rational. In both plays, the pride of belonging to an in-crowd becomes a major fuse. Tybalt's stone cold sense of us and them, along with an ego based identification with personal honor won't let him ignore Romeo's presence at the Capulet ball. Four hundred years later, Bernardo's defense-based sense of belonging to the Sharks won't let him see Tony as anything but another American self-entitled Jet. In both cases, primal tribal dignity demands a serious and significant attack against the perceived enemy. So, the basic recipe for tragedy that spans the centuries remains the same: paranoid pride, mixed with anger and fear, driven by impulse and untampered by any wisdom or understanding turns into a violent weapon of darkness and death. In a certain sense, what happened to us over the years isn't evolution at all. It's just plain repetition Unfortunately, of course this didn't end in the late 1950's. Far from it. While we've vastly upgraded our weaponry, we've also developed more subtle, yet powerful ways to threaten and hurt each other, like social media shaming for example,  where it becomes pretty easy to ruin someone's life just by pressing a few buttons. In the time between William Shakespeare and Leonard Bernstein, humans invented calculus, steam engines, telegraphs, airplanes, televisions, and atomic bombs. We mapped the human genome. We put men on the moon. But we still haven't figured out what we're really all about. Oh, we all know how to chase things, but are these things that we've been programmed to chase real, or they just illusions? Maybe we're just addicted to chasing, itself. In that regard, we've all heard about the tendency of dogs to chase cars. But there are two key aspects to that particular pursuit. One – the dog can never really catch the car. It is much too fast for it. And secondly – what happens if the dog actually does catch the car and we all know the answer to that – nothing. The dog can't do anything if and when it catches the car. It's the same way for us. We're just running after things on the outside, oblivious to who we really are and what we are really made of, not to mention what can actually make us truly happy and satisfied. And all of this goes on while we continue to improve our technology by leaps and bounds. Yet, we still don't know how to disagree without resorting to violence. We still haven't universally adopted the idea that every human being, regardless of their identity, has intrinsic value. We still raise children who feel unloved, unheard, or unsafe. We're still driven by fear disguised as pride. We still confuse dominance with dignity. And we still kill the thing we love because we don't know how to hold it. And the bottom line of it all is basically defending the inherent illusion of our ego selves, which is still at the basic foundation of our inner C-Suite. As such, we still confuse noise with strength. And we still take most the good things in our life for granted, which is truly tragic. Like Joni Mitchell sang in a seemingly earlier age, “Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you've got till it's gone.” As it all continues to spiral further, in so many ways, the message to us is crystal clear – It's time to wake up and grow up. Romeo and Juliet loved across a line they weren't supposed to cross. Tony and Maria did it too. Their love was a shining light in the midst of all this darkness. Even though everything seemed to be against them, they knew what they had. And we knew it too. And despite what we knew it was that they were facing, we all rooted for them, because something about the higher thing in life, the Better Angels of Our Nature, speaks to the deepest part of our intelligence, both in our hearts and in our minds. We have more tools than ever to connect across cultures, to educate, to innovate, to heal. And yet, we still face the same old demons. But here's the good news: we are capable of change. Unlike the characters in those plays, our story isn't written yet. We are not locked in a script. We can choose awareness. We can choose evolution. The keynote to both of these tragedies is that it is time to individually bring our inner light to our own inner darkness. The Wisdom of the Ages as well as modern brain science tell us that we do have the power to protect this light from the winds of hate, fear and pride, and that we can, and essentially must, cultivate the inner skills of patience, compassion, empathy, and yes - courage. NeuroHarmonics: Inner Technology for a New Humanity That's what the NeuroHarmonic Method is all about: cultivating the inner circuitry to match the brilliance of our outer inventions. It's not just about brainwaves or affirmations or even spirituality. It's about training the nervous system to return to equilibrium, to respond rather than react, to perceive the human being behind the mask, and ultimately to shift from emotional immaturity to presence. From the rage of vengeance to an intuitive sense grace. But this is a path toward real evolution that can only be travelled one person at a time. Because the world won't evolve until we do it individually. Not really. So here we are, somewhere between Shakespeare's Verona and the 21st century, still caught in the drama. But I hate to tell you that the Bard didn't invent this particular tale. The truth is, it stands atop a mountain of ancient stories echoing the same theme—love thwarted by fate, culture, or conflict. And this motif is not unique to the Renaissance or even to Western civilization. The same basic story can be found in the cultures of ancient Greece and Rome, Babylon, ancient Egypt, Persia, and India. Indeed, it's one of the most enduring themes in human storytelling. And the deeper you dig, the further back you go, the more you realize: the tragedy of love versus society and the battle of light versus darkness is as old as storytelling itself. But maybe, just maybe, we're ready to write a different ending. One where love doesn't die. One where pride yields to peace. One where technology finally partners with wisdom. Let's imagine a future version of West Side Story, maybe 400 years from now. What would it take for that version not to be a tragedy? Maybe the gangs might still exist, but their interchange would consist of words instead of weapons. Maybe love would not be hidden in the shadows, but declared in daylight. Maybe reconciliation would be taught in schools, right alongside science and math. Maybe forgiveness would be considered a mark of strength, not weakness. Consciousness evolution would be about not just developing new tools, but new tendencies, moving us from: From reaction to reflection From judgment to curiosity From pride to presence From tribalism to universalism It means valuing not just intelligence, but wisdom. This all represents something to look forward to and welcome into our lives in the here and now, as much as we are able. And if we're not able to yet, at least we can make our intentions known to ourselves. Well, this will be the end of this episode. As always, keep your eyes, mind and heart open, and let's get together in the next one.

Send us a textIn a world obsessed with certainty, group identity, and the illusion of "the one right way," what happens when we choose to live in the question instead of clinging to the answer?In this episode, we challenge the seductive comfort of tribalism and explore how identifying too strongly with a single worldview can shrink our humanity. We dive into the dangerous allure of "my truth" vs. the truth, and why people who promise you the right way may be leading you the wrong way.Through the lens of self-compassion, responsibility, and the courage to deconstruct our own egos, we unpack how awareness without shame creates the space for real change. You'll hear about the power of environment, the beauty of curiosity, and the transformative question: What if I had six months to live, what would I do differently?This is not an episode about how to live like someone else. It's about discovering what's real, meaningful, and creatively joyful for you.Visit us at:www.theselfhelpantidote.com

In this episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt welcome back returning guest Carey Wedler, a journalist, editor, and long-time voice for liberty and integrity in independent media. Carey is the author of the Pleasure to Burn Substack, where she dives into topics ranging from political hypocrisy and propaganda to fear psychology and decentralization—all through a lens of principled consistency. We kick off the episode by digging into Carey's recent article she wrote for the Free Thought Project, “From Drain the Swamp to Drown in Debt,” where she calls out the glaring hypocrisy in the first 100 days of the Trump administration. We examine how so many of Trump's supporters—who once decried big government, war, censorship, and surveillance—now cheerlead these same policies under a new banner. Why is it so easy for people to abandon their principles? Why does team loyalty seem to override truth? Carey unpacks those questions with a powerful exploration of fear, chronic stress, and the neuroscience behind political compliance. She explains how manipulated fear responses, constant crisis narratives, and tribalism keep the public in a reactive state—where principles are sacrificed and critical thinking is sidelined. Despite the grim outlook, Carey leaves us with a handful of hopeful, empowering white pills—reminding us that awareness, decentralization, and inner peace are potent forms of resistance. This was Carey's second time on the show, and as always, she brought both clarity and depth to the conversation.

Douglas Macgregor, retired U.S. Army colonel, military strategist, and frequent geopolitical commentator, for a timely conversation on the heels of the Trump administration's 100-Day celebration. He is also the CEO of  ⁨@OurCountryOurChoice⁩ . In classic form, Col.

Col. Macgregor analyzes some of the most pressing challenges facing the nation today, issues that are complex and difficult to confront. His perspective is contrarian yet strikingly bipartisan, offering a rare lens through which to examine America's future. --- Coin Stories is powered by Bitwise.

You're probably not seeing the world for what it really is. Your beliefs about truth, politics, and even chaos itself are all being challenged by the way information is being disseminated today.

Shane is someone who's pushed boundaries in media and has witnessed first-hand the complexity of a world that's increasingly becoming post-truth. He's a man who's not afraid to ask the tough questions about politics, media, and the intricate latticework of truths and lies.
