Phil Robertson had a surprising way of settling arguments with his boys when they got into trouble, and the guys dig into a bigger conversation about why so many men today struggle to lead their families. Turning to Genesis, the guys examine the roles given to men and women—roles humanity has wrestled with since the beginning and that modern culture only seems to complicate further. Zach helps explain how believers can test the spirits and recognize truth through Scripture and the fruit of the Spirit.

A Note from James:I talked to Nelson Dellis, who's a six-time USA Memory Champion and has broken multiple Guinness World Records. His book, Everyday Genius, makes a pretty bold claim—that with some practice and the right techniques, you can dramatically improve how your brain works.We didn't just talk about memory. We got into everything: mental math, focus, cold reading, even some techniques that feel almost like magic. And I've done a lot of episodes on memory over the years—but Nelson showed me things I hadn't seen before.What stood out to me is this idea that “genius” isn't some fixed trait. It's a collection of skills you can build. Some of them are surprisingly simple once you understand how your brain actually works.I'm definitely going to spend more time practicing some of these techniques. There's a lot here that's immediately useful—and a lot that could take years to master.Episode Description:James sits down with world memory champion Nelson Dellis to break down what memory really is—and how far it can be pushed.Nelson explains how his grandmother's battle with Alzheimer's led him into the world of memory training, eventually becoming one of the best in the world. From memorizing thousands of digits to competing in global competitions, he shows that memory is not a fixed trait—it's a skill.The conversation goes beyond memory into focus, reading, learning, and even social intelligence. Nelson shares practical techniques for improving recall, reading faster without losing comprehension, and using visualization to retain more information.They also explore the edge cases—cold reading, intuition, and even experiments with “remote viewing”—where perception and cognition blur into something that feels almost supernatural.At its core, this episode is about expanding what you believe your brain is capable of.What You'll Learn:Why memory is a trainable skill—not something you're born withHow visualization and emotional context dramatically improve recallThe difference between “speed reading” and “focus reading”Simple techniques to retain more from books and conversationsHow cold reading works (and why it feels like magic)Why reviewing information—not cramming—is key to long-term memoryThe mental habits that create the appearance of “genius”How attention and focus are becoming rare—and valuable—skillsTimestamped Chapters:00:02:00 – Nelson's origin story: Alzheimer's and the motivation to master memory 00:02:16 – Why reading is like living thousands of lives 00:03:13 – Introducing Everyday Genius and the promise of trainable intelligence 00:04:33 – Memory palace techniques and applying them to real-world skills 00:05:13 – Can memory training help prevent Alzheimer's? 00:06:13 – Daily memory training routines and measurable progress 00:08:16 – From beginner to USA Memory Champion 00:10:00 – Memorizing 10,000 digits of pi: how it actually works 00:11:31 – Turning numbers into stories: the core of memory systems 00:14:28 – Why emotion and visualization drive memory 00:16:00 – Memory competition benchmarks and world-class performance 00:18:00 – What “genius” actually means—and how to simulate it 00:20:00 – The four pillars: memory, reading, focus, and learning 00:23:33 – Speed reading vs. focus reading (and why most people get it wrong) 00:25:12 – The finger-tracking technique to instantly read faster 00:27:16 – Why you don't need to read every word 00:30:17 – Why cramming fails (and how memory actually forms) 00:31:17 – Visualization while reading: turning text into a movie 00:34:00 – Active recall, note-taking, and long-term retention systems 00:37:16 – Cold reading and social intelligence 00:41:00 – Body language cues: attention, interest, and perception 00:43:00 – How mentalists create the illusion of mind reading 00:46:00 – Psychological “forcing” and influencing choices 00:51:00 – Remote viewing experiments and cognitive edge cases Additional ResourcesEveryday Genius: Hacks to Boost Your Memory, Focus, Problem Solving and Much MoreSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The best conversations about Team USA's wild win over the Dominican Republic from Boomer & Gio, Evan & Tiki, and The Carton Show. Plus, reacting to Aaron Judge saying the World Baseball Classic atmosphere is "bigger and better" than the World Series'.

Leah Marcus and Yasaman Bakhtiar are the co-founders of Good Girl Snacks, the brand that turned a TikTok obsession into a full-blown business.These two best friends didn't come from food. They came from corporate. Leah was in marketing at a tech startup, Yas was at an auction house debating whether to go back for her master's. What changed everything was a lot of TikTok scrolling and asking one question: why is everyone obsessed with pickles right now, and why isn't there a brand that actually feels like us? So at 23, they quit their jobs, hired a food scientist, found a manufacturer in the middle of Massachusetts, and started building. Documenting every messy, unfiltered moment along the way on social. By the time they launched in February 2024, they already had a community waiting. They sold out in under three months, closed a pre-seed round in two weeks, had a collab with Khloé Kardashian, and are now on shelves at Erewhon, Whole Foods, and Bristol Farms. All with zero dollars spent on ads.In this episode, we get into all of it. The leap they took before they were ready, the social media playbook they built from scratch, and the production nightmares that would have made most people quit. But this isn't really a story about pickles. It's about what it actually feels like to bet on yourself when the odds aren't clearly in your favor. Leah and Yas are proof that the founders who win aren't always the most experienced. They're just the ones who refused to stop.In this episode, we'll talk about:* Leaving corporate jobs and feeling the pull toward entrepreneurship. [02:12]* How a TikTok pickle trend sparked the idea for Good Girl Snacks. [03:58]* Doing the research before quitting their jobs. [06:52]* The confidence that comes from building with the right co-founder. [09:10]* Taking the leap and launching the business in 2023. [11:20]* Building hype on social media months before the product existed. [12:33]* Creating a viral content series to grow an audience. [14:30]* Why consistency and daily posting built early momentum. [18:19]* Finding the first manufacturing partner and navigating production challenges. [19:36]* “Cucumber Gate” and the realities of building a food product. [23:06]* Turning startup mishaps into viral storytelling content. [26:31]* Why resilience and problem-solving matter more than glamour in entrepreneurship. [29:00]* Building community through events, activations, and everyday customers. [31:15]* How influencer relationships and brand partnerships fueled growth. [32:19]* The Khloe Kardashian moment and what celebrity exposure really does for a brand. [34:09]* Landing early retail wins with Pop Up Grocer, Erewhon, and Whole Foods. [38:04]* Raising their first investment round after proving product-market fit. [40:00]* The long-term vision for Good Girl Snacks beyond pickles. [42:23]* Lessons about entrepreneurship they learned the hard way. [43:23]* The sacrifices founders make that people rarely see.

Click here for the DRB Daily Sign Up form! TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: Deuteronomy 28-29, Galatians 6 Click HERE to give! One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on the Daily Radio Bible, a daily Bible‑in‑a‑year podcast with 20‑minute Scripture readings, Christ‑centered devotion, and guided prayer.This daily Bible reading and devotional invites you to live as a citizen of Jesus' kingdom, reconciled, renewed, and deeply loved. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today's episode, your host and Bible reading coach, Hunter, guides us through a deep and heart-stirring journey in scripture. We start with powerful passages from Deuteronomy 28 and 29, reflecting on the blessings and curses tied to Israel's covenant with God—a "quid pro quo" arrangement that highlights the challenge of living up to the law. But Hunter helps us see that the story doesn't end there. Turning to Galatians 6, we're reminded of the new promise given to us in Christ, a promise not dependent on our own ability to keep every command, but on what God has done for us through Jesus and the cross. As we move from the ancient terms of law to the new reality of grace, Hunter invites us to discover God's true heart—a heart fully revealed in Jesus, marked by love, mercy, and sacrificial giving. We close with thoughtful prayers, grounding ourselves in God's presence and love, and a word of encouragement to carry us forward: we are treasured, loved, and invited to live each day in the light of these truths. Join us for this rich, contemplative time in scripture, prayer, and reflection. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Quid pro quo. This for that. That's the old principle—the way of the law we just heard in Deuteronomy. If you do this, you'll receive that. If you keep these terms, the blessing is yours. But if you fail, the curse follows. It's a heavy reality—one that's sobering, even terrifying—because who among us can really live up to it? We're faced with a standard of holiness and faithfulness that's utterly beyond our reach. But, as we turn to Galatians, we're introduced to something entirely new. The old contract gives way to a new promise, a new principle. Not "this for that"—rather, it's what God has already done for us. On the cross, Jesus fulfills the impossible terms of the old agreement so that we can know its blessing. He takes on the whole weight—the demand for holiness, the full consequence of missing the mark—and he fulfills it. The cross is the final word. In Jesus, God doesn't just let prophets and scribes tell the story of who he is—he comes in person. We see what God is truly like. And Christ's sacrificial, self-giving, co-suffering love becomes the revelation of God's heart. It's not about keeping score. It's not about earning our way by "this for that." It's pure gift—love poured out for people who have nothing to give but their need and their trust. So, as you hear the strong warnings and conditional blessings and curses of Deuteronomy, let your heart look up and see the face of Jesus—the one who has achieved all the blessings for you, who has defeated death and sin, and who invites you to live as a new creation. Not by fear, not by your own exhausting efforts, but by the cruciform love of God. Let's breathe deep and live in the reality of grace. Let this new way shape us—with gratitude, love, and a transforming vision of who God is. God is like Jesus. The final word has come, and it is love. That's a prayer I have for my own soul. That's a prayer I have for my family, for my wife and daughters and son. And that's a prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL  

This message traces the tragic decline of King Saul and answers a crucial question: if David sinned just as badly as Saul, why was Saul rejected by God and David called “a man after God's own heart”? Drawing from 1 Samuel 10–16 and 28, as well as Deuteronomy and 2 Chronicles, Pastor Allen walks through three major failures in Saul's life:- Offering sacrifices his own way instead of God's way  - Partially obeying God's command to destroy the Amalekites  - Turning to a forbidden necromancer when God stopped answering him  We see how Saul's disobedience, excuses, blame-shifting, and refusal to fully submit to God's authority led to the Spirit departing from him and God choosing David instead.

Rod Babers, CJ Vogel, and Jeff Howe took a deep dive into the first two spring practices and focused on one big question: Which portal additions are already standing out? From Cam Coleman's star power, to Ian Geffrard's massive presence, to Melvin Siani solidifying the offensive line, this transfer class is already looking like a major reason Texas could be a different animal in 2026.

This week thousands of podcasters around the world take part in Podcastathon, a global effort that shines a spotlight on nonprofit organizations doing meaningful work in their communities. For one week, hosts swap their usual topics for stories about causes they care about and invite their listeners to learn more, get involved, or lend support. This episode is my contribution to that global event, and it gave me the perfect excuse to talk about one of my favorite nonprofits. Sometimes the hardest part of marketing isn't getting attention. It's helping people feel comfortable enough to try something new. That is exactly the challenge when you run a Fringe theater festival. In this episode, I chatted with Paul Daly, Executive Director of the IF Theatre in Indianapolis. IF Theatre is the home of the Indy Fringe Festival, one of the largest fringe festivals in the world, bringing dozens of performers and hundreds of shows to Mass Ave every summer. The festival celebrates creativity, experimentation, and the kind of performances you will not see anywhere else. But that same freedom can make newcomers hesitate. When audiences are not quite sure what they are getting into, they may stay home. Paul shared a simple marketing approach designed to make the experience easier to say yes to. Takeaways Give people a path into the experience Fringe festivals can feel overwhelming. With so many shows and styles, first timers do not always know where to start. This year IF Theatre plans to introduce curated show lists. Want a day of comedy? There is a list for that. Prefer serious drama or an eclectic mix? There are paths for those too. Instead of asking people to sort through dozens of options, the festival gives them a starting point. • Help people understand what to expect Younger audiences especially want clarity before they commit. What will this experience feel like? Is it funny, thought provoking, weird, or a little bit of everything? Clear descriptions and curated experiences remove uncertainty and make it easier for someone to buy that first ticket. • Tell the bigger story behind the brand Many people know Indy Fringe as a ten day festival. What they may not know is that IF Theatre runs year round programs, classes, and performances. One key message they continue to repeat is simple. IF Theatre is the organization. Indy Fringe is its biggest event. The lesson here is straightforward. When people feel unsure, they hesitate. When you guide them, they step forward. And sometimes all it takes is showing them where to start.

Ralph spends the whole hour with progressive activist, Corbin Trent, former communications director for Alexandria Ocasio Cortez to discuss the lack of vision and the spineless leadership in the corporate Democratic Party.Corbin Trent is a co-founder of Brand New Congress and former co-director of Justice Democrats, two grassroots organizations working to elect progressive Democrats to Congress. He was the National Campaign Coordinator for the Bernie Sanders Presidential campaign, and recently served as the Communications Director for Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. He writes about rebuilding America at AmericasUndoing.com.This is a [Democratic] Party that is led by sinecurists and apparatchiks who never look at themselves in the mirror after they lose to the most vicious, cruel, ignorant, anti-worker, anti-women, anti-environment, anti-small taxpayer, pro-war Republican Party. They never look into it. It's always: they blame the Greens or they blame some third party or Independent candidate. And they never ask themselves why as a national party did they abandon half the country, which are now called red states?Ralph NaderThe Democratic Party I think, ultimately, is leaderless because it's visionless. It doesn't really see. I don't think the Democratic Party as an entity or as an ideology has a real vision for how to go forward differently. And, therefore, it's hard to be led. It's hard to lead if you don't have a direction.Corbin TrentThe Democratic Party—like your Chuck Schumers, like your Hakeem Jeffries, and like most of the people that are elected there and in leadership positions at all, look at this system, the system of neoliberalism, and they think that somehow it's going to magically start working again. And the fact is that it's not. They have been unable so far to internalize the depth of the brokenness of this system. And then really unable to, I think, really internalize why Trump was powerful, why his messages were powerful. They want to look at it through this extremely narrow and negative lens of racism, bigotry and fear. As opposed to a complete and utter disdain for the system which is sucking from their lives and extracting from their communities. And I think that spells trouble.Corbin TrentIt's not my job as a voter to inspire myself to vote for you. It's your job as a candidate or as a party or as somebody to build a vision that inspires me to vote.Corbin TrentNews 3/13/26* This week, the New York City Council held a hearing on proposed legislation to carry out Mayor Zohran Mamdani's pledge to repossess property from “landlords who have racked up housing code violations and debt from unpaid taxes and fines.” This bill would empower the city's Department of Housing Preservation and Development to turn these buildings over to owners they deem “more responsible.” This would be an update of a program the city has tried to implement before, called “third-party transfer.” However, the council is hesitant to take this step, worrying that it could disproportionately affect small landlords that simply lack the resources to fix code violations or pay fees, as opposed to venture capital backed corporate landlords. Rosa Kelly, chief of staff to the housing commissioner, said the department “views the program as a key part of [their] broader enforcement and preservation toolkit to ensure that housing remains safe and livable for New Yorkers.” This from Gothamist.* In more local news, this week Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser released a long-awaited report on congestion traffic pricing in the District of Columbia. According to the Washington Examiner, the study was conducted in 2021 and the Mayor has delayed the release until now. Along with the release of the study, Mayor Bowser sent a letter to D.C. Council Chairman Phil Mendelson, wherein the Mayor described the “congestion pricing tax scheme,” which includes a proposed $10 charge for people entering the city, as a “bad idea,” and argued that D.C. could not be compared to Midtown Manhattan, which recently implemented a successful congestion pricing system. Democratic Socialist Councilwoman and leading Mayoral candidate Janeese Lewis-George refused to dismiss the study out of hand, writing “Now that the report is public, the Council has an opportunity to dig into the findings & explore what they could mean for the District—including opportunities to reduce congestion, improve air quality & public health, & strengthen public transit for residents across the city.”* Meanwhile, on the West Coast, a new poll shows incumbent Mayor Karen Bass drawing under 20% of the vote in the upcoming primary for her reelection campaign. While this still puts Bass in the lead, it is clearly a weak showing and would be far below the 50% threshold she would need to win to avoid a November runoff. This poll also finds former reality television star Spencer Pratt in second place with around 10% support, and councilmember Nithya Raman – who has been both endorsed and censured by DSA LA in the past – in third with just over 9%, per KTLA. The LA Mayoral race mirrors the California gubernatorial race, which features ten candidates, none of whom draws over 20% in the polls. At some point, the party will have to step in to pressure underperforming candidates to drop out and endorse more viable alternatives, but June is quickly approaching with little sign of party unity.* Speaking of the Democrats, POLITICO is out with a new story on how red state Democratic parties are undermining their best chances of toppling incumbent Republican Senators – independent populist left candidates. In Montana, former University of Montana President Seth Bodnar has launched an independent bid for Senate, with the backing of former longtime Montana Democratic Senator Jon Tester. Bodnar filed on the final day candidates could get on the ballot in the state, and on that same day, three-term incumbent Republican Senator Steve Daines announced he would not run for reelection. POLITICO describes this as “an explicit effort to keep Democrats from fielding a strong candidate of their own.” The state party however shows no interest in stepping aside to clear a path for Bodnar. A similar dynamic is unfolding in South Dakota, with the state party feuding with independent candidate Brian Bengs – who has “raised more than five times his Democratic opponent and more than any non-Republican candidate in the state in 16 years” – while in Idaho, former Democratic state lawmaker Todd Achilles is running as an independent and the state party has played their strategy close to the vest. Only in Nebraska has the state party fully thrown their weight behind the popular independent candidate Dan Osborn, who came within approximately 60,000 votes of longtime incumbent Deb Fischer in 2024 and is polling within a single point of Senator Pete Ricketts this cycle.* In Congress, Republicans have independent problems of their own. Last week, Republican Rep. Kevin Kiley announced he would register as “no party preference,” instead of as a Republican, as he seeks reelection to Congress in his newly redrawn California congressional district. Axios quotes a Kiley spokesperson who said it is “not official yet” whether he will leave the party or the conference, adding: “For now, he's just filing as an independent for his reelection campaign.” If Kiley did leave the Republican conference, it would further imperil the Republicans' razor-thin House majority, which has been continuously whittled down over the course of the 119th Congress.* Turning to foreign affairs, Reuters reports that on Sunday, Colombia held congressional elections which saw the leftist Historic Pact win the most seats in the Senate, but with only 25 out of 102 seats, the Pact will have to compete against the right-wing Democratic Center in order to form a coalition government. Democratic Center, led by ⁠former President Alvaro Uribe, won 17 seats. Ivan Cepeda, the presidential candidate of Historic Pact, called the election results a “categorical ​victory.” In the House, Democratic Center won 32 out of 182 seats, followed by the ‌Liberal ⁠Party with 31, and the Historic Pact with 29. Colombia will choose a new president in May, but according to Ariel Avila, a re-elected senator from the Green Alliance, whether that president is left or right they will likely face a “vetocracy” where “lawmakers block parties ​simply because they come from the opposing side.”* In more news from Latin America, the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR) reports the right-wing government of Daniel Noboa in Ecuador has suspended the largest opposition party – the leftist Citizens' Revolution or RC – for nine months. If carried out, RC, led by former leftist president Rafael Correa, will effectively be barred from registering candidates for the 2027 local elections. CEPR Co-Director Mark Weisbrot is quoted saying “The government of President Daniel Noboa, who is strongly backed by President Trump, is trying to accelerate the destruction of what is left of democracy in Ecuador.” CEPR Director of International Policy Alex Main added “Democracy has been under attack since the presidency of Lenín Moreno (2017–2021), with not only the exclusion of political parties, but with persecution by lawfare, the imprisonment or forced exile of political opponents, and Noboa's repeated assumption of ‘emergency' powers and other abuses that have gutted civil liberties.” Recently, President Noboa has been closely collaborating with Trump and the U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) to carry out joint “lethal kinetic operations” in Ecuador.* Turning to the Middle East, NBC reports Iran is launching its ‘most intense' strikes of the war, firing some of its most advanced ballistic missiles toward Tel Aviv and Haifa and attacking multiple ships attempting passage through the blockaded Straits of Hormuz. Additionally, reports are trickling out through the Israeli press, which operates under military censorship, about high-profile targets being hit inside the country. The Jewish Chronicle confirms Binyah Hevron, son of Israeli finance minister Bezalel Smotrich was wounded by a Hezbollah rocket, with shrapnel penetrating his back and abdomen, while Yahoo News has debunked rumors that an Iranian missile strike killed Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir. Officially, over 1,200 have been killed by Israeli and American strikes in Iran, according to the Iranian Red Crescent Society, while 570 have been killed in Lebanon. Retlatiatory strikes by Iran have killed 13 in Israel.* Meanwhile, a new wrinkle has emerged in the Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery deal. Last week, Variety reported that Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Richard Blumenthal have been raising the alarm about financing for this deal coming from Gulf states, including the Qatar Investment Authority, the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority and Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund. This duo have called for the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States – an interagency body that reviews foreign investments in American businesses for potential national security risks – to review the deal. Warren told the industry trade publication, “Given the cloud of corruption surrounding the Trump administration's review of this deal from Day One, it's no surprise that Trump's Treasury Department is sticking its head in the sand instead of investigating the national security risks of $24 billion from Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds apparently flooding this deal. It's American consumers who will pay the price. Thanks to Donald Trump, a Paramount-Warner Bros. merger could mean higher prices and fewer choices, and might allow foreign actors to control what's on our screens or access our private viewing information.” Ironically, the Trump administration's warlike actions in Iran may have inadvertently solved this problem. Gizmodo reports that the Gulf states are now “reviewing current and future investment commitments in order to alleviate some of the anticipated economic strain from the current war.” It is unclear what would happen if the Gulf states rescinded their financing of this deal, seeing as Paramount is the buyer preferred by the Trump administration and has already paid the $2.8 billion “break-up” fee to Netflix stipulated by their previous agreement with WBD.* Finally, a new Pew poll reveals a troubling reality of contemporary American life. According to the poll, which asked people around the world to rate the morality and ethics of others in their country, 53% of U.S. adults say their fellow Americans have bad morals and ethics. While that may not sound so stark, Pew notes that the United States is the only country they surveyed where more adults described the morality and ethics of others living in the country as bad rather than good, with only 47% saying the latter. Turkey came up second, with 51% saying good and 49% saying bad. Pew is careful to state that they have never conducted a poll on this question before, meaning they cannot say whether this is a reflection of long-held beliefs among Americans or a new phenomenon, but it could be the result of long-term trends related to political polarization and the decline in interpersonal trust over the past several decades. Whatever the reasons behind this fact, it presents a formidable problem for political leaders. How can one unify a country wherein the people do not trust one another or even believe that their neighbors are morally and ethically upstanding individuals? Surely there must be a way forward, but what that is I cannot say.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

He grew up in Barbados and moved to the United States of America as a young adult. Neville Goddard was perhaps the last century's most intellectually substantive and charismatic purveyor of the philosophy generally called New Thought. He wrote more than ten books under the solitary pen name Neville, and was a popular speaker on metaphysical themes from the late 1930s until his death in 1972.Possessed of a self-educated and uncommonly sharp intellect, Neville espoused a spiritual vision that was bold and total: Everything you see and experience, including other people, is the result of your own thoughts and emotional states. Each of us dreams into existence an infinitude of realities and outcomes. When you realize this, Neville taught, you will discover yourself to be a slumbering branch of the Creator clothed in human form, and at the helm of limitless possibilities.Neville's thought system influenced a wide range of spiritual thinkers and writers, from bestselling author Dr. Joseph Murphy to Rhonda Byrne and Wayne Dyer.He has inspired and continues to inspire millions of readers around the world.* * *SOCIALS:• Neville Goddard Newsletter• Neville Goddard Telegram• Neville Goddard Instagram• Neville Goddard Threads• Neville Goddard Twitter• Neville Goddard YouTube* * *ABOUT THE COURSEUnlock God Mode is a transformative 30-day course designed to accelerate your journey towards greater wealth, love, and success through a deeper understanding and manipulation of your reality.  Comprising of 30 audio lessons, this course unfolds as a self-paced, introspective expedition into reality creation, aiding you in elevating your consciousness to what's referred to as the God Mode. Throughout this journey, practical tools will be provided daily to help enrich your life with more love, money, and success by altering your mental models and perceptions. This course combines theory and hands-on experience to create a unique deep dive into manifestation, consciousness, and reality creation.

Defense Attorney Joe Tacopina joins Sid for his weekly Friday morning hit to talk about the World Baseball Classic, arguing modern pitch counts and reduced workloads make pitchers more fragile while the real injury driver is today's max-velocity approach. He shares a humorous memory of being mocked for wearing Mets jerseys while their colleague wore cowboy hats and boots, then discusses renewed excitement around St. John's basketball under Rick Pitino and plans to attend the Big East tournament. Turning to war, Tacopina says that regardless of how it began, the U.S. must finish the mission and that airstrikes can only damage Iran's nuclear program; securing enriched uranium and verifying destruction would require limited special-operations “boots on the ground.” He also criticizes NYC Mayor Eric Adams' free-speech rationale for hosting Mahmoud Khalil and cites Adams visiting a wounded perpetrator instead of a shot police officer.

Travis is joined on the mic riffing with his producer about fast food CEOs, viral burger campaigns, and what they reveal about modern content and personal branding. Through a hilarious breakdown of McDonald's new “Big Arch” burger promo and the competitive responses from Burger King, A&W, and Wendy's, Travis pulls out practical lessons for entrepreneurs on how to think about content, virality, and brand personality. On this episode we talk about: McDonald's controversial Big Arch CEO taste-test video and why it blew up. How Burger King, A&W, and Wendy's “clapped back” with their own CEO burger videos. Why some CEOs should not be the face of their marketing—and when it works. How a simple iPhone video can outperform big-budget ad campaigns in reach and impact. Ideas for piggybacking on trends and turning competitor content into your own marketing angle. Top 3 Takeaways You don't have to be polished to win on social—an awkward CEO video can generate more awareness than a six‑month, celebrity-backed campaign if people can react to it and share it. Even “failed” content can be a win when it sparks conversation, duets, stitches, and competitor responses that multiply your brand's reach for free. As a business owner, your skill set is running the company, not necessarily making content—treat content like its own craft, and either develop that skill or get help so the brand doesn't take avoidable hits. Notable Quotes "Sometimes even when it doesn't work, it still works." "That cost them zero dollars and about two minutes of time, and it was equal to three or four months of their traditional marketing budget." "They may be really good at what they do for a living, but creating content is a different skill set."

**TRIGGER WARNING **todays episode references child abuse, please take care while listening. Today is part two of Jeannine's interview with Matthew Hahn. Matt was a career criminal whose meth addiction and history of residential burglaries earned him three strikes by the age of 18. At 25, Matt was fresh off of parole, and back in his addiction. Returning to his old methods to support his lifestyle, Matt broke into a house and stole a safe - a choice that would change his life forever. What he discovered in that safe would pose a dilemma of choosing to turn in evidence of a crime - when to do so would cost him his freedom for the rest of his life.Part Two picks up where Part One left off, in 2005 after Matt found evidence of a heinous crime inside a safe that he had stolen from a home. Matt ultimately returns to prison and begins leaning into Buddhism as a vital part of his recovery.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Friday Griffin Warner opened the latest episode of What I Bet On from Dallas, running through a Friday card that featured soccer across Spain, Italy, France and Germany, along with an early look at college basketball. He noted that the show entered the night on a two game best bet winning streak after cashing Iowa under on March 5 and Northwestern plus five against Indiana on March 11, and said the goal was to make it three in a row. In Spain, Warner broke down Deportivo Alaves as a home underdog against Villarreal and said his strongest interest was the under two and a half goals, pointing to Alaves ability to dictate tempo and turn games physical. In Italy, he discussed Torino against Parma and leaned toward a low scoring match as well, saying he preferred waiting to see Parma rise to a larger underdog price while also liking the under with the extra quarter goal. In France, he focused on Auxerre as a road underdog at Metz and said he expected a competitive match, with interest in Auxerre plus one and a half if the market moved there by kickoff. In Germany, he highlighted Borussia Monchengladbach against St. Pauli and said the under two and a quarter goals stood out most because he did not trust St. Pauli to score. Warner also promoted Pregame s Madness 2026 contest, describing it as a free college basketball competition that runs through the national title game on April 6, with prizes for the top 10 finishers based on net profit. Turning to college basketball, he opened with George Washington against Saint Louis in the Atlantic 10 and said the number showed respect for George Washington, especially with the lower seeded team already having played on the neutral court. He then looked at Ohio State against Michigan and argued that 13 points was too large, citing Ohio State s game under its belt and the possibility of a respectable close loss carrying value. In the SEC, he evaluated Kentucky against Florida and said 10 and a half points felt too high for a neutral court rivalry game, even while acknowledging Florida s strength inside. He also pointed to Wisconsin against Illinois as another game where the underdog deserved attention, saying eight points was a significant number for a Wisconsin team that had already played on site and recently beaten Purdue on the road. Warner closed by promoting the code dance20 for 20 percent off at Pregame through March 23 and made Wisconsin plus eight his best bet, saying he expected the number to fall and viewed the matchup as a close game, with an added suggestion to split the wager between the first half and the full game.

The conversation delves into Robin's journey from high school dancer to passionate dance educator and studio owner. She shares candidly about her realization that while she loves dance, her true calling lies in nurturing others within that realm, emphasizing the importance of tradition, discipline, and ceremony in ballet education.Robin also explores the complexity of nurturing stars in the performing arts, identifying students who stand out due to their dedication, respect, and ability to absorb corrections. The episode touches on key themes such as the necessity of loving the process over the mere performance and the invaluable life skills acquired through dance training. Gutierrez and Robbins further discuss the challenges of instructing in contemporary times, noting the significance of supporting both students and parents in understanding the demands and rewards of the performing arts.Key Takeaways:Emphasizing tradition and discipline in dance education helps build character and life skills in students.Success in dance and life requires loving the process, not just the performance.Identifying 'stars' involves recognizing students who show eagerness, respect, and a capacity to internalize lessons.The arts provide invaluable experiences for dealing with rejection and persistence, crucial for life's challenges.Engaging parents in the process can enhance children's success and understanding in performing arts education.Notable Quotes:"I love dance, but I don't love to dance. And that's something I've realized is okay for me.""Our students need to learn the joy in the everyday doing of the thing, not just the performance.""The honor of ballet tradition offers something our children really benefit from in today's casual culture.""Students who show up eager to learn and respectfully interact are often those who succeed, in dance and in life.""Parents can play a vital part by resisting the urge to shield their kids from disappointment and instead coach them through it."Connect with Robin Snyder:WebsiteInstagramFacebookConnect with Rudy Mawer:LinkedInInstagramFacebookTwitter

Payment declines happen millions of times a day, but how a financial institution handles that moment of failure can define the entire customer relationship. My guest on this episode is Amir Wain, the Founder and CEO of i2c, a global payments and banking infrastructure company he has been building for more than 25 years. Amir is a serial entrepreneur who made a foundational architectural bet early on: that a single, customer-centric, composable platform built for all products and all geographies would ultimately win over the industry's prevailing approach of stitching acquisitions together.That bet has paid off. Today, i2c powers card and banking programs across 200-plus countries for financial institutions, fintechs, and governments alike. In our conversation, we dig into how modern unified payments infrastructure enables real-time contextual decisioning, why the moment of a payment decline is actually an opportunity to build customer trust, how i2c thinks about balancing fraud prevention with false positives, and what the rise of agentic AI means for the authorization process, and for keeping the human customer at the center of it all.In this podcast, you will learn:The evolution in Amir's thinking that led to the founding of i2c.When he realized that architecture will determine the destiny of the business.How i2c has evolved over the last 25 years.How contextual decisioning in the authorization process has become a differentiator for i2c.Where traditional infrastructure falls short in authorization decisions today.What fraud signals are the most important when balancing friction and user experience?How the industry can balance personalization and data privacy.The three segments of the market that i2c is focused on.How they are thinking about moving beyond payments.How they are planning for the world of autonomous AI agents making transactions.How far away we are from agentic commerce having significant scale.What keeps Amir excited today about the future.Connect with Fintech One-on-One: Tweet me @PeterRenton Connect with me on LinkedIn Find previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

From Krista: A few months ago, I was invited to sit with four people sharing a very different Israeli-Palestinian story than that which comes to us in headlines. They are members of the Parents Circle - Bereaved Families Forum, a very special community. It's composed of hundreds of Palestinian and Israeli families, who despite having paid the highest price of the conflict between their peoples, choose to metabolize their loss as ground of shared suffering and possible reconciliation. I'm so grateful to share that conversation with you now. You will hear their various stories of a transformation of perspective and path. You will hear me invoke a notion of "deep truth" from physics that is vividly with me in this time. Terrible ruptures and escalating violence are part of the truth of what we see ourselves capable. But they are not the whole truth, not the inevitable future. Courageous experiments in healing and transformation are also a reality of our time. In a packed room in New York City, I think we all felt like we were witnessing something unimaginable if you only judge the potentials of humanity from the extreme actions that shape what we call the news. The Bereaved Families Forum is extremism in a life-giving, heart-opening key. We left that room — and may you leave this listening — feeling a little bit healed ourselves, with a hopefulness become more magnetic and more reasonable. This event was hosted by the American Friends of the Parents Circle – Bereaved Israelis and Palestinians for Peace. My conversation partners were Robi Damelin, Arab Aramin, Mohamed Abu Jafar, and Liora Eilon. Liora, who lost her son in their kibbutz on October 7, 2023, is one of the newest members of this group.  __ Listen to Krista's original conversation with Robi Damelin and Ali Abu Awaad in the On Being podcast feed; the episode is called “No More Taking Sides”.

Motorcycles aren't meant to back up. If they were, they'd all come with reverse. Sometimes, turning around requires a little creativity—especially on dead-end trails, in parking lots, on hills, or even in your garage. In this episode of RIDER SKILLS, we have Clinton Smout walking us through a number of turnaround methods. Some you might expect, while others may raise your eyebrows—but all of them can be useful tools in your rider skills toolbox.

March 12th 2026: In this solo episode, I'm catching you up on a little bit of everything going on in my world right now. I'm sharing the surprisingly annoying thing about signing kids up for summer camps (why is it always such a competitive sport?!), what turning 41 has been feeling like for me, and why I'm making a renewed effort to get my nutrition back on track alongside CrossFit.I also talk about a shift I'm making in my content this year and what I really want my platforms to stand for: helping moms not lose themselves in motherhood. We're talking identity, hobbies, confidence, and remembering that you're a whole person outside of being someone's mom.Plus, a little life update on what I'm currently reading. I finally started Wuthering Heights, and I'm deep into two memoirs that I cannot stop thinking about.A classic Mom Room catch-up episode: a little motherhood, a little personal growth, a little pop culture, and a lot of real life.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
