This episode might make you ruffle your feathers. If it does, it means I'm hitting a nerve that needs to be hit. Here's what I'm NOT going to do:Pretend that your sticker charts are helpingAct like time-outs are teaching life lessonsTell you that you just need the "right" punishment systemHere's what I AM going to do: Call out the fact that we've been duped. Manipulated. Sold a lie by two dudes in lab coats who literally thought your child's brain works the same as a pigeon's. I'm not even kidding. BF Skinner actually said: "Give me a child and I'll shape him into anything." Your child. A blank slate. Just waiting to be programmed with the right combination of rewards and punishments. Feeling sick yet? You should be.  I used to be you. Consequence Queen. Time-out Tyrant. The mom who had read all the books and had all the systems. And then one day, it hits me: I'm using the EXACT SAME METHODS on my kids that I use on my poodle. Sit = treat. Come = treat. Stop barking = treat. Clean room = sticker. Do homework = screen time. Stop fighting = avoid punishment. The kicker? My dog was better trained than my kids. At least she came when I called.

Normally, this kind of jaw-dropping rabbit hole is reserved just for our Patreon supporters—but today, we're unlocking it for everyone.In 1968, Irishman Mick Meaney decided to let himself be buried alive for 61 days in a Guinness record stunt that captured international attention…and caused his pregnant wife to find out via the radio. In this bonus episode, Shea welcomes special guest Kevin Ryan, host of Tyrant in Training Podcast and a fellow member of our Umbrella Podcast Collective, to explore:The surprisingly popular 1960s fad of human burial endurance contestsThe bizarre safety coffins that people invented to avoid being buried alive by accidentEdgar Allan Poe's stories—and real-life fears—of premature burialThe transatlantic rivalry with Texan “Living Corpse” Bill WhiteAnd how Mick Meaney's stunt became a moment of Irish legend

Blue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/pixellitpod.com Instagram: https://instagram.com/pixellitpod Book Synopsis "Zombies. Mutant animals. Bioengineered weapons and surgically enhanced monsters. Secret labs and widespread conspiracies. It seemed impossible, but Jill Valentine and her teammates among the S.T.A.R.S. had seen it all firsthand when the Umbrella Corporation turned Raccoon City into a staging ground for the most insidious genetic experiments ever conceived. After all she's been through, Valentine is ready to leave that remote mountain community forever. But Umbrella isn't finished with Raccoon City. Too much evidence of their unethical and immoral research still exists. It must be recovered or destroyed -- and quickly -- before it can be traced back to Umbrella. And with William Birkin's mutagenic virus already spreading through the city like wildfire, drastic measures are needed. Under cover of night, mercenary teams have entered the city, along with something else -- Umbrella's failsafe: an evolved version of its Tyrant-class killing machines, a lethal creature code-named Nemesis. Now Nemesis is on the hunt. And Jill Valentine is about to become prey."

Send us a textJoin Professor Jeffrey Sachs and Professor James Romm, classicist and historian at Bard College, for a captivating discussion on one of the most dramatic and fascinating political experiments of the ancient world: Plato's involvement with power politics in Syracuse (Siracusa). Drawing on Romm's newest book, Plato and the Tyrant, Sachs and Romm explore the extraordinary story of how the great philosopher Plato attempted over the course of three decades to bring philosophy into the heart of government.Together, they delve into Plato's journey to the court of the autocratic ruler Dionysius in ancient Syracuse, where he hoped to transform a tyrant into a philosopher-king. They discuss the political turmoil that unfolded, Plato's close relationship with the philosophically minded Dion, and how Plato's experiences deeply shaped his writing of The Republic.  Romm reveals how Plato's real-world political experiences ultimately informed his later, more sober work The Laws, and how these texts reflect a lifelong quest to define justice, leadership, and the possibility of a virtuous society.This episode offers listeners a rich narrative of political intrigue, philosophical ambition, and the enduring relevance of Plato's quest to unite ethics and power - an ancient story with striking implications for our world today.The Book Club with Jeffrey Sachs is brought to you by the SDG Academy, the flagship education initiative of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network.

5/8: Plato and the Tyrant: The Fall of Greece's Greatest Dynasty and the Making of a Philosophic by James Romm (Author) 1787 DEATH OF SOCRATES https://www.amazon.com/Plato-Tyrant-Greatest-Philosophic-Masterpiece/dp/1324093188/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0 Plato is one of history's most influential thinkers, the "sublime philosopher" whose writings remain foundational to Western culture. He is known for the brilliant dialogues in which he depicted his teacher, Socrates, discussing ethical truths with prominent citizens of Athens. Yet the image we have of Plato—an ethereal figure far removed from society and politics, who conjured abstract ideas in peaceful groves—is a fiction, created by Plato's admirers and built up over centuries. In fact, Plato was very much a man of the world. In Plato and the Tyrant, acclaimed historian and classicist James Romm draws on personal letters of Plato—documents that have long been kept in obscurity—to show how a philosopher helped topple the leading Greek power of the era: the opulent city of Syracuse. There, Plato encountered two authoritarian rulers, a father and son both named Dionysius, and tried to steer them toward philosophy. At the same time, he worked on his masterpiece, Republic, in which he conceived a ruler who unites perfect wisdom with absolute power. That dream has echoed down through the ages and given rise to a famous term, one that Plato himself didn't actually use: philosopher-king. As Romm reveals, Plato's time in Syracuse helped shape Republic—and also had disastrous results for Plato himself and for all of Greek Sicily. The younger Dionysius, emotionally unstable but intellectually curious, welcomed Plato with open arms, but soon the relationship soured. Plato's close friendship with Dionysius's uncle, Dion—possibly a bond of romantic love—created a rift in the ruling family that led to a chaotic civil war. Combining thrilling political drama with explorations of Plato's most cherished ideas, Romm takes us into the heart of Greece's late classical age, a time when many believed that democracy had failed. Plato's search for solutions led him to write his fervent plea for a new political order, and also led him to a place where he believed his theories might be put into practice. But Plato and the Tyrant demonstrates how Plato's experiment with enlightened autocracy spiraled into catastrophe, and also gives us nothing less than a new account of the origins of Western political thought.

There, Plato encountered two authoritarian rulers, a father and son both named Dionysius, and tried to steer them toward philosophy. At the same time, he worked on his masterpiece, Republic, in which he conceived a ruler who unites perfect wisdom with absolute power. That dream has echoed down through the ages and given rise to a famous term, one that Plato himself didn't actually use: philosopher-king. As Romm reveals, Plato's time in Syracuse helped shape Republic—and also had disastrous results for Plato himself and for all of Greek Sicily. The younger Dionysius, emotionally unstable but intellectually curious, welcomed Plato with open arms, but soon the relationship soured. Plato's close friendship with Dionysius's uncle, Dion—possibly a bond of romantic love—created a rift in the ruling family that led to a chaotic civil war. Combining thrilling political drama with explorations of Plato's most cherished ideas, Romm takes us into the heart of Greece's late classical age, a time when many believed that democracy had failed. Plato's search for solutions led him to write his fervent plea for a new political order, and also led him to a place where he believed his theories might be put into practice. But Plato and the Tyrant demonstrates how Plato's experiment with enlightened autocracy spiraled into catastrophe, and also gives us nothing less than a new account of the origins of Western political thought.

Emperor Nero, who ruled Rome from 54 to 68 AD, remains one of history's most controversial figures. Known for his love of music, poetry, and theatre, he supported the arts and banned bloodshed in the circus. He reduced taxes, gave rights to slaves, and provided aid to disaster-struck cities. Yet, Nero's reign also descended into violence, scandal, and extravagance. He was accused of murdering his mother, two wives, and many political rivals. His passion for performance often clashed with imperial duties, and his costly lifestyle drained the empire's treasury. The Great Fire of Rome in 64 AD further darkened his legacy, with rumors accusing him of setting the blaze. Despite his flaws, many commoners mourned his death, showing he wasn't hated by all. Ancient sources, written long after his death, may have exaggerated his faults. This show explores both the artist and the tyrant behind the crown

What happens when a philosopher tries to change the world—not through words, but by shaping a king? In this episode, we sit down with James Romm, classical historian and author of Plato and the Tyrant, a gripping narrative about Plato's dramatic real-world attempt to bring his philosophical ideals to life in the court of the tyrant Dionysius of Syracuse. Through ambition, betrayal, and idealism, Romm explores the tensions between power and wisdom—and why even Plato wasn't immune to the seductions of political influence.

Written in just one month during 2020 but published for the 2024 election cycle, this compact, fast-paced satire examines what America's founding ideals mean in an era of personality cults and constitutional crises.• Washington was chosen as protagonist because he established the two-term precedent, prioritizing democracy over personal power• The tyrant character is infuriated by Washington's omnipresence on American currency, highlighting his obsession with fame and status• Modern politics has abandoned character for team loyalty, exactly what the founders warned against in the Federalist Papers• Digital distraction and smartphone addiction parallel political dysfunction, both diminishing our capacity for critical thinking• Protests across America show growing awareness of democratic erosion, though media coverage often focuses only on isolated violence• Book aims to puncture political bubbles, appealing to readers across the political spectrum concerned about democratic normsFind "The Third Term" available now on Amazon and at independent bookstores, with an audiobook releasing soon.

And with William Birkin's mutagenic virus already spreading through the city like wildfire, drastic measures are needed.

Now Nemesis is on the hunt. And Jill Valentine is about to become prey."

My guest is Fyodor Tertitskiy, a prolific scholar, polyglot, and one of the few who reads the footnotes of history in multiple languages. His new book, Accidental Tyrant, a biography of Kim Il Sung, challenges the official state mythology and unearths the improbable rise of a guerrilla fighter turned dynastic dictator. This is how Kim Il Sung outwitted imperialists, communists, comrades, and colonels alike, turning chance into legacy, failure into foundation. But the question remains: what does this all mean for those of us living in a world still shaped by the ghosts of his decisions?  Buy Fyodor's latest book here: https://www.amazon.com/Accidental-Tyrant-Life-Kim-sung/dp/0197800882 David A.
