Ben and Rob abduct ‘Buffalo 66', Vincent Gallo's 1998 cult drama that sits uncomfortably between love story, character study and anti movie. Starring Vincent Gallo, Christina Ricci, Ben Gazzara, Mickey Rourke and Anjelica Huston, Buffalo 66 follows a deeply broken man staging a fake relationship to impress his parents, while quietly becoming one of the strangest and most divisive romantic films of its era.What makes Buffalo 66 so unconventional when compared to traditional romantic dramas; why is this film so intensely polarising for audiences; and how much of its discomfort is deliberate rather than accidental? How does the insane real life persona of Vincent Gallo bleed into the film itself; where does performance end and self mythologising begin; and what does Buffalo 66 really mean when stripped of its controversy and reputation?CONSUUUME to find out all this and much, much more!

Send us a textAnd Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching men.”  Luke 5:10Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.” They said to him, “We will go with you.” They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.  John 21:3From Peter's first call as a disciple to the end of John (chapter 21), we see a return to the thing he was doing before Jesus found him:  fishing.  It may have been a return to what was comfortable for him and the other disciples.  It might have been finding something familiar amidst the disillusionment.  Or it might have been just not knowing where to go after he (Peter) denied Christ.  For whatever reason, Peter returns to the nets.  But when are called by Christ, we are not to return to what He calls us from...whether a life of sin or to step into a new calling.  Today's episode sets a tone for 2026:  don't go back to the nets.  What God has begun in you, continue to walk in it.  Let Him guide and direct your path.  Move closer to Him this year!

You made it to 2026. That's your do-over right there. Some people didn't get this chance. They got through 2025 and didn't make it across the finish line. But you did. So what are you going to do with it? I'm not one of those hype-y guys demanding you chase everything. I believe in building a peaceful base first. That's where control lives. That's where freedom starts. From that foundation, you operate at whatever level you want. Today, I'm giving you the MAP system I use with clients who want to design their year without the chaos. Featured Story Once a month, I run sound for my church. The first five times I was responsible for making the band sound good was brutal. Uncomfortable doesn't even cover it. I was mixing audio, sweating through every moment, second-guessing every adjustment. Now? It's like muscle memory. I show up, I know exactly what to do, and the band sounds great. What changed wasn't my talent. I built a system. I stopped having to think about every single decision and started following a repeatable process that works. That's what systemization does. It takes the hard stuff and makes it automatic. It frees up your brain for the things that actually matter. And once you have that kind of freedom, everything else gets easier. Important Points Building a peaceful base in every part of life gives you the control needed to become who you want to be. Accepting responsibility empowers everything, even when you're sitting in a corner feeling cornered by change. Planning 80% of your year ahead creates flexibility, not rigidity, because you know where you're going. Memorable Quotes "If you don't have a solid peaceful base built in, it's really hard to become the person you want to be." "Being accountable and accepting responsibility for the results will empower your success in every possible way." "Everything takes longer than you think. Make sure you set yourself up for the long haul, not the quick sprint." Scott's Three-Step Approach Start with motivation and planning. Know what you want, then map out how you'll get there with intention. Build systems that remove thinking. Systemize everything so you don't waste energy on decisions daily. Stack accomplishments for sustainable momentum. Your freedom rests on a stable foundation that repeats daily. Chapters 0:03 - You got a do-over (so what are you doing with it?) 1:30 - The MAP system for designing your year with clarity 2:46 - Why motivation comes from what you want, not why 5:09 - Building systems that remove the thinking from success Connect With Me Search for the Daily Boost on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify Email: support@motivationtomove.com Main Website: https://motivationtomove.com YouTube: https://youtube.com/dailyboostpodcast Instagram: https://instagram.com/heyscottsmith Facebook Page: https://facebook.com/motivationtomove Facebook Group: https://dailyboostpodcast.com/facebook Learn more about your ad choices.

What does “goodness” actually mean in the Christian life—and why does it feel so unclear today? In this episode of Relish, Pastor Don Patterson and Rowan Miller explore the fruit of the Spirit known as goodness, unpacking the Greek word agathosune and Jesus' teachings to show why biblical goodness is outward-facing, costly, and meant to tangibly benefit others. Rather than a private virtue or moral label, goodness is revealed as a Spirit-given way of living that brings real value to people, communities, and even those who disagree with us. This conversation challenges shallow definitions of goodness and calls believers to a faith that visibly impacts the world.

2025 was the year of the snake—a time of shedding layers, going blind in the process, and trusting that new skin would emerge. Alex reflects on the uncomfortable growth that came with letting go of old patterns, past trauma, and the identity he'd been carrying. This episode dives into self-compassion practices, why discomfort is necessary for transformation, and how embracing the unknown leads to freedom. If you're in a season of difficult change and need reassurance that shedding old skin is part of personal growth, this conversation about resilience and mindfulness will speak to you. Your turn to start the fire. Like what you heard today on Alex Perry on Fire?

Valenti began the first hour reacting to some comments from Dan Campbell, where he said all options are on the table this offseason for the Lions. In response, he questioned which uncomfortable moves Brad Holmes could make. Then, Kenny joined to do the CFB edition of "Can We Say That?"

Valenti is back and asks Lions fans if they're willing to accept the moves Brad Holmes needs to make this offseason to put them back into championship contention.

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Amina Knight for an honest and necessary conversation about racism within the Muslim community. We explore how racial bias and colorism show up in our masājid, families, institutions, and online spaces — often quietly, sometimes painfully. Dr. Knight helps us unpack why these patterns persist, how they harm individuals and fracture the idea of ummah, and what accountability, healing, and allyship can look like moving forward.

Aston Villa were bullied, outplayed, and offered nothing for an hour at Stamford Bridge. Twenty-nine percent possession. No shots. One goal down. Seasoned Villa fans were already bracing themselves.Then Unai Emery changed everything.On this My Old Man Said post-mortem show, we dissect one of the most revealing wins of the season. A game that looked dead and buried until a triple substitution flipped the script, Ollie Watkins reminded everyone what a proper centre-forward does, and Villa scored twice in a twenty-minute burst that left Chelsea flat on their backs.We get into why the first half was arguably Villa's worst of the season, how Chelsea's energy and game management exposed familiar issues, and why Emery's in-game reading of matches is now a genuine competitive advantage. There's deep discussion on Watkins' impact, the mentality shift under Emery, and the growing pattern of Villa winning games without control, possession, or apology.This isn't about pretty football or stats. It's about resilience, timing, and a team that no longer folds when things go wrong. Villa are now ten points clear of Chelsea, racking up wins from losing positions, and quietly building the foundations of a serious Champions League push.Unsustainable? Maybe. Uncomfortable? Definitely. Effective? Absolutely.UTVCheck out the Lovers Walk Unlimited Orchestra's A Holte End Christmas EP GET AD-FREE SHOWS and JOIN MATCH CLUBGet ad-free shows and extra shows, and join My Old Man Said's 24/7 Villa community, Match Club.For more details and to become a member, click here: Become a MOMS MemberJoin the show's listener facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid Chris Budd - @BUDD_musicPhillip Shaw - @prsgameMusic production & creation - David MichaelMy Old Man Said - https://www.myoldmansaid.comThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

If it feels easy, familiar, and safe, chances are—it's not changing anything.Growth has a price.And that price is discomfort.Think about it.Waking up earlier than you want to.Cutting off people you've outgrown.Saying no to distractions.Starting when you don't feel ready.Staying disciplined when motivation disappears.

In this episode, Kiki and Medinah get into one of the hardest parts of adulthood: how to say uncomfortable things with love, tact, and intention. What starts as a casual conversation quickly turns into a deeper discussion about honesty, boundaries, emotional awareness, and why so many people avoid hard conversations altogether.From awkward truths like bad breath and body odor to deeper emotional feedback that can strain friendships and relationships, the ladies unpack why delivery matters just as much as truth. They talk about when honesty is helpful versus harmful, how personal experiences shape our ability to receive feedback, and why avoidance often feels easier than vulnerability.The episode also explores relationship expectations, emotional maturity, and a listener write-in that sparks a real conversation about compatibility, communication, and knowing when something just isn't aligned. Along the way, Kiki reflects on personal growth, past embarrassment, family dynamics, and learning how to pause before reacting, especially when emotions are high.This is a funny, honest, and thought-provoking episode about growth, self-awareness, and learning how to communicate without tearing people down — or disappearing when things get uncomfortable.If you've ever struggled with telling the truth, hearing the truth, or figuring out how to say the hard thing without hurting someone, this episode is for you.Go to BrooklynBedding.com and use code COCKTALESPOD FOR 30% OFF SITEWIDE!!For all promo codes and links for promotions in the episode, follow this link: https://linktr.ee/cocktalesadsContact Us!Advice: advice@cocktalespod.comCocktales: cocktales@cocktalespod.comWeird Sex: weirdsex@cocktalespod.comLive Show Sponsorship: sales@cocktalespod.comGuest Request/ General Inquiries info@cocktalespod.comGet Your Merch & Order Your Card Game Purchase Merch And Card Game at www.imcurioustoknow.comGet Klassy Baste!

The quiet moments we crave are often the ones we judge the most. In this episode, I explore the hidden pressure to “do more,” the discomfort that rises when we finally slow down, and the tender journey of learning to rest without guilt. If you've ever questioned whether your slower seasons still have value, this conversation will feel like a breath of relief.What part of your life is asking you to soften today?Related episodes to explore:•⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 162: Embracing Life's Duality: Beauty & Mess - https://youtu.be/dCM0y6P6JfQ• 158: 8 Weeks in Bali: The Truth About Moving Abroad - https://youtu.be/Ee6dbNiMNJ4

High achiever burnout often shows up as restlessness, not collapse. In this episode, Julie Holly explains why rest feels unsafe for high performers and how identity-level recalibration helps the nervous system relearn safety without speed.Why does rest feel uncomfortable — even threatening — for so many high-capacity humans?In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly explores why high achievers often struggle to slow down, even after burnout, success, or external pressure has eased. For many leaders, rest doesn't feel restorative — it feels activating. The body tightens. The mind accelerates. Stillness feels wrong.This episode explains why.Drawing from nervous system science, predictive processing, and neuroception, Julie reveals how a dysregulated system can treat achievement like oxygen. When early experiences, leadership roles, or repeated responsibility taught the body that speed prevented problems and productivity created safety, the nervous system learned to equate motion with survival.The result is a familiar pattern:burnout recovery that still feels restlessdecision fatigue even during “downtime”role confusion when pressure liftssuccess without fulfillmentspiritual exhaustion masked as productivityJulie weaves in the work of Viktor Frankl, founder of Logotherapy, who discovered that when meaning anchors the nervous system, urgency loosens its grip. Frankl's insight helps reframe rest not as passivity, but as presence — a regulated state where clarity and purpose can emerge without constant speed.This episode does not offer another mindset trick or productivity hack. Instead, it introduces Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) — not a surface-level solution, but the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective again. ILR helps the body relearn safety from alignment, not adrenaline.Faith-forward but invitational, this conversation reassures listeners that discomfort during rest is not failure — it's a system in transition, learning that belonging no longer has to be earned through motion.Today's Micro RecalibrationQuietly say to yourself:My body can learn safety without speed.Notice what happens in your body.

In this episode of Business Brain, you're challenged to stop playing it safe and start leaning into the discomfort that drives real growth. You explore why staying comfortable is often the biggest limiter in business, and how intentional unease sharpens your thinking, strengthens decision-making, and exposes opportunities you'd otherwise miss. When you choose discomfort on your terms, you regain control instead of letting fear make the calls for you. You'll learn how to reframe uncomfortable moments as signals—not stop signs—and use them to build resilience, confidence, and momentum. By pushing just past what feels easy, you create space for better habits, smarter risks, and a truly Charmed Life in business. The message is clear: if you want progress, comfort can't be the goal—growth has to be. 00:00:00 Business Brain – The Entrepreneurs' Podcast #712 for Wednesday, December 24th, 2025 December 24th: National Eggnog Day 00:01:15 Make sure to scare yourself often Take the meeting Do the thing you haven't done Step outside of your comfort zone Find the uncomfortable, and say “yes.” Eat Terry Black's Barbecue (ok, this is a safe bet!) “Everything I want is on the other side of being uncomfortable” 00:13:27 SPONSOR: Rula patients typically pay $15 per session when using insurance.

The recent Vanity Fair portraits by Christopher Anderson sparked an unprecedented reaction across the creative world. Some called them powerful. Others called them "bad photos." In this episode of Beyond the Image, James Patrick breaks down why that criticism reveals more about viewer expectations than photographic quality. From extreme close-ups and intentional lighting choices to the role of honesty, narrative, and authorship, this conversation explores what actually defines a successful photograph. We unpack why photography is a form of storytelling, why not every image is meant to flatter, and why some of the most important photographs in history are uncomfortable to look at. The episode also examines what this moment says about AI, creative intent, and the ethical decisions that still separate human-made work from generated imagery. This is not political commentary. It's photographic commentary. https://jamespatrick.com/

In Episode 464: The Bigfoot, The Witch, and The Dogman we are joined by Erick Szilagyi from the uNcomfortable podcast. Erick was connected to me by Joel from VanTesla, who has been a guest on Erick's show several times. Erick comes to the table with many experiences to share, but it was his experience with a witch that kicks off the show. Erick was just beginning his podcast and got connected to a witch who was willing join his show for a conversation. Erick decided to meet up with her in person to record, and that meeting turned into dinner plus more. What then ensues Erick describes as one of the most bizarre nights of his life. From Bigfoot coming close to their location, unexplainable vocalizations, unnatural hyper-sexualized tensions, to dogman guarding the witch and the witch herself physically transforming before Erick's eyes! Needless to say, he has a jaw-dropping story. Following the initial episode, we decided to do an Overtime segment for members that lasted almost three hours! Erick shares all his other experiences and they are just as bizarre as the first hour, including a story that is so personally sensitive for him that we can't speak or even hint about it publicly.

This episode of The Automotive Truth Podcast goes far beyond the garage.We reflect on a tragic moment felt across the NASCAR community, while honoring Greg Biffle's humanitarian efforts and the powerful impact he's made during times of disaster. The conversation then shifts into controversial literature in public schools, raising serious concerns about the direction of modern education and how it's influencing today's children.From there, we dive into automotive news and wild real-world stories, including a gas station mishap and unexpected junkyard finds—before closing with a reminder that acts of kindness and community still matter, even in divisive times.

​Do Not Adjust Your Pod! — with Steve Otis Gunn

People keep telling me building my own platform is a mistake.That I look foolish.That I'm stigmatizing myself.That this is “not what serious people do.”And I hear it. It rings in my ears because it usually comes from the same people.Here's the thing though.If there were a better way to build something like R3ciprocity, I would do it.If there were a shortcut, a cleaner path, a way to pay my way around this, I would have taken it.I've been in school longer than many people have been alive.I study organizations, learning, innovation, and failure for a living.You don't need to be brilliant to see this. You just need to be honest.The only way this gets built is by showing up.Out loud.In public.One day at a time.I hear people say, “I don't care about that kind of thing.”But you do.I know you do because you never take the opportunity when it's right in front of you.We are the first humans in the history of our species with this level of digital infrastructure.Anyone. Anywhere. Zero gatekeepers.And most people freeze.Why?Because they're terrified of looking foolish.Terrified of being judged.Terrified someone will say, “Why are you doing this?”I see it every day in my classes.I ask someone to stand up and try something small.Low risk. Low stakes.And the moment arrives, it shuts down.“I can't.”“That's uncomfortable.”“That's not what I'm supposed to do.”That's the point.I've posted 6,200+ videos on YouTube over roughly 10 years.Every single time, I get nervous.Every single time, I wonder how I'll be perceived.And I still press publish.Not because I want to be famous.Not because I think this is easy.But because no one before us has ever had this opportunity to build, learn, connect, and grow like this.Why wouldn't I take it?Why wouldn't you?

“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” — African proverbIn today's episode, "Here's an Uncomfortable Idea: Want More Success? Be Less Independent," host Jacquette offers candid and vulnerable insight into why fierce independence may actually be holding you back.She challenges the myth that success is a solo pursuit, urging listeners to lean into interdependence instead. Nothing thrives in isolation—not even nature. True growth comes from collaboration, delegation, and the sharing of wisdom. If you want to succeed in money, business, and life, embrace the people and resources that fuel your journey. Independence has its place, but when paired with interdependence, it becomes a force strong enough to overcome even the toughest obstacles.For Clarity: https://www.jacquettetimmons.com/1-1-coaching www.jacquettetimmons.comwww.jacquettetimmons.com/digital-productswww.instagram.com/jacquettemtimmonsBuyMeACoffee.com/JacquetteSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome back to another episode of the Couple Casuals Podcast!In this episode, Stefano sits down once again with Mario (4TheNorth) — one of Canada's most influential political commentators — for a wide-ranging, no-nonsense conversation about where the country is heading and why so many Canadians feel left behind.Mario breaks down how Canada reached this moment: unchecked government spending, distorted economic data, unsustainable immigration levels, and a political system that increasingly avoids accountability. From youth unemployment and part-time job manipulation, to food bank usage hitting record highs, he explains why the official narrative no longer matches everyday reality.In this conversation, Stefano and Mario dig into:• why Canadians across all backgrounds feel “cheated” by the system• how immigration policy is straining housing, healthcare, and wages• why economic “job growth” isn't what it appears to be• how government spending is being reclassified to mask massive deficits• why political trust is collapsing — and why independent voices are growing• Mark Carney's leadership, continuity from Trudeau, and what may come nextMario also explains why he has no interest in becoming a politician, despite massive influence — and why speaking freely outside the system may be more powerful than holding office inside it.This episode is candid, fact-driven, and grounded in lived reality — a must-watch for anyone trying to understand Canadian politics beyond headlines and spin.Grab a casual, lock in, and let's get into it.Host: Stefano (stefo)Instagram: @drstefohttps://www.instagram.com/drstefo?igs...Guest: Mario Zelaya Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mario4thenorth?igsh=MXc2YTNlNmRta2N2NA==TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@officialmariozelaya?_r=1&_t=ZS-92JJpiCu5siX: https://x.com/mario4thenorth?s=21&t=Cgz_58zASW84g-pj2PUNtwThis episode is brought to you by Canada First — secure your home with Canada's best home fortification.

 In this episode of the podcast, we explore those seasons in life when something just doesn't feel right—when discomfort lingers, but we're not quite sure what to do about it. These moments can feel heavy or confusing, especially when we silence the voice of curiosity. Often, when we stop being curious, we also stop exploring new perspectives. We fall into autopilot, tolerate discomfort, or assume there's no solution—just "A or B," black or white, this or that. But what if there's a third way? We share three key lessons that can help you begin to move through uncertainty: 1) Listen Closely to What People Tell You Sometimes, others notice things about our lives before we do. Their words can be mirrors. Instead of brushing them off, consider whether there's truth in their observations. You might uncover a blind spot or a possibility you hadn't seen. 2) Don't Limit Yourself to Either/Or Thinking When facing a difficult decision, we often trap ourselves into thinking there are only two options. What if, instead, you asked: What's option C? Or what if I could take the best of both A and B and create a hybrid solution? Expanding the field of possibility can open unexpected and more aligned paths. 3) Recreate and Gain Clarity We often don't allow ourselves to follow a journey fully. We may start planning or designing a change but hesitate to commit to a clear direction. Yet clarity is powerful—it acts like a roadmap. When you gain clarity about your needs, goals, or values, things tend to flow more easily and move forward with surprising speed. It's not about forcing the path but allowing yourself to walk it step by step, with purpose. Discomfort is often the starting point of transformation—not something to fear, but something to examine. Join us as we talk through how embracing curiosity and clarity can turn uncertainty into opportunity.

Noelle loves Christmas ... time with family, delicious food and gifts under the tree! What's not to love? Well, (as Noelle discovers) getting a gift you didn't ask for and didn't want feels pretty bad. Uncomfortable feelings come flooding in when she opens the gift in question. Was she stupid for imagining Christmas could be perfect? She feels so disappointed. Fortunately Shelly knows a thing or two about disappointment and 'bad' gifts - she's even written a song about it. Does getting a gift you didn't want, ruin Christmas? Is there a way to deal with disappointment? What even is a 'bad' gift? Listen to find out.DISCLAIMER: Shelly gets carried away singing about her teeth in the song "full enough cup", but tortoises don't in fact have teeth. Can't blame an ancient tortoise for letting the truth get in the way of a good narrative drive in a song!!

In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with Scott Boatwright, the CEO of Chipotle Mexican Grill. Chipotle, of course, needs no introduction, but to some degree Scott did last year when he was suddenly thrust into the CEO role after his former boss Brian Niccol left for the chief executive job at Starbucks. Scott has spent his whole career in restaurants, spending the bulk of his early years helping turn around Arby's before joining Chipotle as COO in 2017. The year since Scott was named CEO has been arguably one of the toughest in the company's history, as it has dealt with flat sales and traffic and an overly saturated fast-casual competitive field. Sam recently sat down with Scott in a Midtown Manhattan Chipotle as part of NRN's Signature Series, powered by The Coca-Cola Company, to learn more about his career, his leadership style, and what he thinks will help Chipotle become a global iconic brand. In this conversation, you'll find out why:Uncomfortable moments create positive career growthStudy the role you aspire to have Your best shot at winning is to double down on what made you special in the first place Your whole organization has to row in the same direction to get to your destinationAccurately identify your problem before you start chasing solutions CEOs are storytellers as much as they are business leadersHave feedback or ideas for Take-Away?
