Start Your Transformation Now Fear is not who you are, it is what you have been taught. In this episode of The Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim dismantles one of the most deeply held illusions people carry: that fear is natural and unavoidable. Through vivid examples, from the moment of birth to decades of economic conditioning absorbed at the dinner table, Jim makes it undeniable that the fears running most people's lives were never theirs to begin with. They were handed down through media, culture, and a world obsessed with scarcity. And the reason these fears feel so real is because they have been running unquestioned for so long. Jim draws a clear distinction between managing fear and transcending it. The real issue is forgetting. Forgetting who and what you truly are. When someone loses that connection to source, they automatically slip into victimhood, competition, and the grinding weight of what Jim calls a "beast of burden." That is not the human condition. That is the conditioned human. You are not broken. You have simply forgotten. And it is time to remember. What You'll Discover in This Episode: (02:15) The illusion behind every fear — The fears people carry about money, health, and collapse are not reality but imaginary threats — hallucinations born from inherited conditioning that most people have never stopped to question. (07:18) You were born trusting — then taught to fear — Jim uses the image of an infant in the birth canal to illustrate that fear is a learned behavior, not a built-in one, and that the natural human state is deep trust and knowing. (13:34) The media machine feeding your anxiety — Daily consumption of news and social media conditions the brain into perpetual anxiety — and why Jim personally stepped away from most of it entirely. (20:06) Source is greater than any obstacle — The soul — not the body or personality — is the ultimate power in any situation, and recognizing yourself as a reflection of source changes the entire framework through which you experience fear. (27:31) It is not about managing fear — it is about knowing yourself out of it — Fear is not a problem to be fixed. It is a symptom of forgetting, and the only true solution is reconnecting to who you really are. (31:26) The seven-day detox challenge — A full seven-day fast from news, social media, and all negativity inputs, designed to clear the space so that the voice of source can finally be heard again. Listen, apply, and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway The fears you carry were never yours. They were absorbed in childhood, amplified by media, and repeated so many times they came to feel like truth. But a fever is not your natural state. When it breaks, the body returns to health automatically, because health was always there. The same is true of you. You are not a small, struggling human fighting for scraps. You are the intelligence of the universe. The same source that beats your heart and heals every wound without a single conscious thought. The moment you stop consuming the world's narratives and reconnect to source, the fear does not need to be managed. It simply has nowhere left to live.

We live in a world that celebrates freedom from limits—but what if those limits are part of our design? What if the emptiness so many experience is not random, but the result of living against the very nature we were created with?In this episode, we explore the idea that “unnatural deeds do breed unnatural troubles,” tracing the consequences of rejecting God's design—from cultural confusion to personal emptiness. Drawing from Scripture and the tragic vision of Macbeth, we consider how a life untethered from truth ultimately collapses into meaninglessness.But that is not the end of the story.There is one who entered into our disorder, bore our guilt, and made a way for restoration. If life feels empty, there is a reason—and there is a way back.

(Previously: Prologue.) Corrigibility as a term of art in AI alignment was coined as a word to refer to a property of an AI being willing to let its preferences be modified by its creator. Corrigibility in this sense was believed to be a desirable but unnatural property that would require more theoretical progress to specify, let alone implement. Desirable, because if you don't think you specified your AI's preferences correctly the first time, you want to be able to change your mind (by changing its mind). Unnatural, because we expect the AI to resist having its mind changed: rational agents should want to preserve their current preferences, because letting their preferences be modified would result in their current preferences being less fulfilled (in expectation, since the post-modification AI would no longer be trying to fulfill them). Another attractive feature of corrigibility is that it seems like it should in some sense be algorithmically simpler than the entirety of human values. Humans want lots of specific, complicated things out of life (friendship and liberty and justice and sex and sweets, et cetera, ad infinitum) which no one knows how to specify and would seem arbitrary to a [...] ---Outline:(03:21) The Constitutions Definition of Corrigibility Is Muddled(06:24) Claude Take the Wheel(15:10) It Sounds Like the Humans Are Begging The original text contained 1 footnote which was omitted from this narration. --- First published: March 16th, 2026 Source: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/K2Ae2vmAKwhiwKEo5/terrified-comments-on-corrigibility-in-claude-s-constitution --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.
If you had been at the Glastonbury Festival in 1987, you may have seen a familiar silhouette emerging in the dawn light - upright monoliths arranged in a circle. Was it Stonehenge - magically transferred here across the Salisbury plain? No, it was ‘Carhenge'- a circle of upright cars, their chassis standing like monoliths, the archaeology of the automobile age And imagine ‘Tankhenge', a gateway made from abandoned Soviet tanks assembled in Berlin just after the fall of the Berlin Wall — the wreckage of the Cold War turned into a piece of anarchic sculpture Or imagine a huge mechanical creature crawling across the desert at the Burning Man festival in Nevada These strange and spectacular visions all come from the same source: The Mutoid Waste Company— a collective that, since the early 1980s, has been transforming the debris of industrial civilisation into giant sculptures, mutant vehicles and temporary worlds built from waste. This is the first part of our conversation with Joe Rush, the artist at the centre of it all. It takes us into the world of late 1970s West London, the punk years, the alternative communities and squats of the People's Republic of Frestonia, and the signpist along the way to becoming a Mutoid... And if you're listening in March 2026 it coincides with the opening of his latest exhibition -Unnatural - at The Bomb Factory Photograph: Courtesy of Guy Mayhew #BureauOfLostCulture #JoeRush #MutoidWaste #ScrapArt #IndustrialArt #BurningManArt #Counterculture #RecycledArt #PostIndustrial #UndergroundCulture

What if the Great Fire of London wasn't a tragic accident… but a designed event? This Sunday, Feb 8th, researcher Gloria Moss joins us to peel back the layers of 1666 — a year that quietly reshaped Britain's power structure, legal system, and even its population. The official story is simple. Too simple. And the deeper you look, the stranger it gets. We explore the possibility that the Great Fire wasn't just a blaze… but a reset. Topics to explore:

Synopsis: The natural and blessed state of marriage and fruitfulness were violated to produce great evil on earth. God moves against this evil while graciously leaving a way of escape from his wrath. Moses is not only explaining to Israel where sin ultimately leads but is preparing them to fight the giants in the Promised Land. The giants are mighty but mortal. All men deserve God's wrath and the only escape is God's unmerited favor. Sermon Text: Genesis 6:1-8

Unnatural Disasters: Why Most Responses to Risk and Climate Change Fail But Some Succeed (Columbia UP, 2021) offers a new perspective on our most pressing environmental and social challenges, revealing the gaps between abstract concepts like sustainability, resilience, and innovation and the real-world experiences of people living at risk. Gonzalo Lizarralde explains how the causes of disasters are not natural but all too human: inequality, segregation, marginalization, colonialism, neoliberalism, racism, and unrestrained capitalism. He tells the stories of Latin American migrants, Haitian earthquake survivors, Canadian climate activists, African slum dwellers, and other people resisting social and environmental injustices around the world. Lizarralde shows that most reconstruction and risk-reduction efforts exacerbate social inequalities.

Most business owners head into a new year chasing big goals and big growth, while quietly ignoring the numbers that actually determine whether the business wins or bleeds. In this episode of The Idaho Business Podcast, we break down why profits are unnatural, why they disappear without discipline, and how reviewing your KPI's, P&L, and balance sheet at year-end gives you real leverage going into the new year. We walk through the 2–3% Rule—how small, intentional improvements in turnover, pricing, and expense control can create massive, compounding results. You'll hear practical examples, including what reducing employee turnover by just 3% can do for a 50-person team, and how a modest 2–3% price increase across 90 customers can add tens of thousands of dollars to your bottom line. This isn't about working harder or chasing a miracle year. It's about tightening standards, assigning ownership, and making disciplined decisions that protect profit and strengthen your business for long-term growth. If you're serious about running a cleaner, more profitable business—and not just a busy one—this episode is your starting point.

A romantic suspense with a twisted component that has us breaking down the darker side of humanity. This is a thrilling story with beautiful redemption for the MCs.
In the spring of 1972, a man chasing gold and glory ventured deep into the Yukon wilderness, dreaming of striking it rich. But what began as a hopeful mining expedition soon unraveled into a two-month nightmare that would haunt him for the rest of his life. Fresh from Vietnam and toughened by work on the Alaska Pipeline, he believed no wilderness could break him. When he purchased the mineral rights to an abandoned 1950s claim—once owned by a prospector named Dutch Hanson who mysteriously vanished after a promising start—he ignored every red flag. Gold fever clouded his judgment, and soon he would realize the true cost of his ambition. After flying into a remote valley with a bush pilot, he built a cabin and began working his sluice box along a promising creek bend. The gold was there—steady and consistent, just as Hanson's notes promised. But something was wrong. The forest was unnaturally quiet. No birds. No bears. No life at all.Then came the night screams. Unnatural wails echoed through the valley, rising and falling with a haunting, almost human cadence. The sounds were answered from multiple directions, as though the darkness itself were alive. He tried to rationalize it—wolves, perhaps—but deep down he knew better. Soon, massive spruce trees began snapping eight feet above the ground, sheared off with tremendous force. Then came the knocks—sharp, rhythmic wood-on-wood impacts echoing through the valley, back and forth, as if some unknown intelligence were communicating.One afternoon, while working the creek, he heard a rapid series of popping sounds surrounding him—mouth clicks, moving in a circle, coordinated and deliberate. Something was out there. Watching. Stalking. Thinking. The proof came in the form of tracks—eighteen inches long, five toes, a five-foot stride. Too human to be a bear, too large to belong to any known species. And then, the unthinkable: he turned at the water's edge to find an eight-foot creature watching him from the treeline. Covered in dark, shaggy hair with a conical head and intelligent eyes, it showed no fear—only dominance. When it struck a nearby tree with a thunderous slap, others answered from the forest. He was surrounded. That night, the creatures attacked. Rocks rained down on his cabin for hours, splintering wood and shaking the structure. Multiple voices filled the night—the deep, resonant roar of the alpha male, the shrill screams of the female, and the higher-pitched cries of a juvenile.They circled his camp, making it clear he was not welcome. By dawn, his camp was destroyed. Tools twisted, the sluice box shattered, and every ounce of gold gone. The message was unmistakable: leave.He fled the valley, trailed by the creatures' heavy knocks and distant cries. At the final creek crossing, the massive male appeared once more—silent, watchful, ensuring he never returned.He never did.Because some places aren't meant for humans, some fortunes aren't worth the price, and some legends should remain undisturbed in the wild.This is the story of one man's hunt for Yukon gold… and the terrifying encounter that made him believe in something that shouldn't exist.

Let's talk about what happens when your sexy yes becomes a confusing no. A listener wrote in about a little pegging predicament, and you know I couldn't resist pulling this one apart
Unnatural celebrity deaths and unnaturally celebrated murders pockmark the history of Los Angeles, looming as large in the public imagination as the Hollywood stars themselves. Death in Paradise is the first authorized history of the Los Angeles Coroner's Office, revisiting the most culturally significant and forensically complex cases of accidental death, suicide or murder of the famous. It documents the notorious deaths of Senator Robert Kennedy, Marilyn Monroe, Sharon Tate, Janis Joplin and many others, providing an unflinching view of Tinseltown's dark, even perverse underbelly.Brad Schreiber, who wrote the original hardcover for book packager Tony Blanche, has updated many of the fascinating cases in Death in Paradise and added new photographs for this e-book edition. Schreiber, who created the truTV series North Mission Road inspired by this book, also presents some of the lesser-known but most puzzling deaths in the history of Hollywood. Did 1930s comedy film star Thelma Todd accidentally die of carbon monoxide poisoning in her own garage, commit suicide or was she killed by the jealous lover who locked her out of her own house? Death in Paradise highlights the bizarre as well as the renowned. There's the story of a funhouse dummy that got broken during a TV show filming, only to reveal the mummy of a Wild West gunslinger underneath. Or how about the murderer of a woman who was caught, based upon the ingredients in the exotic cocktail found in his victim's stomach?In addition to these mind-bending investigations, Death in Paradise summarizes the surprising origins of early historical medical examiners, the development of forensic science and, of course, the rise of the Los Angeles County Department of Coroner, the most technologically advanced in the world…and the only one with its own gift shop. https://amzn.to/4mcilYBBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
We are hearing Alyssa's story in today's episode. She shares her experience with postpartum anxiety, depression, and OCD, as well as her lifelong battle for mental health. We've discussed many times on the podcast that a history of mental health issues is a significant risk factor for perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. Because Alyssa did not get the help she needed when she needed it most, she has become a passionate advocate and supporter of other moms and families facing these issues. Alyssa Verge is a 31-year-old mom of a two-year-old and the stepmom of an eight-year-old. After her child was born, she was diagnosed with postpartum depression and anxiety and eventually with postpartum OCD. She's passionate about mental health and healing generational trauma. Show Highlights: The birth story of Alyssa's son, when she felt the “baby blues” immediately after his birth Being told everything she was feeling was “normal,” even though she was sincere and open about her experience Alyssa's husband finally found a therapist for her because he knew this couldn't be normal. Alyssa's relief when she found out her feelings weren't normal, and she was diagnosed with postpartum depression and anxiety The prevalence of OCD, which wasn't identified for several months Unnatural fears about leaving the house and getting sick OCD was manifested in her body's refusal to take medication, even though it was what she wanted to do to get better. Therapy tools that didn't help for Alyssa: exposure therapy, scripts, positive brain talk Feeling guilty for being a burden and not being able to get better Finding balance in looking for support, with boundaries Alyssa's advice to others about accepting “normal,” having patience, and finding help Resources: Connect with Alyssa Verge: Instagram Call the National Maternal Mental Health Hotline at 1-833-TLC-MAMA or visit cdph.ca.gov Please find resources in English and Spanish at Postpartum Support International, or by phone/text at 1-800-944-4773.

As Trump and Elon continue their online slap fight, we stay focused on the massive tax bill that will take from the working class to provide an astronomical budget for ICE and border patrol, along with tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy. From eliminating loan options for the already burdensome endeavor of pursuing higher education in America, to ensuring a sharp decline in Medicaid eligibility, the effects of this bill will be felt for generations. While Pam Bondi's DOJ continues its pursuit of Kilmar Abrego Garcia and declares the Epstein files nonexistent, we take a moment to learn about her colleague, Emil Bove, and the whistleblower case about him. With details continuing to emerge about the deadly floods across central Texas, meteorologists point out where the failure to warn people on the ground seems to have happened. An open letter from EPA staff that warned of the consequences of undercutting environmental protections resulted in harsh blowback, all while DEI ultimatums for academia and public schools continue.Find your representatives at USA.GOV and/or the "5 Calls" app and contact them, often.

We usually think of life as the most natural thing there is – blooming plants, flowing water, the cycles of nature. But what if that perspective is fundamentally challenged by the very laws of physics that govern our universe? On this ID The Future, host Andrew McDiarmid welcomes physicist Dr. Eric Hedin to the podcast to discuss the compelling idea that life is the most "unnatural" thing in the universe. Dr. Hedin contends that the complex, organized nature of life defies the natural tendency of matter and energy towards disorder and equilibrium, suggesting that life requires something only an intelligent designer could provide.
