Yael and Schwab dig into one of the most fascinating artifacts of Jewish antiquity: the Babylonian incantation bowls. These 5th–6th century earthenware bowls, found primarily in modern-day Iraq, were used by Jews—and their neighbors—as magical amulets to ward off demons, secure love, boost fertility, and protect homes. The conversation explores how these artifacts reflect the everyday concerns of Jews in late antiquity, how they blur the line between halacha and magic, and what they reveal about cultural exchange across ancient religions. Whether you're into Jewish magic, rabbinic history, or just want to know how to trap a demon in your cereal bowl, this episode has you covered.

In this week's episode of Wolves Unpacked, James Bird and Wolves legend Dave Edwards unpick Wolverhampton Wanderers' thrilling 4-2 victory over Tottenham Hotspur, making it four wins in a row in the Premier League. From a vibrant Molineux atmosphere with an end-of-season vibe, to how Vitor Pereiera's side completely outwitted Spurs' notoriously aggressive high press - the lads break it all down. They spotlight “Sir” Emmanuel Agbadou's domination and how Marshall Munetsi - the unsung hero - set the tone with his relentless press, tactical awareness, and growing influence in the squad. Dave and James also explore how Andre and Joao Gomes are fast becoming Wolves' midfield heartbeat, baiting Spurs' press with the same swagger that once defined Joao Moutinho and Ruben Neves - and ask the question: are we witnessing Wolves' next great pairing? And don't miss the love for Rayan Ait Nouri, whose under-the-radar performances get some overdue attention. The conversation also touches on manager Vitor Pereira's growing bond with fans - including a pint at The Moon Under Water - and the warmth from Wolves supporters towards Matheus Cunha, as the Molineux faithful show their class. Plus, James and Dave reveal which one player they wish could've stayed in gold and black a little longer.

Hey there fellow Dog Geek Extraordinaires. A bit of stray off our, well-trodden, dog training and behaviour path today. We invited the wonderful Professor Alex Conner (co-author of ADHD Unpacked and co-host of the ADHD Adults Podcast) onto the podcast. For a while now we've been planning on having a conversation that advocates for compassion and understanding in what it must be like for neurodivergent individuals, particularly those with ADHD diagnosis, navigating a neurotypical world. We also thought it might be helpful to understand how ADHD might impact both trainers and people who might be attending classes or 121's. What unfolded was a fascinating conversation that enabled us to delve into the complexities of ADHD, discussing its impact on communication and relationships, emphasizing the importance of understanding and supporting one another within our relationships and communities.We get to explore the intricate relationship between dog training and ADHD, delve into the parallels in understanding behaviour, the importance of environment and the need for emotional acceptance. We find out how dog body language can inform our understanding of ADHD, the impact of genetics versus environment, and the challenges faced by individuals with ADHD in various settings. Alex effortlessly and expertly addresses misconceptions about ADHD and the societal perceptions that contribute to a stigmas. We hear how things people might take for granted, like the setting of boundaries and self-care, can be unique challenges faced by individuals with ADHD. We explore how personal experiences shape their understanding of self-worth and the importance of community support. Of course, we touch on the complexities of dog training, the nuances of behaviour, and the importance of understanding both dogs and humans and the significance of empathy in fostering connections.On top of all that top notch audio goodness Nat and Steve talk about Alex's book, discuss the challenges of understanding neurodiversity, discuss the arrival of spring and the emotional connection they feel towards nature (particularly a sparrow named Dave). Steve also briefly flirts with the concept of utopia and it's potential pitfalls (through the lens of B F Skinner). We ramble about the importance of emotional awareness, the dynamics of social media, and the influence of culture on behaviour, all while introducing a BRAND NEW segment dedicated to a beloved figure in the bookshelver community….

In this episode, Amber delves into the realities and implications of reality TV dating shows, specifically focusing on the latest season of 'Temptation Island.' She critiques the show for capitalizing on entertainment over everything by promoting harmful stereotypes and predatory tropes, such as the 'boys will be boys' mentality, the double standards between men and women and how these shows are particularly detrimental to black women, who are often marginalized and fetishized. Amber analyzes the behavior of various participants exploring themes of infidelity, emotional intelligence manipulation, and societal expectations, as well as the producers involvement and intention in manipulating situations for drama and ratings. While the show and shows like it are incredibly entertaining, they also serve to normalize a continuous lowering of the bar when it comes to expectations of romantic relationships. Amber concludes by reflecting on the broader implications of seeking love through reality TV and advises listeners on healthier alternatives for finding meaningful relationships.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 Welcome to The Pleasure Priority Podcast00:11 The Reality of Reality TV: Temptation Island01:43 Boys Will Be Boys: Gender Expectations02:52 Double Standards in Relationships03:25 The Role of Producers in Reality TV08:21 Toxic Masculinity and Emotional Manipulation20:53 The Struggles of Black Women on Reality TV30:29 Final Thoughts and AdviceRESOURCES:How to be Happy in Any Relationship Quiz -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.ambertaylorcoaching.com/quiz⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Work With Me -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.ambertaylorcoaching.com/workwithme⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CONNECT WITH AMBER:Ask Amber: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/kqcHJ741jKsDPvAb6⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠amber@ambertaylorcoaching.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Website:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.ambertaylorcoaching.com/⁠⁠⁠

James Bird and Dave Edwards return with another packed episode of Wolves Unpacked, as Wolves hit their stride and build momentum heading into the season's final stretch. This week, the lads break down how Wolves made West Ham panic with an aggressive press and showed calmness in control, the importance of ball-playing defenders in baiting the opposition, and the high-risk, high-reward nature of Wolves' passing game. They also analyse Emmanuel Agbadou's role in Jørgen Strand Larsen's goal and discuss Marshall Munetsi's finishing struggles—but also why his positioning as a defensive number ten is still key. João Gomes gets plenty of love as the midfield maestro earns a new contract, and the duo explore Wolves' attacking purpose under Vítor Pereira, how they've adapting without Matheus Cunha, and why they've proved they can avoid becoming a one-man team.

Welcome to unPACKed, an open-minded podcast taking a clinical, *not political*, approach to help pet parents around the world. Join Sailor Jerri and Mattison, certified trainers and canine behavior experts with a combined 3 decades of experience in behavioral dog training.   In this episode, Ruth shares her journey with Corn, a reactive rescue navigating life in downtown Toronto. While they've made great progress, unpredictable triggers like off-leash dogs and strangers continue to challenge them. We explore how environmental stress, trigger stacking, and nervous system regulation impact behavior—and how shifting from obedience to emotional support can open new doors. Ruth is ready to reframe her approach, reduce tool reliance, and build patterns that boost Corn's confidence. A thoughtful, practical conversation for anyone supporting a reactive dog in a busy world. Come back next month for a brand new episode, and later this year we'll check back in with Ruth to get an update on her training journey.   To apply for a live unpacking, see photos of the dogs featured in this episode, or read full episode transcripts, visit us at www.unpacked.stream and connect with us on Instagram @unpacked.stream.   unPACKed was created by Jerri Scherff and Mattison Skoog-Simpson, and edited and produced by Mattison Skoog-Simpson.  Visual design by Mattison Skoog-Simpson and theme music by Oleksandr Stepanov.

Host Noam Weissman explores the controversial ideas, and long-lasting influence of Meir Kahane—American-born rabbi, founder of the Jewish Defense League, and pioneer of the far-right ideology known as Kahanism. Once dismissed as a fringe figure, Kahane's ideas are making a troubling comeback, echoed in memes, political platforms, and even Israeli policy debates. Noam goes beyond the headlines to ask: Who was Meir Kahane--really? What did he believe? Why do some Jews say he was “right”—while others see him as a terrorist and racist? Featuring insights from historian Gil Troy, Orthodox thinkers, and voices across the political spectrum, this episode examines Kahane's life, legacy, and the resurgence of Jewish extremism in the wake of October 7.
