She also shares how her own experience with postpartum anxiety and depression transformed the way she practices medicine and deepened her understanding of the physical, emotional, and identity-related transitions into parenthood.

The question came about as a result of a five dollar bet over highballs, and it happened this way:Alexander Adell and Bertram Lupov were two of the faithful attendants of Multivac. As well as any human beings could, they knew what lay behind the cold, clicking, flashing face -- miles and miles of face -- of that giant computer.Script 2Vernon - I am a living, breathing woman, right in front of you. I'm not some story you can - STOP. Turn back around. Look at me. You do not get to ignore me. You don't have that privilege.[VERNON stares. The silence between them is palpable.]I know you're hurt. I know. But you can't think this is a surprise. You know things have changed between us. This is the most we've spoken in months. Stop. It's too late. That part has already been written, Vernon.

Buckle up for a wild ride into the gritty, unfiltered world of 1970s New York City policing.In this episode of Tall Boy Radio, host Beans sits down with a true legend of law enforcement: Retired Lieutenant Commander Vernon Geberth. While he is globally renowned today as the definitive authority on homicide investigation, this conversation takes us back to the raw, high-stakes early days of his career—specifically, his time as a hard-charging Tactical Patrol Force (TPF) Sergeant.Times have changed, but the stories haven't faded. Vernon opens up about his maverick, "gung-ho" tactics that fiercely prioritized saving lives and cleaning up the streets, even if it meant rewriting the rulebook on the fly. We dive deep into an era of policing that simply wouldn't fly in today's world, featuring jaw-dropping, real-life accounts of:Cleaning Up Times Square: Taking an uncompromising, tough-as-nails line against the notorious pimps and hustlers who dominated the neon-lit strip.The Cherry Bomb Incidents: How a little unauthorized, improvised pyrotechnics became the ultimate tool for flushing dangerous perps out of barricaded buildings.Air Support on a Whim: The audacious moment Vernon called in NYPD helicopters without a shred of official authority to seal the deal on a major operation."We didn't wait for permission back then; we waited for results."Despite the unorthodox methods, Geberth's results spoke for themselves. His fearless leadership earned him numerous medals, official recognition from the highest levels of the department, and most importantly, ensured that countless citizens and officers made it home safe.Whether you're a true crime junkie, a history buff, or just love a good story about a rogue cop getting the job done, this is an episode you absolutely cannot miss.Buy Vernon's "Godfather of Homicide" book here :THE GODFATHER OF HOMICIDE: VERNON J.

Why do we notice the one time our spouse doesn't do something faster than the hundred times they did?The breakfast, morning kiss, daily text, prayer, household task, or simple act of care that once meant so much can gradually become familiar. Appreciation becomes expectation, and we may stop recognizing the love behind what our spouse faithfully does.In Episode 109 of Stronger Together, Closer to God, Vernon shares a personal experience involving his wife's Sunday breakfast tradition—and how he learned that he was seeing breakfast while she was expressing love, service, sacrifice, and family legacy.Grounded in Colossians 3:15–17, this episode explores how Christ's peace changes the posture of our hearts so gratitude can help us notice and express the appreciation familiarity has taught us to overlook.You'll also receive practical tools for encouraging your spouse, recognizing how they communicate love, examining your tone through the “Jesus-name check,” and completing a seven-day gratitude challenge.Relationship Reflection: What does your spouse do so regularly that you've stopped seeing the love behind it?Gratitude does not require overlooking mistreatment, harmful behavior, or necessary boundaries. It invites us to recognize and express appreciation for the genuine love, sacrifice, and service we may have begun taking for granted.Primary Scripture: Colossians 3:15–17Supporting Scriptures: John 14:27; Philippians 1:3–5; 1 Thessalonians 5:11, 16–18Let Christ's peace rule your heart so gratitude can reopen your eyes to the person you've grown accustomed to loving.#WordsOfGratitude #GratitudeInMarriage #AppreciateYourSpouse #ChristianMarriage #ChristCenteredMarriage #MarriageEncouragement #BiblicalMarriage #RelationshipGrowth #CouplesInChrist #Colossians3 #BuildEachOtherUp #SevenDayGratitudeChallenge #StrongerTogetherCloserToGodIf you desire to deepen your prayer life, we invite you to access our 52-Week Marriage Prayer Guide.

Success for the firefighters in stopping a danger to houses in Vernon Mount but worrying news about people deliberately feeding fires throughout the city, Paul Byrne hears from Victor Shine Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
This episode features a conversation between Dr. Mark Vernon and Professor Peter Hawkins. This discussion is part of a series that Peter will be doing with some of the major thinkers and writers of our time, focusing on the necessary evolution of human consciousness, for humans to be future-fit to live on this planet in a way that makes a net-positive contribution to the wider ecology. The series is being done jointly with: The Weekend University and the Renewal Foundation. Dr. Vernon is a writer and psychotherapist whose work explores figures including William Blake, Dante, and Owen Barfield, making their insights accessible to contemporary readers seeking deeper understanding of consciousness and meaning. His recent book “Awake” examines how poetic imagination can reconnect us with dimensions of reality that modern culture has obscured. Peter is Emeritus Professor of Leadership at Henley Business School, founder of the Academy of Executive Coaching, and a leading authority on systemic leadership, coaching, and organizational transformation. His work integrates insights from psychology, systems thinking, ecology, and philosophy to help leaders navigate an increasingly complex world. His most recent book was: Beauty in Leadership and Coaching, which was published by Routeledge in 2025. In this conversation, they explore: — Why imagination is not just private fantasy, but a way of engaging with a deeper reality — How Owen Barfield's study of language reveals the evolution of human awareness across centuries — The distinction between original participation, separation, and final participation in the development of consciousness — Why addiction can be understood as a spiritual crisis rooted in misunderstanding what truly satisfies — How transforming human desire may help address the ecological and social challenges of our time — The difference between becoming "someone" and becoming "no one" in the spiritual journey And more.

What begins as the story of a shell collector quickly becomes something far more intriguing…In this episode, we explore the remarkable life of Vernon MacAndrew, a wealthy naturalist, sailor and photographer whose passion for collecting seashells carried him across the maritime highways of the British Empire.Following in the footsteps of his famous naturalist grandfather, MacAndrew transported his own yacht to the Red Sea and the Philippines in search of rare specimens. Yet among his photographs are not just shells and beaches, but Arab leaders, camel-mounted fighters, Hashemite flags and senior British officials operating in one of the most strategically sensitive regions of the world. Was he simply pursuing science, or was something more going on?To find out more Dr Sam Willis spoke with Dartmouth historian Jonathan Turner, who introduces a newly discovered archive of more than 5,000 photographs and reveals how MacAndrew's travels illuminate the connections between maritime exploration, natural history, photography, imperial power and global shipping networks. We also visit Dartmouth Museum to examine some of the spectacular shells MacAndrew collected, objects of extraordinary beauty that open a window onto the cultures, environments and sea routes of the early twentieth century.From the shores of Aqaba to the reefs of the Philippines, this is a story of curiosity, adventure and empire—showing how something as seemingly modest as a shell collection can reveal an entire maritime world.

False Idols: How Diversion is Destroying Democracy (Vernon Press, 2024) examines how modern forms of diversion shape civic life and weaken democratic responsibility. Drawing on the ancient Roman idea of “bread and circuses,” Kurt Warner explores how contemporary society is saturated with distractions that keep citizens focused on what is immediate, pleasurable, profitable, or spectacular, rather than on what is politically and socially meaningful. The conversation introduces listeners to the book's central concern: how celebrity culture, consumerism, economic pressures, sports, politics, art, music, literature, the internet, social media, and video games can become “false idols.” These forces do not merely entertain us; they influence how we think, what we value, and how we understand our responsibilities to one another. A key point of discussion is the book's comparison between ancient Rome and the contemporary United States. Warner uses “bread and circuses” to consider how societies become complacent when citizens are absorbed by basic needs and entertainment while civic duty fades into the background. The episode also explores the book's opening narrative, which follows an ordinary man, Chris, through a day filled with advertising, media, branding, and social pressure. This scene illustrates one of the book's central arguments: distraction is often woven into everyday life before people have noticed its influence. Warner's background in psychotherapy adds an important dimension to the discussion. 'False Idols' connects personal awareness with civic awareness, asking how people can recognize the forces directing their attention and reclaim the ability to think critically. Ultimately, this episode invites listeners to reflect on the relationship between attention and democracy. 'False Idols' asks what it would mean to wake up from the collective daze of distraction and choose more meaningful forms of civic, ethical, and social engagement. Key Themes and Context: “Bread and circuses” in the modern world - One of the book's central ideas is that Juvenal's famous phrase “bread and circuses” remains relevant today. Warner uses it to examine how entertainment, consumption, and everyday distraction can draw citizens away from civic responsibility. The many forms of diversion- The book considers a wide range of modern distractions, including celebrity worship, money, sports, politics, art, music, literature, the internet, social media, and video games. Together, these examples show how distraction can operate across culture, politics, economics, and everyday life. Democracy and civic duty - At the heart of the book is a concern with democracy. Warner argues that distraction becomes dangerous when it weakens civic engagement and allows people to avoid the difficult work of political and ethical responsibility. Critical thinking as resistance - The later chapters of 'False Idols' focus on critical thinking as a way of resisting manipulation and recovering agency. The book invites readers to examine not only what they consume, but also how their attention, values, and judgments are shaped. The psychological dimension of distraction - Warner's background in psychotherapy informs the book's attention to emotion, avoidance, and self-awareness. Distraction is presented not only as a social or political problem, but also as something that affects how individuals relate to themselves and others.

S6:E60 Not every successful business measures success the same way. In this conversation, Dr. LL sits down with Vernon Oakes, founder of Everything Cooperative, to explore how cooperative business models create stronger alignment between ownership, employees, customers, and communities. If people don't trust the systems behind a business, long-term resilience becomes difficult. And if AI systems (or prospective customers) cannot understand how your organization creates value, your impact often remains invisible. Together they discuss employee ownership, cooperative economics, local wealth creation, and why governance can become a competitive advantage rather than an administrative burden. Core Problems Traditional ownership models concentrating wealth Weak alignment between incentives and outcomes Limited awareness of cooperative business structures Practical Takeaways Different ownership models produce different organizational behaviors. Shared governance requires intentional communication and trust. Long-term resilience often begins with aligned incentives.

SUMMARY In this episode of Whistlekick Martial Arts Radio, host Jeremy Lesniak speaks with Nick Vernon, who shares his extensive journey in martial arts, starting from Tae Kwon Do and transitioning through various styles. They discuss the importance of cross-training, the significance of kata, and how Nick's experiences in the military and with notable martial artists have shaped his approach to training. The conversation emphasizes the integration of different techniques and the lifelong commitment to learning in martial arts. In this conversation, Nick discusses his unique approach to martial arts training, focusing on the purpose and progression of forms, the importance of grappling before striking, and the role of kata in developing practical skills. He emphasizes a student-centric methodology, modular training, and the need for a conceptual understanding of techniques rather than rigid adherence to traditional structures. The discussion also touches on the evaluation of students, the significance of fundamentals, and the philosophical aspects of martial arts practice. TAKEAWAYS Nick Vernon has a rich background in martial arts, starting in Tae Kwon Do. He transitioned from ITF to other martial arts styles throughout his journey. Nick's training has been influenced by notable martial artists and instructors. He values the integration of different martial arts techniques. Nick's experiences in the military shaped his martial arts training. He believes in the importance of kata in martial arts practice. Nick teaches a selective number of kata to his students. His approach to martial arts is a blend of traditional and practical techniques. Forms serve a purpose and should be chosen intentionally. Teaching should start with grappling to build a foundation. Kata is a training tool, not just a performance metric. Testing should be based on practical application, not arbitrary standards. Fundamentals are core concepts that can be applied at various levels. A modular training approach allows students to explore their interests. Strikes and blocks are functions of the same techniques. Stances are for training posture, not static positions. Student input in training modules enhances engagement and retention. Cultural influences shape martial arts practices, but innovation is essential.

She has published essays on William Faulkner, Nella Larsen, Katherine Dunn, and, of course, Cormac McCarthy. She is currently working on a book on McCarthy's representation of women. Like myself and Vern Cisney, her most recent chapter on McCarthy has recently been published in the collection, New Perspectives on Cormac McCarthy, Encountering The Passenger and Stellar Maris, edited by the Brothers Elmore. Joining Dr. Sullivan is Dr. Vernon W. Cisney, who is Chair and Associate Professor of Interdisciplinary Studies at Gettysburg College in Pennsylvania. He teaches at the intersections of philosophy, religion, film, literature, and politics. He is the author of Deleuze and Derrida: Difference and the Power of the Negative (2018), as well as Derrida's Voice and Phenomenon: An Edinburgh Philosophical Guide (2014). In addition, he is the co-editor of Between Foucault and Derrida (2016); Biopower: Foucault and Beyond (2015); and The Way of Nature and the Way of Grace: Philosophical Footholds on Terrence Malick's The Tree of Life (2016). Most recently, he has written articles and chapters included in Deleuze and Guattari Studies and New Perspectives on Cormac McCarthy: Encountering the Passenger and Stella Maris, and is currently editing with Jonathan and Rick Elmore a volume on McCarthy's Blood Meridian.

This may cause a mild disconnect in earlier podcasts where the host asks for patrons in lieu of sponsorships. But if we compare it to a very large and naked bald man in the middle of the desert who leads you to an extinct volcano to create gunpowder, it seems pretty minor...As always, the views of the host and his guests do not constitute the views of the Cormac McCarthy society, or their employers or institutions, or their pets or favorite sporting teams.

Your wellness goes more than just skin deep, and the first step in improving health, is understanding it.
June 25, 2026 In this segment, Vernon explore the connection between cooperatives and men's health, highlighting how cooperative principles can help address the social isolation, economic challenges, and lack of support systems that often affect men's physical and mental well-being. He also discusses health disparities between men of color as compared to those who are not of color. June is Men's Health Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness about the health challenges facing men and encouraging them to take proactive steps toward better physical and mental health. As conversations around Men's Mental Health Month continue to grow, Vernon closes out the month with a discussion about how cooperatives create opportunities for connection, shared responsibility, mutual support, and community engagement—factors that can play an important role in improving men's overall health and quality of life. This year's Men's Health Month theme, "Partners in Care: Advancing Men's Health Through Connection, Education, and Advocacy Across the Lifespan—for Better Lifespans," emphasizes that men's health is not an individual responsibility alone. The theme highlights the important role that families, friends, workplaces, healthcare providers, and communities play in supporting men's physical, emotional, and mental well-being throughout every stage of life. Vernon Oakes is a dedicated advocate for cooperatives who was inducted into the Cooperative Hall of Fame in 2024. He is the Past President of the National Association of Housing Cooperatives and has served on numerous boards and committees advancing cooperative interests. His contributions also extend to the Limited Equity Cooperative Task Force, initiated by Anita Bonds, an At-Large Member of the Council of the District of Columbia. As an MBA graduate of Stanford University, Vernon has applied his business expertise to serve the community, championing the benefits of the cooperative business model.
Bomani Jones is joined by Vernon “Mad Max” Maxwell for a long, funny, and extremely candid NBA conversation on this episode of The Right Time. Maxwell returns to the show to talk about his second act in sports media, how he still trains like a player, and why he believes some of the biggest storylines in the league are being misunderstood. Bomani and Max dive deep into the Jalen Brown conversation, including why Maxwell remains so high on Brown as a player, why he thinks the criticism has gone too far, and what Brown could look like in Philadelphia alongside Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid. They also get into what Boston may have gotten wrong, whether Jayson Tatum should have done more to keep Brown around, and why the Celtics' decision still doesn't sit right with Max. The conversation also covers Hakeem Olajuwon's one-of-one greatness, Giannis Antetokounmpo trade speculation involving the Miami Heat, LeBron James' future after the Lakers, the appeal of a Jokic-LeBron fit in Denver, LaMelo Ball's evolution, Jalen Brunson's footwork and mentality, and why Victor Wembanyama could be on the verge of becoming the face of the NBA.

Have you ever felt God asking you to take on something more? Sometimes His pivots don't require us to leave where we are—they simply ask us to trust Him with greater responsibility. Though the path may seem overwhelming, God faithfully equips those who are willing to follow His leading.In this episode, Tracie and Abigail share the inspiring story of Vernon Charlesworth, who answered God's call to lead Charles Spurgeon's orphanage while continuing to faithfully preach where God called him and to care for his own large family. Through his willingness to embrace God's unexpected pivot, hundreds of orphaned children found hope and faith in Christ, and generations have been encouraged by the timeless hymn Shelter in the Time of Storm. His story reminds us that when we surrender our plans to God's greater purpose, He can multiply our influence far beyond what we ever imagined.If you know of someone who can be helped by listening to the Abundant Living Podcast, please share this episode with them.

This podcast and YouTube episode features an in-depth conversation with Anthony David Vernon, a philosopher and educator, exploring the intersection of disability studies, left-wing politics, and the systemic failures of accessibility in a post-pandemic world. The discussion challenges the "normative" framework of society, examining how both civic institutions and political movements often fail to truly incorporate the voices and needs of the disabled community.Key Discussion HighlightsThe ADA and the "Checkmark" Problem: Vernon argues that because the ADA is enforced primarily through personal lawsuits and remains largely unfunded, it often results in "checkmark" compliance rather than true accessibility.The Post-Pandemic Erasure: The conversation explores how the rush to move past COVID-19 safety measures has prioritized "normative desires" over the accessibility needs of high-risk and disabled individuals.Multimodality as Justice: Implementing "ready-made" scaffolding and multiple points of entry into education and digital spaces benefits all learners, not just those with a formal diagnosis.
