July 31, 2026 - Season 17, Episode 2 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning show, that was recorded Thursday night, Alex Kozora and I start by giving some overarching thoughts on the Pittsburgh Steelers 2026 training camp with their first two practices now completed. The Steelers had eight players in for tryouts on Thursday, so Alex and I recap that list. We also discuss the two free agents that came in for visits on Thursday with S Jordan Whitehead being the marquee player. We discuss how Whitehead isn't likely to sign anywhere for a little while as he might decide to entertain a few more visits with other NFL teams. Steelers HC Mike McCarthy revealed his six pillars for team success on Thursday, so Alex and I recap those during this show. We also recap a few other things that McCarthy said on Thursday in addition to reviewing a few things that quarterbacks Will Howard and Mason Rudolph have said this week. ILB Patrick Queen recently gave his thoughts on his 2025 play, so we go over his self-evaluation and where his play needs to improve in 2026. OT Broderick Jones return from a serious 2025 neck injury seems to be going well so Alex and I discuss where he is at in his rehab and the possibility of him playing in at least one preseason game, if not all of them. This 50-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap above and we end things by answering three questions we received on X. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Colson Whitehead's ascent in the literary world has seemed, like much of what he does, impressively effortless. Though he's best known for “The Underground Railroad” and “The Nickel Boys”—both of which were awarded Pulitzer Prizes—his œuvre also includes a mystery set amid rival schools of elevator inspectors, a zombie novel, and an autobiographical coming-of-age story. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz survey Whitehead's wide-ranging body of work. The hosts are joined by their fellow staff writer Julian Lucas, who recently profiled Whitehead for The New Yorker. Together, they discuss three central works: “The Underground Railroad,” which catapulted its author from literary darling to mainstream celebrity; “Sag Harbor,” which fictionalizes, barely, Whitehead's summers in the Hamptons and the family dramas that played out there; and “Harlem Shuffle,” the first installment of the crime trilogy that concluded this month, with the publication of “Cool Machine.” On the page, Whitehead is a true Gen X ironist, transmitting heavy histories and themes with levity. Despite the occasional darkness of his subject matter, he's also one of our funniest novelists. “He has this way of, almost like a standup comedian, drawing you into this playful patter,” Lucas says. “Then your defenses go down, and that's when he hits you with something that grabs you emotionally, or that pulls you into a story.” Read, watch, and listen with the critics: “The Elusive Promise of the First Person” (The New Yorker) “The Nickel Boys,” by Colson Whitehead “Colson Whitehead's Big Score,” by Julian Lucas (The New Yorker) “The Colossus of New York,” by Colson Whitehead “The Underground Railroad,” by Colson Whitehead “Sag Harbor,” by Colson Whitehead “Harlem Shuffle,” by Colson Whitehead “Cool Machine,” by Colson Whitehead “Why Bother?” by Jonathan Franzen (Harper's) “The Odyssey” (2026) “Who Owns the Odyssey?” (The New Yorker) “Don't Use A.I. to Do This,” by Colson Whitehead (The New York Times) “John Henry Days,” by Colson Whitehead New episodes drop every Thursday.

Doug offers a speculation built from the Ra Material, Christian mysticism, and process philosophy: that concrescence — Whitehead's “the many become one, and are increased by one” — operates vertically across orders of magnitude, and that the Christ event was a oneing of the solar Logos with the sub-sub-Logoic level, which is us. The argument moves through two logjams. The first came before the veil, when third-density beings remembered they were the Creator and evolution crawled at turtle speed; the veil broke it and made third density the axis on which creation turns. The second is here, now, on Terra — a planet of third-density repeaters enmeshed in the Great BASH, the collective thought form built from our inefficient use of bellicosity, showing up energetically as an orange-ray overlay on a green-ray planet. Doug argues that Yahweh is our solar Logos, learning to parent through Venus, Maldek, and Mars, limited by Ra's teaching that a sub-Logos can only supply catalyst to the first triad of energy centers. Once the heart opens, the teaching runs the other way. What follows is the co-presencing of Logos and messenger in one body, the ankh as the shape of loss and renewal, and forgiveness planted as a seed inside the eye of the Great BASH. Discussion follows on whether a God who cannot participate in green ray is still God. Key References:   •Ra 82.18–82.19 — pre-veil third density; “turtle to the cheetah”; the absence of gusto, élan vital •Ra 41.14 — green-ray pressure producing orange-ray manifestation •Ra 9.7 — Martian transfer; “a careful series of genetical adjustments” •Ra 18.20–18.21 — the Anak; the elite-consciousness failure •Ra 54.17 — the sub-Logos offers catalyst only at the first triad •Ra 65.16 — Logos to Logos, Creator to Creator, not parent to child •Ra 17.11–17.12 — Jesus as a wanderer of no name, highest sub-octave of fourth density •Ra 17.20 — forgiveness as the stoppage of the wheel of karma •Ra 17.22 — “not an entity of itself but… a messenger of the One Creator” •Ra 18.12 — forgiveness of other-self is forgiveness of self •Ra 93.24, 94.26 — the crux ansata; all things offering themselves for transformation •Alfred North Whitehead, Process and Reality — concrescence •Richard Rohr, The Universal Christ — “God loves things by becoming them” •Perichoresis (the Greek fathers); the Chalcedonian formula

Have a comment? Send us a text! (We read all of them but can't reply). Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comWhat does “Christian nationalism” actually mean, and how can people tell the difference between public faith, patriotism, and a political project built around power? Andrew Whitehead and Samuel Perry, two leading sociologists of religion and politics, join Pastor Josh Burtram and Will Wright to explain Christian nationalism as a cultural framework that fuses a particular kind of Christianity with American civic life. They discuss how survey data connects Christian nationalism with attitudes about race, immigration, voting access, authoritarianism, gender, and who really belongs in America. The conversation also clarifies why they often use the phrase “white Christian nationalism,” what critics misunderstand or misrepresent, and why public prayer or Christians voting their values is not the same thing as Christian nationalism. This is a practical guide to understanding one of the most important forces shaping American politics, churches, and democracy today.Guest BioAndrew L. Whitehead is a professor of sociology at Indiana University Indianapolis and one of the leading scholars of Christian nationalism in the United States. Samuel L. Perry is the Sam K. Viersen Presidential Professor of Sociology at the University of Oklahoma. Together, they co-authored Taking America Back for God, one of the most influential empirical studies of Christian nationalism in America. Perry is also the co-author of The Flag and the Cross, and Whitehead is the author of American Idolatry. Their work helps this episode explain Christian nationalism as a measurable social framework connected to race, democracy, religious identity, and political power.Book MentionedTaking America Back for God: Christian Nationalism in the United States by Andrew L.

What if trusting life doesn't mean trusting that everything will become stable, coherent, or reassuring? In this episode, Vanessa explores change as both a spiritual and psychological problem: why we confuse trust with continuity, why change can feel like abandonment, and what it means to stay in relationship with reality as it keeps moving. Through Octavia Butler's “God is Change,” Heraclitus, Buddhist impermanence, process theology, attachment theory, meaning-making research, and Jungian transformation, we look at the grief and freedom of releasing the fantasy that life's job is to preserve the forms we love. Trust is not certainty that everything will work out; it is the willingness to remain present with what is real as it changes form.For educational purposes only.

Ray Carney is a furniture salesman in Harlem with a long-running side hustle. Colson Whitehead's Harlem Trilogy follows the character as he descends into crime across decades in a rapidly changing New York. Cool Machine is the third and final book in that series. In today's episode, Whitehead speaks with Weekend Edition's Ayesha Rascoe about Carney as a divided soul.

 Influencing for Good - Phil Whitehead

Alfred North Whitehead's "Science and the Modern World" explores the profound connection between science and philosophy, advocating for their reunion in contemporary thought. This work is essential for scientists and philosophers alike, as it encourages a holistic understanding of scientific progress and its historical context. Whitehead masterfully characterizes various epochs of scientific thought, illuminating how past ideas influence current understanding and development. The book's beauty lies not only in its vivid prose but also in its ability to provoke deep reflection on the evolution of knowledge.

On June 26, 2026, while guest hosting Mundo in the Morning on KCMO Talk Radio, Patrick Tuohey, senior fellow at the Show-Me Institute, spoke with Jonathan Whitehead of the Law Offices of Jonathan R. Whitehead LLC, a Lee's Summit-based civil rights attorney, about Kansas City's race- and sex-conscious contracting program. The city's own consultants recently told the council it lacks the legal basis to continue the program, and Whitehead walks through the Supreme Court precedent that governs these programs, what strict scrutiny actually requires, and why the city may now be exposed to a lawsuit.

"Freedom From Depression" Pastor Barry Whitehead 7.12.26

Join Alex and Dr. Alan Whitehead as they tackle the age-old debate in psychology explored in the film Gattaca (1997) — nature vs. nurture! The film was written and directed by Andrew Niccol and stars Ethan Hawke as Vincent, a man who was born normally (a shock, we know!) and predicted to die at 30 years old. He doesn't accept that fate based on his genes alone and vows to go to Titan by using Jude Law's Jerome Eugene Morrow's life, a man who was a genetic wunderkind. The film also stars Uma Thurman as Irene, Vincent's love interest (and Ethan's as well). Don't forget Ernest Borgnine and Alan Arkin! The central question of the film asks: are genes destiny or can fortune favor the experiences and determination of a life? The discussion also wonders what the point of all of this eugenics would actually be and why everyone is so interested in going to space. The best way to beat your genes?

21st June 2026 - Paul Whitehead- Kingdom Value - Generosity by Excite Church

"Father's Day 2026- Snake Hunt!" Pastor Barry Whitehead 6.21.26

Georg Northoff is Canada Research Chair in Mind, Brain, Imaging, and Neuroethics at the University of Ottawa's Institute of Mental Health Research, a practising psychiatrist, neuroscientist, and philosopher, and one of the founders of neurophilosophy. Over two decades his work has reframed the brain's resting spontaneous activity — the Default Mode Network — as the primary architect of consciousness and selfhood.He is the author of The Spontaneous Brain, alongside more accessible introductions including NeuroWaves: Brain, Time, and Consciousness (2023) and NeuroPsychoAnalysis (2023).________________In this conversation, I sit down with Georg to explore his spatial-temporal neuroscience — a framework that replaces the mind-body problem with the world-brain relationship. We begin with AI consciousness, move into the Default Mode Network and why depression is a brain running too slowly, his non-dual awareness study with meditators, his critique of Heidegger as still anthropocentric, and Whitehead's process ontology. A conversation that starts with ChatGPT and ends near the edge of what it means to exist.________________

A client complaint can hit like a shockwave, but the truth is most legal trouble starts long before that with tiny “it'll be fine” decisions that slowly blur your boundaries. I'm joined by lawyer and mentor Michelle Whitehead from Carefree Counsel to talk about the real legal risks that show up in everyday clinical practice, especially for health and wellness practitioners who were never taught how to protect their business, their energy, or their intellectual property.We break down Michelle's three-pillar best-practice framework: competence, capacity and connection. You'll hear how staying within scope of practice protects your duty of care, why capacity is about systems as much as time, and how client fit and clear expectations prevent conflict. We also dig into “contracts that care”, including how to use plain English without losing legal strength, and how to create practitioner contracts and clinic policies you will actually enforce.Refunds and disputes are a big stress point, so we cover the essentials of Australian Consumer Law: consumer guarantees, what “no refunds” really means, and how to build a structured complaints process that keeps you calm and professional. We then move into intellectual property basics for practitioners who create courses, programs, handouts or content, including copyright, trademarks, business name registration, and protecting trade secrets. If you want practical next steps, we finish with a clear checklist: privacy policy, website terms and conditions, IP awareness, SOPs for “zombie days”, succession planning, and even a refund buffer.Subscribe, share this with a practitioner mate, and leave a review if it helps.

Döhmann Helix One MK III Turntable with Vacuum Hold-Down Previewing at The 2026 AXPONA Show, I’m not sure whether the $150,000 price tag included the Wilson Benesch Graviton Ti arm, Tessellate Diamond cartridge, Supatrac Nighthawk 12** arm with DS Audio Grandmaster EX cartridge, analog front end feeding the ARC Ref 10 phono (or DS Audio TB-100 tube equalizer), the new ARC Ref 20 preamp, ARC Ref 330 mono amps, Wilson Audio XVX loudspeakers, cables from Transparent and the Olympus Ultra racks from Critical Mass Systems… or not. Any track marked * has been given either a tiny or a slightly larger 41 Rooms tweak/edit/chop and the occasional tune might sound a bit dodgy, quality-wise. On top of that, the switch between different decades and production values never helps in the mix here. Lyric of Playlist 152 Sad Alex! 00.00 (Intro) THE FLAMINGOS – Stars (Edit) – Unreleased demo – 1983. Episode #1 for info. 00.41 NEW ORDER – The Village (Kilkenny Rose Hill Hotel, 24.4.83) – Power Corruption and Lies, Definitive Edition – Warner Music – 2020 It gets off to a slightly shaky start at what was a legendary night in early years New Order history, with Barney and Hooky acting as a modern day comedy double act for the evening. The onstage antics were definitely inspired by seeing the hotel’s flyer in the afternoon… and I don’t remember Liam turning up. Me on photos duty, none of which I would have remembered until Steve Morris sent me photos I’d taken this night… with my writing on the back… followed by the above Movement Definitive Edition then including the video. I remember the afternoon soundcheck chat and Ozzy leaving the mixing desk mid gig and standing next to me but the things you forget… 05.03 PAUL HAIG – Trip Out The Rider – 7″ – Impotent Fury – 2010 ‘Packaged in a fancy pants paper cut sleeve that is hand screen-printed, foil embossed and limited to 500 copies. Rumoured to be the first of six vinyl releases… ‘ – Discogs His albums surface only very occasionally these days and any teaser singles even less so. This 7″ – driving with the zest of his early years – appears to have been the most recent but he’s a ‘signature’ voice we should hear more of. 07.41 LINES OF SILENCE – Lines In Opposition (Radio Edit) – Lines In Opposition, LP – Sprechen – 2026 These sleeves aren’t getting any easier to look at. An experimental krautrock band (Can? Neu?… ) out of Todmorden, UK – ‘a hotbed of UFO activity and home to the UK’s highest ever beach‘ – and I slightly cheated the vinyl thing here, as the Radio Edit is only downloadable, with the full version on the just released vinyl album. Should have gone with the latter. 11.12 SILICON VALLEY – X-Cell – Cold Waves Of Color Volume 3, v/artists LP – Color Disc – 2016 Whoever they were/are, they seem to have only released six singular tracks over a period of forty two years(!) * and on Color Disc label, v/artist albums only. A side hustle, the SV releases are not. * Makes Got-Ta-Scatta look prolific. 15.09 CLOCK DVA – 4 Hours (7″ Version) – 7″ – Fetish – 1981 Adi Newton is a voice that sits you up but they’d had a bucket load of self and semi released material before I tuned in with the Thirst album that includes this their debut 7″. 18.59 THE EVENT GROUP – Approach Work (Pt B) – Approach Work, self released, cassette only – ? – 1983 For any kids picking up on this, the voice you hear here is of England cricketing legend of yesteryear, Freddie Truman, also featured on the main Approach Work track already playlisted on 41 Rooms and the cassette’s cover, obviously, where he nearly looks like he’s got his ever present pipe on the go. And as for the church bells on the track… maybe adding to the image of a village green setting? Search out the band’s Feb ’82 Riverside TV appearance at some point. An entertaining watch at the time and another release for me to upload (the images anyway) to Discogs at some point, maybe. 25.11 UT – Evangelist – Split 7″ – Blast First – 1989 Yep, also the lead track from the 1987 album, In Gut’s House but I’ve gone for the, split with Dinosaur Jr., 7″ and as mentioned before here at 41 Rooms, a band I’ve grown to like more now than I maybe did back then. Cheers for the 41 Rooms iD snippet, Nina! Supporting The Fall, Bedford Boys Club, 1.10.83 Photo credit: Dec Hickey 27.57 YOUNG MARBLE GIANTS – Include Me Out – Colossal Youth, LP – Rough Trade – 1980 In YMG world this is them nearly rocking out! 29.50 KAREN MARKS – Cold Café – 7″ – Astor – 1980 Out of Australia and her only release at the time but the price tag the single has acquired through the years since (one of a few on this show), brought about a 2019 EP of tracks also recorded back in the day. Definitely an ‘indie’ sound. 32.42 DEENA WEBSTER – Scarborough Fair – 7″ – Parlophone – 1968 A folk standard I seem to remember hearing fairly regularly when I was young, so in one guise or another it must have cropped up on the radio and TV, though I never had the urge to buy it until I heard Deena’s version in more recent years and though she maintained the tempo of the song’s more traditional singers it’s everything backing her wasting no time in getting ‘busy’ that helps this version get my vote. ‘Bustling folk’, so let’s hear it for Deena and her arranger… “I chose none of the singles (from the album Is Tuesdays Child) apart from Scarborough Fair.” The track was one of the first arrangements for another artist by Barbara Moore. She was best known for her work as a singer with The Ladybirds and, when she arrived at the studio, many of the musicians thought that she'd come to help with backing vocals. She remembers that when she got onto the rostrum to conduct,the baton “it fell out of my sweaty little palm and ended up on the bass drum – that relaxed the whole atmosphere”. At the end of the session, Moore received a standing ovation from the 60 string andhorn players present. – Record Collector/Ian Shirley, #424, Jan 2014 edit 35.38 AL STEWART – Turn Into Earth – 7″ b-side – Decca – 1966 The flip may from Stewart’s debut release and his vocal ‘swagger’ makes this a rarity, in that it’s the only time I can think of where I’ve preferred a Yardbirds song performed by others… not that there are many of those. 38.29 MASSIVE ATTACK – Angel (Live) – Stream only – 2006 Performed as part of UK Channel 4’s first season of Live from Abbey Road series, with the Bristol band and Horace Andy managing to give the track even more gravitas and tension than on the its studio recording. No small feat. 43.15 CALLERS – Bloodless Ties – Life Of Love, LP – Western Vinyl – 2010 Sara Lucas’ vocal is just sublime, even if that bass guitar keeps hitting a note that I DO NOT LIKE. 47.39 PLATON DAVYDOV (feat OLEG KIRILKOV) – Sadness * – Stream only? – 2019 Violins… 49.02 MARTYN BATES – I’ll Wrap Your Hopes – Letters To A Scattered Family, LP – Integrity – 1990 Poetry, with a rippling outro. 53.01 FINK – Memorise Your Senses – The City Is Coming To Erase It All, LP – R’COUP’D – 2026 It took this his ninth album for me to have even heard of him, so I might have to rewind on him. 56.41 BÔA – Duvet – 7″ – Cinema-Kan – 2018 Or bôa… and on listening to the 1998 debut album, The Race Of A Thousand Camels, that first included this song, a band even at that point sounding like they might have been fighting to be two bands? I’d never heard of them until this track recently bumped into me but you then do a bit of a dig and Duvet has 43million Youtube hits… so you have to do a bigger dig. Here they sound not unlike The Sundays but that bigger dig explains some of the above. 01.00.00 RENAISSANCE – Back Home Once Again – 7″ – Warner Brothers – 1977 And what were the chances? Looking for something to follow Boa’s Duvet I decided on this 1977 single from Renaissance, a ‘prog folk’ band who for a couple of years in the late ’70s I had a real liking for. It turns out that Bôa’s drummer, Lee Sullivan is the son of Renaissance’s former drummer, Terry Sullivan. Who’d have thunk, eh? 01.03.03 HANNE HUKKELBERG – Do As I Do – Little Things, LP – Leaf – 2005 Promo’d (albeit as a CD only) as the single off the album at the time, so this was the ‘teaser’ – and it’s easy to see why. Cute! 01.06.39 08/15 – 1000 Gelbe Tennisbälle – 7″ – Sterbt Alle – 2025 If you had thoughts of releasing music on the subject of 1000 yellow tennis balls then someone’s beaten you to it. A 300 run re-release of their 1981 and only single. 01.11.25 COLDCUT – Beats + Pieces (Mo’ Bass Remix) – 12″ – Ahead Of Our Time – 1987 With a nod to Steinski, they were ahead of most of the others. 01.17.15 RAE & CHRISTIAN – Check The Technique (feat Tony D, Jazzy Jeff and Agent 86) (edit) – Mercury Rising, 2LP – LateNightTales – 2013 Minus the wonderful Veba’s vocals but with Mark Rae’s hip hop credentials they still produce. 01.21.10 THE JUJU ORCHESTRA – What Is Hip (Mo’ Horizons Hipstyle) – 12″ – Remixes – Agogo Records – 2006 TC (RIP) spending some time in the studio with the youngsters. 01.26.55 SAD ALEX – Ice Ice Baby (But You Have Anxiety) – Stream only – 2025 The only way Vanilla Ice was going to get on 41 Rooms was via som break borrowing… and songwriter Alex Saad has done just that. 01.28.59 SIMPLE MINDS – King Is White And In The Crowd – 12″ b-side – Virgin – 1982 Thankfully still here holding on to their futurist feel, even if the sound is housed in a contender for Worst Record Sleeve of all time. So, you’re only get the reverse… and that’s bad enough. 01.34.27 WAMDUE PROJECT – King Of My Castle (Original Version) * – 12″ – Eruption – 1998 More kings! Unusual for a dance track with nothing special in the vocals department to chart mainstream but this did just that. Maybe some intrigue and charm in the ‘Must be the reason why I’m king of my castle‘ lyric as it chugs along? Sometimes there’s just no knowing… 01.39.04 JOHNNY MAESTRO & THE CRESTS – I’m Stepping Out Of The Picture – 7″ – Scepter Records – 1965 If there’s a world in music I won’t stop finding ‘new’ gems it’s the rare/northern etc soul scene. I heard this gritty and restrained-in-equal-measures brassy belter for the first time only recently, via Beth Arzy (Jetstream Pony and others) capturing herself in front of a DJ spinning this tune. Re-released a couple of times in the intervening years, I won’t though be getting an original copy any time soon, as that could be anywhere between $800 and for a promo copy, $1700! 01.41.17 JIMMY RUFFIN – It’s Wonderful (To Be Loved By You) – 7″ – Tamla Motown – 1970 Motown still in their prime in these years and come the mid-late 70s I had the grand notion of collecting every UK Motown single between TMG 501 and TMG 801… but I soon gave up the ghost, though this one made it into the fold. 01.43.58 McFADDEN & WHITEHEAD – Ain’t No Stoppin’ Us Now * – 12″ – Philadelphia Int – 1979 Reminds me of Bedfordshire clubs of the time, and footballing mates and girlfriends and not a care in the world. 01.49.53 THE TYRREL CORPORATION – Going Home (Original Mix) * – 12″ – Cooltempo – 1992 Had three or four biggish tunes that gave them an identity of sorts. Not sure why great train robber, Buster Edwards is here but this was a 15.8.92 ad, most probably in Record Mirror. 01.55.08 NEW ORDER (Again!) – World In Motion (1990 No Alla Violenza Mix) * – 12″ – Factory – 1990 It’s World Cup time again! So, for only the second time (I think) in 41 Rooms’ history it’s New Order twice in one show – and the last time was Show 1! With a break in there nicked from somewhere I can’t quite grasp and Barney’s vocal deservedly getting some real breathing space here in between the Italo piano, will it do the job for us footie fans this time around? Who’d be an England fan, eh? If we’re still in the mix by show 153 we’re doing OK. Show 153 will be alive July 5.

Colson Whitehead is one the few novelists, and the only still alive, to win two Pulitzer Prizes for Fiction—for “The Underground Railroad” and “The Nickel Boys.” Whitehead's protagonist in the Harlem trilogy is Ray Carney, a small-time crook who fences stolen goods while working as a furniture salesman. Ray first appeared in “Harlem Shuffle,” and the final book of the trilogy, “Cool Machine,” will be published in July. David Remnick and Whitehead discuss the trilogy's second book, “Crook Manifesto,” and how David Bowie inspired Whitehead's genre-hopping approach to fiction. This segment originally aired on July 21, 2023.

What happens when two old Dharma brothers — both Zen priests, both former solitary practitioners, both veterans of decades on the cushion — sit down with no script and simply follow what's alive between them? This conversation is the answer. Keith Martin-Smith welcomes Chad Bennett, a Zen priest, former psychotherapist, and founder of Mitra, a practice community built around spiritual friendship and what he calls transformative companionship. Chad left the title "psychotherapist" behind for a pointed reason: he grew weary of the Western habit of turning everything — especially ourselves — into objects to be diagnosed and fixed. Mitra is his attempt to begin from wholeness rather than brokenness, though he's quick to warn that telling someone they're whole when they feel shattered only deepens the wound. The art is opening the field so wide that the broken feeling is fully allowed — because that permission is itself the medicine. At the heart of the episode is Chad's conviction that waking up, growing up, and cleaning up are not three separate projects to complete in sequence, but a single braided unfoldment that arrives all at once, in the same ordinary breath. To show rather than tell, he guides Keith and the live audience through a two-part inquiry meditation — first dissolving the boundary between body and earth, then sitting with 13.8 billion years of cosmic history at your back and an unformed future ahead, until you feel yourself less as a fixed noun and more as Whitehead's "creative advance into novelty," surfing the front edge of now. From there the conversation ranges widely and goes deep: the difference between including experience and merely indulging it; why parts work risks freezing us into permanent fragmentation, and how a "frozen node of consciousness" can come to recognize itself as the whole; and the hard truth that awakening which skips the shadow will eventually collapse, no matter how complete it feels. Keith offers two unforgettable first-person stories — a sudden flood of divine love before a statue of Christ, and a roadside moment when a lifelong inner voice de-fused into awareness, surfacing a buried memory — to illustrate that without direct experience, the teachings are just philosophy. Along the way: the "right kind of heart" and why most people don't try hard enough; self-healing, self-awakening systems; how genuine peer friendship dissolves the projection that haunts most teacher-student relationships; and what it means to befriend — as a verb — in a culture Chad calls a "desert of objectification." Equal parts teaching, practice, and the easy warmth of true Kalyana Mitra, this is a conversation about meeting the whole messy braid of being human — and discovering there was never anywhere else to go.

Imagine a child being removed from their home for their safety and brought to a welfare office any time of day or night - to wait hours or days to be placed in a foster home.  It can also happen at a school. Most of the time these children have only the clothes they have on. They are scared, lonely, hungry and may be dirty. But what happens when God puts these little ones on someone's heart and they step out in faith to do something to make a change. Jenny interviews Kristi Whitehead the Knox County Program Director of Isaiah 117 House. She shares stories of hope that will inspire and encourage you.   Isaiah 1:17 says, "Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed…"
They are living out scripture as they care for the "least, the last, and the lost." 

In this episode, Dr. Oord engages with the new book from Chad Bahl entitled The Death of Supernaturalism: The Case for Process Naturalism.  This book, the culmination of Bahl's doctoral work at Northwind Seminary, combines the thoughts of theologian Friedrich Schleiermacher and philosopher Alfred North Whitehead, espousing a process naturalist view of God—one which sees God as relational, persuasive and embedded within the natural world.The Death of Supernaturalism: The Case for Process Naturalism is now available for purchase in paperback and e-book formats.

Most weeks now I get an email from someone who's sure they've believed a lie their whole life — that the faith holding their family, their friendships, their sense of self together is collapsing, and they don't know who they are without it. I've been that person more than once. So in this essay I want to say the thing I wish someone had said to me: what's dying might not be your faith. It might just be your idea of what your faith was. Drawing on Whitehead's four stages of religion — ritual, emotion, belief, rationalization — I make the case that belief-centered Christianity is a late, late development, maybe 200 years old in its current intensity, not 2,000. For most of human history religion was bodies moving together, food shared, the dead remembered. The relationship was never in the certainty. It was always in the meal. If you're in the panic right now, this one's for you. Pull up a chair. If this conversation is interesting, then come join me and Ilia Delio for our upcoming class, The Future of Religion, where we will digging in to the evolution of religion, its current belief centered crisis, and the possibilities on the horizon.

"Instructions Necessary - The Gift of Teaching" Pastor Barry Whitehead 5.17.26

What if flow, insight, and mystical experience are different scales of the same underlying process? In this standalone Lectern episode, John Vervaeke speaks with Hüseyin and Daniel about their recently published paper on the cognitive continuum: a framework that moves from fluency to insight, flow, mystical experience, and transformation. The discussion develops Vervaeke's earlier work on relevance realization by bringing it into dialogue with the enactive approach, complex dynamic systems theory, and contemporary psychedelic research. The episode begins with the enactive critique of a simple subject-object split. Daniel explains why both self and world are groundless in the enactive sense: not nonexistent, but not pregiven independent substances either. Self and world arise relationally through embodied sensemaking. This matters because mystical experiences often involve a loosening or collapse of the ordinary self-world boundary. Hüseyin then walks through the paper's core argument. Fluency is reframed as a local form of attunement, not merely ease of information processing. Insight becomes a more global reorganization of the system. Flow becomes an insight cascade: a temporally extended state of metastable attunement. Mystical experience becomes the most global state on the continuum, where the deepest structures of self-world organization can be destabilized and reorganized. The conversation also makes a strong ethical point. Experiences that loosen ordinary constraints are not automatically good. Psychedelic states, mystical experiences, contemplative practices, and mindfulness can create epistemic vulnerability. Depending on context, they can become transformative, but they can also lead to derealization, depersonalization, false insight, spiritual bypassing, narcissism, or psychosis. Integration, practices, ethical frameworks, communities, and traditions matter because transformation is not produced by the state alone. Key Insights Mystical experience cannot be adequately explained by neurobiology alone. Enactivism challenges both naive realism and idealism by treating cognition as embodied, embedded, and relational. Relevance realization and sensemaking converge around a shared account of how cognition finds and enacts significance. Fluency is a domain-general feeling of attunement with the world. Insight is not only a representational shift; it can be a reorganization of the person-world system. Flow can be understood as a cascade of insights sustained through metastable attunement. Mystical experience may involve a globalized form of relevance realization, or even the release of relevance realization's ordinary grasping. Transformative experience requires more than destabilization; it requires viable reorganization. Context, set, setting, integration, ethical orientation, and community shape whether self-transcendent experiences help or harm.

On February 3rd, 2026, Joe Pine released The Transformation Economy, which is a follow-up to The Experience Economy co-written with James Gilmore and published in 1999. They identified a key pattern of how economic offerings have evolved beyond commodities, goods, and services, and moved into experiences as well as transformations. Their prescient predictions about these underlying patterns in the late '90s took many years of convincing businesses of their merits. But after a few decades, their core ideas of The Experience Economy have taken root, and now it is much easier to see how consumers have shown that they are willing to pay for memorable experiences. Now Pine is back at it again with The Transformation Economy with ideas that have been there from the very beginning, but he told me that the world wasn't ready yet, and he wasn't ready either. About 5-6 years ago, Pine started to hear from designers at World Experience Organization events talking about the transformative intent behind their experiences. This was the catalyst indicating to him that it was time to finally write this book, and he started researching the topics of aspiration, positive psychology, human flourishing, and the dynamics of transformation. I had a chance to interview Pine about The Transformation Economy, and in my write-up below I provide an overview of some of his biggest ideas, some of my personal reactions, how they relate to the XR industry, and finally some of my disagreements on where value comes from. Despite some of my philosophical disagreements with Pine, I still see a lot of value in the frameworks laid out in his book. He describes a roadmap towards a future where the core values driving a critical mass of businesses have evolved to focus on helping their customers fulfill their deepest aspirations, find meaning and purpose, and promote human flourishing. Progression of Economic Value Pine & Gilmore first theorized about a hierarchy of economic value in a 1997 article titled: "Beyond Goods and Services: Staging Experiences and Guiding Transformations." They originally called it "The Economic Pyramid," and described it by saying, "The inexorable march of competitive forces drives the advancement of economic offerings over time: commodities are extracted from the environment to make goods, then delivered as services, which are scripted to stage experiences, which then guide those persons or enterprises in a transformation." "The Progression of Economic Value" figure from page 3 of Pine's The Transformation Economy (2026). Within their "Welcome to the Experience Economy" article in the 1998 issue of Harvard Business Review and in their 1999 book The Experience Economy, they started calling it "The Progression of Economic Value" as shown in the figure above. In The Transformation Economy on page x, Pine describes each of the five distinct economic genres as well as their associated verb / function, Extract Commodities (fungible stuff) Make Goods (tangible things) Deliver Services (intangible activities) Stage Experiences (memorable events) Guide Transformations (effectual outcomes) There is an inevitable gravity towards commodification, and the antidote is customization. This insight first came to Pine in 1994 after he wrote a book in 1993 titled Mass Customization: The New Frontier in Business Competition that explored how Mass Production was moving into Mass Customization. When customization is applied to a service, then it yields an experience. When customization is applied to an experience, then it has the potential to yield a transformation that could be life-changing. Here's how Pine & Gilmore described this progression to transformations in their original 1997 article, "The way out of the commodization trap in which so many service companies find themselves is to move up an echelon of value and stage an experience. But experiences are not the utmost in economic offerings. Just as customizing a good automatically turns it into a service, so customizing an experience turns it into something distinct. If you design an experience so in tune with what an individual needs at an exact juncture in time, you cannot help but change that individual — guiding him to (and through) a life-transforming experience. Transformations are a fifth economic offering, whose value far exceeds that of any other." Pine also says in The Transformation Economy that "Eliminating human contact is a surefire way to commoditize yourself." Technology has an inclination to move more and more towards automation and creating "frictionless experiences," but I see the value of human intuition, emotion, relationality, community, and meaning being a differentiating factor in the transformation economy. I suspect that it will be really beneficial to deliberately embrace friction and tension that comes from interacting with other humans as explored in the piece called Deep Soup. I see the movement towards the transformational economy as a bit of an argument against automating too many things with AI because people will be craving authentic human contact. Key Concepts and My Personal Experience of The Transformation Economy The Transformation Economy book is written with the intention to become a transformational experience within itself. There are many pointed questions throughout the book that helped shape my overall framing through the lens of my business. My first reading of the book was focusing on trying to understand the origin, development, and evolution of Pine's provocative ideas to explore within my interview with him. My ongoing second reading of the book has catalyzed me to reconceive some fundamental notions around my identity, as well as the story of why I do what I do with The Voices of VR Podcast. So much of my work has been driven by a fundamental impulse to bring about change in the world. My motivation to cover the frontiers of emerging technology with XR, AI, immersive storytelling, and experiential design has been because I've seen the transformative power of embodied and immersive experiences to potentially bring about some meaningful changes in the world. I'm also very much drawn to philosophical frameworks like Process Philosophy that provide some key metaphysical foundations leading to a paradigm shift around the underlying nature of experience and reality itself. Here's a graphic from Andrew Davis' upcoming Whitehead's Universe book that lays out some of the scaffolding of this paradigm shift from substance metaphysics to process-relational metaphysics. Davis, Andrew M. (Forthcoming in 2026). Whitehead's Universe: A Prismatic Introduction. Orbis Books. One of the key concepts that really stuck with me from Pine's The Transformation Economy was at the beginning of the third chapter that says, "All transformation is identity change." Pine cites Suzy Ross' definition of identity as "all the ways you can complete the statement ‘I am . . .' " He says "From / To" statements are also key where you might say, "I was X, now I am Y." I really resonate with these definitions of identity since they're very flexible and practical. Once I became aware of these "I am ..." statements, then I started to hear them all the time. I found myself naturally making and reflecting upon identity statements, which provide clues to changes that I aspire to. As an example, I've often found myself saying something to the effect of "I'm more a knowledge artist than a viable business person." So in essence, my aspirational, identity-transformation statement is "I am a terrible business person, but I aspire to become a thriving independent scholar and transformational change agent." Reading through The Transformation Economy has been really inspiring since it's the first business book I've ever read where I can really see myself in these frameworks. Pine has been giving me language to articulate the possible futures that I'd love to live into, but yet the business models around the transformation economy are still nascent, uncertain, not very well specified, and rapidly developing. Each business will have a unique blend of commodities, goods, services, experiences, and/or transformations that they'll be offering, and so it is unlikely that there will be a universal formula that works across all contexts. I'm still meditating on this statement where Pine claims that your business is what you charge for. He says on page 22, "A business ultimately defines itself by what it charges for. If you charge for undifferentiated stuff, you're in the commodities business. If you charge for tangible things, you are in the goods business. If you charge for the activities your people do, you are in the services business. So, economically, you are in the experience business if and only if you charge for the time customers spend with you." Pine says that experiences are inherently ephemeral, and sometimes the only thing you keep from it is the memory, which can fade over time. He contrasts this with his definition of transformations, which he shares on page 10 as, "Transformations are effectual outcomes that change individuals in a lasting way. Where experiences are memorable, transformations are effectual." This implies that the business offering of transformations actually has more of an ongoing time commitment. Businesses in the transformation economy will be helping "aspirants" (Pine's preferred term for customers in the transformation economy) achieve their aspirations of transforming from one state into another state over longer periods of time. Aspirants will need to invest time, be patient with results, make progress, but also deal with periodic regressions. I've been reckoning with how I am what I charge for, and I can't help but think about the logistical difficulty in trying to escape the real-time accounting of how we've conceived of value delivered

Gary Dorrien is spending six weeks teaching the history of Christian social ethics in America — and this week Aaron and I turned the lens on Gary himself, which he immediately identified as the worst session of the class. What followed was an hour of Gary tracing his own formation from a kid on Union Road in Midland who couldn't stop staring at the crucifix, through graduate school, liberation theology, democratic socialism, and fifty years of theological labor held together by Rauschenbusch's conviction that capitalism has overdeveloped our selfish instincts and shrunk our capacity for public ends. The crucifix, a seven-year-old on railroad tracks, and why the moral influence theory was second nature before Gary knew it was a theory Going to mass every morning at Union Seminary while reading Barth, Tillich, and Niebuhr — and the Jesuit friends who told him he was obviously a Protestant Gustavo Gutiérrez reading Rauschenbusch for the first time and asking why Americans don't talk about this treasure James Loder, a thousand-page manuscript, and the line "maybe you can find the book in here" His love Brenda — and why Gary can say almost nothing else except that his is a story of being saved by love and grace Why Hegel still grips him fifty years later — and why most people only know the wrong Hegel The six interpretive traditions of Hegel and why the theological-metaphysical one is the one most seminaries quietly abandoned William Temple, Whitehead, and why Gary became an Anglican almost entirely on the strength of one book Capitalism is bad for us and a catastrophe for the planet — a blunt response to a pastor whose congregation looks like a list of what capitalism does wherever it lands Purity politics, DSA, AOC, and why ridicule works but isn't good for us The flickering Galilean vision — and why it keeps flickering not despite being wrong but because it's right Previous Episodes with Gary or Aaron the Niebuhr You Thought You Knew What Would a New Abolition Be?
