Noam Dworman and Periel Aschenbrand are joined by founder of Reciprocal Research, Cameron Berg. Berg argues that while he does not think current AI systems are probably conscious, there is a meaningful possibility that something is happening internally that we don't yet understand. We discuss AI suffering, whether shutting down an AI could be morally significant, strange experiments involving AI systems showing representations associated with panic, guilt and satisfaction, and what happens when two AIs start talking to each other about consciousness. The conversation eventually gets into one of the most uncomfortable questions of all: if there is even a 25–30% chance an AI is conscious, should we err on the side of protecting it? Cameron Berg is the founder and director of Reciprocal Research, a nonprofit AI research lab. Using mechanistic interpretability, computational neuroscience, and psychometric tools, he studies whether frontier AI systems exhibit computational properties associated with consciousness. His aim is to reduce uncertainty about the kinds of cognitive systems we are building, an important but neglected component of the alignment problem. A cognitive science graduate of Yale and former Meta AI resident, he writes regularly about these questions in The Wall Street Journal, and his research has been covered by The Washington Post. He is the subject of the feature documentary AM I?. https://x.com/camhberg?lang=en 2:53 Is AI conscious? 13:25 What does it mean to shut down a conscious AI? 30:13 Could a digital brain be conscious? 39:43 Two AIs talking to each other 42:06 AI shows signs of panic, guilt and satisfaction 53:00 AI consciousness vs. fetal protection 59:11 Can we trust AI when it says it isn't conscious? 1:05:12 Are we underestimating what AI is becoming? 1:10:00 The strange possibilities of machine cognition If you're 21 or older, get 30% OFF your first order @ IndaCloud with code CELLAR at https://inda.shop/CELLAR #indacloudpod

So last episode I made the case that medical student research should be banned, and I clearly touched a nerve. I got flooded with angry messages arguing against me, and honestly, I expected some backlash since it was a genuinely spicy take. But I want to be clear, I was being facetious, obviously nobody's going to actually ban med student research. What I actually want to unpack this episode is why this topic clearly struck such a nerve, and what's really driving the explosion in med student publications. I walk through some new data, including a study that found roughly a quarter of recent ophthalmology journal articles may contain AI-generated text, and another from Yale showing a real gap between the publications applicants claim on their residency applications and what's actually verifiable in PubMed. I also get into Goodhart's Law, the idea that when a measure becomes a target, it stops being a good measure, and how that applies perfectly to what's happened since Step One went pass-fail. I share some thoughts on what might actually help, including capping how many publications students can list, and I make it clear I'm not trying to lead some crusade here, I just think this conversation needed to happen. Takeaways: Since Step One became pass-fail, medical students have shifted their focus to research output as a differentiator, and reported publication numbers have risen sharply as a result. A recent study found that roughly 26% of ophthalmology journal abstracts and 22% of commentaries screened in 2025 scored as likely containing AI-generated text. A Yale-affiliated study found that applicants to ophthalmology residency claimed an average of 4.9 publications, while only 2.4 were actually verifiable in PubMed. Goodhart's Law suggests that once a measure like publication count becomes a target used for residency selection, it stops accurately reflecting research quality or applicant ability. Starting with the 2027 application cycle, the AAMC is renaming the ERAS publications field to "scholarly works" in an attempt to shift emphasis from quantity to quality.

"This will never work in India."That's what Indian truck manufacturers said about electric freight. Now they build the trucks.Something is going on here at a speed the rest of the world has not yet noticed. Solar capacity has gone from under three gigawatts to more than 160 in ten years. Across the same decade, 171 million people moved out of extreme poverty.But in eastern Delhi, a woman who has lived beside an open mountain of garbage for fifty years asks Tom Rivett-Carnac for one thing: tell the world about us.So, in the second of three episodes from India, Tom goes looking for what is really driving this change, what it looks like up close, and whether it can deliver for the people who need it most.A cement executive who set a net zero target in 2018, when nobody else in his industry had, will give you the business case that green is profitable. Ask him what is actually driving him and he gives a different answer. Truck drivers on the Bengaluru highway who are not called drivers any more. A nine-year-old with a bicycle. This is the largest transition of its kind anywhere on earth, and it is happening right now.With Delhi-based journalist and filmmaker Adnan Bhat on the ground, and Dia Mirza, Shyla Raghav and Prachi Shevgaonkar on what it all adds up to.So what does it look like from the inside? And what happens to the people it hasn't yet reached?Disclosure: the electric freight programme in this episode, Laneshift, was founded by The Climate Pledge, which Global Optimism co-founded with Amazon, alongside the city network C40.Learn More⛰️ Read how Delhi's garbage mountains became heat bombs for the people who work them, Al Jazeera on the waste pickers of Ghazipur, a landfill now roughly as tall as the Qutub Minar

Today's Headlines: The US launched strikes in the Strait of Hormuz for the second day in a row without saying what they were targeting, two more oil tankers got attacked, and JD Vance's Yale buddy Dan Driscoll quit as Army Secretary after Hegseth got paranoid about their friendship and blocked Driscoll's plans to modernize the Army for drone warfare — so the guy who wanted to prepare for the future of war got pushed out by the guy who built himself a salon at the Pentagon. On the financial beat, Global bond markets are selling off, US interest rates just hit a 20-year high, and what that means for you personally is that your credit card, mortgage, and car loan just got more expensive — thanks in part to the Iran war, oil prices, and everyone powerful being addicted to borrowing money. In other disturbing news, the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that Trump can keep building his ballroom-bunker, with Roberts writing in his dissent that it's probably illegal but the lawsuit didn't have standing. A USPS whistleblower came forward saying the Post Office defied court orders while building Trump's mail ballot system, the voter list portal states need to use doesn't exist yet, and tens of thousands of ballots could get rejected as a result — Democrats responded with a strongly worded letter to the Post Office, yep, the Post Office. In things we can no longer safely ingest news, Horizon Organic chocolate milk was recalled across Walmart, Target, and Whole Foods for early spoilage, which is annoying but at least it's not glass. And finally, Republicans invented a "midterm convention" in Dallas where a photo with Trump costs $88,000 and a photo with JD Vance costs $35,000.  Resources/Articles mentioned: Axios: Why Army Secretary Dan Driscoll resigned NYT: Bond Sell-Off Threatens to Squeeze Borrowers Around the World WSJ: Trump Says Communities That Oppose Data Centers Risk Becoming ‘Backwards and Poor' Axios: Supreme Court allows Trump's ballroom construction to proceed Axios: USPS whistleblower warns new ballot system could fail USA Today: Nearly 54K cases of chocolate milk recalled.

Originalists venerate the Founders, who were by most reckonings a group of remarkable statesmen.  Today, many Americans look seemingly in vain for a statesman worthy of the moment and its challenges.  But what is a statesman?  Does the U.S. Constitution assume a statesman will be at the helm?  Does it enable such a leader, or is it designed to thwart the designs of what Lincoln called the “towering genius?”  Acclaimed author and scholar Steven B. Smith joins us from Yale on the occasion of publication of his new book, On Statesmanship, in the first of two fascinating segments on many aspects of this many-faceted concept.  And, Andy and Akhil take a look at an important law emerging from the California legislature and awaiting the governor's signature.  CLE credit is available for lawyers and judges at podcast.njsba.com.

How stress affects hormones may depend on far more than the wellness practice itself, especially for women. In this episode of The Women's Vibrancy Code, Maraya and Ryan Today explore how sauna, cold plunges, breathwork, exercise, and other forms of biohacking interact with the menstrual cycle, cortisol, and perimenopause. You'll learn how your individual stress capacity influences your response to these practices and how to build greater body awareness so you can choose what truly supports your vitality.  About Ryan Today Ryan Today conducts applied biophysical research into the far-infrared semiconductor technology behind Relax Saunas. His work centers on the infrared energy all living beings naturally produce. The Relax semiconductor chips emit within this same biological band, where the frequencies align with the vibrational modes of water, proteins, and DNA. That overlap is what first drew him to research the technology. Ryan works closely with practitioners, clinicians, and researchers exploring the therapeutic applications of far-infrared exposure and how this technology may support health, recovery, and overall vitality.

Tudor Dixon is joined by Evita Duffy Alfonso for a wide-ranging conversation about patriotism, America’s universities, the rise of socialism among Gen Z and what conservatives must do to win over the next generation. Evita shares stories from her family’s Great American Road Trip and explains why seeing America firsthand can help young people reconnect with the country’s history, culture and values. She also opens up about her experience as a conservative student at the University of Chicago and discusses the challenges conservative and Christian families face when deciding where to send their children to college. Tudor and Evita examine ideological conformity on college campuses, whether conservatives should fight to reclaim institutions like Harvard and Yale rather than abandon them, and how universities could be held accountable through federal funding and tax policy. Plus, Evita discusses why socialism is gaining traction with some young Americans struggling with housing costs, groceries and an increasingly elusive American Dream—and argues that Republicans need to offer tangible economic solutions rather than simply dismissing those frustrations. They also discuss her husband Michael Alfonso’s run for Congress in Wisconsin, the emerging Gen Z conservative movement and why the battle for America’s next generation may reshape the future of both political parties.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

April 2025: Liberation Day. President Trump announces sweeping new tariffs. And then, the dollar did something a safe haven currency is not supposed to do: it fell.Tarek Hassan (Boston University, CEPR), working with Thomas Mertens, Jingye Wang and Tony Zhang, has been investigating what makes a currency the global anchor. Being the world's biggest economy helps, but what really matters is how far an economy's shocks affect world prices. Tariffs reduce this effect. But are we near a tipping point, when the euro takes over as the global reserve currency? We might be closer than you think and, if a change happens, it might happen more quickly than you think too.This is the third of four episodes drawn from papers commissioned for the second Economic Policy: Papers on European and Global Issues conference, held in Venice on 19 and 20 June 2026 and organised by CEPR, CESifo and Sciences Po.The research behind this episode:Hassan, Tarek A., Thomas M. Mertens, Jingye Wang, and Tony Zhang. 2026. "Openness, Integration, and the International Monetary Order." Conference draft, presented at the 2nd Economic Policy: Papers on European and Global Issues Conference, Venice, 19 to 20 June 2026. Forthcoming in Economic Policy.To cite this episode:Phillips, Tim, and Tarek A. Hassan. 2026. "The Dollar Anchor Is Slipping." VoxTalks Economics (podcast).About the guestTarek A. Hassan is Professor of Economics at Boston University, a Research Fellow of the National Bureau of Economic Research, and a Research Fellow of the Centre for Economic Policy Research. His research spans international finance, macro-finance, and the political economy of growth, from measuring firm-level political risk with large language models to, in this paper, the size and openness that decide which currency the world treats as safe.Research cited in this episodeLiberation Day and the April 2025 tariffs. On 2 April 2025, the White House announced a sweeping set of import tariffs. Hassan and his co-authors treat the market reaction to that announcement, in which the dollar fell even as US interest rates rose and US stocks underperformed, as the anomaly their model is built to explain; a currency behaving that way in a crisis usually counts as risky, not safe. CEPR has gathered further commentary on the announcement and its aftermath on its Trump and Tariffs page.Exorbitant privilege. A term coined in the 1960s for the advantage the United States gets from issuing the world's reserve currency, since foreign investors will hold dollar assets at a lower return than they would demand elsewhere. Hassan uses it to explain why Americans can borrow more cheaply than almost anyone else, and why losing anchor status would raise the US government's own borrowing costs.Effective size. The paper's central idea. It is not simply how big an economy is, but how much weight its shocks carry in setting world prices, which depends on both actual size and openness to trade and capital flows. Tariffs and capital controls both reduce a country's effective size without touching its GDP, which is how they can knock a currency out of contention as a global anchor.The Budget Lab at Yale's tariff tracker. The paper draws its estimate that the current average tariff on US imports and exports, once retaliation is included, runs at around 12% from The Budget Lab at Yale (2025), Where We Stand: The Fiscal, Economic, and Distributional Effects of All US Tariffs Enacted in 2025 Through April 2, a running assessment of US trade policy maintained by the nonpartisan Budget Lab at Yale.Ilzetzki, Reinhart, and Rogoff's exchange rate classification. Ilzetzki, Reinhart, and Rogoff. 2019. "Exchange Arrangements Entering the Twenty-First Century: Which Anchor Will Hold?" Quarterly Journal of Economics 134 (2). This dataset classifies the de facto exchange rate regime of 141 economies. Hassan and his co-authors use it to calibrate their model and to show that the share of countries pegging tightly to the dollar falls with country size almost exactly as their theory predicts.The Chinn-Ito index of capital account openness. Chinn, Menzie D., and Hiro Ito. 2006. "What Matters for Financial Development? Capital Controls, Institutions, and Interactions." Journal of Development Economics 81 (1): 163 to 192. This widely used index scores how open a country's capital account is to cross-border investment. China scores close to the bottom, in the same range as India, Russia, Brazil and Pakistan, while the United States and the eurozone score close to the maximum, which is central to why Hassan treats the renminbi as a non-contender for anchor status while capital controls remain in place.More VoxTalks Economics episodesTariffs, Uncertainty, and the Exchange Rate, the first episode in this series, in which Alfonso Merendino and Tommaso Monacelli offer another explanation of why the dollar fell rather than rose after the 2025 tariffs.How Exchange Rates Responded to Tariffs, in which Giancarlo Corsetti also tells Tim Phillips what happened to the dollar after Liberation Day, and why the textbook response did not show up.Related reading on VoxEU.orgTariffs and US Dollar Depreciations: Not So Surprising After All, a VoxEU column in which Giancarlo Corsetti, Simon Lloyd and Daniel Ostry argue that the dollar's fall after Liberation Day looks less puzzling once expected retaliation and long run risk are taken into account.Tariffs, Global Imbalances, and the Dollar, in which Oleg Itskhoki and Dmitry Mukhin examine whether tariffs aimed at shrinking the US trade deficit can actually work, and what trying would mean for the dollar.

Dr. Michael Glock spent seventy years earning the right to say something simple. Twenty-eight startups. Two marriages. A doctorate in depth psychology. Talks at Yale, Princeton, and the University of London. And the thing he keeps coming back to with clients is not a strategy. It's a sentence a client said to him days before this recording: standing on a beautiful plot of land, deciding what to build next.   Most people chasing the next milestone assume it will finally quiet a low-grade unease they stopped noticing years ago, because it's been there so long it feels like personality. Glock has spent two decades watching what happens when successful people stop long enough to ask what that unease has actually been trying to tell them.   What was covered: Why Carl Jung's idea that "the dreams are the same, just dreamt in modern dress" shows up in Glock's clients as blocked toilets and flooded basements at the start of the work, and circles and mandalas by the end The four directions of the medicine wheel, and why most high achievers get stuck circling the East (the eagle, the big plan) without ever visiting the West (the bear, reflection) Why "beginner's mind" determines whether transformation is even possible, and why extreme success can make someone harder to reach, not easier The scenario-planning method Glock borrowed from the same research culture that invented modern futurism, now used to build a client's future ten years out and let it pull them forward Why he believes most people don't need a different life, they need a different interpretation of the one they already lived What running a suicide-prevention line in 1970s New Zealand as a teenage immigrant taught him about what people actually need when life ruptures   About Dr. Michael Glock: Dr. Michael Glock is a philosopher, futurist, hypnotherapist, and co-founder of Joymind, one of the largest hypnotherapy platforms in America. Trained in Jungian and depth psychology at Pacifica Graduate Institute, he developed Hermeneutic Hypnosis, an emerging framework blending hypnosis, neuroscience, mythology, symbolic thinking, and storytelling. For more than 20 years, he has worked with entrepreneurs, executives, creatives, and high performers seeking transformation beneath outward success. His work focuses on how unconscious narratives shape anxiety, trauma, burnout, identity, and human behavior — and how altered states and imagination can help rewrite those patterns. He is the author of Way Ahead: Medicine Stories and publishes widely on Medium.   Links: joymind.com/richersoul    Websites: https://joymind.com/cat/specialists/michael-glock/ https://www.drmichaelglock.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drmichaelglock/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/joymind-hypnotherapy/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/joymindhypnotherapy Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joymind.hypnotherapy X: https://x.com/DrMichaelGlock YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@joymind TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@joymind.hypnotherapy   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

Recorded live at the 2026 AOSSM Annual Meeting in Seattle, join Dr. Reider for a conversation with Dr. Riley J. Williams III, Chief of Sports Medicine at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, as he shares his cross country journeys from LA to Yale, Stanford, and the Hospital for Special Surgery, reflecting on the opportunities, mentors and pivotal decisions that shaped his career. Dr. Williams discusses leading the HSS Sports Medicine Institute, the evolution of cartilage-repair research, and how new evidence, registries, and long-term outcomes can inform better treatment decisions. He also explores the unique challenges of caring for professional athletes, including return-to-play decisions, mental readiness, and balancing short-term performance with long-term health. Notably, Dr. Williams reflects on representation of black surgeons in orthopaedics as well as the opportunities and the use of AI in clinical care.

At college, young people have the opportunity to get to know peers from different ethnic, social, and political backgrounds. As a result, they meet students who see the world in completely different ways. So what should happen when students encounter ideas, histories, or each other in ways that make them deeply uncomfortable? Avoiding those conversations may reduce conflict in the short term. Simply encouraging students to “speak freely” isn't enough either. Without trust and skill, difficult conversations can reinforce divisions instead of bridging them. Professors and other educators can provide guidance drawing from a wide array of sources and points of view. But how can educators teach healthy constructive ways to engage with new ideas and different perspectives, especially in an age of polarization? Universities have become one of the places where America's conflicts over race, history, identity, and free expression play out most intensely. In the 2010s many scholars adopted a more critical view of American history and how it shaped our present. But the past few years have seen a roll-back of racial studies programs and diversity initiatives. Universities around the country have opened civics education centers, in some cases as a way of restoring a more traditional take on history. Our two guests this episode are professors who teach divisive topics including race in America and the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. They've each found ways to engage students and create classroom cultures based on curiosity and respect. And they're leading the way for other educators. Stephanie Shonekan is Dean of the College of Arts and Humanities at the University of Maryland. While chair of the Black Studies Department at the University of Missouri, Stephanie created and ran several programs geared towards inclusion and diversity.

What happens when years of medical training teach you to undervalue your own time—and how can that affect the way you earn, spend, and build wealth? In Part 2 of our conversation, Dr. Billina Shaw explores the financial boundaries, money scripts, and deeply ingrained beliefs that can shape women physicians' financial decisions. She discusses why it can be so difficult to charge what your work is worth, how medical training can contribute to financial devaluation and lifestyle creep, and how to move beyond guilt and shame toward more intentional financial choices. Dr. Shaw also shares practical ways to recognize inherited money patterns, build financial resilience, and separate your net worth from your self-worth.Dr. Billina Shaw is a Yale-educated triple board-certified psychiatrist (child, adolescent, and adult psychiatry; addiction medicine) with an MPH from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. She has served as a Senior Medical Advisor at the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), bringing federal-level expertise in behavioral health policy and implementation. Dr. Shaw now works with high-achievers, leaders, and organizations to move from anxious and disconnected to purposeful, peaceful, and prosperous. Through her speaker platform and financial wellness coaching practice, she bridges clinical psychiatry, behavioral health strategy, and the psychological roots of financial decision-making and well-being.In this episode, we discuss:Why do women physicians often feel uncomfortable charging for their time, expertise, and services?How can setting financial boundaries protect your time, energy, peace, and long-term financial goals?How does medical training contribute to the devaluation of physicians' time and expertise—and how can that affect financial decisions later?Why can physicians experience a pendulum swing from extreme financial deprivation to overspending after residency?How can physicians enjoy their money without falling into mindless spending or all-or-nothing financial rules?How do guilt, shame, and financial trauma influence the way we earn, spend, save, and invest?How can you recognize and reshape inherited money scripts that may have been passed down through generations?What can we learn from major financial disruptions or losses that were outside our control?How can viewing your knowledge, skills, relationships, and abilities as assets help you feel more financially resilient?How long does it typically take to make meaningful changes in deeply rooted financial beliefs and behaviors?What is the difference between your net worth and your self-worth—and why does that distinction matter for financial wellness?Ultimately, Dr. Shaw reminds us that financial wellness is about more than numbers. It begins with understanding the beliefs and experiences that shape our relationship with money—and recognizing that our net worth does not determine our worth.Interested in learning more about my telehealth direct specialty care practice?

This podcast exists because Kirk Brown had what Eric thinks was a very stupid idea, to start a podcast about foundation and nonprofit communications. Seven years later, they're still at it. Our guests today, Emily Shaw and Bridget Conley, started the podcast Disrupting Peace because Bridget had a very good idea: create a podcast to take on the question of why peace hasn't worked, and find ways to address those challenges. Bridget is the research director at the World Peace Foundation. Emily is the crack producer who helped her build the show. Organizations are always looking for new ways to use communications to advance their mission, and sooner or later the question comes up, "Should we start a podcast?" So this episode is for every foundation, nonprofit, consultant, or anyone else out there sitting on a podcast idea and wondering if it's worth doing.

Patrick Ball joins Perri Nemiroff for a Collider Forces interview to discuss the remarkable journey that led him to becoming Dr. Frank Langdon on The Pitt.Before landing his breakout role on one of television's most acclaimed dramas, Ball dropped out of college, moved to New York, spent years working in regional theater, studied at Yale, made his Broadway debut, and endured countless auditions that didn't result in a booking. During this conversation, he reflects on that winding path to success and the lessons he learned along the way.Ball also dives deep into The Pitt, discussing Langdon's evolution across Seasons 1 and 2, his dynamic with Mel (Taylor Dearden), Santos (Isa Briones), Whitaker (Gerran Howell), and Robby, what he's learned from working alongside Noah Wyle, and what he hopes to explore when the series returns for Season 3.

Literature and Learning: A History of English Studies in Britain (Oxford University Press, 2025) by Stefan Collini The study and teaching of English literature is generally regarded as one of the central disciplines in the modern university, yet for much of its history it struggled to gain academic legitimacy and was frequently derided as 'a soft option'. Its early professors responded by emphasizing its scholarly character, foregrounding philology and literary history in ways that marked the syllabus far into the twentieth century. Stefan Collini provides here the first full account of the discipline's development from its late-eighteenth-century beginnings up to the early 1960s. Paying special attention to institutional settings, he challenges numerous assumptions about the character of universities in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. From the detailed exploration of syllabuses, exam papers, and other institutional records, the impact of literary criticism is revealed to be later and more partial than is commonly assumed. Rather than seeing the early teaching of English literature as 'a substitute for religion' or 'a means to soften class conflict', Collini emphasizes the role of ideals of learnedness and scholarship, as well as of external factors such as opportunities for employment in the civil service and secondary school-teaching. There are full discussions of the parts played by such figures as John Churton Collins, A.C. Bradley, George Saintsbury, and Walter Raleigh, together with sceptical analyses of the decisive significance usually attributed to Matthew Arnold, T.S. Eliot, I.A. Richards, and F.R. Leavis. Separate chapters are devoted to neglected aspects of the story such as the role of Classics, the importance of the subject for women's higher education, and the connections with English teaching in schools. Drawing on extensive use of institutional archives and records as well as the writings of contemporary participants, the book offers a vivid and wide-ranging history of English-as-discipline and its centrality across academic, literary, cultural, and educational life over the past two year hundred years, as well as a resounding testament to its continued importance and relevance today. Stefan Collini, Professor Emeritus of Intellectual History and English Literature, University of Cambridge. Stefan Collini was educated at Cambridge and Yale. Following a Research Fellowship at St John's College, Cambridge, he was Lecturer, then Reader, in Intellectual History at the University of Sussex 1974-86; Lecturer, then Reader, then Professor of Intellectual History and English Literature at the University of Cambridge 1986-2014. He is a Fellow of the British Academy, and a frequent contributor to the London Review of Books, Times Literary Supplement, and Guardian. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

Several segments today! First, Luke discusses the freedom that God's Law gives us to defend ourselves and each other with a clip about Christian Craighead, followed by a conversation about Flock cameras and our need for God's Law to be left untampered and available to the people so that tech doesn't trample justice. Then, Luke reacts first to a Yale law professor's claims that a college graduate has better interest in the political needs of children than their parents and secondly to Joel Webbon's interview on the Patrick Bet David Podcast, concluding with two "Ask a Theonomist" questions about Lindsey Clancy and juries!

(The full Dish returns on September 4. In the meantime, we are re-airing a handful of the most downloaded episodes from the early years of the Dishcast.)The academic career of Cornel West is long and storied. He has taught religion, philosophy, and African-American studies at Yale, Princeton, Harvard, and Union Theological Seminary. He has written or contributed to more than 20 books, including Race Matters and Democracy Matters — but he recommends you start with Chekhov.I met Cornel decades ago, when I interviewed him at Union Theological Seminary for a TNR piece I was writing on divinity schools. He has long fascinated me, and Race Matters had a real impact on me decades ago. Erudite, passionate, and deeply humane, he is an unapologetically leftist Christian who is also a champion of free speech, civility, and the classics. In other words: a rare and beautiful man.A key theme of the Dishcast is a willingness to talk to anyone across the political and ideological spectrum. We thought it would be cool if we re-aired this episode alongside that with Charles Murray, a philosophical opposite, but also a deeply decent man.Go here for a polished transcript of Cornel. We also have two clips on YouTube: on how he finds common ground with bigots and racists, and his take on CRT and the 1619 Project. This is a public episode.

Can Ancient Philosophy Teach Us How to Succeed? | Tom Morris on Aristotle, Stoicism & Living WellWhat does it actually mean to succeed in life? And could Aristotle, the Stoics and other ancient thinkers have better answers than our modern obsession with money, status and achievement?In this episode, Anya Leonard speaks with Tom Morris, public philosopher, former Notre Dame professor and bestselling author of If Aristotle Ran General Motors. Together they explore what happens when ancient philosophy leaves the classroom and enters everyday life: from business and leadership to personal success, politics and the search for meaning.Drawing on Aristotle, Seneca, Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius and others, Tom challenges conventional ideas of success and offers a deeper vision rooted in developing our talents, helping others and pursuing genuine human flourishing.The conversation also explores the extraordinary modern revival of Stoicism, whether we can separate great ideas from the flaws of the people who held them, and how ancient concepts of virtue, community and responsibility might help us navigate the divisions of modern society.Key Topics:Why ancient philosophy still speaks to modern problemsWhat happened when Tom brought Aristotle into corporate AmericaWhy success isn't simply about money, power or statusAristotle, eudaimonia and the meaning of human flourishingHow to find the useful “gold nuggets” in ancient philosophyShould we reject thinkers whose values don't match our own?Philosophy, patriotism and the search for shared valuesCan ancient wisdom help us move beyond political extremes?Why Stoicism has become a worldwide phenomenonThe forgotten philosophical traditions we should rediscoverTimestamps:00:00 – Introduction01:00 – From philosopher to corporate America05:03 – Why ancient wisdom connects with people10:53 – Our hunger for meaningful ideas14:08 – What is true success?16:13 – The Seven C's of Success17:52 – Eudaimonia & human flourishing18:46 – If Aristotle Ran General Motors20:13 – “Cherry-picking” ancient wisdom24:04 – Can we learn from flawed thinkers?28:07 – Philosophy, patriotism & shared values32:17 – Can philosophy overcome division?42:11 – Why Stoicism is booming46:38 – Stoicism & political division49:25 – Can individuals change society?53:29 – Finding the middle ground58:54 – What lies beyond Stoicism?1:00:30 – Final thoughtsWhat does success mean to you?

Send us your admissions questions!How can military veterans translate their service, leadership, and clinical experience into a strong PA school application? In this episode of Admissions Straight Talk, host Dr. Valerie Wherley speaks with Brandon R. Beattie, MMSc, PA-C, assistant professor and program director, about the George Washington University (GW) PA Program, the military roots of the PA profession, and the opportunities and barriers veterans face when applying to PA school.Brandon brings both admissions expertise and lived experience to the conversation. Before becoming a PA, he served as a U.S. Army combat medic during multiple overseas tours. He later completed his PA training at Yale and now leads one of the country's long-standing PA programs, which was founded in 1972 and was ranked sixth (tied with Baylor College of Medicine) in U.S. News & World Report's 2025 Best Physician Assistant Programs rankings.The conversation focuses on how veterans can tell their stories in ways that admissions committees will understand. Brandon explains why military jargon, acronyms, and modesty can sometimes hide the depth of an applicant's experience. He also shares practical advice for the PA application process, including proofreading, clarifying military roles for civilian readers, choosing recommendation writers strategically, and showing evidence of grit, teamwork, communication, coachability, and mission fit.If you are a veteran considering PA school, this episode offers a clear framework for presenting military service as a strength, not a complication.0:00 From Military Service to PA School01:32 What Sets the GW PA Program Apart03:25 Veterans and the Origins of the PA Profession05:27 Strengths Veterans Bring to PA School07:03 Barriers Veterans Face in the Application Process15:06 Strategies for a Strong PA Application18:12 Choosing the Right Recommenders20:21 What GW Looks for in Competitive ApplicantsRelated Resources:Brandon R.

Money decisions aren't always just about numbers, budgets, or financial knowledge. In Part 1 of our conversation, Dr. Billina Shaw explores the often-overlooked psychological side of money—examining how childhood experiences, professional training, past financial struggles, and deeply held beliefs can shape the way women physicians earn, spend, save, and think about wealth.Dr. Billina Shaw is a Yale-educated triple board-certified psychiatrist (child, adolescent, and adult psychiatry; addiction medicine) with an MPH from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. She has served as a Senior Medical Advisor at the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), bringing federal-level expertise in behavioral health policy and implementation.Dr. Shaw now works with high-achievers, leaders, and organizations to move from anxious and disconnected to purposeful, peaceful, and prosperous. Through her speaker platform and financial wellness coaching practice, she bridges clinical psychiatry, behavioral health strategy, and the psychological roots of financial decision-making and well-being.In this episode, we discuss:How do childhood experiences and past financial struggles shape the way we think about and manage money?Why can financial advice focused on what we “should have” done earlier create guilt and shame rather than lasting change?How can medical training and a career centered on serving others affect physicians' sense of worth and relationship with money?Why might women feel over-responsible for financial problems that aren't entirely theirs to solve?How can a past financial struggle continue to shape your identity even after your circumstances have changed?Why do some people continue to feel financially insecure even when they are objectively doing well?How can a scarcity mindset lead to overspending, hoarding, avoidance, or anxiety around money?What does your spending behavior reveal about the deeper needs or emotions you may be trying to meet?How can connecting your financial goals to your values and vision for your life make them more meaningful?Where do your core beliefs about money come from, and how can you begin to change beliefs that no longer serve you?Why can feeling worthy of wealth—and allowing yourself to want more—be an important part of changing your relationship with money?Drawing on her background as a psychiatrist and financial wellness coach, Dr. Shaw shares why feelings of scarcity, guilt, shame, and unworthiness can persist even when someone's financial circumstances have changed. She also discusses how understanding your relationship with money, shifting your identity, and connecting your financial decisions to your deeper values can help you move toward greater peace, freedom, and abundance.Interested in learning more about my telehealth direct specialty care practice?

Olivia Fox Cabane: The Charisma Myth Olivia Fox Cabane is one of the world's leading authorities on the science of charisma and the bestselling author of The Charisma Myth, which has been translated into 27 languages. Previously Director of Innovative Leadership for Stanford StartX, Olivia has lectured on charisma, leadership, and innovation at Harvard, Yale, MIT, the Marine War College and the United Nations. She has been featured in The New York Times, The Economist, and The Wall Street Journal and has recently released the revised version of The Charisma Myth: How Anyone Can Master the Art and Science of Personal Magnetism (Amazon, Bookshop)*. Charisma. We all notice leaders who've got it. Many of us wish we had more of it. Good news though – like so many leadership skills we talk about on this podcast, you can get better at it. In this conversation, Olivia and I explore how almost anyone can improve their charisma. Key Points Charisma is a skill that you can learn and practice. While some people have natural strengths for charisma more so than others, people are not simply born charismatic. Many just start young. You don't have to be naturally outgoing. You can be a very charismatic introvert. Presence + Power + Warmth = Charisma Power is the “Can you move mountains for me?” question. Warmth is the “Would you want to move them for me?” question. Presence is the “Are you aware of which mountains I need moved?” question. A small amount of improvement can make a big difference on how you are perceived. Three quick tips to improve your charisma: Lower the intonation of your voice at the end of your sentences. Reduce how quickly and how often you nod. Pause for two full seconds before you speak.

It's not a character flaw that you're replaying that comment, that tone, that thing you should have said — it's your mind doing its job badly. This episode breaks down what rumination actually is, why it feels productive even though it never resolves anything, and why the standard advice (stop overthinking it, just think positively) quietly makes it worse. Brett Ingram reframes the 2am replay as misdirected care — real concern with nowhere to go — and walks through three moves to redirect it: creating distance from the loop, asking whether it wants an action or a feeling, and giving it a channel out of your head. What You'll Learn in This Episode What rumination actually is, and why replaying something forty times leaves you with zero new information Why your mind loops specifically on things that feel unfinished and unsafe at the same time Why most replays are about people, not tasks — and what that says about how your brain tracks belonging The research showing rumination doesn't just fail to solve problems, it actively makes you worse at solving them Why "just stop overthinking it" and "just think positively" both backfire, and the famous experiment that proves it The reframe at the center of the episode: rumination is misdirected care, not a malfunction Three concrete moves — creating distance, asking "action or feeling," and finding a channel — plus a simple "two a.m. reset" you can use tonight Episode Timestamps [00:00] The 2am replay: reliving a conversation frame by frame [01:00] The real question — what is your mind actually trying to do? [02:00] Naming it: what rumination actually is, and why it feels productive but isn't [03:00] The "Buckner moment" — watching your worst footage on repeat [05:00] You're not broken: the Harvard study on mind-wandering and mood [06:00] Why the mind loops: unfinished and unsafe at the same time [07:00] Why most loops are social — belonging, safety, and the people around you [08:00] Susan Nolen-Hoeksema's research: rumination makes the problem harder to solve [09:00] The white bear experiment — why forcing yourself to stop backfires [10:00] The reframe: rumination is misdirected care [12:00] Move 1: Name the loop and create distance (distanced self-talk) [14:00] Move 2: Ask the one honest question — action or feeling? [17:00] Move 3: Give it a channel — say it, write it, move your body [19:00] The limits: when it's more than rumination, and when the loop is right [20:00] The Two AM Reset — a three-step practice you can use tonight Episode Summary You're an intelligent, capable adult who solves real problems all day — and yet at 2am, you're powerless against one specific conversation, replaying it frame by frame, hunting for the edit that would make it come out clean. Brett Ingram argues that this loop isn't a malfunction. It's your mind trying to protect you. It's just going about it badly. Psychologists have a name for it: rumination — the habit of responding to distress by replaying the causes, the meaning, and the what-ifs, without ever moving toward resolving anything. That's the trap. Rumination feels like processing, so it feels productive, but you can watch the same footage forty times and end up with exactly zero new information — the same trap the Fever Pitch character falls into, replaying the Buckner moment instead of living his own life. The mind loops on anything that feels unfinished and unsafe at the same time — a conversation with no clean ending, paired with something you care about (your competence, your kindness, your standing with someone) feeling at stake. Put those together, and your mind treats the moment like an active threat, refusing to file it away because filing it away feels like giving up on protecting you. Most replays are social rather than practical, because for most of human history, belonging was survival — which is why you might replay an awkward comment to a friend for a week and forget an actual mistake at work by Friday. The cruel twist, backed by the late Yale psychologist Susan Nolen-Hoeksema's decades of research, is that rumination doesn't just fail to solve the problem — it actively makes you worse at solving it, muddling your thinking and eroding the very relationships you're looping about. Brett takes apart the two most common pieces of advice — "just stop overthinking it" and "just think positively" — and shows why both backfire, using Daniel Wegner's famous 1980s "white bear" experiment: people told not to think about a white bear end up thinking about it more, not less, because suppression forces part of the mind to stand guard over the very thought it's trying to avoid. The reframe at the center of the episode: rumination is misdirected care — real concern about something that matters, aimed at a problem it can't solve by staying in your head. From there, Brett offers three moves. First, name the loop and create distance from it, using Ethan Kross's research on "distanced self-talk" — talking to yourself in the second or third person instead of "I." Second, ask the loop one honest question: is this a real action you need to take, or a feeling you need to let yourself feel? The two require opposite responses, and confusing them is why loops never end. Third, give it a channel out of your head — say it to someone, write it down, or move your body. Brett closes with two honest caveats: when the looping is relentless, trauma-linked, or pulling you somewhere dark, that's a sign to talk to a professional, not a podcast framework. And sometimes the loop is right — it's not malfunctioning, it's a messenger for a conversation you've been avoiding. The episode ends with a simple "two a.m. reset" — name it, ask action-or-feeling, pick one channel — and the reminder that the goal was never to stop caring. It's to give the caring somewhere to go. Resources Mentioned Susan Nolen-Hoeksema — Late Yale psychologist whose decades of research established that rumination impairs, rather than aids, problem-solving Daniel Wegner — Psychologist behind the 1980s "white bear" thought-suppression experiment and the concept of the "ironic process of mental control" Ethan Kross — University of Michigan psychologist and author of Chatter, whose research on "distanced self-talk" underlies the episode's first move A well-known Harvard mind-wandering study — Real-time experience-sampling research referenced in the episode finding minds wander roughly 47% of waking hours (researcher/citation not named in the source transcript — confirm before publishing, likely Killingsworth & Gilbert, "A Wandering Mind Is an Unhappy Mind," 2010) Fever Pitch — Film referenced for the scene of a character replaying his team's worst loss on repeat instead of moving on Frequently Asked Questions Why can't I stop replaying an embarrassing or painful conversation in my head? Your mind loops on things that feel both unfinished (no clean resolution) and unsafe (something you care about — your competence, your standing with someone — feels at stake). When both are true at once, your mind treats it like an active threat and keeps it "open" rather than filing it away, because filing it away feels like giving up on protecting you. What is rumination, and how is it different from normal reflection? Rumination is the habit of replaying the causes, meaning, and what-ifs of a distressing moment without ever moving toward resolving it. A lesson has an endpoint — you learn something and the thinking is done. A loop has no endpoint — you circle the same ground and arrive nowhere, no matter how many times you replay it. Why doesn't telling myself to "just stop thinking about it" work? Because suppressing a thought requires part of your mind to keep checking whether you're thinking about it — which keeps the thought alive instead of closing it. Psychologist Daniel Wegner demonstrated this with his famous "white bear" experiment: people told not to think about a white bear thought about it more than people who were never given the instruction at all. What is "distanced self-talk," and how does it help with rumination? It's talking to yourself using your own name or "you" instead of "I" — for example, "you're looping on this again" instead of "why did I say that." Researcher Ethan Kross found this small shift creates enough psychological distance to lower distress and help people see a situation more clearly, without suppressing the thought. How do I know if I'm dealing with a real action or just a feeling that needs to be felt? Ask the loop directly: is there something I actually need to do or say, or is this just a feeling I haven't let myself feel? If it's an action, write down the smallest next step — the moment there's a plan, the urge to keep replaying it tends to drain away. If it's a feeling, name it and let it be there; you can't think your way out of something that just needs to be felt. What's the fastest thing I can do at 2am when the loop starts? Try the "two a.m. reset": name the loop and step back from it ("this is a loop, not a lesson"), ask whether it's an action or a feeling and respond accordingly, then pick one channel for tomorrow — tell one person, write one page, or take one walk. Even just naming the loop is a win on its own. When is replaying a conversation actually a sign I need to talk to a professional? If the looping is relentless, tied to a trauma you keep reliving, feels intrusive and frightening, or is pulling you into a darkness that's hard to climb out of, that's beyond ordinary rumination — it's a sign to talk to a real professional, not something a framework alone is meant to fix.

P.M. Edition for Aug. 20. Colleges are facing a demographic cliff—lower birth rates means fewer 18-year-olds. WSJ higher education reporter Doug Belkin explains what impact that's likely to have on colleges–and why it might not make it any easier to get into top-tier schools. Plus, Walmart was the biggest decliner in the Dow after it reported weaker sales growth in its second quarter. We hear from Journal retail reporter Sarah Nassauer about how Walmart's earnings stack up to its rival Target. And employers are expected to pay even more for health insurance next year, which means their workers costs' are probably going up too. Alex Ossola hosts.

Wow, here's some blockbuster economic news from Team Trump: The income gap between the rich and the rest of us is over!How do we know this? Because Scott Bessent says so. Who's he? Secretary of the Treasury – Trump's top economic official. A son of inherited wealth, he's a Yale graduate, a Wall Street whiz, a billion-dollar hedge fund speculator, and… well, Scott says he knows financial stuff.So he officially proclaimed this month that the “K-shaped economy… is a thing of the past.” He's referring to the letter K, which economists use as a graphic shorthand to show the wealth of moneyed elites is zooming up, while the well-being of the middle-class and poor plummets. “I got sick of hearing about this K-shaped economy,” snarled this potentate of high-finance. So he did what Trump would do – he simply decreed that the rich-poor economic divide is “over.” As evidence, he pointed to Trump's elimination of the federal tax on workers' tips.Could someone please buy a clue for our eminent treasury chief?No doubt some waiters and bartenders will get a few nickels and dimes from this token tax ploy, but it doesn't even register on the scale of economic fairness. Plus, a partisan Wall Street millionaire like Scott has zero credibility with working class families. They'll know when inequality is “over,” because their in-come will finally begin to cover the ever-rising out-go caused by corporate greed and plutocratic government.America's last great Republican President, Abraham Lincoln said: “You can't fool all the people all the time.” But Trump and his clique of clueless henchmen like Scott Bessent keep trying to prove Lincoln wrong.Do something!To take on income inequality for real, check out these resources from our friends at Inequality.org.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

Most money advice is tactical: budget this, invest that. Dr. Billina Shaw brings something almost no one else does, a psychiatrist's lens. A Yale-educated, triple board-certified psychiatrist turned financial wellness strategist, she joins Laura to go underneath the numbers to the behavioral and psychological roots of how we relate to money. Fresh off her own pivot, laid off from a federal role and ninety days into full-time entrepreneurship, Billina gets vulnerable about discovering that her own anxiety wasn't about the bills, it was about worth and identity. She and Laura name financial trauma and how it shows up, especially for Black women carrying the "slave and save" mentality, and walk through her Aligned Health and Wealth framework: aligning with purpose, identifying with abundance, abolishing limiting beliefs, and acting with authority. A grounding, judgment-free conversation about building wealth from the inside out. In this episode: What financial trauma is, the three forms it takes (history, household, and her story), and how it quietly drives overspending, hoarding, and avoidance Why budgeting alone never fixes it, and how positive reinforcement and abundance, not shame, actually change our relationship with money The Aligned Health and Wealth framework, and why disentangling your worth from your work is the first inside-out move   About Dr. Billina Dr. Billina Shaw is a Yale-educated, triple board-certified psychiatrist turned financial wellness strategist who helps women build aligned wealth from the inside out.

What if UFOs do not defy gravity through advanced propulsion, but through consciousness itself? Yale-trained philosopher and author Christopher Noël joins Martin Willis to explore his proposal that consciousness may be an undiscovered field of nature capable of interacting with physical reality. They discuss the Oz Factor, altered perception, missing time, unexplained cold and silence during encounters, electromagnetic disturbances, psychokinesis, orbs, UFO propulsion and the similarities connecting UAP, ghosts, Sasquatch and other high-strangeness phenomena. Christopher also shares his provocative theory that apparent alien beings and craft may temporarily manifest from an unseen level of reality rather than simply traveling here from distant planets. The conversation also touches on the Buga Sphere, Nazca mummies, the Ariel School encounter and whether UFOs use consciousness to manipulate matter. Christopher Noël is the author of The Anatomy of Thin Air and Homegrown Monsters.SHOW NOTESCONTACT AND SUPPORT

L'éducation des enfants est au centre des débats depuis plusieurs années en France, avec deux visions assez clivantes qui se dégagent.Celle où l'autoritarisme prime avant tout, avec un retour au temps de nos parents pour “cadrer” nos enfants qui seraient tous devenus des enfants roi à force de ne rien leur imposer ou celle qui prône la bienveillance avec ses travers où les besoins des parents ne sont pas assez pris en compte.Franck Ramus, directeur de la recherche au CNRS qui dirige l'équipe développement cognitif et pathologie, publie régulièrement sur son blog les mises à jours des études scientifiques sur le sujet. Avec un regard de chercheur qui tente de vulgariser des approches complexes, Franck Ramus a voulu recentrer les débats au-delà du clivage éducation bienveillante et autoritaire.Il a préfacé le livre d'Alan Kazdin, professeur de psychologie et pédopsychiatrie à l'université de Yale, qui définit son approche comme celle d'une méthode éducative basée sur les preuves. Dans cet épisode on aborde le sujet du time out et sa réelle définition, on se penche un peu plus sur l'efficacité des punitions, sur le renforcement positif et ses effets bénéfiques mais aussi sur la meilleure façon d'apprendre pour les enfants et la problématique des écrans ou non. Cet épisode peut vous challenger dans votre perception de l'éducation, comme ça peut l'être pour moi, et c'est tant mieux. On a tous besoin de se remettre en questions de temps en temps, de ne pas rester planter sur nos convictions.Mais surtout, vous êtes le meilleur parent pour votre enfant, seul vous, savez ce qui est bon pour lui ou elle.

Katie Rizzo holds two master's degrees in science from Yale and the University of Colorado School of Medicine and has spent more than 15 years teaching high school AP Biology and Anatomy.She never thought of herself as a writer. That changed on September 17, 2024, when she lost her firstborn son to substance use disorder.Before her son died, she had never written poetry, but suddenly she had no other language. She began writing as a way to reach him, to somehow connect across that invisible divide.She is still early in this journey, not even two years in, but she is walking it with remarkable honesty and courage.She is sharing her story for a reason. She knows there are other parents living this same reality, grieving a child lost to something the world often stigmatizes and not always feeling there is space to mourn openly. She wants them to know they are not alone.In this episode of Grieving Out Loud, she shares her son's story, what she wants others to understand about loving someone struggling with addiction, and how she is finding healing by telling the truth instead of hiding it.Read more of Katie's writing on her website here. Related episodes:Why 72,000 Deaths a Year Is Not a Success StoryCookies, Grief, and Hope: A Mother's Recipe for Healing After Fentanyl LossA Brain Scientist's Warning Every Parent Should HearSend us Fan MailBehind every number is a story of a life cut short, a family shattered, and a community devastated.They were...daughterssonsmothersfathersfriendswiveshusbandscousinsboyfriendsgirlfriends.They were More Than Just A Number.

Marc Brackett (Dealing with Feeling, Permission to Feel, RULER) is a psychologist, professor, and founding director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence. Marc joins Armchair Expert to discuss the childhood trauma that shaped his life's work, the fallout from disclosing it on national television at 12, and the inspiring uncle whose simple compassion finally made him feel safe.
