Note: this episode was recorded the first week of the 'new administration' during Trump's second term in office.
America is fast becoming a fascist oligarchy. Or as Bernie Sanders puts it, a Kleptocracy. Dive into the unsettling realities of Trump's re-election and the eerie parallels between current events and some of the most authoritarian regimes in history. In this gripping episode, we explore the profound fears and anxieties permeating the nation as the political landscape shifts dramatically. We unpack how tactics like 'flooding the zone' aim not only to destabilize and overwhelm the public, but to terrorize. Amid the chaos, figures like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez emerge as beacons of hope and resilience while Language of the Soul host, Dominick Domingo urges us to find strength in solidarity, subversion, satire and humor.
The emotional aftermath of this election cycle leaves many grappling with futility and paralysis. By sharing his own personal struggle, Dominick suggests that as important as examining societal structures is the calling to look within and reflect. The key to overcoming futility and galvanizing may lie in the intricate relationship between the inner realm of our emotional lives and the expression of it on a macrocosmic level. After all, the collective reality we share is nothing more than an amalgamation of our subjective realities! This episode is a call to action to shift from fear to love, thereby transforming the world we manifest!

Now more than ever, it’s tempting to throw our hands in the air and surrender to futility in the face of global strife. Storytellers know we must renew hope daily. We are being called upon to embrace our interconnectivity, transform paradigms, and trust the ripple effect will play its part. In the words of Lion King producer Don Hahn (Episode 8), “Telling stories is one of the most important professions out there right now.” We here at Language of the Soul Podcast could not agree more.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
