The healing power of fitness goes far beyond physical benefits—for today’s guest, it’s a form of self-expression and a celebration of what the body can do. In this episode, host Nora McInerny sits down with fitness personality Ivylis Rivera, who shares her deeply personal journey of navigating life with Chronic Migraine while holding onto her passion for movement. Ivylis opens up about the struggle of staying active while facing the fear of triggering a headache or migraine attack and the resilience it takes to keep pushing forward—a resilience that carried her through the challenging journey of finding a Chronic Migraine treatment plan that worked for her. Join Nora and Ivylis as they explore the concept of “soft living,” a philosophy Ivylis embraces—staying active, listening to your body, and building trust in oneself.

In Episode 5 of The Nerd Reich , Gil Duran, Rev. Otis Moss III, and Dr. Emile Torres unravel the terrifying rise of a new techno-religion sweeping Silicon Valley: TESCREAL — a powerful and unsettling fusion of Transhumanism, Extropianism, Singularitarianism, Cosmism, Rationalism, Effective Altruism, and Long-termism. This episode exposes how these ideologies promise utopia but often mask colonial mindsets, moral blind spots, and a dangerous disregard for human dignity. From the quest for digital immortality to space colonization dreams, these techno-beliefs are shaping a future that may sacrifice the present, exclude the marginalized, and idolize technology over love and ethics. Subscribe to the Nerd Reich for more: https://www.thenerdreich.com/ 🧠 Key Themes: The cult of the singularity and its apocalyptic vision How “rational” thinking leads to ethical absurdities Why tech billionaires are building a new secular eschatology The real cost of prioritizing “future lives” over real people The beauty and burden of being human Love as resistance to empire, exclusion, and algorithmic control 💬 Quotes That Hit Hard: “Their dark gospel has a name: TESCREAL.” “They believe they can transcend humanity with technology.” “Marginalized communities will be marginalized even more.” “Love undermines empires. Love hacks the algorithm.” This is not just a critique of tech ideology — it’s a call to reclaim our humanity, challenge techno-colonial narratives, and build a future grounded in ethics, inclusion, and love. 👉 Subscribe, comment, and share if you're ready to confront the myths of Silicon Valley and defend the dignity of the present. #TESCREAL #Transhumanism #Tech #TheNerdReich #SiliconValley #Podcast #EffectiveAltruism #Longtermism #ElonMusk…

In the explosive first episode of The Nerd Reich podcast, host Gil Duran teams up with economic sociologist Brooke Harrington and internet politics expert Dave Karpf to decode the alarming rise of "network states." They're diving deep into how tech billionaires like Elon Musk are trying to dismantle traditional governance to create their own power structures through crypto and artificial intelligence. They discuss the hidden dangers behind AI-driven governance, the disturbing intersection of wealth and political influence, and why understanding human behavior through humanities matters now more than ever. Plus, they share bold predictions about where tech authoritarianism is heading and reveal powerful strategies for resisting the growing control of billionaire tech elites. Don't miss this essential conversation about the fight for democracy's future! Mentioned in this Episode: The Nerd Reich Newsletter: http://www.thenerdreich.com Dave Karpf's scathing review of the Network State book: "The Tech Barons have a blueprint drawn in crayon. They have not thought any of this through." https://davekarpf.substack.com/p/the-... Brooke Harrington's book, "Offshore: Stealth Wealth and the New Colonialism" https://bookshop.org/p/books/offshore... Takeaways: The network state aims to replace democratic institutions with tech-driven governance. Tech billionaires are concentrating power in their hands under the guise of innovation. Historical attempts at reconfiguring power have often exploited vulnerable nations. Crypto is seen as a tool to undermine the nation-state's power. The Supreme Court's decisions have exacerbated the influence of money in politics. The network state movement reflects a desire to weaken government and labor. The ideological fervor of tech billionaires can be likened to a religious belief. Everyday people may face a future of broken systems and governance by subscription. Being a billionaire can warp your mental health and perception of reality. Democracy is fragile and currently facing significant challenges. AI governance raises concerns about efficiency and human oversight. The humanities provide essential insights into human behavior and decision-making. Small acts of rebellion can effectively challenge powerful institutions. The importance of storytelling in shaping a better future is crucial. We must critically examine the definition of efficiency in governance. Public protests and ridicule can serve as powerful tools against the elite. The need for a recommitment to democracy and public service is urgent.…
