MarkHOST
6:55
I agree with all of that.
MariaGUEST
6:56
Uh, yeah, some of the items are...
MariaGUEST
6:58
I mean, don't get me wrong.
MariaGUEST
6:59
Even I agree.
MariaGUEST
7:00
I think they are...
MariaGUEST
7:01
It's got so expensive now, it is cra- it's a crazy, crazy time.
MariaGUEST
7:05
It, it's not even affordable anymore, is it? But it's like anything, people like to just have...
MarkHOST
9:24
... that's nicely designed that hasn't got the name on.

MariaGUEST
8:48
He was really easy to talk to.
MariaGUEST
8:51
The conversation was just kinda natural.
MariaGUEST
8:54
There was, um, no uncomfortable feeling at all.
MariaGUEST
8:58
He told me about this woman that he was dating, and I didn't know her know her, but I had heard about her.
MariaGUEST
9:06
And he was, like, really, really in love with her.
MariaGUEST
9:12
It was kinda sweet.

[gentle music]
28:46
Also sagt sie Folgendes:
MariaGUEST
28:49
Und hab gesagt: „Und im Übrigen, dann gehe ich ans Ministerium und dann mache ich eine Dienstaufsichtsbeschwerde, weil hier was schiefläuft.
MariaGUEST
28:56
Ich bin hier und ich sage dir, ich mache ernst.
MariaGUEST
28:58
Es wäre nicht das erste Mal." Und sagt er: „Wieso? Wie, was ist passiert?" Und da hat er mich dann, hat er mich gefragt, was.
MariaGUEST
29:05
Da hab ich gesagt: „Mir ist schon mal so was passiert, dass mich jemand in den Mund geküsst hat.
MariaGUEST
29:10
Und zwar bei meinem Debüt."

50 MINS LATER

78:54
Maria ist sich deswegen sicher, es wird sich nur dann etwas ändern, wenn Betroffene aufstehen und sich gegen Machtmissbrauch und sexualisierte Gewalt zu Wehr setzen.
MariaGUEST
79:03
Eigentlich müssen wir als Frauen kämpfen und nicht als Einzelkämpfer.
47:21
Maria.
MariaGUEST
47:21
I just want to thank you for wonderful presentation and wonderful speech with constantly-
47:26
Thank you
MariaGUEST
47:26
... sharing all the insights with us today.
MariaGUEST
47:29
Uh, you mentioned that you still, uh, believe in humans, and, uh, we talked about, a lot about technology today, and I'm sure, uh, everybody, uh, now discuss technology most of the time.
MariaGUEST
47:42
But I wanna dive deeper into human being side and ask your advice what, uh, humans, what muscle we as humans need to train nowadays.
4:40
Like, what, what's the vibe like in, in Chicago for high school kids today, especially at the end of the year?
MariaGUEST
4:46
It, it's, it's hectic.
MariaGUEST
4:47
Um, but I, as a Spanish teacher, I teach, you know...
MariaGUEST
4:50
It's an elective, so kids kind of fit it in wherever they can.
MariaGUEST
4:53
So I have freshmen, sophomores, juniors, seniors sometimes in the same class.
MariaGUEST
4:57
It's a little bit crazier there, our school schedule.
MariaGUEST
4:59
So, um, the seniors are definitely riding the wave of senioritis.

29 MINS LATER

33:49
But overall, what did you think of these experiences from somebody that, that knows more than most, I would say?

Unraveling Time Travel

May 13 · 30m

3:52
She described the moment that Ryan, one of her non-speaking students, received information from a 13th century monk by remote viewing through time.
MariaGUEST
3:59
I had a student who was working on a lesson with me about Benedictine art, and he commented before we started, he said, "It efforizes the Catholic Church." So I said, "I don't really know that word.
MariaGUEST
4:14
I don't know if you misspelled or if it's a word I don't know." So I asked his mom, who always sits in on the sessions, if she minded looking up the word, and she did.
MariaGUEST
4:23
She commented that the word efforize does mean to have an influence or an impact on something, and that it was dropped from the vernacular in the 1600s, so it's not used anymore.
MariaGUEST
4:38
And when I asked the student how he had gotten the information, he responded that he had thought shared with a magistrate from 1345.
MariaGUEST
4:47
So that made me curious about can you thought share with both people that are in the physical realm or possibly those also in the spirit world.
MariaGUEST
4:55
And I also wondered, can you actually go back in time to have these types of conversations?
7:33
And in the first Talk Tracks episode, Maria and her new classroom assistant, Dan, talked about how a student seemingly remote viewed their lunch by going back in time to see what they ate.

4:47
But what other kind of things can we do?
MariaGUEST
4:50
Uh, there's a lot for me, a lot [laughs] during the day.
MariaGUEST
4:54
One thing I used to do that Bruce was like, "Uh, it's, it's a little flippant, so maybe you should try to find something else," is, um, I would just start singing the song Jesus Take the Wheel.
MariaGUEST
5:04
[laughs]

12 MINS LATER

17:03
Mm-hmm.
MariaGUEST
17:03
And we sing hymns together.
MariaGUEST
17:05
We do our catechism together.
MariaGUEST
17:07
We do scripture memory, and the catechism goes along with what they're learning in their Sunday school class at church, so there's overlap.
33:54
Mm.
MariaGUEST
33:54
Um, he's experiencing malnutrition and continues to be repressed through being in solitary confinement regardless of, um, his medical conditions.
MariaGUEST
34:05
And so we, um...
MariaGUEST
34:07
I'm part of the campaign.
MariaGUEST
34:08
It's called the Xinachtli Freedom Campaign, and it's a campaign that, um, that is working to free Xinachtli through different means, that is through community outreach, uh, legal, legal strategies, and pressure against TDCJ.
MariaGUEST
34:25
And right now we're demanding for TDCJ to release him and grant him his freedom.
MariaGUEST
34:30
Xinachtli is no threat to the public.
39:20
Are there, um, any activities that have been planned for Shinatsi?
7:03
Do, do you feel like Mission 44, being here today, has unlocked more potential for you going forward?
MariaGUEST
7:08
Definitely.
MariaGUEST
7:08
I talked to a fluid engineer, and she was...
MariaGUEST
7:10
She also had a similar thing that I wanted to study, so I'm going into biomedical engineering, and she's like, "I went from chemical to doing fluids." So it definitely inspired me to consider this as a possibility.
DianaGUEST
7:25
Thank you.
MariaGUEST
7:25
Thank you.
33:39
For Maria, it was a devastating end to four years of trying to find out what happened to her little girl.
MariaGUEST
33:49
For me, she was very special.
MariaGUEST
33:53
She was happy, and she liked flowers, stuffed animals.
MariaGUEST
33:57
She used to get along well with people.
MariaGUEST
34:02
When she left, she told me that she wanted to keep studying and working, because she was a very hard worker.
MariaGUEST
34:08
From the time she was little, she was a hard worker.
MariaGUEST
34:12
[instrumental music]
34:52
She did everything possible she could do to try to contact people, but she didn't know who to call.
6:34
As the country adjusts to these new and volatile political realities, would creating its own national military be a possibility the public might want to consider? Do you think Iceland should have an army?
MariaGUEST
6:47
Uh, no, I don't think so.
MariaGUEST
6:48
I think with NATO, I think that's enough, and we have the, um, Konsulat Hernar, uh, like the, um, the bilateral agreement with the United States.
7:06
Why not?
MariaGUEST
7:07
We're so small.
MariaGUEST
7:08
It doesn't make sense.
MariaGUEST
7:09
[laughs] We don't have enough people and that want to be in the army.
SamGUEST
7:34
Vraiment, je ne veux pas que ça soit gâché par un appel au préalable qui enlève une partie de la surprise.
MariaGUEST
7:41
Et à partir de là, en fait, toutes mes angoisses vont se reporter sur des trucs ridicules.
MariaGUEST
7:46
Euh, de quoi j'ai l'air ? Est-ce que je me maquille ? Est-ce que je me coiffe ? Je sais plus quoi faire.
MariaGUEST
7:51
Vraiment, je panique.
MariaGUEST
7:52
Je suis à deux doigts de m'enfuir.
MariaGUEST
7:55
Je me sens complètement mais alors débordée.
MariaGUEST
7:57
J'ai-- Là, j'ai vraiment mis ma vraie vieille peau.

21 MINS LATER

SamGUEST
29:18
Et je, j'ai, j'ai juste envie de pleurer et de rentrer chez moi et dormir encore une fois.
SamGUEST
44:47
Euh, ça dure quelques secondes, mais j'ai l'impression que ça dure beaucoup plus longtemps que ça.
MariaGUEST
44:51
Et là, je lui demande : « Elle s'appelle comment ? » Elle me dit : « Sam ».
MariaGUEST
44:55
Et j'entends même à sa respiration qu'avant que je lui dise qu'elle a déjà compris en fait.
MariaGUEST
45:00
Et là, je lui dis : « Tu sais que c'est moi la mère », mais ça a été un, un mot tellement dur à sortir.
MariaGUEST
45:05
C'est resté bloqué dans la gorge là, parce que je l'avais jamais prononcé en fait.
MariaGUEST
45:09
Et Claire me répond : « Je le savais.
MariaGUEST
45:12
Vous avez la même tronche ».
SamGUEST
46:01
Et tout d'un coup, j'ai, j'ai un flashback et je me souviens de, d'une conversation qu'on a eue quatre ans plus tôt.
2:19
Bienvenue dans Passage.
MariaGUEST
2:26
[musique de fond] Je grandis à La Réunion dans les années quatre-vingt.
MariaGUEST
2:37
Je déménage énormément parce que mon père à La Réunion déménage beaucoup.
MariaGUEST
2:42
Ensuite, quand j'ai neuf ans, ma mère déménage en métropole.
MariaGUEST
2:46
Dans mes deux familles, on ne parle pas.
MariaGUEST
2:48
On sent des tabous qui pèsent, des secrets.
MariaGUEST
2:51
Du côté de ma mère, donc, qui est picarde, agricultrice, c'est marche ou crève.

9 MINS LATER

12:01
[musique mélancolique]
speaker_6SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
9:19
President Putin, who insisted it would never come, warning that no one should try to stop him.
MariaGUEST
9:26
As the full-scale invasion started, she believes that it was her duty to report on what was happening in the occupied areas.
MariaGUEST
9:34
Ukrainian journalists are very brave, but not every Ukrainian journalist would go to occupied area because the risks are very obvious.
MariaGUEST
9:41
Russia hates independent journalism.
MariaGUEST
9:44
But she was one of those who was like, "I have to because if I don't report from the occupied territories, who will do it instead of me?" So first time she went to the occupied areas, she was detained.
MariaGUEST
9:58
I think she spent ten days in Russian detention, and then she was released.
MariaGUEST
10:05
And the condition for her to be released, uh, was that she had to record a video where she would say thank you to the Russian soldiers for saving her life, and I saw the video.
speaker_6SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
10:56
Acres of farmland-
33:43
The three-day-olds.
MariaGUEST
33:43
Yeah, so our baby chicks learn to go behind one, uh, small panel, and behind such panel they will find food.
MariaGUEST
33:50
And they had two panels between which to choose, and one had a shape on top and one had not.
MariaGUEST
33:55
So basically, the shape was the cue.
MariaGUEST
33:57
You go to the panel with the shape, and behind that you will find your food.
MariaGUEST
34:01
And at this stage there is no sound, so they still don't have any multimodal situation, and the shape is both round and spiky.
MariaGUEST
34:09
After they learn this association, so check for the shape in order to get the food, they are tested.
34:58
And so when you took it back down to one day, first day of life for these chicks, and you ran an experiment that had some of the same elements, but there were some differences, like there was no food involved, they still kind of showed this preference, right, linking these two things.
3:27
This is Nailah's mother, Maria.
MariaGUEST
3:30
I wanted her to be successful, and she was.
MariaGUEST
3:33
She lived her name.
5:37
Text her, she'd reply instantly, always.
MariaGUEST
5:40
She managed to water all of her relationships.
MariaGUEST
5:44
She spent time with everyone.
MariaGUEST
5:47
Friends, family.
43:08
Shortly after his cousin Joe created the Facebook page, a woman named Maria, who'd gone to school with Gunner way back in the eighth grade, happened to click on it.
MariaGUEST
43:19
It was a dreary winter month, I was bored out of my mind, and I'm on Facebook, and I'm scrolling through.
MariaGUEST
43:26
And I happen to see Al Lindbloom's Facebook page.
MariaGUEST
43:30
I don't have any memories of him, but it flashed back to just this, "Oh, that guy." I think actually most voted to go to prison back when we were in high school.
MariaGUEST
43:40
We traveled in completely different circles.
MariaGUEST
43:42
I was the nerd in high school who followed all the rules and did everything right, never got detention, never got suspended, and he was always in fights.
MariaGUEST
43:50
And I knew him to be this delinquent, if you will, who dropped out of school and went to adult ed.
47:44
I, I'll marry you the day I get out.
Ike SriskandarajaHOST
2:24
Ms. Maria, the director of the Manitou School, holds up a white cardboard box about the size of a shoebox.
MariaGUEST
2:32
So I have put something in this box, and you can't break it by shaking it, so you can shake it, you can move it, and we're gonna pass the box around, and you're going to tell me what you think is in the box.
MariaGUEST
2:44
Okay?
Ike SriskandarajaHOST
5:25
She's trying to prepare these kids for life, and that's the case she makes to them.
MariaGUEST
5:29
And sometimes we all have things that we can't know, sometimes because Ms. Maria won't open the box, but more often because it's just impossible to know, right? Like, your parents can't tell you certain things, or you can't get into somebody else's head, or you just can't know the reason for why something happened.
MariaGUEST
5:51
So learning to live with that discomfort of not knowing is a really important thing.
MariaGUEST
5:56
And that's part of what we were practicing here today.
17:43
Spooked! Now then, when Maria Faust was only three years old, her family moved to Los Angeles
MariaNARRATOR
18:11
AngelesBut Maria grew up listening to those stories all about her mother's childhood in the Mexican Sierra Mountains.
MariaNARRATOR
18:21
Spooked.
MariaGUEST
18:38
All of her sisters had lots of chil- everybody had six or seven children.
MariaGUEST
18:43
Her own, my own grandmother had 12, for heaven sakes.
MariaGUEST
18:46
My mom only had two girls, and the pressure was always on to have boys and have boys and have boys.
MariaGUEST
18:52
And because she did not have boys, then somehow she was minimized.
20:29
But there is a garment manufacturing industry in the US, right? That's what Maria does.
MariaGUEST
20:38
(Maria speaking Spanish).
23:30
Check your math again."
MariaGUEST
23:31
(Maria speaking Spanish).
5:43
And in the beginning, Maria was not so fast.
MariaGUEST
5:46
Ay, hice como 100 piezas en todo el día porque no sabía mover la tijera.
MariaGUEST
5:52
Ah.
5:52
She didn't know how to move the scissors, she says, so she'd do, like, 100 pieces of clothing a day.
MariaGUEST
5:57
Muy poquito, pero el mister pues no más lo único que te decía, "Amiga, rápido.
MariaGUEST
6:02
Amiga, rápido."
117:40
Oh, the speech in White Lotus.
MariaGUEST
117:42
The speech in White Lotus, yes.
MariaGUEST
117:44
Came up and if you missed that episode, it was earlier this week and we do talk about that speech a fair amount.
MariaGUEST
117:51
Um, "Where are the pleasure centers in the brain?" Okay.
117:55
Oh.
MariaGUEST
117:55
Uh, the nucleus accumbens is often referred to as the pleasure center of the brain.
MariaGUEST
118:01
It's a subcortical brain structure involved in positive effect and feelings of reward.
MariaGUEST
118:06
When we engage in pleasurable activities, the nucleus accumbens becomes activated, leading to the release of dopamine which reinforces the behavior.
