LikedWe’ve turned intuition into a buzzword—flattened it into a slogan, a gut feeling, or a vague whisper we don’t always know how to hear. But what if intuition is so much more? What if it's one of the most powerful tools we have—and we’ve just forgotten how to use it? In this episode, I’m joined by Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir , Icelandic thought leader, filmmaker, and author of InnSæi: Icelandic Wisdom for Turbulent Times . Hrund has spent over 20 years studying and teaching the science and art of intuition through her TED Talk, Netflix documentary ( InnSæi: The Power of Intuition ), and global work on leadership, innovation, and inner knowing. Together, we explore what intuition really is (hint: not woo-woo), how to cultivate it in a culture obsessed with logic and overthinking, and why your ability to listen to yourself might be the most essential skill you can develop. In This Episode, We Cover: ✅ Why we’ve misunderstood intuition—and how to reclaim it ✅ Practical ways to strengthen your intuitive muscle ✅ What Icelandic wisdom teaches us about inner knowing ✅ How to use intuition during uncertainty and decision-making ✅ Why trusting yourself is an act of rebellion (and power) Intuition isn’t magic—it’s a deep, internal guidance system that already exists inside you. The question is: are you listening?

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedThis week on Christories, we're talking about the THE OLYMPICS! The Olympic Games originated in ancient Greece nearly 3,000 years ago and were first recorded in 776 BCE in Olympia. They were held every 4 years, a period known as an Olympiad, in honor of Zeus, the king of the Greek gods. Only freeborn Greek men were allowed to compete in the ancient games. The modern Olympic Games were revived by French educator Baron Pierre de Coubertin in the late 19th century. The first modern Olympics took place in Athens in 1896, featuring 280 participants from 13 nations. Today, the Olympics are the world's foremost sports competition, with over 200 nations participating. The five Olympic rings symbolize the union of the five inhabited continents and the meeting of athletes from around the world. The modern Olympic flame is lit at the ancient site of Olympia and then relayed to the host city. The marathon was inspired by the ancient Greek soldier Pheidippides. The first Winter Olympics were held in Chamonix, France, in 1924. Women first competed in the modern Olympics in 1900 in Paris. Olympic gold medals are actually made mostly of silver, with only about six grams of gold plating. THIS YEAR the Olympics are being held in Paris! Who are you rooting for?

The Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments to the United States Constitution, was ratified on December 15, 1791. It was created to protect individual liberties and limit government power. Key figures like James Madison played a crucial role in drafting these amendments, addressing the concerns of Anti-Federalists who feared a too-powerful central government. The Bill of Rights guarantees fundamental rights such as freedom of speech, religion, and the press, the right to bear arms, protection against unreasonable searches and seizures, and rights to fair trials, among others.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedThis week on Christories, we're talking about the THE FIRST GAY PRESIDENT OF USA!!! 🙌 James Buchanan, the 15th President of the United States, served from 1857 to 1861. Born in Pennsylvania in 1791, he had a long political career that included roles as a congressman, senator, and diplomat before his presidency. Buchanan is often criticized for his inability to address the growing sectional tensions that eventually led to the Civil War. Rumors about Buchanan's sexuality stem from his close relationship with William Rufus King, a fellow politician and diplomat. The two men lived together for over a decade and were referred to by contemporaries in terms that today might suggest a romantic relationship. While there is no definitive proof of Buchanan's sexual orientation, these speculations have led some historians and biographers to consider the possibility that he may have been gay. Nonetheless, Buchanan never married, and there is no concrete evidence to confirm or refute these rumors.🙆🏼♂️ TELL US IN THE COMMENTS your favorite moment BABES OR MAYBE WE MISSED SOME COOL THINGS!! 🙌 🙌SUPPORT THE SHOW, SUPPORT THE SPONSORS! 👉 https://zbiotics.com/pages/am-christories CODE: CHRISTORIES get 15% off your order! #ChrisDistefano #history #Podcast #comedy Welcome to Christories where comedian Chris Distefano tells you about a time in history.

Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested for the murder but was killed by nightclub owner Jack Ruby before he could stand trial. The event led to numerous conspiracy theories and remains a subject of extensive investigation and debate. Several conspiracy theories surround JFK's assassination. Some suggest multiple gunmen were involved, while others believe the CIA orchestrated the murder. Another theory claims the Mafia killed Kennedy in retaliation for his administration's crackdown on organized crime. There are also ideas that Soviet or Cuban agents were behind the assassination, and some propose that insiders within the U.S. government conspired against him.

The Pilgrims, who had settled in Plymouth, Massachusetts, and the Wampanoag shared a feast that included wild game, seafood, and crops like corn and squash. It was a symbol of cooperation and goodwill between the two groups, though the historical details are somewhat limited.

He was born in 100 BCE and rose to prominence through his military exploits and political maneuvering. In 49 BCE, he famously crossed the Rubicon River with his army, leading to a civil war and eventually his appointment as dictator. His rule marked a turning point in Roman history, as he implemented various reforms and policies. However, his growing power and popularity led to his assassination on the Ides of March in 44 BCE.

Apollo 13 was the seventh crewed mission in NASA's Apollo space program and was intended to be the third mission to land on the Moon. However, it is best known for its dramatic turn of events. Launched on April 11, 1970, the mission suffered an oxygen tank explosion two days later, forcing the crew to abort their lunar landing and focus on returning safely to Earth. Through ingenuity and teamwork, the astronauts, James Lovell, Jack Swigert, and Fred Haise, managed to overcome life-threatening challenges and safely splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on April 17, 1970.

The formation of the National Association of Base Ball Players in 1857 marked the first organized league, and professional baseball emerged with the Cincinnati Red Stockings in 1869. The establishment of the National League in 1876 solidified the sport's professional status.

The battle began with a surprise attack by the British on the American positions, which were poorly defended. The British were able to outflank the Americans and force them to retreat to their main fortifications on Brooklyn Heights. Despite heavy losses, the Americans were able to hold their position and repel several British assaults. The American defense collapsed, and the Continental Army was forced to retreat across the East River .. thank god there was some FOG!! Shout out George W for being a badass leader!

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedTHIS WEEK ON CHRISTORIES we're uncovering the TRUTH about your favorite Indian Rights Activist👉 Gandhi 🙌 Gandhi was born in Porbandar, India in 1869 and was raised being a devoted practitioner of Vaishnavism which promotes self discipline and non violence. Gandhi grew to be a lawyer and moved from India to South Africa to practice law. There he started stand up for Indian people's rights as there was a lot of discrimination. When he returned to India, he fought for India's independence from Britain. British rule in India was strong and unfair -- to the point they had a huge taxes on salt. SALT!? Gandhi protested this one ridiculous law with a non violent tactic -- marching to the sea to make his own salt, which we know as his famous Salt March. Gandhi promoted a lot of peaceful protest and even though he wasn't violent, he did get arrested for rallying so many people together!! He was a good person who inspired a lot of good, but also was known to do a few border line bad things with his nieces.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedThis week Chris is talking about the history of the Women's Suffrage Movement in the USA. Starting in the mid 1800s, America is growing but the Declaration of Independence still holds true to "All Men are created equal". Women came together for the first time in New York to discuss their rights and that was remembered as the Seneca Falls Convention. Enter the Women's Suffrage movement. Women's suffrage is the right of women to vote in elections. We have women like, Susan B Anthony, Sojourner Truth, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Alice Paul and Carrie Chapman Catt fighting for women's rights. SHOUT OUT National Woman Suffrage Association! They came together to fight for the 19th Amendment and thanks to the industrial revolution, prohibition and many protests, they got the right to vote in 1920!

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedThis week Chris is talking about an overlooked atrocity during the late 1930’s in China — the Nanjing Massacre. The Japanese had been fighting with the Chinese for years and during the Second Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese had every intention of taking over more land and claiming it as their own. After the Battle of Shanghai, the Japan thought that capturing the capital city of Nanjing, would make China surrender and they would win. China’s Nationalist leader Chiang Kai-Shek, was afraid to lose more of his men and told only them to evacuate the city of Nanking, leaving the citizens unable to defend themselves properly. A safety zone was created by a International committee and one of them was a Nazi.. yep that’s right a Nazi ! It was an unfortunate 6 week massacre Women were brutally raped and killed, children were thrown in the air for bayonet practice, men were buried alive. It was a very upsetting time.General Iwane Matsui who ordered this invasion was executed for their crimes and since then, Japan has tried to forget this horrible time. Listen to this horrible time but that the Japanese still had time to take some pictures?! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…
