32 Days Until I Hear Again: Surgery Is Set

The countdown is on. My cochlear implant surgery is officially booked for December 15, and in this episode I'm telling you everything. I cover how I got here, what goes down on surgery day, and the long road to activation day, when the implant gets switched on for the first time. I'm keeping it real about the nerves, the what-ifs, and the hope of finally hearing the voices I've been missing. I also talk about how I'm getting ready and where the Nicky Hears series goes from here. Got a hearing loss story, a cochlear implant experience, or a question for my care team? Send it my way. You might hear it on a future episode. Follow Nicky World so you don't miss the next chapter. New episodes every week.

In this raw, no-filter episode of Nicky’s World, Nicky (a Gen Xer) dismantles the claim that “woke” is making a comeback after the midterms. Drawing on a lifetime of Cold War drills, Gulf Wars, the Clinton years, 9/11, and a pre-internet childhood where you said it to someone’s face or didn’t say it at all, Nicky argues that Gen X is the ultimate woke repellent. Actions speak louder than pronouns, safe spaces, and social-media tough talk — and this generation isn’t buying the revival narrative. Nicky also drops two major personal announcements: an official declaration of candidacy for Plainville, Connecticut town council in 2027, and a cochlear implant update (MRI completed, results expected Monday, with hopes for surgery before Christmas so hearing returns in the right ear next year). Expect straight talk, zero pandering, and the usual Gen X energy. If you’re tired of performative politics and want real-world perspective, this one’s for you.   Support my affiliates Podbean affiliate: https://www.podbean.com/NCPB Minds Referral: https://www.minds.com/?referrer=Shianp Minds + Referral: https://www.minds.com/plus?referrer=Shianp Byrna Referral: http://rwrd.io/nhin6yf?c Better Tan Swimwear: https://bettertanswim.com?sca_ref=9724298.i2W8HEZrg9 Advertise on Podbean: https://sponsorship.podbean.com/NCPB NorthShore referral: https://www.northshorecare.com/referral-landing-page?referral-code=NSRP-VAOD-IBQQ Robinhood offer: https://join.robinhood.com/nickc1474 Shop MyID: https://lddy.no/1frus eBay Deals: https://t.ly/oBfE Protonmail: https://go.getproton.me/SH1OU Bentbox : http://bentbox.co/cover?referralCode=4cfj0i0F Coinbase Invite: https://coinbase.com/join/2TZKD54?src=referral-link My Patriot Supply: https://www.rzmaf8trk.com/2LZP2GW/2CTPL/?uid=27   Podcast show chat channel Telegram show channel: https://t.me/nickysworldshow   My Modeling sites Fansly: https://fansly.com/IntersexNicky OnlyFans: https://onlyfans.com/beyondbinaryart

Nicky’s back from vacation (and a nasty bout of bronchitis) with a raspy voice and a lot on her mind. She unloads on the men calling for repeal of the 19th Amendment after the Lindsey Clancy case, calls out the near-total media silence when white college women were beaten in York, Pennsylvania, and explains why she carries a Byrna LE in a blue state. Also in this episode: work and MSW updates, the double standard DSD tomboys face posting the same artistic nudes women post without labels, canceled nude camping plans, modeling on OnlyFans/Fansly/Fine Art America, the upcoming election as common sense vs. communism, Dan Bongino’s 10-10-10 rule, and a reminder to actually take your damn vacation days before you burn out.

In this episode of Nicky World, Nicky breaks down the harsh reality of gun rights in Connecticut and other blue states. From restrictive carry laws that turn law-abiding citizens into potential criminals, to the absurd treatment of less-lethal options like the Byrna LE as if they were firearms, Nicky explains why Democrats and progressives would rather see you defenseless than allow you to protect yourself. She covers the post-Bruin landscape, upcoming Supreme Court challenges, the difference between federal ATF classifications and Connecticut’s overreach, the double standard of coddling criminals while punishing self-defense, and why gun laws should be regulated at the federal level the same way commercial driver’s licenses are. Nicky also shares her personal experience carrying less-lethal on state property and why she believes blue-state politicians prefer victims over victors. Raw, unfiltered, and straight from a Connecticut resident who’s living under these laws every day.   Support my affiliates Podbean affiliate: https://www.podbean.com/NCPB Minds Referral: https://www.minds.com/?referrer=Shianp Minds + Referral: https://www.minds.com/plus?referrer=Shianp Byrna Referral: http://rwrd.io/nhin6yf?c Better Tan Swimwear: https://bettertanswim.com?sca_ref=9724298.i2W8HEZrg9 Advertise on Podbean: https://sponsorship.podbean.com/NCPB NorthShore referral: https://www.northshorecare.com/referral-landing-page?referral-code=NSRP-VAOD-IBQQ Robinhood offer: https://join.robinhood.com/nickc1474 Shop MyID: https://lddy.no/1frus eBay Deals: https://t.ly/oBfE Protonmail : https://go.getproton.me/SH1OU Bentbox : http://bentbox.co/cover?referralCode=4cfj0i0F Coinbase Invite: https://coinbase.com/join/2TZKD54?src=referral-link My Patriot Supply: https://www.rzmaf8trk.com/2LZP2GW/2CTPL/?uid=27 Podcast show chat channel Telegram show channel: https://t.me/nickysworldshow My Modeling sites Fansly: https://fansly.com/IntersexNicky OnlyFans: https://onlyfans.com/beyondbinaryart

In this episode of Nicky World, Nicky examines the July 30, 2026, sidewalk assault in Charlotte’s Dilworth/South End area (East Boulevard) involving Di-Quan Schafar Hunt (also referred to as Dequan or Diquan Hunt). Hunt, who has a lengthy record of arrests in Mecklenburg County—including multiple assaults, domestic-violence-related charges, weapons offenses, and other cases—allegedly punched a woman walking on the sidewalk, knocked her down, stood over her while she was injured, and recorded/posted the incident (and at least one other confrontation with a woman) on social media. He was arrested on August 6, 2026, and faces an assault-with-a-deadly-weapon charge. Nicky argues that this case exemplifies deeper failures in the criminal justice system: progressive policies, soft-on-crime approaches by some judges and prosecutors, repeated releases (including time-served dispositions on prior cases), and the resulting low public trust. She contrasts media and institutional responses based on the races of the parties involved, criticizes the courts more than the police or sheriff, and stresses personal responsibility for self-defense. She advocates carrying less-lethal tools (such as Byrna launchers) as a practical bare minimum and firearms where legally and practically feasible, while noting the broader consequences of voting for policies and officials that prioritize other goals over incapacitation of repeat violent offenders. The episode ties the incident to wider distrust of courts, law enforcement, and the system, and calls for stronger accountability, habitual-offender treatment, and individual preparedness.   Source: North Carolina Career criminal attacks women. https://nypost.com/2026/08/07/us-news/north-carolina-career-criminal-di-quan-hunt-arrested-after-attacking-chasing-women-in-terrifying-social-media-videos/ CMPD Arrest career criminal for attacking women on Social media. https://www.wcnc.com/article/news/crime/cmpd-arrests-man-for-assaulting-woman/275-c2e1f0ba-fa12-4423-a560-c4241112eb8a Career criminal had 14 priors to his arrest. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/08/man-14-prior-arrests-taken-custody-after-livestreaming/ Career criminal thug attacks women. https://thepostmillennial.com/black-man-films-brutal-attacks-on-white-women-while-shouting-racial-slurs-in-charlotte   Support my affiliates Podbean affiliate: https://www.podbean.com/NCPB Minds Referral: https://www.minds.com/?referrer=Shianp Minds + Referral: https://www.minds.com/plus?referrer=Shianp Byrna Referral: http://rwrd.io/nhin6yf?c Better Tan Swimwear: https://bettertanswim.com?sca_ref=9724298.i2W8HEZrg9 Advertise on Podbean: https://sponsorship.podbean.com/NCPB NorthShore referral: https://www.northshorecare.com/referral-landing-page?referral-code=NSRP-VAOD-IBQQ Robinhood offer: https://join.robinhood.com/nickc1474 Shop MyID: https://lddy.no/1frus eBay Deals: https://t.ly/oBfE Protonmail : https://go.getproton.me/SH1OU Bentbox : http://bentbox.co/cover?referralCode=4cfj0i0F Coinbase Invite: https://coinbase.com/join/2TZKD54?src=referral-link My Patriot Supply: https://www.rzmaf8trk.com/2LZP2GW/2CTPL/?uid=27   Podcast show chat channel Telegram show channel: https://t.me/nickysworldshow   My Modeling sites Fansly: https://fansly.com/IntersexNicky OnlyFans: https://onlyfans.com/beyondbinaryart

In this episode of Nicky’s World, host Nicky digs into the recent news that MySpace is planning a comeback. The platform’s current owners, brothers Chris and Tim Vanderhook, confirmed in a new documentary that they intend to relaunch the once-dominant early-2000s social network, saying they’re simply “waiting for the right time.” Nicky, who had her own MySpace page back in 2003, talks about the nostalgia many people feel for that era — Top 8 friends, profile songs, customizable pages, HTML coding, and a freer, less toxic online culture. She contrasts those days with today’s social media landscape, where saying the wrong thing can get you harassed, doxxed, deplatformed, or canceled, and shares her own experience of being removed from Facebook. She also looks at the competition MySpace would face from platforms like MeWe and Minds, and argues that more choices are a good thing in a free market. Will a return to chronological feeds and personal expression fill a real need in 2026, or is the moment gone? Straight talk on what social media used to feel like, what’s broken now, and whether bringing the old school back is even possible.   Source: Confirms the relaunch plans and notes growing frustration with algorithm-driven platforms. https://thepostmillennial.com/myspace-owners-vow-to-revive-millennial-social-media-platform Could Myspace come back?

In this episode of Nicky World we examine recent, documented cases of non-citizens ending up on voter rolls and casting ballots. We cover the New Jersey Motor Vehicle software failure that registered roughly 6,600 non-citizens (about 400 of whom voted), federal charges against non-citizens who voted in New Jersey elections, Bridgeport election irregularities, and the emerging case of Melissa Esperanza Ramirez — the woman charged in the July 13 crash that killed Bridgeport Officer Cooper Whiteside and his girlfriend.  We look at how motor-voter systems and self-attestation create openings, why the SAVE Act’s documentary proof-of-citizenship requirement targets the real vulnerability, and why RFK Jr.’s proposal for free U.S. passport cards offers a practical way to require strong ID and citizenship verification without locking out legitimate American citizens. Citizenship is already the law. Enforcement and access can coexist.   Sources & Links New Jersey software error and ~6,600 non-citizen registrations / ~400 votes:  https://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/21/nyregion/noncitizen-voting-new-jersey-error.html  https://newjerseyglobe.com/governor/new-jersey-admits-6600-non-citizens-were-on-new-jersey-voter-rolls-after-motor-vehicles-software-error/   Federal charges against non-citizens for illegal voting in New Jersey:  https://www.justice.gov/usao-nj/pr/multiple-aliens-charged-illegally-voting-federal-elections-and-making-false-statements  https://apnews.com/article/election-new-jersey-voter-fraud-charges-ab1bfbc64be135d66a1908be5e6d3ede   Melissa Esperanza Ramirez case and reported voter records:  Reporting from The Connecticut Centinal and Blue Lives Matter (July 2026) based on Connecticut Voter Registration System data, matching DOB, and address history.

What happens when a diagnosis that once ended a military career becomes a manageable medical condition decades later? In this deeply personal episode, I share my journey living with Kallmann syndrome—from being denied military service in the 1990s due to lifelong testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) to examining how today's military policies have evolved. We explore the history of TRT, changing medical standards, and the contradictions that still exist when it comes to endocrine disorders and military readiness. Along the way, I reflect on resilience, identity, and what progress really looks like for people living with lifelong hormonal conditions. Whether you're interested in men's health, military policy, hormone replacement therapy, or the lived experience of rare conditions like Kallmann syndrome, this episode offers both personal insight and a broader discussion about medicine, fairness, and change.   Source: Pentagon's Testosterone hypocrisy. https://taskandpurpose.com/news/military-testosterone-screening-2026/ Trump was right all along. https://www.whitehouse.gov/election-integrity/ Maine, WTF is wrong with you. https://www.breitbart.com/midterm-election/2026/07/17/watch-transgender-democrat-hoping-to-replace-maines-graham-platner-i-dont-want-to-hurt-anybody-i-just-wanna-use-the-bathroom/   Support my affiliates Podbean affiliate: https://www.podbean.com/NCPB Minds Referral: https://www.minds.com/?referrer=Shianp Minds + Referral: https://www.minds.com/plus?referrer=Shianp Byrna Referral: http://rwrd.io/nhin6yf?c Advertise on Podbean: https://sponsorship.podbean.com/NCPB NorthShore referral: https://www.northshorecare.com/referral-landing-page?referral-code=NSRP-VAOD-IBQQ Robinhood offer: https://join.robinhood.com/nickc1474 Shop MyID: https://lddy.no/1frus eBay Deals: https://t.ly/oBfE Protonmail : https://go.getproton.me/SH1OU Bentbox : http://bentbox.co/cover?referralCode=4cfj0i0F Coinbase Invite: https://coinbase.com/join/2TZKD54?src=referral-link My Patriot Supply: https://www.rzmaf8trk.com/2LZP2GW/2CTPL/?uid=27   Podcast show chat channel Telegram show channel: https://t.me/nickysworldshow   My Modeling sites Fansly: https://fansly.com/IntersexNicky OnlyFans: https://onlyfans.com/beyondbinaryart
