Forty years ago after half a decade of undeniable success (The Big Chill, Body Heat, Empire Strikes Back, Raiders of the Lost Ark) four-time Oscar-nominated writer/directed Lawrence Kasdan cashed in that blank check to make his dream project....and old-fashioned Western. And to do so, he assembled an All-Star cast lead by Kevin Kline, Danny Glover, Kevin Costner, and Scott Glenn for this sprawling tale of corrupt sheriff's, reluctant heroes, land disputes, family vendettas, benevolent bar-matrons, small towns under siege, dangerous posses, and of course lots of shootouts. :) Sadly it got lost in the shuffle of a summer dominated by the likes of Back to the Future and Rambo but forty years later, this remains one of THE premiuer modern westerns. Also co-starring Brian Dennehy, Jeff Goldblum, Rosanna Arquette, and Linda Hunt AND featuring a rip-roaring score from Bruce Broughton (Tombstone), it's time to saddle up and head on out to.....SILVERADO!!!!Host & Editor: Geoff GershonEditor: Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
Send us a textWhen the world slowed during the pandemic, Steve Vannoy and I found an unexpected gift in that stillness. We began recording stories from his father, Smokey Vannoy—vivid tales of a bygone West Virginia filled with cinder-bottom towns, red-light districts, and river adventures. What started as a collection of oral history soon grew into something more—a shared book project, born from legacy and love.Adventures in Cinder Bottom became more than a family story. It turned into a vibrant retelling of time, place, and identity. In this episode of Authors Who Lead, as we reflect on our second book, Greenbrier River, we weren't just navigating the usual creative hurdles of fiction—we were also carrying the weight of loss. Smokey passed away during the writing process, and that grief wove itself into every chapter. What makes these stories resonate is that they're rooted in real people, real places, and a real desire to honor someone we both deeply admired.Timestamp:00:00 Smokey's stories and Cinder Bottom03:08 Greenbrier River: growth through stories08:54 Authentic storytelling for Appalachia11:37 Boom to bust: a county's journey13:32 Avoiding judgment in polarized times16:41 Early integration in segregated America19:34 Living stories: a father's legacy25:32 Believe in your story26:46 From starter to finisher29:18 Join Authors Who Lead podcastFull show notesCOMMUNITY PROGRAMS

In this thought-provoking episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we speak with Aaron Scott —author, ex-Wall Street hedge fund founder, and host of The Evolved Podcast. Together, we unpack how the modern world subtly programs us through systems like education, government, medicine, and media—and how to awaken within them without abandoning ourselves. Aaron shares the core framework from his upcoming book The Architecture of Awakening, revealing how aligning with your true self—rather than resisting the system—is the key to reclaiming autonomy and inner peace. We explore practical strategies to integrate spiritual truth, reframe failure, and recognize our interconnectedness in a world of illusions. About the Guest:Aaron Scott is a modern-day deconstructivist with a background on Wall Street and a heart centered on truth. He went from founding a hedge fund to leading an alternative therapeutics company. Now, his mission is to help people awaken to their true nature amidst societal programming. His upcoming book The Architecture of Awakening and The Evolved Podcast are powerful resources for navigating identity, consciousness, and collective evolution. Key Takeaways: Most modern systems shape our identities unconsciously; awakening starts with awareness. Real power comes not from rebelling but from integrating spiritual truth into daily life. Reframing failure as growth is essential to breaking free from indoctrination. We are not separate from others or the planet—diversity and connection are universal truths. Living in alignment with your natural flow allows the world to unfold in support of you.

Psalms 144:12Some days you just can't win. You feel distant from your kids when you want to be close and no matter how hard you try you fear you're only passing bad traits—instead of the good ones. Sometimes the lyrics of a song express accurately the attitudes of the heart better than anything else.

Ever wonder why social media posts about food, fashion, or travel get so much love, while the deep stuff barely gets a like? In this episode, Dr. Nicole and Dr. Nick get real about what's actually behind our scrolling habits, how moving to Italy flipped their perspective, and why living in alignment with your values—not someone else's Instagram highlight reel—is the real flex. They dig into the difference between “should” and “want,” how to turn envy into inspiration, and why it's time to stop waiting for “someday” to start living. #LiveYourValues #IntentionalLiving #SocialMediaTruth #FamilyLegacy #AuthenticLiving #ConsciousChoices #InspiredAction #ItalyLife #IntegrativeYou #MindfulScrolling 3 Key Takeaways: Social media is a mirror: What grabs your attention online is usually a reflection of what you crave or suppress in real life. Instead of feeling “less than,” use it as feedback to uncover what you truly want. Living in alignment beats living for the ‘gram: The most fulfilling choices come from knowing your own (and your family's) values—not copying someone else's journey or highlight reel. Don't wait for permission to live: Whether it's moving to Italy or just making time for joy, stop playing the “I can't because…” game. Anything is possible when you decide your desires are worth acting on. Quotes: “You can sit there and say, good for them, I wish I could do that—and further that scarcity—or you can say, I'm going to make that happen because anything is possible.” “If you think you can or you think you can't, either way, you're right.” Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube Apple Spotify 2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

Dave Mayers is a Pennsylvania native, where he cut his teeth bird hunting behind his friend's close working black labradors. He hunted ruffed grouse and wild pheasants in the PA hills before moving to Missouri in 1986. Dave also spent a couple of years in central Wisconsin. Since 1996, he has walked behind his own german short-haired pointers and has been fortunate enough to travel with them to several Midwestern and Western states, chasing pheasants, woodcock, bobwhite quail, ruffed grouse, and a few sharp tails. Dave retired as fisheries biologist with the Missouri Department of Conservation in 2014 and has had more time to devote to his dogs and see what awaits them over the next rise. Topics covered include: Living with bird dogs in the house Hunting the woodcock migration in the Ozarks Fish habitat overlapping with upland bird habitat The mysteries of the American Woodcock Trusting our dogs in the field Follow Dave: @seize_the_moment_outdoors Check out the First Gen Hunter Website Follow First Gen Hunter Instagram: @first.gen.hunter Facebook: @first.gen.hunter Follow Alex: @east2westhunts_alex Follow East2West Hunts: @east2westhunts Follow Caleb: @calebleedrake Follow Noel: @noelgandy Follow Ryan: @theuplandsocial Support First Gen Hunter by shopping at the following partners: East2West Hunts Use promo code: firstgen10 = 10% off any purchase Old Barn Taxidermy Tell Them The First Gen Hunter Podcast Sent You!

Living in a coastal town, Valerie loved warm weather, wildlife photography, and being in the water. Above all, she loved watching the sunrise over the ocean. Every morning, she woke up before dawn to catch a view of the water. Val estimated that despite cloudy weather or travel, she still managed to see more than 300 waterfront sunrises each year. She never tired of watching them. In her eyes, the sunrise held a glory she didn’t want to miss. In Exodus, we read about Moses’ radiant face, literally reflecting his glorious encounter with the Lord (Exodus 34). Paul said that since Jesus came, there is an even more glorious ministry than what Moses experienced (2 Corinthians 3:7). It is the ministry of the Spirit, which brings righteousness (v. 9). God’s plan of salvation has permanent glory, surpassing anything that came before (v. 10), and we get to participate in it. Paul said, “We all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into His image with ever-increasing glory” (v. 18). That ever-increasing glory is not dependent on how well we perform, but on the Holy Spirit. We, like the clouds at sunrise, just reflect a little more and a little better each day the glorious work that He is doing.

What matters most when we show up to worship?In “Relationships Matter to God,” we’re reminded that unresolved conflict—especially in our closest relationships—matters deeply to God. In fact, Jesus said we should press pause on worship if we know someone has something against us. Why? Because our hearts, our humility, and our willingness to seek reconciliation are acts of worship too. One woman shares how God softened her heart during years of marriage struggles, leading her from resentment to grace—and from pride to peace. Key Takeaways: God prioritizes reconciliation over religious ritual We can’t truly worship when bitterness is brewing Conflict often becomes destructive when left unprocessed Christ calls us to deal with our emotions before they harden into contempt Forgiveness is a gift we give to others and ourselves
Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com NO TDA over the 4th of July Weekend… But I will see you on Monday the 7th. When did it happen? You thought you were good at something and then realized you had so much more growth ahead of you. When you had more questions than answers. When you realized this is the secret sauce to mastering something. When you understood you should have done this a long time ago. When I was taking guitar my teacher Jeff Schroedl was amazing. He still is. His band Altered 5 is a blues band that has won numerous awards. Matthew 28:18Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, even to the end of the age. *Key point: Great leaders don't create followers, they create leaders. Great Disciples don't create followers of Christ, they create people who create followers of Christ. In these few simple verses we tend to focus in on Power and Authority, the Making of Disciples and even baptizing new converts and we even highlight that this is a command… but what do we miss. Well by logical conclusion one can determine that the key to all of these is Obedience. Five key reasons you need to learn discipleship: Obedience to Jesus' Command: Jesus directly instructed his followers to "Go and make disciples of all nations...". Learning discipleship is an act of obedience to this fundamental command, demonstrating our willingness to follow his instructions. This obedience is a way of expressing our love for him… Obedience is greater than sacrifice - thats what scripture says. Without obedience you are just like a non Christian except you will go to heaven… You will be judged for your disobedience and your lack of following through on his commands. Spiritual Growth and Maturity: Discipleship is crucial for ongoing spiritual development. It's not about reaching a point of "knowing enough" but about continuously growing in Christ. It fosters a deeper understanding of biblical truths, the application of faith in daily life, and the development of Christ-like character. You ask anyone who moved from student into the role of a teacher and ask them which was more challenging, which taught them more… without a doubt it is being a teacher. When you disciple someone that is when you really start to grow and mature in Christ. Building Stronger Relationships: Discipleship creates opportunities to build deep, authentic relationships with other believers. These relationships provide a supportive environment for mutual encouragement, accountability, and the sharing of life experiences. This strengthens the Christian community and fosters a sense of belonging. People who go through war together have an unbreakable bond. Discipleship is many times war… spiritual warfare, but war none the less. Equipping and Empowering Others: Discipleship is a process of intentional mentorship where experienced believers guide and nurture newer ones in their spiritual journey. This empowers individuals to live out their faith authentically and to make a positive impact in the world around them. It also plays a vital role in carrying the gospel to others, even in least-reached communities. Living a Life Reflecting Christ: Discipleship involves imitating Jesus' example in our lives. This means not just hearing his teachings but also living them out through love, service, and sacrifice. It's a lifelong endeavor to become more like him in character and actions. This process includes cultivating a heart of love for God and others, actively serving those in need, and sharing the gospel with those who haven't heard.
