What if the most magical crystal in your collection… is the one you've been ignoring?This week we're joined by crystal scholar, museum specialist, and magical science nerd Nicholas Pearson, author of The Witching Stones. Nicholas shares how he accidentally went from music major to museum earth-science expert, and how that twisty path led him to become one of today's leading voices in crystal magic.We explore the place where science and spirituality don't just coexist, they amplify each other. And how treating magic like data collection can make your practice more intuitive and more accurate.Nicholas then takes us into the mind-bending world of flint, the “ordinary” stone that literally changed human evolution, birthed early ritual, and forms in liminal spaces beneath the earth. He also reveals the real history of moonstone, the Roman obsession with jet, and the discovery of a Neolithic emerald crown. His take on emerald as a stone of radical self-worth and world-shifting love is one of the most powerful crystal teachings we've ever heard.Whether you're crystal-curious or crystal-obsessed, this episode will completely change how you relate to the mineral kingdom, and why the simplest stones often hold the most magic.Nicholas' book The Witching Stones is out now, and you can find Nicholas at @theluminouspearl or theluminouspearl.com.

Dr. Allison Kendall is back on the podcast, and she brings with her a fascinating deep dive into a completely new approach to treating feline idiopathic cystitis (FIC). Yes—you read that right. Radiation therapy, traditionally reserved for oncology patients, is now being explored as a potential tool for one of the most frustrating and painful conditions our feline friends face. Dr. Kendall walks us through the rationale, the early clinical findings, and why this modality might just shift our entire perspective on chronic lower urinary tract disease in cats. It's innovative, surprising, and exactly the kind of boundary-pushing veterinary medicine we love to highlight. From there, we pivot smoothly (or as smoothly as you can pivot when discussing irritated bladders) into another urinary challenge: difficult stones. Dr. Kendall unpacks the diagnostic traps, the surgical dilemmas, and the metabolic mysteries behind those stubborn uroliths that refuse to behave. Expect practical tips, thoughtful insights, and a few “aha” moments that will make you rethink your approach to these cases in practice. Another great conversation with one of our favorite guests: equal parts science, clinical pearls, and inspiration for anyone who has ever managed a blocked cat at 3 a.m.Thanks for tuning in to the Purr Podcast with Dr. Susan and Dr. Jolle!If you enjoyed today's episode, don't forget to subscribe, rate, and leave us a review—it really helps other cat lovers and vet nerds find the show.

Advent E2 — In the second week of Advent, we're reflecting on peace. The word most often translated as “peace” in the Hebrew Bible is shalom, but its meaning goes far beyond the absence of conflict. Shalom is about wholeness, completeness, and everything being as it should be. It describes uncut stones at an altar, honest weights in the marketplace, integrity of the heart, flourishing relationships, and life lived in harmony with God's purposes. In this episode, Jon and Tim trace the deep biblical meaning of peace and show how Advent points to the arrival of Jesus, the Prince of Peace, who reconciles divided people and makes them one.FULL SHOW NOTESFor chapter-by-chapter notes including summaries, referenced Scriptures, biblical words, and reflection questions, check out the full show notes for this episode.CHAPTERSShalom in Stones, Weights, and Hearts—and Also Fulfillment (00:00–15:15)Shalom as Well-Being and the Prince of Shalom  (15:15–29:21)Jesus, Our Peace (29:21–35:38)Reflections on Peace With Allison (35:38-39:42)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.REFERENCED RESOURCESShalom / Peace: Though not referenced directly in the episode, this 2017 video explores the same biblical word, shalom.Check out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books here.SHOW MUSIC“Silver N Gold” by  Lofi Sunday & Yoni Charis“Snow Fall” by Lofi Sunday & TBabz “Snowflakes” by AvesBibleProject theme song by TENTS SHOW CREDITSProduction of today's episode is by Lindsey Ponder, producer, and Cooper Peltz, managing producer.

UK Subs formed in 1976 when Charlie Harper was 32. They've had over 80 members, some of whom he can't remember. They never split up and are touring in 2026 to celebrate his 82nd birthday. “I vowed I'd keep playing as long at the Stones - which I'm now starting to regret!” After 50 years on the punk frontline, he's the first to see the humour in going deaf and “having to have the occasional sit-down”. This fond and honest conversation looks back at … … seeing the Stones at Ken Colyers' jazz club and drinking with them in the Porcupine … making £4 a day – “a fortune” – playing tube stations in 1964: “ex-buskers never get stagefright” … “dreadlocks, Afros, convoy cuts” – confessions of a teenage hairdresser … what he learnt from Joe Strummer and the 101-ers … his punk epiphany: seeing the Damned at the Roxy in 1976 … playing France's Hellfest to 30,000 people and why the spirit of ‘77 still burns on the West Coast … famous fans: Guns N'Roses, Hanoi Rocks, Dinosaur Jnr … the UK Subs' run-in with US Immigration … skiffle, Jesse Fuller, Woody Guthrie, Big Bill Broonzy, Donovan and mid-‘70s R&B …the onstage rigours of getting old: “I don't get adrenaline anymore and have to have the occasional sit-down!” … Where Did I Leave My Glasses? Why Did I Come Upstairs? – our fantasy tracks for the senior citizen!

The Sacsayhuamán stones sit above Cusco like a quiet dare—massive, irregular blocks weighing tens to over a hundred tons, locked together with unnerving precision and no mortar. Their tight seams, strange angles, and earthquake-proof design make the whole site feel less like a ruin and more like a message from a civilization that knew exactly what it was doing. Even now, no one can fully explain how the Incas shaped and moved stones this huge. Sacsayhuamán remains one of the most enigmatic constructions on the planet—an ancient feat that refuses to give up its secrets.-----------------Head to the Strange Places home website, asylum817.com to keep up with all things Strange Places, as well as the host.

Esperanza and Irwin return to their sweet spot: the 1970's. 50 years ago, in the Spring of 1975, the Rolling Stones were arguably the biggest rock band in the world; some would say they still are. But facing a variety of tax problems in the UK, the Stones recorded throughout Europe, in addition to LA. But there was a special lure to Montauk in 1975, where the locals gave them their space. The heart of this podcast is the Stones, but the star is Montauk, including the Shagwong, Eothen, Deep Hollow Ranch, and yes, the Memory Motel.

Jesus invites us to lay down the stones of judgment and self-condemnation so His mercy can heal us, free us, and empower us to live a life that truly honors God.

It only took 29 years, but we Beatles fans finally have what we've all been clamoring for: instrumental “Fool On The Hill.” That's right, Anthology 4 has arrived! Are you excited? We fans love sequels! Maybe it's an appetizer to George Harrison's “Early Takes Volume 2”, which is tentatively scheduled to be released sometime after we're all dead. Fortunately, for those of us who remember the excitement for the original Anthology CD's, the good folks at Apple have finally cleaned up the tracks from volumes 1-3. This week, Tony & T.J. instant-react to those reissues (and/or maybe remixes), in addition to previewing their full-on deep dish of Anthology 4. Along the way, the boys ask:

David Fisher was a writer who made a distinct mark on Doctor Who during the late 1970s and early 1980s, contributing a run of stories for the Tom Baker era that blended gothic atmosphere, humour, and great characters.  His scripts include The Stones of Blood, The Androids of Tara, The Creature from the Pit, and The Leisure Hive. Four very different adventures that together showcase just how adaptable his writing was within the series. Fisher also played a role in the origins of one of Doctor Who's most beloved classics, although personal circumstances prevented him from completing his script. His story, The Gamble With Time formed the backbone of what became City of Death, later finished by Douglas Adams and Graham Williams under the pseudonym “David Agnew.” Tonight, we look at David Fisher, the stories he delivered across several seasons, and what makes each stand out. We explore his style, strengths, and quirks that define his work and why his episodes remain fondly remembered decades later. Before then, all the usual news and short topics you've come to expect and, after the David Fisher segment, we have listener feedback and what we've been watching this past month.

This Week on Dopey! Our annual Thanksgiving episode opens with a Dopey holiday song and gratitude messages from the Dopey Nation. We remember the brilliant Jimmy Cliff and play a few tunes. We read Billy Strings reviews and talk shit about AI! PLUS DOPEY NATION GRATITUDE before introducing guest Charlotte McKinney.Charlotte joins at around 45 days sober. She talks about early sobriety, feeling scared to fully commit, and using comedy as her “secret life.” She opens up about her old weed habit, quitting cold turkey, partying with boyfriends, and chasing drugs through different phases of her life. She shares some of her craziest stories — including taking LSD and going to family dinners and spending holidays totally high. She and Dave talk recovery, meetings, codependency, boundaries, and finding sober community. They end with Dave's rapid-fire game (mushrooms vs acid, Beatles vs Stones, heroin vs meth, etc.).Next, Steve Poltz drops in with a story about the late Todd Snider. He describes getting hotboxed backstage with Todd and Evan Dando at the Ryman, being blasted on secondhand smoke, and going onstage dazed. He recalls Todd's health decline, his death, and their long friendship.All that and more on this brand spanking new - post Billy Strings episode of that good old Dopey Show!  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Retreating into Fear and Ego, I Block the Flow of Infinity; Can You Open Yourself to the Stream of CreativityThis class, the first in a series on the discourse V'shavti B'sholom, published in Torah Or Vayeitze, said by the Alter Rebbe on Shabbos Parshas Vayeitzei, 11 Kislev, 5568 (1807), was presented by Rabbi YY Jacobson on Thursday, 7 Kislev, 5786, November 27, 2025, Parshas Vayetzei, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY.View Source Sheets: https://portal.theyeshiva.net/api/source-sheets/9816

Mike Pesca is joined by CNN anchor and author Abby Phillip to discuss her new book, A Dream Deferred: Jesse Jackson and the Fight for Black Political Power. They explore Jackson's soaring, sermon-like rhetorical style and the hubris of the "tree shaker, not a jelly maker" philosophy. The conversation traces how Jackson's push to change delegate rules made the path possible for Barack Obama, even as the Obama campaign intentionally created contrast with Jackson's image. We dive into Jackson's unique brand of populism—more Bernie Sanders than Obama—and his surprising, Trumpian anti-globalist instincts regarding Japan and Germany. Plus, we discuss how his rhetorical style, while rousing, could also be exhausting, and why the most heartbreaking part of the world's chaos is the people who are okay with it.

In this week's shiur on Parshas Vayeitzei, we explore the mysterious episode of the twelve stones under Yaakov Avinu's head—each one declaring, “עָלַי יָנִיחַ צַדִּיק את רֹאשׁוֹ” (“Let the tzaddik rest his head on me!”).What does this teach you about your own spiritual identity?We also dive into the classic parable of the stonecutter who wanted to become everything—a merchant, a king, the sun, the wind—only to end up again as a stonecutter and realize the strength he had all along.Together, these two stories reveal a powerful message: 

In this powerful conversation, Natalie Born sits down with speaker, advocate, and compassion-driven leader Brenda Chand to explore what it really means to see people through the eyes of hope—not judgment. Brenda shares her personal story of growing up in a difficult environment, how those early experiences shaped her desire to champion others, and why leaders must resist the cultural pull toward criticism and comparison. From the power of presence, to loving people in their mess, to cultivating spaces where grace leads the way, Brenda offers deeply practical and spiritually grounded wisdom. If you've ever struggled with self-worth, dealt with hidden pain, or felt the weight of others' expectations, this episode reminds you that freedom begins with being seen—and seeing others—with compassion. [00:00 – 05:00] Brenda's Early Story & Hidden Pain * Brenda shares childhood memories that shaped her understanding of shame, secrecy, and survival. * How growing up in a home marked by instability taught her to recognize pain in others. * Why empathy begins with acknowledging our own broken places. [05:01 – 10:00] The Moment Everything Shifted * Brenda reflects on the internal questions that followed her into adulthood. * Realizing that her story wasn't a source of shame—but a source of ministry. * How God used her past to ignite a calling to help others experience hope. [10:01 – 14:30] Casting Hope, Not Stones * What it means to “cast hope” in a world that's quick to criticize. * Practical ways leaders can respond with compassion instead of judgment. * Why withholding criticism isn't weakness—it's strength rooted in purpose. [14:31 – 20:00] The Power of Being Seen * Brenda explains why many people don't need solutions—they need presence. * How leaders can create environments where people feel safe to show their real story. * Natalie and Brenda discuss the spiritual discipline of seeing people the way God does. [20:01 – 25:00] Loving People Through Their Mess * Why people often behave from places of unspoken pain. * The importance of curiosity over assumptions. * How to walk with someone through transformation without carrying the weight for them. [25:01 – End] Hope as a Leadership Strategy * How compassion fuels influence, loyalty, and authentic connection. * Questions leaders can ask to remain grounded in grace and truth. * Brenda's encouragement to anyone wrestling with identity, shame, or purpose. Quotes: “When we lead with compassion, we create space for people to breathe, heal, and belong.” – Brenda Chand 
“Hope is an invitation. Judgment is a barrier. Leaders get to choose which one they build.” – Brenda Chand

Send us a textIf you've been following this series of modern day musicians, you may remember a concert I mentioned with the Rolling Stones. It is true that the Stones were able to hold the audience and follow their hands, so to speak. But even before Mick Jagger strut out on stage, the opening act was Stevie Wonder = a living definition of a hard act to follow. If I had just seen his opening act, I could've left knowing that I had seen a great show = but I admit I would've definitely been disappointed at missing the Stones.  But there was no question that Stevie Wonder had prepared the crowd for the excitement of Mick JaggerToday,ΩåΩ I would like to talk about an artist who can fill a stadium with joy using one riff, one chord change, and one impossibly confident note on a harmonica.That same Stevie Wonder.Composer, singer, producer, multi-instrumentalist, activist.A child prodigy who did not burn out.A hitmaker who refused to choose between romantic love songs and songs that tell hard truths.A blind musician whose music often seems to see the world more clearly than many of us who use our eyes.   In this episode, I'd like to walk through his background,the forces that shaped him,the run of hits that re-wired popular music,his effects on other artists,and how his blindness is not a side note, but part of how he developed an uncanny vision for sound, people, and justice.Support the showThank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

In this sermon we look at Colossians 3 and talk about the ability our words have to bring life to others.For more teaching, visit citizenscharlotte.com/teaching

Crystals are displayed prominently at virtually every witchcraft and metaphysical store; however, a comprehensive guide to their use in magic has been a missing element. Nicholas Pearson helps to remedy this with The Witching Stones, examining crystals, gems, and humble stones with the most ancient and powerful connections to magic. These magical stones number fourteen in all: flint, hagstone, ammonite, fossil urchin, salt, lodestone, lead, toadstone, amber, jet, cross-stone, quartz, moonstone, and emerald. Pearson explores the historical usage of these stones, as well as why they are associated with witchcraft, but also offers practical and accessible uses for the modern practitioner in the form of spells and rituals. He describes more than fifty spells, rituals, and recipes, from the basics of cleansing and consecrating your stones, to more advanced techniques like crafting lead curse tablets, blending incense and oils, and working lunar magic with moonstones.The Witching Stones focuses on the geology, history, and practical use of crystals and stones in magic. This book is an excellent how-to guide to the magical use of stones and crystals, suitable for beginners who don't know what to “do” with crystals, as well as for the experienced crystal lover who seeks to take their practice to the next level. While many spell books feature the use of crystals within them, this is the first book to dive deep into the topic, exploring the mineral kingdom in the context of alchemy, talismanic magic, and Luciferian witchcraft.Find The Witching Stones and Nicholas:Book: https://theluminouspearl.com/books/the-witching-stones/Website: www.theluminouspearl.comInstagram: www.instagram.com/theluminouspearlAdditional Links: www.linktr.ee/theluminouspearl Nicholas Pearson has been immersed in all aspects of the mineral kingdom for nearly thirty years.

He is a regular on the metaphysical circuit, frequently teaching and making appearances on podcasts and doing interviews.

The Alan Cox Show

Today we bring you a show taped live at the CURE 2025 National Clergy Summit in Washington, D.C., at the iconic Willard Hotel—where history meets destiny just two blocks from the White House.   The voice you're about to hear belongs to the Honorable Janice Rogers Brown, a judicial titan who rose from segregated Alabama to the California Supreme Court and then to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, confirmed in a 56–43 Senate showdown that still echoes in conservative lore. She retired in 2017 as one of the sharpest originalist minds of her era, a Bradley Prize laureate, and the author of the explosive 2024 essay *"Bread and Stones,"* which declares the Supreme Court's 1873 *Slaughter-House* decision turned the 14th Amendment's promise of liberty into a stone of oppression for Black Americans and every citizen since.   But forget the résumé—this is no dusty lecture. Judge Brown steps to the Willard podium and delivers a sermon that feels like a lightning strike. She opens with a kindergarten story about a boy who draws God in ten minutes, then pivots to a chilling diagnosis: America has fallen from "city on a hill" to a meteorite streaking into the abyss, its light fading in a culture drunk on power and contemptuous of the Creator who once defined our equality. She quotes Ken Burns calling the American Founding the second greatest event in human history, then sharpens the blade: it only matters because the Founders tethered equality to God, not human whim. Calvin Coolidge's 1926 warning rings through her words—"If all men are created equal, that is final"—and anyone who denies it is marching backward into tyranny.   She resurrectes the "black regiment" of colonial preachers whose pulpits birthed the Revolution, then warns today's clergy: you are the last line before Canadian-style arrests for preaching biblical sexuality. California already fines citizens $250,000 for refusing to call a man "she," and the First Amendment's right to silence is dead under SOGI laws. Congress flipped from defending marriage in 1996 to codifying *Obergefell* in 2022, proving we are not the people who sustained liberty for 250 years. On campuses, students chant "Don't tell me facts!" and declare objective truth a Euro-West weapon to silence the oppressed—Isaiah's lament that "truth has fallen in the streets" has never felt more urgent.   Yet rebellion, she insists, isn't ignorance; it's defiance. We know right from wrong because it's written on our hearts. The rainbow flag isn't about tolerance—it's about forcing celebration to quiet guilty consciences. She closes with Martin Luther King's dream, updated for our moment: dissatisfied until no one shouts white power, black power, or trans power, but God's power and human power. "We've messed this up so badly no human can fix it," she says, voice steady with hope, "but that ain't all we got."   If you're a pastor, parent, or patriot who still believes America's founding was a spiritual revolution worth fighting for, this is your battle cry. Judge Brown doesn't just diagnose the darkness—she hands you the torch. Sit down, press play, and bring the salt. The culture's tomatoes are already flying.

In this Bible Story, Paul is nearly stoned to death by Jewish Christians who seek to control Gentiles by the law. They are dangerous and controlling. Yet Paul does not let the stones stop him. This story is inspired by Acts 14. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is Acts 14:19 from the King James Version.Episode 229: As Paul and Barnabas entered Iconium to preach, both Jews and Gentiles were receptive and restored by the message of love and mercy in Jesus that they brought. But not everyone in the city was happy about this change. Certain men of influence added poison to these teachings and stirred the people against Paul and Barnabas. So they fled to Lystra where they healed a man and were called gods by the men of the city. Just as Paul and Barnabas convinced the crowd that they were mere men, the elders of Antioch came and captured Paul, bringing him out to the city to be stoned. But because of what God did for him, Paul went right back to the city the next day to continue preaching the good news of Jesus.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.
