Send us a text by clicking this link!What if the hardest part of grief isn't the loss itself, but how the living watch you handle it? We dive straight into a thorny question: is there a “right” time to remarry after a spouse dies, especially when children are still grieving and the internet is watching? We don't hand out rules; we wrestle with the difference between what's allowed, what's wise, and what's respectful when private sorrow meets public platforms.That candor opens into a bigger reflection on how people instinctively talk to their dead and what that says about prayer, memory, and the communion of saints. We explore why Marian devotion feels so natural, how a mother uniquely suffers with her children, and why many Catholics bristled at a recent Vatican document discouraging titles like Co-Redemptrix. The theology is one thing; the message it sends to the faithful is another. We try to hold both—truth and tenderness—without dumbing anything down.To ground today's heat, we turn to Genesis. Younger over older, betrayal and reunion, Judah and Joseph—those messy family stories echo through salvation history, from Adam and Christ to Eve and Mary. We connect those patterns to modern culture wars, fear-based politics, and the outrage economy. Why did a tame interview spark a wildfire? What happens when panic and censorship drive people into echo chambers? Meanwhile, real pressures—debt, housing, wages, family breakdown—grind on in the background. Our aim is clarity: honor grief without spectacle, love Mary without apology, value nation without idolatry, and keep your eyes on what actually shapes lives.If this conversation challenged you or gave you language for something you've felt, share it with a friend, subscribe for more, and leave a review so others can find the show.

What happens when you walk across America with nothing but a backpack, a mandolin, and a sign that says, “Walking to Listen”? Host Julie Rose sits down with author and restorative practices consultant Andrew Forsthoefel to explore the power of vulnerability, the discomfort of rejection, and the surprising beauty of human connection. Andrew shares stories from his 4,000-mile journey — from receiving a knife and a warning not to trust anyone, to being invited into a forest camp by strangers offering cookies and apple juice. He reflects on how discomfort can be a gateway to growth, and how listening can be a radical act of love. Andrew now works with public schools to lead restorative listening circles, helping students and educators build trust, navigate conflict, and foster belonging through vulnerability.

Episode 109. What does it take to skateboard across an entire country, and become the first woman in history to do it? In this episode, I sit down with Brooke Johnson, the trailblazer who skated from coast to coast across America to raise awareness and funds for spinal cord injury research.Brooke opens up about the moments that tested her the most, from facing fear alone on open roads to overcoming mental barriers that nearly made her quit. We dive deep into the mindset it takes to keep going when no one's watching, the importance of mental health, and how she learned to listen to her body through hormonal fluctuations, exhaustion, and self-doubt.She shares the why behind her journey, the story that inspired her to dedicate every mile to a cause bigger than herself, and what it felt like to finally cross the finish line after thousands of miles on her board.This episode is about courage, purpose, and what happens when you refuse to let fear make your decisions for you.

In 1980, a 20-year-old Graham Broyd turned a prestigious six-week scholarship to Washington, D.C. into the adventure of a lifetime. He traded his ticket for a flight to Los Angeles with a dream of surfing in Malibu and a wild plan to hitchhike across the country. In this episode, Graham shares the incredible story of his journey, a tale he revisited in 2024 to see how the country and he had changed. This is the ultimate story of hitchhiking across America then and now. What happens when you have just $600 to survive for six weeks, relying on your wits and the kindness—or danger—of strangers?This sprawling conversation, a must-listen for fans of incredible travel stories, is like a living "Backpack, Jacket, Surfboard" book review. Author Graham Broyd sits down with Blaine DeSantis to recount his unbelievable journey. We hear tales of extreme budget survival, like his method for turning a single Big Mac into a three-course meal, a story that comically landed his book in the "cooking humor" category on Amazon. Graham shares the unwritten rules and etiquette of the road, offering a fascinating look into the lost art of hitchhiking. This Graham Broyd travel memoir comes to life as he discusses his disastrous first attempt at surfing in Malibu, how he acquired an eight-foot surfboard as a travel companion, and the frightening night he spent alone in the desolate expanse of Death Valley.The episode explores the stark difference between America in 1980 vs 2024, contrasting the past with the present through Graham's retraced journey. He shares thrilling and sometimes chilling stories from hitchhiking America, from navigating an unwelcome advance near the Grand Canyon to the bizarre experience of ending up in Tijuana, Mexico on a trip to Malibu—a mystery he still hasn't solved. We learn how a single smart jacket gave him access to the high-rolling casinos of 1980s Las Vegas and how a chance encounter in a youth hostel led to a stunning interview with Senator Howard Baker about the Panama Canal Treaty. This detailed look at hitchhiking across America then and now culminates in a tale of unexpected benevolence on the gritty subways of New York City, proving that adventure and humanity can be found where you least expect them.About Our Guest:Graham Broyd is the author of the travel memoir "Backpack, Jacket, Surfboard." In 1980, at the age of 20, he embarked on an impromptu hitchhiking trip across the United States, a journey that profoundly shaped his life. Over 40 years later, he retraced his steps to recapture 24 photos from his original trip, discovering not only how much America had changed, but how much he had as well.Timestamps:(00:00) A Scholarship Becomes an Epic Adventure(02:12) From D.C.

Send us a textEver wondered how to group travel to Disney and still have fun? We break down the real-world playbook from a weekend with a large group- 9 adults twelve kids, and zero meltdowns we couldn't fix with snacks, shade, and smart timing.We start with park news—our take on Soarin' Across America and what we hope Disney highlights for the 250th anniversary—then jump into Banana Ball's 2026 stop at ESPN Wide World of Sports and how to tackle the ticket lottery. The core of the episode is our group strategy: morning anchors at Magic Kingdom (PeopleMover, Carousel of Progress, and a Tron Lightning Lane), a smart lunch staging spot near Cheshire Café and Cosmic Ray's, and a split model that lets big kids chase thrills while littles stack short wins. Logistics can make or break a trip, so we get specific about transportation and timing. If you're exiting Epcot's back gate, be ready for Skyliner crunch and plan alternatives—front bus loop, your own car, or rideshare. We also share why party nights can mean lighter Magic Kingdom mornings, how to pick meetups that actually work, and the stroller truth no one wants to hear: bring one, even for bigger kids, to carry water, snacks, and tired legs. If you're the planner in your circle or joining friends who know Disney well, you'll leave with a clear template for expectations, safety, meals, and rides that keeps the magic high and the stress low.

Hot Takes on Rural Healthcare: Lessons from the Frontlines of a System in Decline

Across America, rural hospitals are facing an existential crisis. From physician burnout and recruitment struggles to malpractice insurance woes and shrinking OB units, the challenges facing small health systems are multiplying. According to the National Rural Health Association, roughly 190 rural hospitals have closed down or discontinued inpatient care since 2010 — and many more are at risk. As healthcare administrators grapple with these realities, leaders like Wayne Gillis are voicing hard truths that the industry can't afford to ignore.So, what's really happening behind the scenes in rural healthcare — and what can leaders do to ensure these communities don't face a “quiet collapse”?Welcome to I Don't Care. In the latest episode, Dr. Kevin Stevenson is joined by Wayne Gillis, President & CEO of Rehoboth McKinley Christian Health Care Services. Together, they explore the state of rural healthcare, the pressures facing modern physicians, and the evolving mindset of leadership in the post-COVID era. From the dangers of the boardroom to the rise of the “gig” healthcare workforce, this episode pulls no punches.Top insights…The Boardroom Effect: How decision-making too far removed from the front lines can create inefficiencies — or even risk patient safety.Burnout and Bureaucracy: Why younger physicians fear burnout as the norm and how administrative burdens and insurance interference are fueling the exodus.The Quiet Rural Collapse: How workforce shortages, declining reimbursements, and dwindling births are driving small-town healthcare toward a breaking point.Wayne Gillis is a healthcare executive and former health system CIO who blends clinical expertise with business strategy to drive transformation, operational excellence, and financial turnaround. As President & CEO of Rehoboth McKinley Christian Health Care Services, he led the organization to eliminate $15 million in debt, restore financial stability, and deliver its first positive EBITDA in years. Previously, as Market CEO of Great Falls Health Network, Gillis doubled EBITDA from $13 million to $27 million, oversaw a $70 million hospital expansion, and launched new heart and spine service lines. Earlier in his career at Wake Forest Baptist Health, he modernized reporting systems, integrated major acquisitions, and achieved multi-million-dollar cost savings through technology innovation and process redesign.

In this episode, best-selling author and former police officer Eric Tansey sits down with special guest Erik Johnson to tackle one of the toughest questions facing modern law enforcement: can a peace officer truly stay true to his oath while running for public office? Across America, sheriff elections have become high-stakes political contests. Money, influence, and media attention often collide with the values of integrity, service, and sacrifice that define real policing. In this in-depth conversation, Tansey and Johnson break down how good cops with the best intentions can be drawn into the darker side of politics — and how easy it is for a candidate to compromise himself or the very people he swore to protect. Elections often force officers into impossible moral territory. Can one person serve justice and politics at the same time — or must one always come at the expense of the other? The conversation explores: The hidden costs of campaign financing and how “support” often comes with strings attached. The tension between oath and ambition — when enforcing the law turns into chasing votes. Real-world examples of sheriff elections gone wrong, and stories of those who refused to sell out. The dangerous illusion of “community partnerships” built on backroom deals and endorsements. What true leadership looks like in an age where loyalty can be bought. Throughout the episode, Tansey and Johnson invite listeners to think critically about what it means to lead with integrity in law enforcement. They discuss how the politicization of police work erodes public trust, weakens accountability, and endangers both officers and citizens alike. Whether you're a cop, a voter, or simply someone who cares about the future of justice, this episode sheds light on the moral crossroads where law enforcement and politics collide. It's not just about elections — it's about identity, honor, and the cost of compromise. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
