Patrick takes heartfelt questions from callers wrestling with scrupulosity, confession anxiety, and misunderstandings about Catholic teaching on celibacy and sin. He shares practical wisdom, weaving in scripture and personal encouragement, as listeners reveal their own struggles with temptation, family faith conflicts, and daily spiritual challenges. His perspective brings clarity and reassurance to those unsure about where they stand with God or how to approach difficult conversations in faith. Laura (email) - I'm not sure if I am behaving too scrupulous or not. (00:44) Jim - My son went to a Baptism where there was a married priest. This confuses me. I feel discouraged that married men can't become priests. (11:49) Patricia - Is the Farmer's Almanac demonic? (21:16) Allan - What is the Theotokos? Is Mary divine? (25:21) Nick - My Church offers confession every day. If I have a strong temptation, is that appropriate to take to confession? (27:52) Pat - You said that priests cannot marry because of their choice. Do married priests still have to practice celibacy and can they get remarried? (37:43) Maria - I am trying to evangelize a Muslim, and he does believe He is a prophet. How do I explain to Muslims that Jesus died and rose again? (45:11)
Our guest this morning on Bob Tanem In The Garden with Edie Tanem was Sandi Duncan, who took over the reins as Editor of the Farmers' Almanac a couple of years ago. This years' edition features some minor changes to reflect Sandi's touch, but as always the Almanac has stories, anecdotes, seasonal and calendar items, and more. Trivia buffs will especially love this publication -- published annually since the 1800's -- because it's full of fun facts.Sandi spent the hour with us and gave us a glimpse under the curtain for how the book is curated and the thought processes that are behind it. The 2026 edition went onsite at farmersalmanac.com and on grocery checkout stands everywhere; it's the orange and green one. This podcast edition of the radio show is identical to the original broadcast, minus some of the ads and all of the music. The show is heard live on Sunday mornings from 9-10 Pacific time on 810 KSFO, and streaming on our website at KSFO.com.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Every so often, you encounter The Perfect Movie: something with a screenplay, cast, and direction that combine in a way that reminds you of what happens when everyone working on a movie gets it exactly right. History is Made at Night (1937) is one of those movies. Join us for a conversation about how a film that accelerates emotions almost to the level of farce and shifts between genres like a bored teenager with a remote control still dramatizes perfectly what it's like to fall in love. Hervé Dumont's 1993 book Frank Borzage: The Life and Films of a Hollywood Romantic offers complete coverage of Borzage's entire career: the more than 100 films he made and the effect of those films on movie audiences, especially between 1920 and 1940.

While October appears calm in terms of transits, beneath the surface, a deeper theme is unfolding, one that involves shifting Fear into Wisdom. October opens under the influence of the Spleen Center in Human Design, where the Sun highlights the gates of fear and intuition. This is not a month to project ahead or dwell in the past — it's a month that demands presence. The Full Supermoon in Aries early in the month intensifies this theme, pulling fears, shadows, and hidden truths into the light. WithMercury and Mars in Scorpio at the apex of a Yod, sharp conversations and bold choices become unavoidable. The discomfort you feel is not a mistake — it's a guide, pointing you toward growth and clarity.Tam and I break it all down for you in this podcast.
Hey, Poison Friends! It is Spooky Season! So let's celebrate with some spookier content, shall we? No trigger warnings this episode for gore or violence or anything too scary. Should any of our episodes this season involve such content, I will say so here in the notes! Today, I want to walk you through a history of curses and provide some examples of such. What is a curse and who came up with the idea? They have been around for as long as people have lived among each other and have provided them with an explanation of misfortune or even used to process mislaid justice. We are going way back, to Assyrian Kings, the ancient Greeks & Romans, ancient Egypt, religious works of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity, medieval Europe, colonial America, and other parts of the world such as Asian countries, Central and South America, etc. There was a lot to cover and I did my best to crunch it all in here along with some well known curses that have survived to modern times, like that of the evil eye. Y'all know I could not just leave it there. We are discussing some examples of curses that may befall those who steal from the land itself. Pele's curse concerning the history and natural resources of Hawaii being disrespected is one such example. Another is that of the Petrified Forest in Arizona. Note: it is illegal to steal/take any piece of a national forest away. Both of these historic and beautiful places have seen the effects of these curses in the form of letters and the return of rocks and sand and wood. These letters tell stories of misery and even tragedy that those who took these artifacts experienced after the fact. The senders express hope that by apologizing and sending the pieces back, their luck may change. If you really need that souvenir in the form of a piece of the land, be warned, because it may be the curse that gets you. We'll cover some examples of plants associated with various curses as well, so come along and learn something spooky with us. Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters!

What worked for You in September 2025? What Didn't Work for You in September?he last week of September (approximately Sept 21-30) acts as a pivot, integrating Shift to Libra Energy: The Sun moved into Libra around September 22nd (Autumn Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere), shifting the collective focus from Virgo's analytical, service-oriented, and detail-driven themes to Libra's focus on balance, relationships, fairness, and aesthetics.Solar Eclipse Integration (Virgo): The week begins with the immediate aftermath and integration of the Partial Solar Eclipse in Virgo (around Sept 21-22). This eclipse emphasized a clean break or fresh start in areas of daily routine, health, work habits, and practical service.Karmic/Psychological Closure (Eclipse Season): September's overall theme was marked by an eclipse season (Lunar Eclipse in Pisces, Solar Eclipse in Virgo), bringing immense pressure for closure, release, and transformation of deep-seated karmic or psychological patterns.Venus in Virgo's Detail Focus: Venus, the planet of love and values, spent the latter part of the month in Virgo, making relationships and financial matters subject to critical analysis, refinement, and service-based expressions of love before moving on.Mars in Scorpio Intensity: Mars, the planet of action and drive, moved into intense Scorpio near the week's start. This marks a shift from a potentially agreeable approach to action to a more deeply focused, strategic, and power-aware drive, especially around shared resources or intimacy (Mars enters Scorpio around Sept 22nd).Mental Shift to Diplomacy: Mercury's movement into diplomatic Libra mid-month meant the final week's communication and thinking favored objectivity, tact, and seeking consensus—a welcome break from the hyper-critical tendencies of Mercury in Virgo earlier in September.Saturn Retrograde's Boundary Review: Saturn in Pisces, still retrograde, kept the pressure on for a final review of personal and emotional boundaries and the structures supporting spiritual or creative pursuits, tying into the water-sign theme of the Lunar Eclipse.Uranus Retrograde's Internal Rebellion: Uranus retrograde (in Gemini) continued to direct energy for internal mental rebellion, illuminating restrictive thought patterns and supporting unconventional ideas, adding a surprise element to the week's conversations.Air Element Grand Trine/Kite: The week featured a powerful configuration (Sun in Libra trine Uranus in Gemini trine Pluto in Aquarius), indicating a flow of innovative thinking, social breakthroughs, and easy movement for ideas and progressive concepts within relationships and community.A Period of Rebalancing: Overall, the last week functioned as a necessary period of rebalancing—shifting from the heavy, deep, release-focused energy of the eclipses and the hard work of Virgo into tCreative Solutions for Holistic HealthcareHealer.comOur program includes: 4 online course modules Monthly webinars with all the latest scienceMy Patriot SupplyDon't Risk Disaster.

13 - ALMANAC - Credit creation and the fallacy of ‘financial repression' by Australian Citizens Party
Comedian Glenn Moore looks in his almanac at world events and what he was doing at the time. In this episode, a deadly spy operation causes Glenn to suspect his completely innocent Russian flatmate who just happens to have a novelty cigarette lighter in the shape of a gun. And not a novelty gun in the shape of a cigarette lighter.Perhaps best-known for his outrageously brilliant one-liners on Mock The Week , Glenn delivers a tale of comic mishaps and extraordinary scenes interwoven with a big event in history – and looks back through his almanac to find out other strange connections to the day as well.This is the first episode of the Second series of Glenn Moore's Almanac. To hear more episodes, search "Stand-Up Specials" on BBC Sounds.Written by Glenn with additional material by Katie Storey (Have I Got News For You, Mock The Week, The Last Leg) and produced and directed by David Tyler (Cabin Pressure, Armando Iannucci's Charm Offensive, etc)A Pozzitive production for BBC Radio 4
Hey Poison Friends! I know I promised a lot for this one episode, including West Nile, Zika, EEE, and Malaria. The truth is, malaria is just a huge topic on its own and instead of keeping you all here for hours at one time, we are discussing malaria in all of its old and new world glory, so to speak. I will be adding an extra bonus on our Patreon later this week that will be free for all for those still interested in West Nile/Zika, so come check that out there. The parasite that causes malaria is actually older than us humans and since humans entered the scene, they have been our nemesis. Mosquitoes are known to be, historically, the deadliest animal simply because of how many people have died due to malaria that they have transmitted. We are discussing the history of humankind vs mosquito/malaria and how various people groups of different eras attempted to deal with the disease. From the ancient Egyptians, to the Greeks, the Romans, ancient China, and those living throughout the middle ages in Europe. Previous notions were that malaria came from "bad air" and, in fact, the name comes from the Italian for "bad air." The Miasma and Humors theories were still prevalent in medicine, of course, until the true means of infection were discovered in the late 1800s. Also, we cannot leave out its historic prevalence in Africa and its later history among the American colonies, the Native Americans (indigenous groups in North and South America), Oceania, and among and throughout the African slave trade. History has been a doozy, lets be honest, and mosquitoes (and malaria) have witnessed it all. They even had their effects on historical events like the Fall of Rome, the Revolutionary War, Civil War, WWII, etc. We are delving into the science as well, discussing who discovered its causal agent and who found how it was transmitted via mosquito. Needless to say, the war with malaria has been awful through the centuries and in Sub-Saharan Africa, it still is. The disease is also still prevalent in Southeast Asia and in South America. So what have been the historic methods of treatment and how far have we come in this fight? Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters!

Everybody was shocked when, in 1999, David Lynch released a G-rated film with a Norman Rockwell setting that didn't have a dark underbelly or wild reveal; if you have a David Lynch bingo card, The Straight Story is the free space. And while The Straight Story is as wholesome a film as you can find, it's never sentimental or corny. Dan thinks it's Lynch's best. Join him and Mike as they talk about all the ways that the film could have gone wrong and, more importantly, all the things that Lynch gets right about aging, regret, and family. Any fan of David Lynch's work should read Room to Dream, Lynch's memoir that's as unique as the man himself: the book has alternating chapters of Lynch and his official biographer telling the story of his life.

Hey Poison Friends! We are just starting to feel the slightest edges of Fall/Autumn here. It is more like “false Fall” as we call it, because the temps here will hit the 90s again before it actually gets cooler. I mention this, in part, because I love fall and spooky season and because I am looking forward to the demise of critters like mosquitoes. Mosquitoes are famously known as the deadliest critter on our planet, simply because of the deadly diseases they spread. We will mainly being talking about Aedes aegypti (Egyptian Mosquito) and the Aedes albopictus (Asian Tiger Mosquito) this episode because they are the common spreaders of the three diseases we are discussing today: Yellow Fever, Chikungunya, and Dengue Fever. I want to look at the histories and track records of these diseases and how they affected humanity throughout. Yellow Fever, for instance, was a much feared illness between the 1600s-1900s, with grotesque symptoms and relatively high death rate. Chikungunya, while having a lower death rate, has caused great pain and disability. Dengue Fever is not just historic, but making a come back. It is also called “bonebreak fever” and for good reason.

We are covering this topic because the day of release is Word Suicide Prevention day and we wanted to use our platform to bring light to a cause we are extremely passionate about. Because mental health, life experiences, culture, etc. differs from person to person, we decided to incorporate some of our podcast friends into this episode to consider their various perspectives on this topic. Thank you to everyone who helped make this episode possible.

Hello Poison Friends! We have discussed quite a few heavy metals, but not all of them. While we did mention Antimony awhile back, we did not give it the attention it deserves, so this would be a great time to do so. Before getting too deep into Antimony, however, a review on purging with emetics and the history there concerning the "rebalancing of humors" as well as the more modern "ridding oneself of toxins," is in order. One emetic that is more recent in our history is Ipecac. Technically, or medicinally, it went by the name Syrup of Ipecac. Parents, here in America at least, were told by the American Association of Pediatricians to keep a bottle in their homes at all times in case of children accidentally poisoning themselves. What we have learned since the late 1990s however is that not only is Ipecac not really effective at treating poisoning cases, but it is also toxic and can lead to its own complications including irritation of the GI tract and airways, seizures, and heart problems. There are now more efficient and safe ways to treat cases of poisoning that do not involve forced vomiting. Throughout history, people have leaned on various toxic substances to cause themselves to vomit or that would induce diarrhea as a way of healing or keeping oneself healthy. It doesn't sound pleasant but what they used made it even less so. Antimony does cause GI distress including vomiting and diarrhea and can also lead to muscle weakness, gastric ulcers, seizures, kidney disease, cardiovascular diseases, neurological disease, respiratory distress, and blistering of the skin if topically applied. It has also been found to be carcinogenic. Acute use at high dosages, or chronic use at any dose, could lead to poisoning and death. People used Antimony medicinally (as Tartar emetic, namely) for a number of different ailments including epilepsy, syphilis, tuberculosis, and GI distress of all sorts. It was even used for alcoholism, and in some countries, it still is. In centuries past, they even had accessories to go along with their toxic medicine. So let's go through the history of these substances and you know some interesting and familiar names will pop up along the way including a Biblical character/Babylonian king, Isaac Newton, a King of France, and a founding father with a penchant for excessive bleeding and purging.

In this episode we speak to Anne Lawrence-Mathers, Professor of History at the University of Reading about her new book Medieval Meteorology: Forecasting the Weather from Aristotle to the Almanac, out this year, 2020, with Cambridge University Press. The practice of weather forecasting underwent a crucial transformation in the Middle Ages. Exploring how scientifically-based meteorology spread and flourished from c.700-c.1600, this study reveals the dramatic changes in forecasting and how the new science of 'astro-meteorology' developed. Both narrower and more practical in its approach than earlier forms of meteorology, this new science claimed to deliver weather forecasts for months and even years ahead, on the premise that weather is caused by the atmospheric effects of the planets and stars, and mediated by local and seasonal climatic conditions. Anne Lawrence-Mathers explores how these forecasts were made and explains the growing practice of recording actual weather. These records were used to support forecasting practices, and their popularity grew from the fourteenth century onwards. Essential reading for anyone interested in medieval science, Medieval Meteorology demonstrates that the roots of scientific forecasting are much deeper than is usually recognized. Professor Lawrence-Mathers is the author of The True History of Merlin the Magician and Magic and Medieval Society,(along with Carolina Escobar-Vargas) as well as a host of articles and reviews about Medieval magic and religion. With this book the author continues her examination of spiritual practice – licit and illicit, clerical and lay – as it was culturally understood in the medieval era.

NFL Cutdown Day happened on Tuesday, and...it was a little underwhelming? At least in terms of big names changing teams, Cutdown Day didn't really deliver. But we *did* get some pretty big roster news elsewhere, with players who did and didn't wind up going on PUP lists and IR lists. We'll handle that material, we'll read Brian Robinson's *new* Almanac profile, and then we'll have a look at the handicapping market for the NFL in 2025. What team win totals do we like and not like, who do we like to lead the major stat categories, are there player props we like, etc. Fun show! Guest: Chris Raybon from The Action Network.
