In this episode of Rising Anxieties, Mariann Sullivan dives into the meat industry’s desperate attempts to declare veganism “dead” while simultaneously scrambling to rebrand their unsustainable practices. With her signature blend of skepticism and hope, Mariann unpacks Jessica Scott-Reid’s insightful Sentient Media article that reveals how Big Animal Ag’s obituaries for veganism conveniently ignore their own $300 billion industry’s massive lobbying…

In this eye-opening episode of Rising Anxieties, Mariann Sullivan dissects the agricultural industry’s transparent anxiety about the growing popularity of plant-based diets. From Farm Babe’s desperate defense of animal agriculture’s “sustainability” to Oklahoma’s hypocritical farmland ownership laws that conveniently exempt Chinese-owned Smithfield Foods, we witness an industry scrambling to maintain relevance as consumers increasingly recognize the environmental and ethical problems with…

Andrew and Ben talk through Netflix's proposed $72 billion deal to buy Warner Brothers, including the logic for Netflix, the frictionless nature of competition on the internet, and the threat that Netflix sees from YouTube. Then: David Zaslav's windfall, and an argument about the regulatory questions that may scuttle this deal. At the end: The better business model between YouTube and Netflix, an emailer wonders why everyone is mourning the end of a Hollywood business that can't succeed in the modern marketplace, groupchats and the college experience, and a word about Flighty.

PREVIEW — Anatol Lieven — Baltic States Fortifications and the Improbability of Russian Invasion. Lieven discusses Baltic state border fortification initiatives responding to legitimate security anxieties generated by Russian military operations in Ukraine and historic patterns of Russian territorial expansion and sphere-of-influence assertions. Lievenargues, however, that an actual Russian military invasion of NATO member states remains strategically improbable because attacking alliance members would catastrophically ruin Putin's geopolitical objectives by forcibly uniting Western powers in collective defense and risking direct great-power nuclear confrontation, rather than achieving Putin'sapparent goal of dividing European cohesion and fractioning the transatlantic alliance through coercive diplomacy and limited military operations short of direct NATO engagement. 1913

In this week’s edition of Rising Anxieties, Mariann Sullivan dives into the animal agriculture industry’s latest nightmares—which, unsurprisingly, include you. From hand-wringing about the movement’s supposed $865 million war chest to the Reddit whistleblower exposing paid anti-vegan trolls, we’re clearly living rent-free in Big Ag’s collective consciousness. Meanwhile, Iowa’s 110 billion pounds of untracked manure mysteriously “disappears,” Zoe Rosenberg faces jail…

Reality, Grief, and Hope: Our Posture of Lament challenges us to thoughtfully examine the intersection of faith and politics, exploring the role of the church in society amidst cultural challenges. From some of the greats (Walter Brueggemann and D Willy), we're able to map out a posture to hold in these time. From naming the reality we see around us, lamenting and grieving what we've seen and living in the hope of what's to come. In this episode of the Voxology Podcast, Mike Erre and Tim Stafford unpack the complexities of Christian nationalism, drawing parallels between biblical prophetic critiques and modern-day issues. Through a lens of cruciformity, they discuss how the teachings of Jesus call us to navigate cultural issues with humility, justice, and critical thinking. The hosts engage in an honest conversation about the importance of lament, naming uncomfortable truths, and pursuing hope in a divided world. From the misuse of religious rhetoric to the church's prophetic responsibility, this episode invites listeners to wrestle with questions of faith, politics, and the transformative power of Jesus' example. As cultural norms shift, how can Christians embody the way of Christ without compromising integrity and compassion? Join this deep dive into theology, justice, and the pressing challenges of our time.

We're trying to get caught up, after getting behind with all these Thursday games, as we record a few hours before the Cowboys game.

This week, Mariann dives headfirst into the murky waters of the UK’s “Spycops Scandal,” where undercover officers infiltrated animal rights groups with tactics ranging from the questionable to the downright duplicitous. Then, brace yourself for Mariann’s special brand of eye-rolling commentary on the self-congratulatory bubble of animal agriculture, where farming isn’t just a job but apparently a divine calling passed down…

In this irreverent episode of Rising Anxieties, Mariann Sullivan unpacks the latest worries keeping animal agriculture executives up at night—from avian influenza contingency plans to the surprising alliance between premium meat brands and animal advocates. With her trademark wit, Mariann dissects the absurdity of turkey “pardoning” ceremonies, exposes the dairy industry’s push to flood schools with whole milk (while conveniently excluding…

In this awkwardly revealing Thanksgiving episode, Mariann dives into the meat industry’s internal civil war as beef enthusiasts attempt a coup against Big Turkey just in time for the holidays. We witness the spectacle of industry professionals clutching their pearls when faced with market competition while simultaneously patting themselves on the back for their “noble sacrifice” of industrial animal slaughter. Meanwhile,…

"CALM in the Chaos""Anxieties" 

In this episode of Rising Anxieties, Mariann Sullivan unpacks the bewildering world of selective animal concern, from the bizarre Canadian ostrich saga that attracted celebrity saviors to the dairy industry’s reluctant admission that cows might actually have “preferred associates” (heaven forbid we call them friends).

This week on Rising Anxieties, Mariann Sullivan dives headfirst into the media’s convenient climate amnesia, where apparently animal agriculture’s massive emissions are just too spicy for mainstream coverage. A mere 3.8% of climate articles dare mention meat production—shocking absolutely no one who’s been paying attention. Meanwhile, the agricultural industry clutches its pearls at being called out, with one writer genuinely suggesting…

Money anxiety, retirement fears, and the quiet worry about being alone are hitting many women in midlife. In this walk-and-talk episode, Chalene Johnson opens up about the top financial and emotional concerns women are sharing right now—from fear of not saving enough to the loneliness that creeps in as life changes. She offers practical, doable steps to get control of your finances, strengthen your relationships, and create more security for the future.

In this week’s sardonic serving of Rising Anxieties, Mariann dives into the absurdist theater that is animal agriculture PR. From a tone-deaf defense of “necessary” mutilations (apparently clipping animals’ teeth is just like childproofing your home—who knew?), to some flattering paranoia about our movement’s supposed wealth and power, to the truly disturbing footage uncovered by Animal Partisan showing law enforcement conspiring…

"P" wants to be able to show up in these rocky times and hold space in difficult conversations but she finds it difficult to do when met with the perceived expectation of "getting everything right" - especially in political conversations.

In this revealing episode of Rising Anxieties, Mariann Sullivan peels back the paper-thin veneer of PR to expose what’s really making Big Meat break into a sweat.

Send Us a Message (include your contact info if you'd like a reply)Ever wondered what's truly driving the most difficult divorce cases? Fear might be the hidden force behind excessive legal fees, ongoing conflicts, and harmful decisions that impact families for years to come.The fears inventory is a powerful but often overlooked tool in the divorce coach's arsenal. As divorce coaches, when we help clients identify and address their deepest concerns—about conflict, finances, and parenting—we transform their ability to navigate the process. Fear doesn't always announce itself clearly. Instead, it manifests as controlling behavior, conflict escalation, perfectionism, or complete shutdown. Most tellingly, it appears as decision paralysis, where clients believe they're being strategic when their nervous system has actually thrown them into fight-flight-freeze mode.Through techniques like validation, exploring emotional undercurrents, using a future self lens, externalizing fear, and building body awareness, coaches can help clients move from fear-based to values-based decision making. This isn't about eliminating fear entirely—it's about putting it in the backseat so it's not driving the divorce process. When we help clients distinguish between what they can and cannot control, we reconnect them with their agency during a time when helplessness often takes over.The real magic happens when clients can align their decisions with their values instead of their fears. This transformation builds not just a better divorce outcome but long-term emotional resilience that serves clients well beyond the signing of final papers. Are you helping your clients identify what's keeping them up at night? If not, you might be missing the most powerful intervention available in your coaching toolkit. Join us to discover how addressing fear changes everything in the divorce coaching journey.

You can face life's uncertainties with peace when you remember that the God who holds the universe has your name engraved on His hands.

In this week’s episode of Rising Anxieties, Mariann Sullivan dives headfirst into the meat industry’s surveillance state that would make Big Brother blush. From the Animal Agriculture Alliance’s creepy database of 2,400 activists (complete with tracking their romantic partners) to their direct line to the FBI, we discover that taking photos of farm conditions is now considered “extreme activity” while the…

We're so glad you are here! Thanks for checking out Sunday's message!-- SUNDAY'S NOTES --Pro. 13:12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick… ( Act 27:20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and the storm continued raging, we finally gave up all hope of being saved) (Zero expectation that this situation would get better, and great expectation they were fixin to die!)PAUL WAS HOPELESS!I believe that since Paul was human, He took His eyes off of the promise God had given him, let the enemys voice influence his faith and gave up.Have you heard that enemy voice whisper to you? THIS IS THE END…Its Over?They wont ever serve JesusYou will never get a better or another JobYou wont ever walk in freedom from this substanceFear and Anxiety will always control you!Your marriage wont surviveYour pain will never subsideYour ship is gonna sink and you gonna die!If we continue to let this voice whisper, we too will become HOPELESS! Jonah was running away from God, Paul was running towards God!Both men encountered a terrible storm:Hope from the root-Tikvaw To fasten/tie/attach Now we know from what the bible says Heb. 6:19 that Jesus is our hope and… that Jesus is our HopeHope is an attachment or tying yourself to Jesus in real everyday relationship. This attachment births in your heart an expectation of something good that you cant see yet.If you need hope, You fasten yourself to Jesus.He is the only source of Hope that will never let you down.Talk about rooted! Now This is what you need to know about fastening to Jesus, Its Surrender!, Its giving control of your life to Him, You go where He goes, You do what He does… knowing that He Loves you like crazy and has your best interest at heart, If He takes you into a storm he is working it for your good ☺…It takes FAITH to trust Him when You cant see the end of the storm!Takeaway:There are no deeper roots/no greaterBut watch this…If true hope is being tied tight to Jesus, to become HOPE-LESS means that you have become unattached to that very same hope.We see this in Both Jonah and Paul, they were both hopeless because either in their thought process or actions they became unattached to the source of Hope! GOOD NEWS ALERT!They each survived a terrible storm/a hopeless situation and went on to fulfill Gods call on their lives!HOW?

We're so glad you are here! Thanks for checking out Sunday's message!-- SUNDAY'S NOTES --Pro. 13:12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick… ( Act 27:20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and the storm continued raging, we finally gave up all hope of being saved) (Zero expectation that this situation would get better, and great expectation they were fixin to die!)PAUL WAS HOPELESS!I believe that since Paul was human, He took His eyes off of the promise God had given him, let the enemys voice influence his faith and gave up.Have you heard that enemy voice whisper to you? THIS IS THE END…Its Over?They wont ever serve JesusYou will never get a better or another JobYou wont ever walk in freedom from this substanceFear and Anxiety will always control you!Your marriage wont surviveYour pain will never subsideYour ship is gonna sink and you gonna die!If we continue to let this voice whisper, we too will become HOPELESS! Jonah was running away from God, Paul was running towards God!Both men encountered a terrible storm:Hope from the root-Tikvaw To fasten/tie/attach Now we know from what the bible says Heb. 6:19 that Jesus is our hope and… that Jesus is our HopeHope is an attachment or tying yourself to Jesus in real everyday relationship. This attachment births in your heart an expectation of something good that you cant see yet.If you need hope, You fasten yourself to Jesus.He is the only source of Hope that will never let you down.Talk about rooted! Now This is what you need to know about fastening to Jesus, Its Surrender!, Its giving control of your life to Him, You go where He goes, You do what He does… knowing that He Loves you like crazy and has your best interest at heart, If He takes you into a storm he is working it for your good ☺…It takes FAITH to trust Him when You cant see the end of the storm!Takeaway:There are no deeper roots/no greaterBut watch this…If true hope is being tied tight to Jesus, to become HOPE-LESS means that you have become unattached to that very same hope.We see this in Both Jonah and Paul, they were both hopeless because either in their thought process or actions they became unattached to the source of Hope! GOOD NEWS ALERT!They each survived a terrible storm/a hopeless situation and went on to fulfill Gods call on their lives!HOW? What was the common denominator that restored their hope?Jonah 2:6,7 Jonah 2:6,7 7 “When my life was ebbing away(in hopelessness),    I remembered you, Lord,and my prayer rose to you,    to your holy temple.6 and you, Lord my God,    brought my life up from the pit.I cried out to the Lord in my affliction, from sheol(the grave)I was a goner, but I repented(re-attached) myself to God, he heard me- delivered me and restored my hope!God met Paul in the belly of a great ship—Quiet possibly the darkest most hopeless night of his life, hungry/wet/seasick/…HOW DID HE OVERCOME THIS?

In this episode of Rising Anxieties, we go on a whirlwind tour through the meat industry’s latest absurdities. From a meat industry writer’s hilariously misguided claim about “the first real science fiction movie” to the EPA’s disturbing rollback of slaughterhouse waste regulations (because nothing says “unleashing prosperity” like animal blood in the water supply), Mariann doesn’t hold back. The episode culminates…

Totally tangential, y'all. In this episode, Rhett & Link discuss what tactics they use to cope with anxieties, what animal they think should replace humans if we ever went extinct, and get into various tangents about friends with benefits, California slang words, things stuck in Rhett's mustache, and a long-winded conversation with a lot of initials.

So let yourself slither around in your bed until you find the sleeping position you love the most. Take a deep breath in when you find it, And then exhale and settle even deeper into your bed. Be here. With the stillness of the night. And allow its cool, calm silence to isolate those thoughts racing through your mind.  Those worries, Anxieties,  Stresses, Fears.  They are the ones in rigorous motion against the backdrop of the stillness. PAUSE… Thoughts. Stories. Emotions. That's all they are.  They are not you. What's true is this moment.   This breath. You.  Here on your bed.  Alive.  Breathing.   So allow yourself to separate them from you, All these worries. Inviting them to exit the rapid movement inside your head, And enter the stillness of the night.  This moment of presence, Where the worries cannot exist.  Watch them dissolve in the space around you, The tiny grains of sand spilling from them until nothing is left.  Release the worries into the peaceful presence of the night.

Adam Hurrey, Charlie Eccleshare, David Walker and Nick Miller entertain this month's listener entries for Mesut Haaland Dicks, as the Clichés faithful nominate their niche footballing fascinations and irritations. Among the selections are the players' disbelieving reactions to team-mates' wondergoals, goalkeepers who react furiously to Panenkas against them, the anxiety of shooting into an empty goal in a 5-a-side warm-up and a never-before-heard grievance about scoring penalty shootouts. Meanwhile, the Adjudication Panel assess Peter Crouch's "streets won't forget" 5-a-side lineup and wonder if some lamentable footballspeak in a political drama is not quite as it seems.

In this week’s delightfully disturbing dive into animal agriculture’s paranoia, Mariann Sullivan unpacks the industry’s latest pearl-clutching over those pesky activists who have the audacity to…checks notes…document actual conditions on farms.

In this week’s Rising Anxieties, Mariann Sullivan dives into the theater of the absurd that is animal agriculture politics. From the Trump administration’s laughable attempt to blame California’s cage-free egg laws for nationwide price hikes (spoiler alert: it’s actually bird flu), to pork industry lobbyists desperately trying to justify their existence by fighting animal welfare laws nobody asked them to fight.…
