Mary welcomes back Kyle and Flynn to talk about the nuances of how we process information - at the biblical level. Every day, we are processing probably more info than most people ever did in a lifetime in previous generations. We listen to preachers, podcasts, YouTubes, and we read volumes some days. Are we really listening critically? What about pre-texts and presumptions? We all bring with us various biases, experiences, flaws and flesh. But the Bible is unique, isn't it? Don't we want a firm foundation? Are we even concerned about said biases and preconceptions, in that they can cause a cracked foundation? We talk about all the ways that we can "watch our life and doctrine closely" so as not to ruin the hearers, but help them see the truth. A high calling indeed. Apologists, authors, podcasters - Kyle and Flynn are perfect for dissecting this subject and seeing what we can take away from how we hear, read, and process profound truth.

“In Texas, a socialist professor is now in the fight of his life against MAGA's New McCarthyism,” scholar and author Bill V. Mullen writes in Jacobin. “Tom Alter, a labor historian and tenured professor of history at Texas State University, was fired from his job on September 10 after a far-right troll doctored a videotape of Alter speaking at a virtual Revolutionary Socialism conference. After viewing the video, university president Kelly Damphousse fired Alter on September 10 with what Alter and his supporters say was no due process.” While Alter was provisionally reinstated on Sept. 26, he and his family remain in limbo as they wait for a final decision from Texas State University regarding his firing. In this urgent episode of Working People, we speak with Professor Alter himself about the sequence of events that have made his case a flashpoint in the MAGA right's all-out assault on free speech, higher education, and the people who live, work, and study there.

Following their conversation with Dr Steve Hassan in part 1, our hosts kept talking! In this part 2 of the conversation they talk about the importance of survivor voices in research, and why historically some researchers have appeared to listen to cult leaders rather than cult survivors.

Let Me Be Frank | Bishop Frank Caggiano's Podcast | Diocese of Bridgeport, CT
Imagine your father brought your family to the US from India, so that he could study to become a Baptist minister. And then, as you grew older, you left the Baptists to become a Catholic. That's the story of Suan Sonna, the new Director of Apologetics for the Diocese of Bridgeport. What is apologetics? Why is it important? In a society where people believe everyone has their own truth... how do you engage in meaningful dialogue about the Faith and the things that matter most? These are really deep questions... which Bishop Caggiano discusses with Suan on Let Me Be Frank. Suan has a plan to instill a culture of thoughtfulness and make all Catholics here equipped to discuss Catholicism and defend the Faith (with gentleness and reverence).

This week we invite Dr Steven Hassan to join us to discuss the cult apologist movement. Dr Hassan is the author of the BITE Model of Authoritarian Control and the Influence Continuum. In this fascinating conversation we unpack the history behind this propaganda movement, why survivor voices are not welcome in their narratives, and examine why high profile cult apologists like Professor Eileen Barker might be given a platform to speak at academic conferences whose goal is to examine the harms of cults.Show NotesWebsite: London School of Economic and Political Science - Professor Eileen BarkerWebsite: Freedom of Mind Resource Centre - the Influence Continuum Professional Development: Understanding Cults for Clinicians - Freedom of MindSurvey: the use of the Bite Model as a tool for evaluating organisationsWebsite: Daniel Kahneman's work on judgement and decision-makingBook: Releasing the Bonds by Dr Steven HassanArticle: New York Times: Moon's sect loses libel suit in London

Jim Bennett is an online Latter Day Saint commentator who has some very strong opinions about me. So I decided to have another conversation with him moderated by our mutual friend Steven Pynakker of @MormonBookReviews.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Michael Thiessen, Pastor Nate Wright, and Dr. Joe Boot discuss the implications of Charlie Kirk's death and the church's response to it. They express concern over the reluctance of many church leaders to acknowledge Kirk's martyrdom and the broader cultural implications of this silence. The conversation delves into the truncation of the gospel, the political nature of the Christian message, and the need for the church to engage with cultural issues rather than retreating into silence. They emphasize the importance of recognizing the gospel as a transformative force in society and the necessity of addressing violence and injustice from a biblical perspective.

Where should someone start studying church history? Many people jump straight to Augustine, the Creeds, or the Councils — but the real starting point is with Eusebius of Caesarea, the first great historian of the Church.In this episode of The FACTS Podcast with Dr. Stephen Boyce, we explore: • Who Eusebius was and why he matters. • How his Ecclesiastical History preserves documents we would otherwise have lost. • Why he gives the best “map” of Christianity from the apostles to Constantine. • How to read him critically, seeing both his strengths and biases. • A recommended pathway for continuing after Eusebius with the Apostolic Fathers, Apologists, and Nicene defenders.If you've ever asked, “Where should I begin my study of church history?” — this is the episode for you.

What happens after an employee clicks on a phishing link? Jason Hoenich (hey-nick), the self-proclaimed "Security Awareness Apologist," believes that's where the real education begins. Drawing from his experiences at major entertainment companies like Disney and Sony, Jason shares how live hacking demonstrations where employees witness real-time compromises create powerful, unforgettable learning moments.The conversation dives deep into why traditional security awareness approaches fall short. While phishing simulations and generic training modules check compliance boxes, they rarely drive meaningful behavior change. The most effective programs go beyond making people aware of threats—they make secure behaviors easy and intuitive while building a security-conscious culture from the ground up.One of Jason's most compelling insights revolves around relationship-building. Security awareness professionals who form strategic partnerships with HR, Legal, and Corporate Communications unlock unprecedented program potential. These connections transform potential roadblocks into champions who help tailor messaging and navigate brand considerations when creating engaging content.Security champion programs emerge as another powerful strategy for organizations with global or diverse workforces. By identifying influencers throughout different business units and locations, security teams can extend their reach and ensure messaging resonates across various cultures and job functions. These champions provide invaluable feedback while translating technical concepts into language that connects with their colleagues.The future of human risk management lies in personalization and actionable insights. Rather than just identifying risky behaviors, advanced tools should offer immediate remediation options—imagine a system that not only alerts an employee to unsecured files but offers a one-click solution to fix the vulnerability instantly.Ready to transform your security awareness program? Start by assessing your program's maturity and developing a comprehensive strategy that goes beyond basic tools. Remember Jason's advice: "Strategy, strategy, strategy. If you don't have one, work on it." Your journey toward meaningful security awareness begins with this episode.
