In the wake of the October 7, 2023 massacre in Israel, countless individuals around the world searched for ways to respond. For Marlene Kolangi, a New York-based fashion designer and entrepreneur, the answer was clear: dedicate her life to helping the children left behind. Kolangi, founder of the successful bridal and modest fashion brand Kaituz in Queens, is widely known in the modest fashion and wig communities for her custom designs that empower women to feel beautiful and confident. But after October 7, her professional focus took a dramatic turn. Deeply shaken by the terrorist attacks and the devastating toll on Israeli families, Kolangi founded Israel Orphans of 10/7, an organization devoted exclusively to supporting children who lost one or both parents in the massacre and subsequent war. Appearing on Episode 47 of the Alan Skorski Reports podcast, Kolangi shared how the tragedy transformed her life and mission. “I couldn't just sit back,” she explained. “These children lost everything in a single day. They need more than sympathy — they need stability, support, and a future.” Her organization provides both immediate and long-term assistance, including: Emergency financial aid for basic needs Long-term savings accounts for each orphan Funding for life milestones such as bar and bat mitzvahs, education, and weddings Emotional care services, including play therapy and personalized support Kolangi emphasized that her work goes beyond writing checks. She personally travels to Israel, meeting families face-to-face, listening to their stories, and delivering assistance directly — whether through funds, gift cards, clothing, or ongoing personal relationships. “The most important thing is dignity,” she said. “These children should not feel forgotten. They should feel embraced by the entire Jewish people.” A single mother herself, Kolangi has been profiled in several Jewish media outlets, including Arutz Sheva, The Jewish Link, and VINnews, where she has been described as a “superhero” for transforming her business platform into a vehicle for communal healing. She also speaks at Jewish inspirational gatherings and communal events, including Project Inspire, where she encourages others to turn pain into purpose. According to Kolangi, the mission is long-term. While global attention may shift, the needs of October 7's youngest victims remain. “This is not a six-month project,” she noted. “These children will grow up with this loss. We are committed to walking with them for years — through school, through milestones, through life.” Supporters can learn more or contribute to Israel Orphans of 10/7 through its fundraising platform, often linked via CauseMatch under the Healing Heroes campaign. As the Jewish world continues to grapple with the aftermath of October 7, Kolangi's work stands as a powerful example of grassroots leadership — channeling heartbreak into hope, and tragedy into tangible action for Israel's most vulnerable. -VIN News Donations can be made through: https://causematch.com/healingheroes Contact the Organization: info@israelorphansof10seven.org Subscribe to Alan Skorski Reports: www.youtube.com/@AlanSkorskiReports Alan Skorski Reports 12FEB2026 - PODCAST
Appearing strong is often praised as discipline, resilience, and maturity. But what happens when strength never softens? In this episode, we explore the hidden biological and emotional cost of always holding it together. Chronic vigilance, digestive dysregulation, emotional isolation, and fatigue that rest doesn't fix aren't personal failures — they're signals from a nervous system that never learned it was safe to stand down. This conversation unpacks how strength becomes armor, why the body compensates when rest feels unsafe, and how true regulation begins not with effort — but with restraint. Show Notes ➝ Why appearing strong keeps the nervous system in survival mode ➝ The difference between resilience and chronic vigilance ➝ How digestion, sleep, and fatigue reveal hidden stress ➝ Why rest can feel unsafe for high-achievers ➝ Strength vs. regulation: the biological distinction ➝ How restraint becomes a higher form of discipline ➝ What it means to soften without collapsing Be sure to subscribe to our podcast and YouTube channel so you never miss an episode of the EASE OS: Less Effort, More Power!

In this episode, we listen to a pointed refusal to a request, as depicted in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 176, penned by Marutham Paadiya Ilankadunko. The verse is situated amidst the flourishing fields of the ‘Marutham’ or ‘Farmlands landscape’ and presents a precise portrait of the other woman. கடல் கண்டன்ன கண் அகன் பரப்பின்நிலம் பக வீழ்ந்த வேர் முதிர் கிழங்கின்கழை கண்டன்ன தூம்புடைத் திரள் கால்,களிற்றுச் செவி அன்ன பாசடை மருங்கில்,கழு நிவந்தன்ன கொழு முகை இடை இடைமுறுவல் முகத்தின் பல் மலர் தயங்க,பூத்த தாமரைப் புள் இமிழ் பழனத்து,வேப்பு நனை அன்ன நெடுங் கண் நீர்ஞெண்டுஇரை தேர் வெண் குருகு அஞ்சி, அயலதுஒலித்த பகன்றை இருஞ் சேற்று அள்ளல்,திதலையின் வரிப்ப ஓடி, விரைந்து தன்நீர் மலி மண் அளைச் செறியும் ஊர! மனை நகு வயலை மரன் இவர் கொழுங் கொடிஅரி மலர் ஆம்பலொடு ஆர்தழை தைஇ,விழவு ஆடு மகளிரொடு தழூஉ அணிப் பொலிந்து,மலர் ஏர் உண்கண் மாண் இழை முன்கைக்குறுந் தொடி துடக்கிய நெடுந் தொடர் விடுத்ததுஉடன்றனள் போலும், நின் காதலி? எம் போல்புல் உளைக் குடுமிப் புதல்வற் பயந்து,நெல்லுடை நெடு நகர் நின் இன்று உறைய,என்ன கடத்தளோ, மற்றே? தன் முகத்துஎழுது எழில் சிதைய அழுதனள் ஏங்கி,வடித்தென உருத்த தித்திப் பல் ஊழ்நொடித்தெனச் சிவந்த மெல் விரல் திருகுபு,கூர்நுனை மழுகிய எயிற்றள்ஊர் முழுதும் நுவலும் நிற் காணிய சென்மே. A long song and trip to this prosperous but troubled landscape, where we get to hear the confidante, say these words to the man, when he comes seeking entry into the lady’s house, after being in the company of a courtesan for a while: “Appearing like a sea, as far as the eyes can see, spreads the land. With deep roots, akin to mature tubers that split the earth, with hollow thick stems, appearing akin to bamboos, green leaves, akin to an elephant's ears, fleshy buds, bursting in between here and there, akin to upraised stakes, are the many lotus flowers that sway here and there in between, like smiling faces. In this field, blooming with lotuses and resounding with bird songs, having tall eyes, akin to neem flowers, a water crab fearing a white bird that's searching for prey, scuttles on dark, muddy spaces, where rattle-pods have sprouted thickly, and making marks, akin to pallor spots, rushes to hide inside its water-filled mud pits. Such is your town, O lord! Wearing a fine garment of leaves and flowers, woven with thick vines of ‘vayalai' creepers, growing in the house, and radiant flowers of white lily, glowing with the beauty of dancing together with maiden at the town festival, having flower-like, beautiful, kohl-streaked eyes, and forearms, decked with fine jewels and small bangles, that lover of yours seems to have sulked with you when you happened to simply loosen your long embrace! She has been crying with yearning, ruining the painted beauty of her face, making pallor spots, akin to melted gold, spread on her form. Cracking her knuckles many, many times, she makes her delicate fingers turn red. That maiden, whose sharp teeth are blunted, now roams the town entire in search of you! Does she have the fate like the lady, to live patiently without you, after bearing and rearing your son, who has a grass-like tuft of hair, and to be shut within the expense of this grain-filled, wide mansion?” Let’s chase some field crabs and learn what’s cooking in this part of the world! The confidante starts with a long description of the man’s town, bringing before our eyes, the expansive fields, where lotuses are blooming, and she builds a stack of similes calling the bloomed lotus flowers as smiling faces, the buds standing tall as stakes, the leaves as elephant’s ears, the roots as firm and mature tubers and the land itself as the vast and spreading sea. After setting the scene, she zooms on to a particular creature there, a crab, who tall eyes are compared to neem flowers. She then depicts how this animal fears a hovering bird, looking for prey, and rushes to hide in its little mud hole. Such is your town, the confidante tells the man. No doubt she means to conceal some meaning here but we’ll get to that in a moment! Then she goes on to talk about a particular woman, a courtesan who happens to be the man’s lover. She etches the flowers and leaves that the woman wears, and how the courtesan dances exuberantly in the town festivities. Then, she describes the woman’s eyes and bejewelled forearms. After all the framing, the confidante comes to the crux and says how that courtesan had started quarrelling with the man, just because he happened to loosen his embrace. That lover of his seems to have been filled with much agony, as visible from her tears that ruined her painted beauty, the golden pallor spots and her cracking of the knuckles too many times, reddening those slender fingers. The confidante talks about how that courtesan is searching all over town, to catch hold of the man again. She contrasts the state of the lady, who after giving birth and rearing the man’s child, had to stay within their wealthy mansion, no matter where the man went or what he did, and concludes by sarcastically remarking that the courtesan has no such restrictions! In the scene of the scuttling crab and the hovering bird, the confidante places a metaphor for how slander spread by the townsfolk had driven the man back to his home, seeking the lady’s company, and it’s not true love that has brought him there. In essence, it’s a refusal to allow the man to return back, after his escapades with the courtesan. Yet again, the natural world echoes the relationship dynamics vividly. The verse also presents the implicit societal rules in the contrasting behaviour of the lady and the courtesan, the former, characterised by patience and restraint, and the latter, by freedom and impulsiveness!

Tonight, Don Lemon will be on with Jimmy Kimmel’s low rated late night show, talking about his arrest... See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
It's Monday, February 2nd, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Federal judge upholds right of 4,000 Myanmar immigrants to stay A federal judge has ordered a temporary halt to the U.S. government's plan to terminate Temporary Protected Status for nationals of Myanmar living in the United States. That's a shift from the Trump administration's recent assessment that conditions in Myanmar have improved, reports International Christian Concern. The ruling interrupts a move that had signaled U.S. support for the junta's upcoming elections and marks a departure from the administration's controversial policy to end Temporary Protected Status for Burmese nationals. On January 23, U.S. District Judge Matthew Kennelly in Chicago ruled that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's decision to end Temporary Protected Status for Myanmar migrants lacked a legitimate basis and therefore cannot take effect while a legal challenge proceeds. The judge blocked the Trump administration from ending protections for roughly 4,000 Myanmar nationals and scheduled a hearing on February 6 on the merits of the case. In his written opinion, Judge Kennelly concluded that there was no genuine review of the conditions in Myanmar that underpin the decision and that the termination appeared more likely motivated by the administration's broader objective of curbing immigration and eliminating Temporary Protected Status generally, rather than by any evidence that conditions back home have materially improved. According to Open Doors, Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, is the 14th most oppressive country worldwide for Christians. DOJ released 3 million pages, 180,000 images, 2,000 videos of Epstein files The Department of Justice announced the release of millions of new pages from the files of the late sexual predator and human trafficker Jeffrey Epstein on Friday, reports The Blaze. In a press conference, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche explained the details. BLANCHE: “Today, we are producing more than 3 million pages, including more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images. Just a quick note about the videos and images. “The 2,000 videos and 180,000 images are not all videos and images taken by Mr. Epstein or someone around him. They include large quantities of commercial p*rnography and images that were seized from Epstein's devices, but which he did not take, or that someone around him did not take. We're releasing more than 3 million pages today, and not the 6 million pages that we collected. “I want to address what we didn't produce. The categories of documents withheld include those permitted under the Act to be withheld, files that contain personally identified information of victims or victims' personal and medical files and similar files, the disclosure of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy. Any depiction of child p*rnography was obviously excluded. Anything that would jeopardize an active federal investigation. And finally, anything that depicts or contain images of death, physical abuse or injury also was not produced. “To protect victims, we redacted every woman depicted in any image or video, with the exception of Ms. [Ghislaine] Maxwell. We did not redact images of any men.” Ecclesiastes 12:14 says, “God shall bring every deed into judgment, including every secret thing, whether it be good or whether it be evil.” Deputy Attorney General Blanche also said that the White House had no involvement in the review of the latest documents. He added, "They had no oversight over this review. They did not tell this department how to do our review, what to look for, what to redact, or what to not redact." Dept. of Justice arrested former CNN anchor Don Lemon Former CNN anchor Don Lemon was arrested by federal authorities and charged with federal civil rights crimes in connection with a protest at a Minnesota church service last month, reports NBC News. Demonstrators gathered at the service because one of its pastors, David Easterwood, allegedly works for Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The protesters said Easterwood is the acting director of an ICE field office in St. Paul. In a Friday post on X, Attorney General Pam Bondi said Lemon, age 59, and three others — Trahern Crews, Georgia Fort and Jamael Lundy — were arrested "in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota." The Department of Homeland Security said that Lemon was charged with conspiracy and interfering with the First Amendment rights of worshipers. Cities Church Lead Pastor Jonathan Parnell said, “We are grateful that the Department of Justice acted swiftly to protect Cities Church so that we can continue to faithfully live out the church's mission to worship Jesus and make Him known.” Lemon's attorney, Abbe Lowell, said that Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy Awards. According to the Department of Homeland Security, the federal government has sent 3,000 federal immigration agents to the Twin Cities over the last two months and arrested more than 3,000 illegal immigrants. Trump selects new Federal Reserve Chairman On Friday, President Donald Trump unveiled his choice to succeed Jerome Powell as chairman of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. On Truth Social, the president wrote, “I am pleased to announce that I am nominating Kevin Warsh to be the Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.” He previously served on the Federal Reserve Board of Governors between 2006 and 2011. Appearing on CNBC, David Bahnsen, chief investment officer of The Bahnsen Group, said this. BAHNSEN: “He has the respect and credibility of the financial markets. I worked with him at Morgan Stanley. Thought very highly of him. Look, there was no person who was going to get this job who wasn't going to be cutting rates in the short term. However, I think longer term I believe he will be a credible candidate.” Bahnsen referred to Trump's desire to lower interest rates to spur further economic activity, which Powell has opposed. Disney+ expands R-rated movies by 2,200% The streaming platform Disney+ is expanding its so-called “mature” content library. Concerned Women for America reported that parents can expect more than a 2,200% increase in R-rated movies and more than an 840% increase in TV-MA-rated shows available on the platform, reports The Christian Post. Disney's streaming platform is adding new shows and movies as part of an integration with Hulu, with the change scheduled for February. Last Thursday, the conservative advocacy group Concerned Women for America reported that Disney+ will increase the number of R-rated movies available for streaming from 19 to over 439. And he number of shows with a TV-MA rating — meaning that the content is intended for allegedly “mature” audiences — on Disney+ will go from 45 to 425. Matthew 18:6 says, “But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea.” Florida church banned from worshipping And finally, Coastal Family Church in Flagler Beach, Florida, is pushing back against a Seventh Judicial Circuit Court judge's temporary injunction issued last Thursday, which bans it from holding worship services in a unit they purchased in a strip mall where property covenants prohibit large gatherings, reports The Christian Post. Circuit Judge Sandra Upchurch wrote that the church is “prohibited from allowing public assemblies put on by any entity to occur there.” Liberty Counsel, the Christian legal rights law firm representing the church, filed an appeal to the Fifth District Court of Appeals last Monday, arguing that the mall's ban on public gatherings “is an unconstitutional restriction on the First Amendment rights of speech, assembly, and religious exercise, and violates Florida law by preventing the church from using its own property to gather and worship.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, February 2nd, in the year of our Lord 2026.

In this episode, we perceive an attempt at persuading another, as portrayed in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 156, penned by Aavoor Moolankizhaar. The verse is situated amidst the lush fields of the ‘Marutham’ or ‘Farmlands landscape’ and talks about the wealth and faith in this domain. முரசுடைச் செல்வர் புரவிச் சூட்டும்மூட்டுறு கவரி தூக்கியன்ன,செழுஞ் செய் நெல்லின் சேயரிப் புனிற்றுக் கதிர்மூதா தின்றல் அஞ்சி, காவலர்பாகல் ஆய்கொடிப் பகன்றையொடு பரீஇ,காஞ்சியின் அகத்து, கரும்பு அருத்தி, யாக்கும்தீம் புனல் ஊர! திறவிதாகக்குவளை உண்கண் இவளும் யானும்கழனி ஆம்பல் முழுநெறிப் பைந் தழை,காயா ஞாயிற்றாக, தலைப்பெய,”பொய்தல் ஆடிப் பொலிக!” என வந்து,நின் நகாப் பிழைத்த தவறோ பெரும!கள்ளும் கண்ணியும் கையுறையாகநிலைக் கோட்டு வெள்ளை நால்செவிக் கிடாஅய்நிலைத்துறைக் கடவுட்கு உளப்பட ஓச்சி,தணி மருங்கு அறியாள், யாய் அழ,மணி மருள் மேனி பொன் நிறம் கொளலே? This is one of those rare songs where though the landscape is defined in one way, the theme tends in a totally different direction. Here, we listen to the confidante say these words to the man, when she brings over the lady for a tryst with him: “Appearing akin to the lifted yak-fur fans, fastened to heads of horses, belonging to wealthy lords with victorious drums, are the tender, red-streaked stalks of paddy in the fertile fields. Fearing that an old bull would feed on and ruin these stalks, guards pluck beautiful vines of bitter gourd along with the rattlepod, and using that, tie the bull to the trunk of a portia tree, and feed it sugarcane stems in your town, filled with sweet streams, O lord! When I had come with her, who has exquisite kohl-streaked eyes, akin to lush blue lilies, adorned in attires of green leaves and flawless flowers of field lilies, when the sun was not scorching, so that we could play in the pond and delight, we made the mistake of smiling at you, O lord! Even after offering toddy and garlands, along with a white male goat with hanging ears and sturdy horns as sacrifice, to the god who guards the river shore, with the right chants from the heart, seeing no relief whatever, her mother cries, as her sapphire-hued skin continues to be covered in a golden hue!” Let’s take a stroll on the banks of the town’s fields and river shore and learn more! The confidante starts by describing the man’s fertile farm town, and to do that, she compares the lush paddy crop to the uplifted yak-fur fans tied to the horses of the wealthy. These yak-fur fans were quite the rage in the ancient world, known by the Tamil term ‘Saamaram’, and it was also used as a manual fan in the royal courts. Returning, we see how the paddy stalks look lush and tender, and no doubt, wanting to protect their crop, fearing that the old cow in their farm would run amok and ruin the stalks, the guards tie up the animal using cords of bitter gourd and rattlepod and distract it with sugarcane stalks. After that description of the man’s rich riverine town, the confidante turns to the past and declares the lady and herself had made the mistake of smiling at the man, when they had come to bathe in the pond, at a time when the sun was not raging yet. The confidante then ends with the explanation for this cryptic statement saying that the lady’s mother had done offerings to the river god with toddy, garlands and even a strong ram, but there seemed to be no respite to the golden-hued pallor spreading on the shining dark skin of the lady. While the lady was happy when the man came around, she was pining for him whenever he left, leading to the attack of pallor and the consequence of mother’s worry, implies the confidante. This statement about offering to a river god would remind us of the ‘Veriyattam’ scenes in the Kurinji landscape, where a girl’s problems were attributed to ‘God Murugu’ and he is appeased with offerings and prayer. In this landscape, a river God takes the role of ‘Murugu’. As in those situations we have seen many a time, God is of no help, when the cure is in the hands of the man. The confidante understands this well and by subtly revealing the situation at hand, she nudges the man to let go of the temporary trysting and choose the path of a permanent union with the lady. In that metaphor of tying the old cow and preventing it from feeding on the tender paddy stalks, the confidante places a metaphor for her hope that the man would bind the mouths of the slanderous townsfolk and offer them the sweet sugarcane of a happy wedding with the lady. Lands may change, Gods may change, yet the confidante remains the steadfast friend who knows what’s what and what needs to be done for the happiness of all concerned! If you ask me, a friend like that is the true God in one’s life!
On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we break down a massive new wave of Marvel and DC rumors that could seriously reshape the future of some of the biggest franchises in Hollywood. From shocking reports about Marvel Studios canceling the long-troubled Blade solo movie to claims that Mahershala Ali's Daywalker may instead debut as part of a Midnight Sons team-up, there is a lot to unpack for MCU fans. We also dive into a surprising new direction for The Batman – Part II, where new rumors suggest the sequel could shift focus away from Harvey Dent and instead introduce Gilda Dent as a potential female Two-Face. What would that mean for Matt Reeves' Gotham and the tone of the sequel? On the Marvel side, the Spider-Man: Brand New Day rumor mill is heating up again, with Sadie Sink's name being strongly linked to Jean Grey in the MCU. Could Marvel be setting the stage for the X-Men through Peter Parker's next chapter? Plus, we discuss new Man of Tomorrow rumors, including a mysterious spoiler reference and the possibility of Wonder Woman appearing in the DCU's Superman film. How much of this is setup for the wider DC Universe, and what does it tell us about James Gunn's long-term plan? Kristian Harloff and the crew break down what's real, what's rumor, and what it all means for Marvel and DC fans moving forward.

In this episode, we perceive the eagerness of a man to return home, as depicted in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 154, penned by Pothumpil Pullaalankanniyaar. The verse is situated amidst the falling jasmines and blooming glory-lilies of the ‘Mullai’ or ‘Forest landscape’ and etches the vibrant beauty of a land after the rains. படு மழை பொழிந்த பயம் மிகு புறவின்நெடு நீர் அவல பகுவாய்த் தேரைசிறு பல் இயத்தின் நெடு நெறிக் கறங்க,குறும் புதற் பிடவின் நெடுங் கால் அலரிசெந் நிலமருங்கின் நுண் அயிர் வரிப்ப,வெஞ் சின அரவின் பை அணந்தன்னதண் கமழ் கோடல் தாது பிணி அவிழ,திரி மருப்பு இரலை தெள் அறல் பருகிக்காமர் துணையொடு ஏமுற வதிய,காடு கவின் பெற்ற தண் பதப் பெரு வழி;ஓடுபரி மெலியாக் கொய்சுவற் புரவித்தாள் தாழ் தார் மணி தயங்குபு இயம்பஊர்மதி வலவ! தேரே சீர் மிகுபுநம் வயிற் புரிந்த கொள்கைஅம் மா அரிவையைத் துன்னுகம், விரைந்தே. This trip to the forests is based on the familiar theme of a man returning after completing his mission and here, we hear the man say these words to his charioteer, on his way back home to the lady: “In the fertile forests, where heavy rains have poured, from the deep pools of water, toads with mouths wide open, croak aloud, akin to many small musical instruments along those long paths; Long-stemmed wild jasmine buds from short bushes drop down on the fine sand of red ground beneath and decorate it with artistic patterns; Appearing akin to furious snakes, which have their hoods raised, cool and fragrant glory-lilies spread open their tight, pollen-filled buds; The male deer with twisted antlers relishes the clear waters and then resides with joy along with its desirable mate; Such is the cool, great road, surrounded by the blessed beauty of the forest. O charioteer! Always speeding and never slowing, ride on the horses with trimmed manes, making bells tied low on their feet to sway and resound, and hasten the chariot towards the abode of that beautiful, dark-skinned lady, who has an esteemed principle of perfect love for me!” Time to speed along with the man on those ancient roads! The man starts by depicting the world around him in much detail. He talks of the rain-washed forests and the consequence of toads croaking like musical instruments from those deep pools of water. Then his eyes fall on the wild jasmine flowers that have dropped down from their bushes and he admires the decorations these flowers make on the red soil of the forest, no doubt reminding him of the ‘kolam’ or patterns drawn in front of homes with rice powder. From these gentle flowers, he turns to a fiery, floral neighbour, a radiant glory-lily, which seems to him like a furious snake, staring with its hood, raised high. After this, he takes in a male deer with twisted antlers and sees the animal feeding on clear waters and then lying down with its loveable mate. The man summarises all these aspects by remarking on the exquisite beauty of the forest after the rains. He concludes by asking his charioteer to speed on the horses and ride their chariot swiftly to the lady, who waits with much love for the man! Here, we see the man declare how beautiful the outer world had turned because of the shower of rains, and at the same time, he understands this is no time to linger and celebrate this beauty, for someone awaits him, with much yearning and distress, as the season of his promised return had arrived. The man seems to recharge himself with an observation of his environment and with the rejuvenation gained, turns his attention to his ultimate destination. To me, this seems to say that no matter how far we want to go, we have to begin right where we are, drawing our strength and focus from the here and now!

Show Notes:In this week's episode, I talk with castmates Kaye Tuckerman and Bradley Lewis about their backgrounds in horror and their experience in the new musical adaptation of the Australian mystery film Picnic at Hanging Rock currently playing in New York City. Kaye explains again what it's like to visit Hanging Rock in Australia, Bradley tells me how he got into horror later in life, and how the rock score adds to the story. Bradley, who is of Native American heritage, told me about a site in New Mexico that's similar to Hanging Rock, what his heritage brings to his character, and we also talk about song lines, representation, and the mystery of the land in his heritage, as well as that of Hanging Rock.Socials & Where to Buy Tickets:Kaye's IG: https://www.instagram.com/kayetuckerman/ Bradley's Website: https://bradley-lewis.com/ Buy tickets to Picnic at Hanging Rock through 1/17: https://www.picnicthemusical.com/Who's There?

Full disclosure time here on the READING MCCARTHY podcast. When Ridley Scott's film The Counselor arrived in theaters with its very own shiny McCarthy screenplay, I was underwhelmed. We'd been waiting for over half a decade for The Passenger and had no idea we'd be almost another ten years waiting for that project (and of course we had no concept of Stella Maris at the time). I found interesting elements in the film but didn't think it held together. But people smarter than me (such as my three guests in this program) convinced me to return to it it and here we are in a 2-parter. Appearing for the first time is Dr. Russell Hillier, whose consideration of the screenplay sparked my interest in returning for another bout: he is Professor of English at Providence College, Rhode Island. He is the author of two books, Milton's Messiah (Oxford University Press, 2011) and Morality in Cormac McCarthy's Fiction: Souls at Hazard (Palgrave Macmillan, 2017), and he is coeditor of Combined Lights: Comparative Essays on the Writings of John Donne and George Herbert (University of Delaware Press, 2021). Additionally, he has published articles on many authors in many journals. Returning as well is the excellent Dr. Dianne Luce. She is the author of Reading The World. Cormac McCarthy's Tennessee Period, University of South Carolina Press, 2009, and Embracing Vocation: Cormac McCarthy's Writing Life, 1959-1974, U South Carolina Press 2023. She is currently working on a second volume of Cormac McCarthy's Writing Life, covering 1974-1985. Bryan Giemza holds a Ph.D. and J.D. and is the Provost's Fellow for Outreach and Engagement in the Honors College at Texas Tech University. His books include Irish Catholic Writers and the Invention of the American South as well as Images of Depression-Era Louisiana: The FSA Photographs of Ben Shahn, Russell Lee, and Marion Post Wolcott (2017). His book Science and Literature in Cormac McCarthy's Expanding Worlds was published by Bloomsbury in 2023. As always, listeners are warned: there be spoilers here. Film trailer excerpts from The Counselor, directed by Ridley Scott, distributed by 20th Century Fox, 2013.

It's Monday, December 15th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus World's 5 Communist countries are cracking down on Christians Governments in the world's five remaining Communist countries are intensifying control over Christian churches, reports International Christian Concern. Churches are facing growing legal, financial and operational restrictions under regimes in China, Cuba, Laos, North Korea and Vietnam. Authorities in China require churches to register with the state and operate under a system called Sinicization, which mandates that sermons and practices incorporate Chinese cultural elements and Communist Party ideology, In Cuba, Christian groups are also legally required to register with the government, though new registrations are seldom granted. Individuals receiving foreign funding for church-related activities may be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison under Cuban law. Christian groups in Laos must also register with the government and seek prior approval for nearly all activities. A 2023 U.S. State Department report said churches must obtain permission for services, gatherings, travel of clergy, construction of worship spaces, and distribution of religious materials. In North Korea, churches are allowed only as tightly regulated institutions that serve the regime's image abroad. North Korean citizens are expected to report anyone found engaging in religious practices outside these state-run settings or in possession of Christian materials like Bibles. Unauthorized religious activity is met with harsh penalties, including imprisonment or forced labor. Vietnam also enforces mandatory registration for Christians and reserves the right to intervene in church finances and operations. A 2024 Vietnamese law, known as Decree 95, grants the government authority to demand financial records from churches and to suspend their activities without citing specific violations. Authorities in Vietnam have detained individuals and restricted congregations that fail to comply. Galatians 6:9 promises, “ Let us not grow weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we do not faint.” The $1 billion fraud of the Somalis in Minnesota Federal investigators have uncovered and charged dozens of people in Minnesota — most of Somali, African descent — in a series of major public-benefits fraud schemes which cost the American taxpayers $1 billion, reports Fox. These schemes include two primary issues. First, a nonprofit named Feeding Our Future claimed federal reimbursements for feeding children during the pandemic but is accused of taking hundreds of millions in funds for few or no meals. And second, there was Medicaid fraud in autism care and housing support. Prosecutors say large and rapidly growing payments to providers for autism therapy and Housing Stabilization Services were fraudulent, with fake clients and claims submitted. Appearing on Fox News with Laura Ingraham, Stephen Miller, White House Deputy Chief of Staff for policy, said this. MILLER: “This could very well end up being the greatest financial fraud scandal in American history.” Republican Mike Lindell running for Minnesota Governor Speaking of Minnesota, where Democratic Governor Tim Walz, has embarrassed his state nationally as the brief-lived Vice Presidential pick of Kamala Harris, MyPillow founder and CEO Mike Lindell announced his candidacy for Minnesota's 2026 gubernatorial race last Thursday, reports The Christian Post. The 64-year-old Lindell posted on social media. "After prayerful consideration and hearing from so many of you across our great state, I've made the decision to enter the 2026 gubernatorial race.” LINDELL: “Together, we will restore respect for law and order. If you are here illegally, now's the time to leave, or you're going to be sent back where you came from.” Governor Walz is running for his third consecutive four-year term. 2 dead, 8 injured in shooting at Brown University On Saturday evening, an active shooter killed two people and seriously injured eight others at Brown University campus where a male, dressed in black, opened fire inside a building on campus, reports the Providence Journal. The Ivy League college in Providence, Rhode Island was in lockdown as the suspected gunman remained at large following the shooting. Dick Van Dyke: “I have no idea” what happens when we die In an interview with ABC's Nightline with Dick Van Dyke, who just turned 100, Chris Connelly asked about loss and death. CONNELLY: “How have you dealt with loss in your life, when you lose somebody close to you? How have you rebounded from something like that?” VAN DYKE: “I don't know. You know, I lost my brother and my eldest daughter. Both committed suicide because of pain, and my reaction was anger, because I just think there were two deaths that didn't have to happen because they were, other than that, very healthy, except for pain.” CONNELLY: “Have you ever thought about death?” VAN DYKE: “I do now. I think most people don't, but when you get up around 100, it's a fact that you have to face. You know, it could happen any day.” CONNELLY: “What do you think happens when we die?” VAN DYKE: “I have no idea. I think some people are afraid of death because they think you're aware of it. They can say, ‘Oh, darn, I'm dead.' But, you know, you're gone; you don't exist anymore. No, death doesn't really frighten me, although I like a lot more life.” Hebrews 9:27 says, “People are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment.” Gift of tiny home reunites veteran with his 2-year-old daughter And finally, when his 2-year-old daughter Majesty fell into the foster care system, a U.S. Navy veteran faced a significant barrier in his fight to assert custody: He did not have a permanent address, reports Good News Network. At that point, Tim had gotten his life back on track after a struggle with substance use, but his group living arrangement in that program wasn't designed for children. He said, “I just remember thinking: ‘How can I rescue my daughter?'” Providentially, a tiny blue home became available at Veterans Community Project, a nonprofit village that help residents regain parental rights of their children. Soon after, he got full custody and moved to a family unit complete with a bunk bed fit for a toddler. The key moment in Tim's transformation was the rediscovery of his Christian faith and his willingness to admit he needed help. He said, “The opposite of addiction is connection—and that's what I found.” At the rehab center, he remembers feeling “like Scrooge in A Christmas Carol.” SCROOGE AFTER WAKING FROM DREAM ON CHRISTMAS DAY: “I must dress myself. So much to do. I must not lose any time. I am as light as a feather. (laughs) I'm as happy as an angel. (laughs) I am as a merry as a schoolboy. (laughs) I'm as giddy as a drunken man. (laughs) Merry Christmas to everyone and a happy new year!” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, December 15th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

This week, Pastor John continued our Christmas Grace series with a teaching from Titus 2, reminding us that Christmas is the story of grace appearing in the person of Jesus. In Christ, God's grace came near to redeem us, reshape us, and give us lasting hope. This appearing grace not only saves us but makes us God's own people, stirring our hearts toward lives marked by gratitude and good works.
Scripture Reference: Ephesians 6:10-24 Paul ends his letter by reminding his audience that they are in a fight. But it’s a fight not against not flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces of evil. Paul has already reminded the Ephesians that Christ is seated in the heavenly places above all rule and authority and power and dominion (1:20-21), and now Paul shows us how the work of Christ enables the church to stand against the devil who always wants darkness, death, and division.

Bobbie BrownTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Bobbie Brown. Bobbie first gained notoriety as a 'video vixen' in rock music videos on MTV. Appearing in videos for the bands Hurricane, Great White, and Warrant. In this episode, we chat about how she grew up in Baton Rouge, dreaming of being a model, and then moved to Los Angeles to make those dreams come true. We cover her time on Star Search, where she was the winningest contestant in any category, in the history of the show. Then we talk about how she got into performing in music videos and eventually meeting and marrying the lead singer of Warrant, Jani Lane. Along the way, we discuss substance abuse, the music career that never was, her auditions for Scorsese, and Spielberg, and working with Arnold Schwarzenegger, her relationship with Tommy Lee, meeting OJ Simpson, and so much more! Naturally we talk about her autobiography (Dirty Rocker Boys), and the new memoir that she is working on currently. Bobbie was part of the cast of the reality show 'Ex Wives of Rock' which lasted 4 seasons, and we do talk a bit about that as well. More recently, during Covid, Bobbie had her identity stolen, her money stolen, and through all of this led her to have a life changing Holy experience. Of course, we touched on those experiences and how they left her a changed woman. Bobbie is starting to tour the country attending conventions. Catch her at a con near you and tell her you heard her on Fascination Street Podcast.
What sparks fly at a holiday get together in Dublin? Hopefully the good kind…James Joyce, today on The Classic Tales Podcast. Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening. Have you listened to the Fu-Manchu trilogy? How about the John Carter Trilogy? How about all 51 hours of The Count of Monte Cristo? With the audiobook library card, you can listen to all this and more for only $9.99 a month. Unlimited downloads and streaming of the entire Classic Tales Library. No limits, just is heavily curated, well produced audio, so you get a great listen every time. Go to audiobooklibrarycard.com or follow the link in the show notes. Today's story is considered one of the great short stories of English literature. Appearing as the final tale in his short story collection, Dubliners, James Joyce builds the complex atmosphere of a Holiday dance in Dublin. One thing to look out for is how the point of view of the narrative changes constantly, almost like it's a living thing. The use of phrasing is also noteworthy, sometimes sharp and staccato, and sometimes smooth and flowing. It's as though the language itself has a tempo, texture, and pitch all its own. As though the story were a musical piece in and of itself. Hopefully this becomes even clearer in an audio format. I hope you like it.
