Christina Hello, everyone, I'm Christina Darnell, the managing editor of MinistryWatch. Welcome to the MinistryWatch podcast. In today's extra episode, I talk with Warren Smith about some news items that are slightly (even significantly) outside of our normal charity and philanthropy “beat.” So, Warren, what's up first? Warren William Bennett famously said, “The plural of anecdotes is not data.” Journalists who write about religion often forget that reality. Christina The latest example came from Carson Daly of the Today Show. He wants us to believe that young people are packing Catholic Churches, and they are leading a Catholic resurgence in this country. But you're not buying it. Warren I'm not. The data tell a different story. I turned to the 2023–24 Pew Research Center Religious Landscape Study, based on nearly 37,000 randomly selected American adults, for a reality check. Among its findings: About 19 percent of U.S. adults identify as Catholic, unchanged since 2014 — but well below historical levels. Even more telling: 43 percent of Americans raised Catholic no longer identify as Catholic. Only 1.5 percent of American adults have become Catholic after being raised in another religion or with no religion. Catholics have experienced the largest net losses of any major Christian tradition through religious switching. Christina What about young people? That seemed to be the focus of the Carson Daly piece. Warren It was, but even among young people, the data don't support that conclusion. Among Americans ages 18–24, 12 percent have left Catholicism, while only 1 percent have converted into it. Pew concluded there is “no clear evidence” of a nationwide religious revival among young adults. Christina Why has this revival narrative been so persistent. We've been seeing it in the Protestant church as well. Warren Journalists want to find unusual stories. The slow secularization of religion over the past 50 years is not unusual. It's been told, and journalists are looking for a new story. As the old saying, “Dog bites man” is not a story. “Man bites dog” is a story. As for the Catholic resurgence story? Well, to torture the metaphor: “That dog won't hunt.” Carson Daly might be able to find a parish whose young adult Mass grows from 50 to 400 people, but that does not make up for the thousands of parishes experiencing gradual (and sometimes significant) decline. Christina Years ago, David Letterman had a routine that he called “Stupid Pet Tricks.” The first story we did, plus the next one, might qualify this episode of the podcast for its own “Stupid Media Tricks” segment. Warren You're right. This week saw another significant media story that caused me to wonder. In this case, veteran National Public Radio Supreme Court reporter Nina Totenberg wrote a story that Justice Samuel Alito had retired. Christina And, to be clear, Justice Alito has not retired. Warren That's right. But the story that he had retired made it through NPR's editing process and onto the website before someone discovered the mistake. And, of course, if it makes it to one website, the algorithms soon have it everywhere. Christina About an hour after publication, NPR retracted the story, issued a correction, and apologized. But the damage had been done. Warren To be fair, the damage was not severe – except, perhaps, to the credibility of NPR. But it does provide a lesson in how modern media work. Charlie Warzel, writing for The Atlantic, does a fascinating post-mortem on the episode, saying the error highlights several habits of modern journalism that are pathological. Among them: “That a breakneck news cycle is forcing even the best reporters and editors to move too fast, that modern beat reporting itself has become too consumed with being first to report stories.” Warzel's story is a smart look at how the journalistic sausage is made. I recommend it. You can find a link in today's show notes. Christina Our next story is also a media story, of sorts. Warren I had not thought of it that way, but I think you're right. Our friend Joseph Slife forwarded me a story that Michigan's Cornerstone University was offering a degree that could be completed “100%” on a smartphone. Christina Warren, did you check the date on that story. Are you sure it's not an April Fools Day prank? Warren I did check, because that was my first thought. Alas, it is not. According to The College Fix, “Cornerstone University, located in Grand Rapids, is offering an associate degree and bachelor's degree in strategic business management along with a master's in organizational leadership through its new program. Students pay a fixed rate of $2,400 per four-month term or $3,750 for graduate level work. The intended audience is working adults.” Christina That's pretty cheap, and – as a working adult – I couldn't imagine trying to get to a nearby college a couple of nights a week for classes. Warren I get that. 100 percent. I am not a Luddite. I use my iPhone for a lot of things – including learning. YouTube videos have helped me learn new licks on the guitar, have helped me repair my toilet, and have helped me gain new insights into the human condition. Christina But learning via iPhone is a different experience than face-to-face, in classroom learning. Warren That's exactly right. Especially from a wise and well-qualified teacher, in a community with other learners who are grappling with the same ideas — both in class, but also around the dinner table in the dining hall. Christina So what you're saying is that virtual learning is not worthless. It is just different. Warren I do not oppose colleges offering programs virtually, but to offer accredited degrees that carry all the prestige and credentialing power of an in-person degree…well…that is just bearing false witness. Christina Let's conclude today with news that the Texas State Board of Education passed a new required reading list that includes Bible passages. Warren On Friday, June 26, the Republican-controlled board voted 9-5-1 to approve a first-of-its-kind list that will affect more than 5 million public school students. Required readings for younger students include illustrated Old Testament stories such as Noah's Ark and David and Goliath. By upper elementary school, students read New Testament passages about Jesus' teachings and parables. Middle school and high school lessons pair scriptural themes with classic literature. Christina Most Christian groups are praising this decision. But you say…not so fast. Warren I will have to say that net-net I am glad they are reading the Bible in the classroom. You simply cannot understand most of Western literature – from Dante to Shakespeare to Faulkner to Eliot – without some biblical literacy. And I know that there are a lot of great public school teachers who will handle these texts with care and respect. Christina I sense a big fat…however…coming on. Warren Ha. So I'll say it. However… I do wonder what will happen when you put scripture into the hands of militantly secularized teachers, and you give them a platform to air their grievances. They may be forced to read the bible, but what if the teacher spends the rest of the class presenting arguments for its unreliability? Christina So are you opposed to reading the Bible in classrooms? Warren Absolutely not. I'm very much in favor of it, but I do wonder how it's going to be taught. I would recommend that parents in Texas remain vigilant. Time will tell whether this was a positive innovation for the classroom, or one full of unintended consequences. Until then, though, I know that “God's word will not return void.” So, I trust that the positive impact of scripture reading will be greater than any efforts to undermine it.

The hosts of the Lutheran Ladies Lounge long believed there was no podcast quite like theirs ... until they first met their fictional doppelgängers at the Lutheran Ladies Aid Brigade on April Fools Day, 2022. In this week's all-new parody episode, Katie Schuermann's madcap cast of characters (inspired by the people and places of her Anthems of Zion novels) is back, and the laughs are bigger than ever. Join “Candice,” “Arlene,” “Rebecca,” “Beverly,” and “Nettie” — along with cameo appearances by Lauren Braaten and Adriane Heins — as they chitchat, chuckle, and bicker over quilt squares, BMIs, ice cream, surviving menopause, and more. Cast of characters: Sarah: “Rebecca Jones” Erin: “Mrs. Arlene Scheinberg” Rachel: “Candice Bradbury” Bri Gerzevske: “Beverly Davis” Katie Schuermann: “Nettie Schmidt” Lauren Braaten: herself Adriane Heins: herself This episode was written by Katie Schuermann and is a work of fiction.

The Members Bill was drawn from the so-called biscuit tin in 2024 and passed it's first reading on - appropriately perhaps - April Fools Day this year.
From surviving Muffy St. John's prank in “April Fool's Day” to battling a vengeful trickster in “Leprechaun,” Ken Olandt has made his mark in the horror genre — alongside some popular leading ladies. Tune in to hear all about making these two memorable horror films, what it was like sharing the screen with both Amy Steel and Jennifer Aniston, and of course we had to ask about appearing as male stripper, Larry Kazamias, in 1987's “Summer School.”
Jon and Kurt decided to capitalize on the fact that they recorded this episode in April and put out a topical discussion about pranks. They found historical jokes centuries old that fooled many middle agers (not someone in their 50s, but someone who lived centuries ago) and some that got the masses hook line and sinker in the 20th century. And lots in between. Give a listen and get inspired for the next April Fools Day. Maybe you will find one worth repeating (but we advise against trotting out “War of the Worlds” again).
Dan and Brian celebrate their cherished annual April Fools Day episode by each selecting a not-quite-a-film, and each has brought a source of their own joy. Dan has forced Brian to play the 2007 Popcap game Peggle, which has sparked in Brian some compulsions and mixed emotions. Brian, meanwhile, shares with Dan a training video parody he saw in German class in high school. Join as they discuss their varying thoughts on video games, bliss, beskewerment, and life's different shades of happiness.

In this episode the boys get their pranks on with Josh's pick the overlooked April Fools Day flick "Killer Party" from 1986. Besides shooting the shit about prince and obscure 80's films in this episode, the FM3 may have stumbled truly onto a hidden gem, or a possible diamond in the rough. From the jump things are looking very promising, and any horror film that kicks off this way has gotta be good, right?! Well Jef, Josh and Brian will leave that decision up to you, the one thing that is for sure is that this weird little movie has charm and charm goes a long way for The Forever Midnight guys. Enjoy!
(First aired April 1st, 2024)-even though it's the middle of April, we want to remind you about April Fools' Day, and maybe throw a few jokes your way!

The MalloryBros podcast returns for the 298th episode, only 2 weeks away from the big 300! The Bros start by recapping Easter weekend and the festivities with the family. They speak about how Easter has changed over the years. They also speak on how April Fools Day which was this past week also, has also changed with the new age of misinformation. Jumping right in they talk about Kanye West's Album Success and Sofi Perfomance's that have marked a true “comeback” story for Kanye. This “Comeback” story leads the Bros to the next conversation about how Cancel Culture might not be what we've always thought it to be. Still there, but different and not TERMINAL. Terrance speaks on how Kanye's risks have always been big and so have his losses and compares fans to Cobra's being snake-charmed by Kanye's greatness. The Bros have a great conversation about the levels of fame and how they impact the levels of “cancellation” if there's still a thing. Next the Bros get a little personal talking about taking your own risks and being confident enough to see things through because you really don't know how things will age. They give a Realest 9 Patreon content update and dive into the recent news of Movie Tickets for DUNE 3 70MM already being sold out for its December release. The Bros discuss how the new hype of IMAX could be the cause for this and Terrance makes a point that IMAX filmgoing is becoming more and more a LUXURY. Terrell talks about the new images of the Earth that were released and how in this day of misinformation it's hard to trust them. Next up is the PART 2 that was heavily requested, RANKING MOVIE SEX SYMBOLS. The Bros rank 1 to 4

The fighter pilot shot down over Iran has now been compared to Jesus, his story to Easter, by Pete Hegseth; shot down on a Friday, hidden in a cave on Saturday and rescued on Sunday as the sun rose. This follows the continued comparison of President Trump to Jesus, including the Easter weekend false death reports, and Sunday resurrection story. Is everybody Jesus? Christian propaganda has made it to the moon, too, with Artemis II pilot Victor Glover broadcasting a message from Christ. Meanwhile, the White House is threatening to murder 92.4 million Iranians with nuclear weapons or neutron bombs, then profiting from a rebuild. It is unlikely this will happen, but it is likely the rhetoric and framing of such mass murder, ultimately to supposedly protect Israel, will lead to a major change in world dynamics: manufactured fake peace, perhaps encouraged by the coming “disclosure” of alien life implied by the UFO. In other words, the nuclear war fetish is as invisible as the alien threat and both will be used to create a new world order. We are watching history change in real time, from the 1979 Iran narrative, to the 2017 UFO revelation and the 2023 Gaza story, going all the way back to 1969 - we are now being told that we are reaching the moon for the first time from a mission launched on April Fools Day. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

From vengeful spirits and haunted houses to ghost trains, talking cats, and a lake monster with a taste for swimmers — these chilling tales will make you think twice before laughing off April Fools Day.IN THIS EPISODE: This episode was originally aired on April 1st, 2019. Many podcasts and YouTube channels today are taking advantage of the date on the calendar and playing practical jokes on their subscribers in celebration of All Fools Day.

Bedtime History: Inspirational Stories for Kids and Families
April Fools' Day is celebrated each year on April 1 and is known as a day for jokes, tricks, and playful surprises. People have enjoyed harmless pranks for hundreds of years, though historians are not completely sure how the tradition began.

Did we trick you?
Today's Headlines: Trump let a sanctioned Russian oil tanker through the Cuba blockade this weekend for "humanitarian reasons" — which raises the obvious question of what the three-month blockade that caused island-wide blackouts and hospital failures was for. When asked, Trump said he had "no problem" with countries sending oil to Cuba. The Iran war is getting darker by the day. Italy's defense minister said he can no longer sleep knowing what's coming. Trump threatened to destroy Iran's desalination plants — its drinking water infrastructure — on Monday morning. Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, and Bahrain are all lobbying Trump to keep the war going and potentially send ground troops, while Zelensky warned a prolonged Iran war is a massive gift to Russia — which, per Zelensky, shared drone warfare expertise with Iran AND provided satellite imagery of U.S. military bases days before Iran struck them. Oil hit $116 a barrel. Pope Leo XIV used his Palm Sunday address to say God does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war. Nobody in this administration was listening. On the home front, TSA workers are finally getting paid including backpay — turns out it only required that same pen Trump spent four minutes praising at his cabinet meeting. In other news, Kash Patel directed FBI agents to pull a decade-old investigative file on California Congressman Eric Swalwell, who is now running for governor, in what would be a highly unusual release of a file from an investigation that resulted in zero charges. The Supreme Court hears arguments on birthright citizenship tomorrow — April Fools Day. A federal judge blocked the Nexstar-Tegna merger that would have given one company control of local TV for 60% of U.S. households. OkCupid settled with the FTC after sharing the photos and location data of 3 million users with a facial recognition company — no fine, no admission of wrongdoing, just a pinky promise not to do it again. And three thieves stole a Matisse, a Renoir, and a Cézanne from an Italian museum in three minutes flat, abandoning a fourth painting when an alarm went off.
