Do you feel compelled to say “yes” to food during the holidays when someone offers you something that they made? Does saying “no” feel rude, or like some form of restriction brought on by diet culture? If you're like I used to be, you wrestle with wanting to say yes to people please, and to prove to yourself that you've broken all of your former dieting food rules. But you also want to be able to say no when you're not hungry for something, or when your body is telling you that it's not going to make you feel good. With the holidays upon us, you know that Aunt Judy will be at the table telling you to take a piece of her pecan pie that she made just for you because she knows it's your favorite.

Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that wants to make your heart go boom, boom, supernova girl (gender neutral). This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out to talk about why the classic 1999 Disney Channel Original Movie, Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century, Should've Been Gay. This movie was queer MAJOR, and if you were a kid in the 90s like us, phrases like “Cetus lupeedus!” are most likely still living rent free in your head. For those of you who have not seen Zenon, the story follows a 13 year old girl living on a space station in the year 2049 (which seemed a lot farther off in 1999). She is a chaotic baby gay from the second she shows up on screen and cannot help but get into constant trouble with her BF Nebula, played by the one and only Raven-Symoné. When she gets into a little too much trouble, she is exiled to Earth to live with her Aunt Judy and forced to trade her space stay gay life for a boring one with way too much gravity and nowhere near enough pleather. Between the space stay residents looking like they are perpetually at a gay nightclub, Proto Zoa's genderfluid frosted tips, the bisexual color scheme of space, Zenon's Earth boyfriend Greg's whole horse-girl dyke aesthetic, and Zenon and Nebula's totally lunarious love for one another, we are not sure how anyone ever thought this movie was for the str8s. We know one thing for sure, Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century Should've Been Gay.

In today's episode, we discuss the evolution of parenting. After polling a few of our friends and family, we have concluded that parenting doesn't get easier; it just gets different. And isn't that just life? We all enjoy different phases because WE are all different.Aunt Judy said it best when she told us, “Parenting is carrying the same load, just shifting it to the other hip.” Emily found a great resource for Moms and Moms-to-be on The Motherly Collective. We also talk about Plates, Napkin Folding, and Place Settings. And how come there isn't a napkin store? Coming soon from Nothin' But Fine….

PDP was once believed to be primarily a motor dysfunction disease, but it is now known to be multifaceted, encompassing cognitive and neuropsychiatric complications. PDP, which may include visual phenomena, hallucinations, and delusions, has been reported in up to 60% of patients and causes a substantial burden to the patient and their care partners. Early identification and treatment intervention are critical to lessening the patient's burden. The goal of this educational series is to convince clinicians that integrating routine screening for PDP for all patients with Parkinson's earlier in their journey is the right thing to do, to uncover PDP symptoms sooner, and to select an approved treatment option for PDP to improve patient outcomes and quality of life.

Cheryl said many times that "I'm done with that life, I'll never go back to it." But she did. When her Aunt Judy finds her in jail after two years of thinking she may be dead, she hopes and prays this is a second chance for her niece. Her sensitive, funny, bookworm niece. Her big sister's eldest daughter, the sister who has since died. And through writing White Flag: A Memoir (Legacy Book Press, 2022), bestselling author Judy L. Mandel finds that it didn't start with Cheryl, but that the tentacles of trauma explored in her first book Replacement Child have grabbed hold of her niece too. She struggles with being powerless to help Cheryl, and she discovers that transgenerational trauma and epigenetics may have started this avalanche of pain. She wonders why some people can recover from addiction, and others cannot. Why some are able to raise their white flag of surrender. Learn more about your ad choices.

If we're going to be living to be 100 years old, what needs to change in the workplace and in society and culture to make both those latter years more enjoyable for the person and beneficial for our communities?People today will live longer than ever before. We also have a quarter of the world under 14yrs of age. In the years ahead the workforce will be filled with people at the start and end of the career curve - a truly multigenerational workforce. Instead of creating problems in the workplace and an ultra-competitive job market, could it instead be an opportunity for us to work in different ways? Where mentorship, job sharing and collaboration provides a chance for everyone across the age band to learn from one another?These two women are using their experiences and their research to propose what new opportunities might look like in the future of work and the role of learning to support both continual innovation and wellbeing.Our guests today come from different backgrounds but have a common and perhaps vested interest in the opportunities available to those in the later stages of their careers. Emma Watson is a graduate of the Human Potential for the Digital Economy postgraduate certificate at Tech Futures Lab, and Judy Christie is the Communities Manager for The Mind Lab and Tech Futures Lab. Emma has worked in the commercial business sector for much of her career, with a large part in the information technology space in a range of strategy, operations and finance leadership roles.For some time, Emma has had an interest in age diversity in the workplace - both young and old. She saw the Human Potential for the Digital Economy programme as a chance to explore how we can ‘learn and earn for the hundred year life', and nurture age diversity as an opportunity for both innovation and wellbeing in society.Judy, sometimes known affectionately as ‘Aunt Judy', has spent a large part of her career in the education sector, but sees her role more about people and fostering potential in them. Judy is all for diversity, of all types, but has experienced first hand what it's like to be shut out because of her age. Now as our Communities Manager, Judy spends a most of her time connecting with our learners and alumni who have inspired her to continue her own learning journey. A graduate of the Digital Skills for the Workplace micro-credential, Judy is now seriously considering taking on the Master of Technological Futures.

Welcome to season 2, episode 33 of the Today is the Day Changemakers Podcast. This week my guest is Holly Fulger. Holly is an actress, writer, producer and founder, True Beauty Discovery.She began her acting career at the Great Lakes Shakespeare Festival, where she interned with Tom Hanks, with whom she has remained close friends. She moved to Los Angeles after living in Chicago for some time to work on television and film, Holly is best known for her roles in the Disney Channel Original Movie series, Zenon, Girl of the 21st Century, as Aunt Judy, and as Holly in the sitcom, Ellen. Being in the spotlight, Holly has experienced the good, the bad, and the misguided aspects of beauty in our culture. Unfortunately, as a young girl she dealt with bullying and shares more about her experience in this episode. Through wearing thick rimmed glasses, she watched as the world did not seem so kind during some of her teen years. Holly shares here that acting allowed her to express and access parts of herself that she couldn't do in the real world. Listen in to hear what she would tell that little girl now. She has written numerous articles on beauty and an article she wrote for iCNN caught the attention of a CNN producer who interviewed Holly and seven other women on their perception of beauty. She says that the most interesting part of this was listening to other women's stories and hearing how difficult it was for women to really say what is beautiful about themselves. So began her exploration into true beauty, creating the web series, Speaking of Beauty, and then The Hollywood Beauty Detective. In 2019, she founded the nonprofit, True Beauty Discovery. The mission is about empowering girls and women to understand that it is their individuality that makes them beautiful and powerful. Listen in to hear the incredible footprint that Holly would like to leave behind. On the next episode I am joined by one of my recurring co-hosts, Scott Chesney. Scott is known as the Commander in Change and is a sought-after world-renowned motivational speaker and Life Coach. Together, we interview his good friend, Nancy Romanyshyn. Nancy is the Director of Pay Strategy and Partner Success at Syndio. We talk about the important work that Nancy is doing to help companies embed workplace equity into their core business so that they can achieve enduring success. We also have some fun talking about Oreos. The question remains, are they brown or black? Scott and Nancy have some fun with this. Email your opinion to jodi@todayisthedayliveit.com.

Give Me That D: A Disney Channel Original Movie Breakdown Podcast
It's just family this week because it's GMTD's ONE YEAR BIRTHDAY!! Can you believe? And we are celebrating in style by chatting about one of our favorite women in the galaxy: Zenon! That's right! We're breaking down “Zenon: The Zequel.” From another Proto Zoa banger, to enemies becoming friends (looking at you, Margie), to a trek through the jungle, and even the involvement of the US military, this movie is doing it all! Zenon continues to leave wreckage in her wake but damnit if she doesn't always pull through! Aunt Judy is an alien conspiracy theorist and continues to be one of the best characters in any DCOM, while sadly Raven has been recast. RIP. All we know for sure is aliens are contacting Z with a lot of “zums” and that's DEFINITELY a word. Yeah, definitely. So buckle up for blast off, because we're taking you to space! Have fun!!!

When a family is referred to Child Protective Services, they're often treated a lot like criminals on parole. But, the administrative work required to keep their families together can actually make it even harder to parent successfully. Christa Moore says that our child welfare system should operate more like collaborative care and less like bureaucratic punishment. Plus: How does having a parent who is incarcerated affect young people as they get older? Heidi Williams is talking to 18 - 25 year olds whose parents were incarcerated at some point during their childhood. She found that many of them were extra-motivated to succeed and, particularly, to help younger siblings. Later in the show: George Mason University has a new farm lab. They're not planting flowers or vegetables–they're planting bodies. Mary Ellen O'Toole and Anthony Falsetti are professors in the Forensic Science Program at GMU and using their extensive careers uncovering crime to direct the new body farm. And: When you hear “organized crime” you might think Al Capone or Pablo Escobar. But what about Aunt Judy who gave you that fake Prada bag? Jay Albanese says that the average consumer should pay more attention to their own role in propping up organized crime. Albanese was named an Outstanding Faculty by the State Council for Higher Education for Virginia.

Enjoy the little things in life for someday you will realize they were the BIG things. When I was a kid, I dreamed of one day having a little hobby farm where I could have kids, dogs, cats, and critters of all kinds. But breeding was never in my vision of the future...unlike my Aunt Judy and her desire for a PAIR of hamsters. In this episode, we discuss the adventures she had as a child when her Uncle Lloyd gave her a male and a female hamster for Christmas. This resulted in an educational experience in animal husbandry, biological reproduction, and microeconomics.

If you're getting flustered by the news reports of another lockdown coming our way in 2022, are fed up with Aunt Judy telling the same old story at Christmas dinner while she downs her 3rd White Russian, or are secretly scheming how to trip your 3-year old nephew who's screaming in your ear and trying to jump on your dog, GOOD FOR YOU!
The dresser your mom gave you to "keep in the family", that couch your husband inherited when his dad died, the desk that Aunt Judy pressured you into taking so your grandma doesn't rollover in her grave. As honorable as it may seem to take hand me down furniture from the family, in doing so you may be bringing more harm than good to your home and the lives of everyone living in your home. From the emotional toll holding on to hand me downs can take on an individual and their families to Interfering with a child's sense of ownership in their bedrooms, hand me down furniture, if it's not loved and used can often bring discord in the home and strife in it's occupants lives.

Summer Break - Let's revisit and in case you missed it Life with My Idiot Family: A True Story of Survival, Courage & Justice over Childhood Sexual Abuse, Kathy Picard's story. 10 years of abuse by her stepfather. The Abuse and Staying Silent The abuse started when Kathy was 7 and lasted for 10 years. The grooming for the abuse took place at around the age of 5. Her abuser and rapist was her step-father, a person who she had been raised to believe was her father. He told her real bad things would happen if she told. At the age of 9 she told her grandmother who said' we don't talk about those things.' And at the age of 28 she told her Aunt Judy who believed her but didn't want to talk about it. Kathy promised her she wouldn't until her Aunt died. Upon her Aunt Judy's death, Kathy told everyone. Kathy wanted to make sure that if anything happened to her, he would be the first one they would look to.
The witches talk more about Ancestral Tarot by Nancy Hendrickson, Uncle Don, Lee, and Aunt Judy, 70s Sunroom renovations, beads, and peas to the face. Get fucked, Bob, we're moving on with our bullshit.

She had the courage to call him a rapist to his face in the courtroom. Kathy is now on a mission to educate children that it's okay to tell someone and keep telling until someone listens.

A frabjous day to you, lingual listeners! And welcome to this episode of An Assemblage of Grandiose and Bombastic Grandiloquents. It might be time to plug your nose, and light that strong smelling candle your Aunt Judy gave you for your birthday, even though you’re not really a fan of the scent. It’ll be better than what’s coming, because today’s word is: jumentous.Jumentous means ‘resembling horse’s urine’ or ‘smelling strongly like a beast of burden’. Ew! I know. But allow me to explain. It comes from the Latin ‘jumentum’, which the the Oxford English Dictionary explains as a ‘yoke-beast’, which in turn comes from ‘jugum’, meaning ‘yoke’. And that’s ‘yoke’ as in ‘a wooden crosspiece that is fastened over the necks of two animals and attached to the plough or cart that they are to pull’, not ‘yolk’ like ‘the yellow bit of an egg’. Stay with me, folks.Though this ‘yoke’ might be referring to oxen, the Oxford Latin Dictionary notes that in Roman times it usually meant horses or mules, not cattle. Similarly, the word ‘jument’, from the same source, could mean any beast of burden, but was most often applied to a horse or donkey. In French, ‘jument’ means ‘a mare’. And thus, we have jumentous, a way to tell someone, rather rudely and snobbily, that they smell like horse pee.The first known appearance of jumentous is found in a report of the symptoms of a sick person from the British Journal of Homoeopathy in 1801. It states: ‘No motion of the bowels; urine very scanty, red with a jumentous and lateritious sediment, also great thirst, great dryness of mouth and tongue, which were covered with a dirty white covering.’ You can’t say it’s a particularly desirable feature.Isn’t language wonderful?Written by Taylor Davidson, Read by Zane C WeberSubscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, or your podcatcher of choice.Find us on FACEBOOK or TWITTERBecome a Patron of That’s Not Canon Productions at Patreon!Email us at Grandiloquentspodcast@gmail.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
For this weekend's #QuarantineMovieNight, we step into the 1999 classic ZENON: GIRL OF THE 21ST CENTURY! We discuss fashion takes, the highest stakes for a 13 year old can handle, and why Aunt Judy needs to see a therapist! Plus we scrounge up the pandemic life to find something to make our Disney bones tingle in What's the D? The best way to support the show is by following us on Instagram or Twitter @TheDPodcast, and of course by leaving us a 5-star rating and review!
Morning glorious! The time has come for Toni and Ruben to share their lunarious thoughts on 1999's Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century. Joined by their graphic friend Lorraine, your hosts have some opinions to share, both major and minor. They'll cover the bizarre slang of the year 2049, the sex appeal of brushing horses, and the film's true heroine and feminist icon: Aunt Judy.
We’re hearing from my Aunt Judy and Uncle Ron, who in 1970, first left the Manitoba prairies for Ottawa, Canada’s capital and left for Australia one year later with the Federal Government. What followed was 34 years of long-term travel and over that time, a total of 12 moves: their postings would be anywhere from 2-4 years at a time, and ranged all corners of the earth including (in order): Ottawa, Australia, Cuba, Los Angeles, Edmonton Canada, Kuwait, Ottawa, Saskatoon Canada, Pittsburgh USA, Edmonton, Oslo Norway, Ottawa Canada, Ladysmith, Winnipeg.

They also drop some knowledge on listeners who are beginning in these areas just like your Aunt Judy after a few drinks. So grab yourself a cold glass of something good and jump into the conversation on Facebook at @Momswineoutpodcast. Cheers!
We talked about angry breakup songs this week, and Aunt Judy stopped by for a minute. We also dedicate this episode to Ollivander Duckfeet, the best boy.
This month, we both look to the past and to the future as we celebrate our first anniversary and review the rightfully popular Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century. Join us as we learn some future languages, explore the wonderful world of 2049 (which looks a lot like Earth in the 1990's with a few floating things and outfits leftover from Tomorrowland), and meet a man who is truly more an icon than a human.Luke messes up slang and had to record a segment in post. Emma recognizes a bad bitch and connects with a character on a spiritual level.Talking Points: Anniversary Head to Head, History with Z, Future Speak, Space Station Lilapsophobia, Smoking Weed In Space, There Are NO CAMERAS?, Getting Grounded, Aunt Judy, A Nice House-Ass, Independence Day, Loud Typing = Hacker, Horse Seduction, Mandatory Veganism, Multiple Hackers, A Realistic DCOM Kiss, Greg Destroys Margie, Protozoa: Your New Lord and Savior, and Some More Taglines
Yes, the "e" is missing on purpose since I went to see The Weeknd last weekend on a crazy weekend to see the Weeknd. What a fascinating fella, and we find that his newest tune is a rip off of our oldest tune. The anger builds as we talk about Cosby and the idiot who the Puerto Ricans want to honor that almost killed Aunt Judy. Oh yeah -- it's all here. The angrier - the better the podcast I always say.

Taylor's Celebration of Life on February 20, 2017, David and Julie did an excellent job writing and delivering a powerful eulogy in remembrance of their mom. They used quotes from family and friends on Social Media and cards to create a beautiful tribute for their mother. Both spoke, and they delivered it with grace and love. I posted the text of the eulogy below. The sub-headings below are the sections written and spoken by David and Julie. On the podcast, I used MercyMe's song "I can only imagine" as the final song because it was part of the eulogy. For information about Barb Taylor, please see Part 1 of this series. David Taylor Bobbie, Barb, mom, grandma, wife. These are just a few of the names people called you during your time on earth, but the truth is you were so much more, to more people than we can even list. You touched so many groups of people in your 66 years on earth, and though you may not know it you were a caretaker and mother to far more than the three of us. You were a loving woman full of deep compassion towards everyone who crossed your path. When someone passes, the typical response is that there are no words to describe how much you will be missed, but through social media those words are there, and we want to share them with you, Mom, and everyone who is here to celebrate your life. After pouring through memories, cards, emails, letters, and Facebook posts, we can sum up how everyone feels about you with their beautiful words of remembrance. "I love you Barb" - Nad Julie Domres That name is a little inside joke between mom and dad, but It is obvious that the first person we should talk about is dad. 48 years is a very long time to spend every waking moment with someone, and you and dad were the epitome of true love. Karen, David, and I have always looked up to both of you, and your solid foundation of marriage has given us a guide to how our marriages should look. I think we can truly say that you and dad were not only spouses but best friends. We know that dad is going to miss you more than anyone in this room, but don't worry mom, we will take care of him. David Taylor “True beauty bubbles up from the kindness of your heart, and reflects smiles onto those you love… you, my dearest Ya-Ya sister, were the definition of true beauty… and will be missed. But Grandma Jean needed our Ya-Ya love, and you brought that to her today. I am so lucky to have the family I do, and my Ya-ya sisters. We are all bound together and will always be here for you and your family. #chachayaya #yayasinheaven #missingyoudearly. – Love, Adriana Julie Domres So mom, we can’t talk about your life without talking about the importance of family. You always put family first and have taught us to do the same. In the last few weeks we have all spent a lot of time talking about the past, and we have learned so much about your life. We knew that you were born in Phoenix and that you moved around a lot as a child, but we had no idea that you attended 42 different schools before you were in 9th grade. Grandma and Grandpa truly lived a vagabond lifestyle, and you guys were along for the ride. You didn’t have a lot of money or material things as a little girl, but you always had your siblings. Uncle Donny, Aunt Patty, Aunt Mary, Aunt Jean, Aunt Judy, Aunt Karen, Jimmy, and your favorite cousin Jan… you were always there for each other. Jim was so lucky to have you as his guardian, and you handled that responsibility with grace. You loved him and raised him like one of your own. As Aunt Karen and I were sitting up with you in the middle of the night last week, Aunt Karen shared a lot of stories about your childhood. She said to me, “I never had many friends when I was little. But that’s OK, I never needed a friend, because I always had your Mom.” You were her best friend right up until the end. We never realized how tough it really was for you when you were young, because you always put on that beautiful smile and looked at the bright side of life. David Taylor “God puts people in your life for a reason. She took a chance on me and hired me to work in her shop. I am beyond blessed to have had the opportunity to be part of her life. She taught me so much and I will be forever grateful. And because of her, I have so many people that I can call my friends, my “flower shop family.” Barb, you fought a hard battle and now you have found peace. I am certain that you are having an amazing reunion. God has welcomed you in Heaven’s most beautiful garden. Love you always Barb.” – Love, Erica Julie Domres Because family always came first, instead of putting family in front of your friends you turned friends into family. To name a few of the many groups of people you have touched: Your St. Kevin’s friends and your Card Club, your “Flower Shop Family,” The Dakota Court Gang, all of our friends, your Army friends, and your high school friends. I don’t think you realize how many lives you have truly impacted. I know all of my friends consider you a second mom, and Karen and Dave’s friends can say the same. When you made a friend, they were a friend for life. David Taylor “My beautiful mom lost her battle with cancer today and went to be with the Lord. We are heartbroken and cannot imagine life without her, but will be strong the way she raised us, and make her proud. I love you mom.” – Love, Karen Julie Domres Mom, how do we put into words what you meant to us? How do we go on without you to guide us? Who are we going to call every day on our way home from work, and who is going to remind us how to make your delicious beef burgundy recipe? These are just some of the thoughts that are swirling around in our brains. I don’t think you ever realized how much we loved you mom. Do you know that when my boys and Abbey were little, they would rather be with you and Dad than anywhere? You were such a great Grandma, and Danny, Ryan and Abbey love you so much. We will be sure that Dave and Jenny’s future kids know what an amazing woman you were, and that Grandma Barb loves them and will always be watching over them. You taught us to be strong, you taught us to be compassionate, and above all, you taught us to love God. We will continue to do everything we can to make you proud. David Taylor Since we have been full of quotes today, we thought we would end with some song lyrics by MercyMe. I am not the musical talent in the family so I will read the lyrics. “Surrounded by your glory, what will my heart feel? Will I dance for you Jesus, or in awe of you be still? Will I stand in your presence, or to my knees will I fall; will I sing Hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all? I can only imagine. I can only imagine." Mom, we can only imagine what you are doing in Heaven. We are going to imagine you dancing for Jesus with your mom, your dad, Aunt Jean and all of our other family and friends, with Elvis Presley and Patsy Cline singing in the background. We can’t imagine what life on earth will be like without you, but we will envision the day we meet again in Heaven and all dance for Jesus together. We will forever hold you in our hearts. We will forever love you, Mom. Thoughts I am posting these words to stand as a tribute to Barb Taylor. The idea is that those who could not attend the funeral could hear me reading the eulogy. I hope that these words will comfort you in the future. It was difficult for me to record this. I recorded the eulogy a couple of times, but I went with the original recording because it was the best. I felt compelled to record this podcast in the hope that if one person benefits from this podcast, it was worth it. We love and miss you, Barb.

In this episode we have G-Lew in the house! Jeff and I talk about putting down old pets, we get Aunt Judy's perspective on Ep. 003 and Jeff's twin sister, Gabrielle joins us to talk about their father, who they've never met.
They watch him every night gushing about the goings on in the star-studded world they could only dream of living in. They’re addicted to the outrageous lives he lets them peer in on in the Real Housewives series he founded. And, they love that he’s such a fan of the St. Louis Cardinals, he named his dog after pitcher Michael Wacha. Andy Cohen is definitely many of St. Louisans’ favorite son. In this special edition of Maryville Talks Books, fans turn the table on the hometown boy turned talk show host for some outrageous moments including: pranks he’s pulled on his parents, who he would “marry, shag, kill,” and even a comment from his Aunt Judy.
It was over egg rolls and stir fry, when her Aunt Judy unexpectedly shared her travel stories with her teenage niece. Captivated and enthralled by her aunt's own personal legend, Regina Busse knew instantly that she wanted the same, to be more adventurous and have these stories of her own to share, just like her aunt. "The life she had lead and continued to lead sparked a fire inside me," says Regina. And so a 16-year old midwestern girl from Omaha, a small city in the heart of the state of Nebraska, planned a one month trip to Australia and bought that ticket. One month turned into a year, and Reggie turned into an explorer of an amazing world. Nine years later, she's still on the road. This transformation was so profound, she's now compelled to help others experience the same, to inspire those who aren't seeing the world to aspire to do so, to incorporate a love of travel into their lives, and promote the encouragement to do so within society. Let Reggie's message entrance you and her passion for inspiring others to share in similar experiences help you aspire to travel. Words from an Explorer "Aspire to travel. Take the proactive steps to reach your goals. Whatever you need to do, recognize your weakness and make them strengths. Then book that ticket." Tweet this! "Risk. Risk is huge.

Chris. Recalling the celebration of the Triduum, Fr. Chris said many different people come to the liturgies of the Triduum from outside the seminary. Scot was on the Dan Rea show on WBZ Radio last Friday to talk about Catholics Come Home and answer caller questions about the Church.At the seminary on Holy Thursday, they traditionally select the men in their 3rd year for the foot washing. On Saturday night, they had transitional deacon Quang Lee sing the Exsultet. Scot said they hope to have the transitional deacons on the shows leading up to the ordination next week.Scot said in this show, they plan to talk about the Holy Father's messages on Easter, the major ideas and themes. The messages are for everyone, not just those gathered in St. Peter's Square.**2nd segment:** Scot and Fr. Chris welcome Dr. David Franks back to the show. Last Saturday, the Holy Father's homily follows--as in every Easter Vigil Mass in the world--the service of light, the Exsultet, and the readings of Salvation History. He begins:>The liturgical celebration of the Easter Vigil makes use of two eloquent signs. First there is the fire that becomes light. As the procession makes its way through the church, shrouded in the darkness of the night, the light of the Paschal Candle becomes a wave of lights, and it speaks to us of Christ as the true morning star that never sets – the Risen Lord in whom light has conquered darkness. The second sign is water. On the one hand, it recalls the waters of the Red Sea, decline and death, the mystery of the Cross. But now it is presented to us as spring water, a life-giving element amid the dryness. Thus it becomes the image of the sacrament of baptism, through which we become sharers in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.Fr. Chris said it is a beautiful opening and it captures this image of light. "Lumen Christi, Deo gratias", "The Light of Christ, thanks be to God." You see not just the Paschal candle, but the lights of hundreds of followers. And then the image of water to welcome into the faith, new believers, to have it happen because Christ's side was pierced for them and us. It's also an image of the Church being born. The Church is more than just stone and mortar, it's living human souls.David said fire and water is also a symbol of the Holy Spirit. Fire and water can be lifegiving, but they can also be dangerous in the natural world. But in Jesus Christ, what can be destructive toward human good are lifted up and used for the good of humanity. Scot said they are basic elements of creation and capture our imagination.Scot said his 9- and 7-year-olds were struck by the third reading of Pharaoh's chariots being drowned in the Red Sea and asked if God was being mean. David said St. Paul points out to the Romans, we aren't talking about the eternal destination of the Egyptians, but the plan of liberation God has set in place. If we work with God then it is to our benefit, but if we array ourself against God, we should realize that no force of darkness can overcome the power of God's love.Fr. Chris said that as soon as the Paschal candle is illuminated, it shatters all darkness. It reminds us that the smallest candle can overcome all darkness. All Christians are called to be salt and light in the world. The light of Christ shatters sin and darkness once and for all.>The Church wishes to offer us a panoramic view of the whole trajectory of salvation history, starting with creation, passing through the election and the liberation of Israel to the testimony of the prophets by which this entire history is directed ever more clearly towards Jesus Christ. In the liturgical tradition all these readings were called prophecies. Even when they are not directly foretelling future events, they have a prophetic character, they show us the inner foundation and orientation of history. They cause creation and history to become transparent to what is essential. In this way they take us by the hand and lead us towards Christ, they show us the true Light.Fr. Chris said God is afoot, He is present in our world now. He is still calling us and unveiling His mystery to us. This past week, the Holy Father said there are three things if we want to be holy: the 10 commandments, the Sunday Mass, and daily prayer. Those 3 things coupled with God's grace can lead us to the path to sanctity. This unfolding of God's love for us continues for us today.David said God is on the move. This is what gives our lives a sense of mysterious promise. There is something powerful and good that is coming. Anytime we pray, God is on the move transforming our lives.Scot said he loves that he said the Church offers us in this reading a panoramic view of salvation history. Jesus was the fulfillment of promises made over a period of thousands of years. Fr. Chris said we are all on a trajectory toward heaven. We need to remind ourselves what our final end is. Fr. Corapi said in a homily that if we had a natural end, then it would be enough to be good enough. But we have a supernatural end and we must be more.The Holy Father then says the Creation account is included because "The sweep of history established by God reaches back to the origins, back to creation." David said the other world views in our culture would have us believe we don't come from a loving God, but a result of randomness. Is it a matter of God's loving directed plan for our lives? That's the claim of the Church.Fr. Chris said in Christoph Schoenborn's book ["Loving the Church"](http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0898706769/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=catholicnetrevie&linkCode=as2&camp=217145&creative=399349&creativeASIN=0898706769) where he refers to us as "creatures" which reminds us that we are God's creation. Ultimately, God does not need us, but He desires to share His love with us. There is one God who is worthy to be praised for the gift of life and creation. When you see a newborn child, you know there is nothing random about that at all.**3rd segment:** Continuing the Holy Father's homily. >The Sabbath is the seventh day of the week. After six days in which man in some sense participates in God's work of creation, the Sabbath is the day of rest. But something quite unprecedented happened in the nascent Church: the place of the Sabbath, the seventh day, was taken by the first day. As the day of the liturgical assembly, it is the day for encounter with God through Jesus Christ who as the Risen Lord encountered his followers on the first day, Sunday, after they had found the tomb empty. The structure of the week is overturned. No longer does it point towards the seventh day, as the time to participate in God's rest. It sets out from the first day as the day of encounter with the Risen Lord. This encounter happens afresh at every celebration of the Eucharist, when the Lord enters anew into the midst of his disciples and gives himself to them, allows himself, so to speak, to be touched by them, sits down at table with them. This change is utterly extraordinary, considering that the Sabbath, the seventh day seen as the day of encounter with God, is so profoundly rooted in the Old TestamentThe Holy Father is reminding us that because of what happened on Easter that Sunday becomes the central moment in our life as Christians. Every Sunday is a little Easter and we should be reminding ourselves that the centrality of our faith is rooted in Christ's death and resurrection.David said Pope Benedict is saying a radical shift should be noted here. There is nothing to account for such a radical change unless the resurrection is true. He's also saying that Christians don't exist on the same rhythm as the rest of the world. On the day of Christian rest, we don't lie down, but we get up to serve and love on another on a new level. Scot said we should be starting each week and each day in the presence of God. The wisdom of our Church is that we start the week this way and we should model our lives this way.Fr. Chris asked how we get out of bed in the morning and establish the rhythm of our day. And Sunday is the anchor for each person that establishes how we will live each week. When Pope Benedict talks about the centrality of the Sabbath becoming the first day, it shows the need to order our lives so that Sunday takes a priority for us. >We celebrate the definitive victory of the Creator and of his creation. We celebrate this day as the origin and the goal of our existence. We celebrate it because now, thanks to the risen Lord, it is definitively established that reason is stronger than unreason, truth stronger than lies, love stronger than death. We celebrate the first day because we know that the black line drawn across creation does not last for ever. We celebrate it because we know that those words from the end of the creation account have now been definitively fulfilled: “God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good” (Gen 1:31). Amen.Fr. Chris said Pope Benedict is reminding us that we have a lot to give and thanks and praise to the Lord for. We are sharing in the newness of life that only Easter can bring. If we die with Christ and live with Christ, we shall rise with Christ (St. Paul). David said the emphasis is on human suffering, that we remember that it is the Cross that Jesus has overcome. That "black line" has caused immense suffering the world. Pope Benedict said the suffering is real, but Jesus Christ has risen to today and everything is different. Scot said see how much good is brought out of love today because of Easter.**4th segment:** Now considering Pope Benedict's Urbi et Orbi message, delivered from the central window of St. Peter's Basilica overlooking St. Peter's Square. He does this once per year. Fr. Chris said it means "City and the World". It's a reminder that he is both Bishop of Rome, but also leader of the Catholic Church and speaking to every person of good will in the world. It's a powerful message. As soon as he finishes the Easter mass, he proclaims this message from the place where he was proclaimed as pope upon his election. He traditionally highlights his concerns and requests for prayer for the world. This location is only used for this purpose and for papal elections.>Right down to our own time – even in these days of advanced communications technology – the faith of Christians is based on that same news, on the testimony of those sisters and brothers who saw firstly the stone that had been rolled away from the empty tomb and then the mysterious messengers who testified that Jesus, the Crucified, was risen. And then Jesus himself, the Lord and Master, living and tangible, appeared to Mary Magdalene, to the two disciples on the road to Emmaus, and finally to all eleven, gathered in the Upper Room (cf. Mk 16:9-14).Fr. Chris said we do rely on the testimony of others that Christ has died and rise, but just as important is the witness of the martyrdom of those who died for preaching the Risen Christ. David said it is important that the Good News is passed on from one witness to another so that we are all taking part in God's plan of salvation. It is part of the plan of salvation that Christians testify to it and that it passed on from person to another.Scot said he loves that the Holy Father brought in modern communications, that witnessing can take place using all technologies and methods both old and new. We share the Good News in every way we communicate with others. Fr. Chris said that bringing children to Church, living the faith and sharing it with children, is part of that. All the technology doesn't matter if people aren't willing to tell others about the message of Christ.>The resurrection of Christ is not the fruit of speculation or mystical experience: it is an event which, while it surpasses history, nevertheless happens at a precise moment in history and leaves an indelible mark upon it. The light which dazzled the guards keeping watch over Jesus' tomb has traversed time and space. It is a different kind of light, a divine light, that has rent asunder the darkness of death and has brought to the world the splendour of God, the splendour of Truth and Goodness.David said that every time in our lives that something beautiful happens that is the light of Christ erupting into creation. That's what we want to communicate in a life of holiness. The more we love well, the more the light will enter the world.Fr. Chris said that because it is supernatural light, it permeates all darkness.Scot takes away from this the emphasis that this is a real historical event. Christ entered history, He really died, and He really rose from the dead.>“In your resurrection, O Christ, let heaven and earth rejoice.” To this summons to praise, which arises today from the heart of the Church, the “heavens” respond fully: the hosts of angels, saints and blessed souls join with one voice in our exultant song. In heaven all is peace and gladness. But alas, it is not so on earth! Here, in this world of ours, the Easter alleluia still contrasts with the cries and laments that arise from so many painful situations: deprivation, hunger, disease, war, violence. Yet it was for this that Christ died and rose again! He died on account of sin, including ours today, he rose for the redemption of history, including our own. So my message today is intended for everyone, and, as a prophetic proclamation, it is intended especially for peoples and communities who are undergoing a time of suffering, that the Risen Christ may open up for them the path of freedom, justice and peace.Fr. Chris said here you see the contrast of the pilgrim Church, that one day we will arrive at eternal life, but before we get there we still encounter suffering in the world. This is why Christ redeemed us, so that we could trust in the fact that one day all would be well.David said Christ explodes the depths of suffering from the inside. We think of the horrific victims today and in history when we consider the Victim on the Cross. It is the light of God and true love that will convert all things to life.Scot said the Holy Father mentions specific peoples in the Middle East and in Japan and others who are struggling. Regardless of what they're battling, Christi is their answer too, because he will lighten the load and carry the burden.Fr. Chris said faith takes on a context lived in the lives of people who are suffering. It's in our times of suffering and sadness that we go right to the Lord that He is our only hope in the midst of the human condition.>Dear brothers and sisters! The risen Christ is journeying ahead of us towards the new heavens and the new earth (cf. Rev 21:1), in which we shall all finally live as one family, as sons of the same Father. He is with us until the end of time. Let us walk behind him, in this wounded world, singing Alleluia. In our hearts there is joy and sorrow, on our faces there are smiles and tears. Such is our earthly reality. But Christ is risen, he is alive and he walks with us. For this reason we sing and we walk, faithfully carrying out our task in this world with our gaze fixed on heaven. Happy Easter to all of you!David said this is so moving because Pope Benedict is reaching into all of our lives to say that there isn't a pain there that Christ hasn't touched and hasn't given a new purchase on a life of Divine Love. This is why we need to tell everyone we meet that Jesus Christ is alive and that changes everything.Fr. Chris said there is also the idea of finishing the race and running it well. Christ is the trailblazer before us and we follow behind him on this path to the Father. The Cross is the ladder to the heavens. We can't get there on our own. We need the gift of Jesus' cross.Scot said he loves what it says that we carry out our lives, walk behind Jesus with our gazes fixed on heaven. It gives us something to think about at our next hour of adoration.**5th segment:** Now considering the influence of Pope John Paul on the lives of the hosts and guest.Scot said he's never met someone who would become Blessed. He met him twice up front. Scot pointed out that Pope John Paul is being beatified for his virtues and holiness, not his papacy.David said he was raised a Baptist in Arkansas, and it was the presence of John Paul in the world that partly drew him to the Church eventually. There was an intense holiness that drew him in. His first-born son is John Paul and his second son is Benedict. He asks for prayers for his wife and their third son who is to be born next week.Fr. Chris said he has Polish heritage and growing up in a Polish section of Dorchester, he saw the excitement and joy of the Polish people at his election. He met Pope John Paul along with his Aunt Judy and it was an awesome experience of being in the presence of someone holy and who believed and drew close to Christ Jesus. He was also struck by his love for the Blessed Mother. John Paul lost his own mother at an early age and she became a real mother for him. John Paul was responsible for the image of Mary that was put up on the wall of the Apostolic Palace overlooking St. Peter's Square.John Paul's press spokesman said his great virtue was being truly present for each person who came before him. Scot and his brother were privileged to go to Mass in the pope's chapel in the apostolic palace. They were able to ask him to pray for their great aunt who was dying and he stopped them to pray for her right at that moment. He was able to tell her that Holy Father had prayed for her by name.Fr. Chris said he was often struck at World Youth Days by the young people who felt like the Holy Father had looked at them personally. He drew people in to himself and pointed them to Christ.David's favorite works of John Paul is the Theology of Body because it was so revolutionary to the way we talk about the faith in the modern world in the context of the sexual revolution especially. Scot said the way the Theology of the Body was taught in the weekly audiences was a way to teach this because some officials did not want him to write a book about sex. Thus it was "written into the record" as it was.Fr. Chris said the seminarians today are generally those who were inspired by Pope John Paul II, especially from World Youth Days. He also helped to revolutionize how seminary formation takes place.
