In this special episode, recorded live from the vibrant Agora co-working space, we sit down with Amy Corey, a dedicated seventh-grade social studies teacher at Grays Lake Middle School and the passionate head organizer of the St. Baldrick's event. This cherished annual fundraiser has been a beacon of hope and solidarity in our community for the past decade, raising funds for childhood cancer research and bringing people together in a powerful display of compassion and support. The Origins of the St. Baldrick's Event A Story of Solidarity and Compassion The St. Baldrick's event has its roots in a touching story of solidarity. It all began when a child diagnosed with cancer faced bullying due to hair loss from treatment. In a heartwarming response, a group of adults decided to shave their heads in solidarity, sparking the creation of the St. Baldrick's Foundation in 2000. This foundation has since grown into a significant movement dedicated to supporting children battling cancer through fundraising and awareness efforts. Bringing the Event to Grays Lake Middle School Ten years ago, a student at Grays Lake Middle School expressed interest in participating in a larger St. Baldrick's event in Woodstock. With the support of the school's principal at the time, Marcus Smith, and a small group of student council members, the first St. Baldrick's event at Grays Lake Middle School was organized. Little did they know, this event would become a beloved tradition, deeply ingrained in the fabric of the school and the community. The Event: A Day of Unity and Support The Assembly: A Powerful Kickoff The St. Baldrick's event kicks off with a full school assembly, where students and staff gather to witness the head-shaving and hair donation process. This assembly is more than just a spectacle; it's a powerful moment of unity and support. Barbers and stylists are on hand to help with the haircuts, and the atmosphere is electric with excitement and encouragement. This assembly allows students to see the tangible results of their fundraising efforts and understand the profound impact of their contributions. Hair Donations: A Gift of Normalcy In addition to head shaving, the event also includes hair donations for organizations like Children with Hair Loss, which provides wigs to children who have lost their hair due to medical conditions. Amy emphasizes that this organization accepts hair that is colored or treated, making it accessible for many who wish to contribute. These hair donations offer a sense of normalcy and comfort to young cancer patients, reminding them that they are not alone in their journey. How to Get Involved Event Details The St. Baldrick's event is scheduled for Friday, April 4th, from 2 PM to 6 PM at Grayslake Middle School. The assembly begins at 2 PM, lasting about an hour, after which the event opens to the public. Attendees can register online or walk in, and there are various activities planned, including a blood drive, raffle prizes, and a food donation drive for the Avon Township Food Pantry. Ways to Participate Shave Your Head**: Show your solidarity by shaving your head. Participants can seek sponsorships for their head-shaving efforts, creating fundraising pages to share with friends and family. Donate Hair**: Contribute to wig-making organizations by donating your hair. Remember, even colored or treated hair is accepted. Support the Blood Drive**: Participate in the blood drive to help save lives. Contribute to the Food Drive**: Bring in food items or clothing to support the Avon Township Food Pantry. Purchase Raffle Tickets**: Buy raffle tickets for a chance to win exciting prizes while supporting a great cause. The Power of Community Support Amy's enthusiasm for the event is palpable as she describes the energy and excitement that fills the school on that day. She shares that it is her favorite day of the year, filled with laughter, camaraderie, and a shared commitment to making a difference in the lives of children affected by cancer. The host echoes this sentiment, highlighting how the St. Baldrick's event not only raises funds for cancer research but also fosters a sense of unity and support within the Grayslake community. A Call to Action As the episode wraps up, Amy reflects on the emotional impact of the event, noting that it serves as a powerful reminder of the strength of community and the importance of coming together for a common cause. The host encourages listeners to get involved, whether by donating money, participating in the blood drive, or contributing items for the food drive. They emphasize that every little bit helps and that the community's collective efforts can lead to significant change. Join the Effort Listeners are encouraged to visit the St. Baldrick's event website to learn more, donate, or register for participation. The episode concludes with a call to action, inviting everyone to join in the effort to support childhood cancer research and make a positive impact in the lives of those in need. Spread Kindness The host concludes the episode with a heartfelt reminder about the importance of kindness. They encourage everyone to perform a random act of kindness, suggesting a specific date—April 4th—as a day to spread goodwill. The host reflects on the idea that we never truly know what our friends or family may be going through, and that small gestures of kindness can have a profound impact. Conclusion The St. Baldrick's event at Grayslake Middle School is more than just a fundraiser; it's a testament to the power of community, compassion, and solidarity. By coming together to support childhood cancer research, we not only raise funds but also create a ripple effect of kindness and support that extends far beyond the event itself. Join us on April 4th to make a difference, spread kindness, and be a part of something truly special. Thank you for tuning in to this episode of "Discovering Grayslake."

Jonathan emphasizes the importance of praying with both faith and humility, acknowledging our dependence on God while also trusting in His character.

Still going through Genesis and today we're going to be looking at chapter 32 of Genesis. Now I'm reading from modern translation, Genesis' first book in the Bible, so it will be fairly early on if you're looking for it. But this version I'm reading from is the New Living Translation, so don't hold it against me. Verse, chapter 32. As Jacob started on his way again, angels of God came to meet him. And when Jacob saw them he exclaimed, This is God's camp. So he named the place Mahanaim. Why can't this give it just a place like, you know, sort of our house or, you know. Never mind, it's another story. It means two camps anyway. And Jacob sent messages ahead of his brother Esau, who was living in the region of Seir in the land of Edom. He told them, Give this message to my master Esau, humble greetings from your servant Jacob. Until now I've been living with uncle Laban, and now I own cattle and donkeys and flocks of sheep and goats and many servants, both men and women. I've sent these messages to inform my Lord of my coming, hoping that you will be friendly to me. After delivering the message, the messengers returned to Jacob and reported, We met your brother Esau and he's already on his way to meet you with an army of 400 men. Jacob was terrified at the news. Yeah, I bet he was. He divided his household along with the flocks and herds and camels into two groups. And he thought, If Esau meets one group and attacks it, perhaps the other group can escape. Then Jacob prayed, O God of my grandfather Abraham and God of my father Isaac, O Lord, you told me, Return to your own land and to your relatives. And you promised me, I'll treat you kindly. I'm not worthy of all the unfailing love and faithfulness you have shown to me, your servant. When I left home and crossed the Jordan River, I own nothing except a walking stick. Now my household fills two large camps. O Lord, please rescue me from the hand of my brother Esau. I'm afraid he's going to attack me along with my wives and children. But you promised me, I will surely treat you kindly and I'll multiply your descendants until they become as numerous as the sands along the seashore, too many to count. Jacob stayed where he was for the night. Then he selected these gifts from his possessions to present to his brother Esau. 200 female goats, 20 male goats, 200 ewes, 20 rams, 30 female camels with their young and 40 cows, 10 bulls, 20 female donkeys and 30, oh sorry, 10 male donkeys, that's my eyesight. He divided these animals into herds and assigned each to different servants. Then he told his servants, Go ahead of me with the animals, but keep some distance between the herds. It's going to be like the 12 days of Christmas this you see. He gave these instructions to the men leading the first group. When my brother Esau meets you, he'll ask, whose servants are you and where are you going? Who owns these animals? You must reply, they belong to your servant Jacob, but they are a gift for his master Esau. Look, he's coming right behind us. And Jacob gave the same instruction to the second and third herdsmen and to all who followed behind the herds. You must say the same thing to Esau when you meet him and be sure to say, Look, your servant Jacob is right behind us. Jacob thought, I'll try to appease him by sending gifts ahead of me. And when I see him in person, perhaps he will be friendly to me. So the gifts were sent on ahead while Jacob himself spent that night in the camp. During the night, Jacob got up and he took his two wives, his two servant wives and his 11 sons and crossed the Jabot River with them. And after taking them to the other side, he sent over all his possessions. This left Jacob alone in the camp and a man came and wrestled with him until the dawn began to break. When the man saw that he wouldn't win the match, he touched Jacob's hip and wrenched it out of its socket. Then the man said, Let me go, for the dawn is breaking. But Jacob said, I will not let you go unless you bless me. What's your name? The man asked. He replied, Jacob. Your name will no longer be Jacob, the man told him. From now on, you will be called Israel because you have fought with God and with men and have won. Please tell me your name, Jacob said. Why do you want to know my name, the man replied. Then he blessed Jacob there. And Jacob named the place Peniel, which means face of God. For he said, I have seen God face to face and yet my life has been spared. The sun was rising as Jacob left Peniel and he was limping because of the injury to his hip. Even today, the people of Israel don't eat the tendon near the hip socket because of what happened that night when the man strained the tendon of Jacob's hip. You don't have to win every fight or every argument to be a winner. See, Jacob had this uncanny knack of making people angry. It was something that had happened throughout his life. In the last chapter 31, we saw how angry his Uncle Laban had got with him and why he'd left in such a hurry. He'd left without saying goodbye. He'd wanted to get out of what had been a pretty abusive relationship for 20 years, where this Jacob, who'd arrived as a con man himself, who had been conned and tricked for 20 years by his Uncle Laban into working for this guy, not being paid properly, not being looked after properly, everything that Laban did to try to trip him up, God seemed to bless Jacob. He said goodbye. Well, he hadn't said goodbye, he just rushed off. But Laban had caught up with him and he said, look, we scarpered because I was scared of you. Thankfully, he kind of resolved his relationship with his uncle, but it was now out of the frying pan and into the fire, because he was going home in obedience to what God had asked him to do. You read that in the previous chapter. But in doing so, his past was going to catch up with him. He was returning to a place where things had gone wrong. He wasn't anymore escaping from a problem. He was going to have to face it face to face. God had promised him this land that he was returning to, but that promise included challenges as to how he would rebuild relationships that had been broken. We read in Genesis 27 that Esau, his brother, hated Jacob. Why? Well, you know, our family issues can be really challenging for all of us, can't they, at times? You know, family breakups. It's marvelous. And there's nothing that causes more problems in a family than a will. And when a will doesn't work out that somebody doesn't get something that they expected and the other person has got it, well, what had happened is Jacob basically, with the help of his mum, had conned his brother, his elder brother, out of what was rightfully, as far as the way society worked, his. He'd done it by guile. He had received a blessing, you know, by default. He basically conned his way into a blessing rather than actually received it graciously and willingly and openly. He'd actually made something happen. Esau was so cross about this. He said, I'm going to kill him. Read the inscription. I'm going to kill him. Mum got word of this. Mum of both Esau and Rebecca. And she said these classic words that you can read in Genesis 27. She's told him to go to his uncle Laban's and she sent off with this message. She says, stay there with Laban until Esau cools off. And when he calms down, I'll send for you. Now 20 years have passed and she hasn't asked him to come home. He's had 20 years away from home and he's not had a message from Mum to say it's all right now. You can come home. Everything's fine. He's calmed down. But God's told him to go back. In the midst of this family breakup, what do you do to mend a broken relationship? How do you build that reconciliation back? You know, Esau felt he'd been fiddled out of what was rightfully his. But God says, you've got to go home and you've got to face the music. Jacob may have grasped a blessing that was not necessarily his to receive. Isaac had meant to give it to his son Esau. It hadn't been given willingly or knowingly to Jacob. And Jacob really lived up to his name. The word Jacob means deceiver or displacer or supplanter. Somebody who takes something that's not necessarily theirs. What was Jacob going to come home to? A fight or a friendship? I desperately wanted a friendship. And he knew he couldn't actually change the past. The past is gone. You can't actually, you know, we're not time travelers. We can't go back there and undo what we've done before. He just knew that he had to do something about this situation. He sorted things out with Laban. He now needed to sort things out with his estranged brother. And he was face to face with his crisis. And what did he attempt to do? Well, Jacob was always quite cunning, crafty, had good ideas. He had cunning plans, a bit like Baldrick. He was that kind of person. And he attempted a strategy of appeasement, as we read in this chapter. Groveling and gifts, basically, I've called it. It's the way he was going to try to win it over. He said, I'm hoping I can get around Esau. I can buy his friendship. I can buy my way back into his good books. I can say the right things and do the right things that will make him friendly towards me again. And then he gets this report that Esau was on his way to meet him, but with an army of 400 men. Now, you know, that's quite a big army in the context of this. This passage is quite interesting because fear is a major motivator in Jacob's actions, in his prayers and in his plans. There's no doubt about it. And he seems to have forgotten something that started right at the start of this passage. Because when he actually obeyed the command of God, knowing what he was about to face with his brother, potentially, he has another one of these wonderful experiences with God, which, I mean, Jacob had so many of these encounters with the supernatural, it's amazing, where he suddenly sees a great host, an army almost, of angels on the road. And he says, because this is a great place right at the start of the chapter. This is a place of two camps. My camp's here. God's camp of angels is here. It's as if God's saying, come on, Jacob, you can do this. I'm with you. You can do the right thing. I'm alongside you. I'm there for you. I'm with you. And he recognized it. He had discernment. He understood that God's presence was there too. And it didn't stop him from being afraid. And Jacob's response is so typical of us as Christians, and I include me in this. We face a challenge. We wrestle with it. We struggle to find a solution or a plan or a way of getting out of it. We make our plans to try to make the best of a bad thing sometimes, and we fear in the worst. And yet all the time we're also praying. We're praying on the basis of what the Bible says, what God says, you know, the promises of God. We believe this because God has said this. Lord, you've said this. We can trust you for this. We're doing that. We kind of like pray on the basis of our great need. We say, help, Lord. God, deliver us. God, help us. God, be in this for us. While we're still doing our plans, we pray on the basis of God's character. You're kind, you're loving, you're all these things. And then we return to our plans. If you want to use a term that's often used in the House of Parliaments these days, now being used of Labour, was used at the Tories beforehand, he's flip-flopping. He's going from planning to praying to planning to praying to planning to praying. And he's, you know, he's caught in the tension of this fear of Esau and the consequences of going back there and thinking I'm going to lose everything. We're going to be massacred. You know, my family's going to be destroyed. Everything's going to go down. I need to split the camp into two. So if he gets one half, the other half at least can survive. He's got that at one side and the promise of God. I'm not going back. I'm not going back to Labour. I'm not going back to what was. I'm going forward into what God has called me to do. I'm going forward into the promise of God and going forward into what I've been asked to do. You've promised me God that, you know, my descendants are going to live. They're going to multiply. You've promised me a future and a hope. And yet he's struggling with the tension, isn't he, of the reality of a problem and the truth of what he believes about the God who is bigger than all those problems. It's this tug of war. And it's a tug of war that we all face at times. A tug of war that goes on in our hearts and our minds. And I think, you know, it reminds me of the dad of a very troubled lad that we read about in Mark chapter 9 who came to Jesus. And Jesus said to him, you know, if you believe, everything's possible. And this guy said, well, I do believe that anything's possible. But help me overcome my unbelief. It's one thing to think God can do something. God will intervene. God will support me. God will protect me. God will do this. God will heal. God will deliver. God will strengthen. God will rescue. It's another thing when you're in the challenge of the battle itself to believe God will do it for me. We can believe, all of us can believe that God can. The issue is God will, will God. Jacob is wrestling with real doubts and fears before what he anticipates to be a struggle with his brother Esau. I just want to go back briefly to this prayer that's in the middle of this chapter, I think verse 9 onwards, isn't it, or something like that. Because I think it's just a lovely prayer. Despite all his struggles, there is something about the honesty and the rawness of Jacob's life. I think God wants from all of us. He's basically saying a very real way, an honest way. He says to God, look, you told me to come here. I'm here in obedience. I'm obeying you. I'm kind of trusting you in this. I'm here because you've made a promise to me about this land and about my descendants and about this being the place you want me to be. I'm doing what you're asking me to do and I'm trusting you for that. I've not run away from it. I've not fled from this conflict from 400 armed men. And it's also prayed not from a place of entitlement, but a place of humility. I'm not worthy, he says, of all your unfailing love and faithfulness. Now I just want to say something about unworthiness or feeling not worthy. It's a great thing to be humble before our God. It's what God wants us to do, what humbly before him. It's an unhealthy thing to have an unworthy attitude that says, I am not worthy of the grace, the mercy, the favor, the love of God. Many of us miss out on what God wants to do in our lives because they think, well, we're not good enough. We'll never make it. We'll never get there. And there's a balance here in Jacob's prayer. He recognizes, yes, the grace of God. I am unworthy. I have messed up at times. But he understands something that God doesn't just look on our unworthiness. He is a God of grace and mercy and loving kindness towards us, which is totally undeserved. He prays with humility. He prays on the basis of his act walking in obedience and in the God's promise. And he also acknowledges the blessing of God on his life. He's saying, thank you. Without God, he said, I'd have nothing. All I'd own, he says in verse 10, is just my walking stick on my staff. That's all I'd have. And the irony you will see at the end of this chapter is that will become a mark of what God is going to do in his life. It's the one thing that will be a reminder to him of when everything else is stripped away. He's got something to lean on. Someone to lean on. And in the midst of this raw prayer, he's praying for rescue. Lord help, I can't do this. This is beyond me. And he's not just praying for himself. He's praying for his family, his kids, his wives. But he goes straight back afterwards. Flips, like so many of us to say. If I pray my cards right, this is not what in the Bible. If I play my cards right, I'm going to salvage something out of this. I can make something at least. I can get something out of this. He's still trusting God, but not totally trusting God. It's almost like the limited partial faith that we all have. The Bible says walk by faith, doesn't it? I think most of us limp by faith, but not because of what we're going to see happen with Jacob. But we struggle to actually put faith into practice in our lives. Jacob is wrestling with this problem and night falls. But he can't sleep. We know that because in verse 2 it says during the night he got up. He's tossing and turning, wrestling with the problem. What's going to happen tomorrow? What's going to happen when I see Esau? What's going to happen with my family? What's going to happen with my goods? What's going to happen to me? How is Esau going to treat me? And he gets up and he sends his family and his possessions that are with him to the relative safety across the river. And he's left alone with his thoughts considering what the next day is going to bring. But of course, he was never alone. God's camp was just up the road. He wasn't alone. God was there. You know, often we feel we're just alone in this problem that you face. There's people in this room think you're alone in the problem you face. I think God wants to say to you this morning, you're not alone. You're not alone. See, God was there. And God finally wants to get to grips with Jacob. Jacob had spent his whole life struggling and striving from birth with Esau, then with Laban, trying to get ahead of the game using his cunning and his wits. And tonight he was going to learn a wrestling move. He was going to learn to submit. I used to watch the wrestling on the TV, not this American stuff, you know, but the old ITV Channel 4 o'clock. Some of you are old enough to remember it, you know. And the next round, eight rounds, eight four-minute rounds, two submissions, two falls or a knockout. And in one corner we have Big Daddy. God, and the other one we've got, you know, like conniving little so-and-so, like Jackie Paolo, you know. So we've got Jacob in one thing, the Jackie Paolo, and we've got the Big Daddy God in the other one, and there's going to be a wrestling match. Submission. Jacob, well God knew that actually, Jacob needed to meet him before he met Esau. And God made it happen. God wants Jacob to submit to him, to learn what it is to lean heavily on him, to learn what it is to cling to him, to learn what it is, not to hang on to his own achievements and his own abilities, but to hang on to God, to know that this would be the place of real blessing in his life. A blessing that would be graciously given, not taken by guile, that would be given freely by God himself. After wrestling with God all night, Jacob could no longer rely on his own strength to fight his battles because God broke him, crippled him, if you like, dislocated his thigh. And for all of you who've ever had dislocations, and I'm not one of them, you'll know how painful it is, won't you Leslie, and others. You know, this is before the days of hip joints and all the rest of it. This guy was left powerless and helpless to continue his struggle with God. Jacob, as he was going through this wrestling match, knew that he wasn't wrestling one of Esau's men or even Esau himself. And the more the struggle continued, the more Jacob's determined that this is God, and God's blessing on my life. He gets the point after his hips put out, you know, he's clinging on, clinging on, one leg, clinging on. You know, a bit like in a boxing match where they go into, you know, the hold. So just trying to have a breather, but he's clinging on to God. And he's saying, I will not let go unless you bless me. And all that mattered to him at that point, remember, he started this evening not being able to sleep worrying about Esau. Now all he's concerned about is that he encounters God in a way that he would know God's blessing upon his life. Suddenly Esau doesn't matter anymore. What really matters is his relationship with God and what's happening there and then in his life with God. He's no longer consumed by these thoughts that he was wrestling with, he's wrestling with God himself. The night had begun with him wrestling with his fears, wrestling in his mind about what he's going to do with Esau, and it ended with him having wrestled with God. And it was a night that he would never forget, because he realized in the darkness, he had been face to face with God. God leaves the scene before dawn breaks. There's this phrase in the Old Testament, no one can see God and live. And there's almost the grace of God in that, in actually withdrawing before the light comes. But you've got this little phrase that's used in the Bible that says, you know, about the sun rose. I think it says on one version of the Bible that we use, one translation. The sun rose upon Jacob. It's a new day. The lights dawned, and he limps away, not thinking about Esau, saying, I've met with God a changed man, because he submitted to God. Hosea has these words to say about this incident in Hosea 12 verses 3 to 6. Even in the womb, Jacob struggled with his brother. And when he became a man, he even fought with God. Yes, he wrestled with the angel and won. He wept and pleaded for a blessing from him. And in Hebrews 11 verse 21, that chapter of these champions of faith, we read of Jacob. That it was by faith that Jacob, when he was old and dying, blessed each of Joseph's sons, and bowed in worship as he leaned upon that walking stick, that staff. Jacob is a changed man. He's broken, he's bowed, and he's blessed. And as a result, or as in the past, he's not been a particular blessing to his family. He's now able to bless others. He's changed physically, but he's also changed spiritually. He not only leans on his staff now for support, but that is in itself a constant reminder that he needs to keep leaning on God. His limp is a constant reminder of his encounter with the living God. I was told years ago by someone, I can't remember who, always trust a man who walks with a limp. I was talking in spiritual terms. I think that means always trust somebody who leans heavily on God. Someone who's vulnerable. Someone who's aware of their own weakness. Someone who doesn't come across as some sort of super saint that's got everything sorted. And he's empowered and powerful and, you know, the super saint stuff that people are drawn to. The person who has encountered God, who walks with a limp, is broken and bowed in terms of humility and in terms of worship and blessed. And there's a character change comes out as a result. You see, the name of a person, particularly in Genesis in the Old Testament, actually meant something. And this is a mark of God's grace upon his life. No longer you are going to be called the heel, the displacer, the deceiver, the supplanter, whatever this word Jacob means. Now you are going to be known as Israel, the God persevera, the God striver. You have changed. You're a changed man. You're a changed person as a result of meeting me. You see, I always say this character really matters. And for all the great experiences that Jacob has had to this time, you think about it, Bethel and all the rest of it. There's amazing things that have happened in his life. There's still a lot in Jacob until this moment, which is all, I'm going to sort this out myself. I'll try to make it this work. I can do it in my own strength. You know, I believe in God. Thank you, God. Please help me, God. Please rescue me, God. But really, I'll try and wangle my way through it as I've done in the past. At this point, all he can do is that he's going to be limping towards his brother. He's not going to be going there with 400 armed men. He's going to be walking towards an army like this. You read what happens in the next chapter as a result at that time. And I come to a close. What I love about the stories in Genesis is that they're very real, thousands of years old, but they go to the heart of the human condition, the character of who we really are, the real us, the ones that aren't just turn up on Sundays and say our prayers and do our singing and say all nice things at the front, but the reality of life with the struggles that we face and encounter and how we live. And we are so much like Jacob. Well, if you're not, maybe not, but I am. Wrestle. We wrestle with life. We have struggles with life. We wrestle with people. We wrestle with our families. We wrestle and struggle with what God's will is in our lives. Doing the right thing in the right way. Many of us in this room have known and are aware of God's promises and have had encounters with God and visions and dreams and words and experiences. I mean, I have. I'm sure you all have. But yet it doesn't stop us at times thinking. I'll try and plan this one out and God please help my plans. I'll try and work this out in my own strength. I'll still do that. You know, we start at the place where we ask God to bless what we're doing. And we try to get out the scripts we get into and the problems that we've made ourselves, you know, asking God's help in it, but we try to do our bit as well. The example of Jesus at Gethsemane is an example of brokenness, a bowedness and a blessedness. Not my will, but yours be done. God's will, you see, is not always going to be easy for us. At times it may be painful. But it is the way that we become a blessing to others. And we may know his blessing for ourselves. I finish with this, James 4 verse 7 says, submit yourselves to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Andy used to often say in the leadership team to me, it's not about you. I never did think it was about me, to be honest. Remember, it's not about you. But I want to say, it's not about you. Politely. It's not about the leaders. It's not about Nick. Not about Erica. Not about Andy and not about any of us in this room. Not about me. It's about him. It's about him. Take this cup away from me. Yet not what I will. But your will be done. A meeting in a garden at night that Jesus had. An encounter at night that Jacob had with God. History changed. God bless you. Amen.
In a single day, Appalachia's peacekeepers and independent forces have fallen. The Five-0 New Responders HQ is in ruins, the radio station is empty, mindlessly looping songs and the Overseer is missing. And yet, for Wastelanders and Raiders alike they are rolling into the region to lay down roots of their own, no matter how unintended the consequences of that action may be. The Enclave have arrived from Raven Rock and are squeezing the Judge to get things back under control, little knowing that in a single stroke he now has the power to reset the board.

The episode begins with an ongoing artillery attack that is disturbing Blackadder's rest, an attack which Blackadder says is futile as "Jerry is safe underground". Shortly after it stops, an air raid begins. Believing it to be a German raid, Blackadder leaves an angry message for the head of the Royal Flying Corps ("Message reads 'Where are you, you bastards?'"), but is not thrilled to learn that it was simply a display by the Flying Corps. Shortly afterwards, the brash and egocentric Squadron Commander Lord Flashheart crash lands in the trench and punches Blackadder, believing him to be a "Boche". Baldrick and George are enraptured by Flashheart, though Blackadder is completely unimpressed, viewing Flashheart as a "prat". As Flashheart leaves with Bob, he offers George a place in the Flying Corps. Initially uninterested, Blackadder is more agreeable when he learns of the "Twenty Minuters" squadron, so named because new pilots only spend twenty minutes in the air. At Staff HQ, Blackadder tries to join the Flying Corps; Captain Darling tries to stop him, but General Melchett allows the transfer. At basic training the next day, Blackadder learns that the flight instructor is Flashheart, and that the actual reason for the name "Twenty Minuters" is because the twenty minutes is the life expectancy of a new pilot. Darling at this point assures Blackadder that he will be fine as long as he has a good navigator. However, much to Darling's glee, the navigator is Baldrick. Shortly after take off, both Blackadder and Baldrick are shot down by a German plane and captured by Baron von Richthofen, who wants to learn the subtleties of British humour. He informs them of their fate, which entails teaching home economics to young German girls in a convent outside Heidelberg, which the Baron thinks will be a "fate worse than death to a British soldier"; Blackadder feigns sorrow, but he is, of course, overjoyed. George, in the meantime, attempts to rescue Blackadder with the help of Darling and Melchett, but is informed that it would be "pointless". He is shown a life size model of the land they have recaptured, measuring seventeen square feet. He is more successful in recruiting Lord Flashheart, who swiftly rescues Blackadder and Baldrick. Blackadder tries to stall them claiming he has "splintered [his] pancreas", but Flashheart is not fooled and forces Blackadder out the door. At that moment, Richthofen appears and confronts Flashheart, comparing the nobility and majesty of their calling. In response, Flashheart shoots von Richthofen and calls him a "poof". Back at HQ, Blackadder confronts the cowardly Darling who as he steps backwards finds that Flashheart is standing behind him. Flashheart then headbutts Darling into unconsciousness onto his desk to get back at him for not rescuing them sooner. He then leaves, advising Blackadder "If you want something, take it" (a principle he demonstrates with Bob). Melchett appears, at which point Blackadder asks for some time off to recuperate. Melchett agrees, stating that Blackadder's commanding officer would have to be "mad" to refuse. However, when Blackadder reminds Melchett that he is Blackadder's commanding officer and asks if he can have a week's leave to recuperate, Melchett replies "Certainly not", refusing Blackadder's request.
Baldrick burns the only copy of Samuel Johnson's dictionary, and Blackadder has only one weekend to rewrite it.

n the throne room, Blackadder informs Queenie and Nursie of an unspecified incident that saw Blackadder insulting the unidentified individual before he pulled up his tights and jumped out of the privy window. Melchett arrives, telling Queenie that his former tutor's son has been kidnapped and begs for her to pay the hefty ransom. Queenie consults Lord Blackadder on the matter – he tells her to tell Melchett's tutor's son to "get stuffed", stating that "only an idiot" would be so foolish as to be kidnapped. However, literally seconds later, after he has left the room, Blackadder meets two men, one of whom asks him something while another hits Blackadder over the head and knocks him unconcious with Melchett suffering the same fate after he has convinced Queenie to pay the ransom. The two then awaken in a damp cell in a dungeon accompanied by a deranged Spanish torturer. Blackadder does not speak Spanish, so after Melchett has translated that he is to be tortured, Blackadder and the torturer engage in a lengthy game of charades to determine the exact insults, threats, and mode of torture. Prince Ludwig the Indestructible, a German pretender to the throne with poor English skills, intervenes just as the torturer is about to get started on Blackadder, stopping the other man with his whip. When Edmund does not recognise him, Ludwig reveals that he was once disguised as "Big Sally", a waitress at a pub in Dover that Blackadder frequented while meeting a black marketeer named Otto. Blackadder is horrified as he had an affair with Big Sally, unaware that it was Ludwig in disguise. Ludwig and Blackadder also trade insults, Blackadder loses his patience and rants about Ludwig's voices, with Ludwig snapping, telling Edmund to be quiet. After that, Ludwig reveals he has sent Queenie a message and that she has a week to pay up, with Blackadder confidently believing Queenie will do so. At Ludwig's request, Lord Melchett is dragged in by Ludwig's two guards, screaming. Melchett does not recognise Ludwig, until Ludwig tells him that he once impersonated Flossie, a sheep at a monastery in Cornwall. Melchett is also aghast, having unknowingly had a sexual encounter with the madman, with an amused Ludwig adding in a "Baaa". Ludwig departs the dungeon with his two guards, laughing evilly, as Blackadder and Melchett remain in the dungeon. Percy then reads a message back to Queenie, informing her she only has a week to decide as to who will be freed: Melchett or Blackadder. At Queenie's suggestion, with Baldrick's help, Percy plays a quick singing game to help influence Queenie's decision. A week later, Ludwig returns with the message from Queenie, which reveals that she has decided to spend the requested ransom money on "a big party" instead. Ludwig reads it out to Blackadder and Melchett, with Blackadder left shocked at her decision. Ludwig agrees to imprison them for life instead of killing them, in exchange for information on how to get into the palace during the costume party, Blackadder and Melchett also agreeing to betray Queenie. Sometime later, Ludwig returns to bid farewell to his prisoners, but his temper emerges when Blackadder points out he was bullied at school, Ludwig even revealing he was given the embarrassing nickname of "Shorty Greasy Spot-Spot". When he leaves, Blackadder and Melchett, working together manage to eventually overpower the two guards who have come to deliver food and escape, returning to England, arriving just in time for the party. Queenie is dressed as her father Henry VIII, while Baldrick is a pencil case. Edmund promptly stabs "Nursie", who is revealed to be Prince Ludwig masquerading as Nursie dressed as a cow, just as the real Nursie arrives. Ludwig reveals he and Queenie have met before, Queenie greeting Ludwig by his nickname, which enrages him. Vowing to return and wreak his revenge, Ludwig flees, heading for the door, cackling manically. Not wanting history to repeat itself, Blackadder throws a dagger at Ludwig, which hits him off-screen, causing him to cry out in pain. When asked how he knew the cow was Ludwig, Blackadder informs the group Ludwig was a master of disguise so his costume would always look highly impressive while Nursie – a "sad, insane old woman with an udder fixation" – would be wearing a more ridiculous looking costume filled with udders, and that Blackadder knew he had to kill the one who looked like a cow. Everyone then asks if Blackadder missed them. He tells Percy he wished it was him who was being tortured instead with Percy sobbing and embracing Edmund. To Baldrick he says he was not missed at all, and as for the Queen, he states that life without her is like "a broken pencil"; she asks him to explain, and he replies "pointless". After the credits have rolled, the characters are shown lying dead on the floor, with Ludwig, disguised as Queenie, standing over them holding a blood-soaked dagger in his right hand, implying he used it to kill them. Ludwig then claims that impersonating the queen is a role he will enjoy – if he can "just get the voice right."

20 years after playing Baldrick, Tony is still stopped in the street and asked where my turnip is! Turnips made him famous, so today Tony is talking turnips in history: have they always been so unloved, a food fit only for animals and peasants like Baldrick, or is this a recent British bugbear?

Today Tony is talking to his old friend and collaborator, the screenwriter Richard Curtis. They share memories of making Blackadder from the early years to how it all ended. Along the way, they discuss Richard's comedy roots and how he became a top comedy screenwriter: meeting Rowan Atkinson at Oxford Uni; working on Not The Nine O'Clock News; the influence of Fawlty Towers and plans for a Blackadder series set in the 1960s that never happened. Plus, they read lines from the Blackadder pilot script and discover where Baldrick's ‘cunning plan' catch-phrase comes from.Last year Blackadder turned 40, to mark the occasion, Tony made a TV show in which he tracked down the lost Blackadder pilot to discover the truth of Blackadder's beginnings. For the show, Tony interviewed many old friends and people who are central to making Blackadder the success it was, as well as Blackadder superfan David Mitchell, who is featured in Cunningcast Series 2, Episode 4. You are hearing Tony's unedited, behind the scenes chat with Richard Curtis recorded for the TV programme. The show is called Blackadder: The Lost Pilot and you can watch it on Sky, Virgin & Now.Richard Curtis was Blackadder's mastermind and writer, alongside Ben Elton.

We celebrate his profound sense of local engagement and involvement in everything from the Fuquay Varina Downtown Association to festive occasions that bind the community, while considering the larger fabric of support that enriches family life and community charm. Tune in as we dive into Justin's latest endeavors to fund childhood cancer research and bring the community together, yet again. He's stepping up to shave his head for the St. Baldrick's Foundation at an event at Fainting Goat in Fuquay Varina on Sunday, March 24th from 1-6 PM and is ready to rock the Guy Fieri look in the meantime for the St. Patrick's Day parade in Raleigh if his goal is met. We shed light on the immense value of the foundations funding much needed research for new medications and maybe even a cure as well as our local organizations that provide comfort and joy to children enduring major medical treatments, illuminating the powerful impact of individual contributions, whether they're monetary, in-kind, or simply the act of showing up.Wrapping up our heartfelt dialogue, it's not just about getting to know the man behind Green Home Solutions; it's about recognizing the resilience and strength that emerges when we rally together for the common good. Through this episode, you'll not only gain insight into the invaluable work done by local organizations for children with serious illnesses but also leave with a reminder of the remarkable changes we can effect, simply by being there for one another. From my own experience through my daughter's journey to those touched by these organizations, one fundamental truth shines through: every ounce of support counts.

Season 6 Episode 2 When Scott, a childhood cancer survivor turned advocate, and Rosalie, the director of government relations and advocacy from St. Baldrick's Foundation, joined me, Rosaria Kozar, the conversation was nothing short of inspiring.

We shared the often unseen struggles that follow the victory of 'beating' cancer — the continuous health battles, risks of secondary cancers, and the psychological toll on families.Support the show

We had the pleasure of interviewing Black Smoke Trigger over Zoom video!New Zealand rock juggernauts Black Smoke Trigger have unleashed their hard-hitting new single “The Way Down” today. The accompanying death-defying music video sees Black Smoke Trigger go to extreme lengths in pursuit of rock n roll glory. Filmed atop The Auckland Sky Tower, the tallest building in the Southern Hemisphere, the video features the band performing on the rooftop 630ft up and guitarist, Charlie Wallace, jumping off the building whilst shredding a guitar solo.Produced by the legendary Nick Raskulinecz (Alice in Chains, Foo Fighters, RUSH) and mixed by Chris Lord-Alge (Green Day, Muse, Prince), “The Way Down” is an arena ready rock anthem that combines a gigantic, toe tapping riff from leader and guitarist Charlie Wallace (creator of the hugely successful Guitar Mastery Method) with soaring vocals from frontman Baldrick, who's soaring vocal range channels icons like Chris Cornell and Layne Staley in both passion and versatility and a pummelling rhythm section courtesy of Bassist Dan Fulton, and drummer Josh Te Maro. The track follows the band's previous single “Caught In The Undertow”, the video for which was also a feat of extreme conditions. Filmed at Muriwai beach in Auckland, New Zealand and at a helicopter crash testing facility in a 3.6M deep pool, the whole band performed much of the song underwater, highlighting their dedication to creating unforgettable visual accompaniments for their hard-hitting rock anthems.Blending raw punk aggression with arena-ready hooks, “The Way Down” provides the perfect soundtrack as Black Smoke Trigger literally dives into the unknown. The latest single cements this ambitious quartet as heavy music's most daring new force.With elite musicianship honed from years of tireless work, Black Smoke Trigger show no signs of compromise in their pursuit of creating pure exhilarating rock chaos. Their unbridled passion bleeds through every note.The horizon shines bright for these Kiwi rock trailblazers. Stay tuned for much more to come.ABOUT BLACK SMOKE TRIGGERBlack Smoke Trigger are led by Wallace (creator of the hugely successful Guitar Mastery Method) whose insane talent provides everything from delicate melodic motifs to face-melting shred solos and stadium-conquering riffs. They are fronted by incendiary vocalist Baldrick, whose impressive vocal abilities provide that indefinable, timeless rock n roll soul to the Black Smoke Trigger sound. Bassist Dan Fulton, and drummer Josh Te Maro round out the line-up, joining forces to create a powerhouse rhythmic backbone and one of the most bombastic and inventive rhythm sections of recent years.With a rapidly growing fanbase, millions of streams, a reputation for raucous live shows, and an irrepressibly fearless approach to their craft, Black Smoke Trigger are poised to be the biggest and most thrilling entity to come from New Zealand since the Lord of The Rings movies. Just with more rock n roll and less hobbits.We want to hear from you!

At many nonprofits, corporate partnerships and peer-to-peer (P2P) fundraising programs live on separate teams with different goals and often competing priorities. But there's a clear connection between the two. Not only can a peer-to-peer fundraising program serve as an entry point for a new corporate partner, but it can also be a great way to deepen relationships with existing corporate partners through employee engagement. Similarly, adding a cause marketing campaign or other social impact initiative can amplify a P2P sponsor's impact.At their core, corporate social impact campaigns and P2P programs empower champions to ask for donations, volunteer and build awareness on behalf of the nonprofit. Plus, when you leverage the two initiatives in tandem, a true win-win-win partnership can be created for all involved.In this episode, EFG's Alli Murphy and the Peer-to-Peer Professional Forum's Marcie Maxwell are joined by Robyn Raphael, Director of Corporate Partnerships for St. Baldrick's Foundation and Amanda Palm, Director of Communications & Partnerships at Sport Clips. The trio discusses how St. Baldrick's signature P2P head-shaving events led to a natural partnership between the childhood cancer charity and the sports-themed hair care franchise and its stylists.In today's episode, we'll explore:How peer-to-peer fundraising can serve as a platform for employee engagementWhat it takes to create & sustain a mutually beneficial partnershipThe importance of listening and trust in a nonprofit-corporate partnershipHow Robyn and Amanda built a strong relationship and how they work together to grow their organizationsElevate Your Social ImpactCheck out our annual conference!Sign up for Engage for Good's newsletterCheck out past podcast episodesAccess free resourcesCheck out our monthly webinarsLet Alli know what you think of the show!

When people think of the medieval peasant, they may conjure up images of the character Baldrick from the TV series Blackadder, who has arguably become the poster boy of peasantry. For most, the term ‘peasant' suggests poverty, ignorance, missing teeth, threadbare rags and poor personal hygiene, but how close is this negative image to the truth? And what was daily life actually like for them? Joining us to separate fact from fiction are English Heritage properties historian Al Oswald and Emeritus Professor of History at the University of Leicester Christopher Dyer, who were both involved in the investigations at the famous deserted medieval village of Wharram Percy in North Yorkshire. To find out more about Wharram Percy Deserted Medieval Village or plan a visit, go to www.english-heritage.org.uk/wharram-percy.
This week in 1983 one of the great political schemers, Edmund Blackadder hit TV screens for the first time. Matt chart's the politics of the classic sitcom, from the power plays to the by-elections, speaking to Tony Robinson, who played Baldrick, and Miriam Margolyes who was a regular on the show. Plus Columnists India Knight and James Heale discuss whether partygate would have blown over had Boris Johnson fessed up at the very start and whether today's softer work culture is destroying ambition. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
This year is the 40th birthday of the TV show that changed Tony's life. Since playing Baldrick in Blackadder, he's still routinely asked in the street if he'd like a turnip. Blackadder was first broadcast on 15th June 1983, so today Tony has decided to test himself to see if he can find out something that he didn't already know about the series, with John Lloyd, who was the producer of Blackadder. John went on to create Have I got News for You and QI but, like Tony, it all started with the Adder. Hosted by Tony Robinson Twitter @Tony_Robinson / Instagram @sirtonyrobinson With John Lloyd CBE Creator, producer and comedy writer. John's television work includes Not the Nine O'clock News, Spitting Image, all four Blackadder series and most recently QI. Whilst at the BBC he produced and created The News Quiz, To the Manor Born and Quote…Unquote. He also co-wrote episodes of the radio series of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy with Douglas Adams. John also presents The Museum of Curiosity on BBC Radio 4 which he co-created.CREDITS: Series Producer: Melissa FitzGerald @melissafitzgExec Producer: Dominic de TervilleCover Art: The Brightside A Zinc Media Group productionFollow:Twitter: @cunningcastpodInstagram: @cunningcastpodYouTube If you enjoyed my podcast, please leave us a rating or review.Thank you, Love Tony x Hosted on Acast.

This year is the 40th anniversary of Blackadder, the cult TV show that changed Tony's life. He famously played the ‘turnip brained' Baldrick, who always had ‘a cunning plan'. To celebrate this year's special birthday, Tony welcomes fellow Blackadder alumni, and dear friend of almost 60 years, onto the launch episode of Cunningcast - yes, it's the legend that is Miriam Margolyes. Back in the day, before she was a national treasure, Miriam made a handful of standout appearances on Blackadder, including the Spanish Infanta in Series 1, Lady Whiteadder in Series 2, and Queen Victoria in Blackadder's Christmas Carol. In this special episode, Tony and Miriam recount stories from the series and discuss: where they first met, how she built her hugely successful career, the joys of travelling late in life, her new book, and most importantly… does she have a cunning plan? Health warning: this being Miriam, the language does get a little fruity at times! Hosted by Tony Robinson @Tony_Robinson Featuring Miriam MargolyesWriter, political activist, TV and screen personality, Miriam Margolyes received a BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role for her role in Martin Scorsese's The Age of Innocence (1993) and portrayed Professor Sprout in the Harry Potter film series (2002–2011). She was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2002 New Year Honours for Services to Drama. Miriam has spent many years dividing her time between the United Kingdom, Australia and Italy. She became an Australian citizen in 2013.
