Ahead of tomorrow's ceremony to honor longtime women's basketball coach Katie Meier, she joined the show to discuss her 19-year career as a head coach at The U and life after coaching.

Derrick Rose's jersey is officially headed to the rafters — and for Chicago Bulls fans, this moment hits different. In this episode of the Horns Over Hoops Podcast, Sal Bass, Dan Gracie, and Scotty B reflect on what Derrick Rose truly meant to the city of Chicago, the Bulls organization, and an entire generation of basketball fans. From MVP memories to emotional reactions to seeing the banner raised, this episode is part tribute, part therapy session for Bulls fans everywhere. But the show doesn't stop there. With the Chicago Bulls sitting around .500 and the NBA trade deadline approaching, the guys dive into a buy, sell, or sit pat debate. Should the Bulls move players like Kobe White or Nikola Vučević? Is the front office finally making the right decisions? And why are Bulls fans always desperate for a trade — even when patience might be the smarter move? This episode blends nostalgia, real basketball talk, and unfiltered Bulls fandom — the kind you only get from fans who actually watch the games.

Marvel Mondays continue as we move through the early MCU with the franchise's second entry.ABOUT THE INCREDIBLE HULKBruce Banner, a scientist on the run from the U.S. Government, must find a cure for the monster he turns into whenever he loses his temper.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR THE INCREDIBLE HULKJune 13, 2008 | TheatersCAST & CREW OF THE INCREDIBLE HULKEdward Norton as Bruce BannerLiv Tyler as Betty RossTim Roth as Emil BlonskyWilliam Hurt as General “Thunderbolt” RossTim Blake Nelson as Samuel SternsBRAN'S THE INCREDIBLE HULK SYNOPSISThe movie kicks off with a quick montage explaining how Bruce Banner became the Hulk. You know the deal. The military, however, is very interested in finding him because… he's extremely dangerous.Five years later, Bruce is living in Brazil, lying low. He's doing breathing exercises to keep his heart rate down and working at a bottling factory. He's also desperately searching for a cure for his Hulk-ness, secretly chatting online with someone named Mr. Blue.One day at work, Bruce cuts his finger, and a drop of his blood falls into one of the bottles. That bottle eventually makes its way to the U.S., where it causes serious problems for the guy who drinks it. Using this contaminated bottle, the military tracks Banner's location. A strike team led by Emil Blonsky is sent in to capture him.Bruce transforms into the Hulk and completely wrecks Blonsky's team. Blonsky, instead of being terrified, is impressed and immediately wants that power for himself. He agrees to be injected with a small dose of a super-soldier serum connected to the original Hulk experiment. Surely nothing bad will happen.Bruce returns to the States to grab some of his old research and reunites with his former girlfriend, Betty Ross. Blonsky attacks again, and when Betty is put in danger, Bruce transforms into the Hulk. Hulk fights off the military—including Blonsky—and escapes with Betty.Now officially on the run together, Bruce contacts Mr. Blue, who urges them to meet in New York City.Mr. Blue turns out to be Dr. Samuel Sterns, a cellular biologist who claims he's developed a possible antidote. They test it—and it actually works. But Sterns reveals he's also been stockpiling Bruce's blood samples, believing its “limitless potential” could revolutionize medicine now that a cure exists.Bruce immediately points out that this is a terrible idea because the military is absolutely going to weaponize it. (Did we learn nothing from Iron Man?)Right on cue, Blonsky and the military arrive, capture Banner, and take him away. Blonsky stays behind and forces Sterns to inject him with Banner's blood. Sterns warns him that combining the serum with the radiation already in his body could turn him into something far worse—an Abomination.Blonsky hears the name and says, “Cool. Do it.”Blonsky mutates into a massive, rage-filled monster even bigger and stronger than the Hulk and immediately starts destroying Harlem.Bruce realizes he has to stop him. He jumps from a helicopter, transforms mid-fall, and the Hulk takes on Abomination in an extended, brutal battle across the city. Hulk ultimately defeats him by choking him with a massive chain, stopping only when Betty begs him not to kill Blonsky.After a quiet moment with Betty, Hulk flees the scene and disappears.One month later, Bruce is in Bella Coola, British Columbia. Instead of trying to suppress the Hulk, he's learning to transform on purpose. As his eyes turn green, Bruce smiles.

When Justin Banner's company hired their second salesperson, everything fell apart. Not because the new hire was incompetent, but because there was no system. No documented process. No clear path from prospect to close. The sales team was flying blind, and Banner realized something critical: What isn't documented, can't be scaled. But here's the twist most business leaders miss: your sales team isn't the only one struggling in the dark. The Celebration Gap That's Killing Your Culture Picture your last team celebration. Chances are, it was for hitting a sales milestone. Maybe your top salesperson closed a big deal. Maybe you exceeded quarterly revenue targets. The sales team got the spotlight, the applause, the recognition. Now picture your operations team. Your QA specialists. Your developers. Your fulfillment crew. When was the last time they got celebrated? This isn't just about fairness, it's about retention. Banner discovered that operational teams often feel like second-class citizens because their wins don't come with a built-in scoreboard. A salesperson knows exactly when they've won. But when does a QA analyst "win"? When does a developer deserve applause? The solution: Create specific, measurable celebration triggers for every team. At Banner's company, the QA team celebrates after 15 defect-free website launches. Developers earn recognition when post-launch complaints drop below a certain threshold. When these milestones hit, the entire company stops for an impromptu celebration: lunch, games, genuine recognition. The message is clear: Excellence matters everywhere, not just in sales. The Priority Problem Nobody's Talking About Here's a scenario that plays out in small businesses every single day: Two departments both claim their project is "urgent." Leadership says everything is important. Team members make their own judgment calls. Nothing gets finished well. Sound familiar? Banner's solution is brutally simple: a documented, ranked priority list reviewed every Monday in leadership meetings. Not a vague strategic plan, a crystal-clear roadmap where Priority 1 gets 60% of team time, Period. The genius isn't in having priorities. It's in documenting them so thoroughly that your team never has to guess. Why Your Annual Values Exercise Is Failing Most companies spend hours crafting mission statements and core values that sound impressive on the wall but mean nothing on Monday morning. Banner tried that approach. It didn't work. His breakthrough? Replace everything with one memorable mantra that changes annually. This year's mantra: "Evolve." Not because it sounds good, but because the company was facing significant changes and needed a North Star that would reduce resistance. The team proposed options. They voted. They owned it. One word. Constantly reinforced. Actually used in daily decisions. That's more powerful than ten values nobody remembers. The AI Integration Nobody's Forcing Here's what doesn't work: Mandating AI adoption. Here's what does: Monthly training lunches led by internal AI champions who share success stories. Like the developer who optimized 100 lines of code down to 15 using AI. Banner uses AI daily for brainstorming, drafting, and iteration. His team adopts it at their own pace. The key? Provide tools and permission, then let success stories spread organically. The bottom line: Systems aren't about control. They're about clarity. They're about ensuring your operations team gets the same recognition as your sales stars. They're about making sure everyone knows what "winning" looks like, and actually celebrating when it happens. Because what gets documented gets scaled. What gets measured gets improved. And what gets celebrated gets repeated.

Daniel Tutt returns to continue our series on intellectuals. The hardest truths are the ones that feel personal. We take Robert Michels' “iron law of oligarchy” into the engine room of the SPD and ask why organizations built for emancipation so often drift into elite rule. From the paradox of proletarian vs bourgeois intellectuals to the cultural gravity of anti-socialist repression, we trace how habitus, patronage, and safety nets shape who gets to be “militant”—and who can't afford to be.Then we pivot to Jacques Rancière's worker poets and autodidacts, setting aesthetic emancipation against “scientific socialism.” Do movements need science to map capital, or dignity to sustain courage—and can they live without either? Along the way, we pressure-test managerial class narratives from Burnham and Michael Lind, explain why pluralist fixes fail without leverage over capital, and pull hard lessons from Chile's experiment: provisional leadership, worker coordination, and a sober reckoning with the violence embedded in class order.With mass politics hollowed out into cartel parties and charisma's glow fading, we sketch practical designs that resist capture: rotation and recall, sortition to break patronage, transparent conflicts-of-interest, democratic unions with real guardrails, and para-academic spaces that spread rigorous tools beyond the university's segregating incentives. Overproduced elites complicate the picture; some can bridge worlds, but leadership must be constrained by accountability and class rootedness, not résumé prestige.This is not resignation masquerading as realism. It's an argument for building institutions that expect drift and correct it in real time—where dignity anchors motivation and scientific analysis sharpens strategy. If that sounds like the synthesis you've been looking for, press play, save the reading list, and tell us: which guardrails would you make non-negotiable?

Rick Bennett and Kurt Francom announce the launch of the Gospel Tangents Network and its new community forum, LDS Faith Journeys.org, designed to support members looking for support with history, doctrine, social issues, etc. The hosts discuss reframing the concept of a “faith crisis” into a “faith journey” to remove shame, with Kurt offering his “scuba gear on a bicycle” analogy to explain how personal trauma or baggage can hinder religious practice. The conversation covers Kurt's experience as a bishop with a counselor who left the Church, his involvement in Warrior Heart boot camps, and the dangers of publicizing polygamy denial or the book Visions of Glory. Finally, Rick pays tribute to the late podcaster Troy Ables and previews upcoming guests for the network, hopefully including Janice Allred. https://youtu.be/5PayNjM0y1s 00:00 — Introduction and Launch Rick Bennett welcomes Kurt Francom, host of the Leading Saints podcast, to announce the launch of the Gospel Tangents Network. Rick introduces the network’s 2nd website, LDSFaithJourneys.org, a forum designed for members to discuss history, doctrine, social issues and other issues where members needs support. 05:00 — “Faith Crisis” vs. “Faith Journeys” Rick and Kurt discuss the terminology used for those struggling with the Church. Kurt argues that the term “Faith Crisis” carries a heavy, negative connotation of brokenness, whereas “Faith Journey” suggests a natural evolution of faith. Kurt emphasizes that avoiding the “crisis” label helps remove shame, which is often a tool of the adversary. Rick hopes people don't stay in crisis very long and move onto more productive faith journeys. 15:00 — The Scuba Gear Analogy Kurt introduces a metaphor for religious struggle: imagining the Gospel as a functional bicycle that some members try to ride while wearing heavy “scuba gear” (trauma, baggage, or specific upbringing.) He suggests that for some, stepping away or “hitting the reset button” is necessary to remove the gear before they can successfully ride the bike again. 25:00 — A Bishop's Heartbreak Kurt shares a personal story from his time as a bishop regarding his second counselor, an attorney and capable leader. After reading Richard Bushman's Rough Stone Rolling in a BYU religion class, the counselor struggled with the “raw and real history” of Joseph Smith and eventually removed his name from Church records. This experience taught Kurt that just because the “standard formula” works for him, it does not mean it works for everyone. 35:00 — Warrior Heart Boot Camps Responding to a listener question, Kurt discusses his involvement with Warrior Heart, a non-denominational Christian men's retreat. He describes it as a place to “strip away all of the baggage” of faith tradition and allow men to focus solely on their relationship with God. 45:00 — Polygamy Revisionists & Excommunication Rick asks Kurt about the trend of members being excommunicated for claiming Joseph Smith did not practice polygamy. Kurt argues that while people are free to believe what they want, using a public platform to claim Brigham Young was a liar while Joseph was innocent creates a movement the Church must address. Rick adds that D&C 132 and the sealing power are so intertwined that rejecting Joseph's polygamy creates a massive theological problem. Rick doesn’t agree with polygamy revisionists and encourages leaders to avoid taking away membership. He shares a conversation with a Jewish friend who said it is impossible to be excommunicated from the Jewish religion, even for murder. “Let God be the judge.” Rick wishes the LDS Church moved closer to that admonition. 55:00 — Visions of Glory A listener asks about the book Visions of Glory. Is it helpful or harmful? Kurt describes it as harmful because it creates unhealthy narratives about the “mechanics of heaven” and end-times obsession. He notes that it consistently sells well, alongside Under the Banner of Heaven, which shows a cultural fascination with these topics. 58:00 — Future Content and Wrap Up Rick hopes to have a future episode involving the Succession Crisis, featuring figures like James Strang and William Bickerton. They conclude by encouraging listeners to register at the new website https://ldsfaithjourneys.org to ask questions and find support.

What is the proper relationship between a preacher and his books? How can a minister prioritise the most helpful kinds of reading and study?  These and other questions were addressed by the Rev Iain H Murray in his address to the Bethlehem Pastors' Conference in early 1996.

This Sunday, Pastor Blake leads us in reflecting on how God fights for His people and calls them to trust Him in the midst of conflict. Through this passage, we are reminded that victory comes not by our own strength, but by relying on the Lord, who stands as our banner.     Want to watch a version of this message?

On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we spoke to a messianic believer who shared his own journey to discovering the truth about Jesus the Messiah. He also took us to the scriptures to show how the prophecies of the Old Testament were fulfilled in the life of Jesus the Messiah. We heard the story of how imprisonment in a foreign country led one man to the foot of the cross and a lifetime of service sharing the gospel to people all around the world. Then we talked about what led Peru to give rights to bees and why this is another dangerous step in efforts of the anti-humanist agenda. We took you back in time to the Island of Patmos as a highly respected bible teacher opened our eyes to the incredible blueprint of the future that God shared with John and how that plan can serve as a motivation for faith during our most challenging times. We all try to avoid suffering in our lives. But it comes to each our lives in one way or another. What if we can reframe how we look at these challenging times from a different perspective. Our guests, a husband-and-wife teaching team, took us into some of their own difficult times to share the lessons they learned about allowing God to use those times to shape our lives as He desires and for our own good. It may be 2026 but our need to understand how to use God’s word as a measuring stick of truth in the world today hasn’t changed. That’s why we once again invite you to another important conversation with our favorite husband and wife team who continue to teach us how to examine the news through the unfiltered lens of scripture.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Local journalism is shrinking in much of the country — but The Baltimore Banner is moving in the opposite direction. In just two years, the nonprofit newsroom has grown into Maryland's largest reporting operation, expanded beyond Baltimore, and built a fast-growing base of paying subscribers. Now, with their new editor-in-chief Audrey Cooper at the helm, The Banner is doubling down on a belief that many in the industry have quietly abandoned: scale still matters. In this wide-ranging conversation, the newsroom's new leader explains why growth, impact, and sustainability are inseparable — and what local journalism risks losing if it stops thinking big.

J. Gresham Machen (1881–1937) is noted for his earnest and powerful contending for the truth of the Bible and of the historic Christian faith in the early part of the Twentieth Century. Early on in his life, however, he almost fell prey to the liberalism that was sweeping through the seminaries and churches of the Western world. This encounter with liberalism, and the grace of God in preserving him from it, set him in good stead to warn others of its dangers.  This week, with the help of Nick Needham, we delve deeper into the story of J. Gresham Machen, a man whose courage and love of the truth we desperately need today.    Featured Resource:  – Nick Needham, 'Shapers of Christianity: J.

A hundred years ago, the great New Testament scholar J. Gresham Machen sounded the alarm about educational freedom in America. He believed that the state had begun to encroach in a most grievous way upon the sphere of the family, assuming duties it had no warrant to perform.  Machen's words of caution are most timely for us. We live in an epoch in which, informed by UN policy goals, western governments are showing fresh determination to become arbiters and guarantors of the education of each and every child. This week we look in detail at what is happening in the UK, and consider what a faithful Christian response to these pressures might look like.    Featured resources:  – Excerpt from J. Gresham Machen, 'Shall We Have a Federal Department of Education?' – Excerpt from Ned B. Stonehouse, J. Gresham Machen: A Biographical Memoir (1954, repr.

On December 17, 2025 the Alaska Watchman reported, “In a split decision, the Anchorage Assembly narrowly voted to erase all historical references to the famous Captain James Cook from the city's official seal.” In light of the new Municipal Seal, and the controversy about the removal of Captain Cook from it, we return to Season 1: Episode 5. I hope you enjoy this Encore Episode about Captain Cook originally titled, The Legacy of Colonialism Part 1: A Statue, a Banner, and a Covenant.   We want to hear your positive vision of the future!

Barbara Banner, a no-BS psychic and evidential trance medium known for delivering hilariously specific validations and deeply healing messages from Spirit, shares how her abilities opened dramatically later in life.We unpack what trance mediumship really is (and what it isn't), how Spirit provides evidence that's too specific to ignore, and why meditation is one of the biggest keys to developing intuitive abilities. The conversation moves into grief support, especially Barbara's heart-centered work with parents who've lost children. They also explore big-picture metaphysical questions: soul contracts, whether we truly choose our life experiences, how premonitions might relate to timeline shifts, Barbara's take on ghosts vs. crossed-over loved ones, and what she believes the afterlife feels like. Where to find Barbara: https://bannermedium.com/Send us a textSupport the showLove the show?

This week we review some of the ground we have covered on the podcast in 2025, and read an article from our editor, Mark G. Johnston, 'When Preachers Sing the Blues'.  The article reminds us that the charge to preach God's word is often, perhaps always, accompanied by a heavy spiritual burden. While the Lord's grace is sufficient for every preacher, that sufficiency is proved in and through very trying times. May this editorial be a spur to all to pray for ministers and elders, and an encouragement to them to keep going, even in the darkness.    Featured resource:  – Mark G.
