Show Notes: Elijah Siegler recalls the day of graduation on June 5, 1992, and the prominent promotion of the movie Patriot Games, which seemed at the time an ominous omen, as graduates began to navigate their post-grad journey. Elijah shares his advice to his kids and students: "You don't need to have your whole life post-college figured out. You just need one cool thing lined up, and that'll lead to another cool thing." Elijah describes his first post-graduation job as the editor of the Greece and Turkey book for Let's Go travel guides, which he found out about due to a last-minute cancellation. A Ticket to Israel and Traveling Adventures Elijah had previously been a researcher for Let's Go Pacific Northwest in the summer of 1989. After graduation, Elijah moved back to his parents' house in Toronto, Canada, and spent time reading and applying for jobs. Elijah cashed in his graduation gift from his grandparents, a ticket to Israel, and spent six months in the Middle East, including a solo tour of the Mediterranean. Elijah used his own guidebook for the Greece and Turkey parts of his trip and mentions Gary Bass, a classmate who edited Let's Go Israel and Egypt. Exploring the Middle East Elijah enjoyed both Greece and Turkey, finding Turkey to be one of the great travel destinations of the world. He highlights the unique experiences in Istanbul and Cappadocia, including staying in cave hotels and visiting a center for Sufi culture. Elijah reflects on his visit to Syria, noting the cultural richness and the sadness of seeing the country torn apart by civil war. Elijah moved back to Toronto, spent time with family, and eventually found a job in the non-profit sector in New York. Taking a Slow Boat to China Elijah describes his temporary job in New York, living in a basement in Chelsea, and the cultural experience of living in New York City. He recounts his decision to travel to Asia, including a trip to Japan, where he received a telegram about a job in China. Elijah took a slow boat to China from Kobe to Shanghai and then trains to Chengdu, where he taught English for nine months. He shares his experiences in Chengdu, including teaching and traveling around China, and his interest in Taoism. Opening the Door to the World's Parliament of Religions Elijah attended the World's Parliament of Religions in Chicago in the fall of 1993, which marked the 100th anniversary of the original event in 1893. He volunteered at the event, met various religious leaders, and was inspired to study religion academically. Elijah decided to pursue a graduate degree in religious studies, applying to various programs and eventually enrolling at the University of California, Santa Barbara. He describes the rigorous Religious Studies Program at UCSB and his initial research on Taoism in America. A Focus on Taoism Elijah explains the concept of Taoism, the indigenous religion of China, and its focus on the Tao, a non-personal divine force. He discusses the transmission of Taoist ideas to America through popular culture, such as the TV show Kung Fu and the book The Tao of Pooh. Elijah interviewed Chinese Taoist masters who came to America and taught Taoist techniques, such as martial arts and meditation. He completed his PhD on Taoism in America and began his academic career, moving from assistant to associate to full professor. The Americanization of Taoism Elijah contrasts Taoism with Buddhism, noting that Taoism does not have a missionary impulse and is spread indirectly through practices like martial arts. He discusses the Americanization of Taoism and the role of popular culture in shaping American Taoism. Elijah shares his research on the authenticity of Taoist masters in America and the concerns within the American Taoist community about who is a genuine master. He mentions the organizational structure of Taoism in China and the challenges of defining authenticity in American Taoism. Religion and Television Elijah discusses his research on religion and television, contrasting it with the study of religion and film. He argues that television's open narrative format allows for the exploration of religious change over time. Elijah highlights the religious themes in popular TV shows and how they reflect and shape American spirituality. He plans to publish a book on his theory of religion and television combining his previous essays on the topic. A Spiritual Journey Elijah shares his personal spiritual journey, growing up in a secular Jewish household and raising his children as Jewish. He expresses a strong affinity for Taoism but does not call himself a Taoist due to the formal initiation required in Taoist traditions. Elijah teaches a class on spirituality, exploring the rise of "spiritual but not religious" individuals and the history of spirituality in America. He emphasizes the importance of interfaith dialogue and understanding different religious traditions, both in his teaching and in his community involvement. Promoting Interfaith Understanding Elijah describes his involvement in the Charleston Interfaith Council, organizing cultural and educational programming to promote interfaith understanding. He organized a Jewish Muslim Dinner in 2017, bringing together Jewish and Muslim communities for a shared meal and conversation, which has evolved into the Spirited Brunch, a self-guided tour of different sacred spaces in Charleston with snacks, promoting interfaith dialogue and cultural exchange. He encourages others to replicate these initiatives in their own communities, emphasizing the importance of interfaith connections and understanding. Harvard Reflections Elijah was in the comparative study of religion that was drawn from other departments in the Divinity School, and he mentions professor Diana Eck, who was the chair of that committee on the comparative study of religion. She started something called the pluralism project in 1991 and that summer, Elijah was in the first cohort of student employees for that so I actually got paid to go to Los Angeles and study religious diversity there and inter religious dialog, and in particular, Buddhism.

In 1809 on Monday, April 24, a young man named Barnabas Bates came to Falmouth. The sermon he preached would spark a remarkable awakening. But it wasn't just in Falmouth: God was about to stir up revival in Sandwich, Mashpee, Barnstable, and on Martha's Vineyard... It's a story you have to hear. History may not always repeat itself, but it does tend to rhyme. This is the story of 1809, but it could also be the story of today. In this message, we'll explore what exactly God comes to do, and what an awakening looks like. We're praying for awakening: "God do it again… in me and on Cape Cod."

On this episode, we're joined by Brady Barnstable, Co-Founder and COO of Seven Sundays. Seven Sundays is a breakfast brand on a mission to restore human and planetary health, one cereal bowl at a time. Brady takes us back to the early days of muesli inspiration in New Zealand, which inspired him and his wife, Hannah, to leave fast-paced careers in NYC and bootstrap a new CPG brand. We get deep into the hard realities of sourcing regenerative and upcycled ingredients, the missing middle of processing infrastructure, and what it takes to scale a direct trade program at the farm level. Brady also shares how Seven Sundays has resisted the temptation to “certify and shout” — instead focusing on building long-term, meaningful grower relationships and systems-level impact. You'll hear why they're bullish on sunflowers, oats, and sorghum in the Midwest, how they're navigating club and conventional retail, and what their new “Come Afield With Us” campaign is doing to bring consumers along their regenerative journey. This episode is packed with candid insight, supply chain wisdom, and big-picture optimism. Episode Highlights:
On the afternoon of April 19, as the people of Plymouth and Barnstable counties heard of the battles at Lexington and Concord, they mustered their militia and sent them. .. to Marshfield. We talk with Patrick Browne of the Plymouth Antiquarian Society about the "almost battle of Marshfield," the only town outside of Boston that had a detachment of Redcoats. We hear about why the British were in Marshfield, and what the militia did to force them, and Marshfield's many loyalists out. We also hear about other events on the South Shore, and about how Plymouth is commemorating its local heroine, Mercy Otis Warren. Tell us what you think! Send us a text message!
Today's episode will highlight one of this shows founding missions in truly connecting to people from all over. This guest has traveled over 1,800 miles to join us for this show to tell his story. Barnstable PD Officer Brandon Sanders has a unique story in his journey to policing as his childhood could have very well created a different path but it was a chance meeting of a young police officer that became a big brother and showed him what the brotherhood was about. Brandon grew up in Hull Massachusetts and learned, at a young age, what domestic disturbances looked like, and he also had to “police” his home as child. This upbringing created a divide in the family and set the tone for the next several years as Brandon has not had contact with a part of his family, and a grandmother he has never met. Traveling to Dallas Texas wasn't just about sitting to record a podcast but also to go on a journey of forgiveness and openness as he wanted to seek out the grandmother that he never met. At the time of this recording Brandon only told us his mission to finally met his estranged relatives but had not taken that trip south of Dallas to find his grandmother. We are very happy to report that, after this recording, Brandon and his fiancé Chanelle went to the small town of Gun Barrell City and finally met his grandmother. This shows platform to bridge divides and have connectivity is something that we will always strive to achieve….. This story is more than just a cop war story. Enjoy!

Fill out the form HERE! - Embracing a Wholehearted Life: Insights from Pastor Kevin In a world filled with uncertainty and chaos, the quest for meaning and purpose can often seem like an uphill battle. In the latest episode of The Erik Allen Show, I had the privilege of sitting down with Pastor Kevin, a husband, father, and the lead pastor of The Cause Church in Massachusetts. He shared his incredible journey of faith, the challenges he faced, and the profound lessons he learned along the way. His upcoming devotional book, Wholehearted, set to release just before Easter, serves as a beacon of hope for those seeking to deepen their relationship with God. The Foundation of a Faith Journey Pastor Kevin's journey began in Barnstable, Massachusetts, where his family was among the first Brazilian immigrants in the area. Growing up in a small community, he experienced a childhood filled with love and challenges. However, his path to faith wasn't marked by a dramatic conversion story; instead, it was a gradual unfolding of understanding who Jesus really was. Kevin described his early life in the church, where he played drums and sang in worship. He initially aspired to be a physicist until a pivotal moment in high school redirected his focus towards music and ministry. His journey took him to Kentucky, where he sought to establish himself within a community of faith. It was in this season of searching and striving that he encountered grace in a profound way. The Moment of Surrender Many people have a defining moment that leads them to surrender their lives to Jesus. For Pastor Kevin, this moment came when he realized that he had been relying on his works and achievements to feel accepted by God. It was a burnout season—a time when he felt overwhelmed by the demands of ministry. After a heartfelt conversation with his wife, he decided to seek a church that would allow him to be rooted and planted rather than merely searching for a job. This journey of surrender led him to a church that opened his eyes to the concept of grace—the understanding that he didn't have to earn God's love. This revelation sparked a transformative journey, igniting his passion for ministry and a desire to share that same grace with others in his community. Maintaining Balance in a Busy Life As a pastor, husband, and father, Pastor Kevin wears many hats. The demands of ministry can often overshadow personal and family time. However, he shared valuable insights on how he maintains a healthy family life amidst these responsibilities. Setting Boundaries for Freedom

The remarkable story of the courage and suffering of the passengers aboard the Mayflower and the establishment of the Plymouth Colony. Postcard of the Mayflower On November 11, 1620, a 100 foot long cargo ship called the Mayflower entered what is today known as Provincetown Harbor, virtually on the tip of present day Cape Cod. This was the culmination of over two months at sea for 102 immigrants, originally from England, some of this contingent intent on establishing their own religious settlement in the New World, free from persecution from the British crown. Their Atlantic crossing was difficult, their time spent mostly below deck, lashed by gale driven waves that left them and their clothes and quarters in a miserably damp and chilly condition, their diet of hardtack, dried meat and watered down beer little comfort. Artist's rendition William Bradford William Bradford was born in March of 1590, in Austerfield, Yorkshire, England. The exact date is unknown although he was baptized on March 19 of that same year. Many members of his family died when he was a child, and Bradford was orphaned by the age of seven. Sent to live with two uncles, he spent most of his time as a farm laborer and his leisure activity consisted of reading and studying the Bible and other classic philosophical tracts. Intellectually curious, he was exposed to various sermons of area preachers who radically suggested that the Church of England was still inappropriately influenced by Catholicism. Edward Winslow Figuring he couldn't just abandon the Billington boy, Bradford ordered ten armed men, including Edward Winslow, to load up the small sailing ship used during exploration, take Squanto and another native interpreter, Tokamahamon and head to eastern Cape Cod and Nauset territory. A storm forced the boat to come ashore at what is now Barnstable, Massachusetts, on the northern shore of the Cape, about halfway across the lower portion of the peninsula. Mayflower passengers praying during Atlantic crossing The passengers were situated on the deck immediately located underneath the open air of the main deck. While they could hear waves and smell sea water, they were unable to view the horizon or the surface of the sea around them. Tossed practically on top of each other in makeshift compartments created by cloth curtains, the Separatist contingent strived to get along with each other, realizing that the stress of the voyage would only be increased by personality conflicts. Signing the Mayflower Compact This premature landing outside of territory designated by British authorities presented an immediate problem. Since the Stranger contingent on board was inclined to dispute any attempts at the Separatists controlling the governance of the colonists once they landed, assertions were made that as a result of the ship landing in an undesignated territory, they were free to do as they wished and were not obliged to respect any other authority. To address this situation several charismatic individuals on board the ship composed an agreement that set out specifically what laws and guidelines should be followed by the community. Containing ideas generally suggested mostly by William Brewster, this agreement, known historically as the Mayflower Compact also resulted from some of the formerly aloof Strangers like Christopher Martin understanding that for the colony to financially succeed and for the Adventurers to get any kind of return on their investment, all of the Settlers needed to work together. Massasoit Samoset identified the area as under the control of Massasoit, the Sachem or leader of a tribe known as the Pokanokets, and today as the Wampanoags. Massasoit resided in the nearby Narragansett Bay area of Rhode Island. The first Thanksgiving Although this festival was the impetus for the national American holiday known as Thanksgiving, the colonists at Plymouth would not have referred to their planned, three day event by that name, a term they applied instead to a much more serious religious rite acknowledging gratitude to the almighty. Instead, they celebrated with games, military exercises and vast amounts of food and drink. Only four adult women, including Susanna White Winslow were still alive to help cook the meal, along with their daughters and a few servants. Stamp honoring the Pilgrims Although on a daily basis, life continued to be harsh and frequently unforgiving, by the end of September, settlers at Plymouth Colony seemed to have turned a corner. They concluded the first harvest of all of the crops that they meticulously planted earlier in the Spring. Corn, Squash, Beans and even some amounts of barley and peas were stockpiled, a plentiful contrast to the dreadful deprivation of the previous winter. As massive flocks of ducks and geese migrated through the area, the settlers were able to hunt down as many of these birds as they wished, again putting aside a large quantity to help celebrate a tradition that was centuries old, a harvest festival, consisting of food, drink and good cheer. But this festival was also an acknowledgement of their special gratitude to their original ally, Massasoit, who Bradford described as arriving with five deer, oysters, a hundred participants and another addition to the festivities, wild turkey.

Why Barnstable is integral to offshore wind plans by CommonWealth Magazine
The New Hampshire Legislature recently passed a bill that will allow emergency services personnel to treat and transport police dogs. This new law is inspired by the story of Nero, a Massachusetts K-9 that was shot in the face while serving an arrest warrant in Barnstable in 2018. While there were multiple ambulances on site, none could legally help or transport Nero. A senior law enforcement officer made the decision to place Nero in the back seat of his cruiser and find a vet. During the ride a doctor from the SWAT team intubated Nero with a drinking straw. Nero survived that day, although his injuries forced an early retirement. Sargent Sean Gannon, Nero's handler, did not survive. The same man who shot Nero took Sgt. Gannon's life.

#83: In this episode of Just The Good Stuff we are joined by Hannah Barnstable, the CEO and Co-founder of Seven Sundays. (use my code RACHL30 for 30% off your order!) Hannah founded Seven Sundays in 2011 with four muesli recipes, an old Raleigh bike and trailer, some rented after-hours kitchen space at a friend's restaurant, and a crazy desire to flip the cereal aisle on its head. Hannah's food philosophy is simple: Food is an experience to be enjoyed and should remain as close as possible to the way Mother Nature intended it to be. When Hannah isn't off selling cereal, she can be found running around the Minneapolis city lakes (summer), skiing in the Northwoods (winter), browsing her favorite local grocery stores or in the kitchen making food for her sweet family of five. Seven Sunday's muesli and cereal is on a daily rotation in mine and my children's breakfast line up (truly - we eat it daily). We love the products and brand so much our venture fund grt sht ventures has invested into the company. Here are some of the topics discussed in this episode: Why start a breakfast cereal company? Hannah's previous career in finance before launching Seven Sundays What makes Seven Sundays product line up some of the best in the breakfast cereal aisle? The importance of the ingredient list and being an earth friendly brand Some insights to being a female entrepreneur in the food and beverage space How the industry has evolved over the past decade Seven Sundays latest product line the Oat Protein Cereal + SO much more!
