Men and Women working together in a committed relationship, that is a beautiful thing. It is one of heaven's clearest examples of what it looks like to mutually invest in each other for greater joy and satisfaction. God has used these relationships again and again to bring His heart, will, and kindness into the world.
Although Buddhism is widely considered a peaceful tradition, some of its monks incite hatred and slaughter. Sonia Faleiro explores this trend in her latest book The Robe and the Sword: How Buddhist Extremism is Shaping Modern Asia.Drawing on reporting from Sri Lanka, Myanmar and Thailand, she unflinchingly shows how extremists target minorities, highlights alliances between ethnic nationalists who demonise Muslims, and reflects on resistance to militant Buddhism.Together, we look at the roots of these disturbing developments, from traumatic impacts of British colonialism to political rivalries and economic grievances. In the process, we talk about the legacy of Aung San Suu Kyi, monastic misconduct in Thailand and self-immolation, among many other topics.Sonia is also the author of The Good Girls – documenting the killing of two Indian teenagers – and Beautiful Thing, about Bombay's dance bars. She has co-edited a collection of testimonies from Gaza and is the founder of South Asia Speaks, a mentorship programme for emerging writers.--
Mark Booker | Matthew 26:6-13 | At the beginning of the passion narrative, we encounter an unnamed woman whose extravagant act of devotion to Jesus challenges us to examine our own devotion. We explore what it looks like to walk in this woman's footsteps and to honor Jesus with our lives.
In this episode of Encouraging Prayer, James Banks and Robby Dilmore, discuss how to do a beautiful thing.

We have made a fundamental mistake. Because so many of our life transformations are birthed in seasons of deep pain, we've assumed that repentance IS the pain. We've turned “Repent!” into a religious threat—a shame spiral where we have to feel bad enough for long enough before God stops being angry.

"Straight From The Hat" The New Jersey born Ben Vaughn has put out close to twenty albums, including personal favorites of mine like Beautiful Thing, Mood Swings and Ben Vaughn Blows Your Mind. Aside from his own records, Vaughn has produced records by Ween, Los Straitjackets, Nancy Sinatra, and Charlie Feathers, had his songs covered by everyone from Marshall Crenshaw to Deer Tick and collaborated with the likes of Alex Chilton, Alan Vega, and Rodney Crowell. Vaughn loves punk and surf and rockabilly and folk and country and the blues, which explains the versatility of his collaborations. And if that wasn't an impressive enough resume, let's add these two career highlights: he penned the themes for both Third Rock From The Sun and That 70's Show. Oh, and he hosts the fabulous radio show The Many Moods of Ben Vaughn. Vaughn's discography demonstrates his musical dexterity, it also showcases his brilliance as a songwriter—filled with humor, wisdom and grace, Vaughn's work is always soulful, introspective and impossible to resist. But here's the thing about Ben Vaughn--he loves music. Whether it's noise rock or doo wop, he just loves taking it all in. And that open mindedness has gotten him in a lot of rooms with a lot of people and it's granted him access to a wealth of experiences. And those experiences can now be heard on Vaughn's bi-coastal, cross-generational music history podcast titled Straight From The Hat With Ben Vaughn. Along with co-host Laura Pochodylo (from Sun Records) on the program Ben shares stories about musicians, producers, and all the various characters from his career, with names drawn directly from a hat. www.benvaughn.org Instagram: @benvaughnmusic www.bombshellradio.com www.alexgreenbooks.com www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) Stereo Embers The Podcast: Instagram + BLUESKY: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com

Today's guest may be one of the most interesting humans on the planet. Whether it's doing 250 shows in a year, training with monks, not staying in one city for more than four days over a year and a half, exploring the world, or being a true pioneer in his music space — Chris Emerson, aka WHAT SO NOT, has done it all! What So Not is an Australian DJ and producer. He has just released a brand new collaborative EP The Quiet That Hurts with visionary Dutch artist Buunshin. Previously releasing their single Threads and a luminous new single Dancing In The Leaves featuring Lucy Lucy. Emerging in the 2010s, What So Not has evolved into an in-demand artist across the globe, renowned for his innovation and signature style that blends bass, trap and melodic hues into a unique and unforgettable package. Releasing his debut album Not All the Beautiful Things in 2018, What So Not resoundingly showcased his versatility and revolutionary prowess, with tracks like Be OK Again featuring Daniel Johns and Goh featuring Skrillex building formidable momentum that would ultimately lead to a 2022 sophomore album Anomaly. A genre-less and relentlessly experimental artist, What So Not has spent his career collaborating with the likes of Skrillex, RL Grime, Killer Mike and Toto, with his releases and potent live performance effortlessly translating over to the stage including at Coachella and Lollapalooza, headline shows in Europe, North America as well as on home soil, and also cultivating over 1.3 billion streams and counting worldwide in the process. Opening with Threads featuring renowned American singer-songwriter and composer Maiah Manser, The Quiet That Hurts EP is undeniably a short yet sharply sweet full-bodied journey in avant-garde sounds and blissful delivery, with the EP growing from its opening track into quiet rumination and lush, ambient urgency via Tragic, featuring Ukrainian singer vocalist Alina Pash, pulsing with emotion alongside a high-octane foundation. From here, the EP dives into a hypnotic yet propulsive flow state (Dancing In The Leaves feat. Lucy Lucy), before oozing into bewitching melodics balanced between moments of instrumental sparsity and animated drum and bass (The One feat. Aiko), and, ultimately, closing out with sprawling soundscapes fused with narcotic beats and unbridled serenity juxtaposed against emphatic and raw lyricism delivered by Mara Necia. Dancing In The Leaves is out now! The Quiet That Hurts EP is out now! What So Not is also touring America and Canada soon, check it out! We chat about surfing and what it does for his soul, his new EP, consciousness and deep chats with AI, the void, Aussie revival dance tour and helping upcoming artists, the state of the music industry, ego, jumping off the rocket ship, art and completion, quitting accounting, creating new sounds plus plenty more!

Podfic Text-to-Speech (TTS) reading of A Small, Beautiful Thing by krabapple Summary “Yeah, well. The world isn't being particularly kind to him right now. He says he's used to it, and I think he is in a way, but. Well, it's very close to home.” Sirius watched as Hope fiddled with her sleeve. She so rarely got fidgety, but Remus being vulnerable was tender territory for her, Sirius realized.“You think he's okay?” Hope asked softly.Sirius thought for a moment. He wanted to give her an honest answer. “I think so. I do. I'm not just saying that.”“I know,” Hope said. “You never say anything you don't mean.”Sirius barked out a laugh. “No, suppose I don't. He'd tell you not to worry about him.”“I know. It's silly. Of course I worry about him. He's my dad.”Sirius' heart squeezed at the thought of how much Moony's girl loved him. “Yeah, and for a long time it was just you and him, against the world.”“You didn't —““I'm not trying to get compliments. I'm just saying. You'd worry about him because to you, you're a team.”Hope nodded. “Team's gotten a little bigger, though.”***The team has gotten bigger — just in time for the events of Order of the Phoenix.Creators krabapple | Tumblr | AO3BurningAurora | Tumblr | AO3 | linktr.ee Kaleana | Tumblr | AO3 flowerhawk_highinthesky | Tumblr | AO3
They were the biggest songs of 2025 and unfortunately they were from 2024 but they just wouldn't go away, so much so that we had to use our 2025 in review year-end podcast to talk about them! Which overplayed song of the year AND the year before made you do backflips and/or lose control, Benson Boone's "Beautiful Things" or Teddy Swims's "Lose Control"?

Hunter Biden is an American attorney, businessman, and author and the son of President Joe Biden. Born in Delaware and shaped by profound personal tragedies and a diverse career in finance, policy, and international ventures. His mother and sister passed away in a car accident when he was young, and his brother, who survived the accident, later passed at age 46 from brain cancer. Married to Melissa Cohen, with whom he has one child. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in history from Georgetown University and earned a Juris Doctor degree from Yale Law School, before working briefly as a Jesuit volunteer in Portland, Oregon, and transitioning into banking and politics. Biden built his early career at MBNA America, then served at the United States Department of Commerce, focusing on e-commerce policy during the Clinton administration. In 2001, he co-founded the lobbying firm Oldaker, Biden & Belair, which worked on issues including online gambling. He served as a board member of Amtrak and is a founding partner of Rosemont Seneca Partners, an investment and advisory firm. He previously was on the board of BHR Partners, a China-based private equity firm, and from 2014 to 2019, he served on the board of Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian energy company owned by Mykola Zlochevsky, amid political investigations. In 2013, Biden joined the U.S. Navy Reserve as an ensign, but was discharged in 2014. Biden has publicly admitted to struggles with addiction, detailed in his 2021 memoir Beautiful Things, and has been sober since 2019. He faced public controversies, including the 2018 laptop scandal, and was under federal criminal investigation for tax matters and firearm possession. In 2024, he pleaded guilty to failing to pay $1.4 million in taxes from 2016 to 2019 on foreign income, which he spent on drugs and luxuries. In April 2025, President Joe Biden issued a pardon clearing Hunter of his federal gun and tax convictions. Biden continues to advocate for awareness of addiction through his personal story of recovery and resilience.

In Mark 14, we read that as the time for Jesus' crucifixion drew near, a woman came to Him and anointed His head with an alabaster flask of precious oil. While this heartfelt act of worship provoked the disciples' disapproval, Jesus celebrated her for doing “a beautiful thing.” Alistair Begg surveys the woman's action, the disciples' reaction, and Jesus' commendation, helping us to see that the only true pathway to lasting honor is to honor Christ. Bible passages: Mark 14:1-9

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by Mani — legendary bassist of The Stone Roses and Primal Scream, and one of the most influential figures in British rock history. From the euphoric rise of The Stone Roses — the band that defined a generation and changed the sound of British music — to the wild creative freedom of Primal Scream, Mani's journey has been nothing short of iconic. In this conversation, Mani looks back on the moments that shaped him — from the late-'80s Manchester underground, when The Roses' mix of psychedelic swagger and dancefloor groove ignited the Madchester movement, to recording their classic debut album and riding the wave of euphoria that followed. He opens up about the frustration of losing momentum during the long and bitter legal battles with Silvertone Records and FM Revolver, a period that tested the band's spirit but ultimately forged their defiant edge. He recalls the band's rebirth with Second Coming, his explosive years with Primal Scream, and the emotional highs of reuniting The Roses for the monumental Heaton Park shows — one of the greatest comebacks in modern music. Mani reflects on the brotherhood, the chaos, and the transcendence that came with it all — and what it means to live through those storms with joy still intact. "The four of us. Boom. There it is. The power of four. And it was beautiful." – Mani (on the magic of The Stone Roses' reunion) Mani also shares personal memories of the Beautiful Thing sessions, the deep connection between groove and spirituality, and how he's carried The Roses' sense of defiance and soul into everything since. With trademark humour and honesty, he talks about surviving the highs and lows of fame, the secret to keeping the spirit of rock 'n' roll alive, and why music, at its best, still feels like a resurrection. Listen to the full episode and join Mani as he reflects on a lifetime in music — from Manchester to the world — The groove, the chaos, the resurrection.
Mike Johnson, Ali Mac, and Beau Morgan react to the latest news, rumors, and reports in the NFL as they go In The Huddle.
Week 6 was pure chaos — the kind that makes you question if anyone actually knows football anymore. Farace and Tim are locked in, Melo's whereabouts remain a mystery (as usual), and Anthony's “highly tentative” tag means we'll believe it when we see it.The Bucs, Colts, and Patriots keep on rolling. Baker Mayfield has Tampa humming, Indy keeps stacking wins behind a balanced attack, and Mike Vrabel's Patriots are quietly climbing back into the AFC conversation, playing tough, disciplined football that's starting to look like vintage Vrabel ball. On the flip side, it was a week of monster upsets: the Giants, Panthers, and Falcons all took down favored opponents, leaving analysts scrambling and fans wondering what the hell just happened.The 49ers? Bad luck doesn't even begin to cover it. Fred Warner's season-ending ankle injury is the latest in a brutal run that's gutted their core. Across the league, the Chiefs look like they're back in business — Mahomes finally looks comfortable, the offense clicked, and the defense held firm when it mattered. The Eagles, though, are in free fall. Two straight losses, a 4–2 record, and an offense that looks completely lost — what's going on in Philly? And as for the Titans, the trainwreck continues. Brian Callahan is out as head coach after a miserable 1–5 start, and Mike McCoy steps in as the interim to try to stop the bleeding.We'll break it all down — the shocks, the collapses, and the mayhem — plus the return of Tim's “Fugazi or a Beautiful Thing.” Tim's bringing the teams, and the rest of us are bringing the smoke. Who's legit? Who's all hype? Expect plenty of yelling, arguing, and at least one “you're outta your mind” before it's over.Then it's on to The Unsportsmanlike Forecast — our Week 7 picks, where Farace goes with his gut, Tim rides the vibes, Melo (if he shows) stirs the chaos, and Anthony crunches the numbers that nobody listens to.And of course, the MLB Playoffs are cooking. The Dodgers, Brewers, Blue Jays, and Mariners are the final four, and it's all gas, no brakes. Farace will be raising a glass to celebrate the Phillies getting bounced — because nothing goes better with playoff baseball than a little Philly misery. #NFL #MLB #UnsportsmanlikeConduct #PopCulturePros
Week 5 was pure bizarro world. Favorites across the league went down left and right — the Eagles lost to Denver, the Bills tripped up at home to the Patriots, the Chiefs got edged by the Jaguars, and the Cardinals coughed up one late to the Titans. Nothing made sense, which makes it perfect for us. Farace and Tim are holding it down, Anthony's got the spreadsheets loaded, and as always — we think Melo might be here… but you know how that goes.Tim's dropping the debut of his new segment — “Fugazi or a Beautiful Thing.” He's bringing the teams, and we're bringing the debates: which squads are the real deal and which ones are fool's gold? After a week like this, there's a lot of Fugazi to go around.Off the field, we've got the headline that barely moved a pulse — Joe Flacco traded from Cleveland to Cincinnati. Great, now the Bengals can really corner the market on veteran backup QBs who peaked a decade ago. But the real drama's in New York: a new Saquon Barkley documentary drops Thursday on Prime Video before Eagles-Giants, revealing he requested a trade in 2023 and the team shut it down. More tension for a franchise that hasn't exactly handled stars with grace.We'll also break down all the Week 5 action — what those upsets really mean, which contenders we're cooling on, and which underdogs are rising. Then we roll into The Unsportsmanlike Forecast for Week 6 — our game-by-game picks, full of Farace's gut calls, Tim's vibe checks, Anthony's analytics, and whatever Melo decides if he actually shows up.Outside the gridiron, October's heating up fast. The MLB playoffs are on fire — Yankees clawing with the Blue Jays, Mariners on the brink, and the NL series getting tight. And the NHL season just dropped the puck last night, so we'll give a quick nod to the ice before diving back into football chaos.It's a packed episode — upsets, controversy, new segments, and the Week 6 picks that'll either make us look like geniuses or total clowns. #UnsportsmanlikeConduct #NFL #MLB #NHL #PopCulturePros
After enduring unimaginable loss and wrestling with profound questions, Job's story reaches its powerful conclusion. What does restoration look like after devastating trauma? How do we move forward when life has been shattered? The final chapter of Job's journey helps us discover what it means to live, not defined by our suffering, but as image bearers of God who can still build a meaningful legacy.

In our Season 6 premiere, James T. Morrison talks about how creative nonfiction provides an opportunity to discuss challenging topics like drug dependency and justice system involvement that counter the stereotypical portrayal of the addiction redemption arc. He and Jared also explore revision as a process to find your voice, Morrison's shift from a law school path to an MFA at age 40, the importance of accessible mentors over university prestige, and the underappreciated literary scene of Fresno.James T.

This weekend, Pastor Jim will hone in on BEAUTY as a key aspect of the faith. All beauty in our world harkens to the transcendent beauty of the divine. And to strive for a more just world is at the same time to strive for a more beautiful world. As a great theologian said “we must move people toward truth, goodness, and liberation through beauty. Frenetic and harried and labored activism won't shift people. We need to appeal to their dreams and hopes and sense of beauty.”
