Bigfoot Called Out His NameA newly trained deputy begins his first solo patrol on New Year's Day in 1980. What starts as a quiet shift turns tragic when he responds to a call about two missing children near Morgan Creek. He follows their footprints to a hole in the ice, where a rescue team later recovers their bodies—siblings, ages 11 and 9, who drowned. Twenty years later, on another snowy New Year's night, the now-veteran deputy hears a dispatch report about two wet children walking near the same bridge. Another officer searches but finds no children—only footprints that mysteriously end near an old, abandoned farmhouse that once belonged to the drowned children's family. Believing the sighting to be supernatural, the deputy concludes the caller likely encountered the ghosts of the long-lost siblings. The farmhouse has since been torn down, and the bridge rebuilt, but the area remains beautiful—and haunted by its past.Join my Supporters Club for $4.99 per month for exclusive stories:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/what-if-it-s-true-podcast--5445587/support
In the late nineteenth century, few people had access to the great sequoia groves in the US, and many didn’t believe the reports of the massive trees. In 1892, however, four lumberjacks ventured into the Big Stump Forest in California and spent thirteen days felling the grand tree named Mark Twain. Twain was 1,341 years old, three hundred feet tall, and fifty feet in circumference. One observer described Twain as a tree “of magnificent proportions, one of the most perfect trees in the grove.” They shipped part of this remarkable beauty, now destroyed, to the American Museum of Natural History where everyone could see a sequoia. The reality, though, is that we can’t prove every truth with our eyes alone. Hebrews describes faith as “confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see” (Hebrews 11:1). Faith isn’t irrational or a fit of fancy, because the whole story is grounded in a person—Jesus—who has entered human history. Faith includes human senses and reason, but it’s not limited to them. Faith requires more. “By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command,” Hebrews says, “so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible” (v. 3). It’s often difficult to trust what we can’t touch or see or completely comprehend. But our faith in Christ, made possible by the Spirit, helps us to believe more than we can see.
Be inspired to embrace the language of believing so you can come into your promised land.
In this episode, I'm breaking down one of the biggest truths about getting into Flight Nursing:Results begin when you begin.You don't wait to feel ready.You don't wait for motivation.You create momentum by starting—even when it feels early.And right after you decide?The obstacles always show up.This is where most people get stuck, confused, and stay in limbo.The biggest mistake I see? Believing you need to wait: Until you graduate Until you finish orientation Until you complete a cert or course Or the biggest mistake of all… waiting until you have “enough experience” at the 3-year markBy then, it's too late.That's when you meet the people who already started years ago—doing ride alongs, making connections, building relationships, and getting on a company's radar long before the job posting appears.As soon as you know you want Flight, that's when you map out your plan and begin.And no—starting early doesn't mean “more work.”It actually simplifies everything.Inside The Flight Prep Academy, I teach you exactly which actions matter, how to make them fit your life, and how to focus on the things Flight companies actually care about.But none of it works until you start.Just like you can't take a manual car straight into 5th gear—you have to put it in first to build momentum.Here are the thoughts I want you to practice:Flight is possible for me to start working toward now.I'm creating my future in Flight right now.And yes… the controversial but true ones:Flight nurses don't wait for permission.Flight nurses don't wait to begin.Waiting doesn't get you closer.Beginning does.Flight is for the person who wants to push themselves, grow, and find out what they're capable of—not because they don't have any doubt, but because they take action despite it.If that's you, Flight is for you.And the best time to start is now.Join the Mapping Out Your Plan WebinarDecember 15th @ 12:00 PSTAnd if you're ready to map out your plan, start doing ride alongs, and prepare confidently for Flight interviews, come join us inside The Flight Prep Academy.Register for Free Training HEREJoin The Flight Prep Academy HERE

Today as we worship around our Lord's table, as we celebrate with our family their bold declaration, as we honor our King, remember His sacrifice, remember His crucifixion is so much more than our passage to Heaven. Days like today acknowledge that we are “born again” new creations in Christ! John 3:3, 5-6 (NKJV) “Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” v.5-6, Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.”
Raising Kids with a Faith Rooted in Love—not Fear In this tender and hope-filled episode, Wendy talks with author Mariko Clark and illustrator Rachel Eleanor, creators of The Book of Belonging—a reimagined children's Bible centered on original goodness, emotional literacy, inclusive imagery, and a deeply compassionate view of God. Together, they explore what it means to raise kids with a faith rooted in love, equity, and belonging—especially when you're navigating your own journey of healing from high-control theology or rethinking inherited beliefs.

This week on Sexual Assault Survivor Stories, I sit down with Jason Patrick Berry, author of the brave and unflinchingly honest memoir Secrets Beneath. Jason's story is one that quietly breaks your heart and then slowly helps rebuild it. On the outside, his childhood looked perfectly normal, even picturesque. But behind closed doors lived a painful reality of abuse, secrecy, and survival that no child should ever have to experience. In Secrets Beneath, Jason pulls back that veil and walks us through the lasting impact of trauma, including post trauma stress, anxiety, and emotional isolation, while also showing what it looks like to keep choosing healing day by day. This conversation is personal, raw, and deeply human. Born and raised in Connecticut and now living in Florida with his husband Shaun and their two beloved dogs, Jason brings not only his survivor voice into this space, but his heart for wellness, recovery, and holistic self-care. He speaks openly about how reconnecting with nature, creating mindful routines around health, and learning to nurture his body and nervous system have become essential parts of his healing journey. There is no polished recovery narrative here, only an honest reflection of what healing truly looks like. Layered, imperfect, courageous, and ongoing. The kind of truth that lets listeners exhale and quietly think, "I am not alone in this." What struck me most in this conversation is Jason's willingness to be completely seen. Not as some inspirational figure wrapped up in a neat storyline, but as a real person still walking the road of healing, still learning, and still refusing to allow his abuse experiences to define the rest of his life. His openness about living with anxiety and frequent memory activators brings powerful validation to experiences so many survivors silently hold inside. Jason does not minimize the pain, but he also refuses to ever give up hope. His voice is gentle, steady, and deeply relatable in all the best ways, and the motivation is to always help others who've experienced similar abuse. This episode reflects the very heart of Sexual Assault Survivor Stories. Amplifying survivor voices, dismantling silence, and reminding every listener that healing is not only possible, it's allowed. Jason shares the truth many are afraid to speak aloud, and in doing so creates space for others to discover their own courage. I am genuinely grateful for his vulnerability and for the trust he placed in this platform to tell his story. Secrets Beneath is not just a memoir, and this episode is not just an interview. It is a conversation that invites others to speak, to heal, and to believe that life can hold more than what trauma ever tried to dictate.

In this episode we explore the Advent theme of Hope. while working through Jonah 1:1-8. This passage explores Jonah fleeing from God's call, and the great storm that Jonah encounters. From our conversation on Jonah 1:1–8, we see that Jonah's limited understanding of God's presence may have shaped his reluctance to respond to God's call. Believing he could escape God, Jonah attempted to flee from the Lord's presence. Yet the hope in this passage is unmistakable: God is ever-present, and God pursues. God pursued Nineveh through Jonah, and God pursued Jonah through the storm. Just as God sought to draw near to Nineveh by inviting Jonah to participate in restoring their relationship through his prophecy, God still desires to draw near to all people today. The question, then, is this: Are we willing to answer God's call in our own lives and allow ourselves to be instruments of relational restoration?

Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech Training and Pico TechnologyWatch Full Video EpisodeIn this episode, Matt uses The Matrix—especially the line “there is no spoon”—as a metaphor for the invisible cages we build in our own minds. He connects the film to social constructs, substance use disorder, self-limiting beliefs, and the hard, messy reality of change.Matt unpacks what it really means to “take the red pill”: leaving the comfort of your personal matrix, enduring an initial season of discomfort or even suffering, and slowly rebuilding your ability to cope, grow, and demand better—from yourself, your relationships, and your career.Key Topics Covered“There is no spoon” and social constructsThe Matrix as a metaphor for our personal belief systems, not just a sci-fi simulation.How ideas like “I can't,” “they won't let me,” and “this is just how it is” form our own private matrix.Money as a clear example of a social construct: it only works because we all agree it has value.Substance use disorder & the red/blue pill choiceReframing the Matrix pods and simulation as a stand-in for addiction and coping mechanisms.Drugs (or other coping tools) as a “cure” that works incredibly well… until the bill comes due.The “red pill” as the decision to leave a destructive coping mechanism and face reality.Why life often gets worse at first when someone chooses recovery—gray, flat, painful—before it gets better.Atrophy, discomfort, and rebuilding capacityNeo's physical atrophy as a metaphor for emotional and coping atrophy after long-term use.Many people aren't using to “get high” anymore—they're using just to feel normal.Relearning how to feel feelings at full intensity without a chemical buffer.Self-imposed limits and hidden capacityThe Matrix training scenes: bending the rules as a metaphor for challenging self-imposed limits.The “70% wall” idea from Navy SEAL training—quitting when there's still gas left in the tank.How often we defeat ourselves before we even truly try.The Kung Fu (David Carradine) lessonFlashback scene with the “acid pool” that turns out to be water.Believing in the danger so completely that you fail before you start.How often we do the same thing with exams, careers, and life decisions.Technicians, tests, and career ceilings“I'll never pass A6” / “I'll never get that cert” as a self-fulfilling prophecy.Questioning whether your limits are real, or chosen.Practical self-inquiry: What can I do to change this belief? What actions can I take?Relationships, work, and what we tolerateStaying in unhealthy relationships (romantic, friends, employers, clients) because “this is the best I can do.”Starting with your own role: being a better spouse, friend, or employee and expecting better treatment in return.The trap where employers say, “If they acted like good employees, I'd treat them well,” and employees say, “If they treated me well, I'd act like a good employee”—and nothing changes.Dutch Silverstein's perspectiveIt's important to treat people the way you want to be treated.But for sure: never treat someone the way you don't want to be treated.Taking the red pill in real lifeThe “red pill” as a choice, not a daily supplement.Expecting the initial result of that choice to feel worse before it feels...

Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 Disappearance | Paranormal Podcast In this episode, we dive deep into one of aviation's most perplexing mysteries: the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370. On March 8, 2014, the Boeing 777 vanished from radar just 40 minutes after takeoff with 239 people on board, scheduled to fly from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. We walk through the timeline of that fateful night—from the captain's routine "good night" at 1:00 AM to the plane disappearing completely at 1:20 AM—and explore the frantic scramble that followed as Malaysian officials, search teams, and grieving families desperately sought answers. What makes this case so compelling is the mountain of conflicting evidence: military radar detected an unidentified object crossing Malaysian airspace in a bizarre zigzag pattern, satellite systems pinged the aircraft for six hours after it vanished, and family members reported that calls to passengers' phones rang instead of going straight to voicemail. We examine multiple theories that have emerged over the past decade, each with its own compelling evidence and glaring holes. From the discovery of a suspicious flight simulator in the pilot's home that matched the plane's alleged route, to debris found on beaches thousands of miles away, to claims of Russian hijackers and American military involvement—nothing adds up cleanly. We discuss the work of independent investigators, including a group of engineers who theorized how someone could deliberately make a jetliner disappear, and "Cindy" from the Tomnodders who claims to have found wreckage in the South China Sea that was largely ignored.

Believers are God's children. Knowing who we are impacts our daily living in everything concerning us as well as how we should see ourselves. We're no longer our old selves, but are now righteous, redeemed, holy, and perfect in Christ. Believing this changes the way we think, which in turn changes our behavior for the better. Because of what God did, we can now dispense with struggling through self-effort to become what we already are right now and simply embrace it.

Be inspired to bless and not curse what God is trying to bless. This powerful word from Ps. Marco encourages us to both trust and also believe in the promises of God for the miraculous,
Brokenness in the Bible is not a curse but a doorway to grace: it teaches us humility, repentance, and dependence on God, opening the way for healing and transformation. • Brokenness as Humility and Repentance Psalm 51:17 declares, "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, You will not despise." This shows that God values a heart that admits weakness and turns back to Him Bible Hub +1. • Brokenness Precedes Renewal The Bible often portrays brokenness as the moment before restoration. Like clay in the potter's hand, our self-will must be "crushed" so God's Spirit can reshape us into something stronger and more faithful ctoministrie.... • Types of Brokenness Scripture highlights different forms:• Spiritual brokenness – when sin separates us from God, leading us to repentance. • Emotional brokenness – grief, loss, or disappointment that draws us closer to God's comfort. • Physical brokenness – weakness or suffering that reminds us of our dependence on His strength believeinthe.... • God's Nearness in Brokenness Psalm 34:18: "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." Brokenness is not abandonment—it is the place where God's presence is most intimate christianity.... • Transformation Through Brokenness Brokenness is often the soil where growth happens. It strips away pride and self-reliance, teaching us to trust God fully. As Paul wrote, "When I am weak, then I am strong" (2 Corinthians 12:10), showing that weakness becomes strength when surrendered to Christ biblestudyfo.... Practical Takeaways • Brokenness is a spiritual posture: It's not about despair but about openness to God's healing. • God uses brokenness to shape character: It's the refining fire that produces humility, compassion, and resilience. • Brokenness is communal: Sharing our brokenness with others fosters empathy and strengthens community. • Hope is always present: Brokenness is never the end—it is the beginning of restoration. Reflection Brokenness is the paradox of faith: what feels like loss becomes the very place of gain. It is where pride is shattered, and grace flows in. In ministry, storytelling, or psalms, brokenness can be framed not as defeat but as the sacred space where God rebuilds us into vessels of hope and light.
God promises to bless us so that He can use us to bless others. Believing in God's promises about tomorrow changes the way we behave today.

Sincerity doesn't save anyone. You can be very sincere and very wrong. Believing in Jesus is the only way of salvation.
Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks!Good morning! Thank you for taking a few minutes to listen. If you are interested in the Daily Bible Devotional, you can find it at the links below:Amazon - (paperback, hardcover, and Kindle)YouTube Video Introducing the ContentFeel free to reach out with any questions: emersonk78@me.comI John 5 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and those who love the Father will also love His children. Love for God is demonstrated by obeying His commands, which are not burdensome. Those born of God overcome the world through faith. Jesus came by water and blood, and the Spirit testifies to this truth. There are three that testify: the Spirit, the water, and the blood, and all agree. Believing the testimony God has given about His Son leads to eternal life. John writes so that believers may know they have everlasting life. He encourages confidence in prayer, especially regarding God forgiving those who battle sin. Christ will protect His people from the evil one, saving their souls, and challenging them to keep themselves from idols. Our faith in Jesus gives us true identity and lasting strength. When we believe He is the Son of God, we adopt a new way of living, characterized by love, obedience, and confidence. Loving God means caring deeply for His people and expressing that love by following His commands. These commands are not burdens; they are invitations to walk in freedom. We can approach God in prayer with boldness, knowing He hears us as we pray for others and ourselves. Jesus is our helper and protector. In His name, we are called to guard our hearts against anything that pulls us away from Him. As we stay rooted in Christ, we find victory, clarity, and the life He promises. Abiding Lord, we praise You for the adoption You provide to believers. We believe Jesus is the Christ and embrace our identity as Your children. Help us remain joyful in Your victory and keep Your commandments with willing hearts. Thank You for the undeniable testimony of Jesus, His baptism, His death, and the Spirit's testimony about Him. We will pray with confidence through Jesus. We will appeal to His mercy on one another's behalf and enjoy protection through our victorious Savior. Please help us flee idolatry in every place and keep our eyes on Your Son, now and for eternity. Thought Questions: Do you believe this: “whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God”? If so, what about obedience, love of others, and faithfulness? What does it mean to say that the Spirit, the water, and the blood testify of Jesus? What is the most impactful evidence of Jesus to you? Are you confident of eternal life? Why do you think so many Christians struggle with assurance of salvation? What would you tell them?
Bizarre News - November 2025 | Paranormal Podcast In this month's Bizarre News, we bring you a collection of cutting-edge scientific discoveries and paranormal mysteries that blur the line between science fiction and reality. We kick things off with the interstellar comet 3I/Atlas, which has sparked intense debate in the scientific community after Harvard physicist Dr. Avi Loeb identified twelve significant anomalies suggesting it might not be a comet at all—but potentially a nuclear-powered alien spacecraft. With NASA pointing fifteen different space missions at this object, including the James Webb Space Telescope, we explore the strange characteristics that have scientists puzzled: unexplained frontal glow instead of a traditional tail, industrial alloy-like composition, and a retrograde trajectory with only a 0.2% probability of occurring naturally. We also dive into groundbreaking warp drive research that suggests faster-than-light travel may actually be theoretically possible, and surprising findings that humans possess "remote touch" abilities previously thought to exist only in animals like sandpipers, allowing us to sense buried objects without direct contact. On the paranormal side, we investigate which state claims the title of most haunted in America—and the answer might surprise you. Using data compiled from over 1.8 million ghost encounter records across social media platforms, books, and paranormal databases, researchers determined that New York takes the crown with its perfect storm of old stone buildings, high population density, and centuries of accumulated energy. We also share a compelling Bigfoot sighting from Pennsylvania's I-80, where a witness observed a tall, dark figure with a slender build gliding effortlessly across four lanes of highway and over a guardrail in a matter of seconds, leaving them with an unforgettable encounter story they'll be sharing for years to come.

In this deep and thought-provoking episode, Dr. Niraj Poudyal, a respected academic researcher and philosopher, discusses Atheism, Secularism, and the relationship between Science and Religion. The conversation begins with his personal interest in atheism, followed by an exploration of what atheism truly means—beyond misconceptions that it's simply “not believing in God.” Dr. Poudyal explains how religion and culture overlap, the belief in karma and reincarnation, and how changing religion isn't the same as becoming an atheist. He offers insights on the origin of religion, the historical situation of atheism, and how ideas of superpower and energy relate to spiritual and scientific thinking. In the second part, Dr. Poudyal breaks down secularism, explaining its importance in maintaining balance between faith and freedom. He also addresses morality for atheists, challenging the notion that ethics require religion. The discussion closes with reflections on science, reason, and human values. Whether you're religious, spiritual, or skeptical, this conversation helps you understand the spectrum of belief, atheism, and secular thought in a broader human and Nepali context.

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – What's worse than not knowing the truth? Believing it when someone tells you the truth is a lie. Jesus said the truth will set you free. If that's true, then the lie you call the truth will enslave you. So why is the lie of “transgender” treated as the truth? A boy cannot become a girl, and a girl cannot become a boy. Yet today, we have people fighting to protect women in...
Most people think marriage is about love. James Sexton knows better — it's about survival. After handling 2,000+ divorces over 25 years, this legendary divorce attorney has seen it all: the affairs that start with attention instead of sex, the gestures that can end marriages, and the brutal truth that 53% of marriages end in divorce. In this raw, unfiltered conversation, James breaks down why half of all marriages fail and what the other half is doing right. From the real reason people cheat (hint: it's not what you think) to why Instagram is an infidelity-generating machine, James reveals the patterns that predict divorce with scary accuracy. We dive into the economics of relationships, why prenups are actually love letters, and how a dog can teach you more about marriage than any therapist. He shares the craziest prenup he's ever seen (10 pounds = $10,000 less in alimony), why "happy wife, happy life" is terrible advice, and the one question that softens even the most bitter couples. But this isn't just about what goes wrong — it's about what goes right. James explains why second marriages have better odds, how to fight fairly without weaponizing intimacy, and why the male equivalent of flowers might be exactly what you think it is. If you've ever wondered why some couples make it while others crash and burn, or if you want to save your relationship before it ends up in a lawyer's office, this episode will change how you think about love, commitment, and the bravest thing any human can do.

In this special Terrified Together collaboration with our friends Dave and Sarge from Cryptid Cocktail Party, we share two intense listener-submitted encounters that blur the line between tragedy and the paranormal. Our first story involves Levi's harrowing story from Wales, where a routine Costco trip turned into a real-life Final Destination moment when scaffolding from an unsecured truck pierced through their windshield on Junction 28. The pole sliced between Levi and their sister, leaving Levi with a gashed arm but somehow sparing both their lives in what felt like an impossible near-miss. Then, we jump into Jeanette's unsettling experience from Connecticut in 2016, when she stayed late after soccer practice and made the mistake of walking back to the practice field alone in the dark to retrieve her forgotten phone and purse. What started as an eerie feeling of being watched escalated when a young boy came running toward her in the empty parking lot, eventually asking "can I come with you?" in a way that left Jeanette deeply uncomfortable. Though she mumbled agreement while considering the "good karma" for an upcoming game, the unremarkable boy vanished the instant she turned toward her car—and that's when things got worse at home.

Building a new wine category is not something that is easy to plan. It often is more like a startup, where belief in the product and market is just as critical as a defined strategy. That's how Luisa Amorim, CEO of Amorim Family Estates, launched Mirabilis into being an iconic still white wine of the Douro Valley. She outlines priority markets, views on scores and social media, and her belief in word of mouth marketing. Detailed Show Notes: Luisa's background: hospitality, marketing; started in the family business at 23; spent 3 years in a global rotation programAmorim Family Estates3 regions in Portugal (Douro, Dao, Alentejo)Each property has its own winery and team and does hospitality with a culture and food componentDivision of bigger Amorim cork company and familyMirabilis (part of Quinta Nova)Produced white wine from the beginning (2000)First an unoaked white, then a reserve, then Mirabilis (Latin for “marvelous”)White was not popular in Portugal at the time, production processes were not set up for whitesTook 2 years of experimentation, 1st vintage 2011 (2,000 bottles)Whites still have pricing barriers vs redsDouro white differentiation: close to Atlantic, schist soils, native grapes, and blendingIntroducing Douro whites: older people were harder to get on board, younger were more open to explorationNeed to have belief in product and its viability over having a detailed marketing planMarketing focus has been on teaching Portuguese wines (including culture and traditions)Geographic focus for MirabilisPortugal 1st - need to be well respected in the home countrySwitzerland, Benelux (lots of Michelin Star restaurants)Not Scandinavia (targeting higher end of the market)Brazil (speak Portuguese)USA, Canada5 people, based in Portugal, work internationally; travel 3-5x/year to each marketWhile design and packaging, price positioning are important, the sales team and their relationships are critical in the wine industryHaving a good wine is more important than press or reviews, people are paying less attention to reviewsConsumers now look at peers and friends for recommendations and they need to trust the wine producerSocial media - “should be doing more” - hiring younger people into marketingWine marketing needs to capture the “soul” of the wineMake things simpler, less technical talkMore provocative, “sexy” vs saying the same thing all wineries sayHas not done any paid advertisingRelies on word of mouth (people taste, buy, and talk) and partnerships Hosted on Acast.

This week on Sexual Assault Survivor Stories, I'm joined once again by a guest whose voice made a deep impact the first time she appeared on the show. For this episode, she's choosing to remain anonymous and will be known as "Ann"—a decision that becomes increasingly meaningful as you hear why she reached out to return. Ann came back to talk about a part of the survivor experience that rarely gets acknowledged: what happens inside a person after they share their story publicly, and how the emotional ripple effects can show up long after the recording ends. In this conversation, Ann walks us through the internal shifts, realizations, and unexpected reactions she went through after her initial episode aired. She wanted to help future guests understand that the process of speaking about trauma—especially sexual assault—is powerful, and with that power comes impact. Her goal wasn't to warn anyone away from being a guest, but rather to shed light on the importance of preparing emotionally, mentally, and spiritually for what it feels like to bring such a personal story into the world. Her honesty lays out a roadmap that many survivors will find both grounding and validating. If you've ever considered sharing your story on this show, Ann's insight might be one of the most supportive gifts you could receive. This episode doesn't discourage—it equips. It empowers. It gives language to the quiet places survivors often navigate alone. And as always, the Sexual Assault Survivor Stories family welcomes every story with compassion, respect, and the unwavering belief that survivors deserve to be heard, believed, and supported every step of the way. An important side note: if you're finding value in this show and these amazing episodes, please take a moment to leave a 5-star rating on your podcast platform. AND, follow SexualAssaultSurvivorStories on Instagram, then, please send me a note of support. I can't tell you how much your emails mean to me—they fuel my passion to keep this podcast going. And if you're a victim or survivor and are ready to tell your story in order to help yourself or someone else heal, let me know, and we can start a conversation about the possibility of you being on the show. Here's my email address: dave@sasstories.com Thank you to all of you who have reached out to me already. Just provide me with a phone number where I can reach back out to you…because I like to talk to people who are interested in guesting. And please keep those emails and texts coming…I truly look forward to hearing from you!

Bernard Montgomery, supported by his patron Alan Brooke, took command of the demoralized Eighth Army in August 1942. He immediately planned an attack at El Alamein, believing the best defense was attack. Rommel was suffering from chronic health issues, including high blood pressure and stomach problems, stemming from exhaustion and poor self-care due to his constant presence with the troops. Patton entered the conflict via Operation Torch, but rivalry with Montgomery quickly arose during planning for Operation Husky (Sicily), as neither general was initially impressed with the other.
