Podcasts about best things

So often we focus our Lent on discipline, willpower, and perfection. But the goal isn't perfection. The goal is union. Fr. Mike Schmitz shares that the most powerful thing he ever did for Lent wasn't adding more prayers, books, or practices, instead it was choosing silence. See how this simple step can transform your Lent and bring you closer to the Lord than ever before!

Though Heidi published her book as a yes to herself, she didn't expect how her story of 10 years of dating, 104 dates, and finding love after divorce would resonate with everyone from happily married couples to 20-somethings navigating modern dating. Heidi's message is simple but powerful: sometimes what feels like the worst luck in the world is actually setting you up for the best thing that will ever happen to you.They explore:Why karma is real, and why you have to do more than just sit on your couch and hope for the bestThe idea of "Good luck, bad luck, who knows?" and how it changes everything when life hands us setbacks Why giving to the universe what you want to get back actually works (yes, even for finding a husband)This is a conversation about hope, resilience, and trusting that our negative experiences may be exactly what needs to happen to lead us to our next "yes!" Connect with Heidi:Instagram @LoveLessons104Get her book: Love Lessons: 104 Dates and the Stories That Led Me to True LoveHer Podcast: I Love You More________________________________________________________________________________________ Connect with Wendy: LinkedinInstagram: @phineaswrighthouseFacebook: Phineas Wright House Website: Phineas Wright House PWH Farm StaysPWH Curated Experience and Travel Interested in being a guest on the show?

He explains why, as the clean energy transition ramps up, we're moving from a world where energy comes from burning fuels to one where it will come from using technology.

Today's Top 5 at 5 runs through the five best things Jack Fritz has seen—just today.

4 O'clock Hour :00 – Carl and Mike get into some brief Falcons talk as they react to how the national media is taking Matt Ryan's comments in regards to not being the decision maker in regards to being the starting quarterback this season and turning it into the new president "not committing" to Penix Jr. They then get into some Georgia football talk as they react to the Bulldogs being viewed as the program which spends their recruiting money the smartest. :20 – Carl and Mike get back into some Falcons talk as they react to Stephen A. Smith saying he is hearing Michael Penix Jr. does not want to be under center due to not wanting to bend his knees. :40 - Carl and Mike get into Guy Talk as they discuss the reported average amount of money spent on alcohol for the Super Bowl, Drake Maye showing he's all about the slang and the Patriots planning to wear all white for the Super Bowl.

In this episode, we dive into Jill's powerful journey through competitive athletics — from being recruited for softball at a young age to playing at the Division 1 level, and ultimately facing the life-altering experience of being kicked off her D1 team. Jill opens up about the identity loss, shame, and resilience that followed, and how that moment became a catalyst for deep personal growth. We unpack the lessons she learned about self-worth, discipline, failure, and rebuilding confidence when everything you've worked for falls apart. This conversation is about more than sports — it's about what happens when your path doesn't go as planned, and how that detour can shape the strongest version of you.

It's time for the Top 5 at 5 once again, and today Jack takes a trip down memory lane by counting down the five best moments from the show during his time as host.

What would you think about a nephew marrying his aunt—his mother or father's sister—and starting a family together? It feels creepy, gross, incestuous. In fact, the Torah not once but twice bans nephew-aunt unions.Do not uncover the nakedness of your father's sister; she is your father's flesh. Leviticus 18:12You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister or of your father's sister, for that is laying bare one's own flesh; they shall bear their guilt. Leviticus 20:19Why am I telling you this? What am I leading with this unsavory subject? Because in this week's portion, the Torah abruptly slams the breaks on the telling of the Exodus story—Moses's initial demand to Pharaoh to let my people go, Pharaoh's rejection and demand that the Israelites make the same tally of bricks but gather their own straw, God's reaffirmation that God has heard their cry and will redeem them, and then the first seven of the ten plagues—the Torah slams the breaks on all this suspense before the plagues begin, to offer a genealogy. Genealogies are eye-glazing. One tends to pass over it to get back to the drama. That would be a mistake.This genealogy contains a bombshell:Amram took to wife his father's sister Jochebed, and she bore him Aaron and Moses…It is the same Aaron and Moses to whom the Lord said, “Bring forth the Israelites from the land of Egypt, troop by troop.” It was they who spoke to Pharaoh king of Egypt to free the Israelites from the Egyptians; these are the same Moses and Aaron. Exodus 6:20 and 26-27.Turns out, the dry genealogy is not so dry. It makes two points. One, Aaron and Moses are the fruit of a nephew-aunt union that we know to be creepy and incestuous, and that the Torah itself twice prohibits. Two, it is precisely and defiantly this Aaron and Moses that lead the Israelites out of Egypt.What is Exodus 6 trying to teach us?

Ryan is back for Christmas week to review the UPtv Christmas musical, The Best Thing About Christmas.ABOUT THE BEST THING ABOUT CHRISTMASThis faith-based musical follows the story of overcoming hardship through community, family, and the magic of Christmas. With uplifting moments, heartfelt performances, and original music, it's a celebration of hope, love, and meaningful connections during the holiday season.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR THE BEST THING ABOUT CHRISTMASDecember 20, 2025 | UPtvCAST & CREW OF THE BEST THING ABOUT CHRISTMASMegan Alexander as Kara HuntDerek Hinckley as DylanBRAN'S THE BEST THING ABOUT CHRISTMAS SYNOPSISThe movie kicks off with Dylan playing a tune for his wife, Kara, while she folds laundry. He keeps singing, “I'm gonna make you romantic,” and she starts singing along with him. Dylan is an aspiring musician, even though he's definitely getting a bit too old for this, especially with four kids — including 18-year-old Molly, who is also an aspiring musician.Molly goes with her dad to one of his gigs, where a record executive notices them and ends up signing them to a record label! Off to Nashville they go, despite Kara being really hesitant about the idea. But Dylan is the man of the house, and he makes the rules.On Christmas Eve, Dylan gets devastating news — Molly has been killed in a car crash. Dylan spends the next part of the movie acting like a bit of a dirtbag. The record label woman tries to make a move on him, and he realizes how much he's been screwing things up. In frustration, he smashes his guitar on the ground.He visits Molly's gravesite and has a heartfelt conversation with the pastor. Afterward, he apologizes to Kara and the rest of his family. He decides to hold a fundraiser in Molly's honor, encouraging everyone to bring warm clothes to donate — something Molly was very passionate about.The fundraiser is a smash hit. Dylan brings out Mark Wills and his youngest daughter to perform a song that he and Molly were working on before she passed, The Best Thing About Christmas. The family ends the night by putting up the Christmas tree together, happy and united. Watch the show on Youtube - www.deckthehallmark.com/youtubeInterested in advertising on the show?

The Best Things About Survivor 49 Survivor 49 takes center stage as Rob Cesternino and Mike Bloom dig into the twists, cast shake-ups, and most memorable moments from a season that refused to play it safe. With a focus on what really worked in Survivor 49, Rob and Mike look back at the season's biggest format shifts, including the return of two-tribe swaps, the end of “mergatory,” and smarter journey twists that gave players more choices and fewer automatic penalties. This is the episode for fans interested in re-examining the wild moves and standout personalities that defined Survivor's 49th outing. Rob and Mike start by revisiting the game's structural changes, pointing out the excitement—and occasional frustration—surrounding the double tribe swaps, more fluid gameplay, and meaningful opportunities for castaways to interact. They take a closer look at the cast's breakout stars, especially Rizzo, Sage, Jawan, Savannah, Soph, and Kristina, discussing how their alliances, rivalries, and emotional moments shaped the season’s narrative. The hosts break down Rizzo's clever idol maneuvers, Sage's surprising strategic game, the legendary Sage-Shannon handshake standoff, and the snake bite incident, each giving Survivor 49 its unpredictable flavor. Along the way, Rob and Mike highlight confessional gold, wild challenge wins, and the messiest Tribal Councils—exploring the unique tone and gameplay choices that separated this season from the rest. – Two-tribe swaps and bold format changes set the tone for an unpredictable merge – Rizzo's idol play—fake and real—sparked chaos and kept everyone guessing – Sage's rivalry with Shannon produced one of the season's most talked-about confrontations – The emotional beats: Jawan's journey from outsider to power player and Kristina's heartfelt challenge moment – Uli tribe's strong edit and core alliance, shifting post-merge dynamics, and underdog breakthroughs Will the twists and cast chemistry of Survivor 49 inspire future format experiments, or do the highs and lows serve as a cautionary tale? Can Rizzo's inventive approach or Sage's emotional gameplay become the new Survivor blueprint?

While humans were leaving the Stone Age and entering the Bronze, some Bristlecone pine trees grew from seeds to sprouts. They've been growing ever since. These 5,000-year-old pines are among the oldest organisms on Earth. Superlatives are also appropriate for the towering redwoods. Trees are amazing in many ways. They provide us with timber and cool us with shade, they sequester carbon and release oxygen, and are home to countless species. But they are also marvels of evolutionary adaptation. We consider the beauty and diversity of trees, and learn why their future is intertwined with ours.
