Today on The Bible Study Hour with Dr. James Boice, we'll consider how a lowly stable became a holy place in an amazing story, full of wonder and paradox.

Det har taget 22 år, men nu er Marx' økonomiske hovedværk endeligt på vej i trykpressen. Efter at alle har ventet på ham så længe, er Marx nu frygtelig utålmodig for at værket skal komme ud over rampen. I bogen blotlægger Marx kapitalens indre bevægelser. Med hjælp fra Dante og Shakespeare giver Marx kapitalens forskellige dele stemme og fører som en anden Virgil læseren gennem det kapitalistiske helvedes forskellige cirkler. Nu er spørgsmålet om nogen vil læse mesterværket? Historien om Marx fortæller i ni afsnit historien om den revolutionære filosof Karl Marx, fra hans fødsel i Trier i 1818 og til hans død 64 år senere i London. I den periode gik Marx fra at være indflydelsesrig redaktør til at blive en ignoreret polemikker. Fra at være en marginaliseret aktør på den politiske scene, til at lede en nærmest verdensomspændende organisation der indgød de herskende eliter med eksistentiel angst. Og i slutningen af hans liv begynder hans ord at få nærmest profetisk kraft.

Send us a textHello everyone, I'm your host of Nature and Science Podcast, Don Murphy.  In the episode I am interviewed by our producer, Anna Murphy to discuss, how my two time failure in chemistry ultimately led to the founding of Ky'Orda. The mission of Ky'Orda is to eliminate the fear and failure in learning complex subjects for everyone by creating an education app with a personal guide that uses behavioral science and adaptive technology.  I think many of you out there can identify with failing a subject and feeling like you didn't measure up or at the worse you were not smart.  You may have even abandoned a subject before you even got a chance to explore its adventures and discoveries.  The guided app I will talk about is creating an entirely new world and may ultimately change the way education in done worldwide.  So join us this next episode and be amazed.https:/natureandsciencepodcast.com

Warning: the topic of suicide is discussed during this episode of The ModGolf Podcast. This is more than a story about golf; it's a story about how a single moment, a single community, a single purpose can pull someone back from the brink and empower them to save others.

Not just to play golf, but to build careers in the industry as players, caddies, clubhouse staff, and agronomy crews. From Isolation to Community: Hear how the Warrior Golf Academy is intentionally designed to combat the #1 killer—isolation—by creating a tight-knit, supportive community that replicates the camaraderie of military and first responder teams. https://media24.fireside.fm/file/fireside-uploads-2024/images/1/1ea879c1-a4a2-4e10-bea4-e5d8368a3c7a/h7dt0CoG.jpg Episode Chapters: (01:15) Introduction: The Transformative Power of Golf (01:54) Jonathan's Story Begins: A Descent into Darkness (07:24) The Turning Point: A Divine Intervention (10:23) The Road to Recovery: Costa Rica and a Return to Golf (13:50) The Birth of a Mission: Founding the Warrior Golf Academy (17:55) Discipline on the Course vs. the Battlefield (22:58) Filling the Gaps: A New Model for Veteran Support (27:05) Stories of Transformation: The Ripple Effect of Hope (31:45) Creating Community: Indoor Simulators and Local Events (34:05) The Ripple Effect on Families and Communities (37:12) The Future Vision: Scaling Hope and Building a "Golf Technical College" (41:39) A Message to Those Struggling: "You Are Not Alone" (43:22) How to Get Involved and Support the Mission Quotable Moments from Jonathan: On Purpose: "What people are looking for in this life is belonging and purpose. If you don't have those, then you don't have that will to want to live." On Golf as Therapy: "It's really just that extreme focus for the few seconds it takes to hit the golf ball and then you don't have to think about anything. It helps me get out of my own way."

His journey is a profound testament to post-traumatic growth. After his military service, Jonathan faced a profound period of darkness, grappling with the physical pain of service-connected injuries, the grief of personal loss, and the isolation that led him to the brink of suicide. His path to healing began with a powerful personal intervention and a transformative period in Costa Rica, where he rediscovered golf not just as a game, but as a therapeutic tool for mental wellness and a catalyst for his new mission. Driven by his own experience, Jonathan founded the Warrior Golf Academy to create the supportive community he found lacking. His vision extends far beyond teaching the golf swing. He is building a comprehensive "technical school" for the golf industry, providing veterans and first responders with the skills and connections to build careers as players, caddies, club managers, and agronomy staff. By focusing on belonging, purpose, and tangible career pathways, Jonathan's work directly combats the isolation that leads to the tragic statistic of "22 a day." Today, Jonathan leads a growing movement from the Academy's home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He is a certified PGA HOPE instructor and a passionate advocate for leveraging the game's unique disciplines—focus, patience, and incremental improvement—to rewire the mind and heal the spirit. His work ensures that those who have served their country have a welcoming community they can return to, proving that our deepest wounds can indeed become the source of our greatest purpose.

Few filmmakers have shaped how we understand America quite like Ken Burns. In this episode, Ken joins Mosheh for an in-depth conversation about his newest project — The American Revolution, a sweeping six-part documentary premiering this month on PBS. The series reexamines America's founding as more than a story of brilliant thinkers in Philadelphia — revealing a violent, fragile, and deeply human struggle for independence that almost failed. Burns explains how remarkable the American Revolution's promise of “inalienable rights” was, and how the US influenced 200+ years of revolutions around the world. Burns explains why he thinks 1776 was the most consequential event since the birth of Jesus Christ. Burns also discusses the present: What the Founders' era can teach us about disinformation, division, and democracy in 2025. Why complexity — not simplicity — is the key to understanding our past and navigating our future. And how Burns finds optimism and faith in a nation that's always been a work in progress. The American Revolution premieres Sunday, November 16, on PBS and streams at ⁠PBS.org⁠ and the PBS App. Mosheh Oinounou (⁠⁠@mosheh⁠⁠) is an Emmy and Murrow award-winning journalist. He has 20 years of experience at networks including Fox News, Bloomberg Television and CBS News, where he was the executive producer of the CBS Evening News and launched the network's 24 hour news channel. He founded the @mosheh Instagram news account in 2020 and the Mo News podcast and newsletter in 2022.

This episode traces the Marine Corps' transformation from the late 1800s into the modern force recognized today. It begins with the creation of Parris Island and the evolution of Marine training, from tents and marshland to a world-class recruit depot tested by war, tragedy, and reform. The story moves through Panama, where Marines became America's instrument of order, and into the age of steel ships and global ambition. It follows their battles in Cuba, the Philippines, and across Central America during the Banana Wars, where the Corps learned the lessons of small wars, air-ground coordination, and constabulary duty. Figures like Charles Heywood, John A. Lejeune, and Smedley Butler emerge as the architects of a professional, expeditionary force. By the time the last Marines left Nicaragua in 1933, the Corps had been reshaped, no longer a naval guard but a global instrument of American power, forged in hardship and defined by purpose.

Battles, conquests, survival, leadership—it's all here. No fluff. No filters. Just raw history told with grit, blood, and legacies that last. This is Episode 1 of the 26-part Daniel Boone series, new episodes drops every Monday, Wednesday, & Friday. Grit. Blood. Legacy. Let the story begin.

This week's episode is a total mix of everything on our minds: being “busy,” toddler obsessions, men's pants (please help), a quick birth plan update, and that moment when your baby feels so grown… until you look back and realize they were tiny. In Things We DMed Each Other, we get into toddler skincare — and why “safe on skin” doesn't always mean “safe on the mind” — plus a social experiment where a woman called churches asking for formula (and the results were surprising). And then, of course, TWO Bickers of the Week: whether it's ever okay to double dip, and if a man can eat a pregnant woman's food (spoiler: he cannot). We also wanted to make sure all the new parents in our community are aware of the recent ByHeart recall. We shared what we know and understand, and wanted to link a resource with the most up-to-date info:https://byheart.com/pages/an-update-from-our-founders-on-our-voluntary-recall-november-2025 Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! 00:01:55 The glorification of being “busy” 00:05:07 Why young toddlers love baby dolls 00:06:25 Please comment your recs for comfortable men's pants 00:12:05 My birth plan for baby #2 00:14:17 How close to your due date would you let your husband travel? 00:17:17 Potential names for baby #2 00:18:37 When your baby feels grown in the moment (and tiny later) 00:21:20 When people say a baby girl looks just like her dad… 00:24:27 The ByHeart recall 00:34:40 Do you really need a gadget for everything? 00:37:05 When will Tate get her first haircut? 00:38:38 Things We DMed Each Other: Toddler skincare 00:41:29 Things We DMed Each Other: Baby formula “social experiment” 00:49:00 Bicker of the Week: Is it ever OK to double dip? 00:54:00 Bicker of the Week: Can a man eat a pregnant woman's food? 01:00:17 LOVE YOU GUYS #twoparentsandapod --------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you to our sponsors this week: *Quince: Step into the holiday season with layers made to last.

Talmage Boston holds a live cross-examination style interview of Bret Baier, host of Special Report with Bret Baier on the Fox News Channel and chief political anchor for Fox, on his newest book To Rescue the American Spirit: Teddy Roosevelt and the Birth of a Superpower.

SummaryIn this conversation, John Pierson shares his personal experience with mosquitoes and the challenges he faced while trying to create a mosquito-free outdoor space. He discusses his initial solution of using tiki torches and the problems that arose from that approach. Ultimately, this led to the innovative idea of BuzzCaps, a product designed to enhance outdoor living by effectively managing mosquito issues. TakeawaysJohn faced a significant mosquito problem in his outdoor space.He initially tried using tiki torches for mosquito control.Tiki torches proved to be an ineffective solution.John's frustration led him to think creatively about the problem.The idea for BuzzCaps emerged from his need for a better solution.BuzzCaps are designed to attach to privacy fences for better stability.John's experience highlights the importance of innovation in everyday problems.The conversation emphasizes the value of persistence in problem-solving.Outdoor living spaces can be improved with innovative products.John's story is a testament to turning challenges into opportunities.Transform Your Outdoor Experience with BuzzCaps: A Game-Changer for Homeowners1. The Birth of BuzzCaps  John Pierson shares the story of how he and his family created BuzzCaps. After building their first pool in Maine, they struggled with mosquito infestations that ruined their evenings. Inspired by their challenges, John set out to develop a product that would allow them to enjoy their poolside without the pesky bugs. Thus, BuzzCaps was born—a simple yet effective solution that transforms deck or fence posts into tiki torches, utilizing citronella oil to deter mosquitoes naturally.2. Understanding the Product  BuzzCaps are designed to fit on four-inch or five-inch posts and require no tools for installation. Each product comes with a 12-ounce oil canister to hold citronella oil, which masks human scent and keeps mosquitoes at bay. This innovative design not only solves a common problem but does so in a way that enhances the aesthetic of outdoor living spaces. John emphasizes that a clean and upscale look was a priority during development, making BuzzCaps an attractive addition to any deck or backyard.3. A Family Affair  What makes BuzzCaps special is its family-oriented foundation. John, his wife Lisa, and their son Max collaborated throughout the design process. They voted on various names, ultimately settling on BuzzCaps, which cleverly reflects the product's purpose. John credits his family for their encouragement and feedback, helping him refine the design to its current successful form.4. The Importance of Networking  John highlights the significance of networking in growing BuzzCaps. During his first expo experience at the Pool, Spa, Deck, and Patio Expo in Vegas, he made valuable connections with distributors and learned about the industry. This exposure opened doors to new opportunities and potential partnerships, proving that stepping outside one's comfort zone can yield incredible results.5. Future Prospects  As a relatively young company, BuzzCaps is focused on spreading awareness about their product. John envisions expanding their product line to cater to different materials and post sizes, further enhancing outdoor living experiences for homeowners. This innovative approach shows that BuzzCaps is not just a product but a brand dedicated to improving outdoor spaces.Conclusion:  BuzzCaps presents a fresh solution to a longstanding problem for outdoor enthusiasts. The combination of thoughtful design, family collaboration, and effective networking has positioned BuzzCaps as a standout product in the home improvement industry. By offering a stylish way to enjoy outdoor living without the nuisance of mosquitoes, BuzzCaps is set to transform backyards everywhere. Key Takeaways:  - BuzzCaps is a family-run business that provides an innovative solution for mosquito control in outdoor spaces.  - The product is designed to enhance the aesthetic of decks and fences while providing a functional benefit.  - Networking and community engagement are crucial for startup success, as demonstrated by John's experience at industry expos.  - BuzzCaps aims to expand its product offerings to meet diverse customer needs.

Clapham begins as a riverside outpost on the Archbishop's side of the Thames, a little upstream from the City's bustle. Its story kicks off with the memorable wedding feast of Osgod Clapa's daughter, a moment of Anglo-Saxon high life set against reed thatch, woodsmoke and river mud. From there, the place grows by accretion and accident: manor lands, market gardens, pious foundations, and in time a Georgian dreamworld of airy squares where the great and the good came to polish their consciences. The Clapham Sect take the stage, plotting abolition and reform over prayer meetings and polite tea. Then comes the nineteenth century, the railways, the villas, the commuters, the whole swirling transformation of London pushing south. By the time we reach the present day, Clapham is a patchwork of leafy commons, handsome terraces, lively high streets and echoes of the visionaries who once made it a moral powerhouse.

WINNERS FIND A WAY, host Trent M. Clark sits down with Mitch Allen — founder of Hire Santa, Shark Tank deal-maker, and serial entrepreneur behind 12 businesses — for a fun, insightful, and deeply practical conversation on turning big ideas into lasting impact. What started as a simple act of Christmas cheer evolved into a thriving enterprise — connecting Santas around the world and spreading holiday joy year-round. But behind the red suit and laughter lies a masterclass in leadership, preparation, and purpose. From building and selling companies to mentoring leaders in the Entrepreneurs' Organization (EO), Mitch shares candid lessons about scaling, learning from failure, and leading leaders — the toughest role of all. Together, Trent and Mitch dive into:

Some are physical, some are emotional, and yes—some even play on the more literal meaning of “getting down.” Each approach works with your body instead of against the clock, and most are evidence-based and easy to do. Whether you're nearing your due date, facing induction, or simply want to feel prepared for whatever may come, this conversation gives you all the "hacks" to get you down to giving birth! #176 | August Q&A: Multiple Miscarriages; Evening Primrose Oil; Safe Bed-Sharing; Breastmilk Stashes; Failure to Descend; Pushing; High Blood Pressure********** Needed

In this re-aired fan-favorite episode of The Birth Lounge Podcast, HeHe sits down with Dr. Rixa Freeze, research professor and president of Breech Without Borders, to challenge everything you think you know about breech birth.

The sister duo, Amy and Krystle, are back on the Expecting and Empowered podcast to bust one of the biggest birth myths out there — that you have to give birth on your back! This common misconception, often fueled by TV and movie portrayals of labor, doesn't reflect what's truly best for many birthing moms. In this episode, Amy and Krystle break down why pushing on your back might not be the most ideal position and dive into the science and strategy behind movement during labor.Krystle, a women's health physical therapist, shares powerful alternative labor positions that can help open the pelvis, encourage optimal baby positioning, shorten labor, reduce pushing time, and support more effective pain management. The sisters also bring up the “3 P's of Labor” and explain how movement and positioning — beyond the typical flat-on-your-back approach — can make a major difference in your birth experience. Whether you're preparing for your first birth or your next, this conversation will leave you feeling empowered, informed, and ready to take an active role in your labor journey.If you enjoyed listening to this episode, we would love it if you could share it to your Instagram stories and tag us, @expectingandempowered.

Clara Barton, the founder of the Red Cross, was in Havana in 1898, investigating the terrible conditions endured by Cubans whom the Spanish government had forced into concentration camps, where an estimated 425,000 people died of disease and starvation. While she was there, the American warship USS Maine exploded in Havana's harbor, which served as the pretext for an American invasion, leading to the Spanish-American War. The United States swiftly invaded and won the Spanish-American War in Cuba in 1898 due to its superior naval power, the decisive charge led by Theodore Roosevelt's "Rough Riders" at San Juan Hill, and the crucial assistance from Cuban insurgents against the already exhausted Spanish forces. In the wake of the Spanish-American war, the United States freed Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines from Spanish control and, in turn, became an empire. This created beliefs that America was a stern yet benevolent country tasked by Destiny to enforce peace and bring prosperity to the world. That comforting thought was soon disproven, especially in the Philippines, whose people discovered they had merely swapped one colonial power for another. They then endured a vicious war that saw an estimated 600,000 Filipino deaths. Whereas the Cuban campaign brought glory to Theodore Roosevelt at San Juan Hill, “the Philippine War would be America’s most quickly forgotten war, the one least celebrated in song or legend, the one least memorialized.” And for good reason, Jackson recounts: American soldiers committed countless atrocities while being felled right and left by disease and starvation themselves; many soldiers committed suicide, and others deserted to join Filipino rebels. Today’s guest is Joe Jackson, author of “Splendid Liberators: Heroism, Betrayal, Resistance, and the Birth of the American Empire.” We look at this decisive war that turned American into a global power, and how poor planning turned into a disaster in the Philippines, creating our first quagmire of a war, long before Iraq or Vietnam.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Birth control is the latest battleground in a wave of online misinformation targeting young women — and doctors and reproductive health advocates are sounding the alarm about its impact. But this isn’t your typical fearmongering about birth control coming from Bible-thumpers or conservative men in suits. This new wave is coming from wellness influencers — the ones in matching pastel workout sets — who are linking a “balanced, natural life” with ditching hormonal birth control. Bridget explains to Stuff Mom Never Told You’s Samantha and Anney why this may look like a rebrand, but this kind of misinformation is just as harmful as ever. You can find more information about the safety and effectiveness of birth control in this article from the American Medical Association: https://www.ama-assn.org/public-health/population-health/what-doctors-wish-patients-knew-about-birth-control If you’re listening on Spotify, you can leave a comment there to let us know what you thought about this episode, or email us at hello@tangoti.com Follow Bridget and TANGOTI on social media! || instagram.com/bridgetmarieindc/ || tiktok.com/@bridgetmarieindc || youtube.com/@ThereAreNoGirlsOnTheInternet See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The UK's medicines watchdog has said criminal gangs in the UK have started making their own weight-loss drugs, with packaging and branding designed to look like legitimate products. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has warned that the new trend poses a significant threat. Presenter Clare McDonnell is joined by Sukhi Basra, vice chair of the National Pharmacy Association who also runs a weight loss practice, to dicuss the risks. 'Buy now, pay later' credit schemes are increasingly being used to pay for everyday items like food, bus passes and school uniforms. Leading debt advisors have told the BBC that more women are juggling these debts as they struggle to cope with the cost of living. BBC Yorkshire investigations reporter, Stephanie Miskin, and Rebecca Routledge from debt advice organisation Money Wellness talk to Clare. Jackie Clune is an actor, writer and performer whose eclectic career has included a Karen Carpenter tribute act, Shakespeare, Mamma Mia! and most recently the narrator in a UK tour of The Rocky Horror Show. On screen, she's familiar to many as Motherland's school secretary Mrs Lamb, but she's also written novels and a memoir about unexpectedly becoming a mum to triplets at 39 and finding herself with four children under 19 months. She's now on stage in The Meat Kings! (Inc.) of Brooklyn Heights at London's Park Theatre, playing a tough, no-nonsense boss fighting to keep the family business afloat. She joins Clare to discuss the play, parenting and grief. A rare 500-year-old English parchment birth scroll is to be shown in the UK for the first time following recent pioneering analysis that confirmed its use during pregnancy and childbirth. The medieval scroll is central to Expecting: Birth, Belief and Protection at the Wellcome Collection exploring the protective practices and beliefs around pregnancy, childbirth and infertility that existed in medieval times. Dr Elma Brenner, Research Development Lead at Wellcome Collection and Professor Valerie Worth, Fellow of Trinity college oxford who holds a research grant from the Leverhulme Trust talk to Clare.Presented by: Clare McDonnell Produced by: Dianne McGregor

In this episode of Slightly Spiritual, we sit down with Michelle Penicook, RD, LD a registered dietitian specializing in fertility and functional medicine. Michelle's journey into this work began with her own health challenges — from endometriosis and autoimmune disease to mold toxicity and chronic Lyme. Those experiences completely transformed how she views the body, healing, and the resilience we're capable of when we have the right tools and support. Together, we explore the conversation around hormones and fertility- and how Michelle helps women uncover the “why” behind their fertility struggles. We discuss: The difference between conventional and functional fertility care — and why “normal” labs aren't always the full picture and leave women struggling. Birth control and how it impacts fertility and hormones How emotional healing and mindset play as big a role as physical health in conception What “unexplained infertility” really means (and why it's rarely unexplained at all) The rise in fertility challenges and what's driving them — from stress and undernourishment to toxin exposure How chronic conditions like PCOS, endometriosis, and autoimmunity can impact hormone balance and fertility Male fertility, how to address male fertility with your partner and the changes they may need to make to get pregnant IVF- the good and the bad Age and fertility and your ability to get pregnant Connect with Michelle: Instagram: @hormoneharmonyrd Join her email list to stay updated on upcoming programs and resources: https://www.hormoneharmonyrd.com Free download for Slightly Spiritual listeners: The Fully Fertile Meal Plan- https://deft-author-8756.kit.com/a4d58a6292 Did this episode remind you of a friend?

For generations, women have been told that pain in labor is simply part of the curse and that it's what Eve brought upon us in the Garden of Eden. But is that truly what Scripture teaches?In this episode, Karen takes a deep dive into Genesis 3:16 and the verses that have shaped our modern beliefs about birth, pain, and womanhood. You'll learn how a single mistranslated word has influenced centuries of theology and fear surrounding birth and how reclaiming the truth of God's design can set women free from the belief that they are destined to suffer.Karen also shares how this revelation changed her own understanding of birth, transforming her experience from fear and pain to faith and peace. If you've ever wrestled with the question, “Did God design birth to hurt?”, this episode will bring clarity, healing, and hope. Tune in to hear:What Genesis 3:16 actually says about pain in childbirthWhy the Hebrew word for “pain” was mistranslated and what it truly meansHow both Adam and Eve experienced toil, not punishmentThe powerful truth that Eve was never cursedHow fear and cultural conditioning contribute to pain in laborWhy God's design for your body is rooted in love, not sufferingHow understanding Scripture can transform your faith, your birth, and your motherhood Use code PODCAST to get $50 off the Pain Free Birth E-course HERECONNECT WITH KAREN:Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/painfreebirth Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/painfreebirth/ Spotify Podcast - https://open.spotify.com/show/5zEiKMIHFewZeVdzfBSEMS Apple Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/pain-free-birth/id1696179731Website - https://painfreebirth.com/ Email List https://pain-free-birth.mykajabi.com/website-opt-in
