On today's episode, Michael Smerconish dives into the latest poll question at Smerconish.com: “Do you agree with Bill Clinton that the book Original Sin is being used to unfairly blame Joe Biden for Donald Trump's election?” After recently interviewing former President Bill Clinton and best-selling author James Patterson about their new political thriller, Michael shares insights on the book's surprising substance—particularly Clinton's vision for tackling the national debt, tucked into a beach read. But while Smerconish zeroed in on the book's fiscal message, others focused on Clinton's comments regarding President Biden and his role in Trump's reelection. Is this new narrative fair—or a strategic rewrite of political responsibility? Listen for Michael's take, then head to Smerconish.com to vote on today's question and make your voice heard.

Today in Current Events from a Christian Perspective:In Seattle, Washington, a group of Christians put on an event with worship music, singing, dancing and speakers, all to raise awareness and stand against boys being let into girls locker rooms, sports teams and bathrooms. Violent leftists like Antifa protested the event and started literally attacking both the event goers and the police. The Seattle mayor then took a stand and blamed the Christians, essentially saying, 'well, you shouldn't have been standing there.'If you all would just let boys dress up as girls and if you would stop praising God so fervently in public, the protesters would not have had to violently tried to stop you. Just stay home. Keep your religion out of my public space. PIC - Matthew 28Of course, the Christian faith is specifically a public one. 'Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, even to the end of the age.' Matthew 28:19So, question, if we are not supposed to proclaim the gospel publicly, then where and how do we disciple the nations?All this and more today on ChurchPublic!..---At Church Public we create compelling content to equip you to follow Jesus and engage in the public square including Current Events from a Christian Perspective.Thanks for watching!

Directed by Eli Craig, CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD introduces us to Quinn Maybrook (Katie Douglas) as she and her father move into the small town of Kettle Springs after the death of her mother. But Quinn quickly discovers that the kids in town aren't alright, at least according to the adults. Blamed for everything that goes wrong, the youth don't get any respect (so they don't give any either). However, when Frendo, a clown-faced symbol of the town's success, begins hunting teenagers, they must fight to survive the night and escape with their lives. In this 1on1, we speak to Craig about his appreciation for 80s slasher films and crossing the generational divide.

The Corporate Capture of Carbon Footprints: A Nonprofit Perspective In the latest episode of the Nonprofit Newsfeed, hosted by George and Nick from Whole Whale, the discussion takes a thought-provoking turn towards the concept of "corporate capture" and the real origins of the term "carbon footprint." This episode delves into how corporations, particularly British Petroleum (BP), have strategically shifted the focus of environmental responsibility onto consumers. George Weiner reveals that the term "carbon footprint" was not coined by environmental activists but was part of a $200 million PR campaign by BP in the early 2000s. This revelation highlights the concept of "guilt washing," a tactic that deflects systemic environmental issues onto individuals, thus masking the broader corporate responsibility for climate change. Key Insights and Reflections: Corporate Influence on Environmental Narratives: The episode uncovers how major corporations have historically influenced environmental discussions to avoid regulatory scrutiny, using terms like "carbon footprint" to redirect blame. The Role of Individual vs. Systemic Change: George emphasizes the importance of understanding the systemic causes of environmental degradation, suggesting that while individual actions matter, they are not the sole solution. Pope Francis' Environmental Advocacy: The episode also pays tribute to the late Pope Francis, recognizing his significant contributions to environmental advocacy. Additional Stories: Revival of the Ice Bucket Challenge: The Ice Bucket Challenge has made a comeback, this time raising awareness for mental health issues through the #SpeakYourMind campaign by University of South Carolina students. Generational Shifts in Charitable Giving: A recent Associated Press poll reveals a potential "generosity crisis" with younger Americans giving less to charity, raising questions about cultural shifts in philanthropy.
Jason Smith is the Owner and CEO of Spotlight Social Advertising, LLC, a company specializing in creating high-converting social media campaigns on platforms like Facebook and Instagram. Founded in 2016, the agency has grown to manage robust campaigns across various social media platforms, primarily focusing on e-commerce clients. Prior to his venture into digital marketing, Jason served as a Los Angeles police officer for 13 years.In this episode…Too often, business owners rush to blame their Facebook ads when sales slow or leads dry up. But is the ad platform really the root cause — or is there something deeper going on in the business itself? What if the problem isn't the ads, but what happens after the click?According to Jason Smith, a digital advertising expert, the real issue lies in business owners not taking responsibility for the full customer journey. He highlights how weak conversion funnels, poor communication, and unrealistic expectations frequently sabotage success, regardless of how good the ads are. This blame-shifting creates a cycle of agency hopping and missed growth opportunities. Jason demonstrates how many business owners fail to understand metrics like MER, ignore agency advice, and still expect high ROAS without investing in proper infrastructure or optimization.In this episode of the Truth About Social Ads, Jason Smith talks about why Facebook ads often get scapegoated for broader business failures. He breaks down how poor conversion rates, lack of internal follow-up, and misaligned goals lead to underperformance. Jason also shares real client stories that illustrate how agencies get unfairly blamed and provides insights on being a better partner to your agency.

What if the very body you once trusted suddenly felt like the enemy—and the only way to heal was to rewrite the story of your loss, one page at a time?In today's episode, I'm joined by the resilient Madeleine Garner—a writer, children's literature enthusiast, and former preschool teacher whose work explores the intersection of storytelling, healing, and parenthood. With a background in early childhood education and a deep appreciation for the emotional power of picture books, Madeleine has long used storytelling to help others navigate life's big feelings. Her debut picture book for adults, Your Baby Will Find You, was inspired by her own experience with pregnancy loss and aims to gently open space for honest conversations around grief, love, and healing. A mother herself, she brings authenticity, compassion, and insight to every story she tells, working alongside acclaimed data designer Giorgia Lupi to pair poignant visuals with heartfelt prose.Throughout this episode, Madeleine opens up about the miscarriage she experienced in 2022 and how writing became her pathway through grief. Drawing on her lifelong connection to children's literature, she processed the loss by crafting a picture book-style story that could hold the weight of her emotions while offering comfort to others. She speaks candidly about the emotional and physical toll of pregnancy loss, the feelings of isolation it often brings, and the journey toward trusting her body again. Through her collaboration with Giorgia Lupi, the book became a layered visual and emotional experience—one that captures the duality of joy and sorrow.

Can demonic possession be blamed for murder, or is it just the ultimate excuse for the inexcusable?Darkness Syndicate members get the ad-free version of #WeirdDarkness: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateIN THIS EPISODE: From serial killers to seemingly ordinary individuals, a chilling phenomenon emerges as criminals claim demonic possession drove them to commit unspeakable acts. These disturbing cases, spanning decades and continents, blur the lines between evil and the supernatural, leaving us questioning the true nature of their heinous crimes. From the infamous Son of Sam to a father who claimed demonic voices compelled him to murder his own child, we'll explore some of these cases and let you decide if the devil made them do it. (Demonic Crimes) *** The Rose family lived comfortably in the picturesque Pleasant Valley in the late 1800s. However, oldest daughter Ceely's unrequited love for a neighbor boy led to a series of chilling events. Her obsession turned deadly, leading not only to death, but to a ghostly presence as well. (Love, Poison, and Ghosts – The Case of Ceely Rose) *** In the wild era of the 1920s and 1930s, organized crime flourished in the United States, with hitmen like the mysterious "Buster from Chicago" making a name for themselves. Known for his ruthless efficiency and chilling calm, Buster was responsible for many high-profile mob hits during the violent Castellammarese War. But who was Buster? (The Enigmatic Hitman, Buster From Chicago) *** In July 1993, 26-year-old Kristin Ann set out for her morning jog, but her run ended in a horrifying, fatal attack. The shocking crime has left her grieving family and community outraged and seeking justice. (The Murder of Kristin Ann) *** Imagine falling asleep on your usual train ride home, only to wake up at a mysterious, strikingly-white colored station with no way to leave. You encounter a strange child-like figure who warns you that this place is "one step before death." This is the eerie reality of Hitsuka Station, a ghostly train stop in Japan that traps unsuspecting passengers.

Imagine being pushed, prodded, and ignored—until you finally snap. Then suddenly, you're the problem. Sound familiar? In this episode, we're diving deep into reactive abuse—one of the most insidious tactics covert narcissists use to flip the script and make survivors question their reality. I'll share real-life stories—both from childhood and marriage—illustrating how this pattern plays out, how narcissists provoke reactions only to play the victim, and why your reaction does not make you the abuser. If you've ever been told, “Wow, you're the crazy one,” or “You really have anger issues,” after finally standing up for yourself—this episode is for you. Let's dismantle the shame and reclaim your truth. You are not alone. Your reactions don't define you. And you deserve to heal. Subscribe now and don't miss next week's deep dive on the Grey Rock method! I am Renee Swanson, and I help people recover from covert narcissistic abuse. Are you tired of feeling isolated and alone? Are you searching for people who get it? Are you confused, reactive and unsure what to do? Are you running in circles in your mind? Are you worried for your kids and the effect this is having on them? Do you want to know how not to raise another narcissist in this world? I can help you!
