The Pugsters welcome Fr. Dwight Longenecker to the show to discuss his new book, Bloodshed and Blessing. The book discusses blood sacrifice as a component of all traditional religions until those sacrifices find their fulfillment and ending in Christ. The conversation ranges over the “why” of sacrifice, its significance in the Eucharist today, and even the Sword of St. Michael, a set of seven churches dedicated to St. Michael in a straight line from the Holy Land to Ireland. It’s an interesting and provocative conversation about topics not often discussed in the Reformed and Evangelical worlds.

“You didn't have to look someone in the eye while you extinguished their life, and you could do it from a distance.” — Mike McIntire on what the gun changedIs there an American way of violence? Earlier this month, the film critic David Thomson blamed gory Hollywood movies, like Coppola's Godfather, for glorifying it. Today's guest has an even more brutal answer. According to Mike McIntire, the three-time Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times investigative journalist, it's the gun itself that can be blamed for the perpetual American plague of violence.Yes, the gun did it. In his new book Ricochet: Guns, Greed, and the American Way of Violence, McIntire observes that every developed country has violent movies, violent video games, and significant mental illness. But what no other country has are schoolchildren, grocery shoppers, and churchgoers massacred on a regular basis. Up to forty thousand Americans die from guns every year — half of them suicides — and yet we treat these uniquely dangerous machines as if they were iPhones.How did this catastrophe happen? McIntire's answer focuses on the law as much as the culture. English common law imposed a duty to retreat in the event of conflict. Then, amid the centennial jingoism of 1876, an Indiana court declared that “retreat” was not “the tendency of the American mind.” A “true man,” explained an Ohio court, doesn't fly from threats. Stand your ground was born — and with it, a legal redefinition of what it means to be an American.And then there's the NRA — founded in 1871, ironically, by a former New York Times correspondent as a marksmanship club, and radicalized a century later. Its greatest coup was reframing the Second Amendment from militia clause into individual right — a maneuver that Warren Burger, a Republican chief justice, called the “biggest fraud” ever perpetrated on the American people. And today even the NRA looks moderate compared to new online radical right-wing gun rights groups.McIntire, a gun owner himself, doesn't preach. Instead he describes his first murder scene as a young cop reporter — the dead man peacefully lying in the grass, one small round hole in the side of his head. Clean, efficient, clinical. Like an iPhone app. That's the American way of violence. The gun did it. And will continue to do so until America retreats from its deadly love affair with the firearm.Five Takeaways• It's the Gun Itself. Every developed country has violent movies, violent video games, mental illness, and toxic social media. What none of them has, McIntire argues, is a repetitive, constant problem of schoolchildren, grocery shoppers, and churchgoers being massacred. Up to forty thousand Americans a year die from guns — half of them suicides — and firearms account for three-quarters or more of all homicides. Yet America treats these uniquely dangerous things as ordinary consumer goods, bought, sold, marketed, and carried around like an iPhone or a wallet. Whatever role Hollywood plays — and McIntire takes David Thomson's argument seriously — you have to start with the one thing that is actually different: the gun.• A Daily Trickle of Bloodshed. When a plane crash kills two hundred people, there is a massive media and government response. When two hundred people die in scattered shootings across fifty states in the same period, there is a local news story, and then nothing. Gun violence in America has slipped into the category of acceptable losses — background noise. The conundrum for gun-safety advocates is how to sustain attention on a crisis that only becomes visible when the next Sandy Hook or Parkland arrives.• No Duty to Retreat. English common law, imported into the colonies, required you to retreat from a public confrontation before resorting to lethal force. Amid the centennial fervor of 1876, American courts began overturning homicide convictions on new grounds: retreat, declared Indiana's Supreme Court, was not “the tendency of the American mind,” and a “true man,” added an Ohio court, need not fly from an aggressor. The repeating rifle helped make the old duty obsolete — you cannot outrun a bullet — and stand your ground became canon. Every week, somewhere in America, the defense still succeeds.• “The Biggest Fraud”: Rewriting the Second Amendment. The founders' great fear was a standing army; the amendment preserved a well regulated militia — trained and disciplined, not unlimited. Beginning in the 1970s, the NRA underwrote sympathetic scholarship, law reviews, and court cases in a deliberate long game to recast the amendment as an individual right — moving guns from common law, where legislatures can regulate, into constitutional law, where they largely cannot. Warren Burger, the Republican former chief justice, called it the biggest fraud he had ever seen perpetrated on the American people. Now the Supreme Court's “common use” test — found nowhere in the Constitution — means a weapon popular enough may be unbannable, with AR-15 bans next on the docket.• The Death Star Eclipsed. McIntire's cache of internal NRA documents traces the organization's path from post-Civil War marksmanship club — cofounded by a former New York Times correspondent — to radicalized lobbying juggernaut, complete with pro-gun Democrats like John Dingell on its board. Today it has been outflanked by no-compromise groups like the Firearms Policy Coalition, which at any given moment is pushing more lawsuits against state gun laws than the NRA. Guns remain the third rail — Beto O'Rourke said “hell yes” to taking away AR-15s and has not held office since. The irony in McIntire's prescription: gun-safety advocates should copy the NRA's own generation-long legal strategy.About the GuestMike McIntire is an investigative journalist at The New York Times and a member of three Pulitzer Prize-winning reporting teams, whose work has exposed everything from Russian election interference to the hidden financial incentives of policing. He is the author of Champions Way: Football, Florida, and the Lost Soul of College Sports. He lives in Ridgefield, Connecticut. His new book is Ricochet: Guns, Greed, and the American Way of Violence (One Signal/Atria, July 2026).References:• Ricochet: Guns, Greed, and the American Way of Violence by Mike McIntire (One Signal/Atria, July 2026). Jane Mayer: “McIntire is both a superb reporter and storyteller.”• A Sudden Flicker of Light: A Revisionist History of Movies by David Thomson — the recent Keen On guest whose argument about Hollywood and American violence opens the conversation.• The American Way of Death by Jessica Mitford — the classic anatomy of the American funeral business that lends this episode its central question.
“Motor City” feels like somebody found a filthy '70s revenge movie in the trunk of a burned-out Cadillac, wiped off the blood, and restored the whole thing in 4K and Dolby Atmos. It is loud, violent, strangely romantic and, thankfully, almost entirely uninterested in people sitting around explaining themselves. The fists, engines, needle drops and occasional shotgun blast handle most of the talking.Directed by Potsy Ponciroli ("Greedy People," "Old Henry") and written by Chad St. John, the film stars Alan Ritchson (“Reacher") as John Miller, a working-class Detroit mechanic framed by a wealthy gangster after falling in love with the man's girlfriend, Sophia, played by Shailene Woodley. After spending years behind bars, Miller emerges with revenge on his mind and very little concern for whether he survives long enough to enjoy it.Ben Foster, Pablo Schreiber, Lionel Boyce, Ben McKenzie and Amar Chadha-Patel also star in the nearly dialogue-free action thriller, which arrives in theaters on July 24 through IFC Films.

Even as the bloodshed in the Israeli Arab sector spirals out of control, politics is getting in the way of the work of the police, according to a former Tel Aviv district police commander, David Tzur, who spoke to KAN's David Ze'ev.

Daily Scripture Readings and Reflection: The exile of God's people was linked to grave sins, including the shedding of innocent blood. Today's First Reading offers a sobering warning for every generation. Frank Pavone reflects on the consequences of rejecting God's law and the urgent call to protect innocent human life.
Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Get your Hosea Scripture Journal now. What causes a nation to slowly fall apart? God answers that question with surprising clarity. Listen to our text today, Hosea 4:1b-3: There is no faithfulness or steadfast love, and no knowledge of God in the land; there is swearing, lying, murder, stealing, and committing adultery; they break all bounds, and bloodshed follows bloodshed. Therefore the land mourns, and all who dwell in it languish, and also the beasts of the field and the birds of the heavens, and even the fish of the sea are taken away.— Hosea 4:1b-3 That is where the decay begins. Not with politics. Not with policies. With the absence of God. Not the absence of religious talk—but the absence of truly knowing him. That word "knowledge" has more meaning than it sounds. The Hebrew word is: דַּעַת (daʿat) — from the root יָדַע (yada). It doesn't mean information—it means relationship. Personal, experiential, covenant knowing. God isn't saying they forgot facts about him. He's saying they don't know me intimately or relationally anymore. And once that foundation is gone, everything built on it begins to weaken. Faithfulness fades. Love becomes shallow. Truth becomes flexible. What follows is predictable. A list of five behaviors follows: "Swearing, lying, murder, stealing, and committing adultery…" These are not just individual sins. They are symptoms of something deeper. When people lose their knowledge of God, they lose the standard that once shaped their lives. Boundaries begin to disappear. "They break all bounds…" And when there are no boundaries, there is no restraint. "Bloodshed follows bloodshed." This is what decay looks like. It spreads. It compounds. It becomes cultural. But it doesn't stop with people. "The land mourns…" Even creation feels the destruction of it. This takes us all the way back to Genesis. When sin enters, it never stays contained. It affects everything—relationships, communities, even the earth itself. So let's make this personal. If your life feels unstable, truth feels negotiable, love feels inconsistent, don't blame others or your circumstances too quickly. It might be that you have drifted in your relationship with God. Not your belief in him. Not your language about him. Your knowledge (or relationship) with him. Because you don't drift into a relationship with God. You drift away from him. Quietly. Gradually. Almost without noticing. Until one day, what once felt wrong feels normal. And what once felt true feels optional. Don't just ask, "What needs to change?" Ask: "Do I actually know God anymore?" DO THIS: Spend time today in God's Word and focus on one truth about who he is, not just what he commands. ASK THIS: Where do you see the effects of a lack of God's truth in the world around you? How has your understanding of God shaped your daily decisions? What is one way you can grow in truly knowing God this week? PRAY THIS: Father, deepen my knowledge of you. Help me build my life on your truth so I don't drift into confusion or compromise. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Knowing You (All I Once Held Dear)"
Liberals like AOC are saying the quiet part out loud now: They want to use force and the strong arm of government to force their ideals on everyone. And it appears they don't mind bloodshed to do it.

Two tragic child deaths in South Carolina ignite a firestorm over immigration enforcement, while a global power struggle unfolds in the Strait of Hormuz. Meanwhile, newly declassified intel raises explosive questions about the Trump impeachment and intelligence community conduct. Tara connects the dots between local tragedy, global conflict, and political power plays—laying out a narrative the mainstream media won't touch. ⚡ EPISODE SUMMARY Today's show delivers a triple punch: A devastating drunk driving tragedy involving an illegal immigrant sparks outrage and renewed debate over immigration enforcement and state leadership failures. A second fatal DUI case deepens concerns about public safety and accountability. On the global stage, the U.S. asserts control over the Strait of Hormuz, escalating tensions with Iran and China in what's framed as a fight over the petrodollar and global trade dominance. Newly declassified intelligence raises serious allegations about how the Trump impeachment was initiated—suggesting coordination between Democrats and intelligence officials. From local heartbreak to global warfare, Tara argues these stories are all connected through power, policy, and political consequences.

Well, when I combine the 20 episodes of WarNotes with the CG podcasts but a chance to pop the bubbly anyway. Today we discuss the critical lack of critical thinking that has led the US into the unenviable position of being an extraordinarily 20th century fighting force nor fit for purpose for 21st century peer combat. It will get worse. I’ll offer some more recommendations and a path forward.

“Help is on its way”, das hatte US-Präsident Donald Trump im Januar bei Truth Social gepostet. Die Nachricht richtete sich an die Protestierenden in Iran, deren Widerstand vom iranischen Regime brutal niedergeschlagen wurde. Die angekündigte Hilfe kam damals nicht. Während die USA und Iran jetzt über einen neuen Atomdeal verhandeln, hat Trump eine erhebliche Militärpräsenz in der Golfregion und im Nahen Osten zusammengezogen. So viele Streitkräfte hatten die USA seit dem Irakkrieg nicht mehr in der Region stationiert. In seiner Rede zur Lage der Nation am Dienstag betonte Trump, dass er zwar eine diplomatische Lösung bevorzuge, aber niemals zulassen werde, dass der Iran Atomwaffen besitze. Er verwies auf die Entschlossenheit der USA als stärkste Militärmacht der Erde. Währenddessen sind an einigen Universitäten in Iran wieder Proteste aufgeflammt. Obwohl das Regime in diesem Jahr nach Schätzungen bereits Zehntausende Protestierende ermordet hat, kämpfen Teile der Bevölkerung weiter für ein Ende der Islamischen Republik. Der Widerstandsgeist scheint trotz der Brutalität des Regimes ungebrochen, sagt Azadeh Zamirirad. Sie ist Politikwissenschaftlerin und Iran-Expertin bei der Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik. Anne Will spricht mit ihr in dieser Folge über die Frage: Was wäre, wenn Trump Iran angreift? Welche Szenarien eines Militärschlags sind denkbar? Und welche Auswirkungen hätten sie? Auch wenn das Regime in Iran unter Druck steht und die Lage im Land hochproblematisch ist, glaubt Azadeh Zamirirad nicht, dass das System in naher Zukunft kollabiert oder ein Militärschlag durch die USA die Probleme der Menschen im Land lösen kann.

Jordan Morris is known to Maximum Fun fans as the funny and engaging co-host of Jordan, Jesse, Go! and Free With Ads. He also makes comics, such as the new Predator: Bloodshed series. It's all about the Predator, monster sci-fi icon, and his efforts to purchase and install a new shed to put all his blood in. He goes to Home Depot, he tries building one himself after watching YouTube videos, but all the sheds leak blood out, ruining the Predator's begonias. None of that is true. But there really is a Predator: Bloodshed series, Jordan is behind it, and it's quite entertaining, as is Jordan. On our program, Jordan tells us all about the many iterations of Godzilla and how the canonical word for the sound Godzilla makes is “skreeonk.” Will it be hard to sleep thinking about Godzilla?

These chapters focus largely on Schierke, Isidro, and their counterparts in the new Band of the Hawk: annoying psychic girl Sonia, and mildly annoying (and boring!) knight, Mule. The art is amazing, detailed and busy - just like the events of the plot AND the character development and world building at play. It's a fun read, even if it all made our brains a little tired after trying to follow the billions of small panels and billions of instances of dialogue. Ultimately, Miura is introducing the cliche'd (for good reason) concept that both sides of any war feel as they they are doing things for the betterment of the world; or, at least, their leader is on their behalf.

After a deadly weekend in Minneapolis, Joe Pags calls out the sudden role reversal—liberals are now sounding pro-2A, and Pags explains exactly why. A lifelong Second Amendment supporter, Pags is clear: carry if you choose, but responsibility matters, especially when law enforcement is involved. He breaks down what actually happened, where lines were crossed, and how Americans can protect their rights without chaos. Then the big question: is Tim Walz finally open to working with federal law enforcement, or is this just another temporary pivot? Straight talk, no hypocrisy, and a path forward you won't hear anywhere else. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Iran's Islamic regime is trying to bury evidence of atrocities the same way it's done before: by choking off the internet, tightening a blackout and daring the world to look away. "The Quad" panel pulls apart the media double standard (why some atrocities get treated as “claims” while other narratives get reported as fact), exposes the moral collapse of celebrity activism and campus protest culture and tackles the question hanging over everything: if the death toll is truly climbing into the thousands, what would U.S. involvement actually look like and what signals should you watch for next? You'll come away with a sharper eye for propaganda patterns, a clearer map of the geopolitical chessboard (Iran–Syria–Jordan–U.S.) and a bracing sense of how quickly history can pivot when the cameras go dark.

NIXON'S SABOTAGE AND HAMBURGER HILL Colleague Geoffrey Wawro. Richard Nixon won the 1968 election by using Henry Kissinger to secretly sabotage LBJ's peace talks, eventually accepting the same terms in 1973 after four more years of bloodshed. Once in power, Nixon's continuation of "search and destroy" tactics led to the Battle of Hamburger Hill in 1969, where troops captured a meaningless objective only to abandon it, sparking congressional and public outrage. This backlash forced Nixon to abandon coercive ground tactics and pivot toward "Vietnamization," as the American public would no longer tolerate high casualties for insignificant terrain. NUMBER 13
This week we're excited to present a conversation from the 63rd New York Film Festival with Cover-Up directors Laura Poitras and Mark Obenhaus, film subjects Seymour Hersh and Camille Lo Sapio, and producers Yoni Golijov and Olivia Streisand. This conversation was moderated by NYFF programmer Justin Chang. Cover-Up will be available on Netflix beginning December 26th. For the past six decades, Seymour Hersh has been at the front lines of political journalism in the United States. Hersh's breakthrough reportage has brought to the public's attention many of the most damning constitutional wrongdoings and cover-ups, from the My Lai massacre in South Vietnam to the CIA's involvement in plots to assassinate foreign leaders to the Iraq invasion and systematic tortures at Abu Ghraib. In many cases, the revelations of his work have led to governmental reckonings and legal ramifications, yet Hersh, now 88 and surrounded by boxes of files from decades of tireless work, sees himself not as a crusader but as a citizen just doing his job. In this arresting documentary, Laura Poitras (All the Beauty and the Bloodshed, NYFF60) and Mark Obenhaus tell the wide-ranging story of Hersh (whose career has not been free of controversy itself). Though a decades-gestating project for the filmmakers, Cover-Up couldn't have come at a more crucial moment, when freedom of the U.S. press is increasingly under fire by those in power. A Netflix release. The 63rd New York Film Festival is presented in partnership with Rolex.
It starts small. A stolen bottle of liquor. A missing wallet. A petty theft in the night. But for some individuals, crime isn't a one-off, it's a sliding scale, a dark spiral downward. Let's examine how Antonio Brown, an alcoholic, homeless man moved from petty theft to what would become a brutal homicide. This isn't about sensational headlines. It's about the dangerous dynamics of escalation — when opportunity, desperation, and violence collide. An in-depth look at the tragic 2022 death of 77-year-old Eleanor Bowles at the hands of 23-year-old Antonio Brown — tracing a path from alleged minor thefts to a violent car theft-turned-homicide, exploring psychological escalation, criminal history, and what may have tipped this suspect over the edge. #AntonioBrown #EleanorBowles #AtlantaPD #RobberyToMurder #CriminalEscalation #ProfilingEvil #TripleMurder #Odessa #Texas #triplehomicide #15yroldEmail your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================
A shocking convergence of stories exposes what critics call a system in collapse—from a sprawling Medicaid fraud scandal measured in the billions, to a chilling campus shooting case spanning Brown University and MIT. As investigators uncover shell companies, alleged political protection, and a whistleblower trail that went ignored, a separate manhunt ends with a homeless tipster cracking a case authorities said couldn't be solved. This episode asks a hard question: Is this negligence, or something far more deliberate?

Lionel and callers discuss historical facts and modern traditions surrounding the holiday. Lionel begins by challenging common knowledge about Thanksgiving, detailing how the holiday was officially born during the Civil War and how many early narratives about the Pilgrims are retroactive myths. Discussions with listeners cover practical cooking advice, such as dry-brining and deep-frying turkey, as well as frustrating experiences attending the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. One extensive conversation features a former restaurant and farm owner detailing the intricacies of commercial poultry processing and the challenges of the food service business. The program ultimately expands beyond Thanksgiving to examine how numerous historical and cultural narratives, including the stories of Paul Revere and Christopher Columbus, were deliberately created or distorted for propaganda or dramatic effect.
