Comedian Jordan Carlos joins Ophira Eisenberg to talk about parenting two kids with very different personalities—his 10-year-old daughter, a perfectionist baker supplied with Costco-sized vanilla extract, and his six-year-old son, who polices Halloween candy wrappers with post-it notes. Jordan shares how his daughter's three grandmothers got her hooked on baking, and how his son's sharp eye caught him sneaking Whoppers late at night. The conversation moves into the emotional leap from age eight to ten, the Simon & Garfunkel “Hello Darkness” phase, and balancing attention between siblings. Jordan also compares Black and White Thanksgivings—Dallas versus New Hampshire—while marveling at his in-laws' quiet avoidance of conflict. He tells a wild story about losing his wallet while paddle boating on Governor's Island, diving into the muck to retrieve it as his son scolded him for swearing. From babysitters drinking beer on the job to a childhood broken arm he let heal on its own out of fear of getting in trouble, Jordan reflects on rule-following, parenting negotiations, and the strange privileges kids have today. The episode ends with Jordan imagining how much more his kids might care about U.S. history if Taylor Swift told the story of Ellis Island.

In this September episode of Mind Yo' Business, recorded in partnership with Karan Rastall (NMLS#763395) at the Ruoff Mortgage Podcast Studio, Andrew sits down with Dave Campaigne, a man whose professional life has spanned fast food advertising, higher education, and meaningful innovation. Dave opens up about climbing the marketing ladder—working his way up through McDonald's and even crossing paths with fast-food legend Ray Kroc. But that chapter was just the beginning. He later refocused his energy on academia, earning multiple degrees and ultimately becoming a pioneer in First Year Experience programs—structured efforts to help new college students adjust, succeed, and feel supported. Over the course of the interview, Dave and Andrew explore how marketing and sales principles informed his approach to educational programs, what lessons he learned from both corporate and academic worlds, and why sometimes the most impactful work happens at the intersection of systems and people. Dave also reflects on his time in Bloomington, his decision to retire, and how he views legacy now that he's stepped back from full-time roles. This is a conversation for those who believe in business with purpose, education with empathy, and careers that evolve over time.   Mind Yo' Business S8:E9 - The Business of Building Bridges: From Fast Food to First-Year Studies with Dave Campaigne   Sep 30, 2025   In this September episode of Mind Yo' Business, recorded in partnership with Karan Rastall (NMLS#763395) at the Ruoff Mortgage Podcast Studio, Andrew sits down with Dave Campaigne, a man whose professional life has spanned fast food advertising, higher education, and meaningful innovation.

In this rich and winding episode of Mind Yo' Life, recorded at Morgenstern's Bookstore Podcast Studio in Bloomington, Andrew sits down with the unforgettable Spyridon “Strats” Stratigos—a man whose life reads like a multi-act play with just the right mix of drama, comedy, philosophy, and breakfast food. Strats is a film actor (Rudy, Hoosiers), stage performer, restaurateur, community advocate, and self-proclaimed “occasional mystic.” He's been a referee on screen, a board member at Bloomingfoods, and a breakfast innovator behind some of Bloomington's most beloved dishes. He's also got deep roots in Indiana's spiritual and arts scenes—dabbling in Sufi dance, ashram life, and yogic traditions during his time at IU. Throughout the episode, Strats shares stories from movie sets, fraternity life, kitchen chaos, spiritual journeys, and the beautiful contradictions of life in Solsberry, Indiana. He and Andrew explore what it means to live many lives at once—and how art, food, faith, and storytelling can keep a community connected. And just when the philosophy gets a little too deep, Strats takes on a hilarious custom quiz crafted just for him, featuring questions about Rudy, restaurant memories, and how he might answer if ever mistaken for a mystical breakfast item     Podcast Studio Sponsor Podcast Sponsor   Podcast Sponsor JF WALKER INVESTMENTS 812-327-0889

John 13:31-38. From the "Gospel of John - Part II" sermon series. Preached by Stephen Baker.

September 28, 2025 | Chris Cook

Tucker Carlson has taken on a highly visible role in the aftermath of the recent assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. On September 21, Carlson delivered a widely discussed eulogy at Kirk's memorial service at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, an event attended by thousands including national political figures like President Donald Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance, and Donald Trump Jr. During his remarks, Carlson reflected on Kirk's legacy, warning against those who seek to silence dissenting voices and emphasizing Kirk's commitment to moral courage, introspection, and faith as guiding principles for America's future.In response to the tragedy, Turning Point USA announced that its ongoing “American Comeback Tour” will continue in Kirk's honor, and Carlson has been confirmed as the replacement keynote speaker for the planned October 21 event at Indiana University in Bloomington. The appearance is being touted as a significant moment for campus free speech, a subject that's drawn renewed attention in light of Kirk's killing. Local TPUSA organizers have called Carlson's upcoming appearance a “major event” for the university community, highlighting the debate over free expression in higher education.Carlson's media ventures remain the subject of ongoing discussion, with reports from outlets like Celebrity Net Worth and MSN estimating his current net worth at up to $50 million, further fueling debates about his broader influence in conservative media and politics. Since his exit from Fox News, Carlson has continued to expand his online media footprint, including successfully raising funding for digital projects such as his media company, which according to Fortune recently raised $15 million in seed capital.In the days following Kirk's assassination, public conversation has focused on Carlson's role within the conservative movement, his rhetorical style, and the increasing politicization of campus and media environments. While supporters praise his willingness to address contentious issues and support for conservative student activism, critics have renewed debates about the impact of his commentary on public discourse and polarization. There have been notable interactions with other public figures, particularly through shared appearances at memorial and activist events, further cementing Carlson's role as a prominent voice in the current conservative landscape.At this time, there are no widely reported legal challenges or new professional controversies directly involving Carlson himself. However, his ongoing commentary and involvement in politically charged events continue to spark vigorous public discussion about the responsibilities of media figures, the boundaries of free speech, and the role of partisan activism in shaping public debate.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

In this snack episode, Andrea Marie talks about what it's like dating as an empty nester after her “Zoom divorce” during the pandemic, and how she approaches relationships differently in her fifties—more confident about saying no, more aware of her priorities, and less interested in rushing toward marriage. She shares the efficiency of dating apps (though admits to fantasizing about faking an ankle injury to escape a bad hiking date), the humor of having a boyfriend eight years younger who referred to things as being from “her era,” and the fact that she has still never received a dick pic. Andrea contrasts her own parenting years with today's challenges, especially the role of phones and social media, and recalls her kids joking about her “weird rules,” including banning SpongeBob and punishing them with a month-long Walgreens ban over a two-for-one candy fight. She reflects on moments of losing her temper—her kids nicknaming her “crazy eyes”—but also on the joy of finding the right activities, like her son's lasting love of Ultimate Frisbee. The conversation closes with Andrea laughing at the memory of strategizing free Bible camps as summer childcare, a reminder that resourcefulness (and comedy) often go hand in hand in parenting.

In this Parenting is a Joke episode, comedian Andrea Marie talks about founding the Moms Unhinged Comedy Tour after becoming an empty nester and realizing she finally had the freedom to hit the road. She shares with host Ophira Eisenberg how her unconventional upbringing with a prank-loving mom who once greeted boyfriends in a gorilla costume—and even trained as an Italian-style clown—shaped her sense of humor. Andrea describes her first career as a Facebook marketing expert and author before pivoting into stand-up, where her earliest jokes came from midlife crises and parenting fails rather than ad campaigns. She reflects on juggling speaking gigs while raising kids, from blogging under an umbrella at water parks to arranging her schedule around school breaks. The conversation also covers her divorce, the loss of her mother, and the strange world of “cemetery surge pricing.” Andrea recalls wild moments from Moms Unhinged shows, like a woman breaking her ankle in Bend, Oregon, another falling down the stairs in Fort Dodge, and having to bounce a disruptive audience member in her hometown. She admits producing and performing can feel like being “the mom” of the show, but the sold-out theaters and grateful audiences—especially women new to comedy—have made it worthwhile. The episode closes with Andrea laughing about the Chardonnay shortages that nearly sparked a mutiny at Martha's Vineyard, proof that the “unhinged” part of the tour title is sometimes more literal than metaphorical.

Host John Lund chats with recently retired Rick Bozich, who had a legendary career of 50 years in sports media and was a longtime Louisville sports columnist and reporter before his retirement from WDRB-TV on July 1st of this year. He got his start writing for the Indiana University Bloomington student newspaper in college before graduation in 1975 went on stops in Anderson and Bloomington, Indiana before landing in Louisville at The Courier-Journal in 1978 and also covering high school sports for The Louisville Times in 1979 before their merger in 1986. Rick ended up as The Courier-Journal's sports columnist in 1981 and had a three-plus decade career covering what sports fans could only dream of, maintaining that position until 2012. That included more than 30 Final Fours, including three Louisville national championships, 15 Super Bowls, 11 World Series, one NBA Finals and three summer Olympics, just to name a few. He then moved on to the TV world with WDRB and his show with fellow scribe Eric Crawford, while also serving as the station's columnist and commenter. He's been featured in the New York Times and Sports Illustrated, was a recurring guest on ESPN Sports Reporters (RIP), a correspondent for the Kentucky Derby on Westwood One Radio and is a member of the U.S. Basketball Writers Association, Indiana Sportswriters and Sportscaster Association and Kentucky Sports Hall of Fame.

Indiana athletics finds itself in a rare golden moment, prompting an unscripted celebration of everything going right in Bloomington. This edition of The Assembly Call brings together Coach Tonsoni, Ryan Phillips, and Jerod Morris for a freewheeling conversation about the positive momentum across multiple sports and some exciting new developments in basketball.Going completely off-script without segments or a formal banner moment, we dive into what feels like the best time for Indiana athletics in decades. Soccer is ranked #1 nationally, football sits at 2-0 with genuine playoff aspirations, volleyball is thriving, and basketball is generating legitimate excitement under the new DeVries regime.Key Discussion Points Include:Hoosier the Bison's successful rollout - From the parachute entrance to Jeremy Gray's "outstanding" acting in promotional videos, the mascot has been a hit with fans young and oldCrimson Cast Live event recap - Ryan's experience on stage at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater discussing football with Mitchell Paige and Griffin GonzalezModern basketball philosophy - A deep dive into what "big vs. small ball" really means and how movement, not size, defines modern basketballRecruiting challenges and trust in DeVries - Whether Indiana's recent struggles have damaged the brand and why this coaching change feels differentCollege sports realignment concerns - Ohio State's potential push for unequal revenue sharing and what it means for programs like IndianaThe conversation's highlight comes with the announcement of Hoops on Kirkwood - replacing traditional Hoosier Hysteria with an outdoor event on Kirkwood Avenue from 8-10 PM on October 2nd. We're unanimously enthusiastic about this creative approach to connecting the basketball program with students and the community.Unscripted Tangents and PhilosophyThe show takes entertaining detours through topics ranging from favorite coaches to listen to (Shaka Smart, Matt Painter, and yes, even Brad Underwood), to speculation about future sports documentaries, to the importance of stepping away from social media when sports stop bringing joy.Throughout, there's an underlying theme of cautious optimism mixed with genuine excitement about the direction of Indiana athletics under Scott Dolson's leadership.Plus, as always, plenty of praise for the athletic department's creative thinking, excitement about connecting basketball to campus culture, and the recognition that this feels like the most positive moment for Indiana sports in anyone's recent memory. That's all in this unscripted edition of The Assembly Call.On the mics: Coach Brian Tonsoni, Ryan Phillips, and Jerod MorrisSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this Parenting Is a Joke snack episode, Ophira Eisenberg talks with bestselling author Domenica Ruta about the messy, improvised reality of writing and parenting while raising kids. Domenica describes how her creative process has nothing to do with 4 a.m. routines—rejecting Glennon Doyle's approach with a “bitch, please” and instead likening her schedule to a Jackson Pollock painting made of poop. She recalls pounding out an “ugly” first draft while pregnant, then facing the absurd parent math of paying more for childcare than she earned from freelancing. The two trade stories about breast pumps that seemed to chant insults—never encouragement—and even hatch the idea of a pump that offers affirmations instead of taunts. Domenica also reflects on the painful friend attrition after her baby shower, the pushback she got from publishers who didn't want a book about motherhood, and her insistence on telling her novel All the Mothers through many voices—including even babies' points of view. The conversation ends with her pride in shaping a book that reflects the real chaos and shifting center of family life, even if, as Ophira jokes, the next draft should just add a sniper.

To kick off our newest season, R&B sensations Durand Jones & The Indications sit down with our Secretly Frequencies hosts, Tom Davies and the band's old pal, Colemine Records' Terry Cole. Formed in Bloomington, Indiana in 2012 with an original plan to play a single show, we encounter the Indications after countless worldwide tours and four albums, with their most recent, 'Flowers,' released in June via Dead Oceans. Through an interview-by-song, the core songwriting trio of singer Durand Jones, singer/drummer Aaron Frazer, and guitarist Blake Rhein wax on breaking the musical rules, their myriad fanbase, and the power of friendship.

Bestselling author Domenica Ruta joins Ophira Eisenberg on this episode to talk about her new book All The Mothers, and about the family dynamics that shaped her memoir With or Without You, including her relationship with her strong-willed, drug-dealing mother and her complicated bond with her father. She explains how turning those memories into a book forced her to confront the contradictions of love, resentment, and survival, and why she believes humor is sometimes the only way to tell the truth about painful experiences. Domenica and Ophira also discuss generational differences in parenting styles, from guilt and rage bubbling up in small daily battles to the impossibility of living up to “perfect parent” ideals. The conversation closes with Domenica recalling how readers insisted her father character must have been directly lifted from her own life—proof of just how thin the line between lived experience and literature can be.

In AD 325, over three hundred bishops gathered to answer a question that threatened to tear the church apart: Was Jesus Christ truly God, or merely the greatest of God's creatures? Their answer, refined at Constantinople in 381, became the Nicene Creed - the most universally confessed statement of Christian faith across all denominations. Pastor Tim Winterstein is the author of the new book “Worshiped and Glorified: A Study of the Nicene Creed,” available from Concordia Publishing House.  The Rev. Tim Winterstein, pastor of University Lutheran Church in Bloomington, IN, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to discuss the Nicene Creed.  To learn more about University Lutheran, visit indianalutheran.com. Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

In this snack-sized follow-up, Ophira Eisenberg leads rapid-fire parenting confessions with Gaytriarchs podcast hosts David FM Vaughn and Gavin Lodge. David admits the last thing he said “no” to was sending an iPad to camp—earning him a daily pout and a stompy “I don't even like this house anyway.” Gavin, meanwhile, cops to banning extra TikTok time, while also offering his trademark “just you wait” warnings to David's younger-dad optimism. The trio skewer “gentle parenting” as equal parts guilt trip and impossibility, swap stories of murderous rage over mis-put-on shoes, and debate whether edibles really improve playtime. Both dads confess what they'd do anything to avoid—David votes small talk with other parents, Gavin volunteers trampoline duty—and end with a top-three list of the worst parts of back-to-school, from endless colds to forgotten assignments to being forced into yet another Parent Square group. As Gavin sums up, it's hard to focus on gentle parenting when your kid slaps you with baloney.

Listen to a conversation with Durand Jones, Aaron Frazer and Blake Rhein of the soul band Durand Jones and The Indications. They joined WFYI's Kyle Long for an in-depth discussion of their roots in Bloomington, Indiana and how projects including the IU Soul Revue and Charlie Patton's War brought the band together. The Indications' latest album is titled “Flowers”, and they'll be performing in Indianapolis on September 30 at the Hi-Fi Annex.  Durand Jones and the Indications formed in Bloomington in 2012, while its members were studying at Indiana University. The band's sound was built around a mutual love for classic soul, funk and R&B. Their reputation spread beyond Bloomington in 2016, when Ohio's Colemine Records issued their debut album. The Indication's second album “American Love Call” was issued in 2019 and praised by critics for its lush arrangements and socially conscious lyrics, earning comparisons to The Impressions and The Delfonics. Two years later, their album “Private Space” debuted in the Top 10 of Billboard's Emerging Artists chart. Their latest album “Flowers” builds on the band's distinct blend of vintage soul sounds and contemporary production techniques. Since launching in Bloomington over a decade ago, The Indications have grown into an international force, racking up millions of streams online, and touring across North America and Europe.

In this kickoff to Season 4, Ophira Eisenberg is joined by Broadway veterans turned podcasters David FM Vaughn and Gavin Lodge, hosts of The Gaytriarchs. The dads share how their show began almost as a “you're a gay dad, I'm a gay dad, let's talk” experiment, and how it's evolved into 113 episodes, complete with recurring jokes like referring to their audience as “our listener.” They talk about the strange intimacy of podcasting, meeting each other's kids for the first time only after years of recording together, and the moments that nearly made them quit—until a fan's oddly specific comment kept them going. The conversation spans their careers pivoting from Broadway to TV writing and arts advocacy, the realities of raising kids via surrogacy, and the endless cycle of coming out in playgrounds, school forms, and even Dairy Queen drive-throughs. There are tangents about LaGuardia airport feeling like a spa, the economics of summer camp, and the universal awkwardness of “the talk.” The episode ends, fittingly, with Gavin recalling his daughter casually outing him to a car full of teens before they all nodded in recognition and said, “Oh, my mom used a surrogate too.”

We chat with Bloomington band "The Cowboys". This episode features gotcha journalism and what I legitimately think is the funniest story every told on the podcast.
