Podcasts about book preview

In Episode 211, Sarah and Catherine of Gilmore Guide to Books catch up on the 14 new releases they shared in the Fall 2025 Book Preview, now that they've read them — or at least tried to!  They share their reading stats and discuss which books worked and which didn't…and why.   This post contains affiliate links through which I make a small commission when you make a purchase (at no cost to you!). CLICK HERE for the full episode Show Notes on the blog. Highlights Catherine's success rate bounces back from summer. Sarah's fall reading felt kind of "meh" despite a higher success rate. They also share their combined 2025 Preview success rates. Their fall pick ratings were all over the place, with only one DNF, but books range from 2 to 4 stars, with Catherine boasting the sole 5-star book! A couple of books suffered from an identity crisis, while others were surprise successes.  Catherine's assignment for next season is to check the page count and look for authors following-up award-winning books. They name their best and worst books picks for fall!

Stop Trying by Carla Ondrasik illuminates the deception in a mindset built on trying, which can lead to anxiety, procrastination, perceived loss of control, fatigue, fear of failure, lack of follow-through, and overall life dissatisfaction. Importantly, this book offers a way out of the rut and into practical, progressive action. If you're struggling to get things done or meet your goals, the problem isn't that you're not trying hard enough, it's that you're trying in the first place.The Life-Transforming Power of Trying Less and Doing More"Stop Trying" by Carla Ondrasik - Book PReview Book of the Week - BOTW - Season 8 Book 40Buy the book on Amazon https://amzn.to/4oeu2yKGET IT.

In this update, Iris Koh discusses the ongoing legal action against her in Singapore for challenging COVID vaccine mandates. Despite international evidence discrediting the mandates, the prosecution continues. Key updates include the July 2025 ancillary trial where Dr. Jipson Quah's statements were admitted, though the judge remains open to new evidence. The main trial resumed on July 28, with a significant moment on August 28 when witness Cedric Lim testified about police coercion, alleging threats to secure a specific narrative. Iris also discharged her lawyer in September due to financial pressures and a move by the Attorney General's Chambers to label her and her husband as vexatious litigants, restricting their ability to sue. Facing 31 days of trials and mounting costs, Iris calls for support to continue her fight. She also highlights her book, The Silent War: A COVID Awakening in the Lion City, which details her activism. The trial is set to resume in January 2026.Links:Iris' Buy Me A Coffee - https://buymeacoffee.com/iriskohBuy Book: The Silent Roar: A Covid Awakening in the Lion City - https://buymeacoffee.com/iriskoh/e/425815Alternative link to buy book - https://healingthedivide.cc/2025/08/10/silentroar/Iris Koh on X: https://x.com/IrisKohHTDAbout the book:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xv_WcOcR-5wDedication:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Or7eteEalKkPrevious Interview links:FreeNZ 1st Interview with Iris - https://rumble.com/v6pyuro-iris-koh-brave-freedom-keeper-standing-up-for-truth.html?e9s=src_v1_ucpIris Koh - Court Case Update - April 2025 - https://rumble.com/v6r3px8-iris-koh-court-case-update.html?e9s=src_v1_s%2Csrc_v1_s_oIris Koh: Singapore Court Case Update and Book Preview: https://rumble.com/v6wnods-iris-koh-singapore-court-case-update-and-book-preview.htmlFree Iris Koh | Liz Gunn Reads: https://rumble.com/v5zyusn-free-iris-koh-liz-gunn-reads.html?e9s=src_v1_ucpAffiliates:Dioxi Care - Chlorine Dioxide based Oral Care, Skin Care & Veterinary & Wound Care: https://frontierpharm.com/FreeNZSnoot Spray - Awesome Chlorine Dioxide based Nasal Cleaner: https://www.snootspray.com/FreeNZ⁠Wide Awake Media - Freedom T-Shirts: https://wideawake.clothing/en-nz?sca_ref=9458851.1aXfjvGDqLBuy FreeNZ a tea: https://buymeacoffee.com/supportfreenz

,The team at MMD HQ has always been enthusiastic about fall reading. We shared our first Fall Book Preview back in 2019, and last week we released the seventh annual edition. Today, we're sharing a sneak peek into this year's event that concludes with Anne describing the first three books in our literary and contemporary fiction category.  Our Fall Book Preview offers the gentle guidance you're looking for in selecting your fall reads. This preview and its 35 books are all hand-selected by Anne, and in our Unboxing event recording, she tells you about why she chose every title and why it might (or might not!) appeal to YOU. If this excerpt makes you want to go deeper into this particular type of book talk, you can access your own copy of this year's Fall Book Preview and the Unboxing replay immediately by joining our Modern Mrs Darcy Book Club, our Patreon Community, or purchasing your a la carte ticket.

Seven and a half years ago, a simple question on a cousin's patio changed everything: "How do you stay intentional as a dad?" That moment sparked what became 400 podcast conversations, over 1,000 men mobilized in activation events, and a million dollars raised for ministries serving the fatherless. In this milestone episode, Jeff celebrates by looking back at God's faithfulness, sharing the first-ever preview of the upcoming Dad Awesome book, and highlighting transformational moments from 16 unforgettable conversations that shaped this movement. Takeaways: Milestone moments matter - Pausing to celebrate and shine the spotlight on what God has done builds faith for the journey ahead Small yeses create waves - Dad Awesome wasn't built on one grand gesture but hundreds of small commitments to growth over eight years Intentionality transforms everything - Just like discovering great coffee, small shifts in daily rhythms can revolutionize your entire approach to fatherhood Stories cascade through generations - When dads point to God's goodness consistently, children naturally learn to do the same with their own kids Community accelerates growth - The DA plus three model shows that fatherhood gets exponentially better when you're not doing it alone Generosity reveals faith - Taking steps forward in generosity, whether with time, words, or resources, grows our trust in God's faithfulness Links: Learn about the next DadAwesome Accelerator Cohort Subscribe to DadAwesome Messages: Text the word "Dad" to (651) 370-8618 Download a free chapter of the DadAwesome book Clips from 16 DadAwesome Episodes: 25 | Patei Iyegha 38 | Pursuing Shalom, Chasing Dreams & Being All-On-Dad (Paul Hurckman) 77 | Crafting Key Moments, Modeling KINDNESS & Praying with Desperation (Ryan Skoog) 98 | Awaken The Warrior Heart (Pablo Ceron) 137 | Spirit-Filled Parenting, Hearing God's Voice, & Shaping our Kids as Arrows (Seth Dahl) 148 | Andy Crouch - The Tech-Wise Family 187 | Jon Tyson on Skillful Manhood, Capturing First Moments & The Intentional Father 214 | Context, Fainting Goats & Being Secretly Awesome (Bob Goff) 238 | A Place for the Heart (Ken Helser) 250 | Raising Kids Humbly, Loving Your Wife Fully, and Soaring Joyfully (Morgan Snyder) 286 | Parenting for the Third Generation, Building Family Assets, and Championing the Beauty of Fatherhood (Jeremy Pryor) 298 | Dialing In, Leading with Love, and Being the Loudest Voice in Your Child's Ears (Dr. Jackson Drumgoole) 314 | Tackling Fear in a War Zone, Modeling Courage, and Embracing Your True Identity (Jamie Winship) 364 | Bedtime Blessings, Birthday Letters, and 5 Simple but Life-Changing Habits (Justin Whitmel Earley) 375 | Experiential Christianity, Lingering with Jesus, and The War for Your Attention (John Eldredge) 385 | Raising Kids Who Live Generously, Creating Miracle Moments, and the 1% Challenge (Todd Harper)

MichaelAaron and Richard open with a sneak preview of their upcoming book, Hacking the Human Mind. Next, they revisit the Pringles case study from way back in Episode 7 - a new form factor, a sticky rhyme (“once you pop…”), and the power of fluency. They also unpack skin-in-the-game incentives to favor outcomes over optics.

Trust me I'm Lying by Ryan Holiday, the first book to blow the lid off the speed and force at which rumors travel online and get "traded up" the media ecosystem until they become real headlines and generate real responses in the real world.

Highlights After Catherine's 100% success rate this spring, she encountered a near-full reversal of fortune this summer. Sarah's summer reading improved dramatically over her spring selections. Between Sarah and Catherine, there are several DNFs, one 5-star book, one 3-star book, and a scattering of books in the 4-star range.

Advent is a carved out season that helps us do two primary things. Firstly, we are invited to once again reflect on the incarnation of Christ. We take time to remember when Jesus was born over 2000 years ago. As John writes, we remember when God became flesh and dwelt among us. And then secondly, this season is about anticipating the fact that this same Jesus who was born, who lived, died and rose again, is coming back. Advent is about looking forward - not just to another Christmas morning but to the moment when Christ returns to make all things new. —All Gifts in August will be DOUBLED!

Scientific Advertising by Claude C. Hopkins contains many principles that are common in all performance-based marketing today, such as the idea of testing and measuring ad effectiveness, writing to one person, understanding and using psychology, basing advertising on sales, eliminating risk, learning what the thousands want to understand what the millions will buy. It is indeed impossible to say one understands advertising without having a thorough grasp on the material in this book.1923 Library of Congress Edition"Scientific Advertising" by Claude C.

Today I'm sharing one of my favorite chapters of a book I've ever written. Several years ago, my husband Jay and I released a book calledSuffer Strong. It's all about how we were able to survive anything because we were willing to redefine everything—from failure to trauma to commitment. Even beauty. That's the chapter you're about to hear.Before my stroke, I had never put too much focus on the way I looked. But once my face became paralyzed and my body lost a lot of its typical function, I had no choice but to confront the deep-down story of beauty that I had been told…and believed. After years of grappling with that story, I came to understand that it's actually a story about fear, control, and shame. The truest beauty, it turns out, comes from putting down the shame and embracing our belovedness.If you're ready to trade in your old definitions of beauty and start living in freedom, I pray hearing these words invite you to take the first step in walking away from shame.Suffer Strong - https://a.co/d/8DKyzM7There's so much more to the story.For more messages of hope, free resources, and opportunities to connect with me, visithttps://hopeheals.com/katherine.Follow me in Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/hopeheals/⁠Subscribe to The GoodHard Story Podcast!Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/good-hard-story-podcast/id1496882479Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/0OYz6G9Q2tNNVOX9YSdmFb?si=043bd6b10a664bebWant a little hope in your inbox? ⁠⁠Sign up for the Hope Note⁠⁠, our twice-a-month digest of only the good stuff, like reflections from Katherine and a curated digest of the Internet's most redemptive content:https://hopeheals.com/hopenoteGet to know us:⁠⁠Hope Heals⁠⁠:https://hopeheals.com/⁠⁠Hope Heals Camp⁠⁠:https://hopeheals.com/camp⁠⁠Mend Coffee⁠⁠:https://www.mendcoffee.org/Instagram⁠:https://www.instagram.com/hopeheals/
