Podcasts about Braveheart

Leadership Lessons from Show Business In this episode, Tom and Adrienne chat with Steven Puri and trace his unexpected path from a “code monkey” in Northern Virginia to an Academy Award–winning visual-effects producer and later a tech entrepreneur. Steven shares how he bridged left-brain engineering and right-brain creativity on films like Independence Day, Braveheart, and several David Fincher projects. He reflects on lessons learned in Hollywood—managing creatives, nurturing “lightbulb” moments, and building culture—that carry over into hybrid and remote leadership. Long before remote work became a buzzword, Steven was orchestrating VFX teams across studios in Los Angeles, London, and Sydney, balancing creative, financial, and logistical mindsets over distance—an early test of distributed leadership that today's managers face. Throughout the conversation, candid anecdotes like the famed “Bart” trailer story illustrate why inviting every voice can spark game-changing ideas. As our work (and often our brains) has scattered in today's culture, Steven is dedicated to bringing us the tools for intentional focus. Here are a few of the gems gleaned from this fun and flowing conversation: Embrace Diverse Talents: Success in both film and tech comes from uniting creatives, technical experts, and business minds around a shared goal, much like assembling a movie crew. Manage Creativity with Intention: Great leaders know how to create the right environment for creativity—sometimes by giving people more than one project, or by encouraging "rubber ducking" (talking through problems out loud). Best Idea Wins Culture: The most effective teams foster a safe space where anyone, regardless of role, can contribute ideas—echoing Steven Spielberg's approach of valuing input from everyone, even the “coffee boy.” Hire for Passion and Culture Fit: Skills can be developed, but passion and alignment with the team's mission are essential. Hiring the right people is more important than micromanaging. Purposeful Markers and Storytelling: Leaders should set clear markers and use storytelling to help teams understand where they are and where they're going, just as a film uses acts and foreshadowing. Active Listening is Key: The best leaders practice active listening, seeking feedback from users, team members, and even critics, and using it to improve. Leadership is a Practice: Leadership isn't just a set of concepts—it's something you do and refine every day, much like honing a craft in show business. Steven is the Founder and CEO of The Sukha Company with the mission to help millions of people find their focus, achieve more and have a healthy work life. Steven's career started as a newscaster/interviewer for the #1 youth news show in the DC/Baltimore market (on WTTG-TV) and then as a junior software engineer & Thomas J. Watson Scholar at IBM.  After attending USC in Los Angeles, he began working in film production and produced computer-generated visual effects for 14 movies including Independence Day which won the Academy Award for Visual Effects.   Steven's first tech company was Centropolis Effects that produced those CGI effects, and he eventually sold it to the German media conglomerate Das Werk when he was 28. Steven then produced some indie films and eventually went studio-side to develop and produce live-action features as a VP of Development & Production at 20th Century Fox (running the Die Hard and Wolverine franchises) and an EVP at DreamWorks Pictures for Kurtzman-Orci Productions where he worked on Star Trek, Transformers and more. After Fox, Steven returned to building tech companies and founded The Sukha Company - ‘sukha' means ‘happiness from self-fulfillment' in Sanskrit.  The Sukha is a focus app that bundles all the tools necessary to have a focused experience and a healthy, productive workday. Steven lives in Austin, TX now. Connect with Steven: https://www.linkedin.com/in/steven-puri/.

Welcome back to another episode of Denim Wrapped Nightmares, where Berly and LA dive into Supernatural Season 8, Episode 11: "LARP and the Real Girl" - and yes, it's exactly as nerdy as it sounds!What Went Down:Our episode kicks off with poor Ed the accountant getting literally torn apart by invisible horses (talk about a rough night!), followed by Lance projectile vomiting blood all over an interrogation room mirror. The Winchesters investigate and discover both deaths are connected to a LARPing group called Moondoor, where everyone dresses up as elves and orcs and takes their foam sword battles very seriously.The Good Stuff:Charlie's back! Our favorite hacker queen is now ruling over a bunch of LARPers and looking fabulous doing itDean gets fully costumed up and is way into it (that Braveheart speech though!)Sam meets a flirty elf in the tech tent (and maybe visits her tent later, according to Berly's headcanon)The mustache-sporting sheriff who's just happy to let the FBI handle the weird stuffThe Monster:Turns out the real villain is Boltar the Furious (and boy, is he ever furious), who's been using a captive fairy named Gilda to murder anyone who gets too close to his beloved Queen Charlie. His evil plan? Kill everyone, wipe Charlie's memory, and force her to make him king. Therapy would've been cheaper, buddy.The Resolution:Charlie saves the day by destroying the spell book, freeing Gilda and turning Boltar's real sword back into harmless foam. Dean promptly punches the creep's lights out because he was SO done with this whole situation. The fairy tribunal takes Boltar away (and honestly, we'd watch that episode), and our heroes join an epic LARPing battle because sometimes you just need to have a little fun.Gore Counter:2 blood splooges One extremely disturbing quartering sceneLance's face literally bleeding from every orifice (yikes!)The hosts loved the Dean-Charlie friendship, the surprisingly impressive Moondoor setup, and Dean's complete transformation from LARP-mocker to enthusiastic participant.

 Why Japanese Leaders Struggle with Global Executive Presence — and How to Overcome the Barriers What does “executive presence” really mean for Japanese leaders? For global business audiences, executive presence is not about title or position, but about confidence, clarity, and persuasion. International companies such as Toyota, Rakuten, and Takeda Pharmaceuticals want their leaders to be concise, convincing, and credible on the world stage. Too often, Japanese executives equate presence with “perfect English.” In reality, the bigger challenge is projecting leadership gravitas — the ability to command attention and trust — even when English is not flawless. Mini-summary: Executive presence in Japan is less about language mastery and more about projecting leadership confidence and persuasive clarity in global forums. What mindset issues hold Japanese executives back? Two major inhibitors dominate: perfectionism and cultural humility. Japan's “zero defect” culture, admired worldwide in manufacturing by firms like Sony and Toyota, spills into presentations. Leaders fear making even small mistakes in English, so they often stay silent or read scripted speeches. Perfection kills spontaneity. Added to this, Japan prizes modesty over boldness. In contrast, Western executives are expected to speak with assertiveness, drawing on traditions from Athens, Rome, and Churchill's wartime speeches. Without training to reset these mindsets, Japanese executives rarely demonstrate the commanding presence international audiences expect. Mini-summary: Japan's perfectionism and modesty discourage bold communication, limiting executives' ability to project leadership presence internationally. Why is English not the biggest barrier? English fluency is often cited, but it is not the core problem. Countries like China, Korea, and Germany produce leaders with strong executive presence despite English being a second language. The real issue is confidence and delivery. Reading from a script in flawless English still fails to inspire. Audiences in New York, London, or Singapore want leaders who speak authentically and persuasively, not perfectly. Training in mindset flexibility and delivery can bridge the gap faster than language study alone. Mini-summary: English is not the decisive factor; confidence and delivery style matter more than linguistic perfection. Why is Japan's history of public speaking so different? Unlike the West, Japan has little tradition of mass oratory. Samurai leaders gave orders from behind guarded walls, not rousing Braveheart-style speeches. Public speaking only began taking root in 1875, when Yukichi Fukuzawa opened the Enzetsukan (Speech Hall) at Keio University. Compared with Greece, Rome, or America's political speeches, Japan's history of oratory is very recent. Even today, cultural norms discourage standing above others while speaking — a visible sign of status that requires apology. This background explains why confident public speaking is not deeply embedded in Japanese business culture. Mini-summary: Japan's short history of oratory and cultural discomfort with status make confident public speaking a relatively new skill for its executives. Can Japanese leaders develop executive presence? Absolutely. At Dale Carnegie Tokyo Training, we see Japanese executives transform into persuasive international presenters once they shed mindset barriers. Claims that “the Japanese way of speaking is different” are often excuses masking lack of skill. Universal presentation principles — clarity, storytelling, audience engagement — transcend borders. With practice, Japanese leaders can command global stages just as well as peers from the US, Europe, or Korea. Executive presence is a trainable skill, not an inborn talent. Mini-summary: Japanese executives can absolutely learn global-standard presentation skills; presence is a trainable, not innate, leadership quality. Why does this matter for Japan's global future? The gap between Japan and other Asian nations in global presentation ability is stark at international conferences. Leaders from Korea, China, and India increasingly dominate global forums, while Japanese executives too often remain quiet. This lack of executive presence undermines influence, credibility, and leadership brand. If Japanese leaders embrace training, they will build trust, close communication gaps, and strengthen Japan's voice in international business. As globalisation accelerates, mastering executive presence is one of the last frontiers for Japan's competitiveness. Mini-summary: Without stronger executive presence, Japanese leaders risk falling behind Asian peers; mastering it is essential for Japan's global competitiveness. Conclusion Executive presence is not a luxury skill — it is a global requirement for leadership. For Japan, overcoming perfectionism and cultural humility in presentation is critical. International business rewards clarity, confidence, and persuasion. With the right training, Japanese leaders can stand on equal footing with peers from across Asia, Europe, and the US. The result will be greater trust, stronger communication, and a more powerful Japanese leadership presence worldwide.

Estrenamos numeración y comenzamos el año número 15 de la Cueva con uno de los géneros más denostados pero que luego acapara todos los premios. El biopic puede derivar en varios formatos, la hagiografía (el más detestable), el tostón documental, el falso biopic o el invent biopic. Nosotros vamos a hablar de los biopics que no dejan que la realidad les joda una buena película (si, Braveheart), películas que suelen ser bastante decentes pero que tergiversan, omiten episodios o inventan personajes secundarios, no para contarnos la vida de alguien, si no para motivarnos con una historia de superación inventada, emocionarnos con algo que no paso asi o directamente para rascar premios con actores imitando más que actuando y llorando a moco tendido. Bienvenidos a la 15, bienvenidos a la Cueva.

If Jesus hadn't ascended and applied the blood to the mercy seat in Heaven, it would be as if an Israelite has slain a Lamb and not applied the blood to the doorpost on the night of Passover in Egypt. If Jesus hadn't ascended, He would not have been able to pour out His Spirit from the Heavens. His ascension is critical to our covering, our cleansing, and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, and in this revelation lives an invitation for us, also, to be ascended with Him!

When heartbreak hits, it can feel unbearable, like you'll never stop hurting, never find love again, and that maybe the problem is you. In this episode, I sit down with Braveheart alumni Anne, who knows that feeling all too well. After her breakup, she was consumed by fear, self-doubt, and the thought that she wasn't enough. But everything shifted when she learned one powerful concept “I'm allowed to.” This simple reframe helped her release the weight of “I should” and “I have to,” and instead step into permission. Permission to not miss him, permission to move on, and permission to live her own life fully. If you've ever felt stuck in the loop of pain, wondering what's wrong with you, Anne's story and the mindset shift she shares will give you the exact perspective you need to take back your power and start moving forward.

A lot of Christians know the story of Jesus dying on the cross and being resurrected but do not actually take into account that they, too, are unified with Christ in His death and resurrection. If we have truly died with Christ, and if we have also been raised with Him, the possibilities are endless. We have the Spirit of the Living God living and breathing and animating our very bodies! Come with us as we discover what “not I, but Christ in me” really means.THE BRAVEHEART SUMMIT REGISTRATION IS LIVE! Secure your spot today! What is the Braveheart Summit?

Si lo que quieres es un éxito de taquilla con el público gringo, nada mejor que gritar: ¡libertad!. Y en 1995 eso fue lo que hizo “Corazón Valiente” (Braveheart), dirigida, producida y protagonizada por Mel Gibson (antes de convertirse en un fundamentalista religioso psicótico). En una época en la que Hollywood sólo producía películas de acción bien pulidas y comedias ligeras, esta cinta presento la guerra de independencia escocesa de una manera cruda y bruta… y funcionó. Cinco Óscares después, quedó consagrada como la película que resucitó el genero de la épica cinematográfica.A 30 años de su estreno, nos acompaña Luz Adriana Perez-Morales, guionista y productora de ficción y documental, para abordar una pregunta todavía irresuelta: ¿Por qué regresa William Wallace? Y es que, en la película nunca se nos explica por qué deja una vida, con su tío, que a todas luces era mejor, para volver al pueblo en el que vio a toda su familia ser masacrada, y en el que ya no tiene ningún apego o conexión. Esta pregunta resuena con todos y todas: ¿Por qué volvemos a lugares donde no somos bienvenidos, con los exes que nos trataron mal, o a los hábitos que nos hacen daño?

What happens when you finally stop obsessing over your ex, the one you thought would give you everything you ever wanted? In this episode, you'll hear from Braveheart alum Allison, who went from feeling deeply attached and convinced her ex was her only shot at the life she dreamed of… to no longer wanting him at all. And ironically, that's when everything shifted. Together, we unpack the trap of high desire and high attachment, how to loosen your grip without pretending you don't care, and the powerful analogy that changed everything for her healing. If you've ever felt stuck in the loop of “he was the best I'll ever get,” this one will hit home and give you a new way out. The Comeback: https://dorothyabjohnson.com/thecomeback

God's power wasn't meant to be seen around your weakness, but through it. If you've ever felt too broken, too ordinary, or too overwhelmed to carry something sacred, this message will shift your perspective.THE BRAVEHEART SUMMIT REGISTRATION IS LIVE!

In Episode 128 of Badlands Story Hour, Chris Paul and Burning Bright take a deep dive into the iconic film Braveheart, using it as a lens to examine modern narrative warfare, institutional collapse, and the power of individual courage. Drawing parallels between William Wallace's defiance of tyranny and today's decentralized truth-tellers, the hosts explore how stories, both historical and fictional, shape our understanding of freedom, loyalty, and legacy. As legacy media and regime narratives continue to break down, this episode challenges listeners to consider who's writing the story now—and whether we have the bravery to reclaim it.

Most people think finding God is about their effort, but what if it's really about His pursuit of you? In this episode, we explore the life-changing reality that you didn't choose Him, He chose you.

Samedi 26 juillet 2025, commence le nouveau cycle de lectures « Ça va, ça va le monde ! ». Depuis plus de dix ans, RFI fait découvrir des textes et des auteurs ou autrices de théâtre vivant en Afrique, dans les Caraïbes ou au Proche-Orient et écrivant en français pour raconter un monde multilingue et pluriculturel. Chaque année, six textes sont lus en public au Festival d'Avignon, et enregistrés pour diffusion en direct et en vidéo sur Facebook ; puis sur les antennes de RFI le samedi à 17h05, à partir du 26 juillet 2025 jusqu'au 30 août 2025. Des textes engagés, toutes portes ouvertes sur le monde, sa désespérance ou ses conflits, que l'on soit à Beyrouth, Damas, Antananarivo ou Kinshasa. Mais toujours, pointe une note d'humour, une ironie, un éclat de langue qui font l'originalité et la force de ces écritures des Suds. Invité.e.s Hala Moughanie, autrice et dramaturge franco-libanaise née en 1980. Elle a vécu une quinzaine d'années à Paris avant de retourner à Beyrouth en 2003 où elle travaille comme enseignante et journaliste, dans le milieu de la culture et de l'humanitaire.  Elle a été lauréate du Prix RFI Théâtre en 2015 pour son texte Tais-toi et creuse. Son dernier texte Le Ruban a été joué dans le cadre des lectures.  C'est difficile de se dire qu'on va écrire alors que tout s'écroule autour de moi. [...] Il fallait pourtant exprimer cette rage, cette tristesse et questionner le rôle de l'art face aux bombes.  Une pièce écrite au rythme des bombardements dont Beyrouth a été le théâtre, ces derniers mois, et qui raconte une réunion au sein du ministère de la Culture du Liban pour décider qui va couper le ruban lors d'une cérémonie officielle, juste après le cessez-le-feu... mais la guerre est-elle vraiment finie ? Comment continuer à vivre en pleine guerre ?    Mon texte n'est pas là pour briser un silence, mais pour questionner le milieu de la culture et des arts, dans un monde qui permet un génocide. L'artiste a l'obligation de gueuler ! L'artiste n'a pas le droit de vivre coupé des réalités politiques et sociales. Or, en particulier en Occident, les artistes ont un avis sur tout, mais n'ont aucune idée de ce qui se passe ailleurs, ils ne sont pas informés  !  C'est aussi un texte qui nomme les dizaines de milliers de morts à Gaza. L'autrice utilise le terme de génocide plusieurs fois dans son texte. Un mot qui fait débat aujourd'hui en Occident selon les dires de l'autrice.  Wael Kadour, auteur syrien né en 1981. Il a quitté la Syrie en 2011 au début de la guerre civile pour la Jordanie avant de rejoindre la France en 2016. Il écrit en arabe. Je pense que j'écris en arabe pour garder le lien avec ma langue maternelle. Cela me permet de nommer au plus juste.  Son texte Braveheart qui raconte les hallucinations d'une jeune femme écrivaine en exil qui imagine que son bourreau bénéficie, lui aussi, d'un exil politique, a été lu à Avignon. Il mêle le réel et l'imaginaire.  Pendant ce contexte de guerre, souvent la violence est plus forte que l'imagination. Tout se mélange : réalité et fiction. L'artiste doit garder la capacité de raconter la réalité, qui est très complexe.  Lectures d'Avignon du cycle  « Ça va, ça va le monde ! » sur notre antenne tous les samedis à partir du 26 juillet 2025 jusqu'au 30 août 2025. - 26/07/2025 : Enfant, de Gad Bensalem (Madagascar), lauréat du Prix Théâtre RFI 2024. - 02/08/2025 : Silence, d'Israël Nzila (République Démocratique du Congo). - 09/08/2025 : Petit Guide illustré pour illustre grand guide, d'Edouard Elvis Bvouma (Cameroun). - 16/08/2025 : Chèvres, de Liwaa Yazii (Syrie). Traduit de l'arabe par Leyla-Claire Rabih et Jumana Al-Yasiri avec le soutien de la maison Antoine Vitez. - 23/08/2025 : Le Ruban, de Hala Moughanie (Liban). - 30/08/2025 : Braveheart, de Wael Kadour (Syrie). Traduit de l'arabe par Simon Dubois avec le soutien de la Maison Antoine Vitez.

30 years after Mel Gibson's Braveheart cloaked Hollywood in fake tartan, Ellen E Jones and Mark Kermode take the high roads and the low roads to look for the real Scotland on screen.Ellen talks with Tayside journalist Kayleigh Donaldson about the trouble with Braveheart, why veteran Scottish director Bill Forsyth's hyper local comedy dramas Local Hero, Gregory's Girl, and That Sinking Feeling have such international appeal, and why movies such as Ben Sharrock's Limbo tell a different kind of story about Scotland.Comedian and writer Frankie Boyle tells Ellen why Gregory's Girl is one of Scotland's most beloved films, why Lynne Ramsay's New York City based thriller You Were Never Really Here starring Joaquin Phoenix as a violent mercenary feels so Scottish, and his reservations about Danny Boyle's Trainspotting.Mark reconnects with legendary Scottish actor and star of Succession Brian Cox who has returned to Scotland to make his directorial debut Glenrothan. They discuss Brigadoon, Braveheart (which starred Brian Cox), cultural neglect, and the Powell & Pressburger classic movie set on the Isle of Mull, I Know Where I'm Going.Producer: Freya Hellier A Prospect Street production for BBC Radio 4

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”What epic tale have we fallen into, and what role are we meant to play? This question lies at the heart of our exploration of authentic masculinity and spiritual warfare in a chaotic world.Drawing from the wisdom of St. John Paul II, Henry David Thoreau, and even Sam Gamgee from Lord of the Rings, we examine the profound crisis facing today's young people. In a culture where 50% of teen girls report persistent sadness and 30% have considered suicide, something has clearly gone terribly wrong. Yet within this darkness, we're witnessing young men awakening to the realization that they were created for something more.The Claymore sword—the heavy, two-handed weapon made famous in Braveheart—represents our approach to spiritual combat. Unlike the emasculated vision of manhood promoted by our culture, we recognize that authentic masculinity requires courage, strength, and a willingness to fight for what matters. But as St. John Paul II taught, the first battle must be fought on the battlefield of our own hearts—between love and lust, between selfishness and self-giving.Download the Claymore Militus Christi Battle Plan and join us in reclaiming what it means to be a man.

How did you respond to that desire?“You will seek me and find me; when you seek me with all your heart, I will be found by you, says the Lord.”—Jeremiah 29:13–14Sam Gamgee asks, “I wonder what sort of tale we've fallen into?”—do you feel like your life is part of a larger story? If so, who is writing it, and what role might you be playing?“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.”—Ephesians 2:10In a world full of noise, opinions, and competing truths, where do you go—or where could you begin to go—to seek what is truly good, beautiful, and true? “And you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”—John 8:32The chapter mentions the “line between good and evil running through every human heart.” Where in your own life do you feel that tension most, and what helps you stay grounded in the fight for the good?“Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”—Matthew 26:41Support the show

Today, we're switching things up. This episode isn't about money. It's about meaning. And someone who knows a lot about that subject is Matt Earl Beesley, who turned a childhood love of film into a decades-long directing career—and is now channeling that experience into a passion project with a powerful message, all while building a life and career on his terms.Matt Earl is a Hollywood director whose credits include Braveheart, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, CSI: Miami, Criminal Minds, Bosch, The Closer, and Chicago Fire, just to name a few. He's worked side-by-side with legends like Clint Eastwood and Steven Spielberg. But beneath the glamorous résumé is a down-to-earth family man who chose passion over prestige and lifestyle over burnout.In this conversation, Matt Earl shares how he broke into one of the most competitive industries in the world, the mindset that carried him from minimum wage intern to top-tier director, and why collaboration—not ego—is the secret weapon of success.He also opens up about his new film project set in Texas—one that blends family, integrity, and the emotional complexity of immigration. If you've ever wondered whether you can pursue your craft, make a difference, and still live life on your terms—this episode is your inspiration.In this episode, you'll learn: 1.) The secret to getting your foot in the door—even when everyone tells you your dream is impossible.2.) The mindset shift Matt Earl learned from Clint Eastwood that transformed his approach to leadership and creativity.3.) Why now might be the best time to invest in indie films—and how Matt Earl's new movie gives investors a shot at doing good and doing well.Show Notes: LifestyleInvestor.com/246Tax Strategy MasterclassIf you're interested in learning more about Tax Strategy and how YOU can apply 28 of the best, most effective strategies right away, check out our BRAND NEW Tax Strategy Masterclass: www.lifestyleinvestor.com/taxStrategy Session For a limited time, my team is hosting free, personalized consultation calls to learn more about your goals and determine which of our courses or masterminds will get you to the next level.

This week on the Granger Smith Podcast, Granger welcomes back his brother Parker Smith—CEO of Yee Yee Apparel and the mastermind behind one of YouTube’s fastest-growing gun channels, YeeYee Life. They dive into the creative madness behind the viral videos (like shooting ATM machines and prison doors), sourcing wild items from Facebook Marketplace, and the deeper message behind faith-driven merchandise. The conversation takes a powerful turn as Granger shares a story of conviction sparked by a simple sandwich shop encounter and reflects on how even our wardrobe can be a witness to the Gospel. He opens up about an upcoming mission trip to Latin America, walking listeners through a fresh sermon he’s preparing on Luke 7—where Jesus forgives a sinful woman, and how it reveals our universal need for grace and forgiveness. Later, the guys get real about movies that make them cry (from Braveheart to Old Yeller), and tackle a thought-provoking listener question about Catholic vs. Protestant doctrine—covering topics like Mary’s sinlessness, transubstantiation, and sola scriptura. Whether you’re deep in theology or just want to hear brothers laugh about Tyler skipping the show for a massage, this episode balances humor, heart, and truth beautifully. ********************************************** CONNECT WITH MY PODCAST: Instagram► https://instagram.com/GrangerSmithPod YouTube► https://www.YouTube.com/@UCD1JSCn257RlatavklMALyg My NEW BOOK HERE▶ www.grangersmith.com APPAREL™️ GEAR ▶ https://YeeYeeApparel.com SUBSCRIBE HERE ▶ http://smarturl.it/gschannelsubscribe Subscribe to my family channel here ▶ http://youtube.com/TheSmithsTV TALK TO ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Instagram► https://instagram.com/GrangerSmith Facebook► https://facebook.com/GrangerSmith Twitter► https://twitter.com/GrangerSmith Website► https://GrangerSmith.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Mind Shift Podcast, Aaron and Erwin McManus reflect on a major transition as Mosaic moves out of its long-time Hollywood home. They recount the final worship night where nearly 900 people gathered and 70–80 baptisms took place, marking the end of an era. The conversation touches on the new campuses now emerging in Calabasas, South Pasadena, Culver City, and Studio City. Erwin shares emotional reflections on the legacy of the building and the many lives transformed there, while Aaron underscores how movement and growth have always been part of Mosaic's DNA.The episode also dives into the ongoing exploration of Genesis and the growing interest from new audiences, with a notable 60–80% of listeners being first-time participants. Erwin explains why staying in Genesis offers endless opportunities for reflection and theological curiosity. They emphasize the importance of disagreement and diversity of thought within their community, encouraging listeners to engage, question, and wrestle with scripture. This ethos of open dialogue and mutual respect shapes their approach to both the Bible and the people engaging with it.As the discussion unfolds, Aaron shares a moment where he called out performative criticism in church culture, and Erwin unpacks how terms like “heretic” are often weaponized to enforce conformity. Drawing from history, they discuss how ideas once deemed heretical—like heliocentrism—eventually reshaped how we understand truth. Erwin stresses the necessity of intellectual honesty and the courage to question long-held traditions. The conversation becomes a call to spiritual integrity, where truth is not inherited but discovered through inquiry and faith.Throughout the episode, Erwin shares his own theological journey and how he starts with Jesus—not a system—when interpreting scripture. Using analogies like Oppenheimer's role as a theorist, he explains his focus on deep questions over surface answers. This leads into a thoughtful reflection on the Old Testament, which he compares to stories like *Braveheart* and *Gladiator*, noting how its themes of freedom, honor, and struggle mirror real human experience. He reminds listeners that the Bible was written by the oppressed, not the powerful, and that its messiness is part of its authenticity.Finally, the conversation turns toward the future of theology and the church. Erwin critiques the stagnating effect of the phrase “there's nothing new under the sun,” arguing that it limits innovation and imagination in faith communities. He shares his own experience being blacklisted for advocating creativity and change, and stresses the urgent need for early adopters and innovators to influence theology today. The episode closes with talk of future long-form episodes, community events in different cities, and a shared excitement to keep exploring faith, scripture, and transformation—starting with Jesus and moving outward from there.

Remora, founded in 2020 in Michigan, retrofits diesel locomotives and semi-trucks with onboard systems that capture, liquify, and purify up to 90% of CO₂ emissions – while also cutting soot, particulates, and NOₓ – then stores it for offloading and sale, sharing revenue with operators. Backed by $117 M in venture funding and piloting with major players like Union Pacific, Norfolk Southern, Ryder, Werner, and DHL, the company overcame early design issues (like waterlogging and backpressure) and is now scaling for broader deployment.–Paul is the co-founder and CEO at Remora. In 2021, he was named to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list. He earned his bachelor's degree in Statistics and Data Science from Yale University, where his research received the Porter Prize, the highest class-wide thesis prize.–In this podcast, we talked about how they got investors excited to invest $117M, why unit economics are so important, the joy of doing hard things, why expertise is overrated, the reason why reading biographies is so helpful, how he got the idea for this company as a senior at Yale University, why you should watch the movies Tommy Boy and Braveheart, and how the cost of capital influenced his choice of business model.–
