Podcast appearances and mentions of Bruce Anderson

What does your schedule reveal about your spiritual priorities? In this thought-provoking episode, Jesse Cope confronts us with a challenging truth: the way we allocate our time speaks volumes about what we truly value, often contradicting what we claim to believe.Through a careful examination of Matthew 11, we explore Jesus's gentle invitation to all who are weary and heavy-laden. There's something profoundly comforting about reaching the end of our own strength and wisdom, finally surrendering our problems to God when we've exhausted every human solution. As Jesse shares from personal experience: "I've tried everything... and then I get to the point where I look at God and Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit and I go 'y'all got to figure this out.'" This moment of surrender, though born of desperation, brings unexpected peace when we recognize it's no longer on us.The conversation takes a fascinating historical turn as we consider the unique foundations of American liberty. If other systems—whether religious or political—could have produced what America did, why didn't they when they held centuries of unchallenged power? The conclusion is compelling: "Liberty is produced in association with God and Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit." Our current national struggles, Jesse suggests, stem not from flawed founding principles but from abandoning them.Perhaps most poignant are the reflections on how we treat those closest to us. Through examining early Christian martyrdom and the tragic history of believers persecuting one another, we're confronted with our own tendency to take for granted those relationships that should be most precious. The marriage relationship especially—meant to reflect Christ's relationship with the church—often receives our worst rather than our best.Whether you're questioning your priorities, seeking spiritual rest, or interested in the connection between faith and freedom, this episode offers both challenging questions and comforting truths that will stay with you long after listening.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

What a Creep“The Disappearance of Bobby Dunbar” (1912)Season 29, Episode 1Margo & Sonia love us a creepy historical crime, and what is more puzzling than the case of Bobby Dunbar? In 1912, four-year-old Bobby Dunbar vanished during a family trip to Swayze Lake, Louisiana, sparking a massive search. Eight months later, a boy resembling Bobby was found with a handyman, William Walters, who insisted the child was Bruce Anderson, the son of Julia Anderson. Despite her claims, the Dunbars took the boy and raised him as Bobby. In 2004, DNA testing confirmed he was not biologically related to the Dunbars, meaning the real Bobby Dunbar's fate remains unknown, making this one of history's most haunting cases of mistaken identity.Sources for this episode:RankerWikipedia This American Life ep 352BuzzFeed VideoMorbid PodcastCountry Roads MagazineAll That's InterestingIFL Science Trigger warning: Child abduction Be sure to follow us on social media.

This week's episode is – drumroll – Chapter 3 of Dancing the Tightrope. I'm just going to say it – you were right and I was wrong! I'm speaking to those who've been telling me for a long time that they would appreciate an audio version of my book.  Not only have I been getting great feedback and gratitude for providing the book in this form, but I have also surprisingly enjoyed reading it myself. After all, I wrote this over 4 years ago. It's given me a fresh perspective on the themes and principles I began learning and refining after my fall from the horse – and it's also shown me how far I've come. For example, if you had told the 2020 version of me that I would be riding with Stevie Delahunt at an endurance boot camp a mere five years later, I would have laughed in your face. But that's where I was in early March when Chapter 2 of the book came out. It just goes to show you that you can teach an old – dare I say it – dog new tricks.  This chapter sets the stage for so much of what I've put into practice in the last five years. It chronicles my first visit to Camden to work with Bruce Anderson. To say that I was resistant is an understatement. So was Jen, as you will hear in this Chapter 3 of Dancing the Tightrope. 

It's only been 48 hours and opening impressions rarely last long, but what about these?  How damaging was Danielle Smith's US interview to Pierre Poilievre?  Bruce Anderson and Fred DeLorey are here with their spin.   

There seems to be a poll a day recently and while they're each a bit different, there is one common theme.  The Liberals are back and the race between them and the Conservatives is very tight.  So how are the political pros responding to this?  That's the question for Smoke, Mirrors and The Truth panelists Bruce Anderson from the Liberals and Fred DeLorey from the Conservatives.

Bruce Anderson and Fred Delorey drop by for a Smoke Mirrors and the Truth episode that deals with what is now a daily issue -- how to deal with the Trump Factor in A Campaign? 

As Trump humiliates Zelensky, has Washington quietly decided to switch sides? In this Despatch, Bruce Anderson dissects a moment of historic uncertainty—one that rivals the upheaval of the post-Pearl Harbor years. With Europe forced to rethink its reliance on US protection and negotiations with Moscow looming, what comes next for Ukraine, NATO, and the global balance of power? Despatch is a fresh addition to The Capitalist, bringing you the best writing from CapX's unmissable daily email briefings. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Two decades before the Lindbergh baby became America's most famous missing child, four-year-old Bobby Dunbar, went missing in Opelousas, Louisiana, setting in motion one of the strangest kidnapping stories in the nation's history.In the summer of 1912, the Dunbar family took a trip to Swayze Lake in St. Landry Parish, where Bobby wandered off and disappeared. The boy's disappearance was followed by an eight-month search across the American south, until Bobby was ostensibly found in the company of William Walters, a handyman traveling through the Mississippi. Bobby's parents were elated to have their son back after such a long absence, but the problem was, very few people seem convinced that the boy was in fact Bobby Dunbar.After extensive news coverage of the search, Walters' trial for kidnapping, and the joyful return of Bobby to his family, interest in the case began to fade, but for the Dunbar family, questions remained about Bobby's identity. Had the Dunbars, in their desperation to find their son, unintentionally kidnapped someone else's child?

How do we know that we're going to yield some of this result? So if we get a certain number of things donated at the Habitat Restore, for example, which things are going to yield the best profits? Which things have the best margin? Which things have the quickest inventory turn? Because these are terms that people are going as a not for profit. What do you mean inventory turn? If it sits in our warehouse, it sits in the shop there for a period of time. It costs us money. It costs us floor space. It's an opportunity cost because we could put other things that are more profitable in there. So some of these metrics that you would naturally think about have to be used.Munir Haque: [00:00:40] Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of The Boardroom 180 Podcast. I'm your host, Munir Haque, an executive coach and senior board strategist. I have partnered with Action Edge Executive Development to lead their governance and political acumen division.

A mentor to entrepreneurs and passionate community leader, welcome to The Boardroom 180 Podcast, Mr. Anderson.Bruce Anderson: [00:02:21] Thanks, Munir.Munir Haque: [00:02:23] I always find that a good gauge of how active somebody is in the community is whether or not my kids know them. And for this I've got stories of two of my kids that have crossed paths with you. So my daughter, I think was about five years ago, during some of her onboarding at University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon, that onboarding weekend, she went up, and I attended with her and we got to at least watch. I think it was a student entrepreneur competition. And at that competition you were up in Saskatoon and you were one of the judges. So that's one of my kids. And then needless to say, she's not in business anymore. She switched into one of the more social sciences and now is just starting her master's in public health.Bruce Anderson: [00:03:11] I remember those teams well, the kids were great.Munir Haque: [00:03:15] We were just in the audience, but I saw you from the back, and I think I came up to you afterwards. The other thing is, my son is currently finishing off his bachelors of administration at University of Regina. He's taken a handful of courses from you, and he has good things to say about you. So once again, it goes to show how much you do in the community, how well my kids know your name.Bruce Anderson: [00:03:36] Fair enough, yeah.Munir Haque: [00:03:39] 21 boards, that'...

We start this week with a simple question -- where is all the money coming from to pay for massive new housing and school lunch programs? With a budget now less than two weeks ago and multi billion dollar programs being dropped almost daily it's an important question. But so is the future of the NDP, with some high profile new departures from Jagmeet Singh's next campaign candidate list. Rob Russo filling in for Bruce Anderson and Chantal Hebert have their say.

Going back to the future may be one way to look at Housing Minister Sean Fraser's latest announcement for a housing fix. Another way may be to listen again to what the Random Ranter had to say on housing on September 7th!  Bruce Anderson is here for SMT.

A very strange couple of days for Joe Biden.  Weekend polling was disastrous for the Democrats, but last night's voting results were anything but. What to make of that is the topic for SMT today with Bruce Anderson.

After a day of meetings in Ottawa, the prime minister has announced that Canada is joining the call for "humanitarian pauses" in the Israel-Hamas war so civilians in Gaza can receive aid. Is there a distinction between humanitarian pauses and ceasefires? Does it matter? Bruce Anderson joins to discuss on this week's SMT.

Another horrific scene, this time in Gaza, and of all places a hospital.  Who did it and why?  That is the question today as accusations and counter-accusations reverberate across the Middle East and the world. Bruce Anderson is by with a classic SMT on this.  Plus some thoughts on Pierre Poilievre's apple-picking video.

Our weekly chat with Bruce Anderson with disinformation the topic at hand. More examples, some quite sophisticated, are having an impact and the question centre stage is how to deal with it. And also some thoughts about where to look for leadership on the world stage.

Lots to talk about this week with Bruce Anderson on SMT from Wab Kinew's historic Manitoba election victory, to the challenge the new Speaker faces in Ottawa, and who knows what about the soaring price of turkey!  Plus a new segment Bruce wants to call "Grovel" where I correct things I got wrong in the last week.

How much worse can things get for the Liberals? Does Justin Trudeau have a plan to recover from the "Nazi in the parliamentary gallery" story?  If so, will it be enough to make people forget the national embarrassment caused by last Friday's incident. Bruce Anderson on that, plus his thoughts on how two polls done at the same time with the same question can result in such very different results.

With an increasingly vocal caucus demanding answers to the Liberal's nosedive in the polls, Justin Trudeau faces his internal party critics. What does he have to say and do to calm their fears, or is that even possible?  Bruce Anderson looks at the smoke, the mirrors and the truth.

Bruce Anderson joins for an attempt to deconstruct two key political moments -- one in Ontario and one in Manitoba.  One happened here and what are the lessons for all of us who consider ourselves political junkies.  

Bill Patton is Mr. Right Place Right Time.In this episode Bill tells personal stories about Bruce Anderson, Derek Bell and Janis Joplin's 356.Send questions and suggestions to bracken621@gmail.com https://www.circuitsixfour.com/https://www.instagram.com/circuit6four/https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inboxhttps://www.tiktok.com/@user2120922840085/

Four byelections this week have some Conservatives worried about the future.  Should they be or is it all just smoke and mirrors?Brian Mulroney gives Justin Trudeau a rousing introduction -- what's up with that?   And are news organizations making the right call on their breathless reporting of the latest Titanic story?  Veteran journalist Rob Russo sits in for Bruce Anderson this week.

Artificial Intelligence was on the minds of Washington legislators yesterday and the discussion was not only important it was for the most part non-partisan.  Some important points are being made and one wonders whether Ottawa will soon do the same. It was more than two months ago on this program that Conservative MP Michelle Rempel Garner rang the bell on the issue and could more be around the corner?  Bruce Anderson is back with his thoughts on this and more.

Katie Telford is the prime minister's most senior staffer and his closest advisor.  And now she has agreed to testify before the parliamentary committee looking into the alleged Chinese interference in the 2019 and 2021 federal elections.  If she could appear why can't the prime minister?  That and a lot more up for discussion with Bruce Anderson on SMT.  And we'll also discuss Joe Biden's visit to Ottawa this week.

The pressure keeps mounting for some sort of real inquiry into how China tried to influence Canadian elections, and what if anything the Trudeau government did about it.  Susan Delacourt sits in for a vacationing Chantal Hebert today alongside Bruce Anderson.  It's a lively discussion dealing with some pretty serious questions.

Did the Chinese interfere with the Canadian elections in 2019 and 2021 and did Canada know they were doing so?  Those two questions continue to hang over the Trudeau government and their handling of the issue isn't helping their case.  Bruce Anderson on that and, Fox News -- does lying even matter anymore?

Toronto and Ontario are rocked by two scandals while at the same time, much of the country gets focused on unidentified flying objects.  Bruce Anderson puts on his alien detector to take a run at all these stories.  And a few moments too on Nicola Sturgeon calling it quits in Scotland.

Bobby Dunbar was a four-year-old boy who had gone on a fishing trip with several members of his family, along with family friends. When Bobby goes missing one day in 1912, his family searches for him for weeks, but finds no evidence of an animal that has eaten him, someone who kidnapped him, or any sort of accident. There's just...nothing. Eight months later, a telegram comes in stating that a boy who looks like Bobby was spotted in Mississippi. Bobby's mother is hesitant to say for sure that this is her missing son, but soon finds birthmarks and other signs that this boy is Bobby. She is ultimately certain that her lost son has been found. On the other side, you have a different mother claiming that the boy is actually HER son, a boy by the name of Bruce Anderson. DNA evidence comes in decades later to solve a part of this mystery and determine if the boy found was actually Bobby Dunbar. Sources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Bobby_Dunbar https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYUdnsIn5OUhttps://www.thisamericanlife.org/352/transcript

August 23, 1912 was a day that changed the fates of two families for generations to come. Two women greiving the loss of their son, are claiming that the same child is in fact that son!!! So is Lessie Dunbar or is the little boy really Bruce Anderson, Julia's son?
