Life brings Luke Wolf, a war veteran, back to his hometown, where his sister is, who has Down Syndrome. Things are different, or maybe it's just that now he's different. After years of running from his problems, Luke must face his monsters. MONSTERS WITHIN was written, directed, produced, and stars Devin Montgomery (Worm). The film was executive produced by Curtis Gardner and also stars Kendall Cavener (The Last Rodeo), Skeeta Jenkins (Puppet Master: The Littlest Reich, Jakob's Wife, Satanic Panic), Daniella Montgomery, Brandon Stewart (Sovereign) who was also the DP, and Samuel French (Killers of the Flower Moon, Fear The Walking Dead) in his final starring role before his tragic death. French has won several Best Supporting Actor awards for his intense performance in MONSTERS WITHIN, and the film is dedicated to him. The character of "Elle," who is the main character's sister and the heart and soul of the movie, is played by Devin Montgomery's actual sister, Daniella Montgomery. She has performed at several events for the Down Syndrome Associations and Special Needs choir in Oklahoma. The story of the bond between a brother and sister, with one having special needs, being portrayed as authentically and real as possible, was very important to both Devin and Daniella Montgomery. This award-winning film has screened at numerous film festivals including WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival - WON BRONZE for BEST FIRST FEATURE FILM, Edinburgh Independent Film Festival - WON BEST LEAD ACTOR (Devin Montgomery), Stockholm City International Film Festival - WON BEST ACTOR (Devin Montgomery), Cowpokes International Film Festival - WON BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR (Samuel French), Bare Bones International Film Festival - WON AUDIENCE CHOICE FOR BEST FEATURE FILM and BEST ACTOR (Devin Montgomery), Red Dirt International Film Festival - WON BEST FEATURE FILM, Indie Vegas Film Festival - WON BEST HORROR/THRILLER FEATURE FILM, Massachusetts Independent Film Festival - awarded an OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT FOR FIRST FEATURE FILM, among many other festivals.

Praying with Mary: The Power and Mystery of the Rosary The Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary . . . . . . originated in 1571 after the miraculous Christian victory at the Battle of Lepanto, when the faithful, at the Pope's request, prayed the Rosary for protection against the Ottoman Empire. This triumph was attributed to Mary's intercession, earning her the title “Help of Christians.” The Rosary is not merely as a Marian prayer, but as a prayer to Jesus through Mary . . . a contemplation of Christ's life, death, and glory, with Mary as our guide. The Homily explains three “crownings” of Jesus reflected in the Rosary: 1. The Crown of Grace – the Incarnation, God's gift of salvation. 2. The Crown of Thorns – Christ's suffering and redemptive death. 3. The Crown of Glory – Christ's triumph in heaven. Mary, too, receives her own three crowns: 1. The Crown of Excellence – her purity and virtue. 2. The Crown of Goodness – her maternal help and compassion. 3. The Crown of Love – her perfect relationship with God. Finally, those devoted to Mary receive spiritual crowns: • The Crown of Holiness, gained through imitation of Mary's virtues. • The Crown of a Peaceful Death, aided by her intercession. • The Crown of Glory in Heaven, the eternal reward of the faithful. The Rosary is presented as a spiritual weapon, a summary of the Gospel, and a path to peace and salvation through union with Jesus and Mary.

We break down the geography, the fandom, and why Buffalo deserves its own damn spotlight.And yes, we go there: Taylor Swift's new album has lyrics that'll make you look at Travis Kelce's khakis a little differently.

Stabbed in Indy, arrested at the hospital, and charged with a cocktail of misdemeanors that scream “big alcohol energy.” Was he trying to steal a car? Fight a delivery guy?

It’s the leading cause of preventable death across much of Europe and North America, responsible for the loss of 41 million lives in the US, UK and Canada between 1960 and 2020. These staggering statistics beg the question: Why is anyone still smoking? Dr. Lynn Kozlowski, renowned expert in tobacco use and nicotine policy, is Professor Emeritus and Dean Emeritus of Community Health and Health Behavior at the University of Buffalo. A founding member of the Society for Nicotine and Tobacco Research, he has contributed to four U.S. Surgeon General reports on smoking.

The Boston Red Sox are out of the playoffs after another painful October exit, and the New England Patriots just flipped the AFC conversation with a dramatic 23-20 Monday Night Football win in Buffalo. Rayshawn and Mike go all in on both stories, giving you the most detailed breakdown of where Boston sports stand and what comes next. We open with the Red Sox collapse against the New York Yankees, dissecting every mistake and missed opportunity. Game 2 was defined by defensive breakdowns and costly fielding errors that flipped momentum. Boston’s lineup struck out 12 times in the clincher, exposing a top-heavy order that couldn’t produce in clutch moments. Garrett Crochet gave the team a chance on the mound, but questionable bullpen decisions — including Connelly Early’s quick hook — raised eyebrows. We debate whether the Rafael Devers trade, made to reshape the lineup, ended up hurting the team in this short series, and what it says about Boston’s long-term strategy. Then we take on the Alex Cora question head-on. Is he still the right manager to lead this roster forward, or is a reset overdue? From there, we map out a full offseason blueprint. Boston needs more than tweaks — they need cornerstone moves. We spotlight free-agent and trade targets like Kyle Tucker, Kyle Schwarber, and Pete Alonso, each of whom would immediately transform the lineup’s power and consistency. We also break down key internal decisions: how Jarren Duran’s speed and upside factor into their future plans, whether Wilyer Abreu should be part of the team’s core or trade bait, and how Trevor Story’s health and defense could stabilize the infield. We discuss why Roman Anthony’s development is crucial and why the bullpen must be rebuilt with reliable depth and a clear closer to anchor late-inning leads. The Red Sox can’t afford another “bridge year.” This offseason must be aggressive, decisive, and focused on competing in 2026. Then we shift to football, where Drake Maye’s breakout game has the Patriots fan base buzzing. In just his fifth career start, Maye went toe-to-toe with Josh Allen and came out on top, delivering clutch throws in high-pressure moments and showing major growth in pocket presence and decision-making. Stefon Diggs proved why he’s still a top-tier wide receiver, posting another 100-yard performance and opening up the offense for others. Hunter Henry continues to shine as a reliable red-zone weapon, while rookie running back Treyvion Henderson showed why he could become a cornerstone piece of the offense. We break down how offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels has adjusted the scheme around Maye’s strengths and what that means for the rest of the season. Looking ahead, we discuss how New England must take advantage of Maye’s rookie contract window, why finding a legitimate WR2 is a top priority, and which players — like A.J. Brown or Chris Olave — could be ideal trade or free-agent targets. We also preview the Week 6 matchup against the New Orleans Saints, a classic trap game that could derail the team’s momentum if they’re not prepared. With a young franchise quarterback, an elite receiver, and a defense that can still compete, the Patriots are building something real — and this win in Buffalo could be the moment that turns their season around.
