How do you pull off the biggest, most violent smash-and-grab in human history? You can't just say that's what you're doing. You need a story. You need a justification. This episode is a three-part journey into the long, dark, and ridiculously complicated shadow of empires, framed as "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly". Part 1: The "Good" We dissect the official PR campaign for global domination. This is the "civilizing mission", the "divine mandate", and the "enlightened" philosophy of men like John Locke and John Stuart Mill. We explore how scientific racism and cultural projects like Orientalism created "The Other" , culminating in the infamous "White Man's Burden". Part 2: The "Bad" This is the reckoning. We watch as the colonized turn the master's own tools—"Liberty, Equality, Fraternity"—against him, exposing the empire's glaring hypocrisy. We cover the earth-shattering Haitian Revolution, Gandhi's brilliant moral theater with the Salt March, and the groundbreaking philosophy of liberation. We dive deep into Frantz Fanon's devastating diagnosis of colonialism as a mental illness and Edward Said's unmasking of Orientalism. Part 3: The "Ugly" The story doesn't end when the flags come down. We confront the world we live in now: Neo-Colonialism. We trace how the system mutated, swapping soldiers for bankers. This is the story of the IMF and World Bank, "Structural Adjustment Programs" that crippled new nations, and the creation of a new "comprador" elite. Finally, we explore the new liberation movements, from "decolonizing the mind" to the urgent fights for debt forgiveness and climate justice. This isn't just a history lesson; it's a look at the code that still runs our world. Support me to keep the show going on Patreon https://patreon.com/dannyballan

Malachi 4:4-6

Adversity can be a burden we carry or a bridge to a glorious future.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this second part of our Charlie Kirk conversation, the Burden brothers continue an unfiltered discussion about faith, conviction, and tone.Is “hard truth” automatically harsh? Can strength and gentleness coexist in public witness? And what happens when political identity gets tangled with Christian belief?Anton, Aaron, and Adrian unpack how conservative voices have shaped college campuses, why tone matters as much as truth, and what real masculinity looks like when it's governed by the Spirit rather than ego. From Turning Point USA to Philippians 4:5, this episode wrestles with the tension between boldness and humility—and asks what kind of strength actually honors Christ.Key themes:The effectiveness and limits of platformed debateMasculinity vs. toxic masculinity in Christian culturePolitical conservatism and Christian witnessGentleness as strength under controlHow to engage convictionally without losing compassionListen if you've ever asked:“How do we stand firm in truth without losing grace?” Thanks for Listening!

The Stones go punk, disco, and full swagger.

It's a deep dive into the punk vs. disco era, the Pathé Marconi sessions, and how Some Girls proved the Stones could still out-cool everyone.

 This episode was created in collaboration with, and first posted on, The Itch podcast. Mucus plugging is a challenge in asthma care. It's thick, sticky mucus that blocks the airways and doesn't respond to regular inhalers. Even when inflammation improves, these plugs can lower lung function, limit how well medicine works, and make asthma harder to control. In this episode, The Itch breaks down the study: “Effect of Dupilumab on Mucus Burden in Patients with Moderate-to-Severe Asthma,” published Oct. 28, 2025. The analysis looks at whether dupilumab (Dupixent), a biologic that blocks IL-4 and IL-13, can lower mucus burden and improve lung function, especially in people who start with a high “mucus plug score.” Read the paper: https://www.atsjournals.org/doi/abs/10.1164/rccm.202410-1894OC

While we are in a great place of excitement for Lord and to see him move in Revival. We must first look to past moves of God to understand more about what Revival looks like, the spiritual cost that comes with it and to examine ourselves are we truly in position with the capacity to carry it out under the leading of Holy Spirit? There are 3 parts to this message: The Necessary role a BURDEN from the Lord plays in Revival, are we positioned to STEWARD it and to build an appetite for the FRUIT of Revival. Key Scripture is Zechariah 4:6 ESV "...Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the LORD."

Can high-achieving women really have it all—or are we burning out trying to prove we can? In this episode of Superwoman Diaries, Jessica Colarco interviews Sarah Bolor, a licensed clinical social worker and founder of Say It Mental Health. Sarah specializes in helping high achieving women overcome burnout, perfectionism, and people pleasing. The conversation explores Sarah's journey into social work, her experiences with grief, and the challenges faced by high achieving women in balancing personal and professional lives. They discuss strategies for self-care, the importance of setting boundaries, and the impact of societal expectations on women's mental health. Sarah shares her insights on navigating motherhood while maintaining a career and emphasizes the need for self-compassion and positive self-talk. Inside This Conversation: Sarah Bolor helps high achieving women break free from burnout. The importance of setting boundaries for mental health. Grief can be supported through community and professional help. High achieving women often struggle with perfectionism and people pleasing. Self-worth is often tied to achievements for high achieving women. Finding balance is more about aligning values than achieving equality. Daily self-talk can significantly impact mental health.

11/2/25-Dr. Phillip Burden-No Other Sacrifice for Sin by Sermons from FBCOzark

Nehemiah's story begins with a moment of awareness — he sees the brokenness around him, feels the weight of it, and lets that burden move him to action. In the same way, God often calls His people to see, feel, and build in specific seasons and places.As we step into this season as a church, we're believing together for our vision: to see Wichita experience the real Jesus. Let's open our eyes, carry the burden, and build what God is calling us to.

In this message, we will explore what it truly means to bear one another’s burdens, sow seeds of goodness, and reflect Christ’s heart in how we treat others. Join us as we learn how to stay steadfast in doing good, even when it’s hard, and trust that in due season, we will reap a harvest if we don’t give up.

In this episode, Dr. Josh Tamayo-Sarver, Vice President of Innovation at Vituity, discusses how agentic AI can move beyond automation to strengthen trust between patients and clinicians.

“Please—all of you people out there—don't wait until you're dying to see the beauty in life.” Becca was diagnosed with stage two breast cancer at 34, went into remission, and eleven years later—when she thought she was in the clear—her cancer returned as stage four metastatic disease. What followed was a journey through brutal treatment side effects, painful decisions about quality versus quantity of life, and a profound reckoning with faith, value, and what it means to live authentically while dying. In this week's episode, Becca shares her experience leaving evangelical Christianity after her first diagnosis, wrestling with what makes a life worth living when you're sleeping 14-15 hours a day, and the reality that even within cancer communities, certain truths feel taboo to speak. She talks about the irony of saying “I'll never treat again” and then, when faced with recurrence, immediately asking “How do we treat this?” Becca's story is filled with hard-won wisdom about flexibility, authenticity, and the surprising peace that can come from facing uncertainty without the answers she once relied on. Tune in to hear Cody and Becca explore: The gap between what we say we'll do and what we actually do when facing terminal illness Leaving evangelical Christianity and finding peace in uncertainty as an atheist facing death Quality versus quantity of life: setting boundaries and taking treatment “vacations” Redefining personal value from “a human doing” to “a human being” The loneliness of dying and what's taboo even in cancer communities How “life isn't fair” can cut both ways Parenting through terminal illness and the legacy we leave in our children's minds Patient autonomy: “This is our life. We get to call the shots.” Note: This episode includes a content warning regarding discussion of suicidal ideation and self-harm during Becca's first cancer diagnosis.

How dupilumab may help: Learn how this biologic blocks IL-4 and IL-13, two key drivers of type 2 inflammation that increase mucus production and thickness. Inside the VESTIGE study: Hear how researchers measured mucus burden using CT scans and “mucus plug scores” to see if dupilumab could reduce plugging in moderate-to-severe asthma.

In this episode of Explaining History, Nick is joined by acclaimed author Anne Weber to discuss her new book Sanderling (Indigo Press, 2025) — a deeply personal and philosophical exploration of family, identity, and the shadow of Germany's past.Through the story of her great-grandfather Florens Christian Rang — a theologian, lawyer, and close friend of figures such as Walter Benjamin and Martin Buber — Weber examines four generations of her family to ask profound questions:What does it mean to be German, then and now?How can one man's moral convictions coexist with his son's later embrace of Nazism?How do history and guilt pass through families and nations alike?Weber and Nick discuss Rang's life and writings, the moral tensions of Germany's unification and imperial period, and how Weber's narrative approach — blending travelogue, reflection, and history — reveals how the past extends into the present.The conversation also turns outward: to Europe's shared colonial legacies, the persistence of national myths, and the uneasy balance between remembrance and denial.“It's a little bit like discovering your father was a serial killer,” Weber says, describing the weight of Germany's historical consciousness. Yet through her writing, she transforms that burden into a journey of understanding — and of reckoning.

What if lean isn't about process charts or takt times but about how you move through the world? In Japan, there's a word for it: Meiwaku - "Don't be a burden to others." It's not a slogan. It's a way of living. In this episode, Jason shares how that single mindset seen everywhere from clean job sites to silent train rides could transform how we build, lead, and live. From teaching his kids one-piece flow at Spirit Halloween to calling out everyday chaos on construction sites, Jason unpacks how awareness, respect, and space-consciousness can reshape entire project cultures. If you've ever wanted a job site with real flow, fewer arguments, and more human connection… this is the concept you've been missing. Listen in and learn why "don't be a burden to others" might be the most powerful lean principle of all.

Read OnlineBut the leader of the synagogue, indignant that Jesus had cured on the sabbath, said to the crowd in reply, “There are six days when work should be done. Come on those days to be cured, not on the sabbath day.” The Lord said to him in reply, “Hypocrites! Does not each one of you on the sabbath untie his ox or his ass from the manger and lead it out for watering?” Luke 13:14–15Why would the leader of the synagogue be “indignant” that Jesus cured a woman on the sabbath? She was crippled for eighteen years! Imagine, especially, her family. They would have seen her many years of suffering and shared them with her through years of compassion. If they were present when Jesus healed her on the sabbath, would they have immediately thought, “How dare Jesus do this healing of our mother, wife or sister on the sabbath?” Of course not! They would have rejoiced and been filled with awe, gratitude, and even tears. This normal reaction that her family would have had upon witnessing this miracle is the right response. And, of course, the reaction of the leader of the synagogue was deeply disordered. Why would this leader of the synagogue do such a thing? Though he and many other scribes, Sadducess, Pharisees and scholars of the law struggled with envy and hypocrisy, others may sometimes react similarly to this leader of the synagogue for other reasons. One such reason is scrupulosity.Scrupulosity is the tendency to see God and His holy will through the lens of legalism. “Legalism” is not just being faithful to the Law of God, because that is a good thing. Legalism is a misinterpretation of God's Law by which one tends to put more emphasis upon themselves than upon God. A scrupulous person is preoccupied with themself. They tend to be far more concerned with sin than with God Himself. And though it's vital to be concerned with sin, when fear of sinning becomes a form of obsession, then that obsession has the effect of clouding the pure will of God and leaves a person heavily burdened and unable to joyfully live out the authentic will of God.Saint Thérèse of Lisieux was one saint who openly shared her struggles with scrupulosity in her autobiography. Of this struggle, which she referred to as “oversensitivity,” she said, “One would have to pass through this martyrdom to understand it well, and for me to express what I experienced for a year and a half would be impossible.” However, she eventually experienced what she called a “complete conversion” by which the heavy burden of oversensitivity was lifted. Though this oversensitivity oppressed her in various ways, one way it affected her was that she feared that even some of her random thoughts were mortal sins and that she would be condemned for them.Though the leader of the synagogue was most likely not struggling with “oversensitivity” in the same way as Saint Thérèse, he was acting with an extreme scrupulosity which led him to be harshly judgmental and condemning of our Lord for His good deed done to this crippled woman.Reflect, today, upon any tendency you may have with these heavy burdens. Do you worry in an irrational way about sin? Do you ever find yourself obsessing over decisions, worrying that you may make the wrong one? Do you think about yourself far more than you think about God and others? If so, you may also be carrying a similar heavy burden that our Lord wants to lift. Serving God and His holy will must become the deepest joy of our lives, not a heavy burden. If you find your Christian walk more of a burden, then turn your eyes away from yourself and look to the merciful God. Run to Him with the utmost confidence of a child, as Saint Thérèse eventually did, and allow yourself to love Him more authentically, freed of scrupulous and self-imposed burdens. My merciful Lord, You desire to free me from all that burdens me. You desire that I turn to You with the confidence of a child. Please do free me, dear Lord, from any way that I impose burdens upon myself by my obsessions and irrational worries. May I always understand Your infinite love for me and always walk freely and joyfully in Your ways. Jesus, I trust in You.Image: Museo Nacional de Arte, Public domain, via Wikimedia CommonsSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.
