Podcasts about call home

I remember the time that my son got in real late. And I remember because that really wasn't his usual style. And, of course, I was waiting calmly and patiently for him to get home and, you know, waiting to hear his explanation; except for the hand cuffs and the bright light that I greeted him with. Now, he had good reasons. There were car problems, and there were people who really did have to be dropped off before he was, and, oh yeah, they got lost. It all checked out, but I was still an unhappy father for one important thing that he missed. Can you guess what it is? Uh-huh, "You didn't call!" Every parent knows, and most teenagers learn that you're making a big mistake when you don't call home. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Neglecting to Call Home." I'm going to read our word for today from the Word of God from 1 Chronicles 14. David is in his unstoppable years; everything he does works, and there are secrets here to being unstoppable. Verse 10 says, "David inquired of God, 'Shall I go and attack the Philistines?' And the Lord answered him, 'Go and I will hand them over to you.'" In verse 14, it says, "David inquired of God again." And in this case he happens to be asking Him about a strategy for defeating the Philistines. You see, David checked with the Lord apparently on everything...well, almost everything. One day he did a great thing. He had the ark of the covenant moved from the suburbs so to speak, the outer country, to where it would be in the center of things. But it was only to be handled by the Levites. That's the law of God! And they didn't do it God's way and a man died while transporting that ark. Now we read in chapter 15 of 1 Chronicles, "You are the heads of the Levitical families. You and your fellow Levites are to consecrate yourselves and bring up the ark of the Lord to the place I have prepared for it. It was because you, the Levites, did not bring it up the first time that the Lord our God broke out in anger against us." Now listen to this. "We did not inquire of Him about how to do it in the prescribed way." In other words, David is saying, "We messed up because we didn't call our Father; we didn't check to see how God wanted this done." Our tendency is to pray about something, and then check in, same time, same station maybe tomorrow. Or pray when we're losing the battle. Can we learn a lesson from David when he was in his unstoppable years? Pray first about which battles to fight. Not every battle is one God wants you to be involved in. Get His orders before you get involved. Then ask the Lord about how to fight the battle. Pray until you start to feel His plan for that battle unfolding. The ark incident teaches us that you can do a good thing in a way God doesn't want it done. Good thing, wrong way, and it won't work. Too often, this guy's got to confess to you, I will pray about something in the morning, and then I'll put myself on cruise control and just kind of go ahead and not check in again until I hit a crisis. I'm a victim of my own momentum. Our Father expects us to check with Him frequently, regularly, all through the day, before a call, before an email, before a text, before a signature, before we drive, before we park, before we make a decision about where we're going to go next. "What do You want me to do, Lord?" "How do You want me to do it?" You can be unstoppable if you move through all your day's choices in consultation with your Heavenly Father. Like earthly kids, we tend to get in a mess, and then come into the Father's presence with our head hanging. And our Father says, "You didn't call."

There are more than 370 children currently living in emergency accommodation across Limerick and Clare.And with the summer holidays underway, Focus Ireland is warning that homelessness can mean children missing out on some of the basic experiences of childhood, from having friends over to play, to summer camps, and simply having somewhere stable to call home.Leading psychologist Dr Sharon Lambert and Patrice Kelleher from Focus Ireland's Childers Road Family Initiative in Limerick join the show.Image via Getty.

A sweeping history of humanity's most fundamental creation―the home―and its effects on the land, cities, and people themselves. Americans spend, on average, 90 percent of their lives indoors, with two-thirds of that time spent in their homes. Globally, the construction and maintenance of residential buildings account for a staggering portion of carbon emissions. In this timely and fascinating work, architect and urban-planning scholar Stefan Al deftly weaves together archaeology, engineering, social history, and environmental science to explain how our homes have developed through the ages and in turn shaped civilization and the planet itself. From tiny pit-houses in the Levant and Mesoamerica thousands of years ago to soaring skyscrapers in Dubai, New York, and Shanghai today, Dwelling on Earth: The Past and Future of the Places We Call Home (W. W. Norton & Company, 2026) takes readers on a swift and absorbing tour of the evolution of human habitation. Whisking readers from ancient Pompeii to contemporary Hong Kong, industrial-age Liverpool to postwar Levittown, Al shows how our choices in housing have both reflected and affected ideas about gender roles, privacy, and comfort. Discover how seemingly mundane elements―like door-knockers and corridors―have altered everyday interactions, and how material choices have remade the planet's surface. He also confronts the darker side of domesticity, exposing the unintended consequences of our architectural choices across millennia, including smoke-filled Neolithic dwellings, deadly fires in crowded Roman apartment buildings, and worsening social isolation in car-dependent suburbs. Finally, he examines the myths and reality of future housing, including 3D-printed homes and space architecture built by robots. Drawing from personal experiences across global cities and professional insights, Al illuminates how our choices in housing continue to influence everything from social relationships to climate change, ultimately arguing that understanding this rich history is crucial for building a more sustainable future. With billions more people needing housing in the coming decades, Dwelling on Earth reveals how we might transform humanity's defining challenge into our greatest opportunity.

Always willing to colab, Jim from Home Brew Mart partnered with a local muscian for this IPA named after his self released album "Tombstone & Travel Plans." We get the inside of how this beer comes together and what hop has been the glue that's held all the hoppy beers we've enjoyed all week together.

Today, host John Norlin shares a strategy called the Kid in the Middle, a simple, low-burden approach to recognizing the students who rarely get attention in either direction. By calling home to compliment a family member on a positive trait their child brings to the classroom, educators can make an impact that lasts far longer than they might expect. He also explains why this matters most for the students who never cause problems and never stand out. For many of their families, a positive call from school may be the first one they have ever received across an entire K-12 experience. In this conversation, John offers important reminders for educators and leaders: The students most likely to be overlooked are not the ones causing problems or earning top grades. They are the ones quietly in the middle, and they deserve intentional recognition too. A phone call home that compliments a student's character costs less than five minutes and can stay with a family for years. Families of middle-of-the-road students often go an entire school career without receiving a single positive call from school. That is worth changing.

Auckland Theatre Company's latest production of William Shakespeare's Macbeth is set to debut this Tuesday at Auckland's ASB Waterfront Theatre, with Wiseman taking on the show's coveted female role. She says the complexity of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth's relationship will come right to the surface in this version, and she promises this arc will be 'extreme'.

We want unlimited happiness. In this world we get advertisements for "some" happiness, and it causes us more distress. Then, we try to take some medicine; it comes with a long list of warnings that this could really mess you up. What we want is the real thing, and it's our birthright. We were born from nectar, we belong in nectar, and it's available. We can take it at any time. So, this Ratha-yātrā festival—it means we're all marching back to the spiritual world, and we're not going to take it anymore, right? We're just not going to take it anymore. This material world, we're done; finished. We're on our way back to the spiritual world. That's the Festival of the Chariots. It's a very feeling festival. We're grabbing those ropes, saying, "Kṛṣṇa, we're with You. We want You to be with us always." We're pulling them into our hearts, saying, "We won't settle for any substitutes." The whole material world is one big substitute, but we want to go back home, back to Godhead, and we want to bring everybody in New York with us. How many people are here in New York? Can you name them all? Who they are? Everybody needs individualized attention in this world; otherwise, they die of loneliness in their heart—failure to thrive. They can't make it in this world without some love. So, we have to give it to them, because we have it. We've approached the ocean of love, and we can take it out in buckets, or even one drop will do, but we have to sprinkle it everywhere. We have to go into the boroughs and then we have to go to the Bronx. We have got to go to the Bronx and sprinkle everybody with this name of Kṛṣṇa, which is the kind of nectar from the spiritual world that awakens people to this pure love. Unfortunately, we ran out of time. If you want to continue, then just join the Hare Kṛṣṇa movement—there's nobody who can stop us. We're free souls, every one of us. It's not time; it's taste. And if we get a taste, then we'll spend more and more time entering into this realm that Lord Caitanya invited us to come into—of chanting, hearing, and deepening our connection to Kṛṣṇa in the spiritual world. That's the purpose of life; there's no other. Everything else is—well, I don't want to sound fanatical, but it's kind of a waste of time. We do have to maintain ourselves and be balanced and healthy, eat good food, drink water, try to find some air somewhere on the planet to breathe, and keep the transcendental vibration going.

Send us Fan MailAG INNOVATION SERIES | Innovation Beyond Technology with Josie CopleyIn the final episode of the Ag Innovation Series, Sam Fryer sits down with Josie Copley from Copley Pastoral to explore what innovation really means in modern agriculture.As part of a fifth-generation family beef business and Brahman seedstock operation, Josie brings a unique perspective to the innovation conversation. Working across livestock production, marketing and communications, she sees firsthand how businesses can evolve through genetics, data, better decision making and a commitment to continuous improvement.Throughout the conversation, Josie challenges the idea that innovation is always about new technology. Instead, she shares why some of the most powerful innovations come from doing the small things consistently well over time.In this episode we discuss:• Innovation beyond technology• Genetics and data-driven breeding decisions• The role of BreedPlan and objective measurement• Building a profitable and sustainable family business• Why adoption is often harder than innovation• The importance of curiosity and continuous learning• Field days and knowledge sharing across the industry• Collaboration between producers, researchers and industry• The role of the next generation in shaping Australian agricultureWe also dive into Copley Pastoral's Curious Minds, Profitable Herds Field Day and discuss how events like these help bridge the gap between research, innovation and practical on-farm adoption.One of the biggest takeaways from this conversation is that innovation doesn't always need to be revolutionary. Sometimes the greatest gains come from making small improvements, staying curious and consistently moving forward.This episode wraps up the Ag Innovation Series, a collaboration between A Place to Call Home and the Pandaemonium Paper exploring the people, ideas and technologies shaping the future of Australian agriculture.PandaemoniumWebsite: https://www.pandaemonium.orgInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/p.andaemonium/If you enjoyed this episodePlease share it with a friend or leave a review — it really helps these stories reach more people across rural Australia and the agriculture industry.Stay connected with A Place to Call Home:

How often have you heard masculinity described as “toxic”, “fragile”, or “in a crisis”? JJ Bola - writer, former youth worker, and UNHCR Ambassador - tries to go deeper in understanding how society is failing boys and men. In this episode, JJ Bola describes masculinity as a performance that we require boys to learn; along the way stifling their individuality and emotional health. Different societies have different myths about masculinity, and JJ Bola is able to draw on his experiences as a Congolese man growing up in London to show how diverse these ideas are. If we could discard the performance of masculinity and allow boys to grow up free and to be who they are, we are likely to see the benefits in love and sex, politics, competitive sports and mental health.  JJ Bola was born in Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. He grew up in London and has written two novels - No Place to Call Home and The Selfless Act Of Breathing - as well as three collections of poetry - Elevate, Daughter of the Sun and WORD -  and a non-fiction book about masculinity and the patriarchy, Mask Off: Masculinity Redefined.

Episode 170 – Prog Algorithm Mixed Bag, 2025 Algorithm Adventures: Discovering Hidden Gems in Progressive Rock **Discovering Progressive Rock Through Unexpected Pathways** What happens when a streaming algorithm becomes your guide through the world of progressive rock? On this episode, Joe shares his serendipitous journey that began with Haunt the Woods and spiraled into an exploration of both new and familiar prog acts (a delightful rabbit hole indeed). The conversation reveals a common listener dilemma: when facing a band's catalog of multiple albums, which one should you choose first? One strategy discussed is starting with the second-most recent album, providing a middle ground in the band's sonic evolution. The hosts dive into recent discoveries including *Opaque* from 2020 and *Ubiquity* from 2023, while exploring artists featuring Nick Beggs and discussing the **magically twisted and cynical** music of Echolyn, a band from their hometown of Lansdale, Pennsylvania that they overlooked in their youth. From Fernando Perdomo's ambitious 2025 project of releasing one instrumental prog album monthly to Advent Horizons' powerful *Cell to Call Home*, the episode celebrates diverse progressive rock discoveries. Ken Gregory and Paul Zotter share recommendations spanning Life Signs, Pattern Seeking Animals, and more. Tune in to explore these hidden gems and reconnect with prog artists you may have missed.

Bonus Episode #67 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan reviews Replaced, the long-awaited debut from Sad Cat Studios, finally out on April 14, 2026 on PC and Xbox Series X/S and available day one on Xbox Game Pass. Set in a dystopian alternate-1980s America where nuclear catastrophe handed total control to a shadowy organization called the Phoenix Corporation, the game puts you in the role of REACH, an artificial intelligence accidentally trapped inside a human body, navigating a decaying world of corruption, organ harvesting, and hard questions about identity and autonomy. This Musical Review breaks down the full experience across eight segments, covering the game's stunning hand-crafted pixel art, its slow-burn narrative built around the Disposals and the secrets of Phoenix City, the free-flow combat system and how it evolves across ten chapters, and the friction that comes with some of the platforming and control responsiveness. The episode also dedicates a full segment to the synth-driven original score by Igor Gritsay and aygad, featuring vocal performances by Marina Thorik, and how the music works alongside the world to create something atmospheric and genuinely affecting. Email the show at bgmaniapodcast@gmail.com with requests for upcoming episodes, questions, feedback, comments, concerns, or any other thoughts you'd like to share!

The episode highlights research linking parental engagement to better progress and stresses that consistent, warm communication can build trust between school and home.

When maps come up short and the path ahead is uncertain, how do we find our way? Visionary climate leader Katharine K. Wilkinson offers a compassionate and empowering guide to navigating from ache to action, doubt to possibility. Through transformational programs and books, including the national bestseller All We Can Save, Wilkinson has inspired hundreds of thousands of climate journeys. In Climate Wayfinding: Healing Ourselves and the Planet We Call Home (Amber Lotus, 2026) she shares a proven process for looking inward with care, outward with curiosity, and forward with courage. Ultimately, readers chart a course toward playing their unique part in our collective healing.

A book to sit with and savor, Climate Wayfinding also invites engagement with journaling prompts, practical exercises, and guides for conversation. Whether steeped in climate or newly curious, readers will discover something grounding and generative in these pages. The terrain ahead is calling—and we have everything we need to find our way.

Wilkinson offers a compassionate and empowering guide to navigating from ache to action, doubt to possibility. Through transformational programs and books, including the national bestseller All We Can Save, Wilkinson has inspired hundreds of thousands of climate journeys. In Climate Wayfinding: Healing Ourselves and the Planet We Call Home (Amber Lotus, 2026) she shares a proven process for looking inward with care, outward with curiosity, and forward with courage. Ultimately, readers chart a course toward playing their unique part in our collective healing. With her singular blend of warmth and rigor, Wilkinson lights the way through stirring personal essays, interwoven with the wisdom of other climate leaders and the beauty of poetry, art, and song. A book to sit with and savor, Climate Wayfinding also invites engagement with journaling prompts, practical exercises, and guides for conversation. Whether steeped in climate or newly curious, readers will discover something grounding and generative in these pages. The terrain ahead is calling—and we have everything we need to find our way. (Source: here) Dr. Katharine Wilkinson is a climate leader named by Time magazine as one of 15 “women who will save the world.” Her publications include the New York Times bestseller, Project Drawdown, and the co-edited, All We Can Save, which is an anthology of writings on climate change named among the 10 best science books of 2020 by Smithsonian magazine. Dr. Wilkinson is the co-founder and executive director of the All We Can Save Project and Co-host of the podcast, A Matter of Degrees. In this interview with Dr. Patricia Houser, Dr. Katharine Wilkinson discusses the unique organization of the Climate Wayfinding book--with its strategic juxtaposition of inspirational essays, poetry, music and reflective passages. This “quilt of components” says Wilkinson, was honed in a series of workshops designed to help people find meaningful and impactful roles as climate leaders/workers. Selected subtopics and excerpts of the conversation can be found at the following timestamps: 0:04 mins. The podcast opens with the author explaining that people today are confronting a world where the earth's features no longer resembles what is on a map—we are literally “map-less.” [Background instrumental music: folk_acoustic from Pixabay] 3:04 “Most books talk to you. These pages hope to walk with you.” 4:18 The Author explains, when she is asked “What can I do?” about the climate crisis, she feels that the answer is really, “something of a Russian doll:” Wilkinson: We ask, what can I do? But sitting within that question are often other bigger wonderings about what it means to be alive at this time, what it means to contribute, where we belong, how are we going to cope? 5:12 Wilkinson: This is an unusual book in the sense that it grew out of this experiential learning and leadership development program and then found its way onto the page. 6:41 Explaining who the book is written for and who is it designed to help 10:41 How the reflective passages and invitations to meditate in this book help people prepare for climate work 15:08 The power of community building as part of a preparation for climate work, has its parallels in history. 17:15 The challenge of better engaging the 89% of people around the world who would like to see more climate action. 24:40 The website climatewayfinding.earth offers audio versions of specially designed meditations printed in the book. 26:45 Features of the website linked to the book. 30:00 Wilkinson: What I hope is that readers, that reading groups, that people who come through the program, they feel at the end of it more equipped for the ongoing work of orientation and navigation and finding our next steps.

First up, did you know? Dean is a secret science nerd, and he’s super excited about the Artemis II moon shot! Is Mars next on the list? This morning’s first caller has a ceiling that’s beginning to crack in his split-level house, so he’s wondering when the right time is to call in the experts — and he’s hoping it wasn’t yesterday. Our next caller is from Thousand Oaks and has had two plumbing leaks in 31 years, so she’s wondering if it’s time to replumb the whole home. Got a paver project like our next listener? He’s using an angle grinder to cut the stone and is wondering about the best way to go about doing this. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Family, a few days ago we had recorded an episode discussing that we had decided to not recap this season of “The Bachelorette”…but before releasing that episode, the news broke that “The Bachelorette” is cancelled. At the top of today's episode, we discuss the cancellation, our thoughts, production, and what's to come (we recorded this segment late last night). Then after that, we hop back to our previously recorded episode and chat about what we are planning on covering, listen to some great “Call Home” voicemails, and more!DV Resources:***https://www.thehotline.org/ ***https://ncadv.org/ THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS: ***OLLIE: Ollie.

There's something deep within us that craves a haven and a place to belong. We have been created to dwell with God. Although that desire, to reside and abide with Him a beautiful secure place of rest, can never fully be met on this side of heaven, we can receive a sacred foretaste through rooting ourselves to our homes in the here and now. But sometimes the kind of home we long for feels out of reach. That can be discouraging. Today we are going to think through godly desires, the seed of dreams planted within us, and the tension living in the present moment while working towards the future with Christie Purifoy.Christie Purifoy is a writer and gardener who loves to grow flowers and community. Most of all, she is a placemaker, and the place she is making with her family is a red brick Victorian farmhouse in Pennsylvania called Maplehurst.She's the author of numerous books –all of which will encourage and delight you –and her latest book, A House to Call Home, might just be a new favorite.There's no place like Home! There's no place like Home!To thee, I'll return overburdened with care,The heart's dearest solace will smile on me there.No more from that cottage again will I roam,Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home.–Home, Sweet Home, John Howard Payne (1791-1852)

Homeless encampments are a part of the landscape in many U.S. cities. In Oakland, California, one of the longest-standing and most well-known encampments was at Union Point Park. It was right by the water, and it had a beautiful view of the sunset. But it was also a concern for some local residents, who worried about crime and safety. When the city tried to clear Union Point Park, the people who lived there united and fought back. Reporter Shaina Shealy followed this community for about a year, as they advocated for their own small plot of land in the city where they could live by their own rules, on their own terms. Her 5-part series from KQED's Snap Studios is called A Tiny Plot.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
