Psalm 94,O Lord, God of vengeance, O God of vengeance, shine forth!2 Rise up, O judge of the earth; repay to the proud what they deserve!3 O Lord, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked exult?4 They pour out their arrogant words; all the evildoers boast.5 They crush your people, O Lord, and afflict your heritage.6 They kill the widow and the sojourner, and murder the fatherless;7 and they say, “The Lord does not see; the God of Jacob does not perceive.”8 Understand, O dullest of the people! Fools, when will you be wise?9 He who planted the ear, does he not hear?He who formed the eye, does he not see?10 He who disciplines the nations, does he not rebuke?He who teaches man knowledge—11 the Lord—knows the thoughts of man, that they are but a breath.12 Blessed is the man whom you discipline, O Lord, and whom you teach out of your law,13 to give him rest from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked.14 For the Lord will not forsake his people; he will not abandon his heritage;15 for justice will return to the righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow it.16 Who rises up for me against the wicked? Who stands up for me against evildoers?17 If the Lord had not been my help, my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence.18 When I thought, “My foot slips,” your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up.19 When the cares of my heart are many, your consolations cheer my soul.20 Can wicked rulers be allied with you, those who frame injustice by statute?21 They band together against the life of the righteous and condemn the innocent to death.22 But the Lord has become my stronghold, and my God the rock of my refuge.23 He will bring back on them their iniquity and wipe them out for their wickedness; the Lord our God will wipe them out. Growing up, when my family took road trips, my brothers and I would tell time in “ninja turtle shows.” It was our way of saying, “Are we there yet?” Inspired by our favorite tv-show, featuring four adolescent, pizza-eating, crime-fighting reptiles in a half shell. “Mom, how many turtle shows until we get there?” “How many turtle shows until we eat?” “Dad, I have to go the bathroom.” “Okay, we'll stop in two ninja turtle shows.” “No, Dad, I need to go in now ninja turtle shows.” Mind you, we weren't actually watching ninja turtle shows in the car (that needs to be clarified today). There were no screens on those 6, 7, 12-hour drives.How many ninja turtle shows? This was our 8-year-old, 9-year-old way of saying, How long? We're tired of this car. We're tired of this uncomfortable seat belt. We're tired of Dad's banjo music. We just want to get to the cabin, or the ocean, or the mountains, or wherever we were going. How long, Mom? How long, Dad?I thought of those car-rides as I was studying Psalm 94 over the last month. The psalm reminded me how much of life, even the Christian life — especially the Christian life — is waiting. Some of you are waiting right now, and you've been waiting a long time. And you're tired. You're tired of the doctor's visits. You're tired of the hard conversations. You're tired of the applications and interviews. You're tired of the demoralizing headlines and all the evil you see in the world. You're tired of trying to bring up Jesus again, because you know how angry it makes them — but you love them, so you keep bringing him up. You're tired. . . . How long, O Lord?That's the kind of prayer this is. This particular psalm is wrestling with wickedness and waiting for God to bring justice for his people, but much of it really does apply to whatever pain or uncertainty you're carrying right now. Their ‘How Long' SongSo this is a how long song, and there are dozen or so of these in the psalms. They prayed this kind of prayer a lot. They certainly weren't afraid to pray and ask how long, to plead with him to put an end to their pain and confusion and suffering. Here's Psalm 13:How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?2 How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?Notice, they weren't questioning if, but when. They knew he was going to do what he said he would do — and they told him they knew that — but they weren't afraid to ask when. It was an honest, faith-filled way to express their anguish to God. Lord, when will you make this right? How long? We know the day's coming, we know you'll come through for us, we know you'll put an end to their evil, but why can't it be today? Can't it be today, God? Don't be afraid to pray how long prayers. God teaches us to pray those kinds of prayers, again thirteen times in the psalms.So what were the people waiting for here in Psalm 94? Let's start in verse 3:O Lord, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked exult?They pour out their arrogant words; all the evildoers boast.They crush your people, O Lord, and afflict your heritage.They kill the widow and the sojourner, and murder the fatherless;and they say, “The Lord does not see; the God of Jacob does not perceive.”This psalm, like many psalms, is wrestling over evil in the world. These are really wicked people. He says they're attacking God's people. They're killing widows and sojourners and orphans. And they're not doing it in secret. “They pour out their arrogant words;” verse 4, “all the evildoers boast.” They brag about killing kids. Can you imagine? It's horrifying that we don't have to imagine. . . . Do we? No, their wicked tribe is alive and well today in America, where we kill nearly a million children in the womb every year. And then people parade their abortions, right here in our city. How long, O Lord! Put an end to this wickedness. Save these precious boys and girls. It's wicked today, and it was wicked then, and God's people were tired of it — tired of the killing, tired of the boasting, tired of the blaspheming. “God, how long are you going to let them talk about you like that!” Make it all stop. Put it to an end. Show them who you are. Show them that you love us.This psalm is their how long song, and the song addresses three audiences with three different messages, and those are my three main points:God, take vengeance.Believers, take heart.Sinners, take heed.1. God, Take VengeanceThis is where the psalm begins, verses 1–2:O Lord, God of vengeance, O God of vengeance, shine forth!Rise up, O judge of the earth; repay to the proud what they deserve!God of vengeance. The God who confronts and punishes those who wrong him, everyone who wrongs him. The God of Psalm 94 will wage terrifying war on every unforgiven sin against him. He will have his vengeance. Is that how you think about God? Is that how you pray?We don't pray like this much, do we? You don't hear this in our prayers on Sundays, at least not often. Maybe that's because the church isn't a nation like Israel, and so we don't have the same kinds of national enemies Israel did. We're not dealing with Egypt and Assyria and Babylon. We also live in the New Covenant age, and so we might think that God was a God of vengeance and wrath, but now he's a God of compassion and mercy. Not so. The God of Psalm 94 is the God of wondrous compassion and mercy (we'll see that in a moment). And the God of John 3:16 and Romans 8:28 is every bit the God of consuming wrath and certain vengeance.The same letter that gave us the promises of Romans 8 says, just four chapters later, Romans 12:19:“Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, ‘Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.'”Vengeance is still his, and he will repay.We should shudder to think about what's coming to those who will not repent and believe in Christ. Their destruction is coming, and it will be worse than any of us can imagine.God is still a God of vengeance, and the people of God still have enemies. Some estimate that tens of thousands of Christians are killed every year because of their faith, in places like China, India, Ethiopia, Iraq, and North Korea. And the murderers are still boasting. They're still preaching the same lies, “The Lord does not see; the God of Jacob does not perceive.” No one's going to do anything to us. It's evil and God will have his vengeance. And one way that vengeance will come is through our prayers for justice. “O Lord, God of vengeance, O God of vengeance, shine forth!” You show your awesome glory in mercy, and you show it in wrath. Shine forth! Show them who you are. Show them that you see and that you love us.2. Believers, Take HeartSo, first, they pray, “God, take vengeance.” The psalmist also turns, though, and addresses the afflicted, in verses 12–23. He speaks to those who are waiting and suffering and praying, and he strengthens them to wait well with four key messages. 1. Your waiting will end.We'll start where the psalm ends, verse 23:[God] will bring back on them their iniquity and wipe them out for their wickedness; the LORD our God will wipe them out.It often seemed like evil was unchecked and might go unaddressed, so God's people wrote songs to remind themselves that every evil will be fully punished. As we just saw in the last point, God will have his vengeance, and his vengeance is a refuge for all who belong to him. We can trust that every sin against us will be paid for in full.And not just our waiting for justice and vindication, but all our waiting will end one day and soon. “‘He will wipe away every tear from their eyes,'” Revelation 21, “‘and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.' And he who was seated on the throne said, ‘Behold, I am making all things new.'” No more tears or death or pain waiting, and all things new. Your waiting, whatever you're waiting for in this life, will end.2. Your waiting is not condemnation.There are twin confusions when the wicked keep hurting God's people. The first is why the wicked seem to get away with so much and for so long. The second is why God allows his people to suffer like we often do. God speaks to both in this psalm. God will judge the wicked — all the wicked for all that they have done — and God is not judging you. Verses 12–13:Blessed is the man whom you discipline, O Lord, and whom you teach out of your law,to give him rest from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked.What's he saying? He's saying that the painful waiting that the faithful are enduring isn't condemnation. It's discipline. It's not a pain that leads to death, but a pain that leads to life, and holiness, and joy. “Blessed” — happy — “is the man whom you discipline, O Lord.” Our waiting is a refining and a training for righteousness. It's the love of a Father, not the sword of a Judge.And even while we wait and endure his fatherly discipline, he comforts us by speaking to us.“Blessed is the man whom you discipline, O Lord, and whom you teach out of your law, to give him rest from days of trouble, until a pit is dug for the wicked.”While they are being afflicted, for as long as they are afflicted, he's teaching them his law — he's revealing himself to them through his word — in order to comfort and strengthen them. He'll have his vengeance soon — justice will be done — and until then, he's going to keep speaking rest into your waiting. And that brings us to the third message.3. Your waiting isn't too heavy for him.Your waiting might feel too heavy for you. And that might make you think that it's too heavy for God. You can't imagine carrying what you carry another year, another month, maybe another day. And so you start to wonder if there's any way to carry it. God can carry it. This is verses 16–18:Who rises up for me against the wicked? Who stands up for me against evildoers?If the LORD had not been my help, my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence.When I thought, “My foot slips,” your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up.When I thought, “My foot slips” — I can't carry this anymore. I can't take even one more step — The Lord held me up.I love these verses because even though things are going badly for God's people right now, even though the wicked have the upper hand for now and they're causing terrible pain and loss, the psalmist can still see and feel the kindness of God.“If the Lord had not been my help, my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence.”If the Lord had not been my help, it could have been so much worse than this. This suffering and waiting is awful — How long, O Lord! — but I'd rather bear this with your help than bear anything apart from you. You've helped me. You haven't abandoned me. We're going to see in a minute how persistent sin hardens and blinds a person and keeps them from seeing God. We see the opposite here, though. Because the psalmist's heart is soft and his eyes are clear, he's able to see the grace and help of God even in terrible suffering, even in the darkness of the valley. He can still see. What would this have been like if the Lord had not been my help? But he was my help. He is your help, no matter how dark it gets. Your waiting isn't too heavy for him.4. You can have joy while you wait.This is all under point #2. Point #1: God, take vengeance. Point #2: Believers, take heart. And we hear four precious reasons to take heart:Your waiting will end.Your waiting is not judgment.Your waiting isn't too heavy for him.And now, fourth, you can have joy while you wait.This last one comes from verse 19 (this verse was the reason I asked to preach this psalm). I've returned here again and again and leaned on this verse to remind myself how good God can be, even in trials. Verse 19:When the cares of my heart are many, your consolations cheer my soul.Even though everything around me's going wrong right now, you cheer my soul. Your consolations comfort and satisfy me. God can cheer any soul, even yours, even now. You might have to wait for justice, or for healing, or for reconciliation — and you might have to wait a long time — but you don't have to wait for joy. Not with this God. Not if God himself is your joy. Even when the cares of your heart are many, he can cheer your soul. Your cares will never exhaust his consolations. Your pain will never surpass the joy of his presence.The apostle Paul understood Psalm 94:19. He says, “In all our affliction, I am overflowing with joy” (2 Corinthians 7:4). Why? He tells us in Philippians: “I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord . . .” (Philippians 3:8). I have Christ — my life is his, and he lives in me, and he's more than I could ever have or enjoy without him. So when the cares of my heart are many, they're not too many. No, even then, my God is able to cheer my soul. I promise you, he's able to cheer your soul.3. Sinners, Take HeedWhen we're waiting for God to make what's wrong right and put an end to all the evil around us, we say to God: “God, take vengeance.” We say to one another, “Believer, take heart.” And, last point, we say to the enemies of God: “Sinner, take heed.”We get a glimpse here into the heart and logic of evil, verse 6:[The wicked] kill the widow and the sojourner, and murder the fatherless;and they say, “The Lord does not see; the God of Jacob does not perceive.”Satan whispered to Adam and Eve, “Did God really say?” Here, he whispers, “Does God really see?” God doesn't see what you're doing. He's not able to watch everyone all the time, and if he is, he couldn't possibly have the time or interest to deal with it. No, God doesn't see your sinning.And they don't just believe what he's saying, they don't just think this is the back of their minds while they keep sinning. No, by verse 7, they're preaching Satan's sermon. They say, “The Lord does not see; the God of Jacob does not perceive.” God's not going to do anything about this. Do you really believe that? No, God's not going to do anything about this, because there is no God. That's what they're really preaching. And that's what indulging in sin — any sin — does to us. This is the hardening and blinding I mentioned earlier. Sin takes us from believing “God doesn't see” to preaching “God doesn't see” to eventually rejecting and ignoring God altogether. Sin hardens us until we can't see or hear or feel anymore. We walk and eat and sin in a world filled with the glory of God, and yet we can't see him or hear him anywhere. It's like walking along the Pacific Ocean, and looking around wondering where the water is. Sin does horrible things to people, and this is the worst thing it does to us. It slowly poisons our eyes until the unspeakably glorious God seems small, weak, boring, imaginary. Giving into sin will destroy your soul by slowly blotting out heaven. Is some sin doing that to you? You might say that God is real, and that he sees everything, and that he'll judge every wrong one day, but if you secretly persist in that sin, you're really saying you don't believe any of that. And if you keep returning to that swamp of lust or bitterness or greed or self-pity, you'll see less and less and less until you can't see anything at all. You won't be able to see the ocean, even if you're standing in it.Hear the warning, verses 8–11:Understand, O dullest of the people! Fools, when will you be wise?He who planted the ear, does he not hear? He who formed the eye, does he not see?He who disciplines the nations, does he not rebuke? He who teaches man knowledge — the Lord — knows the thoughts of man, that they are but a breath.He made the eye. Do you think he can't see what you're doing? He made the ear. Do you think he can't hear what you're saying? He doesn‘t just know what you're doing and saying; he knows what you're thinking — “he knows the thoughts of man.” You're not fooling him at all, not even for a second. You're fooling yourself, and you'll destroy yourself if you stay on that path. God sees all, and he will have his vengeance. But even now, even after you've given into that sin again and again, the God of vengeance, the God of perfect justice, is holding out a hand of mercy to you, a blood-stained hand of mercy. And this brings us to the Table.God of Vengeance and MercyWe meet the God of vengeance and mercy in the face of Jesus Christ, who comes to execute judgment against all who refused to repent and to save all those who repent of their sins and treasure and follow him. Listen to 2 Thessalonians 1:6–9:God considers it just to repay with affliction those who afflict you, and to grant relief to you who are afflicted as well as to us, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire, inflicting vengeance — terrible vengeance — on those who do not know God and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might when he comes on that day to be glorified in his saints — stunning mercy — and to be marveled at among all who have believed.He is the God of vengeance. Every wrong will be made right — every wrong committed against you and every wrong committed by you. And those wrongs will be made right one of two ways. Either God will inflict his vengeance on you, because you refused his mercy. Or he will have poured out his vengeance on his Son, at the cross, because you humbled yourself, believed in his Son, and were saved. Those who are forgiven through faith will never taste the wrath of God, not one ounce and not for one second.
In this sermon, Pastor Marshall Segal expounds upon Psalm 94 which is a ‘how long' song. This psalm is about wrestling with wickedness and waiting for God's justice, and much of it applies to any pain or uncertainty that you're carrying right now. In an honest and faith-filled way of expressing their anguish to God, the people asked “How long, O Lord?”

Theme: No one can serve 2 masters. Intro – Serving Self & Money (6:4-6, 12; also 8:4-6) Amos 6:4-6 (NASB) 4 Those who lie on beds of ivory,And lounge around on their couches,And eat lambs from the flock,And calves from the midst of the fattened cattle,5 Who improvise to the sound of the harp,And like David have composed songs for themselves,6 Who drink wine from sacred bowlsWhile they anoint themselves with the finest of oils—Yet they have not grieved over the collapse of Joseph. Amos 6:12 (NASB) 12 Do horses run on rocks?Or does one plow them with oxen?Yet you have turned justice into poison,And the fruit of righteousness into wormwood. Amos 8:4-6 (NASB) 4 Hear this, you who trample the needy, to put an end to the humble of the land, 5 saying, “When will the new moon be over, So that we may sell grain;And the Sabbath, so that we may open the wheat market,To make the ephah smaller and the shekel bigger,And to cheat with dishonest scales,6 So as to buy the helpless for money,And the needy for a pair of sandals,And that we may sell the refuse of the wheat?” God's Attributes in Judgment: 1. Mercy (7:1-3) Amos 7:1-3 (NASB) 1 This is what the Lord God showed me, and behold, He was forming a swarm of locusts when the spring crop began to sprout. And behold, the spring crop was after the king's mowing. 2 And it came about, when it had finished eating the vegetation of the land, that I said, “Lord God, please pardon! How can Jacob stand? For he is small.”3 The Lord relented of this. “It shall not be,” said the Lord. 2. Patience (7:4-6) Amos 7:4-6 (NASB) 4 So the Lord God showed me, and behold, the Lord God was calling to contend with them by fire, and it consumed the great deep and began to consume the farmland. 5 Then I said, “Lord God, please stop! How can Jacob stand? For he is small.”6 The Lord relented of this. “This too shall not be,” said the Lord God. 3. Righteousness (7:7-17) Amos 7:7-17 (NASB) 7 So He showed me, and behold, the Lord was standing by a vertical wall with a plumb line in His hand. 8 And the Lord said to me, “What do you see, Amos?” And I said, “A plumb line.” Then the Lord said, “Behold I am about to put a plumb line In the midst of My people Israel. I will not spare them any longer. 9 The high places of Isaac will become deserted, and the sanctuaries of Israel will be in ruins.Then I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.” 10 Then Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, sent word to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel; the land is unable to endure all his words. 11 For this is what Amos says: ‘Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will certainly go from its land into exile.'” 12 Then Amaziah said to Amos, “Go, you seer, flee to the land of Judah; and eat bread there and do your prophesying there! 13 But do not prophesy at Bethel any longer, for it is a sanctuary of the king and a royal residence.” 14 Then Amos replied to Amaziah, “I am not a prophet, nor am I the son of a prophet; for I am a herdsman and a grower of sycamore figs. 15 But the Lord took me from following the flock, and the Lord said to me, ‘Go prophesy to My people Israel.' 16 So now hear the word of the Lord: you are saying, ‘You shall not prophesy against Israel nor shall you prophesy against the house of Isaac.' 17 Therefore, this is what the Lord says: ‘Your wife will become a prostitute in the city, your sons and your daughters will fall by the sword, your land will be parceled up by a measuring line, and you yourself will die upon unclean soil. Furthermore Israel will certainly go from its land into exile.'” 4. Justice (8:1-14) Amos 8 (NASB) 8 This is what the Lord God showed me, and behold, there was a basket of summer fruit. 2 And He said, “What do you see, Amos?” And I said, “A basket of summer fruit.” Then the Lord said to me, “The end has come for My people Israel. I will not spare them any longer. 3 The songs of the palace will turn to wailing on that...
Amos 9 (NASB) 9 I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and He said, “Strike the pillar capitals so that the thresholds will shake,And break them on the heads of them all!Then I will put to death the rest of them with the sword;They will not have a fugitive who will flee,Nor a survivor who will escape. 2 Though they dig into Sheol,From there My hand will take them;And though they ascend to heaven,From there I will bring them down. 3 And though they hide on the summit of Carmel,I will track them down and take them from there;And though they hide themselves from My sight on the bottom of the sea,I will command the serpent from there, and it will bite them. 4 And though they go into captivity before their enemies,From there I will command the sword and it will kill them,And I will set My eyes against them for harm and not for good.” 5 The Lord God of armies,The One who touches the land so that it quakes,And all those who live in it mourn,And all of it rises up like the NileAnd subsides like the Nile of Egypt; 6 The One who builds His upper chambers in the heavensAnd has founded His vaulted dome over the earth,He who calls for the waters of the seaAnd pours them out on the face of the earth,The Lord is His name. 7 “Are you not as the sons of Ethiopia to Me,You sons of Israel?” declares the Lord.“Have I not brought up Israel from the land of Egypt,And the Philistines from Caphtor and the Arameans from Kir? 8 Behold, the eyes of the Lord God are on the sinful kingdom,And I will eliminate it from the face of the earth;Nevertheless, I will not totally eliminate the house of Jacob,”Declares the Lord. 9 “For behold, I am commanding,And I will shake the house of Israel among all nationsAs grain is shaken in a sieve,But not a pebble will fall to the ground. 10 All the sinners of My people will die by the sword,Those who say, ‘The catastrophe will not overtake or confront us.'The Restoration of Israel 11 “On that day I will raise up the fallen shelter of David,And wall up its gaps;I will also raise up its ruinsAnd rebuild it as in the days of old; 12 So that they may possess the remnant of EdomAnd all the nations who are called by My name,”Declares the Lord who does this. 13 “Behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord,“When the plowman will overtake the reaper,And the one who treads grapes will overtake him who sows the seed;When the mountains will drip grape juice,And all the hills will come apart. 14 I will also restore the fortunes of My people Israel,And they will rebuild the desolated cities and live in them;They will also plant vineyards and drink their wine,And make gardens and eat their fruit. 15 I will also plant them on their land,And they will not be uprooted again from their landWhich I have given them,”Says the Lord your God. Theme: Behold & Believe the Almighty God, Who will make good on His promises to punish and to bless. 1) Behold God's Dreadful Power – The Passing of a kingdom (9:1-10) 2) Believe God's Faithful Promises – The Coming of The Kingdom (9:11-15)

Do you ever feel that, unless you achieve the things you think you should be achieving, you'll cease to exist? That you'll fade away, become invisible, fail to be a fully-realised human? If so, you're in good company. For many of us, living a fulfilling life is inextricably linked with achievement, striving, productivity, winning.I'm not here to tell you not to care about achievement. But I am going to tell you that you're wrong if you think that the only life worth living is a life that prioritises achievement. And not only do I have Aristotle in my corner to back me up, but there's some fascinating recent research on what Gen Z care about that ought to be a wake-up call for anyone who thinks that if they're not achieving, they're failing.

In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to author Elissa Felder and her daughter Sonia Hoffman—both of whom have experienced the loss of a child and serve on a chevra kadisha—about what the Jewish burial society teaches us about confronting death. In this episode we discuss: How does the process of purifying a dead body work—and how is it possible to purify a dead body at all?What Kabbalistic practices are performed by chevra kadisha to bring dignity to the body and soul? How can we “normalize” discussions about grief and death? Tune in to hear a conversation about how care for the deceased is a “love story” between the Jewish People and God.Interview begins at 15:31.Elissa Felder started and actively manages Core's community of practice for women who serve on a traditional chevrah kadisha. The knowledge she acquired through her work motivated her to write From One Life to the Next Life; The Sacred Passage after Death, a memoir about the loss of her baby son. She is the head of her local chevrah kadisha and speaks widely on this topic.Sonia Hoffman is a Limmudei Kodesh teacher at Kohelet Yeshiva in Philadelphia. She is a daughter, mother, wife and member of the Bala Cynwyd community. She is also an active member of the Philadelphia Chevra Kadisha, having started during COVID to help with this mitzvah. After the loss of their daughter in 2016, she began speaking about her experience with loss and sharing resources with the community on ways in which we can move forward after tragedy. In addition, Sonia began hosting an annual event in her daughter's memory to bring awareness to the community around the topic of infant loss and relationship with God.References:Teshuvot HaRadbaz Volume 3, 985Torat HaAdam, Introduction “Passing Through” by David BashevkinBerakhot 10a“Reconciling Opposites: Uncommon Connections in the Halakha of Mourning” by Emanuel FeldmanFrom One Life to the Next Life; The Sacred Passage after Death by Elissa FelderThe Wild Edge of Sorrow: Rituals of Renewal and the Sacred Work of Grief by Francis WellerThe Choice: Embrace the Possible by Dr. Edith Eva EgerConsolation: The Spiritual Journey Beyond Grief by Maurice LammGesher Hachaim - The Bridge of Life by Rabbi Yechiel Michel TucazinskyRabbi Yitzchak Hutner's Theology of Meaning by Alon ShalevFor more 18Forty:NEWSLETTER: 18forty.org/joinCALL: (212) 582-1840EMAIL: info@18forty.orgWEBSITE: 18forty.orgIG: @18fortyX: @18_fortyWhatsApp: join hereBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/18forty-podcast--4344730/support.
BOSSes, Anne Ganguzza and Tom Dheere dive into a lively and often debated topic for voiceover professionals: industry awards. Prompted by Anne's multiple Award nominations, they explore whether these accolades are simply vanity projects or powerful marketing tools. This episode delves into evolving perspectives on awards, the true meaning of a nomination, and practical strategies for leveraging any recognition to propel your voiceover business forward. They emphasize understanding the subjective nature of awards and how to use them for credibility, even beyond winning. 00:40 - Anne (Host) Hey everyone, welcome to the VO Boss Podcast. I'm your host, Anne Ganguzza, and I'm here with real boss, Tom Dheere. Woo-hoo, hi, Tom Dheere. I feel like there's pomp and circumstance for you, Tom Dheere, because it's that season again. Do you know what season it is? Deer season. 01:00 - Tom (Guest) Get it Tom Dheere, Deer season oh my God, that is really funny actually. That was terrible. It was not funny. 01:04 - Anne (Host) Well, okay, in addition to being deer season, right, it's award season. Woo-hoo, that's right it is award season. And I know there's always there's always always discussions about awards, and I've had discussions about awards before. I think we've probably talked about them before, but let's talk about them again, shall we? Because I think it's an ever-evolving thing and there are some people who are really for awards and some people who really detest awards. 01:32 - Tom (Guest) Yes, the reason why we're having this conversation, Anne, is because you got nominated for how many One Voice Awards. 01:41 - Anne (Host) Five why,thank you. 01:43 - Tom (Guest) Yes. 01:43 - Anne (Host) Why, thank you. 01:46 - Tom (Guest) I'm very excited about that. Wow, this is exciting and it's for all of the amazing work that you have gotten out of your students. 01:54 - Anne (Host) Yeah, for demos. 01:55 - Tom (Guest) That's amazing. Congratulations to you and all of your students. I'm very excited. 01:59 - Anne (Host) Yes, thank you, thank you. I like awards. I am one of those people that I actually endorse awards and I know some people think they're a vanity thing and in reality, for me it's always been about the marketing aspect. Tom, what are your thoughts? 02:15 - Tom (Guest) I used to be part of the anti-awards crew. I thought it was an exercise in vanity. I thought it was a money grab by the voiceover organizations that were hosting the awards, and my thoughts have evolved on the subject. Okay, I'd love to hear that. Well, I really do see now that it is truly a marketing tool and that is okay. All awards in all industries, from the Oscars all the way down to, you know, dog Catcher of the Year, these are all marketing. It's all about marketing. Is it about recognition? Yes. Is it a celebration of the industry in question? Yes. Is it to shine a spotlight on excellence, either from an individual or a group of individuals or a company, or whatever? Yes, is it to shine a spotlight on excellence either from an individual or a group of individuals or a company, or whatever? Yes, all of that is good and it should be supported. Is it an exercise of vanity? Yeah, sure, it's okay. There's nothing wrong with wanting to get dressed up and have people applaud you. There's nothing wrong with that, it's totally cool, it's totally cool. 03:22 - Anne (Host) Any excuse to get dressed up. 03:24 - Tom (Guest) Well, especially as voice actors who are stuck in closets in our pajamas all day, 03:27 - Anne (Host) Exactly exactly. 03:28 For me, it's always been marketing. First, because we have this whole conversation that awards are subjective. Right, I watch the awards, I watch the music awards, I watch the Emmys, the Oscars, I watch them all. Some people just they have so much to say about the awards, but honestly, I enjoy them if there's entertainment involved and I actually feel like it's wonderful when people get recognition that I feel deserve recognition. But of course, there's always the times where you're like I don't know how that person won or I don't know how that person didn't win, and so it is so very subjective and I think, first and foremost, we all need to remember that that is a fact. Right, it is very subjective and if you do not win an award, it has no bearing whatsoever on your worth or your quality at all, absolutely. 04:17 - Tom (Guest) It's interesting because the prism that most people look through all awards through is the Oscars. Right, and it's like Billy Crystal said it's an evening for three hours where millionaires are handing each other gold statues, which is pretty funny and accurate. But here's the thing I just realized about all this is that if you are a member of the Academy the Film Academy and you get your screeners, you know that Daniel Day-Lewis is up for best actor and you're watching the movie, or whatever excerpts of the movie that they sent you for you to cast your vote for him or somebody else. 04:50 - Anne (Host) Right or anybody else in any other category, or if you're not a voter right, you're a person going. Oh, hmm, somebody thinks that movie's credible, maybe I'll go see it. Guess what that resulted in Purchasing right, purchasing right, purchasing a ticket to go see that movie. So marketing, it worked, so marketing. 05:05 - Tom (Guest) But here's the interesting Anne that I just realized when it comes to the One Voice Awards which we both got, I got nominated for a little one, just one, yay, congratulations. 05:13 - Anne (Host) Tom Dheere. 05:13 - Tom (Guest) The commercial category. 05:14 - Anne (Host) Oh, that's right. That's right, Tom, that's awesome. 05:25 - Tom (Guest) So for your performance, but it's really nice. It's just being like, hey. But here's the thing about it is that when you submit, it's my understanding that when they listen to these demos that you help produce or these voiceovers that I did, they don't know who they're listening to. 05:41 - Anne (Host) Yeah, theoretically. 05:43 - Tom (Guest) So it's theoretically, I mean. 05:44 - Anne (Host) In a closed industry. Sometimes, like I know Tom De're listening to yeah, theoretically, so it's theoretically, I mean In a closed industry. Sometimes, like I know Tom Dheere voice. 05:48 - Tom (Guest) Well, that's exactly what I was about to say. I would like if there were three or four or five, if there were five people who were listening to these, I think that maybe two or three of them would probably be like that's Tom. 05:58 - Anne (Host) Yeah, yeah, yeah, but they don't talk to one another. 06:01 - Tom (Guest) But they don't talk to one other so it's generally anonymous and it's generally done in isolation. 06:06 - Anne (Host) I can say that for certain because I've been a judge prior. 06:09 - Tom (Guest) Right, oh, okay, so. 06:10 - Anne (Host) I can say for certain that it is closed and that you do not know who the entry is. You don't know who submitted it, right, and it's isolated. 06:18 - Tom (Guest) So for the five lovely voice actors whose demos were nominated that you produced. They didn't know who they were and they didn't know that necessarily that it was you that produced it. I mean, after a while, if you listen to enough demos, you can be like that's a Chuck Duran demo, that's a Nancy Wolfson demo because there's just like styles, there's styles you know what I mean, but for the most part they're not going to know who these voice actors are, who are nominated for any of these or for the demo. 06:43 So I think it's more of a pure. There's a level of purity in it that there isn't in the Oscars, for example. 06:48 - Anne (Host) Yeah, there's a combination for that particular category of not just the demo but the performance in the demo and hopefully, if you have created that demo and produced that demo, that has lent itself to a wonderful performance. And just being nominated, I want to say to anybody out there, just being nominated is a win. It doesn't matter, honestly, if I win, and I've been entering awards for years now. There's been many, many years where I didn't win and so I have to like always talk to myself and talk to my students to make sure that if I don't win it doesn't mean that I'm not worthy, it doesn't mean that that nomination wasn't really a win, because you can still believe it or not, you can market a nomination just like a win. 07:28 - Tom (Guest) Absolutely, and the Oscars— it sounds pretty darn similar. The Oscars do it all the time. 07:32 - Anne (Host) Mm-hmm. Award-nominated versus award-winning. 07:35 - Tom (Guest) Right. Did you ever watch the Secret Life of Walter Mitty? 07:38 - Anne (Host) That's the one that Ben Affleck wrote, and directed and starred in. 07:42 - Tom (Guest) I thought that movie was exceptional and I swore I was going to get all these nominations. It didn't get a one. 07:48 - Anne (Host) And. 07:49 - Tom (Guest) I don't know if it's because they didn't think it was off to snuff, if it was too past the deadline, or if they just chose not to submit it, because that's the other thing. We choose to submit ourselves for these awards. Now for actors in Broadway and television and film. They have their production companies or networks or whatever deciding to do these. Oh, we think these people have the best chance and they still have to pay submission fees as well, application fees for the nominations, just like any other nomination, which I think is-. 08:16 - Anne (Host) Well, there's a cost to running an award show. There's a cost to having people judge the awards. There's a cost for people's time, absolutely. So paying to enter yourself into an awards is. I don't find anything necessarily wrong about that. 08:33 - Speaker 2 (Announcement) No. 08:33 - Tom (Guest) Maybe how much you pay, I don't know I mean if it's a for-profit scheme, then you know, okay, I mean people who organize awards. Should they or do they deserve to make a profit, Like I don't know if, like the Oscars, if that's a nonprofit situation where they don't make any money off of it, they just want to celebrate the industry and recognize people for it, and they don't make a dime. And they make the fees just enough to cover the cost to produce the show and print and, you know, make the gold statues. 08:59 - Anne (Host) Well, it becomes a marketing effort for the venue. It becomes a marketing effort for the people who put stuff in the swag bags. It becomes a marketing effort for so many things really. And it's like it's not always obvious, but in reality it really does lend itself to marketing quite a bit. 09:17 - Tom (Guest) One of the other questions. One of the anti-award swath of the voiceover industry says winning award isn't going to book you more work. And for the Oscars? We know that's not true, because when actors or actresses win an Oscar, they get a lot more scripts on their desk. They've all said that they just get more acting opportunities. So in that context it's 100% true. Is it true for voice actors? I'd say it probably isn't, because your typical explainer video production company has never heard of the One Voice Awards. But that's not the reason that you do it. But yeah. 09:52 - Anne (Host) However, let's just go beyond it, because if you market yourself as an award-nominated voice actor or an award-winning voice actor, right, if somebody happens to find you or find your website, right, it lends some credibility. I believe it lends some credibility to who you are. So if I'm a person and I don't know the voices and I have two equal voices that I like if I see that one has won an award or has a history of winning awards or being nominated for awards, I'm going to feel like, oh, maybe they've been in business a little bit longer, maybe they're considered by others to be top of their field, and so I would maybe sway toward an award nominated or award winning. And again, it really depends on how people, given equal circumstances, award winning, award nominated versus maybe not. 10:42 - Tom (Guest) I think that's a very fair point. Now, where my mind was going where Tom Dheere, the VO strategist, business and marketing guy, was going is what's the SEO value of? 10:53 - Anne (Host) the terms award-winning. 10:55 - Speaker 2 (Announcement) Like how is that what's the? 10:56 - Tom (Guest) score. Yeah, what's the keyword score? You know what I mean. So actually, I want to make a note of that. I want to look that up when we get off of this. 11:03 - Anne (Host) I'll tell you, when I look for a company to purchase from right, what's the criteria? I want to make sure that that company's been in business for a while. I want to make sure that they put out a quality product and I want to know that there's testimonials of other people who have used that product that are actually saying yes, it helped me, it was wonderful, it was quick and painless. And think about that. This could be right. Anybody who might have won an award and has testimonials on their website. Right, If you've award winning, then that gives it a little bit of credibility that maybe other people have listened to this person. They're definitely a professional in the industry, right? You don't submit for an award unless you're a professional, so sometimes you just don't know who you're working with. It can help people, I think, to get to know you a little bit better, or really, I think, put that credibility forward first when people are making a buying decision. 11:58 - Tom (Guest) Yeah, I mean, and now that I'm thinking about it as we're talking about it, what's a better testimonial than an award nomination? Right, yeah, I mean, and now that I'm thinking about it as we're talking about it, what's a better testimonial than an award nomination? 12:04 - Anne (Host) Right, yeah, I mean really. 12:06 - Tom (Guest) Right, what's a better endorsement? 12:07 - Anne (Host) That was kind of my point right, it's a wonderful way. So if I buy because of they've been in business, they're not going to just go out of business and take my money and steal it. They're credible, right? They have a good product, right? Well, if they're award nominated, award-winning, that lends me to think that when I look for a beauty product, hello, I'm going to go back to you know award-winning award-winning formulas. 12:28 If I have no knowledge whatsoever of the product, right, I'm going to tend to look there first and after I look there, right, I'm going to look for it. Actually, if I do my shopping on Amazon or I do shopping on anything, right, I'm looking for the number of stars, the ratings, right, A lot of times they go hand in hand. Right Ratings and reviews. 12:46 Ratings and reviews and so award nominated best beauty product of 2024 by Elle magazine, that kind of thing. That kind of means something to me. I'm like, well, somebody did their research right and so therefore, if it's talking about a voice talent that's award-nominated and award-winning, I would feel like, oh okay, maybe there's some credibility there. Now I can go ahead and listen. Let me listen to the voice and see if it's something that I want. 13:10 - Tom (Guest) Yeah, yeah. And of course the capitalist in me thinks oh and if you're an award-winning voice actor, maybe you can charge more. 13:18 - Anne (Host) Well, I right, that's very true, but I also know like if people come to me for a demo, right, they're like I want to win an award. I always try to say to them well, that shouldn't be like I really have people say that to me. 13:28 That shouldn't be the goal. However, they're like I want an award-winning demo. What are they saying to me? They're saying to me that they want the absolute best demo that is valued by the community or valued by others in the community. So they want a valuable product. That's what they're saying to me and I'll kind of say, well, okay, I don't design demos to win an award. However, I want to design a demo to get you work right and if it wins an award, that's a great bonus. And they're like yeah, I know, but I still want an award winning right? People will say that to me, so it's kind of human nature, I think, to want to lean toward a product that is award-winning. 14:05 - Tom (Guest) Right, Because nobody says I want to eat something that's been not approved by the FDA. Yeah right, Exactly, I will never. I will eat at no restaurant that's ever won a Michelin star. I refuse, it's like no, that's ridiculous. 14:17 - Anne (Host) Because it's not just the recognition, it's what the recognition represents. Yeah, absolutely, absolutely so. For me that's where the awards have always sat and I did have issues for years until I explained to my students who I said I think you should enter this into the awards. I will always say, hey look, I think it's an award worthy product, right. And so they're like oh really, and that gives them like a sense of worth or a sense of like pride. Hopefully I wouldn't say it if I didn't think it had a chance of getting some recognition. 14:52 So if I say that to someone, then I've given them a sense of accomplishment, I'm giving them confidence in their product so that they can then represent themselves and sell it better, and that's basically how that'll work. But I will always explain to them look, if you do not win, remember awards are very, very subjective. There have been some amazing, just like there have been some amazing movies that didn't win the best picture of the year. There have been some amazing actors that have not won best actor or best actress, and so you know, you have to really make yourself aware, even though in your heart you might be disappointed if you don't win right or don't get nominated. But you do have to realize that it is very, very subjective especially if you've got an award show that it doesn't cost anything to enter. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. You're not losing out on anything really by submitting. 15:46 - Tom (Guest) I mean, take a chance. It's like playing the lottery, right. Take a chance, Absolutely. So, with all that in mind, what do you do from a marketing stance? And I've got my own ideas too, about how we could tell VO bosses. You've got a thing, whether it's a spot that I did for a college or if there's a demo that you produce with a student. 15:59 - Anne (Host) What are the? 16:00 - Tom (Guest) steps to use it, to use the award, nomination and hopefully the win, as a marketing tool. 16:05 - Anne (Host) Well, absolutely put it on your website right. 16:08 Absolutely throw it on YouTube, put it on your website. Label it as being award nominated, award winning, like. Make sure the text is in there, because that's SEO value. Make sure that it's on your website, make sure that it's on every single profile, make sure that it's in every single description, make sure that it's literally like SEO optimized. And then make sure that wherever you're describing it as an award nominated, right, award winning entry or whatever that might be, make sure that you're also giving information about the industry that you're in best performance voice actor, corporate narration, right or whatever, or best performance demo, reel, animation so it then allocates the other words that are important. So when people are searching for animation, voice, right and then all of a sudden, this will come up, as I'm so excited that my award-winning entry or award-nominated entry or whatever if something comes up or shows up in their search, that's going to lend its credibility and also hopefully lead to your website so that they can then inquire further or get an audition from you or find out more and contact you. 17:14 - Tom (Guest) Yes, I'll layer on top of that, like, for example, when I found out I got my One Voice nomination, I wrote a blog about it. 17:22 - Anne (Host) Yep, that's wonderful. 17:24 - Tom (Guest) So what that does is a number of things. Every time that you write a blog, you publish a blog, it adds another page to your website and All of the content on that particular website is saying voice over, this voice acting, that voice talent, this voice artist, that. So it's got all of the keywords that would further enrich the search engine optimization of your website, to make it more searchable and for it to rank higher. So just writing about it is extremely important on a technical SEO level. However, you don't want to turn it into a self-aggrandizing. Oh, look at me. It could be about a number of things. 18:05 - Anne (Host) It could be about the company that created the one voice in this situation, or about the company that you voiced for. 18:11 - Tom (Guest) Or about the company that you voiced for exactly. So a couple years ago I got a one voice nomination for a public service announcement I did for the Humane Society. Remember those 4,000 beagles were rescued from a lab in Virginia. A few years ago. 18:25 And then the American Humane Society got all 4,000 beagles adopted. So I auditioned and booked the voiceover for the public service announcement announcing that all 4,000 beagles were adopted. So when I blogged a few years ago back then about hey, I got this award nomination, it wasn't about the award, it wasn't about the nomination, it wasn't about me, it was about bringing awareness, it was about the beagle puppies. That's what it was about. I made it about the puppies. 18:53 - Anne (Host) And that's wonderful, because what's a better draw than animals, your fur babies, right? 18:59 - Tom (Guest) Yes. 19:02 - Anne (Host) Which is I lead all my award nominations with my cats there you go. 19:04 But that's an actual great idea, like somehow, let's just say, my Bengal Manx mix Sebastian, who everybody's gotten to know because they have their own Facebook and Instagram and TikTok right. So we could just say, oh, they're in my studio listening and then all of a sudden you can silently incorporate or just in the back end, incorporate that performance or that particular working on a demo for blah blah, blah blah blah For me on my website, because I advertise that I do demo production. Under the demo page, the landing page, I have all the awards and nominations that I've ever done and received, and for the VO Boss, because we've won awards for the VO Boss podcast and nominations. I also have it on my VO Boss website as well, as well as writing a blog on VO Boss about it. So absolutely trying to garner an award-winning podcast. 19:49 - Tom (Guest) Yeah, the other thing that I do is I make sure that I reached out to the production company that cast me for it, so my nomination this time was for North Idaho. College just a real tiny, tiny little postage stamp-sized college in the Northwest of our country and that one got nominated and it's a great. It's a great ad. It's beautifully shot, the editing is just superb. The music is perfect. You know, I'm probably the worst thing about the whole thing. 20:16 - Anne (Host) I love how generous you are. I think that's the way you need to approach it. They could just break apart and say it's your voice, but in reality, when you're presenting a product or a piece for an award, it's the whole darn shebang. If you think about it, that helps with that presentation. It's the media, the music behind it, the voice. It's all like a beautiful symphony in reality. 20:36 And so paying it forward and having gratitude for the other parts of it that helped you to win that award or that nomination, I think is a wonderful way to not appear to make it like a vanity thing, because you're showing appreciation for all of the components that help make it happen. I mean, whenever I make an announcement by the way, the other thing that I do to market is on social media, right so I'm highlighting the demo clients of mine that their voice has been nominated, and I'm also giving thanks to my audio engineer and in reality, it's like I could not have done it without you, to be quite honest, and so that then lends it to be a little less vanity ridden or sounding, I should say. 21:16 - Tom (Guest) Right, I mean in the Oscar Awards, do they go up there, accept the award, thank themselves and then get off the stage? 21:21 - Anne (Host) No, they're always thanking the people that helped them make it possible, really Exactly Also just from a technical and SEO perspective. 21:28 - Tom (Guest) Another reason why I like to let the production company know is because now they have the opportunity to use this nomination as marketing fodder for their own campaigns on their website and social media and newsletters and things like that. 21:43 So it's just paying it forward also on a marketing level. So the production company just has because all the voice seekers are as desperate to come up with quality content to put on their website and social media and their communications as us voice actors are. So to give them saying, hey, here's a free nugget of marketing gold that you can go do something with it helps everybody. 22:05 - Anne (Host) Absolutely. I actually got a statue. I got one of the awards for one of my partners on the podcast and shipped it. When I won this podcast I'm trying to think a couple years ago I also ordered an award for the person that I interviewed on that show and I shipped it, and that was actually for Alex Srdjak from Respeecher, so I shipped it to. Ukraine. 22:27 So I literally and that's how grateful I was. And it was really cool because when he received it, of course, what did he do? He took a picture of it with him, right, and then he used it for his own marketing, which I thought was really wonderful. So it kind of was like it all works for everybody involved. 22:42 - Tom (Guest) See, haters. There are so many great things about a voiceover award nomination and a win. There's so many great things that you can do, not just for yourself, but for the people that made the nomination possible. 22:53 - Anne (Host) Absolutely. You know what do you say to the haters? I mean you don't have to enter and you don't have to watch. I mean you don't have to enter and you don't have to watch awards and you don't have to participate. If you don't agree with it, that's completely fine. It's completely fine in reality, but for those that do, there's value to it beyond the award. Really, it's beyond the award and, like I said, even if you don't get nominated, if your coach or somebody says you should submit that for an award, consider that a win. Really. If you have a colleague that listens to this and say, oh my God, that was amazing, you should submit that. Right, there is an award for confidence, for somebody believing in you and believing in your work and thinking that it is worthy of an award, and that, to me, is a win right there. 23:36 - Tom (Guest) Absolutely. 23:37 - Anne (Host) So good stuff. Tom Dheere, Congrats on your noms. 23:42 - Tom (Guest) Congrats on your noms. 23:43 - Anne (Host) Yeah, thank you. And bosses out there, utilize this for good, for marketing efforts. And even if you just want to submit your work to your colleague and say, what do you think right, consider that your award submission for a job well done. And if you don't win, don't let it affect you. It has nothing to do with your worthiness, with your performance. It basically is something that you know. What if you don't win, try, try again. What is it If you don't? 24:09 - Tom (Guest) If at first you don't succeed try, try again. 24:12 - Anne (Host) Well, yeah, well, if you don't win, try, try again. That's what I say. I always think there's something good in a little bit of competition, right? That keeps us motivated and keeps us inspired to want to be better and do better. So allow that to help you further your career. So, whether or not you win an award, allow it to inspire and motivate you. So good stuff. All right, Tom, thank you so much.

Red Wemette : "Nobody Cares and What I did About It! The Red Wemette Story of the Chicago Outfit"If you have ever wanted to see what it is like to live on the wild side—all from the safety and security of your own armchair—then Nobody Cares and What I Did About It! The Red Wemette Story of The Chicago Outfit is for you. It is a veritable proof that truth is sometimes stranger than fiction!A fascinating, firsthand account of events in the life and times of William “Red” Wemette—the longest Organized Crime undercover informant [other than for espionage] for the FBI in U.S. History who spent eighteen years as an FBI mole. This book details how he did what he did, and why. It also settles, once and for all, the question of whether he is an actual person rather than a contrived governmental construct, as some federal agents believed. Take a look through the eyes of a man who has lived the life that most people can hardly imagine. He details his firsthand interactions with hitmen, murderers, thieves, and extortionists [from both sides of the law] in a never-before revealed series of stories that share insights and historical perspectives on the colorful excursions of the Chicago Mafia—more accurately known as “The Outfit.” Intriguing details of his role in the Family Secret's Trial, the take down of one of the Outfit's most feared, nationwide hitmen, Frank Schweihs, and the forty-year-old triple homicide that sparked Cold Case files in Cook County and throughout the U.S. This book is a must-have for law enforcement officers, lawyers, politicians, historians, or anyone who wants the truth behind the Hollywood hype found in the many movies or books that cover “The Chicago Way” of doing business across the country.https://amzn.to/40o1PfhBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Today, we're excited to speak with Teresa Peterson. Teresa is Sisseton Wahpeton Dakota and a member of the Upper Sioux Community. She is a passionate gardener, gatherer, lover of the land and author of several books, most recently the award-winning Perennial Ceremony. Teresa talks to us about her love of growing things. That includes tending a large garden, where she forages for tossed salads and asparagus on the grill, and taking care of her land. She chips her own mulch. She plants perennials to sequester carbon and prevent erosion. And she's working on getting a couple goats to eradicate invasive plants. One of her mottos is: When you know who you are, no matter where you go, you belong. Writing has been part of that journey of self-knowledge. Her latest book, Perennial Ceremony: Lessons and Gifts from a Dakota Garden (2024), is an invitation to readers to join her on a seasonal journey of stories, poetry and recipes. The mother of three, Teresa lives with her husband Jay on just over seven acres overlooking the Mni Sota River Valley. -----Hosts: Leah Lemm, Cole Premo Editor: Britt Aamodt Editorial support: Emily Krumberger Mixing & mastering: Chris Harwood

On this episode of The Adam and Dr. Drew Show, Adam and Dr. Drew try to pinpoint the moment society began its slow descent into chaos. They dive into the cultural obsession with “work-life balance” and call out modern men who think more like chicks than dudes. The two also react to a recent Gavin Newsom tweet and discuss the absurdity of today's car commercials—including a Volkswagen ad featuring two men caring for a sheep like it's a dog, and another with a man writing a letter in his car. What happened to selling horsepower and performance? Their takeaway: this generation no longer sweats the details—and it shows.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Today, we're looking at New York Times columnist David French's apparent shift on "transgender" issues, as he's seemed to change his tune on preferred pronouns and how this relates to Christianity. We explore how this change undermines his claims of principled conservatism and examine the case of Brian Riedl, a Manhattan Institute fellow now identifying as Jessica, whose claims of having a "female brain" lack scientific backing. We also tackle the debate over birthright citizenship, unpacking the Supreme Court's recent ruling on Trump's executive order, and how birth tourism and chain migration are reasons we should consider doing away with birthright citizenship. Finally, we address a viral story about an ICE detainee allegedly losing her baby due to neglected medical care. The Department of Homeland Security claims this isn't true, so we look at counterclaims and urge caution against emotionally charged narratives.
