Mr Chutes Powerful Message to Kids and Who They're Surrounded By by Maine's Coast 93.1

It's time for another Mind Gap Podcast! This week, Noah Reno is back again to chat with Doug about what underrated piece of media they wish more people talked about. Next, the dorks have fun discussing how to reimagine childhood board games as horror films. Candyland is pitched as eating the sugary characters to survive. Chutes and Ladders becomes a cosmic horror. Jenga is a tale of the world being destroyed by children. There are so many more pitches PLUS suggestions from the community on how they would turn these classic games into something scary. Next, the guys discuss what board game would make the best horror franchise. Spoiler: Monopoly is one of the easiest ones to do.    Things are wrapped up with a new game called Patch Notes: Real Life Edition, where Doug reads out patch notes for real life and Noah has to decide if they're good or if they should be scrapped as garbage.

Full of Southern sayings and heartfelt wisdom, Sid shares what makes a true bullfighter—and why being jumpy might just save your life.This one's full of laughter, humility, and raw rodeo truth straight from someone who never tried to be anything but himself.

Mali Noyes just pulled off a mind-blowing feat in the ski world: completing the Chuting Gallery in 47 days. That's 93 chutes (she actually did more than that) around the Wasatch in 47 days, with over 200,000 feet of vert climbed, while navigating tricky conditions, complex terrain, incredible physical demands, and mental and emotional fatigue. And she pulled it all off in a time that seems almost unfathomable. So how did she do it? And what led her to take it on? Jonathan Ellsworth talks with Mali about all of it, including some of the best advice she received from Greg Hill, Cody Townsend, Janelle Smiley, and Sam Smoothy.RELATED LINKS:Episode Sponsor: Skratch LabsGet Yourself Covered: BLISTER+Mali's YouTube ChannelTOPICS & TIMES:Skratch Labs: JE's favorite product (1:14)New BLISTER+ Members (2:13)History of The Chuting Gallery (3:47)What Were Your Goals?

Nous sommes cet être pétri d'insatiété qui croit parfois rechercher la satiété mais qui sait bien, au fond de lui, que cet objectif est un leurre, que l'atteindre ne servira à rien, qu'il n'en sera pas comblé parce qu'il ne veut pas être comblé, que ce qu'il cherche est le seul mouvement, le seul plaisir du désir, cette seule façon de se sentir vivant.

Show Notes Episode 495: Avon, Amway and Tupperware, OH MY! This week host Dave Bledsoe devises a plan where he recruits two people to pay for his drinks and they recruit two people to pay for their drinks and one of his, everyone profits. (It didn't work because no one likes him enough to buy even ONE drink for him.) On the show this week we took a look back at side hustles in the 70's and 80's (And maybe by some Tupperware.) Along the way we learn that Dave might not be the worst uncle out there? Then we dive into the history of direct sales in America (Buy Farmwhoofer, buy the best!) before we head back to the beginnings of an American institution and how it made generations of American women feel pretty.  Then we move right along to the origin story of all those plastic bowls with missing lids in your parent's kitchen cabinets. (Seriously, none of these lids fit any of the bowls we have!) Then we talk about the granddaddy of multi level marketing scams. (Allegedly) And how Amway created something kind of like a cult around selling generic crap and how it is screwing us even today! Our Sponsor this week is Ponz-Co, we promise it's not illegal.  We open with the burp to seal wonder of Tupperware and close with Chutes and Ladders who are falling in love with the Avon Lady!

Buying a home is a rent replacement strategy."Highlights:What if you could start planning your home purchase today at no cost, even if you're 2-3 years away from buying?Could your belief in common myths like needing 20% down or a 700+ credit score be holding you back from starting your homebuying journey?Is "waiting for the crash" actually costing you more than taking action now with a solid plan?What's the real reason behind rising home prices in 2025, and how can understanding inventory levels help inform your decision?How might converting your monthly rent payment into mortgage payments help build long-term wealth instead of just covering 30 days of living?Could working with the right professionals earlier in your journey - way earlier than most people think - give you an advantage in today's market?Referenced Episodes:Episode 40, 48, 51 - "I Did It" success storiesEpisode 53 - Madison's condo purchase storyEpisode 151, 162, 168, 192, 219, 225 - Market updates and changesEpisode 251 - The Last Lease Ever planEpisode 274, 299 - JT's perspective episodesEpisode 290 - 2025 Forecast and PredictionsEpisode 296 - Market follow-upEpisode 98 - David's personal rental storyEpisode 164 - Chutes and Ladders analogyConnect with me to find a trusted realtor in your area or to answer your burning questions!Subscribe to our YouTube Channel @HowToBuyaHomeInstagram @HowtoBuyAHomePodcastTik Tok @HowToBuyAHomeThis podcast was created for YOU - to cut through the confusion and empower you to buy your first home.

Selon une nouvelle étude, un exercice simple, qu'on pourrait qualifier de "test du flament rose", permet de savoir si on est à risque de chute. Explications. Ecoutez Ça va Beaucoup Mieux avec Aline Perraudin du 28 octobre 2024.

Skidroads, log chutes and flumes were used to transport lumber to the mills and to market. Skidroads used oxen to pull tons of huge logs. Chutes were long troughs made of wood. John Cook's chute sent logs at 90 miles an hour, sizzling when they hit the water. Flumes with water were as long as 54 miles. Brave souls occasionally rode in special boats down the flume, not all of them made it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Colorado Springs is a bucket list destination for mountain biking, most especially due to the variety of trails, terrains, views, and accessibility, but it has been community support through local trail building non-profits that has been key to maintaining and growing it and making it so great. But there was still a need for more advanced trail advocacy and building and now thanks to the Colorado Springs Mountain Biking Association, it's getting even better. The organization, formed just two years ago, has fast become a force in helping to speed up the process for creating and improving trails and connections - not just for advanced mountain bikers but all levels of users.

A Facebook memory popped up, showing me a picture of my triumphant five-year-old when she’d won a fun and competitive game of Chutes and Ladders. I’d tagged my brother and sister in the post because we’d often played this board game when we were kids. Chutes and Ladders is based on a game that’s been played for centuries, helping people learn to count and providing the thrill of being able to climb a ladder and win the game by getting to 100 the fastest. But watch out! If you land on spot 98, you slide far down the chute, delaying—or even prohibiting—victory. Isn’t that just like life? Jesus lovingly prepared us for the ups and downs of our days. He said we’d experience “trouble” (John 16: 33), but He also shared a message of peace. We don’t have to be shaken by the trials we face. Why? Christ has overcome the world! Nothing is greater than His power, so we too can face whatever comes our way with “the mighty strength” He’s made available to us (Ephesians 1:19). Just like in Chutes and Ladders, sometimes life presents a ladder allowing us to happily ascend and other times we tumble down a slippery slide. But we don’t have to play the game of life without hope. We have the power of Jesus to help us overcome it all.
