An unprecedented judgment declared Aboriginal title over privately held land, not far from the Metro Vancouver area. It has stirred a divisive debate in British Columbia around reconciliation and legal commitments to First Nations.
As we continue our series titled, “Good In Tension.” We will look at how a follower of Jesus can work toward finding common ground with others while we are all trying to navigate through what seems to be perilous times in our ever-changing culture.
Jamelle Bouie thinks almost every president has sought "common ground," that is until now. Is this true?https://mcclanahanacademy.comhttps://patreon.com/thebrionmcclanahanshowhttps://brionmcclanahan.com/supporthttp://learntruehistory.com

This episode of the National Links Trust Podcast is a recording from a recent edition of the Municipal Golf Network Webinar Program. In this episode, we explore how municipal and daily fee public golf facilities can build and sustain successful junior caddie programs.A junior caddie program not only offers golfers a unique way to experience your course—it also deepens your facility's impact on the community. These programs teach kids and teens valuable communication and life skills, introduce them to the game of golf, and can open doors to life-changing scholarship opportunities, including the Western Golf Association's Evans Scholars Program, which provides full tuition and housing scholarships to deserving junior caddies nationwide.This webinar specifically spotlights one of the country's best models: CommonGround Golf Course in Denver, Colorado. Owned and operated by the Colorado Golf Association, CommonGround is home to the Solich Caddie & Leadership Academy, a two-year program that develops leadership and character through caddying. Like National Links Trust's Jack Vardaman Workforce Development Program, the Solich Academy partners with the WGA to connect caddies with the Evans Scholars Program. Guests in this episode include Ed Mate, Executive Director and CEO of the Colorado Golf Association, who has led the growth of the Solich Academy and Brandon Rogers, Senior Director of Caddie Development (Southwest Region) and Spencer Groessl, Director of Caddie Recruitment, (Central Region) for the WGA.

What if I told you the most powerful climate technology on Earth isn't in a lab, but right under our feet? In this episode of my podcast, Plant Based Curious, I sit down with the brilliant filmmaker and regenerative thought leader, Rebecca Tickell, Documentary Filmmaker of Common Ground to get to the root of a truth we all learned in grade school but have since forgotten: the profound, world-changing power of photosynthesis.Rebecca helps me revisit that simple, magical process—where plants breathe in carbon and breathe out oxygen—and she reveals the hidden half of the story that changes everything. She explains to me how carbon isn't just exchanged; it's actively drawn down through the plant and fed directly into the soil through its roots. She calls this the "liquid carbon pathway," and it's the very foundation of the rich, living web of soil that sustains us all.In a moment that truly reframed my thinking, Rebecca shared a stunning, full-circle truth with me: the majority of the excess carbon now overheating our atmosphere originally came from this same soil, lost over centuries. This means that by understanding how plants feed the soil, we aren't just growing food—we're activating the planet's original carbon drawdown system.I invite you to join Rebecca and me for a conversation that fundamentally changed how I see the ground beneath my feet. It's my personal invitation to you to reconnect the dots between the plants on our plates, the health of our soil, and the stability of our climate.Here's what I discovered in our conversation:The hidden journey of carbon from leaf to root to soil.Why I now see healthy soil as so much more than "dirt"—it's a living carbon bank.How the climate crisis is, at its heart, a story of misplaced carbon.Practical ways our food and farming choices can align with this ancient, healing cycle.Tune in with me for this essential conversation on how to heal our planet from the ground up.Send us a textSupport the show"Thanks for listening to The Plant-Based Curious Podcast.

In this podcast, Jeff discusses the arrest of Venezuelan President Maduro; not just the legalities of the arrest but why this arrest means so much more than capturing a narcotrafficker: Iran, its terror leadership already teetering, stands to lose its Latin American base and financial support. Additionally, those against the arrest are the usual Israel-hating suspects: the far left, Muslim terror states and now, a new addition: the woke right which has decided that partnering with the far left makes sense only when it comes to one issue: mutual Jew hate. The consequences of this obsession cannot be more stark as noted by the recent fraud headlines coming out of Minnesota.
Drawing on more than a decade in local and county government, Marty Campbell offers rare insight into how policy is actually made and a truth hiding in plain sight: While politics grows louder and more polarized, there is still far more common ground than we are led to believe. We just don't talk about it.As media rewards outrage and division, Campbell argues that the real danger facing democracy is not disagreement. It is the disappearance of the shared civic space where reasonable people once met, learned, and governed together.

Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. Low performers, who complains about not being accountable. Low performers, you're getting it, right? Go to battle with those that you could do that. All right, so now I'll give you some of the trends that I'm seeing. All right, so we do business and we've advised companies in 78 countries. One of the advantages of that is we see trends before they come here and we also, for our other than US clients, we see the trends here and we can run over there and say, hey, guess what's coming, right? As much as anything else right now, for the next five years, you are gonna win on the how. Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more. My name is Carl Gould, and this has been your #70secondCEO.
Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. So now business owners, I won't embarrass you by asking you to stand up if there's somebody in your business you would need to fire because you would all stand up, but you need to let that person go. Who you say no to on your team is equally as important to who you say yes to on your team. I would rather have a smaller team of high performers than a larger team that has mid or lower performers. High performers don't like low performers. Low performers don't like high performers. Don't put them in the same room. You can find all the research. You put a high performer and a low performer in the same room. A low performer will drag down the high performer 15 to 35% in their productivity, 15 to 35%. You're better off just getting rid of the lower performer. Yeah, but who's gonna answer the phone? Oh, geez, we'll figure that out. Oh yeah, but I don't have anyone to go to the trade show. Oh, so what? Better an empty booth than what you put in that booth, right? Make sure to be, again, award your higher standard people.

One of those Republicans, Congressman Mike Lawler (R-NY), spoke to Bret alongside Congressman Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ) last week to explain his support for temporarily extending the subsidies, despite the potential backlash it could bring from the rest of his party. The discharge petition passed on December 17, 2025, although a vote on extending the ACA subsidies has not yet been scheduled. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

What can bear hunting in rural Pennsylvania teach us about American politics? Michael speaks with Washington Post columnist and bestselling author Salena Zito about her immersive reporting from a Pennsylvania bear camp — a place where Democrats, Republicans, and independents come together without arguing politics. Zito explains why most Americans are far less politically obsessed than social media suggests, how community and tradition shape voter behavior, and why Pennsylvania remains the most misunderstood — and decisive — state in national elections. A timely conversation about culture, unity, and the real lives behind the headlines. Original air date 22 December 2025. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
