Darrell Castle speaks to the best and worst of times as a good description of our times, today. Transcription / Notes THE BEST AND WORST OF TIMES Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 31st day of October in the year of our Lord 2025. Yes, this is Halloween day, a traditional spooky, bad news day, but I have decided to use this spooky day and borrow a bit from the classic novel written by Charles Dickens entitled “A Tale of Two Cities”. Mr. Dickens opened his novel with “It Was the Best of Times; It Was the Worst of Times” and that is a pretty good description of our times, today. Dickens wrote those words in 1859 as the title and opening of his novel which was set in London and Paris during the French Revolution. “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity.” That sounds so much like today because the more things change the more they stay the same and as we all know technology constantly changes but human nature does not. The setting of Dickens' novel was an age of radical opposites that faced each other much like today, but today they are not cities but political divisions. Here in present-day America, we have opposing forces and contrasting views everywhere you look. In New York City, for example, there seems to be a very good possibility that the people of that once great city will elect a man named Zohran Mamdani as mayor in the upcoming election. The man is often described as a communist as well as an Islamic fundamentalist at the same time. Those two terms are, of course, contradictory because communism was founded and still is based on atheism while Islam is obviously based on a belief in God. He does seem to have some radical ideas based on economic theories which have been failures everywhere they have been tried. He is not the first to suggest that public transportation be free without any corresponding explanation of where he would get the money to pay for it. See folks, nothing government does is ever free because someone always pays and the politicians want the people to give them the authority to decide who they will steal the money from. I suppose that is true democracy whereby the mob is empowered to loot anyone not voting with the majority. Once again it proves the wisdom of the founders who believed in individual rather than collective rights. Just wind the clock back a century or so and you will find the words of Thomas Paine who wrote a revolutionary pamphlet called Common Sense. One article or series of articles in the pamphlet was called The Crises. He began that section with the words, “These Are the Times That Try Men's Souls” and that phrase seems more appropriate today than ever. That phrase is especially true here on Halloween Day as many vitally important things hang in the balance such as NYC and whether that city will ever be great again or whether it will continue its slide into the abyss. So, Mr. Mamdani is an example of the worst of times. The best of times is an amazing contrast whereby the people of Argentina, after decades of socialist experiments, which left that once powerhouse of an economy in a state of collapse decided to change course. What could be more wonderful than the joy of seeing voters reject the allure of socialism for the second time. Argentina's president, Javier Milei, has led his party to a landslide victory in the elections held last Sunday. Radical spending cuts and free-market reforms defined the two years of his presidency and the people of Argentina have endorsed his efforts and decided to continue the road to recovery. That's the very good news from Argentina. The bad news or at least I have decided to see it as bad news is that Donald Trump agreed to extend a $40 billion loan to Argentina which has defaulted three times since the year 2000.
Stephen LeDrew sits down with commentator Jasmin Laine for a bold discussion on gender, fairness, and political double standards. The two tackle a college volleyball controversy where trans athletes born male competed against cisgender women - and ask why Canadians are so afraid to call out what's plainly unfair. Jasmin argues Canada's compassion has gone “too far,” while Stephen presses on how political virtue-signalling has replaced common sense. The conversation shifts to Mark Carney's climate reversals and his shifting principles, questioning whether Canada's new leadership is driven by conviction - or convenience.

Steve Nygren is the founder and CEO of Serenbe, a wellness community created as a model to demonstrate that preserving green space interlaced with agriculture, housing and retail is not only economically viable, but the future of community wellbeing. Nygren, a visionary placemaker—someone who specializes in transforming public spaces into areas that foster community, connection and well-being—has pulled together his expertise in Start in Your Own Backyard: Transforming Where We Live with Radical Common Sense, a blueprint for developing sustainable communities where citizens of all generations can thrive, "and awe is found in everyday moments." He says this requires understanding the following: The unintended consequences of sprawl, and why clustered development supports more green space, more housing and lower costs Why being disconnected from nature and each other is at the root of many environmental, societal and health-related woes Tactics to encourage a local food-based economy (and why that matters) How small yards, front porches, and blueberry bushes at crosswalks lead to strong, supportive neighborhoods The benefits of aging in place, and how to nurture connections between uncaged elders and free-range kids Nygren says that for many Americans, life is no longer working. We are increasingly sick, stressed, anxious, and unhappy. Many feel left behind by the economy, disillusioned by once-respected institutions, and helpless in the face of environmental decline. Nygren argues that much of this can be traced to where—and how—we live, and that by rethinking and reinvesting in our own communities, we can rediscover the joy of connected, meaningful lives for ourselves and future generations. Nygren's work has earned him the Global Wellness Institute's Leader in Innovation Award and Southface's Argon Award as well as recognition from the Urban Land Institute and the Atlanta Regional Commission. He was also named Georgia Trend's 2019 Most Respected Business Leader and the MLK Jr. Beloved Community Environmental Justice Award in 2025. Nygren currently serves on multiple local and national boards dealing with children, agriculture and environmental issues, including The Ray C. Anderson Foundation, Children & Nature Network, Chattahoochee Now and The Biophilic Institute. He is also a partner at Nygren Placemaking consulting and started his career as a serial hospitality entrepreneur, having founded the 34-restaurant group, Peasant Restaurants.

Plausibly Live! - The Official Podcast of The Dave Bowman Show
In early 1776, Thomas Paine set fire to the old world with his pen. His pamphlet Common Sense didn't just argue for American independence; it attacked the very idea of monarchy itself. Paine called King George III “the royal brute of Britain” and dismissed hereditary rule as absurd, insisting that no man was born to govern another.He wrote in plain, direct language that ordinary people could understand, mocking the pomp and privilege of kings while reminding readers that real power belongs to the people. His words stripped away the illusion of divine right and exposed monarchy as a system built on fear and habit.In this episode, we explore Paine's fearless assault on tyranny, his scathing humor, and how his ideas helped ordinary colonists see themselves as citizens instead of subjects. Paine didn't just challenge a king; he challenged an entire way of thinking—and changed the world forever.

We like to think of ourselves as rational.We believe in equality, respect, and decency. And we assume that any reasonable person would agree with us.That's what makes it so frustrating when someone doesn't, especially when they follow someone like Andrew Tate.We shake our heads. We roll our eyes.We say, “How could anyone believe that?!”But here's a hard truth:The people who follow him— they're not crazy.They're just programmed differently.In this week's Spiritual Perspective, we explore what's really behind our most intense reactions—especially when someone sees the world completely differently.And why the people we're quickest to judge might actually make more sense than we think.I think this one's going to surprise you.Send us a text message.

Former Senator Joe Manchin (I-WV) joins Michael to discuss his memoir, "Dead Center: In Defense of Common Sense." Together, they explore the deep divides in American politics, what it means to 'lead from the middle,' and why Manchin believes the center is the only path forward for the country. From his candid reflections on the Democratic Party's evolution to his efforts to build bipartisan cooperation through his “Americans Together” initiative, Manchin opens up about lessons learned in Washington and what he got wrong—like aspects of the Affordable Care Act. The conversation ranges from party polarization to possible paths for independent candidates and the future of term limits—all grounded in Manchin's belief that “if you can't change your mind, you can't change anything.” Original air date 21 October 2025. The book was published on 16 September 2025. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
Anti-gunners love to say, “We don't want to take your guns — we just want common-sense laws.” This week, the crew breaks down why that's one of the most dangerous and misleading political lies ever told. From Obama-era doublespeak to decades of incremental bans, they show how every “reasonable restriction” adds up to the same goal: total civilian disarmament — just slower. Learn how California's roster, magazine limits, and “assault weapon” bans prove the strategy: chip away until nothing's left.

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – Across America, law and order face open rebellion. Progressive activists recast criminals as victims and law enforcement as oppressors, twisting truth into ideology. From border battles to small-town politics, chaos replaces accountability. Yet ordinary citizens still have the power to stand firm, defend justice, and restore the moral foundation that keeps the Republic strong...
"If you can't state the truth, you can't really pursue it either." Scott, project coordinator with the Atlas Society and partner with the Free Society Coalition, left his comfortable career in financial services after a health scare made him realize it was "worth spending my time left advocating for the future I hope for." Drawing parallels between Thomas Paine's revolutionary Common Sense and today's censorship crisis, Scott argues the Declaration of Independence isn't just nostalgia—it's "a kind of reset button for dialogue" that can help us overcome our increasingly fractured society. He explores how John Locke's "life, liberty and property" evolved into Jefferson's pursuit of happiness, why "at a certain point, you're a slave" if you can't say what you want, and how the wars of religion ultimately birthed the Enlightenment ideas that shaped America's founding. Scott envisions massive "Liberty Revival" gatherings where citizens hash out ethical principles and free speech guidelines—holding everyone to a single standard without double standards based on historical grievances. **Note: Scott also wants to clarify that in his comments on Michael Jordan that he “was making a point about how a health or any other kind of scare can sometimes be useful to reassess our values.”From the financial services industry to blues band frontman to freedom advocate, Scott reminds us that sometimes you need to get yourself "worked up" and ready to fight for the world you want to live in, because waiting for perfect conditions means liberty loses by default.

oin former U.S. Senator Joe Manchin for a timely and candid online-only conversation about his maverick career in government, crossing party lines, and addressing the dysfunction at the heart of our politics—centered around his new memoir, Dead Center: In Defense of Common Sense. At a time when our country feels more divided than ever, Senator Manchin is inviting Americans back to the center—where solutions are possible, principles still matter, and leadership starts with listening. From the coal fields of Farmington, West Virginia, to some of the highest-stakes decisions in the U.S. Senate, Manchin has never wavered from his core beliefs: fiscal responsibility, social compassion, and putting country before party. In Dead Center—part memoir, part manifesto—he makes a passionate case for a new, solutions-oriented politics rooted in common sense. Reflecting on the decisions that shaped him as a leader and public servant, he shares never-before-told stories from inside the Senate and the White House, along with fresh insight into how government can deliver real results for the American people. It's a reminder that leadership still matters, character still counts, and common sense should never go out of style. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

8 Common Sense Rules You Can't Avoid October 15, 2025 | Episode 5203 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description What if life came with rules you could just accept and move on? Scott dives into eight unavoidable truths that successful people need to hear. These aren't the kind of rules you break or bend. They're the ones that make life easier once you stop fighting them. From passion to frustration to that big picture you keep losing sight of, this episode cuts through the noise. You'll walk away knowing exactly which battles aren't worth fighting. Featured Story Picture this: Scott's sitting at his favorite coffee shop on Beach Street in Daytona, enjoying a perfect latte on a beautiful day. He's done with work. Life is good. Then it hits him. He hasn't recorded the podcast yet. The very one you're listening to right now. So he hops on his motorcycle and rides all the way back home to hit record. And the irony? He's about to talk about life's unavoidable rules and the speed limits we all face. Sometimes you want to relax at a coffee shop. Sometimes life has other plans. Important Points Following your passion doesn't guarantee immediate money, but it guarantees happiness while you figure out the money part. The road ahead will get rough, then smooth, then rough again—and that's true whether you take the easy path or the hard one. You're never going to eliminate frustration, but you can choose to be frustrated and excited at the same time. Memorable Quotes "Nothing will ever happen until you move from daydreaming into daily action." "Whatever path you thought you would travel, it's going to change." "Once you understand this, here's what happens. Suddenly all this stuff just kind of takes less precedence in your life." Scott's Three-Step Approach Accept that your calling is just the first step, not the complete plan—five years from now, you'll wonder how you got there, but you'll love it. Check your speed limit regularly and pace yourself—hustle culture isn't always what it's cracked up to be, but neither is sitting around doing nothing. Focus on where you want to look instead of getting buried in daily frustrations—they're both always going to be there anyway. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

We're in the middle of a fertility crisis — and much of it traces back to the food we eat, the toxins we're exposed to, and the outdated prenatal nutrition advice women are still being given. In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Lily Nichols, RDN, CDE — bestselling author of Real Food for Pregnancy, Real Food for Gestational Diabetes, and Real Food for Fertility — to talk about what women really need before, during, and after pregnancy. We cover: Why preconception nutrition matters long before you try to conceive The nutrients that actually move the needle for fertility and pregnancy outcomes How to support detox pathways safely (even during pregnancy) The truth about gestational diabetes and the flawed glucose test Why postpartum depletion is so common — and how to rebuild your nutrient stores The emotional side of nourishment: guilt, cravings, perfectionism, and self-trust How traditional cultures cared for new mothers — and what we can learn from them Why our fertility crisis is a reflection of deeper environmental and societal breakdowns This episode isn't just for pregnant women — it's for anyone who wants to understand how we've drifted so far from real nourishment and what it looks like to return to it.

COMMON SENSE BROKE DOWN SCHOOL FUNDING And the numbers are kind of eye popping when you see it all written out. Kelly Caufield joins me today at 1 to discuss the details, which you can find here.
Election integrity is crucial to the preservation of our Republic. Our founding documents make clear our government is to be led by We The People and our rights are to be protected by our Constitution. Voting is a privilege and responsibility for American citizens, and we exercise our right to lead when we vote. Non-citizen voting is illegal and diminishes the rights of legal citizens. Linda's guest in this episode is Cleta Mitchell, Founder and Chairman of the Election Integrity Network, Senior Legal Fellow at the Conservative Partnership Institute, and a pioneering leader in the Only Citizens Vote Coalition. Her extensive experience and in-depth understanding of election law provides important information on election security, current legislation, and action items. Their discussion will provide you with critical information on how to protect the integrity of your vote. ©Copyright 2025, Prosperity 101, LLC __________________________________________________________ For information about our online course and other resources visit: https://prosperity101.com To order a copy of Prosperity 101 – Job Security Through Business Prosperity® by Linda J.

Boortz wants you to meet Scout, an “interdisciplinary major” whose studies focus on “decolonizing academia and public knowledge systems,” whatever that means. Neal lets Scout speak for herself, then breaks down what this new academic language really says about the state of higher education (and your tax dollars). Spoiler: it’s not pretty.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
