Members of the foreign policy world have talked a lot about great-power competition over the last decade. But no one can entirely agree on the contours of today's competition. Whether it's a battle of autocracies and democracies. Or revisionists and status quo powers. Or whether, as the realists would argue, it's just states doing what states do.  S. C. M. Paine, a longtime professor of strategy and policy at the U.S. Naval War College, sees something else going on. To her, the great-power competition we talk about today is just the latest example of the centuries-old tension between maritime and continental powers. For maritime powers—such as, for most of its history, the United States—money and trade serve as the basis of influence. And that leads them to promote rules and order. Continental powers—such as Russia most clearly and China in most but not all ways—focus their security objectives on territory, which they seek to defend, and control, and expand. From this divide rises two very different visions of global order. It also, Paine argues in a new essay in Foreign Affairs, explains the basic drivers of today's great-power competition. But as she looks at more recent developments, Paine lays out an additional concern. The United States has long been an exemplar of maritime power. But it is starting to behave in ways that suggest a shift away from the maritime strategies that have served it so well. Paine's focus on the contest between land and sea makes clear the stakes of that shift.

In this episode, we're joined by Leanne Pompeani — the 2025 TCS Sydney Marathon (Australian) Champion. Leanne shares how running became an anchor for her mental health, her transition from soccer into elite distance running, and what it means to show up as a graceful competitor. In March 2025, she ran the fastest debut marathon by an Australian. She backed it up with a win at the Gold Coast Half Marathon in July, before claiming the Australian title at the TCS Sydney Marathon in August. Leanne reflects on what she learned from each of these performances, and why she feels most at home on the roads and cross-country courses rather than the track. This conversation is about showing up, embracing the unknown, and discovering confidence through the courage to compete.

Homily Title: Reconstructing Prayer: From a Contest to a  Doorway While many of the ideas and practices handed down to us about God and the church may have shifted, there is something about Jesus we still find compellingly beautiful. Often, after letting go of what wasn't working, we struggle to find a way forward that shapes our lives to mirror the Beloved Community of God.    Brandon Kinder continues our Fall Vision series, Reconstructing Rhythms, by offering several practices for allowing prayer to be a doorway bringing us closer to both our authentic self and the One whose Divine Image we bear. [John 21:1-14]   Reflection  How might the purpose of prayer seem different now than when we were younger? When do you feel the most connected to the divine? Try not to look at your phone right now.

Josie Moore grew up in the valley town of Westfield, Massachusetts with a voice that wouldn't work and a brain filled to bursting. Paranoid by the world and abandoned by those around her, she turned to art in her time of hiding. When she was scared, she wrote about it. When she cried, she drew comforting pictures. With the inability to pinpoint and process her own emotions, she used art and storytelling as her communication, turning her fear into something beautiful. Nowadays, she can finally leave her bedroom, but never without a sketchbook by her side. She attends the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth in hopes of getting her BFA in Illustration. She spends her days doodling elves, bears, and silly little faeries and nights writing, planning, and…hopefully writing some more. Finally having an outlet to put all her obsessive, creative energy, she dreams of one day showing even the deepest crevices of her mind with her odd love stories and twisted mysteries. The Contest, one of the most prestigious writing and illustrating competitions in the world, is currently in its 43rd year and is judged by some of the premier names in speculative fiction. The Writers of the Future Contest judges include, Tim Powers (author of On Stranger Tides), Kevin J. Anderson and Brian Herbert (Dune prequel series), Robert J. Sawyer (The Oppenheimer Alternative), Brandon Sanderson (Mistborn series, The Stormlight Archive), Larry Niven (Ringworld), Orson Scott Card (Ender's Game), Nnedi Okorafor (Who Fears Death), Hugh Howey (Wool), and Katherine Kurtz (Deryni series) to name a few. Nathan Deiwert, an illustrator led by a desire to craft worlds, creates imaginative creatures and characters that coincide with one another. Deiwert is driven to come up with new ways to develop familiar concepts in the form of paintings, digital illustrations, and visual development. From fear-inducing entities to happy moments, he creates work with thought and explores new ideas. For Deiwert, active research is a considerable portion of the process of the creation of his art; be it artistic influences past and present, anatomy or cultures. His favorite influences are presently Frank Frazetta, Norman Rockwell, N.C. Wyeth and Maxfield Parrish.

Munaf Manji, Dave Essler and Mackenzie Rivers talk NFL contests for Week 10. NFL Week 10 brought the trio of Munaf Manji, Dave Essler, and Mackenzie Rivers together once again on RJ Bell's Dream Preview to dissect contest standings and serve up their best bets. After Week 9's modest 1–2 showing, optimism was high for a bounce back. Munaf opened with updates from the Circa Survivor, Circa Grandissimo, and SuperContest leaderboards: 288 eliminations last week left 1,769 Survivor entries alive, each now worth an implied $10,587, while 11 Grandissimo survivors chase over $627,000 apiece. The Circa Millions and SuperContest “top five” consensus picks continued to flounder at below 40% against the spread — a reminder that fading public favorites remains profitable. Shifting to picks, Dave “Uncle Dave” Essler led off with the Rams (+4.5) against the banged-up 49ers, citing Los Angeles' superior defense, healthier roster, and underrated Matthew Stafford performance from their previous matchup. Mackenzie agreed, noting the Niners' injuries and questioning San Francisco's home-field edge in a rivalry where both fanbases travel. Munaf joined the chorus, backing the Rams and highlighting Stafford's MVP-caliber form. Mackenzie's own Week 10 best bet landed on the Denver Broncos (-9) over a weary Raiders squad that had just played a 70-minute overtime thriller. His trend-based handicap pointed to 31 ATS losers in 41 similar short-week, post-OT situations, and he praised Bo Nix's steady climb to mid-tier quarterback status behind Denver's elite line play and defense. Dave and Munaf concurred, calling it a bad situational spot for Las Vegas and predicting a double-digit Denver win. Munaf's best bet was Detroit (-7.5) over Washington, framing it as a “get-right” opportunity after the Lions' stumble versus Minnesota, with Jared Goff's balanced offense poised to torch a Commanders defense that has surrendered 25+ points in four straight. Both co-hosts agreed, pointing to Washington's injuries and lost season. For Survivor contests, the panel leaned Denver, Detroit, and Pittsburgh as safe Week 10 options. Dave endorsed the underdog Steelers (+3) against the Chargers, citing Mike Tomlin's historic ATS success, while Mackenzie doubled down on Denver for his own Survivor pick. Wrapping up, Munaf reminded listeners of Pregame's new College Basketball Contest (with $1,000 in potential prizes) and the “RUSHING50” promo for discounted football subscriptions. The crew signed off with their usual banter about Twitter bans and contest momentum, confident Week 10's sharper reads — Rams grit, Broncos' altitude edge, Lions' rebound — would set a winning tone heading into midseason.

Without a doubt, the biggest threat to ancient Israel's worship of Yahweh was the rival demon-god Baal, regarded as the chief of all Canaanite deities. The allure of Baal worship was the promise of profit and prosperity. I've chosen four words that tell the story of the showdown between the prophet Elijah and the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel, and frame our role in modern culture.I. Courage (vv. 16-17)II. Contest (vv. 20-40)III. Confrontation (v. 21)IV. Cause (v. 36)Talk with God: Meditate on Matthew 6:24 and ask the Lord to reveal the areas of your life in which you're trying to “serve two masters.”Talk with others: Encourage a fellow believer to keep their eyes on Jesus, no matter what they're walking through this week.Talk with kids: Why was it wrong for Saul to make the burnt offering?

In this hour of The Contest Show, hosts Matt Brown and Mike Somich are joined by Derek Stevens, Founder and CEO of Circa Resort and Casino, and Jeff Benson, Circa Sports Director of Operations, to talk about the Circa Millions, Survivor, and Grandissimo contests.
