Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back Andy Ostroy, political commentator, producer, and host of The Back Room with Andy Ostroy. We dig into Trump's accelerating authoritarianism, from his push to federalize D.C. police and undermine mail-in voting to his casual talk of a third term. We break down the stakes of President Zelenskyy's recent visit to the White House, Gavin Newsom's role in countering MAGA's propaganda machine, and how the DNC needs to prepare for the midterms. Andy and I also discuss Trump's growing grip on power, his ties to Epstein that continue to haunt him, and how lies, fear, and raw ambition are reshaping American politics in real time.

Join us for an inspiring conversation with Dr. Natalya Borakowski, a naturopathic physician who blends her passion for skincare and holistic wellness. From her early days in makeup artistry to becoming a holistic skin advocate, Dr. Natalya shares her journey of overcoming body dysmorphia and discovering the power of embracing every stage of life. She believes that when women feel confident in their skin, they can positively impact the world—and her approach to skincare reflects that connection between mind, body, and soul. Together, we explore the science and spirit of aging, from DNA repair and stress management to the brain-skin connection that links mood, digestion, and hormones. Dr. Natalya highlights how lifestyle choices—like quality sleep, a nourishing diet, and emotional healing—support radiant skin through life transitions such as pregnancy and menopause. This episode also introduces a three-part course to help women navigate self-image, aesthetic decisions, and the biology of aging.

Hope shares her personal journey from body insecurity and diet culture to self-acceptance and how one DIY boudoir session completely shifted her mindset.

Halima Gosai Hussein is the former chair of the Inclusive Mosque Initiative. Giles Goddard is an Anglican priest and author of Generous Faith. On paper, their traditions could hardly be more different. But their paths converged through a shared commitment to inclusion — Giles in the work of building an open and affirming church, Halima through her leadership with the Inclusive Mosque Initiative. In this conversation, they reflect on the faith they inherited, the shifts and struggles that reshaped it, and what it means to remain rooted while reimagining what faith can be. They speak with honesty about belonging and exclusion, the tensions of staying within a tradition that can wound, and the unexpected common ground they've found across theological, cultural, and historical divides. This episode is an invitation to eavesdrop on a rare kind of dialogue: one that isn't about winning an argument or defending a position, but about curiosity, respect, and shared hope for a more loving, just, and spacious spiritual landscape. Conversation starts at 15m 19s.  This conversation was recorded at Morley Radio studio.  Books, quotes, links → The creation of Nomad's thoughtful, ad-free content is entirely funded by our equally thoughtful and wonderful listeners.

Donna Simmons dares to believe in a world where young girls grow up free—free from abuse, exploitation and silence. A native of Kentucky, a state long shadowed by high rates of child abuse and a painful history of legal child marriage, Donna has become a leading voice for both justice and healing. Her advocacy was instrumental in reforming Kentucky law to end child marriage through parental consent, a victory that has inspired legal reform efforts across the U.S. and beyond.Donna's work goes far beyond policy. As a survivor herself, she knows that laws don't heal people—relationships, truth and radical compassion do. Through her powerful memoir, Ashes to Flame, she shares her journey from trauma to transformation, inviting others to find the fire within their own stories and empowering survivors to rewrite their legacy—not as victims, but as cycle-breakers, leaders and healers.Donna is also the creator and host of The Last Generation: Transforming Trauma Into Purpose, a raw and unfiltered podcast that blends lived experience with deep psychological insight. Each episode is a conversation for those daring to ask hard questions, confront inherited pain and choose a different future.With every word, Donna challenges the narrative that trauma defines us. Her voice is a catalyst for real, embodied healing—one that motivates not just awareness, but action. Whether in the halls of legislation or at the mic of her podcast, Donna Simmons is not just telling the truth. She's helping others reclaim—and rewrite—their own legacy.Learn more:https://trauma2purpose.com⁠ Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/donna.pollard.1426 and https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61571541050726Instagram- @transformingashes2flame TikTok- @ashestoflame 

Trusting God’s love when you don’t feel it, plus how skeptics strengthened Justin Brierley’s faith, and balancing reverence and honesty in prayer. Featured musical artist: Austin Stone Worship Roundtable: Does God Really Care About Me? It’s easy to say “Jesus loves me” in church or when things are going well, but how do you have the faith to say it when God feels incredibly distant? What if circumstances in your life challenge your perception of His goodness, and now you’re wondering if He’s even there? Our guests open up about difficult seasons they’ve been through, the lies they’re tempted to believe about God and themselves, and what it looks like to fight for faith. If you’re wondering if God cares — not in general, but about you in particular — you’ll be encouraged by their stories. Send Us Your Show Ideas Leave Us a Voicemail Culture: Why I’m Still a Christian When was the last time you shared your faith with a non-Christian? Justin Brierley has been conversing with atheists and agnostics (including Richard Dawkins) for years, and he’s passionate about equipping believers to examine secular arguments, test them with Scripture science, and common sense, and then be lights in our culture’s darkness. If you’re intimidated by unbelievers’ unbelief and what they have to say about it, Justin will help you find both courage and kindness for the conversation.

Divorcing a covert narcissist is not just about paperwork—it's about survival. Today on the Covert Narcissism Podcast, I sit down with Bree Sullivan-Howell, a seasoned family law attorney with over two decades of experience and the author of Crush Your Divorce and Keep Your Faith and Crush Your Comeback. Bree brings both practical wisdom from the courtroom and heartfelt guidance for the personal and spiritual battles that survivors face. In this powerful conversation, Bree and I dive deep into: Why narcissists view their spouse and children as possessions—and what happens when you dare to break free. The reality of post-separation abuse and how it shows up in custody battles and court filings. How legal abuse works—and why narcissists weaponize the legal system to keep control. Practical steps for documenting emotional abuse in ways that hold weight in court. The critical importance of building a support team—attorney, therapist, coach, and trusted allies—so you're not fighting this battle alone. How to become a safe haven for your children while navigating accusations of parental alienation. Why it's essential to avoid clinical labels in court and instead focus on facts and behaviors. Bree also shares her faith-based perspective on reclaiming worth, hope, and freedom—reminding us that there is life after narcissism. If you're in the thick of a high-conflict divorce, this episode is a roadmap of both strategy and encouragement. You'll walk away with clarity on what to expect, how to prepare, and the confidence that you are not alone in this fight.

Ryan is the host of ‘The Last American Vagabond’ podcast and one of the leading independent journalists in the country. Today we delve into the big picture tyranny transforming America into a digital surveillance state, the tactics and the culprits. Of course both parties are to blame, but why can’t people see it? George Washington warned us: "However [political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion."

In this episode of Not Today Cancer – Conversations After the Bell, host Jen Delvaux sits down with Tiffany Roth, a breast cancer survivor who opens up about her powerful journey from diagnosis through recovery and into survivorship. Tiffany shares the emotional impact of hearing the words “you have cancer,” the difficult decisions she faced during treatment, and how she embraced lifestyle changes to support her healing. Jen and Tiffany discuss the often-overlooked emotional toll of cancer, the anxiety that can follow treatment, and the strength found in community and shared experiences. Tiffany also reveals how her blog became both an outlet and a purpose—helping others navigate their own diagnoses. Whether you're currently in treatment, post-treatment, or supporting someone you love, Tiffany's story is a reminder that survivorship is more than just healing physically—it's about finding connection, purpose, and a new way forward.

Marc and Jessica serendipitously met at our last LA meet up and he was kind enough to come on and impart some amazing perspectives and advice. Marc is an actor, comedian, and storyteller whose voice and presence are instantly recognizable. You've seen him as the ever-dry Kevin on Brooklyn Nine-Nine, the delightfully smug Shawn on The Good Place, Trevor Nelsson on Parks and Rec, and most recently as Richard Spier in Netflix's The Baby-Sitters Club. But beyond the suits and comedic timing, Marc brings a rare depth and honesty to the table—and that's exactly what made this conversation so special.Marc and his wife run the incredible nonprofit, The Detroit Creativity Project, which brings the life-changing power of improv to middle and high school students in Detroit—completely free of charge.

Which is why we're so happy to know Jessica Zucker, author of Normalize It, a psychologist, and a parent. She gracefully navigates the tricky balance of educating kids about the difficult issues without dumping our own baggage on them.

Have you ever wondered, Does God really hear me? Does He truly see me? This week on The Love Offering Podcast, I had the joy of talking with Vivian Mabuni, co-host of the God Hears Her Podcast and author, speaker, and Bible teacher. Together, we unpack what it means to be fully known, fully loved, and deeply heard by the God who never overlooks us. Vivian vulnerably shares her own story of wrestling with God’s voice, navigating seasons of disappointment, and discovering that even when God says “no,” His love for us doesn’t change. If you’ve ever felt unseen, unheard, or unloved, this conversation will remind you of the tender truth that God hears you. I can’t wait for you to be encouraged by this powerful reminder of God’s faithfulness. Share it with a friend who needs to be reminded today: She is seen. She is heard. She is loved.
