Podcasts about conversations

The Mango Mussolini had his worst week ever and we couldn't be more delighted. The fallout from the February 9th Mazar's letter firing Trump as a client has snowballed into something much worse for the former president as a judge ruled that he and his adult children must now sit for depositions. And if that weren't bad enough, a Washington DC judge has paved the way for a series of civil lawsuits holding Trump accountable for the January 6th insurrection to continue. Elie Honig joins Michael to divine how much legal rope Trump has to maneuver and how close we are to seeing an indictment.

FDNY Firefighter Experienced Severe Trauma: How Cooking Is His Salvation. For many first responders, the uniform becomes both a source of pride and a shield, one that often hides pain, grief, and trauma the public never sees. For this veteran FDNY firefighter and U.S. Air Force veteran, a lifetime of service came with losses so profound that few could endure them without lasting scars. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms.

You replay every ‘what if' for the rest of your life.” Years later, tragedy struck again. His brother, Michael Bonanno, a retired FDNY firefighter, died by suicide in 2012. The loss exposed the unspoken mental health crisis that continues to affect firefighters and other first responders across the country.

As if those personal losses were not enough, his career culminated at one of the darkest chapters in American history, working at Ground Zero during the 9/11 attacks in New York City. The physical danger was immediate, but the emotional toll would last decades. “You don't leave the pile unchanged,” he said. “You carry those images, those smells, those sounds. They stay with you.” How Cooking Became His Salvation Like many firefighters, he struggled in silence. Trauma accumulated quietly, from the firehouse to family life, from loss to loss. But unexpectedly, healing began not in therapy rooms or training halls, but in the kitchen. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms.

Cam Cooksey hosts a relaxed, chat-driven episode of Flow that moves organically between audience interaction, personal reflection, and updates across the Badlands Media community. The episode unfolds as Cam responds directly to live comments, touching on faith, discernment, personal experiences, and questions raised by viewers. Discussion includes reflections on current events as they intersect with belief, trust, and perspective, alongside lighter moments, humor, and shout-outs to regulars in the chat. Cam also shares updates on upcoming shows, collaborations, and scheduling, weaving announcements naturally into the conversation.

After Mazars, Donald Trump's longtime accounting firm sent him a letter stating they would no longer represent him, nor could they standby the accuracy of his financial information, we're witnessing a full blown meltdown in Trumpworld. This could be what finally brings him to ruin. Talking Feds host Harry Litman joins to help Michael translate what it all means.

IMPERSONATORS AND THE DEATH OF IDEALISM Colleague Tanya Branigan. The conversation highlights the strange phenomenon of historical impersonators, including one of Lin Biao, the general who was Mao's successor before being branded a traitor. Branigan explains that Lin's sudden vilification shattered the idealism of many Red Guards, causing them to question Mao's infallibility. The segment also discusses reunions of "educated youth" sent to the countryside. While many suffered, groups now meet to reminisce, filtering traumatic memories through a "memory bump" of their adolescence, contrasting their past struggles and camaraderie with the perceived moral emptiness of modern China.

For peace, and a peaceful transition in Venezuela, without innocent victims. For believers to trust not in man, but in Jesus Christ, and remember that His kingdom is above any human kingdom. That God may protect His church, the evangelists, pastors, and those who visit the sick in Venezuela, as armed groups are intimidating citizens 24 hrs a day in many parts of the country. Conversation with the Podcast Ninja I met with the Podcast Ninja again the other day to catch up on our respective hunting seasons, basketball teams, and Indiana’s best-in-the-country college football team. We took some time to discuss the blessings (and possible pitfalls) of praying for the persecuted. After our conversation which was recorded in the middle of the week, I came back and updated everyone on a couple of things that were discussed… The hunt was fun, but no meat! The Podcast Ninja informed me that he did talk to his kids about Hebrews 13:3 at dinner Indiana University rolls over Oregon (gave me a chance to watch Thunder comeback) Now let's take a look at this coming week's Pray for China (PrayforChina.us) cities… https://chinacall.substack.com/p/pray-for-china-jan-12-18-2026 Thank you for listening!

In this new episode of Weekend Conversations, we're host Robert Glazer and producer Mick Sloan discuss a year filled with rejection, and why that rejection also led to success. Robert and Mick discuss why rejection is necessary to reaching goals, how to cope with and learn from failure, the problem our culture has with perfectionism, and why that perfectionism stands in our way.

In this episode, I sit down with human-connection expert and broadcaster Riaz Meghji, author of Every Conversation Counts: The 5 Habits of Human Connection That Build Extraordinary Relationships. It's a great book that I highly recommend. I have the audio and hardcopy versions. We unpack why so many people feel "connected" online—but still lonely in real life. We discuss loneliness and isolation as a modern "social pandemic," and ways to build trust and deepen relationships through everyday conversations. Conversations influence your nervous system and your immune system which influences how you heal. This is a missing piece in the world of health and healing. How we interact with others and the world via conversations changes physiology. You will learn a lot and enjoy this episode.  Link to his book here His website link

When markets feel loud, smart investors start asking better questions — not panicking.

At a recent event in support of Dharma Moon's Yearlong Buddhist Studies program on January 6th, Ethan was joined by the great Roshi Joan Halifax, to discuss the practice, history and theory of Engaged Buddhism. Why is this integrated approach to the dharma so crucial now? Ethan begins with an impassioned plea after the ICE murder of the Renee Good in Minneapolis to come together as sangha and practice engaged dharma this year. And every time the thought arises "I could do something but it won't really make any difference," please label that thought thinking. Roshi Joan Halifax is Founder, Abbot, and Head Teacher of Upaya, a center which focused on Engaged Buddhism in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Her vision for the Zen Center embraces comprehensive Buddhist studies, meditation, service, dharma art, and environmental action as integrated paths cultivating peace and interconnectedness. She is also the author of multiple books including Standing at The Edge and Being With Dying. In 2025, with your subscriptions, we were able to release more episodes than any previous year.

A shocking discussion unfolds as new revelations point to billions of taxpayer dollars potentially lost to fraud, mismanagement, and political negligence. From Minnesota's Somali daycare scandal to California's homelessness, crime, and unchecked spending, the story is growing — and so are the questions.As officials like Governor Tim Walz, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and Governor Gavin Newsom face mounting scrutiny, Americans are left wondering:

On our latest episode of the podcast, we chat about all the action in Weatherfield (and beyond!)  between the 5th and the 9th January 2026 (Episodes #11,767 - 11,772). It's the telly event we've been waiting for for a year now - an explosive crossover between Corrie and Emmeradale as two worlds collide and an almighty pile-up in the Pennines. We already gave our immediate reaction to Corriedale earlier this week, but what did we make of the episode  leading up to it, and did the quality continue for the rest of the week as Corrie switched to a daily, half hour format? We've got the Platts' new baby to discuss, the prospect of Debbie being sent down for dangerous driving and of course, the aftermath of Theo's chilling actions inside the fiery minibus - what a week! After Street Talk, we head over to the Kabin, where we try our hardest to persuade ourselves that we don't REALLY need the latest piece of Rovers history to make its way onto ITV Reloved as well as previewing a few upcoming Corrie-adjacent events that fans might want to get tickets for. We round off the show with all your feedback on Corriedale. Street Talk - 00:11:48 The Kabin - 03:14:08 Feedback - 03:23:23

A rotating group of Badlands Media hosts drop in and out of this late-night OnlyLands episode for an unscripted, free-flowing broadcast driven by chat interaction and real-time reactions. The conversation moves loosely between current events, personal anecdotes, humor, and commentary sparked directly by audience questions and super chats. Hosts riff on news headlines, cultural absurdities, and ongoing Badlands narratives, with the tone shifting naturally between serious discussion and playful banter. No formal agenda guides the night, allowing topics to evolve organically as different voices join the stream and steer the conversation in new directions. The episode leans heavily into community participation, inside jokes, and spontaneous exchanges, capturing the after-hours energy that defines OnlyLands as a space for relaxed conversation rather than structured programming.

Mea Culpa takes an inside look at alleged violent insurrectionist Ryan Nichols who has been detained for over a year pending trial. It's a chilling portrait of a man prepared to kill for Donald Trump's lies. Later, Michael welcomes back Frank Figliuzzi to discuss the larger threat assessment from right wing extremists and who's likely to talk amongst Trump's inner circle. 

Description:What happens after the dream you built your life around ends? In today's tender and searching conversation, Jen and Amy sit down with acclaimed novelist Ben Markovits to talk about his forthcoming book, The Rest of Our Lives—a story that lingers in the quiet spaces of midlife, marriage, parenting, friendship, and the quiet reckonings that arrive when the future you imagined no longer fits. The book is so spectacular, it has been shortlisted as a finalist for the illustrious Booker Prize. Together, the trio explores what happens when the life you worked toward doesn't quite deliver what you expected—and how that reckoning ripples through family, intimacy, and identity. Ben speaks honestly about ambition, and the grief of letting go of former selves, while also naming the surprising beauty found in showing up for the people you love in ordinary, unglamorous moments. He and Jen talk about the similarities between the fictional story that he wrote and the real-life account that Jen penned in Awake.  This episode is for anyone standing in the middle of their life, caring for children or parents (or both), wondering how to hold disappointment without becoming hardened—and how to love the life in front of you without pretending it's easy. It's a conversation about endurance, tenderness, and the brave, ongoing work of choosing one another as the years keep unfolding. If you've ever asked yourself, Is this really it?—and then quietly hoped the answer might still be no, not yet—this one is for you. Thought-provoking Quotes: “The author of Anatomy of a Murder said that writing a novel is like driving on a mountain road late at night. You should know where you're trying to get to, and you should be able to see 30 yards in advance.  I guess I have some sense of where I want to get to and then I spend a lot of time watching the next 30 yards.” – Ben Markovits “I like to write about characters who feel like the place they have made for themselves in the world doesn't totally express their sense of who they are.” – Ben Markovits I love the way you write all the backstories of everything because I'm someone who wants to ask 20 questions about what was the furniture in the in-laws beach house like and how did that shape the family dynamic that he married into? Which if you, if you ask all those questions, you sound a little crazy. But actually, you answered all of my questions as I was reading. – Amy Hardin “At a certain point in marriage, you have your fingerprints all over each other.” – Ben Markovits “I love when characters are human, flawed, curious, confused, just really working out their own story. I'm drawn to stories like that that aren't necessarily tidy.” – Jen Hatmaker Resources Mentioned in This Episode: The Rest of Our Lives: A Novel by Ben Markovits – https://amzn.to/4qanlhM The Booker Prizes | Ben Markovits – https://thebookerprizes.com/the-booker-library/authors/ben-markovits Anatomy of a Murder by Robert Traver – https://amzn.to/3YAUTKc Awake: A Memoir by Jen Hatmaker – https://amzn.to/4qaARlw Phineas Redux by Anthony Trollope – https://amzn.to/4qiOPSN Starting Out by Ben Markovits – https://www.faber.co.uk/journal/faber-announces-the-acquisition-of-a-new-novel-by-ben-markovits/#:~:text=It%20will%20be%20published%20in,' New York Times – out 12/21 Atlantic Excerpt –  The Rest of Our Lives Book Tour – https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Rest-of-Our-Lives/Ben-Markovits/9781668231562 Guest's Links: Website - https://www.simonandschuster.com/authors/Ben-Markovits/250699726 Connect with Jen!Jen's Website - https://jenhatmaker.com/ Jen's Instagram - https://instagram.com/jenhatmakerJen's Twitter - https://twitter.com/jenHatmaker/ Jen's Facebook - https://facebook.com/jenhatmakerJen's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/JenHatmaker The For the Love Podcast is presented by Audacy.  To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

She bases this off a widespread societal refusal to listen to evidence, accept reason and consider dissenting views, which has the effect of reducing common freedoms for citizens across the Western world. Melanie Phillips is a British public commentator with a distinguished career in journalism. She began her professional journey writing for The Guardian and New Statesman and currently contributes to The Times, The Jerusalem Post, and The Jewish Chronicle, focusing on political and social issues. Phillips has also appeared as a panelist on BBC Radio 4's The Moral Maze and BBC One's Question Time.

Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back Maria Cardona, Democratic strategist, CNN commentator, Principal at the Dewey Square Group, and founder of Latinovations, for an honest conversation about the ICE shooting that killed U.S. citizen Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis on Wednesday. We break down the video evidence contradicting federal claims, the Trump administration's rapid misinformation campaign, and what the killing reveals about unchecked federal power, reckless ICE recruitment, and the normalization of state violence. We also examine the broader implications for civil rights, public trust in law enforcement, and the weaponization of “domestic terrorism” labels. Most importantly, we explore why this moment marks a dangerous turning point for American democracy and accountability itself.

Synopsis:  In a powerful tribute to a fearless leader, friends and collaborators share stories of Alice Wong's unwavering commitment to centering disabled voices and challenging systemic inequality in all its forms.This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donateDescription: Alice Wong lived longer than she expected, but not long enough. The celebrated disability activist lived by the principle that disability justice is integral to all liberation movements, and centered disabled stories with the Disability Visibility Project. When Alice Wong died on November 14 at the age of 51, people across social movements shared their grief and awe for her work, such as her bestselling 2022 memoir, “Year of the Tiger: An Activist's Life”. She has been called an oracle, visionary, unapologetic and fearless, and our guests, Wong's dear friends and collaborators, are committed to lifting up her legacy. Sandy Ho is the Executive Director of the Disability & Philanthropy Forum and partner with Alice Wong and Mia Mingus in the Access is Love campaign. She was asked by Alice Wong to post her letter after she passed, where Wong writes “. . . our wisdom is incisive and unflinching.” Steven Thrasher is an acclaimed journalist, professor and author of “The Viral Underclass: The Human Toll When Inequality & Disease Collide”. He was suspended from teaching classes after speaking out — as Wong also did — on Palestine. Join us as we celebrate Alice Wong and ask what is the work to be done when it comes to healthcare and civil rights for disabled people. Plus a commentary from Laura on imagining the next 100 years.“A lot of Alice's advocacy was focused around the systems that force disabled people to be at the margins . . . Whether it is the Black Lives Matter movement or the pandemic, we see the ways in which our society and political systems respond, and not in ways that prioritize those who are least privileged and have the least amount of power.” - Sandy Ho“I remember talking to [Alice Wong] about the ways she had been conditioned as a disabled Asian American woman to try to accept crumbs, to not complain, to be very docile. I thought that she was really brilliant in bridging together not just Asian American communities, but queer communities, LGBTQ communities, all the communities where your body is made to feel like it doesn't belong.” - Steven ThrasherGuests:• Sandy Ho: Executive Director, Disability & Philanthropy Forum• Steven Thrasher: Daniel Renberg Chair of Social Justice in Reporting, Northwestern University; Author, The Viral Underclass & The Overseer Class *Recommended books:“Year of the Tiger: An Activist's Life” by Alice Wong, *Get the book“The Viral Underclass: The Human Toll When Inequality and Disease Collide” by Steven Thrasher, *Get the book(*Bookshop is an online bookstore with a mission to financially support local, independent bookstores.

Join Chad Messerly and Jason Hyde in a conversation about how teens can stay excited for God's way of life.

Send us a textWe're kicking off Season 7 by talking about the thing clients circle for weeks — the topic that never quite gets said. In this episode, we break down how avoidance shows up in therapy, why it's often protection (not resistance), and what it's guarding underneath. From over-explaining and joking to staying “productive” in session, we unpack the clinical and human reasons people steer away from certain truths.We also explore what happens when the avoided conversation finally enters the room — how clarity increases, the therapeutic alliance deepens, and real movement begins. If you've ever felt stuck in therapy (or noticed yourself dodging a topic), this episode is a reminder: avoidance is information.✨ Subscribe to VIP for exclusive bonus content, deeper clinical conversations, and behind-the-scenes insight all season long.Because the conversation you're avoiding might be the one that finally lets you exhale.Support the showDisclaimer: This podcast is for informational and educational purposes only and is not a substitute for therapy or professional mental health care.Want more?

In this deeply moving episode of Anchored by the Sword, I sit down with author and mama Joy Scott, whose story is marked by faith, loss, healing, and unwavering hope. Joy is the author of Flow: Keeping Your Heart Alive When Life Hurts, released this past September—a book born out of unimaginable pain and profound encounters with God's presence.Joy shares her powerful journey of walking through abuse, divorce, and the devastating loss of her four-year-old son, Joseph, to brain cancer. Through it all, she has learned how to keep her heart open, tender, and anchored in God instead of closing off in survival mode.We talk about: • What it means to truly guard your heart (Proverbs 4:23) • How to stay connected to God in the middle of deep grief • Why God is not the author of sickness or loss—and how His love carries us through • How to process pain honestly without getting stuck in it • Why forgiveness is about freedom, not forgetting • How Psalm 139 gives us a blueprint for healingJoy's message is clear: your pain does not disqualify you—it becomes the place where God meets you.Whether you're walking through loss, betrayal, heartbreak, or just trying to survive a season that didn't go the way you hoped, this episode will remind you that God is still near, still good, and still writing your story.Bio:Joy Scott is an author, speaker, and certified teacher. She carries a burning desire to influence those who are stuck by sharing her story and the obstacles she has overcome. Encouraging others to obtain healing, freedom, and purpose is her life message. Joy resides outside New Orleans with her husband and two sons.Anchor Verses:Isaiah 61Proverbs 4:23Psalm 139Connect with Joy:Website: https://www.joyscott.meIG: https://www.instagram.com/joy_scottFB: https://www.facebook.com/joyevettescott/***We love hearing from you!

Employers sit at the center of the U.S. health system as the primary funders of coverage for more than 150 million Americans, yet they struggle with rising costs, fragmented vendors, and uneven outcomes. In this episode, we talk with Dan Mendelson, MPP, CEO of Morgan Health at JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Founder and former CEO of Avalere Health. We explore his journey from health policy to now leading Morgan Health’s efforts to improve the quality, affordability and equity of employer-sponsored healthcare. We’ll learn how Morgan Health evaluates the employer market, where they’re placing investment bets, and how they are testing new care models inside JPMorgan’s own benefit. We then turn to Washington: Dan shares his take on the policy currents that matter most for employers and innovators over the next few years.

Common sense America First thinking is foreign to most politicians and Government officials. COL (RET) Douglas MacGregor not only understands it, but provides an American First commentary that exposes the many half baked policies and planning of our Government that has forgotten the people. We too often look to Presidents to lead us, yet too frequently Presidents become another cog in the wheel of the political machine, consumed by personal power and empire building. War and policies reveal the direction of the government and its orientation towards the people. Unfortunately for us at the juncture, neither war nor policies are changing to improve the day to day lives everyday America; America First is by name only. Col (RET) MacGregor digs in, to a provide perspective and commentary on many of the deeper challenges our nation is now facing and a pathway ahead to build an America First solution from the ground up. #BardsFM #Leadership #AmericaFirst Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com EnviroKlenz Air Purification, promo code BARDS to save 10%: www.enviroklenz.com EMPShield protect your vehicles and home.

Andrew Yang returns to the podcast for a conversation about the chaos of modern life, his no-phone parties aimed at reviving real human hookups in a world that's stopped partying, and his new phone service that literally pays you to doomscroll less. They discuss future of the Forward Party, how getting a few seats in Congress could change everything, how the terrifying speed of AI quietly erasing jobs will inevitably lead to some sort of universal basic income, why an extreme winner-take-all economy will only make things more dystopian, how he tries to stay positive in the face of so much uncertainty, and why this era might be a great time to become a cult leader. Get 3 months of free wireless by going to https://noblemobile.com/yang ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsor Links: - Quest offers 100+ lab tests to empower you to have more control over your health journey.

Welcome to Exponential View, the show where I explore how exponential technologies such as AI are reshaping our future.
