On today's episode, CORINNE FISHER and KRYSTYNA HUTCHINSON open their email inbox to hear from a snooping girlfriend who found something sus. C&K then chat about knowing where you're at in your cycle and anti-LGBTQ politicians before welcoming stand-up comedian, GODFREY, to the studio. The trio discuss growing up with Nigerian immigrant parents, the heyday of MTV's Spring Break, coming up in the 90s NYC comedy scene, the cognitive dissonance of being a Cosby fan, and getting heckled by women who wanna f*ck you.Follow GODFREY on IG @⁠GodfreyComic ⁠Follow CORINNE on IG @⁠PhilanthropyGal⁠Follow KRYSTYNA on IG @⁠KrystynaHutch⁠Follow ERIC on IG @⁠EricFretty ⁠ Want to write into the show?

On this week's episode of The Whiskey Trip, Big Chief heads back to Houston to sit down with Master Distiller Julian Giraldo and Brand Manager Mike Cosby of Giant Texas Distillers. Julian isn't just any guest—he was the very first to appear on the show—so it was only fitting to bring him back to share another round of stories and pours. We start with Giant Texas' standard 90-proof expression, then move into the University of Houston Cougars commemorative bottling with notes of kettle corn, toasted sugar, and just the right amount of spice. From there, the lineup takes off:     •    A five-year-old honey infused bourbon at 105.7 proof, crafted through a unique process of resting honey in a wet bourbon barrel for six months before finishing the whiskey for another eight.     •    A maple infused rye whiskey at 118 proof, aged in an empty maple rye whiskey barrel from Seldom Seen Farm, marrying decadent maple character with rye spice.     •    And finally, a Texas brandy made from Orange Muscat and Trebbiano grapes from the Panhandle, aged seven years in a toasted barrel and bottled at 117.3 proof—a perfect palate cleanser with notes of toasted marshmallow and bright citrus. Along the way, Julian and Mike share stories of traveling together, building a community of whiskey lovers, and carrying forward the true meaning of Tejas—“friendship.” Julian also offers a sneak peek at a future American Single Malt, showcasing the distillery's range and diversity. This episode is a perfect mix of tradition, innovation, and Texas pride—just like Giant Texas itself. So pour yourself a glass, settle in, and come along for the ride on this stop of The Whiskey Trip.

Welcome to the Summer Break Rewind!While The Conversation takes a short summer break, I'll be sharing fan-favourite episodes from Season Three, along with brilliant conversations from Page One: The Writer's Podcast. Season Four returns in September until then, enjoy the rewind!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------In this episode of 'Coffee Break', New York Times Bestselling author of Blacktop Wasteland, Razorblade Tears and All The Sinners Bleed, S.A.

A dangerous debt. Secrets about to ignite . . . and a family consumed by flames.Roman Carruthers left the smoke and fire of his family's crematory business behind in his hometown of Jefferson Run, Virginia. He is enjoying a life of shallow excess as a financial adviser in Atlanta until he gets a call from his sister, Neveah, telling him their father is in a coma after a hit-and-run accident. When Roman goes home, he learns the accident may not be what it seems. His brother, Dante, is deeply in debt to dangerous, ruthless criminals. And Roman is willing to do anything to protect his family. Anything.A financial whiz with a head for numbers and a talent for making his clients rich, Roman must use all his skills to try to save his family while dealing with a shadow that has haunted them all for twenty years: the disappearance of their mother when Roman and his siblings were teenagers. It's a mystery that Neveah, who has sacrificed so much of her life to hold her family together, is determined to solve once and for all.As fate and chance and heartache ignite their lives, the Carruthers family must pull together to survive or see their lives turn to ash.

Zwei Standup-Comedy-Legenden in der Gegenüberstellung. Auf der einen Seite: Richard Pryor – grenzüberschreitender Unruhestifter, sprachlich explizit, zum Schreien (komisch), selbstzerstörerisch und brutal ehrlich. Auf der anderen Seite: Bill Cosby – Geschichtenerzähler, Amerikas Dad, Sitcom-Titan, (scheinbarer) Saubermann und multipler Vergewaltiger. Wie revolutionierten sie die US-amerikanische Kultur und Comedy-Landschaft, sowohl schwarz als auch weiß und womöglich sogar farbenblind? Wie stehen Simon & Sebastian zu den beiden Personen? Und im Fall des verurteilten Verbrechers die alte Frage: Wo, wenn es sie überhaupt gibt, verläuft die Grenze zwischen Werk und Künstler? Diese Folge ist Teil 3 der Rückspultasten-Reise quer durch den Humor vergangener Jahrzehnte. Wobei: Ernster könnte es kaum zugehen.

The boys are back. Quan is back. And joining the crew this season: Longhorn legend Eric Metcalf. We're kicking things off with our first gut-check season preview for the newly minted No. 1 Texas Longhorns. What should the expectations really be for Sark and Arch? How can the new starting QB handle the spotlight of stardom? We also dive into the staff shakeup: replacing Coach Choice while welcoming back Coach Akina in a major return. Get hyped, get locked in, and let's gear up for an unforgettable Texas football season.

A powerful community tribute to Malcolm‑Jamal Warner—anchored by Candace Kelley, Troy W. Harris Jr., and Layne Fontes—centers on the legacy Malcolm insisted we carry: that in 2025, new media lets us shape our own narrative. The conversation spans authenticity, code‑switching, cultural impact, and collective healing, with moving appearances from actor Lamman Rucker and Isaac Hayes III (Fanbase). Rucker recalls 40 years of brotherhood, stage work, and the discipline behind Malcolm's artistry—from the National Black Theatre Festival to late‑night poetry sets. Isaac shares how Malcolm's example—fitness, stretching, and integrity—quietly mentored him and why platforms like Not All Hood are vital for Black storytelling and ownership. The team revisits viral Buteco jam sessions where Malcolm lived on the bass, plus memories from press runs (Sway, Breakfast Club), and live callers reflect on why the Cosby era felt like home. This episode is part celebration, part blueprint: take the mic, build platforms, and program the algorithm with love, excellence, and truth. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Not All Hood (NAH) podcast takes a look at the lived experiences and identities of Black people in America. Infused with pop culture, music, and headlining news, the show addresses the evolution, exhilaration, and triumphs of being rooted in a myriad of versions of Black America.   Hosted by Malcolm-Jamal Warner, and Candace O.Kelley   Executive Producer: Layne Fontes Producer & Creative Director: Troy W. Harris, Jr.

How should we look at people who once attempted to associate themselves with his image?

This week Brian Copeland welcomes comedians Brian Malow and Monique Marvez for a wide-ranging discussion on politics, culture, and society. The episode opens with light banter about yoga and aging, then quickly shifts to deeper topics, including:Political Discourse & Divisions: The gang discusses the polarization in American politics, referencing Michelle Obama's “When they go low, we go high” philosophy. They debate whether it's effective to take the high road or if it's time for Democrats to “fight in the gutter” as Republicans do. Both guests express frustration with the current state of political discourse and the erosion of norms.Generational & Cultural Shifts: Monique Marvez shares her perspective on generational change, noting that younger people are tired of the ongoing political battles and have a broader, less divisive worldview. She argues that the internet has leveled the playing field for women and minorities, but also acknowledges its role in amplifying negative voices.Women, Power, and Social Change: The conversation delves into the challenges women face in achieving equality, both from societal structures and internalized biases among women themselves. The panel discusses the “queen bee” syndrome and the need for women to support each other to effect real change.Denial, Blame, and Enabling: The group explores how denial and scapegoating play out in politics and personal life, from vaccine hesitancy to excusing the behavior of powerful men. They discuss high-profile cases involving Trump, Epstein, and Cosby, and the tendency for people to double down on denial rather than confront uncomfortable truths.Science, Vaccines, and Misinformation: Brian Malow, as a science communicator, explains the significance of vaccine technology and the dangers of anti-vaccine rhetoric. The panel laments the spread of misinformation and the consequences for public health, referencing outbreaks of preventable diseases.Personal Stories & Humor: Throughout, the guests share personal anecdotes from their careers in comedy and media, reflecting on the challenges and absurdities they've encountered. The episode ends with plugs for upcoming shows and a reminder to be kind to one another.--Connect with our Guests...#MoniqueMarvez - MoniqueMarvez.com & @MoniqueMarvez on Instagram#BrianMalow - ScienceComedian.com#MichelleObama #Trump #Epstein #Vaccines #SocialChange #QueenBeeSyndrome #UncomfortableTruths #ScienceMisinformation  #BrianCopeland #CopelandsCorner #HeadlinersOnTheHeadlines#CopelandUnfiltered #ComedyCommentary #PodcastersOfYouTube #ComicsOnAir #TalkPodcast#PoliticalHumor #PoliticalPodcast #HotTalkTopicsPodcast Hosted by the Bay Area's own Brian Copeland, a longtime Actor, Comedian, Author, Playwright, Television and Radio Personality.

Tom's fasting, Christina's gassy, and Joe DeRosa is back with a brand new comedy special and hot sandwich takes about a major New York institution. The show kicks off with a debate over whether fighter pilots could get away with call signs like “Stanky Cock” or “Big Dick.” The Main Mommies next dive deep into the aftermath of their staff psych evals, with borderline revelations, some tampon talk, and a real concern for Enny's suspiciously normal results. Tom also opens up about his multi-day fast, shrinking penis, and terrifying wellness advice, while Christina celebrates colonics as feminist self-care. Then, Joe DeRosa enters the chat. The trio debates Hitler as a motivational speaker, Dan Peña's castle energy, building houses on famous murder sites, and the growing arms race of celebrity sex criminals. Joe also dishes on Bradley Cooper visiting his sandwich shop, fantasizes about quitting comedy to work at Best Buy, and breaks down his bleak-but-hilarious new special I Never Promised You a Rose Garden.

It's Wednesday, July 23rd, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Muslims kill Syrian pastor and 20 members of family Syrian Muslims took the life of a pastor and 20 members of his family over the weekend. Khalid Mezher was the pastor of the Good Shepherd Evangelical Church in southern Syria. He and his family converted to Christianity years ago out of a religious group in the area known as the Druze.  Violence between Druze militias and fighters from the Bedouin tribes, which are mostly Muslim, has taken the lives of hundreds of people over the last week.  Evangelical leader Johnnie Moore wrote on X, “Pastor Khalid died for a faith that many Christians hardly live. They are now martyrs who gave their entire lives, in difficult circumstances, to share the love of Jesus with their neighbors and beloved Syria.” In Matthew 16:25, Jesus said, “For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.” Puerto Rico protects kids from transsexual drugs and surgeries Puerto Rico is protecting children from transsexual drugs and surgeries. Last Wednesday, Republican Governor Jenniffer González Colón signed the Law for the Protection of the Health and Well-being of Minors in Puerto Rico. Harming children with such transsexual procedures is punishable by 15 years in prison.   Puerto Rico joins nearly 30 states in America with similar bans. Japan to invest $550 billion into America President Donald Trump secured a great deal with Japan, reports The Epoch Times. On Truth Social, President Trump announced, “We just completed a massive deal with Japan, perhaps the largest deal ever made. Japan will invest, at my direction, $550 billion into the United States, which will receive 90% of the profits. “This deal will create hundreds of thousands of jobs. There has never been anything like it. Perhaps most importantly, Japan will open their country to trade including cars and trucks, rice and certain other agricultural products. … Japan will pay reciprocal tariffs to the United States of 15%.” CBS/Skydance to pay Trump Foundation $36 million President Trump recently reached a $16 million settlement with Paramount, the parent of CBS News, over what he claimed was misleading editing of a pre-election interview with the Democratic candidate for president, Kamala Harris, reports The Guardian. While CBS initially called the lawsuit “completely without merit”, Paramount is in the midst of an $8 billion sale to the Hollywood studio Skydance Media, which requires the approval of federal regulators. President Trump has claimed that the future owner of CBS will provide him with $20 million worth of advertising and programming – days after the network canceled The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. On Truth Social, Trump wrote, “We have just achieved a BIG AND IMPORTANT WIN in our historic lawsuit against 60 Minutes, CBS, and Paramount. … CBS and its corporate owners knew that they defrauded the American people, and were desperate to settle. Paramount/CBS/60 Minutes have today paid $16 Million in settlement, and we also anticipate receiving $20 million more from the new owners, in advertising, PSAs, or similar programming, for a total of over $36 million dollars.” He added, “This is another in a long line of VICTORIES over the Fake News Media, who we are holding to account for their widespread fraud and deceit. The Wall Street Journal, The Failing New York Times, The Washington Post, MSDNC, CNN, and all other Mainstream Media Liars, are ON NOTICE that the days of them being allowed to deceive the American people are OVER.” Federal workforce shrunk by 22,000 people A report by the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond found the U.S. federal workforce has shrunk by over 22,000 people from January to May of this year. Chuck Ezell, the Acting Director of the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, said, “The American people deserve a government that is lean, efficient, and focused on core priorities. This data marks the first measurable step toward President Trumpʼs vision of a disciplined, accountable federal workforce and itʼs only the beginning.” Trump has also extended his hiring freeze on federal workers through October. Foreign buyers purchased $56 billion worth of U.S. homes The National Association of Realtors reports that foreign buyers purchased $56 billion worth of U.S. homes from April 2024 through March 2025. The number of home purchases by foreign buyers rose to over 78,000 this year. That's up from last year's report, but still down from 284,000 purchases in 2017.  The top destination states for foreign buyers include Florida, California, Texas, and New York. The most popular origin countries of international buyers are China, Canada, Mexico, India, and the United Kingdom. China's share of buyers has gone up significantly since 2007. Star from The Cosby Show drowned Malcolm-Jamal Warner, who portrayed the teenage son Theo Huxtable on “The Cosby Show”, died at 54 in an accidental drowning in Costa Rica, reports the Associated Press. Costa Rica's Judicial Investigation Department said Warner drowned Sunday afternoon, July 20th on a beach on Costa Rica's Limón province when a current pulled him deeper into the ocean. His character, Theo, was the only son among four daughters in the household of Cosby's Cliff Huxtable and Phylicia Rashad's Clair Huxtable on the NBC sitcom. He was one of the prime representations of American teenage life and Black boyhood on a show that was the most popular in America for much of its run from 1984 to 1992. Christian golfer says priorities are faith, family, then golf And finally, Scottie Scheffler won the Open Championship earlier this week. Also known as the British Open, it's the oldest golf tournament in the world.  The American professional golfer has won 20 times worldwide since 2022. After his latest victory, Scheffler told reporters he enjoys golf but that faith and family are his greatest priorities.  SCHEFFLER: “I would say my greatest priorities are my faith and my family. Those come first for me. Golf is third in that I've said it for a long time. Golf is not how I identify myself. I don't identify myself by winning tournaments, chasing trophies, being famous or whatever it is. “This week, I was the best player in the world. I'm sitting here with the trophy. We're gonna start all over in Memphis, back to even par. Show goes on. I don't feel any different because I've won a golf tournament. This is not the ‘be all end all' for me, but I'm extremely grateful for it. “I don't think that I'm anything special, just because some weeks, I'm better at shooting a lower score than other guys are.” Scheffler's love for family inspired a Nike ad that celebrates fatherhood. The footwear company posted a picture of Scheffler on the golf course with his infant son. Nike wrote, “Priorities unchanged. Another major secured. The wins keep coming on and off the course for Scottie Scheffler.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, July 23rd, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.
