    Vinny Brusco is an insight and perspective coach, community builder, and podcast host who helps men cultivate clarity, connection, and purpose. After 16 years in the car business, he walked away from a lucrative but misaligned career to build a life and business rooted in what matters most to him: authentic brotherhood, mental and spiritual health, and intentional living. As the founder of Agora Social Club and host of The Council of Dudes podcast (with over 500 episodes), Vinny creates spaces where men can drop the performative self-help act and actually live in alignment instead of autopilot. On this episode we talk about: Leaving a high-income, misaligned career for a more meaningful path How sales skills become a “break glass in case of emergency” safety net Why fulfillment in the pursuit matters more than status or titles The loneliness epidemic among men and entrepreneurs Building real, local community through Agora Social Club and long-form conversation Top 3 Takeaways You can be making great money and still be completely out of alignment—and no number in your bank account will fix that internal mismatch. Learning to sell is one of the most valuable “forever skills” you can develop, giving you the confidence to take bigger risks in pursuit of a life you actually want. Deep, in-person community and long-form conversation are antidotes to modern male loneliness, especially for entrepreneurial men who often feel isolated at the top. Notable Quotes “This isn't a weekend hobby; it's a heart-and-soul project that needs a life force behind it.” “If you'd still do it even if you never became ‘the best' at it, you're probably on the right path.” “The transaction is just an energetic byproduct of a real, authentic conversation.” Connect with Vinny Brusco: Instagram (personal): @vinnybrusco Agora Social Club website: ⁠agorasocialclub.com⁠ Instagram (club): @agora_westchester Podcast: ⁠The Council of Dudes A Word from Our Sponsors:- The most successful business owners don't do it all themselves — they delegate.

    We tend to think of the 1990s when it comes to Protestantism in Russia. It was then that evangelicals descended on Russia to shine Jesus' light into the post-Soviet void. Yet, the Soviet Union, despite its best efforts, was a multiconfessional state. And though officially atheist, religious belief persisted, including among the Union's small pockets of Protestants. Like with other faiths, the state's relations with Protestants vacillated between repression, accommodation, and control. As Miriam Dobson says in her new book, The Unorthodox, things shifted after Stalin's death. By the 1960s, regulating religious life fell under the purview of the Council of Religious Affairs. Sure, the state still emphasized atheism, closed churches, and prosecuted Protestants. But its methods were more surgical and the Council relied more on policing the margins over mass repression. So what was life like for the USSR's Protestant minority? How did they practice their faith and maintain community despite pressures of family, society, and the state? And how did all of this connect to the larger Cold War context where the USSR's archenemy was a Protestant majority country? The Eurasian Knot talked to Miriam about The Unorthodox to learn more about Protestant faith and community during the Cold War. Guest:Miriam Dobson is a Reader in Modern History at the University of Sheffield. She is the author of Khrushchev's Cold Summer: Gulag Returnees, Crime, and the Fate of Reform after Stalin and The Unorthodox: Soviet Protestants in Cold-War Ukraine and Russia published by Cornell University Press.

    → Watch on YouTube → Detailed Show Notes (00:00) A brief overview of these psalms.(01:32) Psalm 89 portrays God's power of creation and his justice. Assurances are made to the anointed king that the seed of David will continue with a promise of victory. The last 14 verses are a lament that the king has been forsaken.(07:15) Psalm 93 teaches that the Lord is mightier than the waters, with a description of him overcoming chaos in his acts of creation.(09:14) In Psalm 102 the righteous pray for deliverance. Psalm 115 helps us understand Psalm 102, as they both relate to death and resurrection.(17:23) In Psalm 116 we are assured that God will redeem mankind from death and sorrow and will one day wipe away our tears.(24:10) Psalm 103 describes how the Lord's people rejected him, yet the Lord showed them pity. Much of the Old Testament reflects a post exilic view of God that can be negative. This Psalm shows the lovingkindness of God. Lehi describes the essence of the original Hebrew of this psalm when he says “I am encircled about eternally in the arms of his love.” Knowing God's true character, nature, and perfections lead us unto salvation.(31:51) Psalm 105 portrays God's redemptive work with the children of Israel and the story of the Exodus.(34:13) Psalm 110, “Thou art a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.” Different ways to read Psalm 110 in its historical context and in connection with King Benjamin's sermon. Psalm 110 and Psalm 2 both teach about becoming sons and daughters of Christ.(45:37) Psalm 118.22, “The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.” In the Book of Mormon we are warned against rejecting the Messiah, who sits on the right hand of God. Sometimes the Savior does not meet our preconceived expectations.(55:07) Psalm 119 is an acrostic poem, a prayer to God, and one the longest of the psalms.(1:02:35) Psalms 120-134 are 15 “psalms of ascent,” relating to the Water-Drawing Ceremony at the Feast of Tabernacles. Jesus used this imagery to teach about his power to save.(1:08:21) In Psalm 127 we are reminded that children are an heritage of the Lord.(1:12:52) Psalm 135 elaborates upon Israel's history from the pre-earth Council in Heaven to King David.(1:16:16) Psalm 136 begins in the premortal Council, reiterates the creation, and then Israel's Exodus. God's mercy endures forever.(1:17:39) Psalm 137 is an emotionally moving exilic psalm lamenting the destruction of the temple.(1:23:34) Psalm 138 is a thanksgiving prayer of praise. Psalm 139 expresses the king's worthiness to approach God at the veil of the temple.(1:24:30) Psalm 146 expresses the message of the work Jehovah would do. This was also the message of the angel to King Benjamin. Psalm 148 shows God's power in his creative works.(1:27:21) Psalms 149 and 150 emphasize the participatory nature of the First Israelite Temple Drama. Israel is to sing a new song praising God. → For more of Bryce Dunford’s podcast classes, click here. → Enroll in Institute → YouTube → Apple Podcasts → Spotify → Amazon Music → Facebook The post Ep 387 | Psalms 102-150, Come Follow Me 2026 (Aug 31-Sept 6) appeared first on Talking Scripture.

    Born in Syria, he was a shepherd, but at the age of eighteen he left home and became a monk, practicing the strictest asceticism. At times he fasted for forty days. After a few years at a monastery he took up an ascetical discipline unique at that time: mounting a pillar, he stood on it night and day in prayer. Though he sought only seclusion and prayer, his holiness became famous, and thousands would make pilgrimage to receive a word from him or to touch his garments. Countless nomadic Arabs came to faith in Christ through the power of his example and prayers. To retreat further from the world, he used progressively taller pillars: his first pillar was about ten feet high, his final one about fifty. He was known also for the soundness of his counsel: he confirned the Orthodox doctrine at the Council of Chalcedon and persuaded the Empress Eudocia, who had been seduced by Monophysite beliefs, to return to the true Christian faith. After about forty years lived in asceticism, he reposed in peace at the age of sixty-nine.   He was at first suspected of taking up his way of life out of pride, but his monastic brethren confirmed his humility thus: They went to him as a group, and told him that the brotherhood had decided that he should come down from his pillar and rejoin them. Immediately he began to climb down from the pillar. Seeing his obedience and humility, they told him to remain with their blessing.

    Father and Joe E477: Did Jesus “Grow” in His Mission? — Fully God, Fully Man, and the Universal Call of Salvation

    Father and Joe

    Sometimes the Gospels raise questions that feel dangerous to ask: if Jesus is fully God and fully man, how can Scripture also show Him growing, developing, responding, and acting within a specific mission? Joe Rockey brings that tension directly to Father Boniface Hicks through examples like the wedding at Cana, the Canaanite woman, the cleansing of the Temple, and Jesus' outreach beyond Israel. The result is a careful conversation about Christ's humanity, His divinity, and how God's universal plan unfolds through particular people, places, and relationships.Father explains that Jesus' mission is universal in its final purpose—He desires the salvation of the whole world—but proximate in its historical method. Jesus ministers first to the lost sheep of the house of Israel, forms the apostles, fulfills the covenant, and then sends the Church outward to the Gentiles. The apostles themselves had to grow into that understanding, especially through Peter, Cornelius, the Holy Spirit, and the early Church's discernment.The conversation also turns practical: every Christian has a mission field. The whole world matters, but most of us serve the whole by loving, teaching, witnessing, and evangelizing the people directly entrusted to us—family, parish, workplace, friends, and the communities God places before us. Father's own mission field as a parish priest becomes one example of how a specific assignment participates in the broader mission of Christ.Finally, Joe and Father discuss how to read Scripture faithfully. The Gospels are not distortions of Jesus; they are true witness, written by human authors under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Sometimes the Holy Spirit preserves details whose full meaning becomes clearer later, like “Easter eggs” in salvation history. Jesus truly grows in His humanity, while His divine mission remains ordered by the Father from the beginning.**Key Ideas*** Jesus is fully God and fully man; His humanity truly develops without His divine mission being confused or incomplete.* Jesus' mission is universal in purpose, but historically begins with Israel and then extends through the Church to the Gentiles.* The Canaanite woman reveals faith and order: the children first, then the household pets—not rejection, but mission unfolding.* Every Christian has a mission field: not everyone all at once, but the people God actually places before us.* Scripture is written through real human authors, but the Holy Spirit is the primary author guiding the deeper unity of salvation history.**Scripture Mentioned*** Wedding at Cana* The Canaanite woman / “lost sheep of the house of Israel”* Cleansing of the Temple / courtyard of the Gentiles* Peter and Cornelius* Council of Jerusalem* The centurion / “Lord, I am not worthy”* Luke 2:51–52 — Jesus growing in wisdom and grace* Moses' staff and the hyssop branch at the Crucifixion**Links & References**None explicitly referenced with a clear official/source link in this episode.**CTA:** If this helped, please leave a review or share this episode with a friend.Questions or thoughts?

    Connect With ChazRylee Meek gave his life to entrepreneurship at fifteen. He started in network marketing, moved to personal training, discovered dinner seminar marketing at 26, made his first million dollar year selling insulation without knowing what the R value stood for, and has since built a nine-figure sales and client acquisition empire across industries including insurance, regenerative medicine, and home remodeling. He also co-founded The King's Council, a ministry and mastermind for faith-driven entrepreneurs.In this conversation with Chaz Wolfe, Rylee breaks down the dinner seminar model that changed his entire trajectory, why following your passion is the worst advice ever given, the predictable-sustainable-scalable selling system he builds into every business, and the seven-day creation template from Genesis that he now runs every business and life decision through.Key Takeaways:If you build it, they will not come. Unless you have a consistent, predictable flow of leads and sales, you do not have a business. You have a very expensive hobby.The number one enemy of every vision is lack of provision. You can have the greatest vision in the world, but if you cannot create enough value in the marketplace that someone will pay for, you have nothing.Do not follow your passion. Follow opportunity. But always bring your passion with you. Passion without opportunity is just a broke person with a great attitude.The dinner seminar breakthrough: delivering one presentation to 20 qualified prospects versus 20 individual presentations is leverage. Once Rylee discovered it in 2011 at age 26, he never went back. That year became his first million-dollar year.You cannot manage what you do not measure. If you do not know where in the funnel your leads are dropping off, you cannot fix it. Every advertising dollar is a seed. Know where it is landing.Build a predictable, sustainable, and scalable selling system. If you cannot dial it up or slow it down on command, you do not have a system. You have a hustle.Every product and service is a commodity unless you can articulate why a buyer should pay a premium for yours. If you cannot, you are competing on price. That is a race to the bottom.The seven-day Genesis blueprint applied to business: Day 1 is vision, Day 2 is culture and atmosphere, Day 3 is structure and playbook, Day 4 is order and implementation, Day 5 is momentum, Day 6 is dominion and fruitfulness, Day 7 is rest and reflection. Most entrepreneurs skip days 2 through 4 and wonder why the momentum fades.Rest is not weakness. The Sabbath was created for man. One day of rest and reflection allows you to pour gas on what is working and stop doing what is not. Entrepreneurs who never stop never know which is which.You were created to create. Whatever your faith background, the template of vision, atmosphere, structure, order, momentum, dominion, and rest is a framework that works in business and in life.If you are a contractor business owner doing $1M+ and you feel stuck in the day-to-day, we built GTK for you.Through peer mastermind and 1:1 coaching, we help you:increase profitinstall real systemsbuild a team that runs the businessget your time backVisit www.gatheringthekings.com for information on how to apply.Connect with Chaz Wolfe (Host):WebsiteFacebookInstagramLinkedInYouTubeProfit Starts with Better Books!Clean books.

The chronicles that look back to this time do not agree on the dates of his ministry and otherwise only record a few vague details. He is supposed to have placed the chanting of the Sanctus at its present place in the Mass, right after the Preface; he is also recorded to have been martyred, although nothing seems to be preserved about the event.   Sixtus / Xystus II: pope during the persecution of Valerian in the third century. His brief reign saw a reconciliation with St. Cyprian and churches in Africa and Asia Minor, which had been requiring heretics to be rebaptized. The persecution was stepped up in August 258 and Pope Xystus was beheaded with four deacons in a cemetery where he was celebrating Mass; two more deacons were executed the same day; the last and most famous deacon, Lawrence, survived a few days to be captured and according to legend roasted to death. Pope Sixtus to this day is mentioned in the full version of the Roman Canon of the Eucharistic Prayer.   Sixtus / Xystus III: prior to his election as pope, a correspondent with St. Augustine. Approved the acts of the Council of Ephesus and rededicated the restored basilica of St. Mary Major. This historical period included continued disputes with both Pelagians and Nestorians. Defended and maintained papal supremacy over Illyricum. Succeeded by Leo the Great.   Sixtus IV: pope of the late fifteenth century. Born of poor parents; became a Franciscan and a notable theologian. Unfortunately once pope he became a traditional nepotist and involved the Papal States in wars to put his nephews in charge of Florence and Ferrara, and wars of this nature continued to absorb papal attention through the beginning of the Reformation. He opposed and annulled the decrees of the Council of Constance and was successful in turning the Church away from conciliarism. He was a great builder and is said to have made Rome much more livable, helping continue its recovery from the Avignon period of the papacy. He reorganized and essentially refounded the Vatican Library and most famously built the Sistine Chapel.   Sixtus V: also of poor birth and Dalmatian ancestry, whose family had fled from Turkish expansion; supposedly a swineherd as a boy. Also became a Franciscan and rose to prominence in that order, also for a time appointed to the Inquisition in Venice. Accompanied the future Gregory XIII to Spain to investigate claims that the Archbishop of Toledo was a heretic, and the two did not get along. During Gregory XIII's long reign he was sidelined. Similarly to his time as an inquisitor, he proved to be an effective but severe and even brutal ruler of the Papal States. He had perhaps ten thousand to thirty thousand brigands to deal with and nearly exterminated them. He put the papal finances in order and built many useful and beautiful buildings, but seems to have taxed the economy into a stupor. Of particular significance, he created fifteen Congregations to organize the cardinals and created much of the current structure of the Curia. He caused editions of the Septuagint and the Vulgate to be printed, although his edition of the Vulgate is not considered to be of high quality, and even at the time was recalled and corrected in 1592 due to many errors already recognized. He was supposedly on the point of forcing the Jesuits to change their name from the "Society of Jesus" and change some of the rules of the order when he died. For a change he was actually notably non-nepotistic.   Why Sixtus VI: A cardinal would take this name in order to revive the memory of Sixtus II (and I), recognizing that the Church in so many parts of the world faces persecution on a massive scale. That by itself might be enough. The early modern era Popes Sixtus, especially Sixtus V, might contribute to the idea especially if 1) the cardinal is a Franciscan and 2) he plans to address the Vatican finances and the organization of the Curia at large.

    In this episode of BioTalk with Rich Bendis, Tammi Thomas, President of TEDCO, joins the conversation to discuss how Maryland is helping entrepreneurs move ideas from research and concept to market. Tammi shares how TEDCO has evolved from an early-stage funding organization into a broader partner for Maryland startups, supporting companies through capital, federal funding navigation, technical assistance, ecosystem connections, and venture development. The conversation touches on what makes Maryland's innovation ecosystem different, from federal labs and research universities to technical talent, founder grit, and quality of life. Tammi and Rich also discuss why helping companies stay and scale in Maryland requires more than writing a check. Tammi highlights several TEDCO programs and initiatives, including SBIR/STTR support, the Entrepreneur Expo, the Equitech Growth Fund, the Maryland Stem Cell Research Fund, and the Maryland Makerspace Initiative. The episode closes with a look at Maryland's next opportunity: connecting these individual assets into a more seamless path for founders, so companies can move from feasibility to prototype, federal funding, venture capital, and commercialization without leaving the state. Editing and post-production work for this episode was provided by The Podcast Consultant. Tammi Thomas is President of TEDCO, Maryland's $200M+ AUM, with another $50M being managed under a strategic partnership, $2.7B impact, economic engine for technology and life sciences companies. In this role, she serves as the primary internal leader of TEDCO, working closely with the CEO to execute priorities and translate the CEO's vision across departments while ensuring alignment, accountability, overall performance, and company-wide commitment to transparent reporting. She is responsible for the overall strategic direction, leadership, execution and management of TEDCO's fundraising strategies designed to broaden awareness of and expand philanthropic, corporate and investor resources for TEDCO and its various programs. Tammi leads TEDCO's efforts to secure additional fiscal resources from the State of Maryland, federal and philanthropic grants, and venture capital investments. Since 2020, TEDCO has increased its revenues from the State by more than 50%, has been the recipient of over $75M in federal grants, increased its AUM by over 33%, secured over $55M in foreign direct investments and created over a $500K philanthropic pipeline. Additionally, Tammi leads TEDCO's investor and stakeholder engagement strategy through relationship building, compelling brand storytelling, and convening high-impact events, including TEDCO's  annual Entrepreneur Expo, which draws over 1,000 entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, legislators, and ecosystem leaders under one roof. Her leadership and knowledge are instrumental in forging relationships that will enable TEDCO to expand its reach and services, diversify funding streams, and grow the innovation ecosystem, as well as establish TEDCO as the most recognized organization in Maryland for identifying, investing in, and growing technology and life sciences-based businesses. Tammi is also a key decision maker in the organization's investment decisions through her role on the fund allocation team, allocating over $25-30M per year. Her experience includes executive leadership roles such as serving as the former Chief Development & Marketing Officer and now President of TEDCO, Vice President of Strategic Management at Data Solutions & Technology Inc., and Director of Business Development and Marketing at University of Maryland, Baltimore County Research Park & Business Incubator. In addition to her corporate and economic development leadership experience, Tammi's professional expertise was sought after, to teach the next generation of communicators as an adjunct professor at Bowie State University and the University of Baltimore. She is also a frequent speaker and published thought leader on leadership, entrepreneurship, and business development. Tammi has been recognized by her industry peers for excellence in communication, marketing and development. She has received the Maryland Economic Development Association's Marketing award for TEDCO's Entrepreneur Expo (2020), the Cybersecurity Association of Maryland's 2017 Cybersecurity Industry Resource Award, the AMA Baltimore's MX Award for Best Print Advertisement Campaign of the Year (2022 and 2023), named one of The Daily Record's Top 100 Women in Maryland (2023 ), received a Distinguished Women Award from the Girl Scouts of Central Maryland (2024), named one of I-95 Business Magazine's 2025 Influential Women, was chosen as a Waves of Change Impact Award honoree (2025) and most recently was selected as one of Maryland's Top 100 Women for a second time (2026). She graduated from Leadership Maryland's Class of 2018, completing the eight-month hands-on learning program focused on the State's most vital social, economic and environmental issues. She serves on the World Trade Center Institute's CEO Council, Maryland Energy Innovation Institute Investment Committee, the Maryland Momentum Fund Advisory Board and MEDA Board of Directors, where she is currently serving as President.

    A kid walks into the ER because they thought a THC edible was candy, and the package did the lying. That's one of the most unsettling through-lines in my conversation with Luanne Thomas Ewald, chief operating officer at CS Mott Children's Hospital and Von Voigtlander Women's Hospital at University of Michigan Health, recorded at the 2026 Mackinac Policy Conference with the Michigan Health and Hospital Association. Luanne breaks down what's new at Michigan Medicine, including how CS Mott keeps pushing pediatric innovation and measurable outcomes, and why a design choice matters more than a press release: the women's hospital is built within the children's hospital, so high-risk deliveries can move a newborn to specialized care in a one-minute elevator ride instead of an ambulance transfer. We also talk leadership and collaboration across Michigan as she reflects on nearly 34 years in children's health and her role with MHA's Council on Children's Health, where hospitals step away from competition to focus on what's best for kids statewide. We dig into major child health policy issues that don't always make headlines: Medicaid funding threats that squeeze working families caring for children with chronic conditions, and how housing support like Ronald McDonald House Ann Arbor becomes critical when a children's hospital is consistently operating above capacity. If you care about pediatric patient safety, children's hospital capacity, Medicaid policy, or practical regulation that prevents harm, this conversation is for you. Subscribe for more healthcare leadership conversations, share this episode with someone who cares about kids' health in Michigan, and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.Support the showEngage the conversation on Substack at The Common Bridge!

    Our guest today Will Potter's new book, Little Red Barns, started as a tale about censorship in journalism around industrial agriculture, but became something much bigger: a 10 year investigation look at how factory farming, an ages old mythos of family farms, and the rise of authoritarian politics have all worked in tandem to produce social, economic, and ecological disaster.Will is an investigative journalist and author of Green Is the New Red. In this conversation, we talk about what he found writing Little Red Barns, from the industry's efforts to keep cameras out of factory farms to what that secrecy is really protecting.In this episode, we explore: The story of the “little red barn” that masks a darker truth about industrial agriculture What led Will to spend a decade investigating factory farms and how the project grew beyond ag gag laws How ag gag laws work, and how they've been used to prosecute journalists and whistleblowers Competing visions for what comes next: What role animals play, and should play, in our food system How Will connects factory farming to the broader rise of authoritarian politicsMore about Will:Will Potter is an award-winning investigative journalist and TED Senior Fellow who exposes political repression and the erosion of civil liberties. His reporting and commentary have appeared in The Washington Post, Foreign Policy, and Rolling Stone, and has helped overturn prosecutions and challenge censorship laws. He has been invited to testify before the U.S. Congress, the Australian Parliament, and the Council of Europe, advocating for protest rights and press freedom. His landmark book Green Is the New Red revealed how governments and corporations have labeled nonviolent activists as “terrorists.” Counter Terrorism Unit surveillance documents described it as “compelling and well-written.” His new book, Little Red Barns, is the result of a 10-year investigation into factory farms and rising fascism, and was recently named one of Publishers Weekly's most-anticipated releases and a starred review.Will's journalism and scholarship have been heavily influenced by growing up in the hardcore punk scene, and he has collaborated with bands including Rise Against. He was previously a Knight-Wallace Fellow and visiting professor at the University of Michigan, and was named the distinguished journalist-in-residence at the University of Denver Sturm College of Law. He was born and raised in Fort Worth, Texas.————-Agrarian Futures is produced by Alexandre Miller, who also wrote our theme song. This episode was edited by Drew O'Doherty.

Repentance is rebuilding our relationship with the Savior.(28:59) Psalm 61 can be read as a plea of the king before he goes out to battle and can be seen in the setting of the temple drama. Compared to God, we are nothing. The teaching of works is found here, but is often lost.(33:32) To be built upon the Rock is emphasized in the Psalms and also in the Book of Mormon.(41:43) Psalm 63 is a veil type-scene, as the king approaches the presence of God. “In the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice…thy right hand upholdeth me.” This psalm is connected to Malachi 4.(52:10) Psalm 64 is a prayer for help. Psalm 65 is an expression of thanks for the abundant harvest feast and the blessing of water in the land.(59:02) Psalm 66 is an example of how the sacred temple drama was participatory.(1:03:31) Psalm 68 depicts God as one who loves the widows and the fatherless. It also portrays the battle between light and darkness.(1:06:12) Psalm 69 teaches that God will bless and help us, but we are also here to be tested. “Deliver me out of the mire and let me not sink.” Psalm 70 is a prayer to God for deliverance.(1:09:35) Psalm 72 portrays the coronation of the king. Isaiah 61 contains all five essential parts of the ancient coronation ceremony.(1:14:31) Psalm 74 shows God's conflict with the dragon and the sea. Creation and order come out of chaos.(1:15:32) Psalm 77 and 78 retell the story of Moses, a mighty king who carried Israel out of Egypt. This establishes his legitimacy and is tied to the temple drama and God's sovereignty on earth.

    Do you feel like impossible things have been happening lately? Like something is speeding up, shifting, opening in ways you can't quite explain? What if you don't need a miracle at all, and what if the moment you truly understand who you are, you realize you already are the miracle? Michael welcomes back Sarah Landon, channel for a collective of higher wisdom known as the Council, for a conversation about something brand new coming through: the miracle frequency. From the courage it takes to choose love while the world feels chaotic, to a powerful live channeling session on grief, abundance, and the promise you made to yourself before you arrived here, this episode is a masterclass in remembering that you were never meant to do any of this alone, or in scarcity. This isn't about waiting for a miracle to rescue you. This is about recognizing that the moment you stop chasing relief and start living from your true, whole nature, you become the very thing you've been asking for. Key Topics: What the miracle frequency actually is: the shift from "I need a miracle" to "I am the miracle," and why that single reframe begins attracting extraordinary experiences into every area of life. Why it takes real courage to stay conscious and choose love right now, rather than defaulting into humanity's habitual pull toward fear, separation, and lack. The "slug bug" phenomenon: why focusing on darkness only draws more darkness into view, while focusing on synchronicity and support reveals just how much the universe genuinely has your back. Why the universe doesn't care what you direct your creative energy toward - it's all fuel - and why that neutrality is both the challenge and the invitation of free will. Sarah's raw, personal breakthrough around money: uncovering the childhood belief "there's not enough money for you to live your dreams," and how naming it dissolved decades of quiet self-limitation. The airplane-at-the-gate metaphor: why you can't carry fear, doubt, or unworthiness through the "security checkpoint" into your extraordinary life; you have to set it down first. Three things that can never be taken from you, no matter your circumstances, even incarceration: appreciation, imagination, and vibration, and why any one of them is enough to begin shifting your reality. Why every conflict, argument, and even war, according to the Council, ultimately comes down to energy, not the surface-level reason people believe they're fighting about. A full live channeling from the Council on remembering your power, why grief keeps love with nowhere to go, and why peace, not struggle, is meant to be the foundation from which inspired action arises. Sarah's moving story of connecting with her late father through repeated signs of yellow birds and white butterflies, and the profound reframe of loss as a "grand vacation" ending in reunion rather than an ending. You are the miracle in this world. Not someday, not once you've earned it, not once the circumstances finally line up, right now, exactly as you are. You have all the power, all the light, all the love needed to be that miracle. And when you also remember that everyone you meet is a miracle too, even when they've forgotten it themselves, you become one of the most powerful forces on this planet.

    A new four-part series from This Is Not A Drill… Putin thought he could conquer Ukraine with a tank, air and infantry-led attack straight out of the Second World War. Instead Kyiv turned the tables on Russia with the fastest, most intensive transformation of warfare in half a century. In this mini-series Gavin Esler explores this new generation of weapons and how they'll fight – or prevent – the next wars. This time: cheap, mass-produced drones enabled Kyiv to hit Russia hard and deep. Ukraine is now the world expert in this new technology. What does it mean when you can take out a warship with a weapon that costs less than a family car? What is “precision mass”? And why A.I. will make drones even more powerful. Gavin Esler talks to: • Illya Sekirin, former frontline drone operator for Ukraine and author of Rise of the Machines: Drone Warfare in the Russia-Ukraine War • Michael Horowitz, Senior Fellow for Technology and Innovation at the Council on Foreign Relations • Peter Apps, global defence columnist for Reuters, British Army reservist and author of The Next World War • Major General (Ret.)

There's a module for that. Module name/project name: Security Scanner Brief history How old: created in July 2026 by Mayank Gupta (mayankguptadotcom) of Acquia Versions available: 1.0.0, which works with Drupal 10.3 and 11 Maintainership Actively maintained — created and shipped its first stable this summer, with steady development right through late July Security coverage Test coverage — and it's strong: unit and kernel tests, including a regression corpus built from real Drupal core advisories Documentation? In-depth README with a full check table and CI recipes, plus a CHANGELOG Number of open issues: 1 issue, not a bug Usage stats: 2 sites (it's brand new) Module features and usage Provide a Drush command, has no UI — you point drush security:scan at a module or any path, it reads the code statically, and prints a prioritized, OWASP-mapped list of things to review It's built for the age of AI-written code — the checks target the classes AI assistants keep reintroducing: routes with no access check, #markup and |raw XSS, missing CSRF tokens, unserialize() on untrusted data, hardcoded secrets Then there's an optional deep pass: with the Psalm static analysis scanning engine installed, it'll trace untrusted input across functions and files to catch cross-function issues. And it's honest about state — the report always says whether that deep pass ran, was skipped, or failed, so a failure never gets mistaken for a clean scan One nice detail under the hood: a tokenizer-backed "code map" that knows whether a match is real code, a comment, or a string — so it won't flag the word "unserialize" sitting in a doc comment. That kills the single biggest source of false positives The checks are regression-tested against real Drupal advisories (Drupalgeddon, Drupalgeddon2, the 2019 unserialize bug, etc) so a pattern that caused an actual CVE can't quietly come back in your custom code Output comes in three flavors: a readable table, JSON for CI and AI agents, and SARIF — which means findings show up as annotations right on your GitHub or GitLab merge-request diff instead of buried in a job log For adopting it on an existing codebase there's a baseline file — you fingerprint the findings you've reviewed, with a required reason on each, and they stop failing the build but never go invisible; every run still counts them It exits non-zero on error-level findings, so it drops straight into CI or a pre-commit hook And it's extensible — checks are Drupal plugins with a #[SecurityCheck] attribute, so any module can add its own or alter the ones that ship Big caveat, and the module says this itself: a finding means "review this," not "this is broken." Static analysis has false positives, and a clean scan doesn't prove the code is secure — access-control logic especially still needs human review I first heard about this module over beverages at Drupalcamp Asheville, so I know that this module was largely vibe-coded, after having an AI agent ingest every single Drupal security team CVE. So I like to think of this module as security pattern recognition tool, but of course it does even more

    This episode unpacks the current state of the U.S.-Iran conflict, broader dynamics in the Middle East, and the shifting U.S. role in the region.   Host: James M. Lindsay, Mary and David Boies Distinguished Senior Fellow in U.S. Foreign Policy, CFR   Guest: Steven A. Cook, Eni Enrico Mattei Senior Fellow for Middle East and Africa Studies, CFR   We Discuss: Who, if anyone, is winning the six-month war with Iran, and how freedom of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz, Iran's ability to menace its neighbors, and its incentives to pursue a nuclear weapon have all evolved. Why the extent of the damage to Iran's nuclear program remains unknown, and why Tehran now has every incentive to dash toward weaponization. How the war's decapitation strikes produced leadership change rather than genuine regime change, leading to a situation in which the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the hardest of Iran's hardliners now call the shots in Tehran. Whether the supposed split between Iranian "moderates" and "hardliners" is real or a Western construct that makes the regime more intelligible. What President Donald Trump's "economic D-Day" is meant to achieve, and why it remains uncertain that economic isolation will lead to regime collapse. Whether U.S. bluster carries real costs, and how doubts about U.S. credibility have pushed Gulf partners to look elsewhere for their security. What the Mecca Joint Defense Agreement between Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Turkey actually signals, and whether it represents an alternative to an American-sponsored regional order rather than a true Article 5-style pact. Why the United Arab Emirates was left out of the Mecca agreement, and what the rift between Abu Dhabi and Riyadh reveals about fractures within the Gulf. Where the region is headed as the U.S.-led Middle East order comes to an end, and whether a diminished U.S. role and greater regional agency is a good thing.   Mentioned on the Episode:   Steven A.

    Ghislaine Maxwell attempted to reinvent herself as an environmental philanthropist through the TerraMar Project, a nonprofit she founded in 2012 that promoted ocean conservation and protection of the high seas. TerraMar gave Maxwell access to respectable institutions and influential audiences, including appearances connected to the Council on Foreign Relations and the United Nations, while allowing her to cultivate a public image as an advocate for the oceans. But despite the ambitious rhetoric surrounding the project, questions lingered about how much tangible conservation work TerraMar actually accomplished. Its website promoted ideas such as treating the high seas as a kind of shared global territory and encouraged supporters to become symbolic “citizens” of the ocean, but the organization remained relatively opaque and its accomplishments were difficult to measure against the grand vision Maxwell presented publicly.The project became even more controversial because of Maxwell's longstanding relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, whose 2008 conviction and later 2019 federal sex-trafficking charges cast a much darker light on her philanthropic persona. TerraMar abruptly announced that it was shutting down on July 12, 2019, less than a week after Epstein's arrest became public, effectively ending Maxwell's attempt to establish herself as a prominent environmental advocate. By then, Maxwell herself was facing renewed scrutiny over allegations concerning her role in Epstein's world, including litigation brought by one of his victims. The collapse of TerraMar ultimately became another example of the respectable public identity Maxwell constructed around elite institutions and philanthropy while serious allegations about her conduct alongside Epstein were closing in around her.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Whatever Happened to Ghislaine Maxwell's Plan to Save the Oceans? - The New York Times

    Send us Fan MailRhode Island's primary sprint, the Providence mayor's race, and the shakeup in statewide politicsWith early voting underway, Bill Bartholomew and Hummel break down a Rhode Island primary that feels unusually compressed, low-energy, and wide open in several marquee races. They focus on the governor's race, the Providence mayoral primary, and how turnout, apathy, and candidate organization could decide everything.We discuss why the governor's race appears to be Helena Foulkes versus Dan McKee, why Providence mayor could be the most consequential contest on the ballot, and how the attorney general and lieutenant governor primaries are shaped by heavy uncertainty and weak candidate separation. The conversation also zooms out to the collapse of Rhode Island Republican infrastructure and the question of whether independent Ken Block can change the dynamics.Key topicsThe primary feels like a sprint after a long buildup, with very little time to energize voters before election day.Hummel argues that apathy is the dominant force in this cycle, especially because many races feel either predetermined or hard to differentiate.In the governor's race, Dan McKee is framed as carrying a long list of political liabilities, including the Washington Bridge, CVS/opioids, and general voter fatigue.Helena Foulkes is seen as holding a consistent polling advantage, with multiple polls showing her ahead by a meaningful margin.The Providence mayor's race between incumbent Brett Smiley and challenger David Morales is described as the most interesting contest, with Morales bringing national attention and youthful energy.Smiley's strength is his political infrastructure, especially his turnout operation and support from Eddie Catucci, who is described as a master of mail ballots and ground game.The lieutenant governor and attorney general primaries are portrayed as crowded and muddy, with lots of undecided voters and very little ideological separation.The discussion notes that gun policy and constitutional concerns may be pushing some Democratic voters away from more aggressive positions in the AG race.National anti-incumbent sentiment is seen as helping challengers broadly, but not necessarily translating cleanly to every local race.Rhode Island Republicans are described as deeply weakened, lacking a coherent bench, a strong message, or an effective opposition strategy.Aaron Guckian and the Republican gubernatorial field are viewed as weakly positioned, while the congressional races are portrayed as even more chaotic.Ken Block is treated as the most plausible wild card in the governor's race, especially if he can consolidate support or benefit from a one-on-one dynamic.Timestamps(00:00) Opening the primary sprint and why this cycle feels flat (01:43) Why turnout and election-day energy matter more than usual (03:23) Providence mayor becomes the race to watch (05:36) McKee's polling problem and the uphill climb in the governor's race (06:23) What could help McKee and what still works against him (07:31) Smiley's turnout machine versus Morales' grassroots energy (08:42) Why the lieutenant governor and AG races are so unsettled (09:46) Little separation in the AG field and the gun policy divide (11:23) Does national anti-incumbent anger spill into Rhode Island? (13:14) What Providence schools and city management mean for Smiley (14:15) The collapse of the Rhode Island Republican ecosystem (15:55) Why the GOP congressional slate looks so weak (17:14) How Trump hollowed out the state party (19:41) Could Ken Block become the real governor's race alternative? (21:55) Block's media strategy and money challenge (22:25) Election day timing, early voting, and closing thoughtsSupport the showFollow Bill on Instagram and YouTube

    Democrats trail Republicans in cash by nine figures. The DNC reported $16 million on hand against $17.9 million in debt. The RNC reported $130 million. Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers follow the money filling the gap, and most of it comes from senior citizens. A Stanford researcher spent eight months preparing an investigation for The New York Times. Fact checkers cleared it. Lawyers cleared it. Then the Elias Law Group sent cease and desist letters on behalf of Democratic committees, and the paper walked away. What the research found: a spam text pipeline built to squeeze a captive pool of elderly donors. An 85 year old man in Oxford, Ohio gave 7,800 times, nearly $650,000, more than double the value of his house. A 90 year old woman in an Indiana senior living facility gave more than 25,000 times, $250,000 in total. Fewer than 1% of Democrat donors account for almost half of the $1.4 billion these PACs have raised since 2017. One network alone pulled in $390 million. Most of the money never reaches a candidate. It recycles back into the fundraising operation. Hakeem Jeffries shows the shift in one chart. In 2018, his average donor was 54 and 21% were 65 or older. This cycle, his average donor is 73 and 86% are senior citizens. Then the midterm ledger. Ripple and Coinbase sit at the top of $230 million in special interest spending, ahead of Big Tech and Wall Street. FanDuel and DraftKings make the top six. George Soros has given more than $102 million this year. AIPAC drew headlines for $30 million behind Haley Stevens in Michigan, while the money moving against her opponent's opponent stays far harder to trace: a $200,000 super PAC check from Abdul El-Sayed's father-in-law, an Islamic Society of North America figure; $25,000 from an Egyptian American activist sentenced to life in absentia; $115,000 tied to people affiliated with the Council on American-Islamic Relations. Saudi Arabia spent $92 million on Washington lobbying last year with roughly 148 registered foreign agents. Peter and Eric close on Sharia law, Jesse Watters' interview with El-Sayed, and whether the red-green alliance holds long enough to make Michigan competitive.

    The recent increase in Treasury's buyback operations will remove long-term USTs from the market using new short-term debt or cash from the Treasury General Account. Secretary Bessent believes the buybacks will help bring long-term yields closer to what he deems fundamentals. The move comes weeks after Treasury officials intervened to support the yen, in part from worries that Japan would otherwise sell Treasuries to buy up its currency. In this special edition of Simply Put, we talk with Brad Setser, Senior Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, about what motivated the increase in Treasury's buyback operations, why the US helped strengthen the yen, and whether these interventions will have lasting impacts on the Treasury market.

    In this release, Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre is elected Superior General of the Holy Ghost Fathers, taking charge of the congregation at a moment of deep confusion and rapid change. Chapter 14 shows him trying to strengthen doctrine, restore discipline, protect priestly and religious formation, and resist the spread of modernist ideas in seminaries and communities. Yet the same revolutionary spirit he had fought at the Council now appears within his own congregation. Despite his efforts to reform, organize, and preserve the missionary spirit of the Holy Ghost Fathers, opposition grows. By the end, he resigns, leaves the motherhouse with almost nothing, and begins to consider a new work: a traditional seminary.

The protests followed the leak of medical entrance exam papers but quickly grew to reflect wider concerns about job opportunities for graduates.The movement became known as the Cockroach Janta Party. What began as an online campaign developed into a youth-led protest movement, attracting prominent activists and drawing international attention.As the protests grew, they posed a challenge to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the governing Bharatiya Janata Party, which has been in power for more than a decade. The movement has brought together people from different parts of Indian society and highlighted dissatisfaction over job opportunities and prospects for young people.So how has the Cockroach Janta Party changed India's politics and what does it mean for its future?(Photo: Students celebrate the resignation of India's Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, in Amritsar on July 25, 2026. 14 students all protesting with one arm in the air making peace signs.

She went looking for a formula and found something more ordinary. We get into how to tell a real passion from checking out, and what parents do in the moments after their kid fails. She also tells the story of biting her tongue when her son left college halfway through. If you're white-knuckling your teen's path, my friend, this one's for you. Guest bio Margot Machol Bisnow is the author of Raising an Entrepreneur: How to Help Your Children Achieve Their Dreams, 99 Stories from Families Who Did, written after sitting down with more than 70 families whose kids grew into wildly self-driven adults. Before that she spent 20 years in government, including serving as an FTC commissioner and as staff director of the President's Council of Economic Advisers. Her two grown sons found their own paths: Austin is a musician who founded the band Magic Giant and the folk duo Somewhere in Between, and Elliot founded the Summit conference series for young entrepreneurs and led the purchase and revival of Powder Mountain in Utah. When she isn't talking about parenting, she's traveling or with her family.

    Have you ever gotten a message from a total stranger asking you to show them a house tomorrow? Or, worse, NOW? This episode covers a little bit of everything: client intake, boundaries, and buyer and seller consultations, because honestly this topic touches almost every system we've built our businesses on. Lately we've both had new clients come to us in a completely different state than we're used to. Ready to go, no pre-approval, no idea what the process actually looks like, and a whole lot of whiplash for us. We walk through exactly how we intake a brand new buyer starting with that very first phone call, why pre-approval has to happen before we ever get in the car, and how the buyer representation agreement fits into that conversation. We share the story of a buyer we've worked with off and on since 2018 (yes, eight years), a listing referral that nearly fell apart over price, and a listing appointment where being honest about a renovation almost cost the job... until it didn't. If you've been letting your own rules slide because you're busy, or slow, or scared of losing a referral, this one is your permission slip to take control back from the very first conversation. Here's what we cover in this episode: Why client intake, boundaries, and buyer and seller consultations all overlap What to do when a brand new buyer wants to see a house before you've even met How to explain the buyer representation agreement without scaring people off Why pre-approval needs to happen before the buyer consultation, not after The "may I have a preferred lender call you" question that actually gets buyers moving A story about learning the hard way to meet at a seller's house before showing them other homes Why a referral doesn't automatically mean you have a real client A listing interview where honesty about an overpriced renovation almost cost the appointment Why fair housing means running your process the exact same way every single time What to do when a seller's neighbors are talking, and it starts affecting your reputation Key Quotes & Takeaways: "I don't like to list houses. I like to sell them." -Alissa "I want you to find somebody that you like, that you trust." -Alissa "Just because they sent you a human doesn't mean they sent you a client." -Katy "It's really up to you what you can endure." -Katy "You have to do it the same every time, whether you're busy or you're slow." -Alissa   Products, People & Previous Episodes Mentioned: Episode 113: Be the Boss (hustlehumblypodcast.com/113) Episode 210: Buyer Consultation (hustlehumblypodcast.com/210) Episode 143: Working with Sellers: Pre-Listing Prep (hustlehumblypodcast.com/143) Episode 79: Buyers, Buyers, Buyers (hustlehumblypodcast.com/79) Episode 365: Check Yourself Before You Wreck Your Business (hustlehumblypodcast.com/365) Build Your Own Business (BYOB), live starting September 8th (hustlehumblypodcast.com/byob-waitlist) Hustle Humbly Community (hustlehumblypodcast.com/membership)   This episode's toast is from Allison, honoring her mom, April Jeera, a Realtor in the Austin and San Antonio areas and president-elect of the Women's Council of Realtors Austin.

    Brad Setser follows Chinese trade closer than just about anyone else on earth, and he thinks we're in the early days of a China Shock 2.0. The first China Shock was when China came to dominate low-end manufacturing in the 2000s, filling American shelves with cheap clothes, toys and electronics, while devastating American factory towns. This new China Shock could be even more destabilizing. China now dominates advanced manufacturing: electric vehicles, batteries, solar panels. It's outcompeting nearly all high-end manufacturing around the world, and other countries are just starting to feel the pain. And China isn't slowing down. It's moving into software, too. Its frontier A.I. models are neck and neck with American ones. China's success poses a serious threat to the economies and domestic politics of countries around the world. So what should those countries do about it?  Setser is a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations.He served in top trade and economic roles in the Biden and Obama administrations. And he is widely cited across the field as one of the top analysts of China's economy and trade practices.
