الأكثر استماعا في عام 2025:أعلنت الحكومة الفيدرالية أن البرنامج التجريبي لدمج اللاجئين وتوطينهم في المجتمع، المعروف باسم CRISP ، سيصبح دائمًا، كجزء من عملية إعادة توطين اللاجئين. كان من المقرر في الأصل أن ينتهي البرنامج التجريبي لبرنامج رعاية اللاجئين في المجتمع في حزيران/ يونيو 2025، لكن الحكومة الفيدرالية عرضت تمويلًا آخر بقيمة مليون دولار لمواصلة تشغيل البرنامج حتى حزيران/ يونيو 2026. ما أهمية هذا البرنامج وكيف يخلق شراكة حقيقية بين الحكومة وافراد المجتمع لدعم اللاجئين ودمجهم في المجتمع الأسترالي؟

Welcome back to Bri Books! When you're hosting, choosing wine can feel daunting. Whether it's a dinner party, work event, last-minute gathering, or impromptu holiday shenanigans, here's the simple framework I rely on that never fails. In this episode, we'll cover: The three-bottle wine buying formula (red, white, wildcard) How to taste wine at home: My 4 Pillars of Place: Temperature, Terrain, Soil, and Touch How to build a wine list for parties or dinner How to Build a Wine Menu: Bri's 3-Bottle Formula To avoid overwhelm at the wine shop, use this formula: One white wine One red wine One wildcard. That's it. Simple, flexible, and stress free. Let's dig in: Crisp white as the Opener. This white wine is your opener—the bottle people drink while they arrive, settle in, chat, and snack. White wins are crisp, flexible, and food-friendly. I look for wines with high acidity and good minimality, the kind that leave you gently puckering and refreshed. A crisp white wine creates an immediate sense of ease and joy at the table. My go-to white wine categories: Chablis Gruner Vetliner Albrino Sauv blanc, from Loire Why this works: These wines pair well with almost anything: cheese, vegetables, oysters, seafood They don't overpower food They make excellent aperitif wines They set the tone for the meal by brightening flavors and waking up the palette Red wine as the main event. Your red wine is your main event. You're looking for a crowd-pleaser that's food friendly, adaptable, and easy to drink. it can be tempting to bring a big, heavy, dramatic, oak-driven red-but gatherings call for something more communal. Look for reds with: Medium body moderate tannins high drinkability Red wines I recommend: Boujulais Tempranillo (especially rioja joven) Etna Rosso reds Cotes du Rhone These red wines shine with soups and stews, tomato based dishes, roasted vegetables, poultry, and cozy winter meals. The wildcard: the personality hire wine. Go for an orange wine, a sparkling red like Lambrusco, a pet-nat, or a liter bottle of something fabulous and weird like a Madiera dessert wine. Bubbles are always a win. A dessert wine course moves your guests through the final stages of the evening, and a liter bottle keeps things flowing. Use the wildcard to spark conversation about what there wine comes from, how it's made, and why it tastes the way it does.   How to Do an At-Home Wine Tasting Using the 4 Pillars of Place My 4 pillars framework helps you understand where your wine comes from, even without the label. Temperature: Look at the wine. Color intensity can give you climate clues. Terroir: Smell the wine. Aromas reflect whether grapes grew near the sea, mountains, forests, or plains ltitude = floral, lifted flavors Warm climate = ripe, deeply drinkable Coastal = salty, breezy, fresh finish Mountain = Sharp, linear, mineral Valley floor = lush, smooth Volcanic = smoky, stony, earthy flavors Soil: Taste the wine. Texture reveals the soil type. As a reminder: limestone = chalky, saline wine Volcanic = smoky, ashy flavors in the wine Granite = crunchy, bright, often 'cool' flavors in the wine Clay = smooth, plush, slightly pucker-y in flavor High a Touch: Notice winemaking styl. Is it bright? Clean? Raw? Heavy sediment? Is it sharp? Does it grip? Touch is the easiest pillar to learn and the quickest path to understanding what you like.

In another special bonus interview episode AJ interviews the wonderful Daniel Hill who appeared in two episodes of Secret Army: Too Near Home and The Big One. In the latter he played Flt. Sgt. Bert Lewis, the airman who encounters Brandt shortly after the death of his wife and son. As well as recalling shooting that memorable scene he remembers in some detail what it was like to work with actors, Michael Culver, Bernard Hepton, Clifford Rose,  directors Viktors Ritelis and Michael E. Briant, writer N. J. Crisp and producer Gerry Glaister. But there's so much more to this interview than Secret Army, Daniel also discusses working with Tom Baker and Lalla Ward on the lost Doctor Who story Shada, the thriller serial Blood Money and playing Tom Redburn in the opening episodes of Tenko. Finally he also describes how he left drama behind for comedy and Gerry Glaister's reaction to that news...

Established in 2011 by General Manager and Brewster Claire Monk, Welbeck Abbey Brewery is situated on the Welbeck Abbey Estate.  Founded as a Premonstratensian monastery in 1153, after the Dissolution, the Abbey was bought by Bess of Hardwick's youngest son, Sir Charles Cavendish.As with many country estates, over time, the house and grounds have become a popular tourist attraction, pulling in crowds of people for a quintessentially English spot of afternoon tea and a gentle potter around.  Situated to the rear of the sprawling buildings, you'll find Welbeck Abbey Brewery, set in the heart of an artisan estate-village that produces specialist foods and crafts in a beautiful rural setting. Producing hand crafted ales using the estate's own spring water and a unique strain of nurtured yeast, the brewery now produces over 17,000 pints of award-winning ales each week, which they supply to local pubs, restaurants, and specialist bottle shops across the region and beyond.In this episode of the Hop Forward Podcast, we talk about the power of place with Claire and how they've built the brewery brand and marketing around the story of the abbey estate, while remaining relevant to drinkers in both the beer and pub space, as well as tourists who don't know the difference between an ale and a lager.We also chat about how swathes of people leaving the hospitality industry are leading to pub closures and how breweries finding it difficult to attract new talent onto their teams.Also on this episode, Nick catches up with David Griggs, Technical Director from Crisp Malt, to discuss malt consistency and the steps brewers can take in the brewhouse before blaming their barley!THIS WEEK'S EPISODE IS PROUDLY BROUGHT TO YOU BY:Charles Faram & Co (charlesfaram.com)Supplying hops for over 150 years, Charles Faram offers a vast range of nitrogen-flushed hop varieties from the UK, Europe, New Zealand, and the USA.Crisp Malt (crispmalt.com)Since 1870, Crisp has blended tradition with innovation, producing malts like Chevallier Heritage and Clear Choice Malt.FOLLOW HOP FORWARDhopforward.beer | LinkedIn | BlueSky | Instagram

Double Tap Episode 439 This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Gideon Optics, Primary Arms, Night Fision, Blue Alpha, Bowers Group, and Second Call Defense   Welcome to Double Tap, episode 439! Your hosts tonight are Jeremy Pozderac, Jon Patton and me Shawn Herrin, welcome to the show! Jon Patton - https://theguncollective.com/ Dear WLS Hunter M - Wanting to upgrade my Ender 3 Pro to a Bambu X1C, but I am hesitant to buy one if there is a possibility of blocking 2A prints. I have seen where some people suggest never connecting it to the internet and only printing off of SD cards but it seems like you could be missing out on a ton of features. Is it worth it to connect it to the internet or play it safe and only use it offline? If it was connected and they pushed out anti-gun restrictions how could you get the printer back to printing freedom? Conner R - What are your go to snacks or meals when hiking, camping, hunting, or rucking? What are you favorite meals in general? Thanks!l Uvuana Suqit - Why does every host on the Firearms Radio Network seem to have an astigmatism? And a bunch of other media people in the firearms industry in general. I hear constantly about not being able to use red dots because of astigmatism, making the dot not a perfect circle, and some other shape. Just want to say that the projection on the glass for red dots won't be a perfect circle with the way they are designed/manufactured, and the “dot” has a weird shape because it is projecting a bunch of tiny dots to a general area on the glass to make up the dot. It does not create a perfect circle. And if you focus on the “dot,” then you will see “imperfection” vs looking at the target where the “imperfection” will be nonexistent, with the general dot shape being over the target. I'm just curious if everyone is mistaking this inherent design of the red dot projection for something that is wrong with their eyes. And when every host says they have an astigmatism, it just seems odd. Karl F - The conflict in Ukraine has demonstrated the usefulness of small drones when it comes to both reconnaissance and delivery of payloads. This usefulness could definitely extend beyond combat to a SHTF scenario. Have any of you considered adding a drone to your gear collection?#blamecanada Oopsie Daisy - If you wanted to escape thermal imaging, do you think throwing a mylar poncho over the wool Five Star Alterations poncho would have a greater effect on reducing your thermal signature? For no one in particular, I'm interested to hear all of your opinions on this. Nate B - How far back is too far back for barrel porting? I understand you'd like the port as far forward as possible as that is where it's most beneficial (better tilt point) but I've seen ported Glocks and other pistols where they have multiple, tiny holes that seem to be fairly close to the chamber. Also ports > comps Anthony L - I wanted to ask what sites you use for the 3d print files. Thank you   The winner of this week's swag pack is Oopsie Daisy!

In this episode we sit down with Carl McCluskey, the quietly obsessive mastermind behind Crisp, the cult London pizzeria that has gone from a backstreet Hammersmith pub to one of the most sought after tables in the city. Carl walks us through the whirlwind first three weeks of his new Marlborough site and the sheer graft behind bringing a tiny pop up operation into a polished, high pressure restaurant setting. From staff struggles and stretching stations held together with rope to finally stepping into a dream kitchen, it is a rare look at the leap from local hero to full scale powerhouse.Carl breaks down the craft behind his pizzas, including the infamous Vecna, born by accident during a chaotic Halloween party when he grabbed hot honey and burrata as a last minute experiment. He shares the Reddit conspiracies about his secret hydration levels, the ongoing myth that his dough sits in trays, and why he refuses to reveal the tiny tweaks that make Crisp different. He explains how his cousin Pedro became the best oven man in the world, how the team makes up to forty litres of hot honey a week, and why scaling too fast would destroy the magic.The conversation turns to the business side, where Carl opens up about the heartbreak of leaving the original Hammersmith pub after impossible lease demands from Stonegate. He tells the wild stories that came with success, from seven hour queues to customers offering a thousand pounds in cash for a table. He recalls the day Dave Portnoy's 8.1 review changed everything, the surreal moment an American number rang asking for margaritas, and the sudden global spike in calls from fans desperate to try his pizza. There is also the now legendary saga of the toilet graffiti that became a t-shirt, a Wi-Fi code, and a small legal dispute.Carl's life story threads through the episode, from his days as a semi pro footballer playing alongside the Wealdstone Raider to being raised in his nan's old school London pub. He reveals the New York and LA inspirations behind his food, why an all day John and Vinnie's style concept could be his next move, and the places he eats on his own perfect food weekend. Honest, funny, and completely unguarded, this is Carl McCluskey at his best. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's a Wizard shop Peter! Special guest this month Ben Potter joins Pete and Spoons to tell all about his exciting new venture, The Bunker collectibles shop, just opened in Hogwarts - err sorry, Royston near Barnsley in the frozen North. The show opens with a remembrance of poster artist Drew Struzan, who recently passed, and a chat about the lads' favourite posters. Rich expands the New Acquisitions section to take in any old tat, and there's another international Face-Off, taking in Croatia, Venezuela, Israel and the land of Dog Chow. Andy P hosts a colourful cardback quiz, and the NA shout-outs feature some tasty 32-backs, a cracking carnival mirror, a trio of vinyl capes, an exciting early bird, and a lovely lenticular poster.

Farthest From, featured finds from Vectis, and re-living Echo Live. Licensee this month is Burtons Biscuits, who produced a range of ‘Crisp biscuits sprinkled with mint sugar' in Star Wars packaging, popular with 80s kids in Britain. This sparks an outbreak of biscuity nostalgia among the lads, and cookie cravings. Plenty of Zollux and banter along the way, find the podcast in all the usual places.

What if the breakthrough you've been chasing wasn't hding in another strategy, another round of inner work, or another 'push harder' season ... but in letting yourself be held? Most women aren't — they're under-supported. And once you understand how your Human Design profile impacts the way you thrive in community, everything starts to click.  In this episode of The Couragecast, I share the most unexpected shift that changed my business, my healing, and my entire nervous sytem this year: being part of life giving community.  We explore how your Human Design profile actually reveals the way you grow, rise, and regulate best — whether you're a 1/3, 2/4, 4/6, or 6/2. I break down the mistakes so many of make (like confusing independence with isolation), how different profiles are uniquely wired for community, and why your next level isn't meant to be done alone.  I'm sharing personal stories from my group programs, and the energetic truth behind why transformation accelerates inside the right rooms — especially when collective intention, shared energy, and co-regulation are present.  This episode is for the heart-led, spiritually minded leader who wants to grow their business, heal their money stories, regulate their nervous system, and lead from deeper level of embodiment in 2026.  We dive into: Why women feel stuck when really they are under-supported. Human Design profiles to help you grow in community. Why co-regulation accelerates your transformation. How to choose the right community.  Why community becomes a quantum field. If 2026 is the year you stop doing everything alone and finally step into rooms that match the woman you are becoming, Align & Empower is where that shift happens.  This 5-month coaching mastermind is designed for spiritually minded women ready to rise with community, regulate with support, and expand through aligned leadership. If you want to be held, seen, supported and challenged this is your room. Spots open in January with early access available now at the 2025 rate. Message me to claim your space.

Have you ever wondered why you keep getting pulled into the same cycle — no matter how much you grow, learn, or heal? This episode meets you right in that tension. You'll hear why the patterns you're repeating aren't personal failures, but subconscious reponses your mind and body created to protect you long before you ever had language for them.  As you listen, you'll begin to see your story through a different lens — one that brings relief, clarity, and compassion for the younger version of you who learned these patterns, and the current version of you who's ready to shift them for good. In this episode dive into: Why your subconscious runs the show — and how to interrupt old patterns.   How trauma, conditioning, and inherited beliefs shape your self-perception.  A simple reframing process to anchor new aligned beliefs. Daily integration questions to rewire your identity over the next 21 days.

Temperatures will drop to around 38 degrees Fahrenheit, with winds shifting and becoming calm, then picking up from the south around 6 miles per hour after midnight.

Learn how to make the Viral Pillowcase Turkey recipe, plan to bring this dish filled with your homemade meats and the perfect Gift Ideas for the hunters & non-hunters in your family! Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! Season 5, Episode 264 Viral Pillowcase Turkey Recipe: The Trendy Thanksgiving & Christmas Turkey Everyone Is Trying If turkey is on the menu this Thanksgiving, Christmas, or holiday season, there's a trending cooking method sweeping the internet—perfect for home cooks. Meet the Viral Pillowcase Turkey Recipe, a unique preparation that delivers an incredibly moist, flavorful holiday bird. What Is the Pillowcase Turkey Cooking Method?  According to recent reports, including features in major outlets, home cooks are going viral for marinating their Thanksgiving turkeys inside clean pillowcases. The trend, started by NBC's Chef Elizabeth Heiskell, involves: Slathering a whole turkey with rich butter Wrapping the bird in strips of smoky bacon Soaking a clean cotton pillowcase in butter, wine, and chicken broth Sealing the turkey inside the saturated pillowcase for roasting Once cooked low and slow, the turkey emerges tender, juicy, and ready for a final crisp in the oven. This quirky cooking hack has become a holiday sensation from coast to coast, especially among cooks looking for fool-proof turkey methods: How to Make the Viral Pillowcase Turkey Inspired by Better Homes & Gardens, here's a simple overview of how to prepare the trending Pillowcase Turkey: Butter the Turkey: Generously coat a whole turkey with softened butter. Wrap with Bacon: Layer bacon slices over the entire bird. Prepare the Pillowcase: Use a clean, 100% cotton pillowcase or cheesecloth. Soak it in a mixture of melted butter, wine, and chicken broth. Wrap & Roast: Place the buttered, bacon-wrapped turkey inside the soaked pillowcase. Roast according to weight, basting periodically. Crisp the Skin: Remove the pillowcase near the end of cooking and finish the turkey in a hot oven to crisp the bacon and skin. This method ensures a perfectly moist and flavorful holiday turkey, ideal for family gatherings. Homemade Meats for Holiday Gatherings Whether you harvest your own game or simply enjoy homemade meats, serving venison, pork, or beef turned into jerky, sausage, and summer sausage makes an impressive and hearty holiday spread. Build the Ultimate Charcuterie Board For gatherings, create a rustic board using any wooden slab or tray. Include: Homemade meats (jerky, smoked sausage, summer sausage) Cubed cheeses (cheddar, jalapeño cheese, pepper jack) Fresh grapes Dried fruits Mixed nuts Crackers & seasoned pretzels Dipping sauces like Mickey's Mustard This Charcuterie highlights your harvest in a yummy arrangement! Perfect Gift Ideas for Hunters  Looking for a thoughtful gift for the hunter in your life? A tool that helps process and preserve harvested meat is always appreciated. Top Pick: Cosori Food Dehydrator One of our favorite tools of the year is the Cosori Food Dehydrator—a reliable machine perfect for making large batches of tender, flavorful jerky. We use the 10-tray model (16.2 sq. ft. of drying space), and it easily handles up to 12 lbs of meat at once. This dehydrator has been a game-changer for us, Tigger & BEC. We purchased it in March 2024 and have used it every two weeks since. It consistently produces perfect jerky—and it makes an excellent gift for both men and women who enjoy processing their own wild game. Buy it HERE on Amazon.

Learning To Celebrate Others Without Self Judgement In this episode, I explore what really happens when you witness someone else's success and suddenly feel behind — even when you're genuinely happy for them.  If comparison has ever left you questioning your own worth, your timing, or your progress, this conversation will help you return to truth and alignment. I also share a deeply personal story about being in a high-level mastermind and watching others hit massive milestones while I internally battled self-doubt and internal pressure. In this episode I explain how comparison activates the nervous system, disconnects you from your purpose, and shifts you into proving, pushing or shutting down.  You'll learn how to reframe someone els'e success as evidence of possibility, how celebration becomes and energetic activator for abundance, and practical tools to stay rooted in your own divine path.  This episode is for the woman who wants to feel grounded, confident, and connected to her own rhythm — no matter what others around her are achieving.  We dive into: Why comparison is a normal yet misaligned response How nervous system triggers impact, self-worth and creativity How to redefine success and trust your own divine timing The energetic power of celebrating others Embodiment tools to stay rooted in your own path How to shift from 'why not me' to 'thank you for showing me what is possible' Your next level is created from Alignment not effort.  The Alignment Intensive is where we begin this work. A 90-minute private session to realign your energy, clarify your next steps, and activate your next level leadership — with two weeks of Voxer support for integration.  Book A Session  Connect with me: @andreacrispcoach + www.andreacrisp.ca

By early 2026, substance use disorder (SUD) providers, health plans, clinicians, health information exchanges (HIEs), and vendors must meet new federal privacy standards for SUD treatment records or face Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)-level enforcement and penalties. On this episode, Epstein Becker Green attorneys Lisa Pierce Reisz, David Shillcutt, and Laura DePonio join Nichole Sweeney, General Counsel and Chief Privacy Officer at CRISP, to break down the 42 CFR Part 2 final rule: what's changing, what's staying the same, and what organizations often miss. The group explains how the final rule aligns with (but does not replace) HIPAA, why patient consent remains central, and what new operational risks are emerging. Key Takeaways: Adoption of HIPAA Penalties: Part 2 now adopts HIPAA's enforcement and penalty structure.

What if your firm's biggest threat isn't poor strategy or weak talent — but misaligned leadership? As part of the “Road to the Summit”, a special series ramping up to the 2025 Game Changers Summit this November 12–13, we're revisiting some of the most powerful conversations ever featured at our events. In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Jessica Mogill takes the stage at the 2024 Game Changers Summit to expose the hidden cost of poor leadership.  She breaks down why high performers don't automatically make great leaders, how fear-based management destroys culture, and what it really takes to build alignment at every level. Through real stories from inside Crisp, Jessica reveals how small cracks at the top can ripple through an entire organization, and what leaders can do to stop it. Here's what you'll learn: Why your strongest performers can become your weakest leaders without the right mindset and training How to identify cracks in leadership before they fracture your entire team What it takes to rebuild alignment, trust, and performance from the top down Want to create lasting impact through leadership that lifts everyone around you? Start here. ---- Show Notes: 01:44 – Jessica introduces the theme: the danger of promoting top performers into leadership without the right mindset. 03:02 – Jessica connects “The Boys” to high performers who turn destructive without balance and empathy. 06:35 – “A crack at the leadership level is a canyon to the rest of the team.” She explains how misaligned leadership ripples across the company. 07:56 – Global cost of poor leadership: $7 trillion. Jessica shares how poor management drains performance and trust. 11:32 – Skip-level meetings reveal hidden issues. She explains how transparency rebuilt alignment. 17:08 – The story of “Casey,” the fear-based leader who created a culture of fear and disengagement. 24:57 – The peacekeeper leader “Lisa” avoids conflict, causing accountability to erode. 32:11 – The veteran leader “Jake” clings to the past and kills innovation through resistance to change. 39:35 – Jessica closes with her reflection: “What you tolerate today will become your standard tomorrow.” Links & Resources: The Boys (Amazon Prime Video) Developing the Leader Within You 2.0 by John C.

How many grams per litre of dry-hopping creates those big juice DIPA flavours?  What cereal should we use to create a self-stable haze?  What are the correct additives and E-numbers that will give us the right hue to our teal coloured slush-puppy sour...?  These questions are great but unless we dig deeper to unearth how we can grow our raw ingredients in unfavourable conditions, then perhaps synthetic-coloured beers are all we can look to in a dystopian future where smoothie-sours are the norm.In this episode, we explore why agricultural research is imperative for the future of brewing.  Specifically looking at hops, Nick hosts a round table discussion with Will Rogers from Charles Faram, Duncan Westbury - Dean of Land and Property Management at the Royal Agricultural University - and Scientific Researcher, Josh Brett to answer this question.THIS WEEK'S EPISODE IS PROUDLY BROUGHT TO YOU BY:Charles Faram & Co (charlesfaram.com)Supplying hops for over 150 years, Charles Faram offers a vast range of nitrogen-flushed hop varieties from the UK, Europe, New Zealand, and the USA.Crisp Malt (crispmalt.com)Since 1870, Crisp has blended tradition with innovation, producing malts like Chevallier Heritage and Clear Choice Malt.FOLLOW HOP FORWARDhopforward.beer | LinkedIn | BlueSky | Instagram

It's Monday, Let's raise a glass to the beginning of another week. It's time to unscrew, uncork or saber a bottle and let's begin Exploring the Wine Glass!  We're heading back to Spain today! Yeah! So far, we've traveled through Galicia's green coastlines, wandered through the cider-soaked hills of Asturias, and hiked Cantabria's misty valleys—but today, we're heading somewhere truly unique. A place that feels like its own little country—because, well, it kind of is. Welcome to País Vasco, also known as the Basque Country. Where the food is world-class, the language predates Latin, and the wines? Oh the wines! Crisp, coastal, and packed with character. This is a place where the Atlantic Ocean crashes into steep green hills, where locals pour wine from impossible heights, and where the language sounds like it was written by Tolkien after a night of pintxos and Txakoli. So, grab your glass, maybe pour something with a little spritz to it, and let's dive into the story of Basque wine — a region that's small in size but enormous in character.

Our regular Easy Eats contributor Kelly Gibney is back from her holiday and joins Susana to share this recipe.

Tonight, we are trying a Kabinett Riesling from Mosel, Germany. Just for some added fun we also have an Emma Reichart Dry Riesling from Rheinhessen, Germany. So what is a Kabinett (Cabby – Net) and what are other words used to describe the sweetness in German wines. Trocken is the German word for dry. Kabinett has crisp acidity, green apple, citrus and delicate floral notes. Good for an aperitif and pair nicely with light seafood dishes and salads. Dry to a little sweet. Spatlese is a late harvested wine so will have riper stone fruit, touches of honeyed and tropical notes, and acidity. These wines pair well with spicy foods and soft cheeses. Auslese is made from fully ripe fruit and may even have some “Nobel rot”. It has flavors of apricot, honey, and caramelized apple. Pairs with desserts and strong blue cheese. Hint: you can often tell the level of sweetness from the alcohol level. Anything over 11% alcohol will typically be dry. Less than 11% will probably have some level of sweetness. Tonight, our two wines are: 2023 Karl Kaspar Riesling Kabinett. It is an off-dry Riesling with a classic Mosel profile. Intense mineral and floral aromas, low alcohol and a wonderful balance between sweetness and crisp acidity. The grapes come from two single vineyard sites of stoney, slate soil. Grapes of different ripeness levels are used. 45% Riesling Spatlese from middle Mosel and 55% Riesling Kabinett from the lower Mosel. Fermented in stainless steel tanks. Serve well chilled. Excellent aperitif or with fish or poultry. 2024 Emma Reichart Dry Riesling. This wine was purchased from Trader Joe's for $5.99 and comes from the Rheinhessen region of Germany. Flavors of peach, citrus, and slate. Crisp. The wine received a Bronze Award and a score of 88 from Decanter. This is considered a medium-dry wine with residual sugar from 5 to 18 g/L. It has 11.5% alcohol.We both liked the wines and gave them a three rating. Denise liked the Emma Reichart, but I found it to be a little sweet and lacked the balance of the Karl Kaspar. Next week, we return to the USA. We will taste the hybrid wine grape Baco Noir. The wine comes from New York, and we will also talk about its wine industry.

Many of us have heard of Jonathan Edwards and the American revival known as the Great Awakening. Usually remembered for his sermon with the scary title: "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God," there is so much more to say about Jonathan Edwards. He was not just a pastor and theologian. He was also a missionary, a biographer, and the president of a college. Today, he is regarded as one of North America's most brilliant minds. Find out more about Jonathan Edwards as Trinity, Grace, and Sean talk with Dr. Oliver Crisp, Professor of Analytic Theology at the University of Saint Andrews, Scotland. Thanks to the generosity of Reformed Fellowship, we are pleased to offer to our listeners a copy of Simonetta's biography of Jonathan Edwards, written for young readers. Reformed Fellowship is dedicated to the publication and distribution of Reformed materials, and they are excited to offer a line of children's materials for the first time since their founding in 1951. Register here to win a copy.    Show Notes: Dr. Crisp's favorite book by Jonathan Edwards is The Freedom of the Will.  In addition to being a learned scholar, Dr. Crisp is a talented artist. In fact, the painting of Jonathan Edwards used for our episode today was actually created by Dr. Crisp!

As the seasons change, I've been reminded how deeply nature reflects our own inner cycles. In this episode of The Couragecast, I'm sharing what it means to slow down, go inward, and trust your own timing — especially when everything in you wants to keep moving forward. This conversation is about the power of reflection and alignment — how allowing yourself to pause and reconnect with your natural rhythm creates space for true spiritual growth and expansion. I'll be sharing what this has looked like for me personally, as I've been moving through a new season in both life and business, and how making more space for the spiritual is shaping everything I create. If you've been feeling called to rest, release, or realign, this episode will help you remember that your next level of abundance and clarity doesn't come from doing more — it comes from listening inward and trusting what's meant for you. In this episode, I share: How the change of seasons mirror our own inner transformation The importance of slowing down before stepping into something new How to stay in alignment with what's truly meant for you Why reflection and rest can actually create greater expansion How I'm personally embracing this season of change. If you're craving deeper connection and community, I'd love for you to join me inside Courage + Conversations — it's our free space to reflect, share, and grow together through real, heart-led dialogue.

What if the Universe doesn't see difficulty the way we do? What if the same energy that helps you manifest abundance in one area of life can just as easily create miracles in another? In this episode, I'm sharing the lessons (some might call them divine winks) and beautiful synchronicities that unfolded during my High Vibe weekend, my New York City trip, and a much needed spa day at Thermea and how they reminded me that there truly is no order of difficulty in manifesting. After a week filled with expansion, connection and celebration I dive into: The magic of divine timing. Why there's no order of difficulty in manifestation. How to integrate big lessons before moving on. The value of community for entrepreneurship. Why rest, regulation and reflection are essential to manifestation. Whether you've just come back from an event or trip, or you are experiencing a big energetic up-level, this episode will remind you to slow down and trust what's unfolding, and celebrate your expansion. "When you find yourself manifesting with ease in one area, ask yourself where else can I allow it to be easy? There is no order of difficulty."

Finding Everything You're Looking For Pastor Gary Crisp October 26, 2025 Sunday Evening

I'm working with a client who is a gifted communicator with years of real-world experience. He kept hearing that paid speaking is off limits unless you are already well known, can sell tickets by name alone, or have a massive audience. I knew that wasn't the full story. So I brought in someone I trust and have known for nearly 15 years, Grant Baldwin, to walk through what actually works today for getting paid to speak without celebrity status. Grant has trained thousands of speakers and built The Speaker Lab into a respected, enduring brand, one that has ranked on the Inc. 5000 list of the fastest, growing privately held companies in the United States for five consecutive years. What This Episode Is… And Who It's For This conversation is designed for strong communicators who are comfortable on a stage and want to translate that skill into paid opportunities. If that's you, you'll find a clear framework, realistic fee guidance, what event planners actually want, and the specific outreach and follow-up cadence that moves you from “aspiring” to “booked.” Core Mindset Shift: From “Be Famous” To “Solve A Specific Problem” Event planners aren't always evaluating your follower count. They are reducing risk. They want a reliable speaker who can solve one specific problem for one specific audience and make the organizer look like a hero for choosing wisely. If Oprah or a former president is headlining, tickets sell on name alone. For the rest of us, the job is to solve a defined problem so well that attendees are grateful and organizers are relieved they chose us. The trap to avoid: “I can speak to anyone about anything.” Don't be a buffet. Be a steakhouse. A steakhouse does one thing exceptionally well. Most buffets do many things mediocre. Your positioning must signal sharp focus, not “I do it all.” Practical implication: Choose a niche problem and audience, and let everything else in your marketing reinforce that narrow, valuable focus. The SPEAK Framework Grant Teaches (And How To Apply It) Grant uses a five-part framework. I'll restate it with my commentary and application steps you can take immediately. S - Select a problem to solve Pick one clear problem for one identifiable audience. Validate it by confirming that organizations actually hire speakers on that topic. Avoid niche passions that no one budgets for on stage. Look for the Venn overlap between what you love, what you're skilled at, and what event buyers pay for. Quick validators you can run this week: Make a list of real conferences or associations where your topic would fit. Start with local, state, and regional events rather than national headliners that pay six figures to celebrity keynoters. Identify a few working speakers one or two steps ahead of you as benchmarks. If no one exists in your proposed niche, that's not a blue ocean. It's likely a market that doesn't buy talks on that topic. P - Prepare your talk Design a talk that offers a concrete solution to the chosen audience's felt need. Make sure the talk aligns with what planners already hire speakers to address. Your talk is a product. It must reduce the organizer's risk and fulfill the promise in the program description. Tip: If there's a personal subtopic you care about that isn't a main-stage draw, embed it as a 5 to 10 percent segment within a widely purchased theme, rather than making it the headline. This blends your passion with market reality without performing a bait-and-switch. E - Establish yourself as the expert You need a sharp, professional website and a demo video. Event planners who hire speakers will compare you to several other speakers. Your materials must look as good or better than your fee peers, because people judge books by their covers, especially under risk. You do not need to spend tens of thousands, but you do need clarity and quality. What to include: Crisp positioning: audience, problem, outcome. A talk page with titles, descriptions, and learning outcomes. Select testimonials that match your audience and topic. A short, high-quality demo reel showing stage presence and audience engagement. A - Acquire paid speaking gigs This is where most speakers falter. Do not wait passively for inquiries. Identify target events, start conversations, and follow up with discipline. Smaller events are not “lesser.” They are accessible and often pay in the $1,000 to $5,000 range for quality speakers who fit well. Those reps build momentum and referrals. A starter outreach line that works: “When will you start reviewing speakers for your [season/year] event?” You're aligning to their process, not forcing a pitch at the wrong time. If they say, “in three months,” get explicit permission to follow up, then actually follow up in three months with a helpful, short note. They won't expect you to do it. Showing up reliably previews how good you'll be to work with. My added tactic: Use Facebook groups where your audience gathers to crowdsource a list of live events they already attend. Ask, “If someone wanted to fully immerse in solving [problem], what live events should they attend?” Now you have a prospect list drawn from the market itself. Then apply the outreach process above. I share the exact post volume thresholds and how I used this approach during my Free The Dream years. K - Know when to scale Speaking can be the whole business or the front end of a larger business. Some speakers aim for many gigs and fee growth. Others use speaking primarily to acquire coaching, consulting, or long-term clients worth tens of thousands, which can dwarf the fee itself. Decide your model early, then shape your targeting and topic accordingly. What To Charge When You're Getting Started Set expectations realistically. Most speakers who are early in their professional journey charge between $1,000 and $5,000 for the first several paid gigs, with growth as reps, results, and marketing assets improve. Fees vary by industry: corporations generally pay more than nonprofits, for example. Your website, demo video, testimonials, and relevance to that organizer's audience all factor into perceived value. If you are already collecting checks in the $10,000 to $25,000 range, you're likely in a pond that routinely books at that level, with the credentials and references to match. Your materials and proof must stand shoulder to shoulder with other speakers priced similarly. The decision-maker is weighing risk. Your job is to make the yes feel safe. How Event Planners Think: Risk, Fit, Proof Event planners and committees are in the risk mitigation business. They need to justify why choosing you is safe. The fastest way to help them feel safe is to present tightly aligned positioning, a clear solution for their audience, relevant testimonials, and a professional demo that shows what they will see on their stage. If you're a known quantity in their industry, you reduce risk further. Translation: Your niche experience matters. Even if you want to speak beyond your current industry later, start where you already have credibility and connections. Build momentum there, then expand. Be The Steakhouse, Not The Buffet We swapped a memorable story about a dinner in Vegas that nails this point. A top steakhouse has a short menu. It's exceptional at one thing. Too many speakers showcase a menu of twenty topics across every domain. That spreads you thin and confuses buyers. You don't become referable as “the person who solves X.” Choose X. Then keep saying X. Building Momentum: Breakouts, Workshops, Local and Regional Stages Keynotes are the glory slot, but many buyers hire outstanding breakout or workshop speakers they've never heard of. Target smaller, local, or state-level events where budgets are sensible and competition is less fierce. Use these to gather testimonials and in-industry proof. The more you speak, the more you speak. People in the seats are often the next bookers. Referrals compound. Proactive Prospecting And Follow-Up: Exactly How To Do It Most speakers fail because they wait. Here's a workable cadence: Build a prospect list of the right-fit events. Send a short, no-pressure opener: “When will you start reviewing speakers?” Capture their answer and permission to follow up. Follow up exactly when promised with a crisp, helpful note. Keep the thread warm with brief check-ins aligned to their process, not your pitch calendar. This shows the organizer what it's like to work with you. Reliability beats bravado. My supplement to this: Source events by asking active Facebook groups where your audience congregates which conferences they actually attend. Then research and contact those events using the cadence above. Two Viable Business Models: Fee-First vs. Lead-Gen-First Fee-first speakers optimize for the check, the travel schedule, and fee growth over time. Lead-gen-first speakers optimize for speaking to rooms filled with ideal buyers, then convert into higher lifetime value offers such as retainers, advisory, or premium programs. In some niches, a single client is worth more than the speaking fee. Choose the model that matches your goals and build your targeting and talk to support it. Host Your Own Stage To Create Reps And Proof You don't have to wait for an invitation. Design a focused one-day workshop around your problem-audience fit, sell tickets, and put yourself on stage. This both validates your topic and produces assets, testimonials, and compelling footage for your reel. Tactical Tips, Stories, And Subtleties You Might Miss On First Listen Expectations prevent discouragement. Speaker fees range from a few hundred to hundreds of thousands. Unless your name sells tickets, start where the market is and grow. Manage expectations early so you stay persistent long enough to break through. Industry matters. Corporate, association, education, nonprofit, faith, and government markets all have different norms and ranges. Choose the pond that fits your topic, background, and goals. Marketing assets are not optional. At minimum, have a professional, focused site and a tight demo. Decision-makers compare several speakers side by side. Present like a pro. Momentum is real. The more stages you're on, the more invitations you'll receive. Some referrals hit years later. Plant seeds now. Harvest later. Start where you have leverage. If your career was in real estate, restaurants, law, healthcare, or tech, begin there. You speak the language, know the players, and reduce buyer risk. You can always evolve your niche after you build proof. Breakouts build keynotes. Deliver great breakout sessions that solve concrete problems. That creates case studies and word of mouth that lead to higher-fee keynote opportunities. Small and local is a feature, not a bug. Many high-quality regional events have budgets in the $1,000 to $5,000 range and want excellent speakers who fit. Those are perfect on-ramps. Be personable and reliable. The subtle signals you send in email cadence, brevity, and clarity matter as much as your sizzle reel. Planners notice. Use audience hubs to find events. Facebook groups with significant daily activity are a goldmine for discovering exactly which conferences your market actually attends. Ask the right question, harvest the list, then do surgical outreach. Speaking as impact. Opportunities come in all shapes and sizes. Grant shared doing a virtual session for inmates in a county jail, and he has also spoken to arenas of 10,000. There isn't one “correct” venue. There are aligned venues for your mission and model. If You're A Strong Communicator And Ready To Start, Do This In The Next 7 Days Define your niche: Write a one-sentence positioning statement: “I help [audience] solve [problem] so they can [outcome].” Keep it painfully specific. List 25 target events: Use Google, LinkedIn, and active Facebook groups your audience frequents. Ask what events they already attend and compile answers. Tidy your materials: Ensure your site and speaker page reflect your niche clearly, with outcomes and a clean bio. If you don't have a reel, assemble a short, honest highlight cut from any footage you have. Send five concise outreach emails: “When will you start reviewing speakers for [event]?” Track replies. Ask for permission to follow up at their timeline. Build a simple follow-up system: Calendar reminders or a basic CRM. Follow up exactly when promised with a short, service-oriented note. Reliability is your advantage. Book or create one rep: Pitch a breakout locally or host a focused micro-workshop yourself. Capture testimonials and footage. Momentum starts here.

You do not need to be famous. You do need to be focused, professional, and persistent. Choose your “steak,” serve it beautifully to the right diners, and keep showing up. The rooms you want will start asking for you by name. Ready to Turn Your Experience Into Income? If you're still here reading this, I have a feeling I know something about you.
