Host Jesse Jackson welcomes writer and musician David Starkey to Set Listing Bruce to discuss Starkey's book On Track: Bruce Springsteen 1973–1987, Every Album, Every Song and his lifelong relationship to Springsteen's recorded work. Starkey shares how growing up between Sacramento and summers in Beaumont shaped his musical tastes, from Johnny Cash and Aerosmith to discovering Springsteen via Greetings and being captivated by Born to Run and Darkness on the Edge of Town. They talk about the current tour, its political tone, Tom Morello's guitar work, ticket prices, and setlist debates. Starkey explains his writing process, what he learned by re-listening (especially the importance of piano), and why 1987 marks an era's end. The conversation also touches on poetry vs. lyrics, Starkey's interview series The Creative Community, upcoming projects, and the “Mary question” from Thunder Road. https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Bruce-Springsteen-1973-1987/David-Starkey/On-Track/9781789524710 00:00 Podcast Welcome 00:39 Meeting David 02:03 Early Music Obsessions 03:44 Family Sounds and Travel 06:59 Johnny Cash Tangent 09:04 Finding Springsteen 10:03 Live Shows and Politics 13:54 Ticket Prices Debate 14:28 Writing and Poetry 18:08 Why This Bruce Book 20:05 Born in the USA Memories 22:14 Researching the Albums 23:53 Why Stop at 1987 25:43 Concert Banter Debate 26:59 River Tour Pacing 27:55 Writing More Personally 29:33 Hot Takes On Songs 30:51 Family Discovers Nebraska 32:06 Biopic Who Is It For 34:35 Bruce Creative Evolution 36:46 Never Repeating Himself 39:41 His Interview Show Origins 41:09 Next Books And Memoir 44:12 Where To Find The Book 45:54 Final Thanks And Signoff 46:24 Podcast Housekeeping Learn more about your ad choices.

Questa volta, doppietta per due pellicole che solo apparentemente sembrano agli opposti e che invece, almeno secondo la mente malata del sottoscritto, hanno qualche parallelismo e diverse somiglianze, seppur prendano strade diverse.Quello che è certo è che sia SHUTTER che DARKNESS, sono due pellicole che regalano inquietudine e momenti di vero terrore, dove il lieto fine è lontanissimo anni luce, ovviamente.

In this powerful and vulnerable conversation, renowned singer, songwriter, worship artist, and author, Christine D’Clario, opens up about her battle with postpartum depression, suicidal thoughts, and the stigma surrounding mental health, particularly within Latin American culture and the Church. Christine shares what her darkest seasons taught her about faith, asking for help, and finding hope when God feels distant. We also dive into her newest book, Healing in the Desert: Finding Your Voice on the Journey from Brokenness to Freedom, and the powerful reminder that our deserts don’t have to be the end of our story…they can become the places where God restores our voice, heals our wounds, and leads us toward freedom.

Biblical Life "Are We Alone or Deceived?" 2 Corinthians 4:4 Darkness from the Devil (4a) Psa. 89:11 The heavens are yours; the earth also is yours; the world and all that is in it, you have founded them. Who is Satan? - Satan (Zec. 3; Nu. 22; 1 Sam. 19;29) - Devil (1 Ki. 11; Lu.4) - Destroyer (Rev. 9) - Prince or ruler of this world (Jo. 12; 14; Eph. 2) - Old Serpent and Great Dragon (Rev. 12) Light of the Gospel and Glory of Christ (4b) the image (or exact likeness= icon) of God. 3 Reasons Aliens Haven't Visited Earth? 1. Space is just too big 2. Our atmosphere and environmental conditions could be toxic to alien life 3. They probably don't exist Jo. 12:35-36 35 So Jesus said to them, "The light is among you for a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going. 36 While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light."
JUL. 29, 2026God is working on your behalf."We know that in everything God works for the good of those who love him." Ro 8:28 NCVThe Bible begins with these words: "In the beginning God created the sky and the earth. The earth was empty and had no form. Darkness covered the ocean, and God's Spirit was moving over the water.Then God said, 'Let there be light,' and there was light. God saw that the light was good" (Ge 1:1-4 NCV). Even when your life seems like a jumbled mess, you can trust the God who brought order out of chaos and light out of darkness to help your life make sense. When you believe that "All things work together for good" (Ro 8:28 NKJV), it redefines the bad things that happen. The worst day of your life can turn into the best day. There's a silver lining to every cloud, and every downside has a potential upside.When you interpret life through this prism, it gives you confidence that everything is going to be alright. It reassures you that the best is yet to come because God said, "For I know the plans I have for you...they are plans for good" (See Jer 29:11 NLT). But sometimes you have a part to play. God is setting up divine appointments, but you must keep them. God is a gift-giver, but you must fan your gift into flame. God is calling, but you must answer (See Isa 6:8). God is ordering your footsteps, but you must keep in step with the Spirit. If you faithfully do your part, you can count on God to do His part—which is to work on your behalf.God is working on your behalf A silver lining in every cloudShare This DevotionalSend us Fan MailSupport the showChanging Lives | Building Strong Family | Impacting Our Community For Jesus Christ!

In our darkest moments we often forget that God is still present. Our faith is a continuous journey where sometimes we feel His presence, while other times we feel like He is nowhere near us. Musician Kathy Troccoli is all too familiar with the ups and downs one can experience while living out a life of faith. Her father discovered her singing voice as a child, but in her 20s she realized her voice was a spiritual gift from God. Ever since, she's been through trials that have deeply tested her and strengthened her relationship with the Lord. Join hosts Elisa Morgan and Eryn Eddy Adkins as they learn what it really means to live with an unshakable faith during this God Hears Her conversation. Guest Bio: Kathy Troccoli is more than an award-winning artist—she is a woman with a deep passion to touch hearts with love, comfort and the transforming power of God. With 25 recordings, 18 No. 1 radio hits, 2 Grammy nominations, 19 Dove Award nominations, and 2 Dove Awards, her voice has become a powerful instrument of encouragement across generations. Her influence has also reached beyond Christian music, including the chart-topping hit Everything Changes and a Top 10 single with the legendary Beach Boys, I Can Hear Music. Kathy has traveled the globe, from serving on mission fields in Africa, China, India, and Central America to performing before thousands and she brings the same heartfelt passion to both. Notes and Quotes: “I always had this yearning and feeling like there's something missing. And I didn't know until I met the Lord that it was Him. Even at 6 years old, He was wooing me to ask, ‘What's beyond the beyond?'” —Kathy Troccoli “And the Holy Spirit said, ‘Just keep looking at my Son.'” —Kathy Troccoli “If you don't go back to the foundation of who you are and Whose you are, you're going to emote from a place that's not God, you're going to speak from a place that's not God, you're going to think from a place that's not God, you're going to treat people from a place that's not God. But if you stay under that Light, He will guide you. He promises to.” —Kathy Troccoli “Look at God in the circumstance and not just the circumstance.” —Kathy Troccoli “This life can be torturous. What He said was ‘I will be with you.' And I trust that.” —Kathy Troccoli “There was a part of me that couldn't deny who I knew Jesus to be.” —Kathy Troccoli “What He's asked us to do is to leave everything and follow Him. The first thing we must do is keep our hearts open every day.” —Kathy Troccoli “Darkness is not dark to God, it's dark to you. Darkness is not dark to God, He is there. Keep praying, keep your heart open, and you will see Him and hear Him. I promise, but most of all, He promises.” —Kathy Troccoli Related Episodes: GHH Ep 60 – Becoming a Woman of Moxie with Julie Richardson: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/becoming-a-woman-with-moxie/ GHH Ep 148 – The Journey of Unshakable Moxie with Julie Richardson: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/the-journey-of-unshakable-moxie/ GHH Ep 149 – Accepting Moxie with Toni Collier: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/accepting-moxie/ GHH Ep 150 – The Meaning of Moxie with Moriah Smallbone: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/the-meaning-of-moxie/ Links: God Hears Her website: https://go.odb.org/sign-up-ghh Subscribe to the God Hears Her YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@GodHearsHerODBM Unshakable Moxie Season 2 Docuseries: https://go.odb.org/ghh-moxie Unshakable Moxie Season 2 Bible Study: https://go.odb.org/ghh-unshakable-moxie Kathy Troccoli: https://kathytroccoli.com/

Our guest today is Liz Lazarus. Liz is the author of Free of Malice, Plea for Justice, Shades of Silence, and most recently Dawn Before Darkness. 1) Dawn Before Darkness begins as a romance before transforming into a legal thriller and suspense novel. What inspired this story, and what real-world issues were you hoping readers would recognize beneath the fiction? 2) One of the central themes is the exploitation of vulnerable seniors through the guardianship and conservatorship system. Why is this an issue more Americans should understand, and what warning signs should families watch for? 3) Dawn survives because she's prepared, keeps her wits about her under pressure, and has multiple layers of protection—including technology, a loyal dog, and ultimately the ability to fight back. What message were you hoping to send about personal safety, resilience, and self-reliance? 4) Without giving away every twist, your novel reminds readers that corruption often involves networks of people rather than a single bad actor. Why was it important to explore how systems can fail—and how determined individuals can expose the truth? 5) How do people follow you? Originally Aired 8.10.26

In this study of Amos 5:1-24, we face a stark warning given to people who were going through all the right religious motions while ignoring the poor and twisting justice. This sermon breaks down why God hates empty rituals when hearts are far from him, and what it truly means to "seek the Lord and live." Discover the weight of the day of the lord and hear the famous, roaring call to let justice roll down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.

This week on Bad Dads Film Review, we complete our accidental trilogy of “third things.” After covering Close Encounters of the Third Kind on the midweek show, we turn to Army of Darkness, Sam Raimi's third Evil Dead film, and use that as an excuse to dig into the noble, messy and often suspicious art of the threequel.There is no formal intro this week — time has apparently been attacked by Deadites — so we open with a catch-up on what everyone has been watching. Reegs has been busy with Backrooms, Obsession, Disclosure Day and Apple TV's Cape Fear, which gets a recommendation so long as you know going in that it is extremely ridiculous. Sidey has finally finished The Pit, finding the second season weaker than the first but still worth the time, and has also watched Backrooms and started The Mandalorian. Dan has finished series five of Slow Horses, which he continues to push as an absolute treat, and has also seen The Odyssey at the cinema, where three hours apparently went by surprisingly quickly.That leads us into the usual wandering preamble: 4DX screenings with shaking seats, water and wind; panoramic side-screen cinema formats; the Sphere in Vegas; Sidey somehow still not having made it to IMAX; Spider-Man: Brand New Day and big cinema opening weekends; Tom Holland and Jon Bernthal on Hot Ones; and the general horror of people getting overconfident with hot sauce before reality arrives in liquid form.The Top 5 this week is third films in a franchise, which gives us one of those lists where genuinely great films sit shoulder to shoulder with absolute nonsense. Dan opens strongly with The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, a film that swept the Oscars so hard it practically brought its own broom. Sidey goes for Toy Story 3, remembering Lotso, Spanish Buzz, the daycare escape, the furnace sequence and the emotional finality of Andy giving up his toys. Reegs makes a spirited defence of The Matrix Revolutions, arguing that its uneasy truce ending and refusal to give everyone a simple victory has aged better than its reputation suggests.From there, we move through Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, with Sean Connery, River Phoenix and the Holy Grail; The Bourne Ultimatum, which Sidey remembers as peak Jason Bourne closure and kinetic shaky-cam action; Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, praised by Reegs for Rocket's unexpectedly emotional backstory; The Naked Gun 33⅓: The Final Insult, because Frank Drebin remains Frank Drebin; and Die Hard with a Vengeance, which gives Sidey an excuse to talk about Zeus, Simon Says, Jeremy Irons and New York puzzle chaos.There are plenty of other third-film detours too, including RoboCop 3, Austin Powers in Goldmember, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, Alien 3, John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum, Back to the Future Part III, Halloween III: Season of the Witch, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, the Cornetto trilogy, Avengers: Infinity War, Blade: Trinity, Karate Kid Part III and Ocean's 13. Sidey bends the rules by choosing the third episode of Twin Peaks, “Zen, or the Skill to Catch a Killer,” while Dan lands on Before Midnight, the third film in Richard Linklater's Before trilogy.Eventually, we arrive in 1300 AD for Army of Darkness itself. Dan has not seen it, but has correctly gathered that this is not really the same kind of horror film as The Evil Dead. Reegs, who has seen it many times, explains the tonal journey of the series: the first film as bleak, grimy horror; Evil Dead II as a genuine horror-comedy masterpiece; and Army of Darkness as the point where Ash becomes the full cartoon version of himself — part action hero, part idiot, part Bruce Campbell chin-delivery system.We talk about Sam Raimi's direction, Bill Pope's cinematography before The Matrix, Danny Elfman's contribution to the score, and the way Raimi's visual energy clearly echoes forward into later filmmakers such as Edgar Wright. The plot is gloriously simple and gloriously stupid: Ash is dragged through time after Evil Dead II, lands in the middle of a medieval conflict between Lord Arthur and Henry the Red, gets thrown into a pit, fights Deadites, reclaims his chainsaw hand, introduces everyone to the boomstick, and immediately becomes insufferable once the locals start treating him as their prophesied saviour.The film then sends Ash off to retrieve the Necronomicon, with one very clear instruction: say the words “Klaatu barada nikto” before taking the book. Naturally, Ash being Ash, he half-remembers, fudges it and unleashes the titular army of darkness. Along the way we get the windmill sequence, tiny mirror Ashes, Three Stooges slapstick, bad Ash splitting out of good Ash, Sheila falling for exactly the worst man available, and a castle siege finale full of skeletons, homemade weapons, a modified car and Ray Harryhausen-style chaos.We also get into the two endings: the darker UK/director's cut version, where Ash takes too many drops and wakes up in a ruined future, and the more crowd-pleasing US S-Mart ending, where he returns to work, tells the story and gets one last heroic Deadite showdown. Reegs prefers the bleaker ending because it feels funnier and more in keeping with Ash's ability to mess up almost everything.The verdict is affectionate, even if slightly qualified. Reegs still thinks Evil Dead II is the one to watch if you only watch one Evil Dead film, and he does not think Army of Darkness is great in quite the same way. But it is funny, quotable, inventive and packed with cult moments: the boomstick, S-Mart, “primitive screwheads,” bad magic words, skeleton armies and Bruce Campbell at maximum Ash. Sidey thinks Dan would probably enjoy it, describing it as something like The Princess Bride with Ray Harryhausen effects and comedy horror nonsense thrown in.So the final recommendation is simple: if you only watch one, Reegs says watch Evil Dead II. If you ask Sidey, just watch them all.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us. We'll read out any texts we receive on the show.
