In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Margie Davenport, researcher, professor, and leading voice in maternal health and exercise science, to discuss how the landscape of pregnancy and postpartum fitness has evolved over the past decade.   Dr. Margie shares insights from her extensive research on exercise during pregnancy and postpartum, including how newer evidence continues to challenge outdated recommendations and support women in maintaining active, athletic lifestyles. She offers a behind-the-scenes look at the challenges of conducting research in women's health, including barriers to funding and the ongoing need for more high-quality studies focused on pregnant and postpartum athletes.   This conversation is a powerful reminder that research doesn't exist in a vacuum. When science, coaching, and lived experience come together, we can create better support systems and more opportunities for women to thrive throughout pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond.   Connect with Dr. Margie Instagram: @drmargiedavenport Website: https://www.ksr.ualberta.ca/exerciseandpregnancy/   Ready to become a P&PA Coach in person?   Join us for the Pregnancy & Postpartum Athleticism LIVE Certification this September in Boise—an immersive, hands-on experience designed to help you confidently support pregnant and postpartum athletes.

Megan Davenport, CRIC development coordinator, Karina Brown on World Refugee Day -- Study: Are colleges spending too much on athletics 

In one of the most personal episodes of Man Up to date, host Joe Stopulos opens by sharing that his father — the self-described hero of his life — recently passed away after a swift battle with cancer. The interview featured in this episode was recorded on February 6th, the very morning Joe's family received word of his father's diagnosis, making its content — a deep dive into Joe's Catholic upbringing — all the more poignant and powerful. Highlights include: A Cradle Catholic Story: Joe, the fourth of six children, grew up in a large Catholic family in Davenport, Iowa, attending Catholic grade school, high school, and college (Marquette University). He reflects on what it meant to be the "big family" at school and how normalcy around the faith was established early. The Role of the Father: Joe makes a compelling case — backed by statistics — that as the father goes, so goes the family. He shares how watching his dad pray silently at Communion left a lasting impression, and how his father's consistent Mass attendance (never missed a single one) shaped all six Stopulos children, all of whom remain in the faith today. "Peasant Catholicism" and Why It Works: Joe and Dr. Maher discuss the value of consistent, humble faith practice — showing up to Mass, praying before meals, living a Christian life — even without formal Bible study or theological depth. It worked for two thousand years, and Joe's family is living proof. A Gift of Faith: Joe shares that he never seriously doubted his faith, even through adolescence and college. His one missed Mass in eighth grade is still something he remembers. He considered priesthood briefly in grade school but ultimately felt called to marriage — and the story of how he met his wife Kristen (thanks to a last-minute band class and AOL Instant Messenger) is both funny and providential. Looking Ahead: Joe closes by noting this is Part 1 of 2. Upcoming weeks on Man Up will include Part 2 of the Uncommon Good interview, re-aired episodes featuring Joe's father, and eventually Joe's own personal reflection on what his dad meant to him. He also notes the recent passing of Father Aquinas, adding to a season of deep personal loss. This episode is for any man who wants to be a better father, who wonders if showing up is enough, or who is still processing what his own father meant to him.

There has been a recent surge in AI-generated online adverts promoting bogus state-backed investment schemes, according to FraudSMART, the fraud awareness initiative led by Banking & Payments Federation Ireland (BPFI), as consumers are warned to be on alert. The ads feature fake images or videos of high-profile politicians and businesspeople encouraging consumers to click a link to register for the scheme. This is the latest trend in an ongoing wave of investment fraud in recent years, particularly targeting people in their 50s who may be looking for investment opportunities ahead of retirement. New figures from An Garda Síochána show an increase of over 20% in reports of investment fraud in 2025 compared to 2024, with more than €20 million in losses. This upwards trend is continuing into 2026. Niamh Davenport, Head of Financial Crime with BPFI, said: "We are seeing a worrying rise in AI-generated online adverts featuring fake images and videos of well-known and trusted politicians and businesspeople. Fraudsters are exploiting recent news coverage of a planned state-backed savings and investment scheme to make their adverts appear legitimate. They often claim the scheme is open to everyone, but that places are limited and being 'snapped up' fast, in order to pressure people to act quickly. They typically promise guaranteed returns or a guaranteed monthly income. While these scams are targeted at people of all ages, recent trends show that many victims of investment scams like these are in their early 50s, often at a stage in their life where they are actively managing savings or making longer?term financial decisions for retirement." Describing how the scam works, Ms Davenport continued: "Most investment scams tend to follow a similar pattern. Consumers are encouraged to click on a registration link and asked to fill in a short form with their contact details to receive more information. They may then receive a call from a so-called 'financial advisor' urging them to make an immediate 'security deposit' to secure their place on the scheme. Once the victim is convinced and has authorised the payment, the criminal will quickly transfer the money through multiple accounts, often overseas, where it is then cashed out." Reports of investment scams to Gardaí rose by over 20% of in 2025 with over €20 million in losses Commenting on wider investment scam trends, Michael Cryan, Detective Superintendent at the Garda National Economic Crime Bureau stated: "Reports of investment fraud in Ireland rose by over 20% in 2025 compared to 2024, with over €20 million in losses. This upwards trend is continuing into 2026. Individual losses can start anywhere from €250 on a crypto scam, but for bigger investment scams involving bonds and shares, it can start anywhere from €10,000 and can increase significantly beyond this. While the amounts may seem high, victims are not necessarily wealthy individuals. They are often ordinary people who have worked hard to build up a pension or savings and are looking for an opportunity to strengthen their finances ahead of, or during, retirement. We would urge everyone, particularly those aged over 50, to be alert to these scams and, if they believe they may have fallen victim to investment fraud, to contact their bank and An Garda Síochána immediately." FraudSMART partners with Age Friendly Ireland to raise awareness at community events Catherine McGuigan, Chief Officer, Age Friendly Ireland added: "These are very serious scams that can have a life-changing impact on victims. The best defence against these fraudsters is knowledge and Age Friendly Ireland is pleased to partner with FraudSMART to raise awareness at community events across the country in the coming weeks and months and help people recognise the warning signs. It is so important to pause, take time to check, and speak to someone you trust before responding to any unexpected offer. Importantly, people should not feel embarrassed if they are caught...

In this powerful episode I chat with Bible teacher and author with Our Daily Bread Publisher Mariel Davenport to talk about her transformative Tend Method — a simple yet deeply intentional way to study Scripture and hear God's voice through His Word.Mariel shares her incredible testimony of going from atheism to becoming a passionate Bible teacher after a coworker handed her a Bible and challenged her to read it. What began as an attempt to disprove Christianity became a life-changing encounter with the living God through Scripture. Some points we discuss:• Why many women feel overwhelmed when approaching the Bible• The importance of slowing down and studying Scripture in context• How the Tend Method helps women confidently hear from God for themselves• The power of being doers of the Word and not just hearers• Recognizing the enemy's schemes through knowing God's Word.If you've ever felt intimidated by Bible study, struggled to stay consistent in the Word, or longed to hear God more clearly, this conversation will encourage and equip you to tend your soul through Scripture one verse at a time.Connect with Mariel and learn more about the Tending Together community at her website. Use code: Podcast5https://marieldavenport.com/community/Plus, hear about her Bible studies with Our Daily Bread Publishing Ministry including Ruth: Finding Grace in the Unexpected, 1 Peter: Sustained by Living Hope, and her upcoming study on James.This episode will inspire you to slow down, cultivate intimacy with God, and allow His Word to transform your life from the inside out!

For patrons only for 1 year: We trace how the notion of the “industrial revolution” – originally a foreign, Continental idea rooted in German dialectical history – entered into British political discourse and then into sacred national mythology, enshrined by the tourism industry and by Thatcherite politics. Then we examine the evolving debate over whether the alleged revolution was a good or a bad thing—or whether such an event happened at all, considering its narrow limitations in time, space, and scope. Finally, we weigh carefully the arguments that have been advanced in defense of the traditional myth, including the explosive growth of British cities, the wide divergence between Europe and the rest of the world, and the appearance of so-called “proto-industrialization” in the organization of labor before the rise of machines.

There is mayhem in the aristocratic Davenport family as a new servant (Ben Radcliffe) is bonding with their youngest daughter Rose (Thomasin McKenzie) in this cheeky and irreverent Downton Abbey-esque parody.

The fastest way to stall your career is to walk into your first job trying to prove you have already arrived. We start with a surprisingly perfect metaphor: cowbells outside the window, marathons running past the house, and the Bix Run in Davenport where the crowd cheers so hard it feels like a moving party. It is funny, but it is also real, because careers work the same way. The energy is out there, the opportunities are moving, and you decide whether you are going to stay in bed or step onto the course.From there, we pivot into graduation season and the advice we wish every new college grad would hear before entering the workforce. Our simple take: be curious and say yes. Not yes to nonsense, but yes to learning, yes to the invite that scares you, yes to staying late one day to understand the bigger picture, yes to the unexpected project that teaches you more than any class. Curiosity builds context, and context is what turns “smart” into effective.We also get blunt about entitlement, ego, and the overlooked skill of being a great follower. Listening well, aligning with leaders, and respecting authority can be the difference between building trust quickly and burning bridges early. We talk about how confidence grows when you do hard things you never thought you could do, and how to handle the real concern of being taken advantage of without shutting down opportunities too soon.If you are a new graduate, a parent of a grad, or a leader mentoring early-career talent, this one is packed with practical career advice, leadership lessons, and mindset shifts you can use immediately. 

The queens are scaring up sales for this week's spooky home shopping improv challenge. The scariest part is that they have to do it in pairs, or more specifically, that Lucky and Mystique have to work together. Dawn makes the judges howl, Morgan does in fact do pretty well for a dead bitch, and while it seems like Akeria's got this all wrapped up, it's ultimately up to Ru to choose between an old favorite from Peanuts and a Davenport born to do drag. Become a Matreon at the Sister Mary level to get access to all of our AS11 coverage, plus The Comeback S3, The Traitors, brackets, movie reviews and past seasons of US Drag Race, UK, Canada, Down Under, Espana, Global All Stars, Philippines and more.Join us at our OnlyMarys level for our recaps of Season 4 & 5 of Drag Race plus even more movie reviews, brackets, and deep dives into our personal lives!Patreon: www.patreon.com/alrightmaryEmail: alrightmarypodcast@gmail.comInstagram: @alrightmarypodJohnny: @johnnyalso (Instagram)Colin: @colindrucker_ (Instagram)Web: www.alrightmary.com   

In this breakout, we will walk through a simple framework to discover and clarify a 5-year picture for your ministry. Leaders will learn how to start with the end in sight, define measurable proof of success, identify key milestones, and narrow their focus into practical 12-month outcomes and 90-day moves. The goal is to leave with a clearer picture of where the ministry is headed and the first steps needed to move toward it.This session was recorded live at Roundup 2026, a gathering of college ministry leaders hosted by the Southern Baptist of Texas Convention.Chuck Davenport serves as the Executive Discipleship Pastor at Sagemont Church, where he has served for nearly 10 years. He has been involved in collegiate ministry for 15 years, including almost 8 years as Sagemont's College Pastor. Chuck is passionate about helping people find Jesus, develop as leaders, and faithfully serve in the ministry God has entrusted to them.He and his wife, MaryAnn, have been married for 9 years and are raising three children, ages 5, 3, and 1. Outside of ministry, Chuck loves sports, fishing, grilling, and lifting weights.

In this episode of the RuPaul's Drag Race Recap Show, host Joe Betance is joined by special guest co-host Adam Salandra to break down the design challenge of the season. From point-distribution drama to "demon twinks" and unconventional materials, we dissect everything that happened on the main stage and in the workroom. The Daddy Discourse: Joe and Adam kick things off with a candid (and slightly weird) conversation about fatherhood terminology and how kids navigate having two dads. Point Distribution & Betrayals: The queens head back to the workroom to de-drag and distribute their MVQ points. We discuss Morphine's disappointment and Lucky Stars' decision to snub her in favor of Mystique. Mini Challenge Madness: The girls attempt to put on "chonies" without using their hands. Spoiler: Nobody wins, but it leads to a hilarious story about Joe's "Sisterhood of the Traveling Chonies". Maxi Challenge: Bar Queen Couture: The queens are tasked with creating high-fashion looks from unconventional materials based on queer bar categories like Leather, White Party, and Piano Bar. Runway Review: A'keria C. Davenport stuns in White Party realness. Dawn brings the "demon twink" energy to the Piano Bar. Lucky Stars confuses (and delights) as a pinata in a donut hole. Mystique Summers Madison redeems her Season 2 country past. The Lip Sync Battle: A'keria and Dawn face off to Fergie's "Fergalicious" for the win and a major advantage in the competition. "I thought Dawn was such a demon twink... she's no longer nice to their faces either. Progress!" — Joe Betance "I am a dual type of daddy, so I think it's fine." — Adam Salandra Follow the Show:Be sure to subscribe and join us three times a week as we continue to discuss, dissect, and deconstruct every episode of RuPaul's Drag Race All-Stars Season 11.

Joe and Taylor kick off coverage of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 11 with Episode 1, “Breakdancing 2: Electric Rugaloo,” and before they even get to the queens, the conversation somehow spirals into Disney popcorn buckets, haunted mansion drink sippers, and the psychology of eating popcorn alone at Disneyland while holding collectible toys. It's the kind of chaos you've come to expect. Once the episode discussion begins, Joe and Taylor break down the entire Orange Bracket premiere cast including Morphine Love Dion, Dawn, Morgan McMichaels, A'Keria C. Davenport, Lucky Starzzz, and Mystique Summers Madison. They discuss which queens already feel like real contenders, which queens may be struggling to adapt to modern Drag Race, and whether some returning contestants were brought back for redemption… or nostalgia. The duo also dives deep into: Whether Morgan McMichaels is quietly producing good television in real time Why Dawn's elevated drag package still doesn't stop Joe from distrusting her The strange energy surrounding Mystique Summers Madison's return Whether Morphine deserved a Top 2 placement The awkwardness of the choreography rehearsal segment Why the episode itself feels oddly tension-free despite obvious shade La Toya Jackson as a guest judge and the lost art of 80s camp celebrity Whether the “Tournament of All Stars” format is helping or hurting the show Plus: Joe theorizes that Disney adults are funding a black market popcorn bucket economy Taylor explains why taking a season off from Drag Race may actually improve your viewing experience An unexpected sidebar about cigarette smoke aging drag queens And Joe nearly launches a conspiracy theory about production timelines before immediately disproving it himself At the end, Joe and Taylor debate whether the right queens landed in the Top 2, whether Morgan truly won the lip sync fairly, and pitch an entirely different All Stars bracket format that might solve one of the franchise's growing problems.

New York is waging a war against a pediatrician who dared to stand up for medical freedom, charging her with 21 felonies related to vax records of her patients. Without a trial, the state labeled Dr. Shareen Ismail a “fraud,” suspended her access, and reportedly deleted her 7-year-old son's immunization records – allegedly in an effort to portray her as an anti-vaxxer who was providing fake immunization records for her patients. Dr. Ismail and her attorney Chad Davenport join Dr. Drew to expose the state's terrifying weaponization of the justice system and the attempts to destroy her life in family courts.

Joe and Robert kick off coverage of All Stars 11 by diving into the Orange Bracket, breaking down six returning queens and setting expectations for the season's new bracket format. Instead of covering every queen at once, they focus on this first group—looking at past performances, evolving narratives, and what each queen needs to prove this time around. The conversation begins with Dawn, whose run on Season 16 sparked debate. Joe reflects on her sharp, behind-the-scenes gameplay and “nice on the surface” persona, while Robert questions whether her quirky villain energy will land better—or wear thin—on All Stars. They agree she has potential but may need to evolve to stand out. Next up is Morphine Love Dion, who earns much warmer praise. Both hosts agree she had one of the strongest growth arcs on her season, transforming from a slightly off-putting presence into a fan-favorite lip sync assassin. Joe admits she won him over completely by the end, and they're both excited to see how she performs in a format that could play to her strengths. A'Keria C. Davenport gets a two-part discussion, covering both her Season 11 success and her more subdued All Stars 6 return. Joe and Robert agree she has always been polished and capable, but something has consistently kept her from fully breaking through as a standout star. They also revisit how production may have shaped her narrative and question whether this third attempt will finally unlock her full potential. Lucky Starzz is a wildcard in the bracket. Joe barely remembers her run, noting she made an impression early but didn't last long enough to fully develop. Robert sees potential in her confidence and aesthetic but acknowledges that unconventional drag doesn't always translate well on Drag Race. They're curious to see whether she can surprise them. Mystique Summers Madison brings pure chaos and nostalgia. Robert is thrilled by her return, celebrating her as an iconic early-season personality with endlessly quotable moments. Joe is more cautious, hoping her drag has evolved while still retaining the unpredictable energy that made her memorable. Finally, Morgan McMichaels rounds out the bracket as a veteran presence. Joe and Robert discuss her legacy as a Drag Race pioneer and her strategic missteps on All Stars 3, where her upfront gameplay made her an early target. While Joe suspects she may benefit from strong connections within the cast, Robert questions whether her “tough persona” helps or hurts her on the show. To close, they zoom out and look at the Orange Bracket as a whole, speculating on how the mix of early outs, fan favorites, and seasoned competitors might play out. With the bracket format creating unpredictable challenge groupings, both agree that success may come down as much to luck as talent. The season is officially underway—and the chaos has already begun.

In First Choice Women’s Resource Centers, Inc. v. Davenport, the New Jersey Attorney General, Matthew Platkin, issued a subpoena to a faith-based, pro-life, nonprofit, requiring that it turn over years of sensitive information, including the names and contact information of its donors. First Choice Women’s Resource Centers, which provides free medical services and is funded by private donations, refused to comply with the demand for donor information, alleging that the subpoena chilled its rights of association and speech.After federal courts dismissed the case as “unripe” and directed it to state court, the Third Circuit affirmed. On April 29, the Supreme Court unanimously reversed, holding that First Choice had demonstrated a present injury sufficient to establish Article III standing based on its First Amendment claims.Join us to discuss the ruling and its implications for donor privacy and constitutional protections.Featuring: Prof. Teresa Stanton Collett, Professor and Director, Prolife Center, University of St. Thomas School of LawCasey Mattox, Vice President for Legal Strategy, Stand Together

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today!How do you anchor your soul and stand firm when the world around you feels completely unstable? This week, Mariel Davenport, a Bible study teacher and creator of the TEND method, joins Jaime for an uplifting and encouraging conversation on reorienting your heart based on her newest Bible study, 1 Peter: Sustained by a Living Hope. In this episode, Mariel shares the beautiful picture of community through the lens of her salsa garden—explaining how the "companion planting" of tomatoes and jalapeños perfectly mirrors how the body of Christ is designed to mutually benefit and grow together. Mariel also tackles the misconception that reading the Bible is just an academic exercise, and offers practical advice on how slowing down to handwrite Scripture can cultivate a vibrant, intimate relationship with God rather than just gathering a collection of facts. Mariel also opens up about the reality of spiritual warfare, sharing how deeply knowing who God says you are is your greatest defense against the enemy's lies. You’ll walk away with a fresh perspective on what it means to truly tend to your soul, and how remembering your identity as chosen and holy can transform your daily walk with Jesus.

In the early years of professional basketball, before the bright lights and global reach of today's NBA, the game was held together by grit, geography, and a patchwork of teams fighting to survive. Few franchises capture that fragile, formative moment better than the Tri-Cities Blackhawks — a team that didn't just represent one city, but an entire region straddling the Mississippi River. In this episode, we're joined by author Don Doxsie, whose book "Tri-City Blackhawks: A Turbulent History of a Pioneering NBA Team" serves as both our guide and our lens into this overlooked chapter of basketball history. Based in Moline, Rock Island, and Davenport, the Blackhawks were a product of the industrial Midwest and the now-defunct National Basketball League. They played a bruising, defense-first style, developed standout players, and, for a brief moment, stood toe-to-toe with the best teams of their era. But as pro basketball rapidly evolved — culminating in the 1949 merger that created the modern NBA — the realities of a small, fragmented market began to close in. Through Doxsie's reporting and perspective, we explore the team's promising early seasons, its mounting financial and competitive pressures, and the instability that ultimately led to its relocation. It's a story of reinvention as much as decline — one that would eventually see the franchise evolve into today's Atlanta Hawks, but only after leaving the Tri-Cities behind. Along the way, Doxsie brings to life the personalities, league politics, and day-to-day realities of running a team on the margins of a sport still struggling to define itself. + + +    SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable The "Good Seats" Store: http://tee.pub/lic/RdiDZzQeHSY BUY THE BOOK:  "Tri-City Blackhawks: A Turbulent History of a Pioneering NBA Team": https://amzn.to/42x6Cvm SPONSOR THANKS:  Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2 Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats FIND AND FOLLOW: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/GoodSeatsStillAvailable Web: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/good-seats-still-available/
