In 2011, avid fitness fan John Foley comes up with an idea for an internet-connected exercise bike that allows users to experience the communal nature of a cycling class from the comfort of home. He thinks the idea will make gyms a relic of the past. The next year, he and four others found Peloton and the company develops a devoted, but niche following. And when the Covid-19 pandemic hits, Peloton's popularity skyrockets. The revolution Foley predicted seems like it's coming true. But can Foley capitalize on this moment, or will Peloton turn into yet another fitness fad?Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

Jesus doesn't say, try not to worry. He says, Don't.In this week's episode, Susie and Angie sit down for one last conversation in our current season to explore what Jesus meant in Matthew 6:34 when He told us not to be anxious about tomorrow. Together, we unpack the meaning behind the word “worry,” discover the freedom that comes from contentment, and share the ways God is gently helping us trust Him with the future one day at a time.If you've ever struggled to stay grounded in the present or felt pulled apart by imagined future threats, this conversation is for you. You'll hear biblical encouragement, personal stories, and honest reflections on how worry distracts us from the peace and provision Jesus offers right now.This episode also marks a turning point as we prepare to shift into a new season of the podcast. Don't miss this tender send-off and powerful reminder that God's care is steady, even when everything else feels uncertain. Matthew 6:34 (NIV)Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. https://livesteadyon.com/https://susiecrosby.com/ https://www.logos.com/https://enduringword.com/https://www.wordhippo.com/https://www.biblegateway.com/https://www.blueletterbible.org/Rudolf Bultmann, “Μεριμνάω, Προμεριμνάω, Μέριμνα, Ἀμέριμνος,” in Theological Dictionary of the New Testament, ed.

The playoffs are a week away and David Brown is here to try to help us figure out if any of these teams is any damned good? We also discuss why a team would allow a player to have a day off in the middle of a playoff run to go to...well, you know where he went. They answer some questions the Cubs are facing about their playoff roster, uncover a new telekinetic power that Matt Shaw may very well possess, dredge up Terrance Gore memories while discussing Billy Hamilton, explain the three way tiebreaker for the Mets, Reds and D'bags, and try to figure out how the hell Houston is still in the hunt in the AL. We talk playoff TV assignments, and say good riddance to Clayton Kershaw. All that, and more.

Ephesians 6:17 calls us to take up the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. But what does it look like to use God's word as a weapon in everyday battles?In this week's episode, Angie and Katie unpack how the sword of the Spirit is more than head knowledge. It's Scripture lived out. When we let truth shape our thoughts, guide our decisions, and speak into our pain, we fight back against the enemy's lies with the very strength God supplies.Through word studies, commentary insights, and personal stories, we explore how the Holy Spirit brings Scripture to life within us, reminding us of what is true, equipping us to stand firm, and guiding us to walk in victory. The sword of the Spirit is a gift. And when we raise it, we move forward in power that isn't ours but His.

The season is in it's final weeks and it's time for David Brown to help us decide what races are real and who still has a chance to force their way into the playoffs. They look at the closest races and the remaining schedules to see who might have a chance (Giants?) and who's already screwed (Texas?) Then they take a look a the incredible second half of Cade Horton and how he's clearly the best rookie pitcher (and player) and not that skinny giraffe in Milwaukee. They break down the list of guys with numbers retired by more than one team (thanks, Ian Happ for the idea!) They also ponder Anthony Rizzo's retirement, what a baseball ambassador does, and why the Cubs keep burying their Utility Tunnel of Fame induction during football's first big Sunday.

The baseball podcast is back with David Brown and we take a look around the league to see what races have been run and there's really anything left to decide. Are the Dodgers more or less vulnerable the longer they go through the playoffs? Why are the Brewers not a real rival, and will they ever be one? Can anybody in the American League realistically win the World Series. Would radical realignment make things better, or would we all just get even more tired of Cubs-White Sox matchups? All that, and more.
