Are you treating the hope of the world like an urgent life-or-death truth, or are you holding back out of fear that things might get awkward? This week on Off Script, Neil is joined by guest teacher Ben to unpack what it practically looks like to speak truth unashamedly. They walk through the book of Romans to explain the vital difference between cultural lifestyle choices and the capital-G Gospel, emphasizing that sharing your faith isn't about winning online arguments or breaking down complex theology. The conversation offers a refreshing perspective on overcoming the fear of social awkwardness, recognizing everyday openings in relationships, and understanding why every believer has a story worth telling. The Challenge This week, audit how you approach sharing your faith. Instead of waiting for a perfect, cinematic moment, pray for discernment to spot simple, everyday openings in your normal conversations to share how Jesus is actively working in your life. Hosts: Neil Gregory and Ben What We Discuss • Why reading the book of Romans straight through in one sitting builds a deeper awe for the Gospel • The crucial distinction between the capital-G Gospel of salvation and lowercase-g Biblical commands • How to naturally look for relational openings to share how Jesus has impacted your life • Why sharing your experience with Jesus should feel as natural as recommending your favorite restaurant or hobby • The trap of confusing conservative cultural topics with the soul-saving message of Jesus • Why expecting non-believers to love the commands of the Kingdom before knowing the King puts the cart before the horse • Treating the message of Christ as an indisputable fact of life rather than a mere lifestyle choice • Practical wisdom for parents on creating open, safe dialogue with kids about tough cultural topics • Navigating the personal fear of being labeled "weird" or wanting people to like you when sharing truth • Debunking the myth of the "boring testimony" and realizing that gradual heart transformation is a story worth sharing ⸻ About Southland Christian Church Southland is one church meeting in multiple locations across central Kentucky. We believe Jesus came for the lost and the broken, which means there's a place for everyone here. Around here, that means we worship defiantly, speak truth unashamedly, and extend grace generously.

Mary welcomes back Bub Kuns to talk about the latest in the “Debunked” video series. When it comes to topically exposing lies that enslave, no one does it visually better than Bub and the Reasons for Hope crew. Today we talk about their newest reasoning tool, “The Earth is Flat”. One might wonder how in the world such a theory could gain any traction in such a scientifically rational world in which photographic and scientific evidence quickly and easily destroys such a theory. But what is behind their thinking? Quite possibly simply the word “theory” – and a deep-seated need to distrust any and all of the world’s institutions that some people have decided are decidedly untrustworthy. So is it even worth it to debate them at all? Some might say no, but what if we peel back the motives and look at why people believe such things, and discover what other questions they might have about things that are eternal? The same ones humans have always had. We also look at the most popular Debunked videos, and the most effective. A fun hour with one of the more creative apologists out there.

Back in the noughties, Miquita Oliver thought Fearne Cotton was an irritatingly gorgeous, successful presenter – everything she wasn't. Fearne was jealous Miquita was part of the TV cool gang. In reality? Fearne worried she was an unsophisticated nerd, and Miquita was feeling like the fat, ugly sidekick. In this episode, live from the Happy Place Festival, Fearne and Miquita chat for the first time in decades, finally able to see that it was press cruelty that created their feud. They talk through how to cope if you feel projection, assumption, or a misunderstanding have created a rift between you and a friend. Miquita also explores why she felt the need to drink to stay in a haze for much of her younger years, and why getting curious about why she felt like sh*t was the first step to getting her life back on track.

Send us Fan MailToday, Emilia and Bianca take on one of the most uncomfortable and least talked about topics there is: the toxic family narratives so many of us absorbed growing up, and how these sayings were built to protect the family image rather than the people inside it.In this episode, we unpack the real origin of "blood is thicker than water" and why its true meaning is the opposite of how families use it, the common mottos like "what happens in the house stays in the house" and "I'll give you something to cry about," and how appearances can come to matter more than truth. Drawing on the work of John Bradshaw, Virginia Satir, and Dr. Yael Danieli, they explore shame-based family rules, multigenerational legacies of trauma, and why so many of us learned to override our own sense that something wasn't safe. If you've ever quietly known the truth about your family system, this conversation is your permission slip to acknowledge it as real.Here's a related episode that builds on today's conversation: #535 | I Did the Best I Could Is Not a Valid Excuse - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/535-everything-you-need-to-know-about-handling-rude/id1511831621?i=1000786923905 Learn more about:

In Episode 173 of The Two Jacks, hosts Jack the Insider and Hong Kong Jack break down a confronting and wide-ranging week in Australian news, politics, and culture. The episode opens with an urgent discussion on Australia's domestic violence epidemic following three fatal incidents across regional and metropolitan communities, examining stubbornly high homicide rates, non-intimate familial violence, and the breakdown in enforcing intervention orders. Turning to Canberra, the Jacks assess Anthony Albanese's slump in Newspoll ratings, Siobhan McKenna's appointment as Consul-General in New York, and the persistent political headaches surrounding ministerial perks—headlined by Transport Minister Catherine King's lifetime Qantas Platinum status and the exclusive culture of the Chairman's Lounge. The conversation heats up around Pauline Hanson: her widely condemned remarks regarding First Nations Australians, the unprecedented united condemnation from Indigenous senators across party lines, and her targeted attacks on Albanese's late mother over historic public housing tenancy. The hosts also tackle the national immigration debate, contrasting One Nation's drastic visa-slashing platform with Labor's incremental policy adjustments against a backdrop of acute regional labour shortages. They explore border enforcement anomalies—including the arrest of convicted murderer Paul Offer in connection with a tracking device placed on former detective Gary Jubelin's car—and examine systemic child welfare failures in Port Hedland. Rounding out the program, the Jacks debate proposed legislation to introduce an opt-out switch for social media algorithms, answer listener mail on the future of the US Republican Party post-Trump and the legendary 1935 Sydney Shark Arm case, debunk birth-order IQ myths, and unpack the $100 million sale of Double Bay's Royal Oak Hotel. Finally, they deliver their verdicts on the AFL and NRL preliminary finals and share a laugh over a bizarre weekend in Australian cricket. Comprehensive Show Notes1. Australia's Domestic Violence Crisis & Systemic FailuresJack the Insider and Hong Kong Jack reflect on a harrowing weekend where three Australian women were killed in separate domestic violence incidents, including a 90-year-old grandmother in Sydney, a 23-year-old woman in Wagga Wagga, and a woman in northern New South Wales. The hosts analyse national homicide data, highlighting that domestic and family violence accounts for approximately 40% of all homicides in Australia, split evenly between intimate partner killings and broader familial homicides. The discussion covers the front-line pressures faced by police attending volatile call-outs, historical reporting shifts, and the frequent failure of Apprehended Violence Orders (AVOs) and Intervention Orders (ISOs) to deter determined offenders. Reference is made to the need for deeper cultural accountability and education among young men rather than relying solely on legal remedies. 2. Federal Politics, Polling Pressures & Diplomatic GigsAnthony Albanese faces a slump in public polling with Labor's primary vote falling to 27%, coinciding with his visit to the United Nations to receive a global citizen award. The appointment of Siobhan McKenna as Australian Consul-General in New York is examined, with Hong Kong Jack outlining the historical business and political ties between the Murdoch organisation and the prestigious posting. The hosts weigh upcoming electoral tests for both major parties in Victoria and New South Wales, alongside One Nation's polling gains. 3. The Qantas Perks Furor & The Chairman's LoungeScrutiny lands on Federal Transport Minister Catherine King after her parliamentary pecuniary interest register disclosed a lifetime Qantas Platinum status gift. Jack the Insider questions whether transparency around declared gifts should trigger public outrage, warning that relentless scrutiny over minor perks deters capable people from entering public life. Hong Kong Jack counters that Qantas's historic practice of handing out elite access and Chairman's Lounge memberships creates an undeniable perception of undue corporate influence across politics, the judiciary, and senior public service. 4. Pauline Hanson Controversies: Indigenous Remarks & Attacks on Maryanne AlbaneseIndigenous Affairs Minister Malarndirri McCarthy and all four Indigenous federal senators deliver a united cross-party condemnation of Pauline Hanson following her offensive description of First Nations Australians. The Jacks analyse Hanson's history of race-based political rhetoric, her qualified apologies, and whether such controversies place an electoral ceiling on One Nation's growing vote. Hanson's public criticism of Anthony Albanese regarding his late mother, Maryanne Albanese, remaining in her Camperdown public housing home until her death in 2002 is placed under factual review. Jack the Insider details the reality: Albanese was on a standard backbencher salary at the time, while his mother was an independent disability pensioner entitled to retain the home she had resided in for over six decades. 5. The National Migration Debate & Enforcement LogisticsOne Nation unrolls an aggressive migration strategy fronted by Barnaby Joyce, proposing to cut 750,000 temporary visas and enforce negative net migration before settling on a 130,000 annual intake. The hosts critique both One Nation's economically disruptive targets and the Albanese government's modest adjustments, noting strong pushback from the agricultural sector over backpacker reforms. Practical realities of border enforcement are weighed, questioning the feasibility of One Nation's plan to involuntarily deport 80,000 non-compliant visa holders annually. 6. Crime, Deportations & Child Welfare in Remote AustraliaThe hosts review the arrest of convicted murderer Paul Offer following the discovery of a tracking device attached to the private vehicle of former NSW homicide detective Gary Jubelin. Jack the Insider questions the administrative processes behind visa cancellations, contrasting Offer's circumstances with historical deportation appeals where national service exemptions were successfully argued in the High Court. Revelations from Port Hedland concerning vulnerable Indigenous children living unsupervised in squalid state housing prompt a discussion on caseworker burnout, state jurisdictional obligations, and the historical sensitivities of child welfare interventions. 7. Regulating Social Media & The Proposed Algorithm SwitchA look into legislative proposals aimed at curbing algorithm-driven content feeds on social media platforms, including proposals for an opt-out toggle. The hosts assess the risks of algorithm-driven radicalisation and anger loops on young users alongside concerns regarding censorship and government oversight of digital content. 8. Listener Inquiries, Science & Sydney FolkloreListener Lawrence asks what lies ahead for the US Republican Party post-Trump, prompting discussion on party fundraising capture and congressional dynamics. Listener Ray prompts a retelling of Sydney's infamous 1935 Shark Arm Case, where a captive tiger shark in Coogee coughed up a murdered boxer's tattooed arm, culminating in an acquittal based on the argument that an arm does not constitute proof of death. Debunking birth order stereotypes: a review of the 2015 study revealing that firstborns only average a negligible single IQ point advantage over subsequent siblings. Double Bay's Royal Oak Hotel commands a record $100 million sale price, sparking nostalgic yarns about Sydney identity John Singleton, underworld figure Stan "The Man" Smith, and colourful characters from decades past. 9. Sports Round-up: AFL, NRL & CricketAFL Preliminary Finals review: Hawthorn's contentious holding-the-ball finish, Brisbane's path forward without the suspended Lachie Neale, and Fremantle's push for a historic maiden premiership. Listener James's query regarding the Adelaide Crows' 2025 performance, assessing midfield deficiencies and trade rumours involving Chad Warner and Nick Blakey. NRL finals overview featuring Newcastle, the Sydney Roosters, and the Penrith Panthers. Weekend cricket highlights: an extraordinary sky-high "moon ball" delivery dismissal, Australia's nail-biting one-wicket win over Zimbabwe off the final ball, and Marnus Labuschagne's expensive bowling spell for Queensland against Victoria.

Yo Quiero Dinero: A Personal Finance Podcast For the Modern Latina
Let's talk about the conversation that sends me over the edge every single time: the gender pay gap, and what it REALLY costs women of color. This week I'm joined by Jocelyn Frye, President of the National Partnership for Women & Families, to break down what's actually driving the gap (spoiler: it's not "women's choices"), why the national averages hide what's happening to Latinas and Black women specifically, and what policy changes could put real money back in our pockets. We get into the wealth gap math (we're talking a MILLION dollars over a career, mi gente), the motherhood penalty, why DEI rollbacks are making things worse, and what you can actually do right now if you find out you're getting paid less than your coworker.WE GET INTO:00:00 — Intro: Why we're still talking about the pay gap in 202602:15 — What are we actually measuring when we say "pay gap"?04:17 — Debunking the "it's just women's choices" myth06:37 — The real numbers: 76 cents, 54 cents, and what the average hides08:24 — Why education alone doesn't close the gap10:35 — The unpaid care work baked into how workplaces are built11:47 — The wealth gap: what losing $900K–$1M actually looks like13:23 — Finding power in a hopeless-feeling conversation16:27 — The motherhood penalty, explained19:46 — Why so many moms are choosing entrepreneurship instead20:38 — Black and Latina moms as breadwinners22:40 — Do salary transparency laws actually work?23:57 — What to do if you find out you're underpaid26:28 — How DEI rollbacks are showing up in real workplaces30:24 — The "trad wife" pushback and what it means for women's choices35:06 — Jocelyn's 3 policy wishes for women's financial security37:17 — State level wins and what's next39:54 — Grounding policy in your actual paycheck43:15 — What you can do right now, no Congress required48:00 — What gives Jocelyn hope51:23 — How to support the National Partnership for Women & FamiliesKEY TAKEAWAYS:→ Latinas earn closer to 54 cents for every dollar paid to men, and the gap widens further when you break it down by race and part-time status.→ Education alone won't close this gap; the same degree, same experience, and there's still a pay gap. This is systemic, not individual.→ Black women lose an estimated $900K over a 40 year career because of the pay gap. For Latinas, that number can hit $1M.→ Motherhood changes everything financially. Moms who step out of the workforce to care for kids come back behind, and most never fully catch up.→ Caregiving is invisible labor with a real cost. Workplaces were built around a male default that assumes someone else, usually women, will handle caregiving for free.→ DEI rollbacks aren't just political theater, they're making it "safer" for employers to avoid hiring women and people of color, and harder to document discrimination at all.→ Salary transparency actually works. Posting pay ranges and banning salary history questions closes gaps faster than you'd think.→ You have options if you find a pay gap. Document it, talk to HR, and know that local civil rights and know your rights organizations exist for exactly this.→ State policy is already working. Comprehensive paid leave, universal pre-K, and childcare caps are already law in some states, and they're the blueprint for what's possible nationally.CONNECT WITH JOCELYN:

Fertility myths are everywhere and this week, we're setting the record straight. I'm sitting down with Dr. Sasha Hakman, a double board-certified OB-GYN and reproductive endocrinologist who brings something rare to this conversation: she's not just the expert, she's also walked her own infertility journey. Together we're busting the biggest myths keeping hopeful parents stuck, from how much prep time you actually need before trying to conceive, to why that period-tracking app on your phone might be leading you astray, to what really matters in a prenatal supplement. Dr. Hakman also shares surprising research on toxin exposure and egg quality, gets real about the stress-fertility connection, tackles the exercise question everyone gets wrong, and explains why male fertility testing deserves way more attention than a basic "normal" result. If you've ever felt confused or unsure of your own body's signals, this episode hands you the clarity and confidence to advocate for yourself on this journey.

Former Wall Street broker turned annuity evangelist, Stan the Annuity Man, argues the industry's most misunderstood product is actually the market's greatest ally. Lock in a guaranteed income floor, he says, and you'll never panic-sell your portfolio again. In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed: The income floor and non-correlated retirement income Four lifetime-income annuity types: SPIAs, DIAs, QLACs, income riders Why Wall Street resists annuities (wrap fees) Debunking the 4% rule Allocation limits, transparency, and anonymous quoting Key Takeaways: Own an annuity for what it will contractually do, never for what it might do. A guaranteed income floor doesn't compete with your portfolio — it protects it, because you're never forced to sell into a downturn. Annuities hold a monopoly on lifetime income; no other product can pay as long as you're breathing. The 4% rule collapses the moment markets fall, since you're still withdrawing while trying to recover losses. Never go all in: the industry itself caps annuities at roughly 50–60% of investable assets, and the goal is to solve the income gap with the least money possible. "If you want growth, don't buy an annuity. If you want guarantees, buy an annuity. It's that simple." — Stan The Annuity Man Connect with The Annuity Man: Website: http://theannuityman.com/ Email: Stan@TheAnnuityMan.com Book: Owner's Manuals: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/how-do-annuities-work YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCXKKxvVslbeGAlEc5sra2g Get a Quote Today: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/annuity-calculator!
This is the first chapter of Jeremy Kuzmarov's latest book, Political Assassinations in America: The Intricate Nexus of Deep State Crime. Each chapter reads like a murder mystery—and it is! The conspiracies behind these assassinations rarely, if ever, come to light, but Jeremy does his usual stellar job of sleuthing through the evidence and trying to solve the crimes. This first chapter is a free sample. After that, I'll be putting the readings behind a paywall. The book is hot off the presses, and I don't want to encroach on Jeremy's sales. Feel free to sign up for my free trial on Substack—it's 90 days, so you can get a lot of chapters in! I'll also add some commentary at the end of each chapter for those of you who want my thoughts—but no footnotes! For those, you'll have to buy Jeremy's book. And you should anyway—it's great!

How did bike lanes become the ultimate political wedge issue?In this episode of DemograFix, Cara Stern sits down with Tom Babin, urban cycling advocate and creator of the YouTube channel Shifter, to break down the growing "bike-lash" across Canada and the U.S. From provincial overrides in Ontario and Alberta to the culture wars dividing suburban drivers and downtown commuters, we explore why bike infrastructure generates such intense debate.We dive into the math behind induced demand, the reality of winter cycling, why "road diets" actually work, and how cities can design better, safer streets for everyone.Chapters:00:00:00 The Bike Lane Culture War00:03:10 Bike Lanes & Politics: Evidence vs. Fact00:05:03 How Amalgamation Ruined Everything00:06:29 Do Anti-Bike Policies Actually Win Votes?00:08:11 Why Biking Belongs on Both Sides of Politics00:09:22 Debunking the "Empty Bike Lane" Myth00:11:03 Why Pro-Bike Campaigns Are Failing in Suburbs00:12:48 Ravine Trails vs. Real Urban Mobility00:14:27 Do Winter Bike Lanes Actually Work?00:15:54 The "One More Lane" Traffic Fallacy00:17:47 Why Canadian Cities Build Bad Infrastructure00:19:50 The "Road Diet" FixResearch/links:Ontario just made a ruling that could inform bike lane removal cases across CanadaRemoving bike lanes will cost at least $48M: city staff reportGovernment of Alberta: Report concerns about bike lanesEdmonton council approves $100M for bike infrastructure across cityWashington State's new bicycle “Safety Stop” law allows people biking to treat stops signs as yield signs with some exceptions.Guest Tom Babin's official urban cycling and commuting YouTube channelHosted by Mike Moffatt & Cara Stern & Sabrina MaddeauxProduced by Meredith MartinEdited by Sean Foreman and Canadian Civil
Send us Fan Mail What's up, Plant People? Today I had the privilege of chatting with Derek Haynes, known on the interwebs as The Chocolate Botanist, to talk about what it takes to teach real botany and horticulture online while the algorithm rewards hacks and weaponized nonsense. We talked a lot about the weird reality of being a science communicator, from building a voice that actually connects to handling comments that demand impossible answers in 20 seconds. We talked too about our (least?) favorite plants hacks, like banana peel “fertilizer” water, coffee grounds as a magic nitrogen fix, gross DIY tricks, and the electroculture. Derek breaks down why these viral plant hacks sound believable, what they do to beginners' confidence, and how to use simple reasoning to spot red flags before you waste time, money, or a perfectly good pothos. Derek also spoke openly and honestly about being Black man in plant science and online education, including bias in workplaces, pay gaps in brand deals, and how much it can suck to go viral. Spoilers: it can really suck a lot. Even with that, he keeps building community and doing the thing because he's committed to good science and helping people grow better plants.

Material participation is one of the most important and misunderstood tax rules for real estate investors. In this episode of the Tax Smart REI Podcast, Tom and Nate debunk five common myths involving Real Estate Professional Status (REPS), short-term rentals, the 100-hour test, property managers, equipment rentals, and partnerships. They also explain when a spouse's hours count toward material participation, why those hours cannot be combined to meet the 750-hour REPS requirement, and what investors should know about Deferred Sales Trusts (DSTs). If you're using real estate losses as part of your tax strategy, this episode covers the material participation rules and misconceptions you need to understand.

Every PCS is either a financial reset or a financial opportunity, and most service members don't realize they get to choose which one it is. In this episode, I break down the exact framework I used (and would still use if I were still in uniform) to house hack at every duty station, from running your numbers in under an hour to knowing when renting beats buying. I walk through real deals, including my own house hack in Oceanside and my buddy Rio's five-bed dream home that now pays him fifteen hundred bucks a month, so you can see exactly what this looks like in practice and stop letting every PCS reset your finances back to zero.

BrownTown finally takes on the manniverse through a Fitness Against Fascism lens with internet homie Colin Davis, fitness coach and Lefty content creator. Contrary to what gyms, popular workout trends, or wellness influencers may tell you, physical fitness has always been political. Over the past decade alone we've experienced political flashpoint after political flashpoint that have demanded attention from all corners of our socialized life, including and especially fitness and algorithm-driven social media.Colin and BrownTown explain plainly why fitness is inherently political, underscoring that leaving room for "neutrality", in the field that often equates physical fitness with masculinity, has made space for impressionable young men to get caught up in the the so-called "manniverse". What begins as personal training tips to make dem gainz too often becomes a co-opted tributary into vapid looksmaxxing and hustlepreneurship before finally arriving at blatant misogyny, sexism, and other forms of prejudice. The former fringe corner of the internet over a decade ago has now influenced various industries, social groups, and halls power, most notably the White House.But on the flip side, progressives, leftists, and folx who just want a better world exercise and workout too! And we don't have to succumb to the violent, racist, fascist, and patriarchal forces that too often hijack our most human activities and relationships. Colin reminds us that, "Hard things are possible if you work at them." If we are to meet this moment -- online and IRL -- we have to get serious about just how political fitness is. The Technofascist Right already did.GUESTColin Davis is fitness coach at Five Point Training who began making content as a means to showcase a compassionate and community oriented alternative to the alienating rhetoric targeted towards young men. By incorporating an empathetic mindset, and positive perspectives on strength, his messages have resonated far beyond his original expectations, with features in Wired, Fox & Friends, and beyond. With the underlying goal to create alignment and connectivity across the aisle, he continues to be driven by the belief that with the right tools, resources, and positive figures, we can transition from a generation fueled by animosity and alienation and into one of kindness, optimism and community action.

On this special 9/11 edition of What's On Your Mind, Scott Hennen hosts a reflective, multi-faceted discussion on the legacy of September 11, 2025. A quarter-century after the attacks, the episode tackles a provocative question: Is it time to transition 9/11 commemorations from a national shutdown into a day of resolute remembrance, akin to Pearl Harbor Day? Featuring key perspectives from former White House advisor Mark Pfeifle and former North Dakota Adjutant General Mike Haugen, the show explores everything from the mechanics of air defense on that fateful day to current foreign policy challenges in Iran, ongoing political divisions, and the future of American national security. Standout Moments & Timestamps — The Question of the Day: Time to Change How We Remember 9/11? Scott introduces a controversial premise: After 25 years, should the country stop "ripping open the Band-Aid" every September 11 and instead treat it like Pearl Harbor Day—honoring the fallen without bringing the entire nation to a halt? — Inside Ground Zero & Media Echo Chambers North Dakota native and former White House communications strategist Mark Pfeifle shares his firsthand experiences at Ground Zero following the attacks. He and Scott discuss how media consumption shifted from unifying nightly family broadcasts to isolated, hyper-partisan social media channels. — Rethinking 25 Years of Airport Security & National Debt Scott and Mark question why TSA policies remain rigid and inconsistent 25 years later when modern threats have evolved into cyber warfare and autopilot hacking. Mark highlights the burden of America's $40 trillion national debt and the need for structural efficiency. — Economic Warfare and the Foreign Policy Dilemma in Iran The conversation shifts to modern geopolitical pressure points, specifically Iran, rising gas prices, and how economic sanctions and domestic inflation impact current American politics and leadership strategy. — Scrambling the Happy Hooligans: F-16s Over the Pentagon General Mike Haugen (Ret.) delivers a thrilling historical account of North Dakota's Happy Hooligans Air National Guard unit being uniquely scrambled—three armed F-16 jets taking off supersonic from Langley to establish a defensive Combat Air Patrol (CAP) over a burning Pentagon. — Debunking the Flight 93 Missile Rumors General Haugen sets the record straight regarding post-9/11 conspiracy theories, confirming via strict weapon serial-number logs that no military aircraft fired missiles or guns on Flight 93—and details the desperate plans unarmed backup pilots had to intercept rogue airliners. — Replaying History: George W. Bush's Bullhorn Speech…
Adam and Connor discuss one of the strangest conspiracy theories of all-time. In 1943, the Navy conducted a strange experiment in a naval shipyard in Philadelphia, and the results became the subject of wild claims and speculation that have persisted ever since.

There is a lot of conflicting information online about progesterone right now, particularly around whether women need to take it continuously, whether cycling is necessary, and whether progesterone can somehow interfere with estrogen or increase dementia risk. In this conversation, Dr. Phyllis Bronson, Carol Petersen, RPh, CNP, and Jill Chmielewski, RN, BSN, discuss some of the biggest claims circulating about progesterone and hormone therapy. The conversation explores the importance of progesterone, how different delivery methods can affect the way it works in the body, and why dose and individual response matter. They also discuss oral, topical and vaginal progesterone, the role of allopregnanolone, estriol and Bi-Est, and why measuring hormones in the blood doesn't always tell the full story of what is happening at the tissue level. They also tackle one of the biggest current controversies: the idea that continuous progesterone may increase dementia risk. The group discusses the evidence and theories behind this claim, the importance of balancing estradiol with progesterone, and why women need to be cautious about making hormone decisions based on simplified social media messaging. This is a wide-ranging conversation designed to give you more context, more questions to ask, and a deeper understanding of the ongoing debate around women's hormones. In this episode: The truth about continuous vs. cycling progesterone How progesterone works with estrogen in the body Oral, vaginal and transdermal progesterone: what's the difference? The controversy around progesterone and dementia risk Why hormone therapy needs to be individualized based on dose, delivery method and your unique response About Phyllis Bronson, PhD Phyllis Bronson, Ph.D., holds a doctorate in biochemistry.

For the first time since 1945, a far-right party bordering on Nazism has won real power in Germany. Brad Onishi and Matthew D. Taylor break down the AfD's stunning election result, Elon Musk and JD Vance's public support for the party, and what this signals about the global retreat from liberal democracy. Then, religious historian Warren Throckmorton joins to unpack Southern Baptist leader Al Mohler's growing alignment with Doug Wilson and Christian Reconstructionism — and why it marks a striking departure from historic Baptist commitments to church-state separation and religious liberty.

On a humid August night off the coast of Sicily, British billionaire, Mike Lynch, along with 21 other passengers, were sleeping soundly on Lynch's luxury yacht, the Bayesian. Then, all of a sudden, a surging storm hammered the vessel. Shockingly, within minutes the Bayesian had capsized, tragically sending Lynch, and 7 others down with her. Now, you'd presume this was just an unlucky case of nature's brutality. However, some theorists out there believe that somehow, Lynch was deliberately targeted that night! Intrigued?

For this Black Iron Prison Intercept, like any good Gnostic, I deconstruct and expose today's leading extraterrestrial models, based mostly on the excellent research of Kevin Cann and his book, UFOs and the Extra-Consciousness Hypothesis. Prepare to have all your conceptions of UFOs challenged to the point of no return. Say goodbye to Roswell, Kenneth Arnold, the Grays, Galactic Federations, and all that. Something has been interacting with human beings for thousands of years—and we still don't know what it is. The evidence is undeniable: radar returns, physical trace cases, mass witnessed events, and entity encounters that defy every conventional explanation we have. What we think we know about UFOs is almost certainly wrong, and the rabbit hole goes far deeper than bullshit governments, disclosure movements, or Hollywood have ever dared to suggest. The truth, it turns out, may not be out there at all — it may be in here. And the final truth, of course, is a Gnostic one. Kevin joined us for the member Q&A afterward, if he isn't abducted first.

Jason and Michael offers a critical analysis of Melody Wright, a real estate commentator accused of spreading unsubstantiated "doomer" narratives regarding the housing market. They specifically debunk her claims of widespread mortgage fraud, explaining that modern banking regulations and randomized appraisal processes make such conspiracies nearly impossible to execute. They emphasize that inflating property values for "cash-out refis" would require a criminal RICO conspiracy involving multiple parties, which is highly unlikely in today's strict lending environment. Ultimately, Jason and Michael argue that Wright's predictions of a housing market collapse are factually incorrect and designed primarily to generate social media engagement. The conversation concludes by highlighting the high transaction costs and legal risks that serve as natural deterrents to the fraudulent schemes Wright describes.

Twenty-five years ago, the Forest Service made one of the most consequential land management decisions in its history: protecting nearly 60 million acres of national forest from new roads and logging. That protection — the Roadless Rule — is now on the chopping block, with the USDA formally proposing to rescind it and a public comment period open through September 21. In this episode, we sit down with Chris Wood, president and CEO of Trout Unlimited, who helped write the rule from inside the Forest Service back in 2001 and has spent the decades since defending it. Chris breaks down the real economic, ecological, and cultural reasons the rule exists in the first place — from a $8.5 billion road maintenance backlog to jaw-dropping habitat numbers (75% of Idaho's Chinook and steelhead habitat, for example, sits in roadless country) — and then dismantles the arguments being used to justify tearing it down, including the Forest Service's own data showing roadless areas actually see more wildfire fuel treatment, not less. It's a clear-eyed, fact-first breakdown of what's really at stake for hunters and anglers, and a case for why showing up with data — not just outrage — is how this fight gets won. Comment on the Roadless Rule before September 21! Trout Unlimited's Roadless Report Chris Wood Roadless podcast with Hal Herring
