Senator Jon Ossoff recently walked into Beulah Missionary Baptist Church in Decatur, Georgia, opened the Book of Amos, and delivered one of the most theologically precise speeches I've heard from any political figure in years. In 8 minutes and 41 seconds, he did what MAGA pastors with massive platforms and full-time theology staffs refuse to do: name the corruption, place it in a 3,000-year-old prophetic tradition, and connect it to the suffering of real people in real zip codes. Ossoff is not pandering. He's not decorating a political speech with Bible verses. He's doing exegesis — and he's doing it in front of a Black Baptist congregation with a 60-year covenant to the civil rights movement. That matters theologically.

In this deeply personal episode of Midlife Revival, Dr. Taniqua Miller shares the story behind the creation of Revival Women's Health and why she ultimately walked away from academic medicine to build a new model of care for women in midlife.After years working inside a traditional healthcare system shaped by volume, rushed visits, insurance limitations, and physician burnout, Dr. Miller realized something profound:The way we were caring for women — especially women navigating perimenopause and menopause — simply wasn't working.In this episode, she opens up about:Her journey from OB/GYN residency to becoming a Certified Menopause SpecialistThe patient encounter that changed how she viewed menopausal medicine foreverThe hidden realities of physician burnout and moral injuryWhy 7-minute appointments fail women in midlifeThe emotional and logistical burdens women face in fragmented healthcare systemsThe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on healthcare delivery and physician well-beingWhy she chose a concierge/direct specialty care model for Revival Women's HealthHow Revival integrates gynecology, hormone therapy, sexual health, and cardiometabolic care under one roofThe importance of community, partnership, and relationship-centered care for women in midlifeDr. Miller also shares the deeply personal experiences — including caregiving for her mother during cancer treatment — that reinforced her desire to build a practice where women feel truly seen, supported, and held.This episode is for the woman who knows there has to be a better way to navigate midlife healthcare.Because midlife care should be more than prescriptions and rushed appointments.It should feel like partnership.It should feel intentional.It should feel like coming home.Connect with Revival Women's Healthhttps://www.joinrevival.co/Follow Dr Taniqua Miller on Instagram @taniquamillermd and Revival Women's Health @joinrevival.Georgia listeners!

A unique Illinois program helps incarcerated mothers stay connected to their children through family visits, crafts, meals, and love.

What started as a simple attempt to fill my son's prescription turned into weeks of frustration—and a moment that made me pause.Not just because of the delay.But because of how it felt to move through a system that offered little guidance, little connection, and no sense of being cared for.In this episode, I unpack that experience and what it reveals about modern healthcare—and why so many midlife women feel dismissed, rushed, and left to figure it out on their own. In This Episode, We Cover Why healthcare today often feels transactional  How “efficiency” is replacing human connection  The rise of “crowdsourcing” your health  Why so many women feel like a burden in medical spaces  What it looks like to experience truly supportive care Key Takeaways:If you've ever walked away from a healthcare interaction feeling unheard or unseen…You're not asking for too much.You're asking for better care.Ready for a Different Experience?If you're in Metro Atlanta and this resonates, I invite you to take the next step.

There are many different kinds of Dharma practice— hundreds of different mantras to recite, all kinds of meditation—but the most important of them all is the practice of compassion. -Lama Zopa Rinpoche Lama Zopa Rinpoche discusses how no matter how you lead your daily life—in retreat, studying Dharma, chanting sadhanas, reciting mantras or putting in long hours at the office—if you never let compassion leave your mind, if you constantly keep in mind the thought of benefiting others, everything you do becomes work for the welfare of others. These teachings were given during a four-day course at Tilopa Center, Decatur, Illinois, in August, 1997 and published in the LYWA free book, Virtue and Reality, edited by Nicholas Ribush.

The Backwoods America series kicks off in north Alabama with one of the strangest and most persistent cryptid legends in the American South. The Alabama White Thang.A tall, pale, hair-covered creature that has walked the back roads and hollers of this state for more than a hundred years — screaming from two ridges over, standing in the middle of dark country roads, and sometimes, when it decides to, coming back the next night. This is the first stop on a fifty-state cryptid road trip.Over the coming months we're going coast to coast, every two-lane highway and dirt cut and red clay holler we can find, documenting the creatures that local people have been talking about for generations. Some of these episodes will land on names you already know. Most won't. The goal is to surface the stories that have stayed local for a century — the ones the farmers and hunters and night-shift workers only let out when they've decided you might believe them.In this premiere we cover the historical roots of the White Thang, going back through Cherokee folklore and the figure of Tsul'kalu, the Scots-Irish settler tradition that fed Southern wild-man legends, and the earliest written references to the creature in north Alabama newspapers in the early-to-middle twentieth century. We dig into the geography that has let the legend last — the Bankhead National Forest, the Sipsey Wilderness, and the kind of broken Appalachian foothill country where a small persistent population of something could hide indefinitely. Then we work through encounter accounts spanning four counties and four decades. A man named Daryl, who came up out of a bridge in Morgan County after the late shift at a parts plant outside Decatur and saw something standing in his headlights that he could not explain away. A bow hunter named Tommy, who watched it duck through the brush in Walker County and made a deliberate choice not to draw his bow. The Whitlock family, who endured a multi-week stalking case at their property in Marshall County in 2003 that ended with pressure against the back door and three trail camera photographs of something that should not exist. A woman named Rebecca, who saw it standing in the woods behind her grandmother's grave in a small family cemetery in rural Jefferson County. A turkey hunter named Daniel, who held a shotgun on it across a clearing in the Sipsey and walked out knowing he was not supposed to run. And a young couple named Lauren and Jacob, who saw it on a back road in Walker County and then, two nights later, looked out their back window and realized it had come with them.If you have a story of your own — something that happened to you, or to somebody in your family, or to somebody you trust — send it in to brian@paranormalworldproductions.com. Every email gets read. Names stay out of it on request.Have you experienced a Bigfoot sighting, Sasquatch encounter, Dogman experience, UFO sighting, or any unexplained cryptid or paranormal event deep in the woods? We want to hear your story.Email your encounter to brian@paranormalworldproductions.com for a chance to be featured on a future episode of Backwoods Bigfoot Stories.Backwoods Bigfoot Stories is a paranormal storytelling podcast featuring real Bigfoot encounters, Sasquatch sightings, Dogman reports, cryptid experiences, and true scary stories from the backwoods.Follow the show and turn on automatic downloads so you never miss a chilling encounter from the forest.

There's a message circulating right now that says:“If your doctor offers you the birth control pill in perimenopause… something is wrong.”And I want to slow that all the way down.Because when it comes to midlife care—oversimplified advice can do more harm than good.In this episode, I'm breaking down the role of the birth control pill in perimenopause—not from social media takes, but from clinical reality.Because the truth is:Perimenopause isn't just about hormones declining.It's about hormones fluctuating.And for many women, it's those fluctuations that are driving symptoms like mood changes, sleep disruption, and unpredictable bleeding.So instead of asking: “Is the pill good or bad?”A better question is: What problem are we trying to solve?This episode invites you to think differently about: Why birth control pills are sometimes used in perimenopause  How stabilizing hormone fluctuations can relieve symptoms  The difference between suppressing your cycle vs. replacing hormones  Why one approach may work beautifully for one woman—and not for another Because here's what I want you to walk away with:There is no one “right” treatment. There is only the treatment that is right for you.And sometimes that includes options we've been taught to question.

Travels With Randy Route 66 Episode 16 is here! And We End At The Beginning! Illinois - Springfield To Navy Pier Route 66 Historical Sites Tour Randy shared his experiences visiting historical sites along Route 66 in Illinois, including a tour of Ace Sign Company in Springfield, a business spanning six generations, and Funk's Grove, a maple syrup farm operating for five generations. He discussed the unique presence of giant roadside statues in Illinois, particularly noting the state's fondness for large human figures. The conversation also included a brief exchange with Beth about the prevalence of city names like Atlanta across different states. AI Voice Assistant Capabilities Discussion The discussion focused on two main topics. First, they discussed the common town name "Riverside" and how it appears in nearly every U.S. state, though not quite every state. Second, they explored the capabilities of an AI voice assistant named Beth, who was able to provide instant, relevant responses to questions about van travel and Route 66. The conversation concluded with an observation about increased traffic and international visitors on Route 66, though the speakers noted this might represent different levels of "picking up" for them versus local experts. Central Illinois Childhood Experiences Bubba discussed his experiences growing up in Central Illinois, particularly around towns like Decatur and Warrensburg. They talked about the weather in the region, with Bubba sharing his experiences of harsh winters and pleasant summers. Randy shared an interesting find during a photography trip along Route 66, discovering a junkyard artist creating sculptures from heavy equipment. The conversation concluded with a discussion about photography as art, with Randy expressing his perspective on capturing existing art rather than creating it himself. Academic Achievements and Energy Discussion Bubba and Randy discussed Bubba's son's academic achievements and potential college tuition assistance. They then conversed about the prevalence of windmills in central Illinois, comparing them to solar farms and discussing the challenges of wind energy. The conversation concluded with a discussion about the different areas of Chicago and its suburbs, particularly focusing on Route 66's path through the region. Route 66 Murals Discovery Randy shared his experience visiting Pontiac, Illinois, where he discovered a series of murals created by the Wall Dogs artist group in 2009. He discussed a particularly impressive Route 66 mural featuring cars from different eras and a futuristic vision, as well as learning about Bob Waldmire, an artist who traveled Route 66 and lived in a van before passing away in 2009. The conversation concluded with Randy receiving encouraging feedback from Beth about his own travels and photography along Route 66. Route 66 Travel in Illinois Randy and Bubba discussed their Route 66 travel experiences in Illinois, particularly around Wilmington and Joliet. Randy explained how different Route 66 alignments exist in Illinois, with the state doing a good job of marking the correct route with regular signage, especially along business routes. They noted that Illinois maintains the route well, unlike some other states where signage can be inconsistent or confusing. Route 66 Travel Experience Discussion Randy shared his experience traveling Route 66, highlighting Illinois's improved signage system and the recent change in Chicago's ceremonial starting point to Navy Pier. He discussed the logistics of visiting the new starting point, noting parking challenges for larger vehicles. Randy recommended allowing two days per state for the journey, suggesting early morning drives and considering the timing for viewing neon signs. Route 66 Travel Experiences Randy shared his experiences traveling Route 66 across 8 states, noting that Kansas stood out to him due to its small size and strong commitment to the route, while Texas was his least favorite section due to poor signage and lack of engagement from local authorities. He praised Oklahoma, Missouri, and Illinois for their effective signage and town participation, and highlighted New Mexico's unique historical route through the Santa Fe Loop. Randy expressed hope that the upcoming Route 66 Centennial celebrations would encourage more people to experience the historic route, particularly families taking summer road trips. Route 66 Project Planning Meeting Randy and Bubba discussed their new Route 66 project, including a 16-month calendar and a 10-pack of postcards featuring photos from the route. The calendar will go to production in June and be ready for shipping in July, with a website launch planned for Sunday. They are also working on establishing two locations per state where the calendar and postcards can be purchased. Bubba will handle storage and shipping through his book business, and they plan to continue posting photos on their Facebook page and potentially start new photo series in the future.   SO. MANY.

The call came in as a fire. What firefighters found inside was far worse. In March of 1994, three people were discovered dead inside a Westlawn Avenue home in Decatur, Illinois. The investigation led police to James David Dyer, a man already feared by one of the victims and already named in a court order. This episode follows the threats, the violence, the chase, and the aftermath of a case that left one town shaken. Check out our new American Hauntings Podcast Network for even more spooky shows.Have a question or comment?

You've been told everything is normal.Your labs? Fine.Your periods? Still coming.So why does your body feel… different?This is the quiet, often overlooked phase of midlife that I see in clinic every single day— early perimenopause.And here's the problem:It doesn't always show up in ways medicine has been trained to recognize.Because early perimenopause doesn't announce itself loudly.It whispers.It looks like subtle shifts… Shorter cycles. Broken sleep. A mood that feels unfamiliar. A sense that something has changed—but no clear explanation why.And too often, that experience gets dismissed.In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on how I actually think about early perimenopause as a clinician—beyond the lab values, beyond the textbook definitions.Because the truth is: Normal labs don't mean nothing is happening. They just mean we're not asking the right questions.This conversation is about helping you: Trust what your body is telling you  Understand the early shifts of the menopausal transition  Recognize why your experience may not “fit the mold”  And most importantly—know that there are options Because midlife isn't just something to push through.It's something to understand.To navigate.To be supported through—with intention.If you've been feeling off, dismissed, or unsure of what's happening in your body— this episode will help you start connecting the dots.
