**Exploring the Depths of Horror and Identity** This episode of the podcast delves into the world of horror films but it's not just about scares and thrills. The conversation with the writer and director of the critically acclaimed film Leviticus, Adrian Chiarella, takes a deep dive into the themes of identity, faith, and fear. From the film's origins in the writer's personal experiences to its exploration of conversion practices and the impact on the LGBTQ+ community, this conversation is a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of horror and social commentary. Adrian Chiarella shares the story behind Leviticus, from its early days as a script to its premiere at Sundance and subsequent release. He discusses the film's themes of identity, faith, and fear. How they relate to his own experiences growing up as a gay man. The conversation also touches on the importance of representation in horror films and the impact of the film's release on the LGBTQ+ community. One of the standout aspects of Leviticus is its unique blend of horror and coming-of-age themes. The film's use of a supernatural entity to explore the fears and anxieties of adolescence is both terrifying and thought-provoking. Adrian Chiarella's direction and the performances of the cast bring the story to life in a way that's both haunting and relatable. If you're interested in horror films that push the boundaries of the genre and explore complex themes, this episode is a must-listen. Join us as we discuss the making of Leviticus and the impact it's had on audiences around the world. Listen to the full episode to hear more about the film's origins, its themes, and the experiences of the cast and crew.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's 'guest' is HAD's This Month in Astronomical History.  I'll be reading more essays from the archives: Emily McMahon's November 2020 essay titled, "Sedna: In the Depths of the Solar System", and Dr. Ken Rumstay's November 2022 essay titled, "Lunokhod 1 - The First Extraterrestrial Rover". Please note that Emily was a high school student when she wrote her essay, so you don't have to be an astronomer or astrophysicist to write for TMIAH.   H'ad astra historia is the official podcast for the Historical Astronomy Division of the American Astronomical Society. We're here to share stories from and about the people who study the stars, planets, and the cosmos. We'll be hearing from individuals who not only study the history of astronomy, but also those who lived it, who were "in the room" during pivotal events within the last 50 years or so.     Podcast theme music: "Frost Waltz" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com), licensed under creative commons: by attribution 4.0 license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)    Loretta Cannon (an AAS affiliate via Rose City Astronomers) is a science-and-word-nerd who really likes outer space and the people who study it.

1936 Minnesota Football Team Hotel Fire: Timothy Brown detailed an incident from 1936 where the University of Minnesota football team, coached by Bernie Beerman, experienced a hotel fire while traveling for a game against Washington. While the team was staying at the 175-room Florence Hotel in Missoula, Montana, a fire broke out at 4:00 in the morning. Because the building lacked an alarm system, a newspaper reporter discovered the smoke, prompting a manual evacuation. Although two players were initially missing, they were safely located after using a fire escape. While the team lost many personal belongings, such as watches, jewelry, and national championship charms, their game equipment remained safely on the Pullman train cars. The team traveled to Seattle and won their game 14-7, and the Minnesota company Joins later replaced the lost championship charms.The conversation is based on Tim's recent article titled: When The Gophers Played With Fire (1936)- https://www.footballarchaeology.com/p/todays-tidbit-when-the-gophers-played⏰ Timecodes ⏰00:06 The Gophers and Their Fiery Challenge02:35 The Lawrence Hotel Fire Incident04:25 The Aftermath of the Fire06:16 The Aftermath of the Fire07:16 Exploring the Depths of Football HistoryGrab a copy of our latest book, "Red Grange & Chicago Bears 1925-1926 Barnstorming Tour: 100th Anniversary Scrapbook" written by NFL Film's Chris Willis, and compiled by Darin Hayes https://amzn.to/4r8rVypDon't forget to check out and subscribe to the Pigskin Dispatch YouTube channel for additional content and the regular Football History Minute Shorts.Miss our football by the day of the year podcasts, well, don't, because they can still be found at the Pigskin Dispatch website.

Out of the Depths of Anguish to the Heights of Assurance ~ Rev. Austin McCann Out of the Depths of Anguish to the Heights of Assurance ~ Psalm 130 Download

WSTR Galactic Public Access — Episode 436: Rodians In this episode of WSTR Galactic Public Access, Todd Hoffman returns to the show to continue the Rishi's Species segment, this time focusing on the Rodians—the reptilian, swamp-dwelling species best known for Greedo, the iconic bounty hunter from Star Wars: A New Hope. Todd explores what makes Rodians so recognizable, from their bug-like eyes and suction-cup fingers to their rough, pebbly skin and reputation as cunning hunters. The conversation looks at how their species is portrayed across Star Wars lore, including appearances in the Cantina, the Clone Wars, Return of the Jedi, Rebels, and the Bad Batch, and asks whether Greedo has unfairly become the defining Rodian in fan memory. The episode also digs into the broader cultural and storytelling potential of Rodians, comparing them to Mandalorians, discussing their possible role in bounty hunting and crime dramas, and imagining what kind of Star Wars series could center a Rodian lead. Along the way, Todd touches on behind-the-scenes trivia, including the evolution of Greedo's name, production notes, and the voice work that helped shape the character. News of the Week Todd covers three Star Wars headlines: "May the Force Be With You" was ranked the best Star Wars quote of all time in a recent Parade article Hasbro revealed a Jaina and Jacen Solo Black Series two-pack Reports suggest Star Wars: Starfighter footage may have been shown at a Disney cinema event Cantina Chat The episode closes with a personal catch-up: Carla is traveling for wedding shower celebrations Heather has officially embraced her cat-lady era Todd shares family updates, Father's Day gifts, and recent gaming talk, including Red Dead Redemption, Fortnite, and anticipation for Grand Theft Auto VI Call to Action WSTR invites listeners to share their thoughts on Rodians, Greedo, and underrated Star Wars species via social media, voicemail, or email. The show also teases next week's topic: the 40th anniversary of Labyrinth.

In this episode, discover how a routine dive turns into a nightmare for Steve Farrell, whose obsession with a mysterious accident uncovers terrifying secrets lurking in the depths.We unravel the story of the Santa Helena and the chilling clues that suggest the ocean hides more than just wreckage — it conceals echoes of death itself. You'll hear how a seemingly simple salvage mission exposes the invisible cost of bravery, and how fear can distort perception when you're far below the surface.We break down:The psychological toll of diving into the unknown and how fear manifests in extreme environmentsThe eerie significance of the ship's real and ghostly names and what they reveal about the pastThe disturbing connection between delusions, underwater accidents, and unspoken truths that no one wants to faceThe subtle clues that hint how trauma and guilt can follow you into the depths, impacting your reality and decisionsThe power of ritual, like Lipton's noodle soup, as a symbol of comfort amid chaos, drawing us to the surface of our fearsWithout this knowledge, divers risk not just their lives but their sanity. With it, they unlock a deeper understanding of what lies beneath — and how to confront it.

In today's culture, it's nearly impossible to avoid seeing sexualized images and messages. That means we must diligently protect our hearts. Otherwise, we'll be influenced—we'll be corrupted.   Maybe some of you already sense that your hearts aren't where they should be. If that's the case, then the question becomes “how can my heart be made clean again?” In this episode, Pure Life Ministries Events Manager, Josh Rowand, talks about how today's Christian can not only navigate a sexualized culture, but go deeper with the Lord in the process.   Resources we mentioned: Why You Should Read (Podcast Series) By Pure Life Ministries How to Minister to Christians in Sexual Sin (Seminar for Pastors and Counselors) Out of the Depths of Sexual Sin (The Autobiography of Steve Gallagher) I Dared to Call Him Father: The Miraculous Story of a Muslim Woman's Encounter with God (The Autobiography of Bilquis Sheikh) God's Hostage: A True Story of Persecution, Imprisonment, and Perseverance (Memoir) By Andrew Brunson The Pilgrim Church (Book) By EH Broadbent   Have Any Questions for Us?

This week, Pastor Austin preaches through Jonah 1:17–2:10, showing that the God who is sovereign over our deepest descents meets us there with a severe mercy, pursuing rebels, hearing sincere cries from rock bottom, and granting second chances so that we repent, abandon our idols, and proclaim with Jonah that salvation belongs to the Lord, even for the "Ninevites" we'd write off.

Christian Ashley and Jill Elizabeth dive deep into the 2022 film "Prey," a prequel in the iconic Predator franchise, fresh out of their Drive-In theater experience. They kick things off with a major takeaway: this flick flips the script on traditional storytelling with its strong female lead, Naru, who stands tall against both the titular predator and the colonizing French trappers. Jill's enthusiasm shines through as she praises the film's feminist undertones and its respectful portrayal of Native American culture. Christian chimes in, relishing the clever nods to mythology and the way the film weaves in themes of ecological balance and colonization. With a mix of insightful analysis and light-hearted banter, they explore how "Prey" not only revives the franchise but also makes a statement about who the real monsters are in a world driven by conquest and survival. Exploring the cinematic landscape of the Predator franchise, the discussion dives deep into the film 'Prey,' a fresh take that not only revives the series but does so with a keen sense of cultural awareness. Christian, Jill, and Ash break down the film's narrative, which centers on Naru, a young Comanche woman who defies traditional gender roles to become a warrior in her own right. Jill expresses her enthusiasm for the film's feminist undertones, noting how Naru is portrayed not as a mere accessory to the male-dominated plot but as a fully developed character who stands at the forefront of her own story. The dialogue flows effortlessly as they dissect the film's themes of colonization, identity, and survival within a historical context that isn't often acknowledged in mainstream cinema. They highlight how Naru's journey is emblematic of the struggle against both the literal and figurative predators that seek to undermine her existence. As they navigate through the film's plot points, special effects, and character development, the hosts manage to weave in their personal experiences and insights, creating a rich tapestry of conversation that encourages listeners to rethink what a 'hero' looks like.Takeaways:Christian and Jill dive into the film 'Prey', exploring its fresh perspective as a prequel in the Predator franchise, which brings much-needed female representation to the forefront.The duo praises the film's protagonist, Naru, emphasizing her growth from an underestimated hunter to a capable warrior, showcasing a journey of self-discovery and empowerment.They discuss the cultural themes in 'Prey', particularly the depiction of colonization and its impact on Native American culture, cleverly intertwining it with the notion of who the real predators are.Christian highlights the film's unique setting in 1719, away from the typical American expansion narrative, which adds depth to the story and challenges traditional tropes in action films.Jill points out the lack of a 'white savior' trope in the film, which is a refreshing take, allowing Naru's character to shine without falling into cliched pitfalls.The conversation wraps up with a humorous take on their favorite movie snacks and beverages for the Drive-In, showcasing their relaxed vibe and camaraderie.Mentioned in this episode:Systematic GeekologyOur show focuses around our favorite fandoms that we discuss from a Christian perspective.

Julie Nelson and Chris Magruder sit down with Stephanie Parks — Director of Campus Ministry at Dowling Catholic High School in Des Moines and co-author of Michelle Duppong: Hope in the Depths of Suffering (written with Patti Armstrong) — to tell the story of a modern woman whose life and death are captivating the Church. Who Was Michelle Duppong? Born in 1984 and raised on a North Dakota farm, Michelle was a faithful Catholic who experienced a powerful conversion through FOCUS and Eagle Eye Ministries summer camp. After graduating from North Dakota State University in Fargo, she served six years as a FOCUS missionary — opening campuses and discipling students — before joining the Diocese of Bismarck for adult faith formation. In late 2014, she was diagnosed with stage four cancer and given two months to live. She lived a full year more, transforming everyone around her — hospital staff, nurses, cafeteria workers — through her contagious joy. She died on Christmas Day, 2015, surrounded by her family. Her cause for canonization was officially opened in 2022, and she now holds the title Servant of God. The Book Stephanie co-authored Michelle Duppong: Hope in the Depths of Suffering with Patti Armstrong, whose connection to Michelle's family in Bismarck perfectly complemented Stephanie's perspective from inside FOCUS. The book covers Michelle's life, her heroic suffering, and the signs of hope her family experienced after her death — including a beautiful account from her sister Lisa. How to Support Michelle's Cause Prayer cards are available. If you experience a grace through Michelle's intercession, report it to the Guild overseeing her cause. Also in This Episode — Sacred Heart of Jesus, June 2026 June 11th: The USCCB will consecrate the United States to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, coinciding with the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence — a first in American history. Enthronement resources: WelcomeHisHeart.com Film: Sacred Heart: His Reign Has No End — screening in Des Moines, Waukee, and Waterloo on June 9, 11, and 12.

Welcome to Day 2868 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2868 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 130:1-8 Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2868 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2868 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The Title for Today's Wisdom-Trek is: The Song of Ascent – Out of the Depths of the Cosmic Abyss In our previous episode on this grand pilgrimage, we traveled along the rugged trails of the tenth Song of Ascent, Psalm One Hundred Twenty-Nine. We confronted the gritty, painful reality of the survivor. We looked at the deep, bloody furrows plowed across the back of the covenant community by the wicked—the earthly agents of the rebel spiritual principalities. Yet, we celebrated the triumphant, sharp justice of Yahweh, who stepped onto the field and sliced the harnesses of oppression in half. We saw that while the haters of Zion look elevated, they are ultimately nothing more than shallow roof-grass, destined to wither into worthlessness under the heat of divine judgment. Today, we take our next deliberate, introspective steps up the mountain pass toward Jerusalem. We are exploring the eleventh song in this ancient collection: Psalm One Hundred Thirty, verses one through eight, in the New Living Translation. Historically, this deeply moving psalm has been known in the Christian tradition by its opening Latin words, De Profundis, which translate to, "Out of the Depths." The psalmist shifts our focus from the external persecution of worldly enemies, to the internal, suffocating weight of personal and corporate guilt. We are moving from the battlefield of physical survival, into the profound spiritual depths of the human soul, learning how to cry out for mercy when we are drowning in our own brokenness. Let us step onto the trail, and listen to the desperate cry for redemption. The first segment is: Crying from the Chaotic Waters of Despair Psalm One Hundred Thirty: verses one and two. Out of the depths of despair, O Lord, I call for your help. Hear my cry, O Lord. Listen to my prayer. The song opens not with a shout of triumph, but with a muffled, echoing cry from the dark. "Out of the depths of despair, O Lord, I call for your help. Hear my cry, O Lord. Listen to my prayer." To truly comprehend the terrifying weight of this opening, we must view the imagery through the lens of the Ancient Israelite worldview. The Hebrew word for "depths" is ma'amaqim. In the ancient Near East, the deep, dark, and churning waters of the ocean were not viewed merely as a geographic feature; they represented primeval chaos, the cosmic abyss, and the terrifying domain of death. The sea was the playground of Leviathan, and the watery throat of Sheol—the underworld. To be in "the depths" meant you were drowning, completely overwhelmed by cosmic forces, suffocating in total darkness, and entirely cut off from the land of the living. But what has dragged the psalmist down into this spiritual abyss? It is not the armies of Babylon this time; it is the realization of his own sin. The depths of despair represent the suffocating environment of guilt. When you recognize how far you have fallen from the cosmic blueprint of the Creator, the psychological weight can feel like a multi-ton tidal wave, pinning you to the ocean floor. Yet, look at the direction of his cry. Even from the bottom of the chaotic abyss, wrapped in the dark currents of his own failure, the pilgrim directs his voice straight upward. He calls out to the Name of Yahweh. He begs, "Hear my cry, O Lord. Listen to my prayer." This is an act of fierce, desperate faith. The rebel spiritual forces—the corrupt elohim of the Divine Council—want the guilty soul to believe that it is permanently abandoned, that the abyss has claimed them forever. But the psalmist refuses to listen to the blackmail of the enemy. He knows that the voice of the Creator can penetrate the deepest, darkest waters of the cosmic void. When you are drowning in your own brokenness, you must use your final breath to send an SOS straight to the heavenly throne room. The second segment is: The Celestial Ledger and the Scandal of Grace Psalm One Hundred Thirty: verses three and four. Lord, if you kept a record of our sins, who, O Lord, could ever survive? But you offer forgiveness, that we might learn to fear you. Standing before the cosmic courtroom of heaven, the psalmist poses a chilling, rhetorical question that seals the fate of all humanity. "Lord, if you kept a record of our sins, who, O Lord, could ever survive?" In the ancient Near Eastern worldview, it was believed that the gods kept rigorous, celestial ledgers. The rebel principalities kept meticulous books, recording every infraction, every mistake, and every failure of mankind, utilizing those records to extort, torture, and condemn human beings. They demanded absolute, flawless perfection, but provided absolutely no grace. If Yahweh operated on the same system, the cosmic trial would be over before it even started. The Hebrew word for "survive" here means to stand. If God brought out the unedited ledger of our hidden thoughts, our compromised motives, and our outright rebellions, every single human being, every angel, and every member of the council would instantly collapse under the weight of perfect justice. No one could stand. But then, the psalmist introduces a staggering, paradigm-shifting truth that completely shatters the cosmic legal system of the enemy. Verse four declares, "But you offer forgiveness, that we might learn to fear you." This is a beautiful, supernatural paradox. In our human way of thinking, we assume that if a judge lets a criminal off the hook, the criminal will lose all respect for the law. We think that punishment produces fear, and forgiveness produces carelessness. But in the economy of the Most High God, the exact opposite is true. The rebel gods of the pagan nations used fear and guilt to manipulate their followers into slavery. They never offered true, total forgiveness; they only offered temporary, expensive truces. But Yahweh performs a miracle of grace. He skims off the record of our sins, completely erasing the ledger through His covenant love. When a human being, drowning at the bottom of the abyss, experiences the overwhelming, unmerited release of divine forgiveness, it triggers a profound, holy shockwave in their soul. They don't become careless; they become utterly captivated. They develop a deep, trembling, and reverential awe—the true "fear of the Lord." They realize they are dealing with a King who is too good, too powerful, and too merciful to ever be trifled with. Forgiveness doesn't produce license; it produces absolute, unswerving loyalty to the true Sovereign of the cosmos. The third segment is: The Hyper-Vigilant Vigil for the Sun of Righteousness Psalm One Hundred Thirty: verses five and six. I am counting on the Lord; yes, I am counting on him. I have put my hope in his word. I long for the Lord more than sentries long for the dawn, yes, more than sentries long for the dawn. Having received the assurance of forgiveness, the psalmist transitions into a posture of patient, yet hyper-vigilant, waiting. "I am counting on the Lord; yes, I am counting on him. I have put my hope in his word." The Hebrew word for "counting on," or "waiting," is qavah, which carries the visceral idea of twisting cords together to make a strong rope. It implies an active, muscular tension. The pilgrim is not waiting passively, like a person sitting bored in a doctor's office. He is binding his soul tightly to the promises of God, bracing himself for the long watch. He has anchored his hope exclusively to the "word"—the cosmic decrees and covenant oaths of Yahweh. He illustrates the intensity of this waiting with a beautiful, hauntingly repetitive military metaphor in verse six. "I long for the Lord more than sentries long for the dawn, yes, more than sentries long for the dawn." To understand this, we must remember our previous treks through the Songs of Ascents, specifically Psalm One Hundred Twenty-Seven, where we learned about the vital role of the watchman guarding the city walls. Imagine a sentry stationed on the high stone battlements of Jerusalem during the ancient night watch. The darkness around him is heavy, absolute, and infested with hidden dangers. The enemy principalities and their human proxies do their most destructive work...

The current war with Iran is significantly less popular than the Vietnam War was at its lowest point. Polling suggests an 80% disapproval rate, compared to the 60-70% disapproval seen during the depths of the Vietnam conflict. The administration is perceived as being trapped in a "sunk cost fallacy," pursuing a failing course of action to protect the leader's reputation, similar to the "one day at a time" strategy that led to the "shambolic defeat" in Vietnam. The sources note a historical pattern of the U.S. successfully overthrowing regimes only to create failed states, citing Somalia, Yemen, Syria, Libya, Iraq, and Ukraine as examples. 3/31968 VIETNAM WAR
