But this year, things step up a little…a certain R&B mogul is seeking an invite, as are a bunch of superstar running backs (Saquon, anyone?), the main man in Vatican City and many more. Plus, don't miss YOUR chance to invest in a rare piece of Baltimore Ravens merchandise...Finally, we attempt to answer the big question: who is George Pickens' dad?Who would you invite?TIMESTAMPS:00:00 Intro00:42 Formalities + Menu09:46 Guests Part 116:00 Toilet Break16:18 Investment Opportunity 17:56 Banned Guest18:46 Guests Part 2#nfl #nfldraft #steelersnation #steelernation #beardown #chicagobears #calebwilliams #browns #sanders #aaronrodgers #pdiddy #diddytrial #flyeaglesfly SPORTS CARDS: Follow Sports Card World Adelaide on InstaBEARD CARE: Use code OUTBACK at jerichoaustralia.com for 15% off.BEER: Use code OBQB2024 at thesuburbanbrew.com.au for 15% off their core range.

On this episode, Tarik and Ann lead things off by previewing the No Rules Dinner Party, a remarkable 19-course event celebrating women-owned businesses. You'll also hear them celebrate the highly anticipated first brick-and-mortar location of Ruby's Bagels; explore the history of the often-overlooked Muffaletta sandwich (as well as the place to get one in Milwaukee); talk about the Oaxacan cuisine you can get at new restaurant Flor de Piña; and deliver the scoop on Halal Restaurant Week happening June 7-15.

It’s National Biscuit Day, and the team is celebrating with crumbs, chaos, and a little bit of AI madness. We talk about the bloke who threw away a hard drive holding 8,000 Bitcoins—now worth nearly $900 million—and is so committed to finding it, he’s trying to buy the actual landfill. We also get stuck into the new Barbara Walters doco, a viral (and fake!) video of a support kangaroo trying to board a plane, and a lip reader revealing what Brigitte really said when she shoved her husband, French President Macron. In the Glossy’s, Beyoncé does a gender reveal live on stage, Lorde drops a surprise performance in a New Zealand loo, and Shaq reveals he’s becoming a sports psychologist. Plus, Joel takes us deep inside his very own MAFS-style dinner partySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's the season for barbecues, backyard parties and other gatherings, and after receiving an invitation, many guests will follow up with the age-old question: “What should I bring?” Food writer and cookbook author Casey Elsass shares recipes and party etiquette advice from his new book What Can I Bring?: Recipes to Help You Live Your Guest Life.

In this deeply moving and insight-rich episode of Gratitude Through Hard Times, host Chris Schembra welcomes Sara Hardwick, the Community Relationship Strategist at the Gift•ology Group and steward of the late John Ruhlin's enduring legacy. What begins as a conversation about gifting quickly unfolds into a masterclass in human connection, spiritual resilience, and the transformative power of long-game generosity.Sara shares her unexpected journey into this world of relational marketing—how a nudge from her college roommate and a single Google search led her to John's work, and how her bold outreach blossomed into a mentorship, a career, and a calling. Chris and Sara reflect on how the principles of Beyond Gift•ology are not just business strategies—they're spiritual frameworks for living well, loving deeply, and leading with purpose.The episode pays tribute to John Ruhlin, a father, husband, and business visionary who turned gifting into an art form and relationship-building into an enterprise. John passed away in 2024, but his wisdom—"Relationships can take you places marketing can't"—lives on in the systems, stories, and spirit that Sara now helps shepherd to the world.Together, Chris and Sara unpack practical strategies from Beyond Gift•ology: how to build a business based on Return on Relationship (ROR), how to gift without branding or ego, and how to become what Adam Grant calls a “strategic giver”—someone who gives generously and wisely without burning out.They explore the nuances between swag and soul, between a gift that gathers dust and a gift that transforms a relationship, and between a one-off act of kindness and a lifestyle of sustained generosity. Sara also speaks vulnerably about her faith journey, how her relationship with God guides her every decision, and how grief, gratitude, and giving are all connected.Chris draws parallels between his own work at the dinner table and John's commitment to elevating relationships through thoughtful gestures. They explore how tiny, consistent acts—handwritten notes, engraved knives, warm introductions—create ripple effects that build not just revenue, but legacy.Whether you're a founder, a sales leader, a service-based professional, or simply someone who wants to live more intentionally in your relationships, this episode offers a generous mix of soul and strategy. It's a reminder that business doesn't have to be cold, marketing doesn't have to be manipulative, and giving—when done well—can be your greatest competitive edge.What You'll Hear in This Episode➤ A Powerful Opening TributeChris opens with a personal story of how a 20-minute call with John Ruhlin in 2017 changed his life. That call turned into a two-and-a-half-hour conversation, a lasting mentorship, and the permission to go “all-in” on human connection.➤ Sara's Origin Story: From College Gifting Club to Gift•ology LeaderYou'll hear how Sara's best friend Chloe encouraged her to Google “gift giving company”—a search that led to John Ruhlin's work and, eventually, to Sara founding the internet's largest gifting community while still in college.➤ The Long Game of Generosity: ROR > ROISara and Chris dive deep into the difference between Return on Investment (ROI) and Return on Relationships (ROR). Sara explains why short-term thinking in business keeps us stuck—and how giving first, without expecting anything in return, can actually become your greatest long-term growth engine.➤ Gifting as Strategy, Not SwagSara outlines the key rules of strategic gifting:It's not about you—it's about the recipient. No logos, ever. Personalize for their life, not your brand. Love on the inner circle—spouses, kids, even the family dog. Focus on “practical luxuries” that create 5,475+ moments of thoughtfulness over time.➤ The Rise of the Rich Relationship SocietySara introduces the R.I.C.H. framework:Reciprocal Influential Connected HumbleShe shares how this system is designed to help entrepreneurs and service-based professionals build referral-based businesses rooted in trust, warmth, and mutual growth.➤ Jesus, Dinner Parties, and the Divine Power of a KnifeIn one of the most personal moments, Sara credits her faith—and specifically, her renewed relationship with Jesus—as the compass guiding her work. They connect the dots between Jesus' Last Supper, dinner tables as sacred community spaces, and how something as simple as a personalized kitchen knife can become a legacy of love.➤ Beyond the Business Tactic: Legacy as the Ultimate ROIThe episode closes with a powerful reminder: while gifting is a strategy, true generosity is a posture of the heart. Sara shares that she's not just playing for business success—she's playing for eternity. Key TakeawaysGenerosity isn't a transaction—it's a transformation. Strategic gifting isn't about getting something back immediately. It's about creating meaningful moments that compound over time.Your swag isn't a gift—it's a billboard. The most powerful gifts are useful, personal, and logo-free.Business is human-to-human. In a world overrun with AI, algorithms, and advertising, it's the relationships built at your dinner table—not your Instagram grid—that truly move the needle.Legacy is built in the little things. A handwritten note. A kitchen knife. A prayer. A hug. These are the moments people remember. Links & ResourcesBeyond Gift•ology by John Ruhlin – Buy the bookLearn more about the Rich Relationship Society – giftologygroup.comContact Sara Hardwick – sara@giftologygroup.comConnect with Sara on LinkedIn – linkedin.com/in/sarahardwickGiftology (Original Book) – Buy here

During his first months in office, President Donald Trump has issued about 150 executive orders and is taking action on the very issues he promised during the campaign. There've been dramatic changes in immigration in the form of mass deportations despite concerns over a lack of due process. The administration continues to make good on moves to cut the federal workforce, government agencies and a variety of government-funded organizations. And nearly every day there's economic news about Trump's reciprocal tariffs with countries around the world and the impact on the global economy. With all of this to digest, it's time for another Us & Them dinner party as host Trey Kay brings together guests of varying political persuasions to share a potluck meal and their views on President Trump's first 100 days in office.

In October 1997, a chilling crime unfolded in Canberra, Australia. Anu Singh, a law student at the Australian National University, drugged her boyfriend Joe Cinque's coffee with Rohypnol at a dinner party. Over the next 36 hours, she injected him with heroin multiple times. Despite his deteriorating condition, she delayed seeking help, and when paramedics arrived, it was too late. Following this case the law changed in the Australian capital territory ending the option of homicide trials being heard by a judge only. Sources: Poisonous Liaisons:S1, E13 Toxic Affairs https://www.nowtolove.com.au/news/local-news/anu-singh-speaks-out-about-killing-joe-cinque-37386/https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/canberra-breakfast/joe-cinque-death-at-downer-20th-anniversary/9087140https://fawesome.tv/tv-shows/10468007/s03-e05-anu-singh-crimes-that-shook-australia&utm_source=social_share&utm_medium=website_fawesometv_copylink&utm_content=video_screenhttps://time.com/archive/6647083/everything-but-the-truth/Send us a textEmail Residue: residuepodcast@gmail.comFind RESIDUE online:Instagram: @residuepodcastTik Tok: @residuepodcast Facebook: Residue:A True Crime Podcast Credits: RESIDUE is Hosted/Produced/Researched/Edited by Chrissy Champagne THEME SONG: "Dance Of Death" by Purple Planet Music collection written and performed by Chris Martyn and Geoff Harvey.

Wie immer diskutieren wir im ersten Teil unseres Programms über einige aktuelle Ereignisse. Wir beginnen heute mit einer traurigen Nachricht, über die auf der ganzen Welt gesprochen wird – Papst Franziskus ist gestorben. Anschließend sprechen wir über den 82. Jahrestag des Aufstands im Warschauer Ghetto. In unserem wissenschaftlichen Thema besprechen wir eine Studie, die über mögliche Anzeichen von Leben auf einem fernen Planeten berichtet. Und wir beenden den ersten Teil des Programms mit einer Diskussion über die veränderte Einstellung britischer Frauen im Alter von 18 bis 34 Jahren zur Änderung ihres Nachnamens.

Jesus sat at the table with His closest friends: the ones who had seen miracles, walked with Him, learned from Him. And right there beside them… was Judas.

Hey everyone, and welcome back! I am so excited to have Carla Fernandez on the podcast today. She's a grief guide, community builder, the author of Renegade Grief, and co-founder of The Dinner Party, an organization that creates spaces where people who have experienced loss can gather around a table and share their stories. Carla's work centers on reimagining how we approach grief, not just as individuals but as communities, especially in a culture that often rushes us to move on or only makes space for certain kinds of grief. We discuss young grievers, toxic positivity, what people get wrong about grieving, and losing someone you don't exactly "miss."
