1. Zohran Mamdani and his New York City DSA Policies A city database published names and addresses of owners of certain high-value properties. The hosts characterize this as "doxxing" and argue it could expose property owners to harassment or threats. Mamdani's proposal for city-run grocery stores selling goods below typical market prices is criticized as a socialist or communist policy. Ted and Ben argue that government-run stores could: Undercut private grocery stores and bodegas. Reduce competition. Lead to shortages and inefficiencies. They expand into broader concerns about socialism, communism, and the direction of the Democratic Party. Political Analysis of the Democratic Party The influence of progressive and democratic socialist politicians. Figures such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC), Elizabeth Warren, Chuck Schumer, and Gavin Newsom. Predictions about future Democratic leadership and elections. Concerns that more progressive candidates could gain greater influence within the party. 2. Anthony Fauci and COVID-19 Fauci privately acknowledged influencing school closures and lockdown decisions during the COVID-19 pandemic. His private notes allegedly contradict some of his later public statements and congressional testimony. He knew early that the Wuhan seafood market might not have been the original source of COVID-19. He attempted to protect himself and his reputation regarding questions about: School closures. Lockdowns. The origins of COVID-19. Gain-of-function research. Ted and Bedn characterize Fauci as: A narcissist. Media-focused. Dishonest in his public communications during the pandemic.

If you were to make a list of those most likely to be chosen as disciples by Jesus in Capernaum, Matthew would have been at the bottom of the list. Disliked by all. Dishonest in his work. Disrespected by most who knew him. Yet today we'll see that Jesus calls Matthew's name and Matthew joins the disciples. - Pastor Ron KoolSupport the show

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the GRAND FINALE (Session 12) on lyin' Michelle Alexander's *The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness*. Alexander has a living White mother and a deceased Black father. Despite 15 years of institutional celebration for her work, Gus T. anticipated this title being one of the "5 Worst Books Ever." History shows that racists generally do not promote literature that provides an accurate understanding of the System of White Supremacy. This week, we drop the final Mario Elie "Kiss of Death" three-pointer on this text, permanently closing the casket on a 15-year academic hustle. We open the final chapter, *Obama: The Promise and the Peril*, and interrogate the absolute peak of her biographical dishonesty where she explicitly labels Affirmative Action a "racial bribe" that Black people must surrender to play academic "games of chicken" with their own survival. We back up our 12-week forensic media audit by deploying a devastating 14-minute custom audio track from our own 2010 CREE archive and 2016 public media slips. We let the Pusha T, Kendrick Lamar, Ray Charles, and Neely Fuller Jr. audio do the talking because Michelle Alexander has officially fouled out of the game! THE 15-POINT FORENSIC AUDIT SUMMARY: 1. The Manufactured "Underdog" Narrative: Claims she launched to half-empty rooms to conceal the massive institutional "push" that put her on C-SPAN, NPR, and Democracy Now within 5 months of publication. 2. Systemic Deception by Omission: Completely erases COINTELPRO, Jon Burge's torture ring, Attica, and the Black Panthers to bury earlier, more accurate structural work on the Prison-Industrial Complex. 3. Hidden Biographical Motivation: Willfully conceals her multi-ethnic background to hide her personal family defenses under the guise of objective scholarship. 4. Centering White Trauma: Explicitly argues that White women who chose to have interracial relationships under Jim Crow were primary, injured victims of a racial caste system. 5. The Fraudulent "Bribe" Thesis: Claims White people must be "bribed" to practice Racism, belied by a System of White Supremacy where whiteness automatically requires total domination. 6. Reckless Statistical Manipulation: Arbitrarily changes her state prison violent offender statistic from 33% to 52% between editions with zero data reconciliation or explanation. 7. Specious Claims as Fact: Drops massive, sweeping assertions straight onto the print page with absolutely zero footnotes or supporting empirical documentation. 8. The 1980s Progress Myth: Asserts that by the 1980s, the vast majority of White people opposed the practice of Racism—a completely ahistorical claim unsupported by any evidence. 9. Pathologizing Defense Mechanisms: Labels Affirmative Action a "racial bribe" for Black people, telling the victims of state terror to disarm while the system keeps its weapons. 10. Erasing the Real Beneficiaries: Refuses to inform readers of macro-data showing that White women have historically benefited most from Affirmative Action pipelines. 11. The "Accidental" Absolution: Labors mightily to frame the White power structure as ignorant, well-meaning, and "accidentally" racist to shield calculated state intent from exposure. 12. Coddling Whites, Targeting Black Institutions: Sweeps away structural White guilt while using print space to aggressively scold the CBC, the NAACP, and Bill Cosby. 13. Minstrel Linguistic Framing: Selectively quotes Black interviewees in broken, stereotypical English to frame them as inarticulate and implicitly deserving of incarceration. 14. Double-Dipping the Carceral Ledger: Hides that her husband Carter Stewart profited as a federal prosecutor caging Black bodies, while she profited off the fake literary outrage industry. 15. White-Identified Pronoun Usage: Deploys a slippery use of "we," "us," and "our" to identify with White spaces and lump the victims of Racism in as equally culpable for the system.

Every lie has a cost—and eventually, someone pays it.In Part 3 of our Can I Be Honest? series, we discuss the devastating impact dishonesty has on a man's life. From broken relationships and damaged reputations to delayed purpose and spiritual distance, we unpack what happens when men continue believing and protecting lies.We also explore how secrets become prisons, why people eventually stop trusting dishonest men, and how God's grace often leads us toward repentance before consequences become our greatest teacher.Most importantly, we discuss why telling the truth isn't just for others to know the real you—it's so you can finally face the real you and begin the work of transformation.What You'll LearnWhy dishonesty traps men emotionally and spirituallyHow deception damages marriages, friendships, and familiesWhy lies eventually become part of your identityThe relationship between honesty and spiritual growthHow God's discipline leads to restorationWhy integrity is essential for purpose and leadershipHow truth becomes the foundation for lasting changeWho This Episode Is ForMen pursuing personal developmentChristian men seeking spiritual maturityMen struggling with secret sinMen rebuilding trust and integrityLeaders wanting to grow in characterAnyone ready to stop living behind liesdishonesty, honesty for men, integrity, men's personal development, Christian masculinity, accountability, truth and freedom, overcoming hidden sin, spiritual growth for men, rebuilding trust, biblical manhood, emotional maturity, purpose for men, men's discipleship, character development, becoming a better man, living with integrity, Christian men's podcast

Research shows that honesty is the single most important characteristic a person can possess when it comes to liking them, respecting them, and understanding them. But honesty is eroding in many areas of society today, as we are confronted with honesty crises in politics, education, relationships, religion, celebrity culture, and technology. Over the past 50 years, no single philosopher has offered a comprehensive exploration of honesty—how we define it, how it diverges in private and public spaces, and how it depends on shared perceptions of reality. Dr. Christian Miller addresses this gap, while showing how modern life increasingly rewards dishonesty, with profound consequences for our relationships, institutions and culture—a phenomenon he names The Honesty Crisis (Oxford UP, 2026). From cases such as sermon plagiarism to AI-assisted cheating to the rise of fake news, Dr. Miller explores how dishonesty has become easier, more pervasive and even normalized in our society. Yet The Honesty Crisis does more than diagnose the problem: it proposes concrete, practical steps to preserve honesty where it matters most. Guest: Dr. Christian B. Miller is the A. C. Reid Professor of Philosophy at Wake Forest University. The author of numerous articles and books, he also directed The Honesty Project, one of the largest research initiatives ever undertaken on honesty. Host: Dr. Christina Gessler is an academic writing coach and editor. She holds a Ph.D. in history which she uses to explore which stories we tell and what happens to those we never tell. She is the creator, producer and show host of the Academic Life podcast.

Caleb Froedge discusses Acts 5:1-4—“But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession. And he kept back part of the proceeds, his wife also being aware of it, and brought a certain part and laid it at the apostles' feet. But Peter said, ‘Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back part of the price of the land for yourself? While it remained, was it not your own? And after it was sold, was it not in your own control? Why have you conceived this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men but to God.'”

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”Confusion spreads fastest where people most need clarity, and right now a lot of young adults are walking back into the Catholic Church because they are done with half answers. Jack sits down with Father Brian Gannon, pastor of St Teresa Church in Connecticut and executive director of Courage International, to talk about truth, mercy, and the spiritual battle surrounding sexuality and discipleship.We explain what Courage International actually is: a Church-sanctioned apostolate serving men and women who experience same-sex attraction and who freely choose to live according to Catholic teaching. Father Gannon directly answers an accusation that surfaced around the Synod on Synodality's “study group #9,” namely that Courage promotes reparative or conversion therapy. He calls that claim false and lays out Courage's real mission: chastity, friendship, prayer, formation, and sacramental life, plus EnCourage support for parents and loved ones who want to stay faithful while loving well.If you want a serious, compassionate, and plain-spoken Catholic conversation about same-sex attraction, chastity, and the truth that sets us free, press play. Subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review so more people looking for clarity can find the show.Visit Courage International to learn moreTo assist young men seeking "The Truth of Things"...join us at...Claymore Milites ChristiSupport the show

Welcometo Pastor's Chat. Today we're in Psalm 15, and we're looking at verse 5. We'vebeen talking about how to practice what the Apostle Paul encouraged the churchat Philippi to do in Philippians 2:3–4: to esteem others better than themselvesand to carry about their lives in lowliness of mind and humility. When we dothat, there are practical things we need to do. To me, Psalm 15 describes someof these very practical applications we can make in our lives that will help usfulfill what Paul talked about in Philippians 2. Nowwe come down to verse 5. Verse 5 says this: “He who does not put out hismoney at usury, nor does he take a bribe against the innocent.” Now theword “usury” usually has to do with interest. You do not put out your moneysimply for oppressive gain through interest. This is not saying you should notinvest in the stock market. It is not saying you should not put your money in asavings account that draws interest. This is talking about personal financialintegrity. Inall of our business dealings, God cares about how we treat people financially.In the Old Testament, you will find several cases where people loaned out moneyto make interest, but they charged exorbitant interest. They literally broughthardship upon other people and almost placed them into slavery because of theinterest they demanded. Sometimes this still happens in our culture and societytoday. The Bible is telling us, as believers, that we are not to put hardshipon others financially simply for our own personal gain. Again,He is speaking about our finances and our business dealings. God cares abouthow we treat others financially. In Proverbs 11:1 it says, “Dishonest scalesare an abomination to the Lord, but a just weight is His delight.” If wewant to enjoy fellowship with God, we must live honestly and fairly. ThenDavid closes this chapter with a beautiful promise: “He who does thesethings shall never be moved.” Oh,my friend, what stability! What security! The person who walks with God has asteady life. Trials may come. Storms may rage. But they are anchored in theLord. Psalm 16:8 says, “I have set the Lord always before me; because He isat my right hand I shall not be moved.” Aswe close this chapter, may we remember something very important: none of usperfectly measure up to Psalm 15. If we are honest, we all have failed in ourspeech, our thoughts, our tongue, our motives, and our actions. Ultimately,Psalm 15 points us to Jesus Christ, the only perfectly righteous One who trulyfulfilled every one of these qualities. He alone walked uprightly. He alonealways spoke the truth. He alone never sinned with His tongue. He aloneperfectly pleased the Father. Becauseof His death and resurrection, we can be forgiven, cleansed, and brought intofellowship with God. Hebrews 10:19 says, “Therefore, brethren, havingboldness to enter into the Holiest by the blood of Jesus.” Today, if wereally want fellowship with Jesus Christ—sweet fellowship with the Lord—we mustwalk closely with Christ, confess sin quickly, guard our tongues, livehonestly, and cultivate a heart that fears God. I'masking today: Is there anything in your life that is hindering your fellowshipwith the Lord? Are you walking uprightly before Him? Are you speaking the truthin your heart? My friend, when you draw near to God, we are promised that Hewill draw near to you (James 4:8). Itrust and pray that you, by God's grace and through the Holy Spirit, live outthese truths found in Psalm 15, so that God's promise will be fulfilled as youenjoy and experience a life of stability and security. Godbless you and may you have a wonderful, wonderful day!

Joyce Vance was U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Alabama. I'm grateful to her for sharing her views on today's shameful and dishonest Supreme Court decision kneecapping Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, in which Samuel Alito pretends he's not nullifying Section 2 while doing exactly that.

What happens to our character when being dishonest becomes easier and more rewarding than ever before? Wake Forest University philosophy professor Dr. Christian Miller joins host PJ Wehry to discuss the "honesty crisis" and how modern technology reshapes our most fundamental virtue. Dr. Miller explores the findings of The Honesty Project and his book The Honesty Crisis: Preserving Our Most Treasured Virtue in an Increasingly Dishonest World. They examine the psychological and philosophical boundaries of honesty to reveal how motivation is just as important as truth-telling. In this conversation they explore: Why honesty requires more than just accurate behavior and must include selfless or dutiful motivations. The flaws of a "mixed bag" character where people act honestly in some settings but reliably cheat in others. How the rise of AI and the internet created a "double-fold" crisis by increasing the incentives to lie while making it easier to avoid detection.The specific moral dangers of sermon plagiarism and why using AI to generate religious messages compromises the integrity of the speaker.Why celebrity culture creates a negative feedback loop that encourages protecting a public image through deception. Practical strategies for maintaining honesty through community accountability and frequent moral reminders. This is a conversation for anyone interested in psychology and ethics who wants to understand the hidden forces eroding our integrity and how to build a more honest life. Make sure to check out Dr. Miller's book: The Honesty Crisis: Preserving Our Most Treasured Virtue in an Increasingly Dishonest World

This episode is brought to you by Your Clockwise Week—a personalized weekly structure built around your actual life, not an ideal one. If your week feels full but not fitting, you can learn more at mikevardy.com/yourclockwiseweek.Most of us have been taught that trying is virtuous — that saying "I'll try" signals good intentions and a willingness to show up. But what if trying is actually a way of opting out? What if it's the most socially acceptable excuse we've built into our language — a built-in escape hatch dressed up as effort? That's the question that sits at the center of this conversation, and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since we recorded.Carla Ondrasik spent twenty years in the competitive world of music publishing — a world where trying, in her words, means dying. She's worked with artists at the highest levels of the industry, and she's spent the last two decades studying the psychology and neuroscience behind why we say we'll try and what it actually costs us. Her book, Stop Trying: The Life Transforming Power of Trying Less and Doing More, is one of those rare reads that reframes something so ordinary and so deeply ingrained that you can't un-see it once it's been named. I know, because she caught me using the word in the middle of our conversation — while talking about her book. That's how deep this goes.Six Discussion PointsTrying is a mental activity, not a physical one. Carla makes a simple but devastating distinction: doing is a strong, determined action; trying is the loop you run in your head while the thing stays undone. The "try test" she walks through in the episode makes this viscerally clear in about thirty seconds.We use "try" to avoid accountability — and to avoid saying no. The word opens a door for excuses and blame before anything has even been attempted. Carla unpacks how trying functions as a social shield, letting us appear committed while quietly reserving the right to bail.Talking about what you're trying to do tricks your brain into feeling like you're doing it. The dopamine, serotonin, and adrenaline hits from announcing your intentions are real — and they're why so many people are still "trying to write a book" five years later. Talking about it is stealing the reward your brain should only get from finishing it.Saying "no" clearly is kinder than saying "I'll try." People pleasing drives a huge portion of our try behavior, and it's one of the most corrosive patterns Carla covers. An honest no respects everyone's time and attention — including your own. The other person stops saving you a seat. You stop dreading the follow-up.Silence protects the doing. Carla wrote her entire book without telling most people. The reason is strategic, not secretive: outside opinions — even well-meaning ones — introduce doubt, friction, and the need to justify the work before it's done. Protecting your goals with silence is a way of keeping all the energy pointed in one direction.A no-try life starts small. Awareness comes first, then one small completion — the junk drawer, the bag of clothes you meant to donate. The neurochemical reward from finishing even a tiny thing creates the momentum to do the next one. This is how the pattern breaks.Three Connection PointsCarla's book and resources: stop-trying.com — including where to find the book in print, digital, and audio formats.Carla on Instagram: @carlaondrasik — she posts daily reminders and real-world examples of the try/do distinction.Related reading on intentional action: Stop Doing Productive and Start Being Productive — if the distinction between trying and doing resonates, the idea of moving from doing productive to being productive goes even deeper here.The shift Carla is describing isn't just semantic — it's a structural change in how you relate to your own intentions. When you stop using "try" as a buffer between yourself and commitment, something has to fill that space: a real decision, in either direction. Do it or don't. Both are more honest than the middle ground most of us live in. If this conversation landed, I'd encourage you to sit with it before moving on. And if you've got someone in your life who lives in try mode — consider what one honest conversation might make possible.If this episode resonated, I'm exploring ideas like these more deeply in my upcoming book, Productiveness. You can follow along as it takes shape at mikevardy.com/productiveness.

How to Go from Not Enough to More than Enough 2 Kings 4:1–7 Now the wife of one of the sons of the prophets cried to Elisha, “Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared the Lord, but the creditor has come to take my two children to be his slaves.” 2 And Elisha said to her, “What shall I do for you? Tell me; what have you in the house?” And she said, “Your servant has nothing in the house except a jar of oil.” 3 Then he said, “Go outside, borrow vessels from all your neighbors, empty vessels and not too few. 4 Then go in and shut the door behind yourself and your sons and pour into all these vessels. And when one is full, set it aside.” 5 So she went from him and shut the door behind herself and her sons. And as she poured they brought the vessels to her. 6 When the vessels were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another vessel.” And he said to her, “There is not another.” Then the oil stopped flowing. 7 She came and told the man of God, and he said, “Go, sell the oil and pay your debts, and you and your sons can live on the rest.” (ESV) 1. Margin is what I have beyond what I need Proverbs 21:20 The wise store up choice food and olive oil, but fools gulp theirs down (NIV) 2.

Margin has more to do with my mindset than my money Proverbs 21:20 The wise have wealth and luxury, but fools spend whatever they get (NLT) Proverbs 23:5 Cast but a glance at riches, and they are gone, for they will surely sprout wings and fly off to the sky like an eagle (NIV) Proverbs 13:11 Dishonest money dwindles away, but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow (NIV) 4. Margin allows you and I to live on mission Proverbs 22:7 The borrower is slave to the lender (NIV) 2 Corinthians 9:8 And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work (NIV) 2 Corinthians 9:10-11 Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness. 11 You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God (NIV)

Is academic dishonesty connected to political power in China? That question is explored in a new paper from Shaoda Wang, Assistant Professor at the University of Chicago Harris School of Public Policy. Wang and his co-authors explore how plagiarism detection in graduate dissertations is connected to patterns of cheating in career paths and institutional behavior. What lessons might this hold for politics, meritocracy, and institutional performance elsewhere? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode we explore “dishonest harmony” as situations that look peaceful but feel wrong because a group collectively ignores an obvious problem to protect emotional comfort over emotional truth. They describe how this shows up in families (e.g., excusing harmful behavior like racism or dysfunction as “that's just how they are”), friendships (private venting while publicly pretending everything is fine), romantic relationships (avoiding hard conversations, calling neglect “peace,” tiptoeing and self-abandonment), and workplaces (silence rewarded, people who question problems labeled difficult). They argue that peace requiring self-betrayal is not real peace, that suppressed truth blocks growth and intimacy, and that breaking silence isn't ruining harmony but refusing to lie for it.

Proverbs 20:23–24 joins two powerful truths about God's authority over life. Dishonest weights and measures are an abomination to the Lord, revealing His deep concern for integrity in everyday dealings. At the same time, a person's steps are ordered by the Lord, reminding us that human understanding is limited and dependent on divine direction. In today's Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart explore how honesty reflects reverence for God, why fairness matters in small things, and how trusting the Lord's guidance brings humility and confidence in an ordered life.

Proverbs 20:10–12 reveals the Lord's concern for justice, integrity, and spiritual awareness. Dishonest weights and measures are an abomination to God, exposing how corruption often hides behind everyday transactions. Yet the passage also reminds us that the Lord Himself fashioned the hearing ear and the seeing eye—nothing escapes His notice. In today's Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart examine how God measures fairness, why integrity matters in both public and private life, and how living wisely begins with remembering that the God who gave us eyes and ears also sees and hears all.
