Podcasts about doberman

Are your dogs up to date on vaccines? On this week's episode, we talk dosing your dog for vet appointments, because a high dog might just be a happy dog, Ali's latest health scare—with a happy ending—a kerfuffle in the Beachwood Canyon dog-osphere, and the story of one very lucky and deeply loved Doberman. Tune in for all that and more on this week's Dear Dog.

Dr. Henry Cloud is a clinical psychologist, leadership consultant, and New York Times bestselling author whose books have sold nearly 20 million copies worldwide. His titles include Boundaries, Integrity, Necessary Endings, and Trust. For three decades, he has worked with leaders, helping them close the gap between where they are and where they want to be. His newest book is Your Desired Future: The Five Essential Steps That Take You Where You Want to Go. Key Learnings Henry's five-step model for getting from here to there: Vision (clear and compelling) Talent (engaging the right people around you) Strategy and plan (how you'll win) Measurement and accountability (how you'll know) Fix and adapt (course-correcting in real time) At the age of 16, Henry's daughter asked, "Dad, how do people become singer-songwriters?" Henry went out to the garage and brought in his whiteboard. Lucy rolled her eyes. He gave her the five-step model. A couple years later, she published a song called "Crash and Learn" that got bought by CBS, the CW Network, and featured on Spotify and Apple Music. We tend to create departments and businesses in our own image. Of the five components, we're going to be good at two, maybe three. But the others still have to happen. That's where most leaders fail. Only humans can picture a desired future state. Finley is Henry's Doberman. When the FedEx guy comes to the door, she runs to it, and barks every time. Henry has never seen her stop and ask herself: "I wonder if that barking will help me get to where I want to be on Thursday." Most leaders are operating like Finley. Working hard. Doing what they've always done. Never stopping to ask if any of it is getting them where they want to be. You need an observing ego. The worst thing you can do is hit the accelerator harder when you're going down the wrong road and you don't even know where you're going. Tony Blair, while Prime Minister, spent half a day a week sitting by himself next to a pond in reflection. Warren Buffett spends an hour and a half a day at his desk staring out the window.  A revenue number is not a vision. The single worst vision statement Henry ever heard: "We want to be a $50 million company." It provides no clarity of what the company is going to do.   A vision is a compelling picture of a future state that makes people want to sacrifice for it. If your vision wouldn't inspire anyone to get out of bed early, it's a metric, not a vision. Will Guidara created a "dream maker" role at Eleven Madison Park. Their job: listen for clues from guests, then create a personalized, unexpected, memorable experience the guest will never forget and tell everyone about. Trust Fuels Investment. People invest in leaders who feel like they understand them. You're taking your team into a war. They've got to have deep trust with you. The first thing a leader has to do is develop deep, deep trust and let their team know that they understand the pressure they're under. "A vision can die without a plan or without people." Alan Mulally's weekly 7:00 AM Thursday meeting at Ford. Every VP had to give every project a red, yellow, or green status. When Mulally first arrived, the company was hemorrhaging money. Everyone was holding up green. He said: "How can you be holding up green when here's the reality over here? I need some reality in here." When one VP finally held up red, Mulally moved him to sit next to him. The wrong view of accountability is looking back to spank somebody for what they didn't do. The right view of accountability is a tool to make sure we reach our destination. You get what you create or what you allow. Henry was working with a global CEO whose team had cultural problems. Henry kept asking, "Why is that?" After a few rounds, the CEO finally said, "I guess I am ridiculously in charge, aren't I?" If you are the one actually in charge, you are ridiculously in charge. Either you're creating it, or you're allowing it. Accountability answers two questions: Did we do what we said we were going to do? If not, why not? Don't just tell people to "do better." Run a root cause analysis. Maybe they don't have the tools. Maybe you gave them competing goals. Maybe it's a leadership problem. If we executed perfectly, did we get the result we expected? If yes, pour on the gas. If no, go back up the model and adjust your strategy. Most leaders measure goals, not activities. Goals are lagging indicators. You can measure them after it's over. It's too late. Measure activities. Did we do this week what we said we were going to do? Micro drivers matter. Henry worked with a CEO who built multi-billions in valuation from a one-office company who was excellent with micro drivers. It's an atomic compression of the 80/20 rule. He knew the specific activities at each level of the business that actually moved the needle, and he made those objects of extreme awareness, focus, training, and deliberate practice. Peter Drucker said, "Nothing's worse than perfectly executing the wrong things." The number one thing the greatest leaders share: character. Not moral or ethical character. Your makeup as a person. How you're glued together. Integrity comes from the word that means wholeness. The great performers are drivers of tasks and relationships. The highest performers utilize coaching the most. Henry expected the disastrous leaders  to be the ones calling. It was the exact opposite. The ones crushing it are the ones who reach out. The struggling ones rarely do. The greatest leaders reverse the law of entropy: things get worse over time. But entropy only applies to a closed system. Open the system to a new energy source from the outside plus intelligence to organize it, and you can reverse it. That's what coaches, mentors, and advisors do. A leader is a closed system when the only voices they're ever listening to are the ones in their head. The greatest leaders embrace negative realities. They move toward problems. Not to nuke them, but to either resolve them or transform them into something better. Reflection Questions In how many areas of your life are you just barking at the door, working hard at activities without ever stopping to ask if any of it is getting you where you want to go? Is your current vision a metric, or a compelling picture of a future state that would make people want to sacrifice for it? Where in your life are you a closed system? Whose voices outside your head could open you up to new energy and intelligence?

TRANSCRIPT Aline: [00:00:00] Gissele: Hello and welcome to the Loving Compassion Podcast with Gissele. We believe that love and compassion have the power to heal our lives and our world. Don’t forget to like and subscribe for more amazing content. Today we’re talking about the power of grief.  with Alene c Davis, who’s a creative mentor and an akashic channel who walks alongside sensitive souls at the beginning of their remembering after a life-changing accident. In years of learning to live with central sensitivity syndrome, she now shares her experience as a guide through inner work and self-healing. Gissele: Through her podcast, accepting your sensitivity and practices rooted in ritual and story, she offers a gentle invitation towards deeper remembering self-acceptance and authenticity. Please join me in welcoming Aline. Gissele: Thank you. I so resonated with your story. So as I was mentioning before the recording, my dog passed away. It’ll be [00:01:00] November, it will be a year in November, and we had him till he was 13 and he was a Doberman shepherd. Gissele: did I do everything I could have done? And I felt so. Guilty. And I did not expect that I, in the beginning, I didn’t even want a dog. I never had a dog growing up. And it was my husband who wanted a dog, but that dog became my dog. He was like my Velcro dog. Aline: My baby girl passed. It was two weeks today. And lots of people would say, oh, two weeks, Aline: She came back yesterday forever. Oh God. And this is my first recording of any kind. Without her, I mentioned to you a moment ago, I went live and read a poem afterwards, but actually doing a recording that it is to inspire and help people. This is my first one. And I asked if she can be here and help me. Aline: we’d had a really gorgeous day. She was giving me signs anyway, and in the [00:02:00] morning something happened and I contacted my own vet and I said, please, can you come and see her? Aline: And he didn’t have a car. And I said I don’t want to put her in the car because, I don’t want to disturb her. she had a little accident, let’s just put it that way. And then I, so I cleaned her up and we were lying on my bed. I had all my beautiful music on from my spiritual mentors, their incredible healing music, which she loves. Aline: And we listened to, I was in a workshop with my mentors last year in Germany. We were listening to the whole the first half of that. And we both fell asleep. And then I woke up, she woke up, we stretched out and I was like, oh, this, oh, it just felt really normal. And then the vet messaged me and said, I don’t like the fact that she’s sleeping and that she, you think she’s got anemia? Aline: You need to take her to another vet. And I was like, I don’t want to put her in the car. Gissele: Yeah. Aline: And then I jumped on the bandwagon of his fear rather than just stepping back and going, do you know what She’s comfortable, we are [00:03:00] in this space, this beautiful space. And I, at that point, I was feeling she was getting better because she was starting to walk. Aline: She was at one end of the bed and she walked towards me and then just laid down next to me. Normally she was here. So we lay and like I said, we fell asleep together. And then we would always touch pauses. I’d always sing to her. And it didn’t matter where she was in the house, she would find me because she loved the vibration of singing. Aline: So wherever I was, wherever she was, she could feel me singing and she’d be. Like 10 seconds later she’s there, or she’s either on my lap or in my face where you know her, wherever I was singing. And so I made my peace with it because I don’t know what would’ve happened. We got to this other vet, which was a half an hour drive away, unfortunately 40 minutes in the end. Aline: And it was a very hot day, and I’ve never been apart from her in the vet. And they said, we need to do a blood test. I said could you give her something first, please? [00:04:00] So what had happened was my vet had said, go now. And I said don’t I need an appointment? They usually close between two and five. Aline: I said no. They know you are coming. And I said who is it? Is it somebody you know that I know? Yes, they’re gonna be there. And what transpired was when I arrived, one of the assistants had a go at me because she’d been trying to call me to say, don’t come. Because such and such a person won’t be there. Aline: However, I can now see this other person who I’ve never met before who did not have, and I don’t wanna go into judge mode. I was, I, yeah, it happened how it happened. And so this person is saying to me before we give her anything, it’s better to see what’s going on. I said, can you not just give her something like vitamins or something or, because my vet had said, just get her on a drip and she’ll be fine. Aline: That’s what my vet had said to me. So I had this going, I had this monologue going on and I [00:05:00] kept saying, and because it was in Spanish, I live in Spain. I’m I’m very understood with my Spanish. They just don’t, when you are in a situation like that, and none of my family were here. I was just on my own with my baby girl. Aline: And there was nobody that I knew. There was the lady who had been there when we’d been there two days ago for just a normal procedure, which I will always be going. Why did we do that? And I said to her if I’m not allowed to come for this blood test, ’cause I said, I want to be with her she’ll need me there. Aline: I’m her home. Yeah. And he wouldn’t let me go in there with the blood test. I said to the woman who had a go at me when I arrived because she was there before, I said, can you just please be with her? At least she knows you. So she when she came back, ’cause I had to go move the car as well, which was like, oh my, I parked in a disabled space. Aline: I had to go move the car. I can’t. So I was running around anyway, so I came back and she was just very quiet in her basket. [00:06:00] So I put the healing music on. I was sending her energy. She was traumatized. So then he came back with the results and they weren’t great. And I said I don’t want to do it here. Aline: It’s really important that she’s at home with her family, her for family, so they can understand. And I still had this thing going through from my vet saying drip. And I said let’s give her a drip beforehand before we go. And that didn’t go very well anyway. I dunno why I’m talking about this ’cause it’s awful. Aline: So that didn’t go very well. And then I was on the phone to various family members saying because he was saying, this is it basically. That’s what the results have come back with. And me being me on that. Actually no, because if I can get you back in the house and I can do some healing with you, la, la all of this. Aline: Yeah, I know I can help you. I know I can heal you. I know, I’ve done it loads of times. We’ve been here before. And she started with what I now know is called the death rattle. And it was because this [00:07:00] drip was going in her and it was horrendous. It was awful because I’ve never seen her like that. Aline: And it would be forever did I do the right thing? Because she could have just passed in her sleep next to her mom on my bed. I don’t know. And then I was like actually it couldn’t have happened any other way. We’ve had some kind of agreement, some kind of contract. Because I said to her we had a conversation and I said you’re here until 19, meaning 19 years old. Aline: Yes. And she’s yeah, we, I’m here until 19. And she passed on the 18th of September and she was collected on the 19th. ’cause I had her overnight. That was the other thing the vet tried to tell me I couldn’t take her. Said, this is illegal. I said, I don’t care. She’s coming with me. I’m not leaving her here. Aline: So as she’s passed and I’m singing to her, he’s standing there with a stethoscope waiting to see if the, the injections. And I said, could you please just give me a few minutes? [00:08:00] Yeah. And then I also said to him, I may look very strong and very like this at the moment. I said, I’m on the floor. Aline: I said, I have to drive back and I have to keep myself together. Everybody else who knows me that’s not here will understand this. And he finally got it. I don’t know why I’m talking about this. Gissele: now went through the same feelings that I so resonated with what you were saying. my Velcro dog. he had health issues ’cause he, we adopted him from the pound and he had so many issues and I was constantly dealing with his issues. And and I’m sure I caused some of myself in terms of being that helicopter parent, not with my kids, but with my dog, which is interesting. Gissele: ‘Cause my kids wouldn’t allow that. And when he passed, so he died of a seizure disorder. Like he, he got really bad seizures and he would snap out of them, but it was horrific. It like see him thrashing about, he was on medication and we were monitoring it. Gissele: We felt an extraordinary amount of guilt. I started thinking about [00:09:00] all the things that I could have done better , like it’s funny how we do that to ourselves. Like even the last day on the day, he was like whining to go outside and I was like, oh, I’ll take you outside in a minute. ’cause I was distracted about something. Gissele: And then soon after he had a seizure on his bed, Maybe if I had taken him out, maybe he had some toxins and he couldn’t. And it’s just, it’s amazing how you make yourself crazy. You internalize it, you blame yourself. Because it’s just so unconditionally loving and it can’t speak to you in the same way. Gissele: And I felt so bad for a little while and I allowed myself to sit with those feelings. But it does not feel great. And I realize now having not had ’em for a year and it was difficult because there’s so many habits you create. So when I would get home, I’d be like, oh, I gotta take bear now. Oh wait, there’s no bear to take out. Gissele: I’m slowly [00:10:00] realizing all the gifts he gave me the gift of unconditional love, the gift of awareness, and I realize now couldn’t have left any other way. Gissele: it would’ve been like so drawn out and so difficult for me. He just, he had to go that way. Gissele: It could not have been any other way. And in fact, the last seizure didn’t stop. We had to take him and I was desperately like you trying to call vets and somebody who would find, ’cause it was after hours. we had a vet who was like a traveling v she was amazing, but the seizure itself became way too much for her to manage. Gissele: She didn’t just have that experience. So we ended up having to go somewhere else. And we had to take him somewhere to put him down. And I was like, you, I was hysterical. Like hysterical. Because there’s another people there with their dog and I think their dog was having some sort of procedure. Gissele: And you hear me be hysterical. We’re talking hysterical. I’m like a spectacle myself about my dog. And I’m like, don’t put my dog down. And I’m like, and those people are like, oh my God, what’s happening here? ’cause they’re waiting for their dog. And their dog seems to be out. Guess they’re doing something to it. Gissele: I don’t know. Aline: Oh [00:11:00] yeah. Aline: Sorry Aline: about that. Yeah. Gissele: Yeah. Thank you. And I appreciate that. So that’s why I was really resonating with you story. They let us take our dog home, like in terms of we could bury it in our dog in a backyard. And that’s what we did. Gissele: Is that different where you’re, Aline: well, Gissele: you’re not allowed to Aline: do that. I think. Without, and I’m not casting aspersions ’cause I’ve spoken about this with my super vet afterwards. And he was just like, no, Aline, because the, these, this other vet just call him the other vet. Gissele: Yeah. Aline: That’s seconds afterwards because I was saying, okay, I am going now. Aline: And he said you can’t take her. And I said, and my whole family like, yeah, I bet that went down well. And I said I’m taking her. And he said it’s illegal if you get stopped by the police, you’ll get a fine. And I was like, who is gonna stop me? Really like a random, anyway, so it was just one of those moments because I’m a, I am a huge believer in, we create how we feel, we create what’s happening around us. Aline: And [00:12:00] my frustration, and I completely resonate with what you are saying as well, so much my frustration was. If I had just listened, if I had just taken a breath and not jumped on the bandwagon of fear of my super vet and said, okay, maybe we wait and get her to the vet this afternoon. And then I’ve also felt into it and it’s what happens if she started showing signs in the house and I couldn’t help her, and there was nothing that I could do. Aline: So I am at the stage of it couldn’t have happened any other way. I am there. So thank you for saying that. I am there now. I just feel, because she arrived home yesterday forever. And this is my first recording without her on my lap. Yeah. Or near me cranky. It’s, here I go again. And what, and as I was saying to you before, what has been so beautiful with my family member, she said to me, Aline, I cried for a year. Aline: I [00:13:00] said, good luck. She said, I cried every day for a year. And there was a, an association that she went to, there was a singing group that she went to and nobody said anything. And there was a, the chap came up to her after a year and said, and he’d never really, didn’t, really wasn’t one to talk and chat and, and he just said, you are better after a year. Aline: He said, you are better. Aline: And I just thought that was so moving that he saw. my family member was in. So much pain, was very different, was very withdrawn and just noticed and didn’t say, are you all right? Can I do anything? Just left her to be in her space. And then as she was better. Aline: He let her know. And I just thought that was so gorgeous. Yeah. And also it’s allowed me, there’s a certain family member that couldn’t talk to me for two days ’cause they were so upset to see me this way and, British stiff [00:14:00] upper lip. Gissele: Yeah. Aline: Masculine that kind of thing. What it did allow me to do, I do feel it brought our family a little bit closer together because we all shared moments that we haven’t shared before. Aline: And I was diagnosed with central sensitivity syndrome about nine years now. And when I was younger I used to cry quite a lot. Anyway, it’s part of being an empath, I now know and guide others in that respect. And I remember when I was diagnosed with a central of sensitivity syndrome, I was like, you’re gonna you’re gonna feel, it’s like I already do. Aline: So it was labeling what, was there something you already experiencing now? Yeah. And I remember, ’cause I was very teary. I had an accident nine years ago and my whole life changed basically. And I remember this particular family member going what’s wrong? Why are you crying? Aline: I said there doesn’t need to [00:15:00] be anything wrong. I just, sometimes I’m gonna be like this because everything is heightened even more than it was before. Gissele: Yeah. Aline: And so Gissele: I can totally relate to that. Aline: Yeah. And I got to a point where, okay, I can’t really cry in front of anybody ’cause I don’t want anyone to feel that something’s wrong with me and I have just been crying. Aline: Let’s just put it that way. Gissele: Yeah. Aline: And as I said with the, with one of my family members, we’ve never cried together. We were on the phone for an hour and a half crying together and sharing, and she was sharing with me. And and I understand for some people this beautiful image that I’m seeing just out, out the door at the moment where and I understand for some people it’s like, why are you sharing your grief on, on Facebook? Aline: Or on Instagram or because at the beginning, yes, it was very private. One of my best friends was with me when the vet came in the [00:16:00] morning. The next morning. ’cause I, I did a little Egyptian send off for her. And those photographs won’t be shared. And my friend also, she took photographs of me holding my girl and bawling my eyes out because I held her for two and a half hours, I would say whilst my friend was there. Aline: ’cause I felt, ’cause I, she was so bored, she arrived and I had the door closed and I said, just to let you know, Cleo is my beautiful girl’s name. Cleo is here. And I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable that I don’t feel uncomfortable at all. I think it’s beautiful. So it was it, she just held me, she allowed me to be in my space. I went into my medicine wheel with Cleo. I was crying my eyes out. I was singing to her. And I think possibly at that moment I was in shock because it happened so suddenly and it was all a little bit dramatic. And then it’s and you’ll, I’m sure you’ll resonate with this. Aline: You will. You’ve already said it’s habits, She would jump from [00:17:00] each side in the morning to wake me up, I didn’t need an alarm clock. Yeah. It’s all of that. Gissele: Yeah, Aline: thank you for allowing me to share and holding this beautiful space. I didn’t expect to come on and cry my eyes out. Gissele: I wanted to talk about grief Yeah. And how uncomfortable we are with it. It’s amazing how, and I know cultures take diff grief differently, but we seem to believe that there’s a time limit on grief when the truth of the matter is, it’s a journey and it’s a journey that takes people, different time, different space, whatever needs to happen. Gissele: I’m still working on myself, right? Like my self-love, my self-compassion, all of those things. And nobody says, Hey, you should be compassionate by now for yourself, right? Aline: Yeah. Gissele: But we kinda have this misconception about grief, that it needs to be about grief, that it needs to be brief, but that it needs to not be seen. Gissele: Yeah. What are some of the messages you had received about grief growing up? Aline: Grief growing [00:18:00] up? Aline: there was a family member who passed on my eighth birthday and a family member went away to had to leave and come back for my birthday. We were on holiday in Spain and my family member had to go away and then return. And you wouldn’t have known, you wouldn’t have known there was no sitting down and discussing it. Aline: My our furry family they were there again up until in, in my teens. And I think, yeah, so I was never really, grief was never really explained. And I believe that grief can be in so many ways as well. It is, when you know, and this is what I help people with as sensitive people, when we finally realize our sensitivity is a gift and we start taking off the masks of people pleasing and performing, it’s actually this is who I really am. Aline: There can be grief for the old us, and. [00:19:00] That’s quite a diff difficult one to explain because people can think why on earth are you so upset about that? It’s allowing people the space to have whatever they need, and it’s like I mentioned before about, try to be in a no judgment zone about that vet. Aline: I’m working on that. Yeah. Gissele: Yeah. it’s recent, right? Like Aline: Yeah. Gissele: It’s interesting and I love what you said because we have so many judgments about how we should feel or not feel and the timing of how we should feel it. But the truth of matter is the more we allow our feelings to be there and allow ourselves to feel the feelings, the quicker they pass. Gissele: and it’s not that they have to be quick, but just they have less reason to linger on for such a long time. Yeah. But grieving in isolation is so lonely and it’s so difficult. Whereas when you can come together to grieve together to celebrate together, [00:20:00] I think that helps grief feel a little bit lighter. Gissele: Like you said that you the grief of losing Cleo led you to have closer moments with your family. What a gift. Aline: Yes. Gissele: What an opportunity to be able to talk about maybe shared experiences that hadn’t happened and how this particular negative experience or difficult experience came a vehicle for a closeness and a gathering of people in your life. Gissele: And I often don’t think that we think of grief that way. I can’t think of a time, and it could be that I’m misremembering. I can’t think of a time where my family, I mean we have grieved together, but it was like, do you ever feel like it was a whole bunch of individuals in the same room? Aline: Yeah. Gissele: Right. Gissele: So it’s I think there was support for one another, and yet the same time, maybe it was me, I just felt [00:21:00] like I was an individual grieving in a group and not grieving together. But I have had family come together for grieving. I just don’t remember feeling and maybe this is me judging, even judging that experience. Gissele: Maybe it was just the fact that I didn’t feel supported or, so it could just be that. But grief is an interesting one. It’s one we don’t like to experience, right? I have made this mistake. And so like asking people, are you gonna get another dog soon? Are you gonna get another pet suit? Gissele: Because I didn’t know how to manage those difficult feelings until it happened to me. And I was like, don’t even ask me about another pet. I’m Aline: gonna kill you. Yeah. Because Gissele: I can’t even think of another pet. Like when people say to me, oh, do you want another dog? And I know my kids want another dog. Gissele: I want my dog. Aline: Yes. Yeah. Gissele: I miss the being that I, I lost and that’s what I was [00:22:00] grieving those moments that I had, the moments where he would lie down and I would look at him and be like, oh, you’re just so beautiful and perfect. and he was such a mild manner dog. Gissele: Like he, he was like, he was just such a old soul. he didn’t get bothered by things. Yeah. He was a bit whiny and that’s like the doberman in him. But I just remember. How much joy he brought me. And so he taught me about joy and unconditional love. And yeah. So for me, but we do that. Gissele: ’cause I’ve done it. I’m being vulnerable. I’m admitting I’ve like, when people are like, oh, they lost a dog or a pet or whatever, and I’m like, oh, are you gonna get another one? Because you don’t know what to say. You don’t know. You’re so uncomfortable, you don’t know what to say until you’re there. Gissele: Then you’re like, yeah, don’t say that. Aline: Yeah. Mark that one off. I am, I’m very lucky in, in the sense that I have beautiful other furry members around me. It’s not Cleo. [00:23:00] And actually one, one of my family members said, she said, you are gonna grieve Cleo like a person. And I didn’t respond to that because I’m grieving Cleo like the beautiful being that she is. Aline: Yeah. And it’s really interesting you’re saying about. You felt that you were grieving individually because everybody has their own way, don’t they? Everybody has their own process. And it was interesting for me was I had pain in my shoulder and my go going all the way down my arm for three weeks before she passed. Aline: And it was if, as if it was as if, ’cause that’s the heart area and couldn’t work out what was going on. It was as if my body was already preparing for what was happening. Oh, wow. And I couldn’t move or do anything. And luckily I’d already made the decision that for July and August and and it turned out September, I was sharing previous podcasts from a couple of years ago. Aline: So I didn’t, I had all that organized in advance, [00:24:00] obviously no such thing as coincidence, as a synchronicity. So I had this whole pain going through me and then. It wasn’t until after a couple of days I was that, oh, after she passed, I was like, oh, okay, so you’re giving me that pain to get me ready for the real pain going on in there. Aline: And just talking about the group grieving, it was when my a family member, again, don’t want to be too personal. A family member passed and because of what had happened when I was younger and I hadn’t seen any reaction from this family member about their family member passing, I was on holiday with with a, an ex-boyfriend. Aline: That’s another story for another time. And I got the news and it was okay, we need to get a flight. We need to get back. And because I had not because I had been there, I just expected that partner would come with [00:25:00] me. And they didn’t. Aline: And when I arrived I was feeling, because I had been bawling my eyes out and this person, this ex partner who I was with could not deal with it, could not deal with it at all. No way. I mean it, ’cause it was two days and then before I could go back, before I could get on the flight and I was just crying, crying, cry. Aline: Because as empaths, even on the phone, even, just energetically with our family, we just sponge everything in. Gissele: Yeah. Aline: I was, I was feeling what I was feeling. Absolutely. And so when I arrived to the place to go, where this family member’s house had been, I expected everybody to be stiff up a lip and not crying. Aline: And actually it was really beautiful because another family member had said to me, I’ve never seen them cry when I was eight they didn’t say to me when I was eight, it was years ago. ’cause I was saying, what happened? I have no real recollection of it. And they had also been, [00:26:00] they had also been away. Aline: They were in Spain, they were on holiday in Spain. And what had happened that night, one of my family members Gissele: They were out for dinner and one of my family members , started feeling really edgy and they were in an andthe, which is where I am now. Aline: And there’s a magic about, and lu it’s on incredible lay lines. There’s a lot of magic going on here. Yeah, Gissele: yeah. You Aline: know, there’s a lot. And they were driving back and there was a dog in the road and they stopped. And then this dog, the way they both explained it is this dog was like a big kind of greyhound, not really Greyhound, that had my grandfather’s eyes was trying to get in the car. Aline: Oh, wow. Yeah. It was trying to get in the car and it was like a sil, more like a silhouette trying to get in the car. And then there wasn’t anything there. And one of my family members, saw this and they, wow. Yeah. So they are a lot more [00:27:00] accepting of. Who I am, not that it matters, they are a lot more accepting of who I am now. Aline: They’ve experienced various things. Gissele: Yeah. Aline: And it was just really beautiful. And so they’re talking about this, and then what happened? They got back to their hotel and there was a phone call and it was the news. And so one of my family members, had been really like anxious and antsy saying she wanted to get outta the car before the dog arrived. Aline: And it was obviously that, that passing time. Gissele: Yeah. Aline: And so when I arrived, I’m just gonna say, when I arrived in Scotland from Cyprus and that’s, like I said, we were all in different places. My grandpa’s okay, yeah, I’m gonna go now. ’cause he was a complete joker. He was, he when they were younger, they they would play tricks on the tax man. Aline: He would get things like get a sign on there and say kick me for, I have sinned. But it was a complete joker. That’s, and so it was, he was gonna go when we were [00:28:00] all in different places. He was always playing practical jokes. One of the things he did to my grand, which is an absolute I love this story, was they were gonna move, pull up the patio. Aline: And my gran lifted up a slab and there was a five pound nose center. It. She’s oh my God, look at this as a five pound no. Oh my God. And she lifted up all the, all of the slabs. And my grans was absolutely falling about laughing. Gissele: That’s one way to get somebody to know the Aline: work. There’s gonna be loads more underneath. Aline: And then another thing that he did was he switched the just silly things. He switched the hoover off from upstairs when she was hoovering. Gissele: And Aline: then she went to check it and then it didn’t work, and then it started working. So he was switching on and off, taking the plug on an net. And so then at one point she’s doing, trying to quickly get the hoing done before the, anyway, I dunno why I’m sharing. Aline: It’s just fun. It’s just, silly thing. So he was a complete joker. And then for him to turn up as a dog with the [00:29:00] eyes. And then as I said, when I arrived at his house and I expected everybody to just be my, my closest family. Yes. Stoic. Aline: And they weren’t. And ’cause I, and I said, I actually said to one of my family members, , I said I thought you said you’d never seen one of my family members, cry before. Aline: And you said, oh no, she’s been crying. And I was like, brilliant. Great. Yeah. And I, I don’t know if it’s because, we’re all going a bit more towards the divine feminine or it’s because they were, ’cause they were in. When the situation happened when I was eight, they would’ve been in their mid thirties. Aline: So whether it’s with experience, it’s like I don’t give a monkeys what anybody thinks. I’m just gonna do what I need to do. It might have been that not, trying to keep up the Joneses and show that we’re all absolutely fine and wonderful. Sorry, I keep looking out the window ’cause there’s lots going on out there. Aline: That’s alright. And yeah, so I think that was very beautiful. And even then I felt guilty [00:30:00] as well because I hadn’t seen my grandfather for so long and I thought can I grieve? Is that okay for me to be because I’ve spoken to him, but I haven’t actually been in his presence for about a year. Aline: Is that all right for me? Even then it’s like you are, as you said before, there’s like these, almost like these terms and conditions that we put upon ourselves because we are worried what other people would think of us. And actually nobody cares because they’re all just dealing with what they’re trying to deal with Gissele: themselves. Gissele: Yeah. Yeah. I love what you said. It’s interesting. I was thinking about, many of our ancestors, the people in from our history we dealt with really difficult things like war and, like famine and all of these things. And many of them did not know how to hold space for their difficult feelings. Gissele: They weren’t taught that. They were taught to suppress that. And that’s passed on. And so many parents needed their children to control their behaviors [00:31:00] so that the parents could feel okay because they couldn’t hold it. Yeah. And so I think of my father, I’d never seen my father cry, like throughout growing up, never seen it. Gissele: The only time I remember seeing my father cry was when my grandmother died. His mom, right? And so to watch your dad cry is disconcerting when you have never seen him cry, really. But it also made me really reflect on what a disservice we do to each other in not enabling us to have the various emotions that we come equipped with. Gissele: We have tear ducts because we’re supposed to cry, we’re supposed to release that. It’s a cleansing, it’s a release. But to feel like you have to hold all of that pain, all of that sadness, all of those experiences because it’s not allowed or you feel you’re gonna get judged, really does harm us and the level to which we dehumanize ourselves or prevent ourselves from feeling those emotions is the extent to which we allow other people to [00:32:00] express those emotions as well, right? Aline: Yeah. Completely. Gissele: Yeah. Aline: And I, because I mentioned before there was a certain family member.who couldn’t see me cry because he was of floods, of tears. Gissele: I asked him one day, I said I said, do you don’t really like Cleo, do you? He said, I don’t think she likes me. And I said you let them all the others sit on your lap, but not her. And said, yeah, but she digs her claws in. And so his reaction, I was so surprised by his reaction, bless him. Aline: He was devastated. Absolutely devastated. And he couldn’t speak to me for two days because all I was doing was crying. He hated to see me like that. Gissele: Yeah. Aline: I’ve had to look at my history as I’m growing and evolving and I used to have such a resentment for my ancestors. I did, I resented all the trauma, all the drama, all of the issues, all the negative conditioning and all the things that I felt had been passed down. Gissele: But when I was able to [00:33:00] release that and forgive that I was able to bear witness. But how much. They had to endure in their strength and their extraordinary ability to overcome and not either, the fact that I’m here is because they kept moving forward. And so their ability and their wisdom and their trying their best I think it’s something that enabled me to free myself from that resentment, from that lack of forgiveness, from that, seeing it only one sided as these are very negative things, Gissele: Like we’re so good at talking about intergenerational trauma, and it is real, it is true, but we don’t talk about intergenerational resiliency, intergenerational compassion, intergenerational love that’s still there, even in its own way. And if it’s, and it’s messy, it doesn’t show up perfect. It doesn’t show up the way we want it to, but there was a willingness to overcome, to survive, to make it too. Gissele: And when I acknowledge [00:34:00] that, I felt lighter. I felt oh, there’s space now. There’s space to create, there’s space now where I can rely on those ancestors in their history to help me be strong, move forward in a more positive way Aline: as you were speaking, something just came through and it reminded me I was in a kind of group medium session and a family member came through an ancestor and said, you are very similar to me. You have so many more opportunities. And that’s just that, it was that feeling of just, being reminded of that is that they were the witch in the kitchen and, yeah. Aline: And so So thank you for sharing. Gissele: Yeah. Aline: Beautiful. because as an example, on one side one of my family members had PTSD from the war. Aline: And so it was violent and it was never, it would never have been diagnosed. So the effect on everybody [00:35:00] else so Gissele: many people after the world weren’t supported. They weren’t supported with mental health. They weren’t, they were just brought back. And so none of those people knew how to emotionally regulate themselves or teach their children how to. Gissele: And yes, many of them drank. Many of them are violent. Yeah. Many of the women in my family were so strong, they were like super, super strong, but the fault they had to be. And I always admired that. But I didn’t realize until very recently how much admiration I had, even for the males in our family and what they went through and how they were just doing the best they could. Gissele: Even though it seemed like they might’ve been the pivot point of why the women suffered, like they also had a will to survive, to live, to move forward. Doing the best they thought they were doing at the time was a very clear message that it came through, which for me, which was, I thought I was doing it right. Gissele: I thought I was doing something [00:36:00] better than the generation before. I thought I was helping, I thought I was trying to make people stronger, better, make better decisions. But, it’s easy to judge. But when you’re able to see that with the eyes, kindness, and love. I think you realize that there’s such extraordinary strength. Aline: Yeah. Incredibly. And it’s really beautiful what you’re talking about as well, because recently a family member has opened up to me, we just sat at the table one day a little bit about their childhood and they’ve never ever have mentioned that. And another family member just kinda went, oh, you are all right now. Aline: And it was just really interesting. So I encouraged that family member to continue. Gissele: Yeah. Aline: And they did continue. And it was, it’s like you were saying before about, when we suppressed so much, it’s just not good for us. And I’m not saying that we need to be all, gloom and doom all the time. Aline: The worst thing in my opinion, that we can be is [00:37:00] Pollyanna. I’m fine. Everything’s wonderful. Rainbows. Unicorns, absolutely fabulous. That’s a mask. So I felt it was really beautiful of this family member to talk about there first childhood experience that they remember when they were three. Aline: And it was, yeah, powerful. And it was I won’t share it. You can imagine. And yeah. That was their first childhood memory, and it was so beautiful. It was such a beautiful moment. And I’ve, it just reminded me actually, because I’d cooked lunch that day and when I have beautiful heater music from my mentors, and when I’m cooking lunch, I’m putting love in there and it’s, all good things. Aline: I’m vegan as well, so it’s all, it’s all yumminess. And oftentimes when they have my food, I just thought, again, it’s not about me, it was about, the spirits around me and helping me and possibly this person, who’s my ancestor, who was a, basically a kitchen [00:38:00] witch. Aline: And yeah, and then this person, it just allowed them to open up. I’m just looking over here ’cause here’s one of my cats. Hi tea. Is he coming to say hello? Do you wanna Gissele: say, I was thinking of that movie shock a lot. The power of chocolate. Yeah. And the impact I think your, the other person’s reaction of you are right now it’s people’s inability to be able to hold space for difficult conversations. Gissele: And we can’t blame them. We really haven’t been taught how to have difficult conversations, how to emotionally regulate those emotions. Yeah. They’re like, stop it. Don’t do that. Like even in the school system, like the kids aren’t just taught how to manage and this is why we have such a cancel culture. Gissele: It’s like that you say something that I don’t like and therefore I’m just gonna shut you down. It’s the inability to hold that space. And so the willingness has to come from a willingness to sit in the uncomfortable. And that’s where. Going back to the whole issue of grief. Grief [00:39:00] is so uncomfortable. Gissele: You never, you don’t know when it’s gonna end. It feels terrible in the moment, but at the same time, there’s so many gifts that come from sitting and allowing that grief to be there. Aline: Yes. Gissele: And it also helps you relate to other people’s journeys as well, the more you do that with yourself. Yeah. Yeah. Aline: Beautiful. One of the things that I have been doing, so if anybody’s listening I’m sure they, they know how to this anyway, is sometimes when it starts to take over, the tears and the grief and the missing, I just take a breath and I remember her lying, her energy lying across me and that just brings me back and, I under, and it reminds me that she chose to be here and, and reminds me that. Aline: There’s only, was it two things? Certain in life of death and taxes? [00:40:00] Gissele: Yeah. You Aline: know, and it’s, it was her time and that’s why I wrote the poem and I shared the poem, crying my eyes out. So there, is beauty in sharing. And when I shared the poem, I was like, what are people gonna think? Aline: for the day after I’d put it up there, I’m gonna delete it, I’m gonna delete it. It’s don’t delete it Ali. Try not to delete it. And I didn’t. And because she’s so much part of everything, there, there’s photographs of me with her everywhere. And even on, even when I’m like creating little posts, I suppose there’s, with a beautiful pink and gold that are my colors for everything. Aline: And there’s a white silhouette of a cat. That’s her, she’s in everything. She’s helped so many people. She’s helped so many people. So it felt so right. Even though it felt so uncomfortable Yeah. To read that poem. At the time I was in the medicine wheel, I said, we are really gonna do this. Aline: Yes, we’re gonna do this. [00:41:00] So somebody was watching me live and didn’t comment and that’s okay. It was probably too much for them, and then didn’t say anything. And I just thought, that’s fine. And then in the next couple of days, I suppose again, because we create how we are feeling, I kept seeing posts everywhere of people losing their furry babies. Aline: It’s eclipsed season. I said, oh my God, am we’re in a year nine as well. So I’m not saying everybody’s listening here beginnings. Yeah. That’s gonna happen. It’s just beautiful endings. It’s beautiful closings and. And that felt a beautiful way to honor her and close her chapter. So you know what you are saying about when you are, when we are sharing, it’s honoring as well. Aline: Yeah. It’s honoring them. It, it really is. Yeah. Yeah. Beautiful. Gissele: And I think the more that you, we share, and I think the reason why you were guided to share is because we’re taught to be so inauthentic. Yeah. We’re taught to be so controlled, protected, like you [00:42:00] go back to vulnerability, moments of vulnerability reminds us that we’re human Gissele: that sometimes we feel vulnerable . And being vulnerable is not the same as feeling vulnerable . We can feel vulnerable and act protected, but being vulnerable is a willingness to share your humanity. A willingness to open up your heart and say, I’m grieving, I’m struggling. I am. Gissele: I, I don’t feel seen or heard. Maybe I don’t feel worthy of being loved. I’m struggling with a bunch whatever you want to share. There are people that are going through that same thing that because nobody wants to share, feel very alone. They feel alone in their grief. They feel alone in their vulnerability. Gissele: But the more you’re willing to share that there is power in grief, there’s power in vulnerability, and being able to share that connects to one another, I don’t think you can have close relationships unless you’re willing to be vulnerable with one another . Gissele: Absolutely. Aline: A [00:43:00] million percent. Yes. Gissele: Exactly. Yeah. So if it’s just for show, then you can’t ever really get to the depth. Even if it means some level of conflict. You have to be willing to be authentically yourself to share your vulnerability and be okay with that in order to have that closeness. Gissele: I don’t think you can have it without being willing to go there. I think otherwise you’re just protecting yourself against the world Aline: I completely agree. It’s masks, isn’t it? That societal mask of I’m fine. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. And I was pushed to share because one of the things I talk about so much is be honest and real and accept your shadows and accept your emotions and accept your vulnerability. Aline: So it felt that bit like, I suppose walking my talk, but that sounds like a little bit too, you know what I Gissele: mean? Aline: Yeah, Gissele: I do. Aline: It’s I encourage people to be really honest and raw and open because that’s, it’s so important that everything that’s being pushed down [00:44:00] has a gentle embrace as it’s coming up. Aline: And I just thought yeah, I have I have watched it back a couple of times and I’ve cried a couple of times, and then now I can watch it and go. Actually that was really beautiful because Cleo was there with me. I was in the medicine wheel. There’s a gorgeous tree in the garden called The Tree of Love that naturally has a heart carved in by nature. Gissele: Oh, beautiful. Aline: And that’s, yeah, that’s where some of her ashes will be. And then wherever I go, because she traveled everywhere with me, the, yeah. Our last trip was where I drove to France with her. And we were walking in the vineyards together, remembering those beautiful times. Aline: And so what was really interesting is after I had read the poem and cried, it was the most grounded I’d felt and the most tired. And I was like, I can sleep now. So there is power in sharing. There’s real power in sharing. And like you said about being authentic. It [00:45:00] was authentic, raw. This is really what’s going on, rather than not mentioning it. Aline: Yeah, absolutely. Gissele: Yeah, absolutely. I was thinking as you were talking, don’t they have those things where you can use ashes to create a diamond? Have you heard of that? Aline: Oh, I have heard of that actually. That’s Aline: that’s gonna be my research for the Gissele: next few Aline: days Gissele: now. Yeah, for sure. For sure. Gorgeous. So just have a few more questions. Gissele: Sure. I’m switching things up. What’s your definition of self-love? Aline: Wow. That’s a biggie. So my definition of self-love. Is loving every single aspect of yourself is accepting who you are. Shadows an all tempers, an all mood swings, an all Aline: Accepting your body, being thankful for your body. ‘Cause it’s an incredible [00:46:00] machine. And exactly as you’ve said before is sharing who we really are with people and allowing people to see different sides of us and forgiving ourselves for what we think we’ve done and what we think we haven’t done. Aline: That’s a big one. And, we are all working on it. it’s a daily thing. Because, so however, many years ago you could hear someone, oh she loves herself, or he loves himself, or they love themselves good. Bloody marvelous. What’s wrong with that? Gissele: Yeah. We have this misconception about it being selfish or narcissistic, which is not true. Aline: Yeah. And it’s good to be selfish because before we can help anybody else, we need to be in a space that we can help other people that you know, so yeah. Gissele: That we can have love Aline: for my, yeah. Sorry, I didn’t quite hear that ’cause I think I was talking over you. Sorry. Gissele: Oh no, I was just gonna say before we can have love for others, right? Aline: Yes. Yeah. Completely. Completely. And I [00:47:00] remember years ago interesting you said about the vulnerability with the re relationships. It was, let’s just say it was toxic. Let’s just give it the name. Yeah. It was obviously an experience that I asked for. I learned a lot. And I was being vulnerable. I was just, I was having a moment and I just said, I don’t feel like I can really love myself at the moment because of whatever my size was, or dah. And this person, a genius narcissist, just turned around and said how can I love you then? Gissele: Wow. Aline: Yeah. So it was really interesting that when you were talking about, you feel like a relationship is about being vulnerable, et cetera, with the best people. Aline: And I would say self-love also is making sure that you are surrounded by people who absolutely have got you in any situation, and you equally have them. Aline: You are showing up and you are allowing people to see you exactly as you [00:48:00] are, and making sure. That you are surrounded with people who are on your vibratory level and this is something I talk about quite a lot is even if you are starting to remember who you are and changes start happening, you’re not changing who you are, you’re remembering who you are. Aline: That you keep those people around you who are championing you on to be your authentic, true self. And then it’s saying thank you to those who are uncomfortable and you’ve had various conversations. It’s saying thank you for being in my life and loving yourself enough to walk away. Gissele: I love that. Final question. Where can people find you? Where can they work with you? Oh, Aline: People can find me. I would just say, just keep it simple. ’cause there’s so many various places where I am. The easiest way to find me is on http://www.alignwithaline.com. And everything is on there. So the podcast is on there. Aline: The [00:49:00] how to work with me, mentoring, coaching sessions, one-to-one sessions and also my self-healing journeys and self-healing courses are on there. It’s all there. Gissele: Beautiful. Beautiful. Aline: And if people would like to just get in touch with me personally and I do mean this, they can email me directly atLove@alignwitharlene.com as well. Gissele: Beautiful, beautiful. Thank you so much for being on the show. So appreciated. And thank you everyone who tuned in for another episode of The Loving Compassion Podcast with Gissele.

This week, Petrendologist Charlotte Reed speaks with the 150th Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show BIS Judge David Fitzpatrick and Handler Andy Linton of the BIS dog, Penny, the Doberman.

“Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear. If we are afraid, it is for fear of punishment, and this shows that we have not fully experienced his perfect love. We love each other because he loved us first.” (1 John 4:18–19 NLT) I heard a story about a thief who broke into a house. He was looking around in the dark with his flashlight when he heard a voice say, “Jesus is watching you!” The thief nearly jumped out of his skin. He wondered, “Where did that voice come from?” Again, he heard it. “Jesus is watching you!” Now the thief was terrified. He followed the sound of the voice with his flashlight and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw a parrot on a perch, who once again said, “Jesus is watching you!” The thief laughed. Then he looked down, and at the foot of the parrot’s perch was a very large Doberman pinscher, baring his teeth. The parrot looked down at the Doberman and said, “Sic ’em, Jesus.” That’s a joke, of course. But there are people who believe that the Lord is out to get them or, at the very least, that He is against them. It’s a lie, a common strategy of our spiritual enemy. Jesus said, “For you are the children of your father the devil, and you love to do the evil things he does. He was a murderer from the beginning. He has always hated the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, it is consistent with his character; for he is a liar and the father of lies” (John 8:44 NLT). The suggestion that God is against us is an especially brazen lie—one intended to persuade people to keep their distance from the Lord. It’s brazen because it contradicts one of the most important truths of Scripture. “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16 NLT). “But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners” (Romans 5:8 NLT). “This is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins” (1 John 4:10 NLT). “Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear. If we are afraid, it is for fear of punishment, and this shows that we have not fully experienced his perfect love. We love each other because he loved us first” (1 John 4:18–19 NLT). Why would the Lord show such love and sacrifice so much if He were against us? Many Christians refer to their conversion as “the day I found the Lord.” But that’s not quite accurate. The truth is, He wasn’t lost—we were. Certainly, one day we discovered a God who loved us. But God found us before we found Him. He chose us before we chose Him. Jesus sought us out as a shepherd looks for a lost sheep. The truth is, no one is more for us than the Lord. Reflection question: How can you keep from believing that God is against you?

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITHeadlines scream about hair, politics, and prizewinning dogs—but the real story is what these obsessions say about us. We kick off with South Korea's push to treat hair loss as a national survival issue and ask why appearance is carrying so much social weight. There's candor about alopecia, the limits of current treatments, and the trap of turning insecurity into an industry. One of us shares what it felt like to shave her head, keep the lashes, and keep her life—less performance, more peace. Acceptance isn't apathy; it's the freedom to opt in or out without fear.From personal choice to public duty, we pivot to a New York City storm response mired in optics. A mayor hunting for the right branded jacket while people die in the cold is more than bad taste—it's a failure of priorities. We unpack how image management corrodes trust and why leadership has to show up with clarity, empathy, and action. The contrast with beauty pressures is sharp: when individuals are shamed into conformity, power should relieve the burden, not mirror it.Then comes a palate cleanser: Penny the Doberman takes Best in Show at the 150th Westminster Kennel Club. We revel in the craft, the training, the connection between handler and dog, and the pure joy of a clean performance. That win opens a warm lane to talk about our own favorite breeds, what responsible grooming looks like for allergy-sensitive homes, and how a good trim can bring a dog's spark back to life. It's a reminder that worth isn't a costume and that love doesn't need polish to be seen.If this mix of cultural critique, real-life choices, and dog joy hits home, tap follow, share the episode with a friend, and drop a comment with your favorite breed.

Legendary Handler Andy Linton on Quality, Conditioning and Presentation [caption id="attachment_15022" align="alignleft" width="338"] Andy and Penny shine at the DPCA Top 20.[/caption] Host Laura Reeves sits down one-on-one with legendary professional handler Andy Linton for an in-depth conversation about a lifetime in the sport. From his beginnings as a Southern California teenager more interested in surfing than dog shows, to handling some of the most iconic Best in Show winners in history — including Indy winning BIS at Westminster Kennel Club — Andy shares the experiences, lessons and mindset that shaped his extraordinary career. Andy walks listeners through his early days showing a Doberman in the 1970s, learning the ropes by working for top handlers and absorbing invaluable lessons from mentors like Clay Coady, Tim Brazier, Bob and Jane Forsyth, and others. He reflects on the importance of watching, learning and stealing the best ideas — not just how handlers move dogs, but why certain techniques change balance, expression and overall picture in the ring. For Andy, success has never been accidental. It's the result of dreaming big, setting clear goals and backing those dreams with relentless effort and self-reflection. Central to the conversation is Andy's core philosophy of winning: quality, condition and presentation. He explains why even a modest dog can dramatically improve — or undermine — its chances depending on conditioning and handling, and why exhibitors should focus on improving their own skills rather than blaming judges or competition. Conditioning, Andy emphasizes, isn't about one-size-fits-all roadwork, but tailoring fitness to each dog's structure and needs while keeping them happy, healthy and enthusiastic about their job. The discussion also dives into Andy's trademark quiet hands and free-stacking style, emphasizing trust, simplicity and making the ring feel as relaxed as a dog waiting for a sandwich in the kitchen. He shares practical insight into situational awareness, reading judges, selling a dog's strengths with integrity, and mastering the small details that can make all the difference at high-pressure events like Westminster. Beyond the ring, Andy reflects on his role advising breeding programs, watching generational changes in breeds, and helping create great dogs behind the scenes. He also speaks candidly about mentorship, gratitude, and the dog show community, sharing heartfelt thoughts on kindness, legacy and staying engaged in the sport he loves. This episode is packed with timeless wisdom for breeders, owner-handlers and professionals who want to elevate their dogs — and themselves — in the world of purebred dogs.

Ever walked up to a job and found the pool equipment living inside a freshly finished bedroom? We have—and that's just the start. This story-driven episode shares the funniest, strangest, and most useful moments from decades on the route, each one paired with practical takeaways you can use today.We start with access and liability: a garage converted to a mother-in-law unit, complete with D.E. filter and heater behind a tenant's door. It sparked a frank look at boundaries, ventilation and code concerns, and why a professional sometimes has to walk away. From there we row—literally—into a pool with a center island only reachable by raft, and talk about how design choices create recurring labor costs. We break down builder mistakes that make equipment unserviceable: pipes over pump lids, heaters mounted above baskets, and filters wedged against walls. You'll get a fast bid checklist to catch these issues early, and language you can use to recommend fixes before they become weekly headaches.Then we move to the living, barking variables. Dogs on route can be sweet companions or sprinting escape artists. You'll hear a Doberman sprint, the small-dog chase you never want, and simple rules that prevent escapes and protect your schedule. We also cover pricing when pets use the pool and the quiet grief of losing a familiar yard companion. Finally, we tackle the roadside chaos: a tire punctured by pliers, starters that die mid-route, and the tools that save your day. We share the tap-the-starter trick, why a compact jump pack like a NOCO Boost GB40 belongs in every truck, and how AAA can swap a battery while you keep working.• garage conversion creates unsafe equipment access and liability  • island pool requires raft access and sets service limits  • inaccessible equipment from poor plumbing and tight pads  • practical bid checks to catch design flaws early  • pet policies, dog escapes, grief and pricing for pet use  • roadside chaos, blowouts and the starter tap trick  • jump starter picks, why AAA is worth it  Send us a textSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

Horse Judgements Coming Soon      (audio)      David Eells – 10/5/25 White Horse and Rider Ryan Kwasnica - 05/13/2008 Back in 1997 the Lord gave me a dream. It was nighttime and I saw stars in the sky with beams of light coming down on the heads of people who were coming together in a large gathering. I looked up at the stars in the sky again and I saw a rider on a white horse with a bow in His hand. I knew that this rider on the white horse somehow represented Christ. Then, on September 23, 2004, I had a dream where I heard a voice that said, “Tell My people, 'Get ready, My woe church is coming'. Write the vision down so that My people may run”. I was young in the Lord and was not sure what to make of the first dream, so I put it on the shelf. In October of 2007, a man that I knew, who I saw in my dream died, and I was reminded of this dream again. Then, at the beginning of this year, 2008, I 'stumbled upon' UnleavenedBreadMinistries.org. I began to see that this white horse rider/woe church symbolized the Man-child ministry which is to come. (These are the first fruits to manifest “Christ in You.”)   Apostates War Against the White Horse Nathan Finney - 11/2007 (David's notes in red) I remember emailing David about wanting to receive dreams. David told me he prayed for me to have the dreams, and I did, so I wanted to share that with you. I had this vision on the video screen of my mind about a year ago, but didn't tell anybody until last week. As I thought about it, I thought about the parable of the talents and the wicked servant who hid his talent in the ground and didn't do anything with it. I love David's teachings and love your ministry. I was sitting at my desk while I was under attack and my spirit within me was very heavy. Then I saw and heard the hoofbeats of many crimson horses with armor plating as warhorses charging down a field. The sight made me sigh. Then I saw one white horse turn its head slightly and neigh and this horse was the only one to oppose the crimson warhorses. Then the vision ended. Many apostates will seek to wage war against Jesus in the man-child, the white horse rider of Revelation 6, just as they did in Jesus' time.   Four Horsemen to Ride Soon Below are two confirming dreams that the four tribulation horse judgments are coming soon.   The Four Horses Michael Boldea Jr. - 10/31/2007 (David's notes in red) The following is a dream I had the night of October 29, 2007. If not for the specific instruction to share what I saw, I would have preferred to keep it to myself. I had gone to bed late, having waited for my wife to get home from work. After seeing that she had arrived home safely and saying my prayers, I fell into a restful sleep. I dreamt that I was sleeping when a hand touched my shoulder, and a voice I recognized said, 'Wake up.' In my dream, I opened my eyes, and my breath caught in my throat as I saw who had awakened me. It was the same messenger, the angel I had seen on previous occasions, dressed in full battle armor, standing by the side of my bed. 'Take my hand,' he said, 'I have been sent to show you something.' I barely touched the hand that was extended toward me when my bed and my bedroom evaporated, and I found myself standing before a white, oblong building that looked a lot like a barn or a horse stable. Two large doors made up the front of the structure, and as I looked, they began to swing open. I knew wherever I was, it was not of this earth, because everything shone, everything was white, pristine, immaculate. I also knew that whatever the reason for being shown this was about to be revealed, so I stood in silence, holding the messenger's hand. As soon as the doors were fully open, I saw an angel that looked very much like the one standing beside me, except without the armor, leading a white horse by its reins. The horse was large and muscular, but he followed the angel obediently with its head bent low. The angel's countenance was somber as he led the horse away, and for some reason this registered with great clarity. I looked up to the messenger whose hand I was still holding, but he merely nodded toward the white building and the open doors, and said, 'witness'. Another angel soon appeared in the doorway, holding the reins of a red horse, following after the first. I began to realize what I was seeing, and in silence watched as two more angels appeared, each holding the reins of a horse, one black, one of no discernible color, just pale. All four angels were dressed alike and had the same somber, sorrowful countenance. I stood and watched as all four horses were led out of my sight, and finally when they had disappeared from view, the messenger turned to me and said: “Go and tell what you have seen. The riders prepare, the horses are ready, and soon they will descend, soon they will be loosed. (The four seal judgments opened by Jesus in Rev 6:1-8. The Tribulation starts with the Man-child judge, followed by War, Famine, and Death.) Remember what you have witnessed, and do not hold back a single word. Soon they descend on wings of fury; soon turmoil will shake earth's very foundation. Prepare yourself, for many will fall and few will stand. Fulfillment is at hand; go and speak what you have seen and what you have heard. The Kingdom awaits the righteous, the holy will soon see the Lord.” I only realized I was still holding his hand when he let go of mine, and suddenly I was back in my bed, sitting up, fully awake. I am still unsure whether or not it was a dream, or if 'dream' is the right word for it, but for simplicity's sake, I will call it a dream. I tried to go back to sleep but could not, vividly remembering the sorrowful look on the faces of the angels who were leading the horses out of the stables. It seems the world is seeing what the church is refusing to acknowledge, the fact that we are on the cusp of great upheaval not only in this nation, but also throughout the world. These are the days of which the prophets spoke, the days of which Christ warned, the time of distress, of sifting and of separation. My prayer is that we remember always, our hope is in the Lord, and He is faithful to those who are faithful to Him. If one word stands out from this entire dream, it is the word 'prepare' and we must do so with diligence. The children of God must steel themselves for what is coming, prepare their hearts and settle within their soul that the day in which we will have to stand for truth is soon approaching.   The Four 'People Bombs' Cheri Watson - 11/01/2007 (David's notes in red) I had a dream in the early morning hours, while it was still dark. Actually, this was the timing in the dream as well. In the dream, there were two planes headed towards the east, and both were flying over water. On the wings of both planes, there were bombs filled with people, not explosives, and under the belly of each plane, there was a real bomb. The plane on the left shot off the two 'people bombs' first. Then shortly after, the bomb on the belly of the plane. The people hit the water first and then the bomb. I didn't “see” any repercussions from the first bomb, but I knew there was a lot of devastation that I couldn't see. Then the people were shot out of the second plane, and then again shortly after, the second bomb from the belly of the plane was shot off. (I wasn't sure how I fit into the dream... I seemed to be in the second plane because I witnessed the first set of bombs go off and then I ended up in the water after the second set of 'people bombs' were set off. I don't know if this has any relevance.) Now, in the water, I was looking towards the sky, and I saw the second bomb headed for the water. I knew I had to get out of the water quickly, and I woke up saying, “It's happening too quickly! It's happening too quickly!!!” I hadn't slept well for the last three nights and awoke this morning very tired. I wasn't sure what the dream meant, so I prayed for the Holy Spirit to recall to my memory what I needed to remember of this dream and its interpretation. Then I sat down at my computer and I saw that Michael Boldea had had a recent dream... (shared above), my heart started pounding and I knew I had to read it. When I read the highlighted portion in red of Michael's dream, I felt a confirmation in the Spirit about the interpretation of my dream. The four “people” bombs (on the wings of the plane) represented the four horse judgments. The two “real” bombs attached to the bellies of the planes reminded me of the two attacks yet to come upon America (as given in Michael's dream of the eagle and the serpents) ... the first was 9/11, the second two are yet to come. The Lord showed me years ago that the horses represent the harnessed flesh of the beasts of lost humanity that will bring devastation to the earth. This is in agreement with Cheri's dream of bombs of people bringing this devastation. Cheri having to get out of the waters of humanity after the fourth 'people bomb' hits or the fourth horse is released is very scriptural. (Rev.17:15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the harlot sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.  Cheri and all saints must come out of the Babylonish Harlot before her judgments for they will be taking the mark of the beast during the last half of the Tribulation.  (Rev 18:4)  And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come forth, my people, out of her, that ye have no fellowship with her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues:    White Horse Prepared for Rider Linda L. Gray - 09/29/2016 (David's notes in red) I had this dream where I was inside my home when I noticed an unusual white cloud formation through one of my windows. To get a better look at the cloud formation, I went outside. It was a clear blue sky with no clouds elsewhere but this particular large formation in front of my house. (Nothing else will be more significant concerning changes in the world for God's people.) Within the formation of clouds, I saw a white horse. (The Man-child reformers who live above this evil world in heavenly places by abiding IN Christ. Eph.2: 6 and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places, in Christ Jesus: The Man-child body as a cloud will water the earth with the Word of God because he is manifestly seated with Christ in heavenly places. The rest of the Church has not yet manifested this place and is not chosen to be in the Man-child body of people.) There was no rider on the horse that I could see as the clouds kept going around the horse, making it difficult to get a clearer view. Psa.48:2 Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King. (The white horse is the Man-child head of Zion, the Bride, as John was told in Revelation. The rider is the Lord who reigns over the Man-child body but not yet the Church. All of the horses in the seals of Revelation 6 are white (representing holiness conquering the Beast), red (war), black (famine and economic collapse) and pale (death and Hades). The horses represent the flesh of men who serve the spirit and leadership that rides them and rules over them. All of these horses are people who bring these judgments to the world. When they are empowered, they will have riders upon them. The first rider is the Lord of His first-fruits Man-child body who will reign over the world and the Church.  At the time of this dream, this first rider is not yet reigning the horse, which comes with the Man-child's anointing. Rev.1:7 Behold, he cometh with the clouds (Notice: Jesus will come with the clouds or white horse Man-child body.); and every eye shall see him, and they that pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall mourn over him. Even so, Amen. (This verse has a more literal interpretation at the end of the tribulation, but it accurately describes in the Spirit what will happen when the white horse rider, Jesus in the Man-child body, leads the other horse judgments in the earth, which is exactly what Moses the Man-child did. He brought the other judgments. “He cometh with clouds”. The Gematria for “clouds” here is 144 x 10. 144 is the number of the Man-child and 10 is the number of the Word or law he obeys and teaches. “Were purchased from among men to be first-fruits” is verse 14:4. Notice the verse number 144. Rev.14:1 And I saw, and behold, the Lamb standing on the mount Zion, and with him a hundred and forty and four thousand, having his name, and the name of his Father, written on their foreheads. 4 These are they that were not defiled with women (sects or denominations); for they are virgins (not having received the seed or word of man). These are they that follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were purchased from among men, to be the firstfruits unto God and unto the Lamb. Both Jesus and Jesus in the Man-child, as a repeat of history, fit this. Psa.118:22 The stone which the builders rejected Is become the head of the corner.) Circling the outer perimeter of the cloud formation was a large plane, which apparently had seen this formation and was trying to get a better view. (Jesus, the Man-child was circled by a large group of people, as would be in a large plane, who wanted His holy teaching to live above the world. The white horse is typed by Mordecai, Moses, Joseph, David, Soloman, Jesus and many more. These were all reigned over by Jesus. This was a judgment on Egypt, as a type of the world. Each of these men and many like them led the Bride, and through them the Church, to freedom and power. Each of these also brought judgments on the Beast body, as a type of the world Beast body of seven heads and ten horns.) I (as a type of the Bride) was very excited and wanted a photo of the beautiful white horse, so I went inside my house to retrieve my cell phone. When I came back outside, the airspace was filled with war planes covering the entire field of vision, flying in a grid formation heading from south to north. It looked like a tic-tac-toe-type grid with the planes in perfect formation. (After the white horse body of the Man-child comes to conquer in Rev 6:2 comes war in verses 3&4. (Rev 6:2)  And I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon had a bow; and there was given unto him a crown: and he came forth conquering, and to conquer. 3  And when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, Come. 4  And another horse came forth, a red horse: and to him that sat thereon it was given to take peace from the earth, and that they should slay one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.  And after the Man-child was caught up to heavenly authority and the physical war came there was naturally a spiritual war with it. Rev.12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels going forth to war with the dragon; and the dragon warred and his angels; 8 And they prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven. 9 And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world; he was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with him. 10 And I heard a great voice in heaven, saying, Now is come the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, who accuseth them before our God day and night. 11 And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb, and because of the word of their testimony; and they loved not their life even unto death. And the Dragon or Satan was cast down to rule over his world body of seven heads and 10 horns, which is beaten by He who “came with the clouds”, the Man-child, and saints in whom the Lord lives. Jesus in the Man-child reformers, will conquer the world beast. Dan.7:13 I saw in the night-visions, and, behold, there came with the clouds of heaven one like unto a son of man, and he came even to the ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. 14 And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed. ... 22 until the ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the Most High, and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom. The dream then ended. (Whatever was in the clouds, the powers that be didn't like, and they were ready to wage war against it.) (Yes, the powers that be are the head of the Dragon body on earth. They are Satanists whom we are casting down.)   White Horse Vision M. L. - 03/28/2014 (David's notes in red) During our Friday night meeting, while singing “The Battle Belongs to the Lord” the final time, I had the following vision: The Lord was riding a white horse but I was only seeing the side area of the horse's head, near the mane. The mane was blowing back and I heard the snorting of the horse. I saw the Lord from mid-chest up in a white garment. In His strong, muscular right arm, He held the reins in a tight grip, showing His control. His mantle was blowing in the wind and He took His free hand and gave it a quick motion of throwing it back out of His way. He had the look of stern determination. {Rev.6:1} And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying as with a voice of thunder, Come. {2} And I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon had a bow; and there was given unto him a crown: and he came forth conquering, and to conquer. Following this are the horses of war, famine and death. He said to me, “Do you have any doubt that I can take care of your enemies, to deliver you from all bondages and heal all your diseases? I have already done this!” The verses that came to my mind were: {Isa.59:16} And He saw that there was no man, and was astonished that there was no one to intercede; then His own arm brought salvation to Him, and His righteousness upheld Him. {17} He put on righteousness like a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation on His head; and He put on garments of vengeance for clothing and wrapped Himself with zeal as a mantle. {18} According to their deeds, so He will repay, wrath to His adversaries, recompense to His enemies; To the coastlands He will make recompense. {19} So shall they fear the name of Jehovah from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun; for he will come as a rushing stream, which the breath of Jehovah driveth. {20} And a Redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith Jehovah. {21} And as for me, this is my covenant with them, saith Jehovah: my Spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith Jehovah, from henceforth and for ever. And continuing in chapter {60:1} Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of Jehovah is risen upon thee. {2} For, behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the peoples; but Jehovah will arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. {3} And nations shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising. {4} Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: they all gather themselves together, they come to thee; thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be carried in the arms. {5} Then thou shalt see and be radiant, and thy heart shall thrill and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be turned unto thee, the wealth of the nations shall come unto thee.   The Immature and the White Horse Warrior G. M. - 08/21/2015 (David's notes in red) This dream began with me being in an apartment complex. (This is a type of Christianity as a whole at this time, except that its growth into a holy temple is stunted. {Eph.2:21} in whom each several building, fitly framed together, groweth into a holy temple in the Lord; {22} in whom ye also are builded together for a habitation of God in the Spirit. The structure was not a large building, but small, simple units that were joined, but at different levels, because they were built on the side of a hill in a heavily wooded area. (I thought the apartment complex could speak of those [Christians] we share God's Word with and not all are of the same maturity.) The canopy of the trees overhead didn't allow much sunlight to come through, so it was shady. (Meaning they did not allow the light of the Son into their hearts. Many of God's people live in darkness, indoctrinated by idolatrous religious leaders and systems that are against the glorious light being offered by the Lord's ministers. Pray for them, saints. This will change.) I felt there were more adults in this complex (but they must keep a low profile, being weak to the weak, or they will not be able to be useful), but I was only seeing children (representing spiritual immaturity). The apartment that I was in was dimly lit, as all the curtains were closed. (The immature with a religious spirit are closed to more light than what they have in their idolatrous minds. Immaturity is not a sin; we have all been there, but perpetual immaturity imposed by the false prophets is.) I wanted to let some light in, so I opened a curtain toward the back of the apartment. (We have to get around their flesh, the house, to get into their spiritual man, subtly trying to get some light in that will dispel the darkness and manifest Christ in their lives. Sometimes it takes a shaking to bring the fear of the Lord and break through all the fairy tales so they can see they are vulnerable and will not fly away.) There was a chain-linked dog kennel right next to the house with a black Doberman and two smaller dogs or puppies with long curly black hair that were racing back and forth and yipping loudly. (Dogs in the kennel symbolized demonic spirits that were bound.) There was a larger dog on the outside of the kennel, looking at those inside the kennel. I was unaware of the dogs until I opened the curtain. I closed it immediately. (Demonic influence from leadership and immature peer pressure, all of whom are in bondage, toward those in darkness, which the house represents. The larger dog outside of their particular bondage represents the principality overseeing their bondage.) One of the little girls wanted to ride a horse, so we headed out to the pasture. (I only remember having the thought to go to the pasture and we were there.) Before our eyes was the most magnificent white horse that, in my estimation, stood 20 feet tall. (This is the white horse of Revelation. It is not the kind of horse that little girls ride. We have been shown that little girls represent those who are not mature, who are incapable to receive or sow the seed of the Word of God. Only Jesus in the warrior body of the Man-child will be mature enough to ride this horse. The Man-child receives this position by grace, but Jesus in anybody is awesome!) With a short explanation, I can share with you a revelation that will show how God will deal with the immature and rebellious Church to wake them up. In Genesis 48:19, Ephraim was called in Hebrew the “multitude of nations” (meaning “Gentiles”) and represents the Church. Ephraim was the second son of Joseph, who was one of the clearest types of Jesus in the Bible. Jesus, like Joseph, had two sons: Israel and the Church. Joseph's second-born, Ephraim, represents the Church, which received the Lord as their leader that would have been given to Manasseh, the first-born, who represents natural Israel. It will take a combination of judgment and the latter rain outpouring on a new leadership, the Man-child, to awaken the Church when the Lord returns, first manifested in the Man-child through the latter rain anointing. In type for this, Jesus was first to receive the former rain anointing. According to Joel, this will be poured out on the Church in our day, who mostly haven't received this. Here is that story: {Hos.5:14} For I will be unto Ephraim [the Church] as a lion [a full-grown lion, the Lord, the Lion of Judah!], and as a young lion [not as fearsome] to the house of Judah [so-called “spirit-filled” Christianity]: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will carry off, and there shall be none to deliver.  Jesus will chasten His apostate people of Christianity, just as they were under the Roman Empire in Jesus' day. {15} I will go and return to my place [which He did], till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me earnestly. Affliction is coming to those under man and false Christianity instead of God. {6:1} Come, and let us return unto Jehovah; for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up. {2} After two days will he revive us: on the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live before him. {3} And let us know, let us follow on to know Jehovah: his going forth is sure as the morning; and he will come unto us as the rain, as the latter rain that watereth the earth. Back to the dream. The warrior on this horse showed confidence and authority. (Which Jesus does. The latter rain-anointed Man-child Jesus will reign over the white horse, which will have manifested His name, meaning “nature, character and authority”.) The rider was wearing a silver helmet, like what I remember Roman soldiers wore. (Armor, like was in the Church in the time of Jesus, who had all the armor on, which pertains to putting on the Word, whom Jesus is. The silver helmet represents a mind that cannot be corrupted by Satan's arrows or his ministers.) He had a very long sword in his hand and was wearing a brilliant red robe that came down all the way to the ground. This was a very spectacular sight, as this scene was bursting with brightness. (The long sword represents His ability to reach all nations with judgment and to defend the saints. We are told in Isaiah 63 that His garments are stained with the blood of the Edomites, Esau's seed, who sold their birthright because of a root of bitterness against Israel, representing the true Church. {Isa.63:1} Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah [meaning sheepfold]? this that is glorious in his apparel, marching in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save. {2} Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winevat? {3} I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the peoples there was no man with me: yea, I trod them in mine anger, and trampled them in my wrath; and their lifeblood is sprinkled upon my garments, and I have stained all my raiment. The little girl and I were in awe of what was before us but I felt no fear. (This is a picture that will be replayed many times: the wise bringing the immature to Jesus over His Man-child warriors, who will give them the help they need.) After a while, the little girl took my hand and said she wanted to ride this horse. (This is a good desire but the crucified life comes first. Many want to be in this Man-child but are not willing to pay the price to lay down their lives to take up Jesus' life, the life of the Word.) Then I woke up. The scripture that was shared earlier that night from Revelation 19:11-13 gave an accurate description of the horse and rider that I saw. (This is Jesus who comes at the end of the tribulation in the day of the Lord's wrath to administer judgment to the Beast and False Prophet, who have crucified the saints. {Rev.19:11} And I saw the heaven opened; and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon called Faithful and True; and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. {12} And his eyes are a flame of fire, and upon his head are many diadems; and he hath a name written which no one knoweth but he himself. {13} And he is arrayed in a garment sprinkled with blood: and his name is called The Word of God. This is Jesus reigning over the Man-child reformers with many crowns, for He conquers all kings and takes their crowns. {11:15} And the seventh angel sounded; and there followed great voices in heaven, and they said, The kingdom of the world is become the kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ: and he shall reign for ever and ever. This is a picture of Jesus as the white horse rider, who comes to conquer the enemies of God's kingdom. {Rev.6:1} And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying as with a voice of thunder, Come. {2} And I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon had a bow; and there was given unto him a crown: and he came forth conquering, and to conquer. This is Jesus reigning over the corporate first fruits with one crown, symbolizing the unity of this corporate body to rule.) The Man-child ministry, in whom Jesus lives by His Word and Spirit, are the Revelation 6:2 white horse rider. Here are types of Man-children that were given this authority over the nations to speak and act for God: {Dan.2:46} Then the king Nebuchadnezzar fell upon his face, and worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an oblation and sweet odors unto him. {47} The king answered unto Daniel, and said, Of a truth your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, seeing thou hast been able to reveal this secret. {48} Then the king made Daniel great, and gave him many great gifts, and made him to rule over the whole province of Babylon, and to be chief governor over all the wise men of Babylon. (We have dreams that the Man-child will rule as President.) {Jer.1:9} Then Jehovah put forth his hand, and touched my mouth; and Jehovah said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth: {10} see, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to pluck up and to break down and to destroy and to overthrow, to build and to plant. {Gen.41:39} And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath showed thee all of this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou: {40} thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou. {41} And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt. I was given two scriptures by random: Isaiah 44:12 and Psalm 106:33. I felt led to read all of both chapters, as they brought out the strongholds of idolatry and rebellion that are rampant in America, but also God's promises to His people. Here they are in a portion of each text, and they fit the dream very well: {Isa.44:1} Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant, and Israel, who I have chosen: {2} Thus saith Jehovah that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, who will help thee: Fear not, O Jacob my servant; and thou, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen. {3} For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and streams upon the dry ground; I will pour my Spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring: {4} and they shall spring up among the grass, as willows by the watercourses... {8} Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have I not declared unto thee of old, and showed it? and ye are my witnesses. Is there a God besides me? yea, there is no Rock; I know not any. {9} They that fashion a graven image are all of them vanity; and the things that they delight in shall not profit; and their own witnesses see not, nor know: that they may be put to shame. {10} Who hath fashioned a god, or molten an image that is profitable for nothing? {11} Behold, all his fellows shall be put to shame; and the workmen, they are of men: let them all be gathered together, let them stand up; they shall fear, they shall be put to shame together. {12} The smith maketh an axe, and worketh in the coals, and fashioneth it with hammers, and worketh it with his strong arm: yea, he is hungry, and his strength faileth; he drinketh no water, and is faint. {21} Remember these things, O Jacob, and Israel; for thou art my servant: I have formed thee; thou art my servant: O Israel, thou shalt not be forgotten of me. {22} I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee. {23} Sing, O ye heavens, for Jehovah hath done it; shout, ye lower parts of the earth; break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein: for Jehovah hath redeemed Jacob, and will glorify himself in Israel. {Psa.106:6} We have sinned with our fathers, We have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly. {7} Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; They remembered not the multitude of thy lovingkindnesses, But were rebellious at the sea, even at the Red Sea. {8} Nevertheless he saved them for his name's sake, That he might make his mighty power to be known. {9} He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it was dried up: So he led them through the depths, as through a wilderness. {10} And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, And redeemed them from the hand of the enemy. {11} And the waters covered their adversaries; There was not one of them left. {12} Then believed they his words; They sang his praise. {13} They soon forgat his works; They waited not for his counsel, {14} But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, And tempted God in the desert. {15} And he gave them their request, But sent leanness into their soul. {16} They envied Moses also in the camp, And Aaron the saint of Jehovah. {17} The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, And covered the company of Abiram. {18} And a fire was kindled in their company; The flame burned up the wicked. {19} They made a calf in Horeb, And worshipped a molten image. {20} Thus they changed their glory For the likeness of an ox that eateth grass. {21} They forgat God their Saviour, Who had done great things in Egypt, {22} Wondrous works in the land of Ham, And terrible things by the Red Sea. {23} Therefore he said that he would destroy them, Had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach, To turn away his wrath, lest he should destroy them. {24} Yea, they despised the pleasant land, They believed not his word, {25} But murmured in their tents, And hearkened not unto the voice of Jehovah. {26} Therefore he sware unto them, That he would overthrow them in the wilderness, {27} And that he would overthrow their seed among the nations, And scatter them in the lands. {28} They joined themselves also unto Baal-peor, And ate the sacrifices of the dead. {29} Thus they provoked him to anger with their doings; And the plague brake in upon them. {30} Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment; And so the plague was stayed. {31} And that was reckoned unto him for righteousness, Unto all generations for evermore. {32} They angered him also at the waters of Meribah, So that it went ill with Moses for their sakes; {33} Because they were rebellious against his spirit, And he spake unadvisedly with his lips. {34} They did not destroy the peoples, As Jehovah commanded them, {35} But mingled themselves with the nations, And learned their works, {36} And served their idols, Which became a snare unto them. {37} Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto demons, {38} And shed innocent blood, Even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, Whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan; And the land was polluted with blood. {39} Thus were they defiled with their works, And played the harlot in their doings. {40} Therefore was the wrath of Jehovah kindled against his people, And he abhorred his inheritance. {41} And he gave them into the hand of the nations; And they that hated them ruled over them. {42} Their enemies also oppressed them, And they were brought into subjection under their hand. {43} Many times did he deliver them; But they were rebellious in their counsel, And were brought low in their iniquity. {44} Nevertheless he regarded their distress, When he heard their cry: {45} And he remembered for them his covenant, And repented according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses. {46} He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captive. {47} Save us, O Jehovah our God, And gather us from among the nations, To give thanks unto thy holy name, And to triumph in thy praise. {48} Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel, From everlasting even to everlasting. And let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye Jehovah.   Pray for the Man-child Anointing Eve Brast - 12/22/2015 (David's notes in red) I dreamed that David looked just like Jesus, but it was David on the inside. (This represents the works of Jesus manifested in the David Man-child body.) He was dressed in a white, seamless garment. (White implies purity and seamless implies not manmade, which means no works of the flesh.) He was going around healing all these sick people. They were all desperate and begging for him to heal them. (This is just as it was when Jesus came the first time. Now He is coming through the Word of God and latter rain anointing manifested in the Man-child Ministry.) The next part I remember is that I was in a log cabin (the wilderness tribulation) where we were having a UBM meeting. I was sitting on the floor waiting for everything to start when Michael Hare came up to me. He was smiling and had light shining in his eyes. He presented something to me that he was holding between his thumb and forefinger. I looked at it and it looked white and fluffy. I asked him, “What is it?” and almost immediately I answered my own question: “Manna!” I exclaimed. I took it and ate it right away. After this, I felt power enter into me and I knew that the Father would give me whatever I asked of Him in prayer. (When Michael gives to Eve, representing the Bride, the Manna from Heaven, she is empowered. The manna came in the wilderness and represented the Word of God. {Joh.6:49} Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. {50} This is the bread which cometh down out of heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. {51} I am the living bread which came down out of heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: yea and the bread which I will give is my flesh, for the life of the world. {1:14} And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father), full of grace and truth. Notice, He did not say if you confess Jesus as your personal Savior, but when you devour His Word, you will have eternal life. When this manna Word is manifest in you, you receive your requests. {Joh.15:7} If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatsoever ye will, and it shall be done unto you.) (I asked Father for a word concerning Michael [meaning, “who is like God”], giving me the manna, and received Ezekiel 18:9. In context: {Eze.18:7} if a man does not oppress anyone, but restores to the debtor his pledge, does not commit robbery, but gives his bread to the hungry and covers the naked with clothing, {8} if he does not lend money on interest or take increase, if he keeps his hand from iniquity and executes true justice between man and man, {9} if he walks in My statutes and My ordinances so as to deal faithfully - he is righteous and will surely live, declares the Lord GOD.) (Basically, we are seeing here that a faithful servant of the Lord who keeps His Word will be able to give the manna Word from Heaven to the Bride.) Then I got up and went over to a table and sat down with my hands clasped together and started to pray. (She was now asking God for everything by faith. :o) Then David came over to me (looking like David again) and placed a small handful of bread crumbs on the table before me. He said, “Eve, I need you to pray for me”. (“Looking like David again” means before the Davids look like Jesus and do all His healings and works mentioned above. In this state they need prayer to do those greater works. The crumbs on the table represent the minor works being handed out now. {Mat.15:27} But she said, Yea, Lord: for even the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table. So the Man-child Davids need prayer for the anointing.) He said this in a very calm and serious way. He then walked off to the right into another part of the log cabin. I then took a white cloth and scooped the bread crumbs onto it and held it between my hands as I began to pray in earnest for David. (Praying for the crumbs to become whole. ;o) (I asked Father for a verse for David, asking me to pray for him, and received through faith, {Psa.89:27} I also will make him [the Davids] my first-born, The highest of the kings of the earth. I believe this is saying to pray earnestly for the Man-child's [kingly] anointing.) (In context here is what was spoken to David: {Psa 89:19} Then thou spakest in vision to thy saints, And saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people. {20} I have found David my servant; With my holy oil have I anointed him: {21} With whom my hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him. {22} The enemy shall not exact from him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him. {23} And I will beat down his adversaries before him, And smite them that hate him. {24} But my faithfulness and my lovingkindness shall be with him; And in my name shall his horn be exalted. {25} I will set his hand also on the sea, And his right hand on the rivers. {26} He shall cry unto me, Thou art my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation. {27} I also will make him my first-born, The highest of the kings of the earth.) Then I asked Father, “Why did David ask me to pray for him? I received Psalm 119:90, and my finger was on the words “Thy faithfulness”. (Those who are in the Bride will be faithful to keep His commandments and will receive power with God to do His works.) (If we take only the words pointed out, it would speak of the Bride's faithfulness being a reason her prayers are heard for the Man-childs anointing. If we look at the text, it speaks of God's faithfulness to keep His Word.) {Psa.119:89} LAMEDH. For ever, O Jehovah, Thy word is settled in heaven. {90} Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: Thou hast established the earth, and it abideth. (Both fit the circumstances of the dream pretty well.) Pray for me, brethren. I desire to be one of the faithful Davids for the body and have been told by the Lord I would be, but every promise is fulfilled by His grace for our faithfulness, which is a gift from God. It is all by grace. (From our book, Hidden Manna For the End Times)   THE WHITE HORSE RIDER? (Rev.6:1) And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying as with a voice of thunder, Come. (2) And I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon had a bow; and there was given unto him a crown: and he came forth conquering, and to conquer. The white horse rider is Christ reigning on a modern-day body of believers called the Man-child. Jesus came at the start of the first 3 1/2 years of the disciples' tribulation, and the Man-child will come at the beginning of the first 3 1/2 years of the end-time Tribulation. Why must this be the first seal judgment? (1Pet.4:17) For the time [is come] for judgment to begin at the house of God: and if [it begin] first at us, what [shall be] the end of them that obey not the gospel of God? Just as the Man-child Jesus brought the unleavened bread of the truth, confirmed with signs and wonders, which made Israel and her leaders responsible to repent or be judged, so it will be with the end-time Man-child and spiritual Israel. (Joh.9:39) And Jesus said, For judgment came I into this world, that they that see not may see; and that they that see may become blind. Simeon prophesied that the Man-child Jesus would cause both the reprobation of some and the grafting in of others. (Luk.2:34) ...Behold, this [child] is set for the falling and the rising of many in Israel; and for a sign which is spoken against. Jesus was also a “sign” that the end-time Man-child would bring the same judgment. As it was with Jesus and Judaism, the Man-child will be “spoken against” by the apostate “Christians”. Moses, as a man-child, brought the Law, which held the rebels responsible and brought judgment. (Rom.4:15) For the law worketh wrath; but where there is no law, neither is there transgression. What does the “white horse” represent? As the mind of man uses his body as a beast of burden to do his work, so the horse is harnessed as a beast of burden to do his work. The horse represents the body God uses to do His work. (Psa.147:10) He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: He taketh no pleasure in the legs of a man. This verse could well fit the other horse riders in Revelation 6, but to ride a “white” horse symbolizes completely harnessing the strength of your body and mind to do “righteous” work. The horse carries the rider like the “legs of a man” carry the Man-child. Overcomers ride white horses because their body submits to the spiritual man who submits to the Holy Spirit. The Man-child will be the First-fruits of Jesus ruling the white horse in our day, and the elect of the Woman will also follow their Lord on white horses to finish off the judgment after the Tribulation. (Rev.19:11) And I saw the heaven opened; and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon called Faithful and True; and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. (14) And the armies which are in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white [and] pure. Just as the latter rain outpouring of the Spirit on the Man-child will harness his body as a white horse, so through the next three seal judgments, evil spirits will ride upon the beast of the flesh of men to bring these curses upon the earth. The difference between the Man-child and the rest of the riders is that he is the one who looses these judgments as did Jesus, Moses, and Jeremiah. (Rev.6:3) And when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, Come. (4) And another [horse] came forth, a red horse: and to him that sat thereon it was given to take peace from the earth, and that they should slay one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. (5) And when he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying, Come. And I saw, and behold, a black horse; and he that sat thereon had a balance in his hand. (6) And I heard as it were a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, A measure of wheat for a shilling, and three measures of barley for a shilling (famine); and the oil and the wine hurt thou not. (7) And when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, Come. (8) And I saw, and behold, a pale horse: and he that sat upon him, his name was Death; and Hades followed with him. And there was given unto them authority over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with famine, and with death, and by the wild beasts of the earth. Remember that Jesus said, “I have given you authority...over all the power of the enemy” (Luk.10:19). Authority in this case is the right to use the power of the demons. Twice Paul, by the power of the name of Jesus, delivered sinners over to Satan for chastening so that they would repent and be saved. (1Cor.5:4) In the name of our Lord Jesus, ye being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus, (5) to deliver such a one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. The Man-child will exercise “authority” and pass it on to the Woman to bring the same “sword”, “famine”, and “death” to those who return evil for good, in order to save a remnant of God's people from them. Much of this will happen after the mark of the beast when these people cannot be saved. Jeremiah was a type of the Man-child who loosed the judgments to come. (Jer.18:20) Shall evil be recompensed for good? for they have digged a pit for my soul. Remember how I stood before thee to speak good for them, to turn away thy wrath from them. (21) Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, and give them over to the power of the sword; and let their wives become childless, and widows; and let their men be slain of death, [and] their young men smitten of the sword in battle. Moses and Samuel represent the same type of the Man-child whose words and teachings to the Woman will bring forth the same judgments. (15:1) Then said the Lord unto me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind would not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth. (2) And it shall come to pass, when they say unto thee, Whither shall we go forth? then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith the Lord: Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for captivity, to captivity. Jesus, in His First-fruits Man-child, will send forth the disciples with the Word of God to bring the above judgments on the world. (Rev.6:2) And I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon had a bow; and there was given unto him a crown: and he came forth conquering, and to conquer. Notice that He has “a bow” but no arrows, meaning they have been sent forth. “Apostle” means “one sent forth”. As Jesus was from Judah and sent forth His twelve apostles and then the seventy disciples, so the Man-child is spiritually a corporate body from Judah and will be the “bow” that sends forth these “arrows”. (Zec.9:13) For I have bent Judah for me, I have filled the bow with Ephraim (Ephraim was called in Hebrew the “fulness of nations [Gentiles]” in Genesis 48:19 and represents the Woman or Church of all nations.); and I will stir up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece (beast kingdom), and will make thee as the sword of a mighty man. (14) And the Lord shall be seen over them; and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning.... (15) The Lord of hosts will defend them; and they shall devour.... As Jesus' disciples went forth to conquer the mind of the beast that ruled over the elect of God, so will the Man-child's disciples. (Psa.127:3) Lo, children are a heritage of the Lord; [And] the fruit of the womb is [his] reward. (4) As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, So are the children of youth. Jesus' disciples, whom He sent out like arrows, were His “children of youth” for He has had many since then. He called His disciples “children” in Joh.13:33; 21:5. In Isaiah's prophecy of the coming of Jesus as Immanuel, He called His disciples His “children” in Isa.7:14; 8:16,18. The worldwide Man-child will send forth the disciple arrows to conquer the flesh, the Beast, and the devil. (Psa.127:5) Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: They shall not be put to shame, When they speak with their enemies in the gate. The disciple arrows will go forth to conquer the “enemies in the gate” of the kingdom with the spoken Word. Jesus, Who was the Light and called His disciples “sons of light” in Joh.12:36, also said that the light would bring judgment when men denied it. (Joh.3:19) And this is the judgment, that the light is come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil. The Man-child and the disciple arrows will once more bring the light of truth, which will judge the world. This judgment will begin at the house of God and spread outward. As it was with Jesus, those who reject the light will be reprobated, while those who accept it will be the “sons of light”. Like the Man-child, Jesus spoke the judgment that the god of this world, who blinds the minds of the unbelieving, carried out. (Mat.13:14) And unto them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall in no wise understand; And seeing ye shall see, and shall in no wise perceive. The white horse rider will bring truth, which is the foundation for all judgment. Remember that Moses, who was the white horse of his day, brought all the judgments on Egypt. In fulfillment of that type, the Man-child will lead all the other judgment horses of Revelation 6 against the world. In her book Prepare for the Winds of Change II, chapter 1, Nita Johnson relates her vision describing the white horse rider's ministry. You will notice that it is the Word that goes forth from the anointed teachers of the end times, as they call the elect out of Babylon, and brings judgment or delivers from it. My notes are in parentheses. On January 10, 1990, I was granted a visitation by an angel. When I first saw this majestic being, I was awe-struck by his beauty, his power, and his obvious authority. He was dressed in a white garb resembling an old Roman military uniform. (This is the Roman armor spoken of in Ephesians 6:13-17 during the time of the worldwide Roman Empire.) His belt and type of breastplate were of gold. His whole appearance seemed to glow with the glow of heaven itself. He was riding an equally beautiful and powerful white war-horse. Both horse and rider were very large. The horse was much larger than any horse you and I would ever have occasion to see here on earth. It was indeed obvious that this incredible being was one of God's higher-ranking dignitaries. (The large size of the white horse implies a corporate body of people whose bodies have become submissive beasts of burden, or in other words, they have a holy walk. Since angelos is the Greek word for messenger, this large messenger represents Jesus on the corporate body of the Man-child.) I was frightened by the sight of him and would soon find myself quite distressed over his message to us. I first saw him as he rode this incredible white war-horse down what could have been any street in a typical subdivision anywhere in America. He was carrying a huge sword in his hand (This represents the spoken Word of God in Heb.4:12). This Instrument was actually long enough to be a lance, but its shape was that of a sword. With it, he would touch the roof of the houses on either side of the road out of every two or three he passed, thereby bringing judgment. He would declare, “Let the judgment fall from the greatest to the least of the unrepentant”. I then found myself standing at the end of this same street, watching intently and fearfully as this illustrious angel moved down the street in my direction. After every house that he cursed, he would proclaim warnings, as it were into the streets. “Great judgment is coming to the lovers of this world. Those unrepentant and cripplers of the children - fear!” Again and again, he would exclaim, “Babylon is falling! Come out; come out of her my children. Take nothing with you; only the clothes on your back and don't begrudge the cost. Judgment is coming at midnight. The hour is 11:55! I say don't mourn the loss, only come away: Come out of her. Run from the daughter of wickedness! Time is at an end. Judgment is sure...”, this he would cry out over and over again, as one would imagine a town crier doing, such as Paul Revere of old. He came to a standstill in front of me, sitting on his horse he spoke with me, giving me a great deal of instruction. Calling me by name, he said, “Nita, warn the people. Warn the people of the earth that judgment is coming at midnight, and the hour is even now 11:55. Everywhere tell them to heed the teachers. Heed my anointed, for their counsel is sure, and is the way of safety and life. Counsel is coming from behind the veil. Among other things, counsel concerning spiritual warfare. Government is again coming to the Church, and God is bringing forth the mighty men of valor to lead the Church forth in war. Tell my people; Heed the teachers, for their counsel is sure and will provide safety in treacherous time. Heed the prophets and apostles, heed my anointed, for their counsel is sure and a way of safety and life. (Jesus, as the Man-child was called Teacher, Prophet, and Apostle.) God will be lifting up specially anointed teachers, prophets of the Most High. They will be given the rod of government. They will carry the sword (as this angel does in type), bringing separation and judgment and will be healers of great breaches among My own. (They will be used to bring the true flock into one accord with their one Shepherd, Jesus, as He prophesied.) They will prepare the saints with battle strategy and equip them with the power of a mighty warrior, bearing the anointing to spoil. (They will bring judgment on the Beast and Harlot systems.) Heaven's government is coming in to separate, heal and lead out into strategic battle. These prophets will be teachers who will be given counsel from behind the veil. Counsel of superior wisdom and strategy for safety, unity and spiritual warfare. They will be taken into the secret counsel of the Most High to obtain what must be diligently taught to the elect. This counsel will provide safety in treacherous times. Don't mourn, only heed the voice of the Spirit of counsel and might. Tell my people to heed the coming anointed ones, tell them to prepare!” From that point, he began to share many things. He gave much instruction, much information and much warning. He finally told me I would find further understanding of these things in the book of Zechariah. “Study it, understand it, let the Holy Spirit give you much enlightenment in it”, he instructed. In closing, he said one more time, “Go forth now and tell the people of the earth. Warn them judgment is coming and it's sure.” Then he left, and I was alone in my room. Jesus manifested in these anointed apostolic teachers and prophets will be the foundation for God's plan to “restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called the city of righteousness, a faithful town” (Isa.1:26). One more thing: I believe there is a parallel interpretation     of the White Horse Rider and his White Horse. That is the rider is Jesus in the Man-child and the white horse is their submissive and holy body. For instance, Jesus' body was submissive to His spirit man as is so with the Man-child body. I have taught this elsewhere.

Berly and LA tackle Supernatural Season 8, Episode 15: "Man's Best Friend with Benefits" - and from the title alone, you can guess why the hosts were NOT having it.The episode opens with a cop murdering people in gruesome neck-exploding fashion, only to reveal he's been having prophetic dreams about the killings. Enter James Frampton (yes, with embroidered initials JMF), a witch-cop whose beautiful Doberman familiar Portia can also take human form. And yes, they're sleeping together, which had the hosts immediately uncomfortable with the entire premise.Sam and Dean get called in by Portia (who literally trots into their motel room as a dog, then transforms into a woman in a LBD and heels) to help James, who thinks he's murdering people in his sleep. The investigation leads them into the witch community, complete with a bar featuring telepathic chess and a suspicious character literally named "Philippe La Chat" (the cat) - because subtlety is dead.The hosts were thrown from the start by Three Stooges references they had to Google, and spent the episode increasingly bothered by the familiar/witch romantic relationship dynamics. The case reveals James is being controlled by his jealous witch friend Spencer, who's upset about the forbidden familiar-witch romance and uses Phillipe to frame James.After a witch fight involving some awkward special effects, the boys use one of Bobby's witch-killing spells to take out Spencer. The episode ends with James and Portia driving off together (with her inexplicably in dog form in the front seat) to start over somewhere new.The real payoff comes in the final scene where Dean admits he trusts Sam to handle the trials after experiencing some hell visions, leading to their "we'll do this together" moment. Sam then coughs up blood and hides it from Dean, setting up future drama.The hosts called this one of their least favorite episodes, citing excessive exposition, problematic relationship dynamics, and a general disconnect from the show's usual tone. Even the laundry basket pratfall that made them laugh couldn't save this one. Written by seasoned TV veterans, it felt like a missed assignment that just didn't work within the Supernatural universe."By the way, I gotta hand it to you. It's been 15 hours since Portia mentioned her night with James, and not one bestiality joke out of you."Sources:https://supernatural.fandom.com/wiki/Man%27s_Best_Friend_With_Benefits https://k-oconnell.medium.com/familiars-what-they-are-and-how-to-get-one-a5869189912fSend us your review!Support the showTHANK YOU FOR LISTENING!Please rate and review Denim-Wrapped Nightmares wherever you get your podcasts!
