Pushing Forward with Alycia welcomes award-winning singer, songwriter, actor, writer, and Georgetown Law graduate James Ian, who lives with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) type 3. Alycia Anderson and James talk about meeting at New York Fashion Week 2024 during Runway of Dreams and what it meant to see disabled models represented on the runway. James shares how access barriers at Georgetown motivated him toward law school to fight for disability rights, and how experiences performing music—including falling on stage and disclosing his disability—helped him realize he could advocate through art. He also talks about his performance at the DRA Gala (Disability Rights Advocates) in a room that included Hillary Clinton, and discusses the limited opportunities for disabled musicians, widespread venue inaccessibility, and the extra labor of education and advocacy alongside creative work. James details SMA basics, how type 3 has progressed for him, and complications from his cervical stenosis surgery that led to C5 palsy, major loss of arm strength, requiring rehab and forcing him to relearn his body. This episode dives into so much more with reflections on grief, gratitude, learning to accept help and more on his songs including “Spaces,” “Lift Me Up” honoring Judy Heumann, and his collaboration “Unconditional Love” with disabled artist Tap Waters.

ith the tampering period looming, the conversation shifts to travel plans, spring training trips to Florida, early-morning flights, and who might have to carry a solo show if things go sideways. Plus, a live Rico weekend, lineup shakeups, and the real fear of what happens if the backups sound too good on air. Classic WFAN banter where football hype meets logistical panic.

 What does it take to get to the top? Today, we're looking at the grit of the Patriots in the Super Bowl and the relentless spirit of USA Hockey at the Winter Games.

This is a clip of the latest Bonus pod! For the full episode, please subscribe on Patreon. In this bonus pod, we talk about the workwear/Americana goodness found in Clint Bentley's Train Dreams (2025). Malgosia Turzanska's costuming is really well done, being a combination of true vintage, repro, and modern garments to evoke the rugged attire of loggers in the 1910s. With all of the picturesque imagery and composed blocking, every shot in the film serves as inspo fodder for any menswear enthusiast, while also harkening to the bygone days of 2010 heritage-core. The movie also just feels like one long, sad/contemplative Filson editorial— and we mean that in a good way!

“Send Coach John a message”This episode is brought to you by NBC Sports … LOL… not really, but this is where I found the inspiration for today's episode.  (@NBCSports). My thoughts on this - “Coach John Daly (@coachtosuccess) were: Love this perspective from (@miketirico) - look at his eyes as he's sharing from his heart!” The quote from the post: "Our country loves sports and it brings us together unlike anything else." Mike Tirico wraps up a HISTORIC #WinterOlympics for Team USA.  Love the emotion from Mike and reminding us that great things can happen when we get inspired to chase our dreams. He's right. Our dreams that we have are for us to start going after now, whatever age we are. Be inspired by the work, blood, sweat and tears that others give for their dreams. It's not about sports - it's about the belief in ourselves knowing that others find ways of obtaining their dreams. We can do the same. Don't let the politics swirling around put a damper on your dreams and goals. It's about the lessons that we can take from others - not just athletes, but business people, medical leaders, faith leaders, leaders from all professions and not just in our country, but from around the world. It's time for you to go after those dreams that you have in your heart and soul. The same is true for me!

According to the Gaza peace plan President Trump negotiated between Israel and Hamas, Palestinians will not be displaced from the territory. This is a pivot from Trump's earlier position that Palestinians should leave and move to other countries. But powerful people in Israel's government don't like this change. We go to Israel's parliament, where those who say Israel should stay in Gaza are making their case.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

The latest film from the writer and director Clint Bentley, “Train Dreams,” is nominated for four Oscars, including best adapted screenplay. The movie is based on Denis Johnson's 2011 novella of the same name and tells the story of Robert Grainier, a logger in the Pacific Northwest, in stream-of-consciousness, nonlinear prose. This week, Gilbert Cruz talks with Bentley, who wrote the screenplay with Greg Kwedar, his longtime collaborator, about how he went about translating Johnson's work into a visual medium. Bentley first read “Train Dreams” just after college, long before he ever thought of making it into a movie. When producers with rights to the book approached Bentley, he was suddenly worried. “Going back and reading the book again,” Bentley said, “I was like, Oh, maybe this thing is unadaptable.” Set on capturing the spirit of the book, Bentley and Kwedar focused on “the vastness of this small little life,” he said. “We very rarely have an understanding of our lives in the moment we're actually living them,” Bentley said. “We only start to understand them when it's too late.” Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

In this clip, we break down why the numbers look strong, yet Americans still don’t feel it, after years of Biden-era inflation and a shrinking sense of the American Dream.

A new study from researchers at Northwestern University found that it might be possible to influence your dreams and use them to solve problems creatively.

Summary In this episode, Doug Bennett interviews Darren Jamieson, who shares his unique perspective on goal setting, emphasizing action over traditional goal frameworks. Darren discusses his journey from dreaming about owning an Aston Martin to making it a reality, and how he approaches big targets like growing his YouTube channel. He draws parallels between comedy and sales, highlighting the importance of audience engagement. The conversation also covers Darren's TEDx experience, reflections on performance, and insights into business growth strategies, focusing on understanding client needs and metrics that matter. Takeaways Goals should be seen as actionable items, not just dreams. Setting a target is more effective than traditional goal setting. The importance of planning and strategy in achieving targets. Using YouTube shorts can significantly boost video engagement. Comedy training can enhance sales skills and audience connection. TEDx talks require thorough preparation and understanding of the audience. Performance can vary; it's important to recognize when to step back. Focus on the right metrics that drive business success. Building a business is about delivering results, not just services. Aim high with your targets to push your limits. Sound Bites "I don't set goals as such." "I want to get to 10,000 subscribers." "Comedy and sales are very similar."

In Part 2 with Kathy Gray, we talk about the difference between nightmares and spiritual encounters, how to take authority over fear, and how to steward your dream life with discernment instead of confusion.

My Queer Dreams: the bus

Monday February 23, 2026I Week of LentToday's readings remind us that God's purposes often begin in obscurity, tension, and testing.In Genesis 37:1–11, Joseph receives dreams of future exaltation—but those dreams stir jealousy and division within his own family. What God reveals in promise does not always unfold in peace. Sometimes destiny is planted in dysfunction, and faith must hold steady while the story develops.In 1 Corinthians 1:1–19, Paul confronts a divided church tempted to rally around personalities and human wisdom. He redirects them to the cross—the true center of unity and power. The message of Christ crucified may seem foolish to the world, but it is the very wisdom and power of God.And in Mark 1:1–13, the Gospel opens with urgency: “The beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ.” From John's call to repentance, to Jesus' baptism and the Father's affirmation, to the Spirit leading Him into the wilderness—God's redemptive plan moves forward with purpose. Before public ministry comes testing; before glory comes obedience.This episode invites us to trust God's dreams even when misunderstood, to center our lives on the cross rather than personalities, and to embrace both affirmation and wilderness as part of God's unfolding work.

When was the last time that you let yourself dream… and I mean actually dream. Dream big, boldly and bravely. A time where you let yourself dream long enough without immediately talking yourself out of it? And I'm not talking about the safe version of dreaming or the realistic version, but the version of dreaming that once made your heart feel fully alive. Somewhere between the responsibilities and survival mode and showing up for everyone else, a lot of us quietly tucked our dreams away. Not because they stopped mattering, because other parts of life felt more important. Today, I want to remind you of something really important. And that's this. Your dreams matter. And right now is the perfect time to start dreaming again!

In today's episode of the RattlerGator Report, JB White battles technical chaos before diving into a wide-ranging and deeply personal show. He reflects on a pivotal weekend sparked by Joe Justice's entrepreneurial “chase your dreams” mindset, leading JB to reassess his own Tesla-based robo-taxi plans and a possible move to Orlando as full self-driving expansion looms. He explores Elon Musk's long-term vision of abundance driven by artificial general intelligence, wrestling with both the promise and spiritual implications of a post-scarcity world. JB also celebrates Team USA's electrifying hockey victory over Canada, calling it a defining American moment and praising the team's unapologetic patriotism. The episode then pivots to election integrity, analyzing DOJ efforts to obtain voter registration rolls, alleged Social Security cross-checks, and what he believes could become a national security showdown over 2020 interference and voter fraud. Blending AI disruption, geopolitical tension, sports pride, and constitutional stakes, this episode captures JB thinking out loud about the next two years—personally and nationally—as he declares, “It's time to get busy.”

We schedule date nights. We put work meetings on the calendar weeks in advance. We block time for workouts, studying, client calls, business planning.But we don't schedule friend dates.Somehow we expect friendships to just… survive.In high school and college, proximity did the work for us. You saw the same people every day. You studied together. Ate together. Walked to class together. Friendship was built into your environment.Now? There's no built-in proximity. No shared dorms. No accidental late-night conversations. If you don't intentionally create time, it doesn't happen.And then life gets full.Babies.Businesses.Marriage.Deadlines.Dreams.And friendships quietly move to the bottom of the list — not because they don't matter, but because they don't feel urgent.Add to that the fact that we're more emotionally mature now. We've been hurt before. We have boundaries. We have standards. But we don't always have the communication skills to match that growth. So instead of saying, “I miss you,” we withdraw. Instead of asking for more effort, we assume we're too much.And suddenly, you can have a beautiful, full life… and still feel lonely.Today I want to talk about adult friendships — why they feel harder than they used to, why they matter more than we admit, and how to build them intentionally in the middle of a very full life.
