In this exclusive interview, pastor and evangelist Greg Laurie sits down with rock legend Alice Cooper. Widely considered to be the father of “shock rock,” Alice Cooper has sold more than 50 million albums worldwide. While he is known for his music career, most do not know Alice Cooper is a committed Christian. Pastor Greg explores more of Alice Cooper's life in his latest book, Lennon, Dylan, Alice, & Jesus.

Growing up in a Christian home, Cooper always knew he needed Christ. But it took a dramatic turn in a drug-induced haze for him to realize he needed to recommit to Jesus Christ or he was finished. The son and grandson of preachers, Cooper knew who Jesus was and knew that Christianity was true, yet he wanted to walk his own path—a trail that led him to the heights of stardom, partying, and befriending some of the biggest names in show business. Then it all changed. His marriage was falling apart and Cooper was in the pits of alcohol and drug use when he decided to quit and get clean. He began going to church and said that it was the fear of God that brought him around, that he was terrified of Hell. Although fear brought him to the Lord, it was the love of Christ that grew him. The conversation also includes musings by Cooper and Laurie about the so-called “27 Club,” various legends of rock and roll, as well as a discussion about depression, suicide, drugs, alcohol abuse, and their power to destroy. This conversation in its entirety is a testament to the power of God and His transforming power and forgiveness—if we only accept Him and allow Him to change us for the better! --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org This podcast is supported by the generosity of our Harvest Partners.

I was featured on the world renowned Ben Greenfield health podcast this week and Ben and I took a 90 minute walk around the park in Austin, TX to discuss a spectrum of thought invoking topics relating to my book, The Addiction Free Lifestyle. This was one of the most insightful and deeply rich podcast recordings I have had in a long time. The authenticity and realness of Ben as a podcast host allowed for us to delve into many areas of life that most would not feel comfortable discussing with the world. I recently met Ronnie, and he gifted me his book The Addiction-Free Lifestyle: The True Path to Inner Peace & Self Mastery. It was so excellent and thought-provoking that I just had to get Ronnie on the podcast to take a deep dive into the concepts within the book. If you struggle with attachment to anything from nootropics and smart drugs, to caffeine, to porn or masturbation, to serial relationships, or anything else, this show is for you. - Ben GreenfieldThe Ultimate 30 Day Dopamine Reset http://www.hhphealth.com/dopamine$50 off DR Program: BENGREENFIELD$100 off DR VIP Program: BENGREENFIELDVIPAddiction Free Lifestyle Book:https://theaddictionfreelifestyle.com/book

Health is one of the major budget items, with $11.1 billion over the next four years. It's the biggest government investment in health to date with a huge focus on creating Health NZ and a Māori Health Authority. Health NZ, which will replace the District Health Boards, will get $3.1 billion in funding over the next two years. And Pharmac, the government's drug buying agency will receive an extra $191 million, taking its total funding to $1.2 billion. Outside Parliament on Thursday a group of about 30 people - some of whom have rare diseases - were keenly awaiting news of the Pharmac funding. On a cold and windy day in the capital - the group were wearing beanies reading: "let them live". Malcolm Mulholland's wife Wiki died of breast cancer last year after spending her final months campaigning for better access to medications that Pharmac does not fund but are available in places like Australia.

This week, in Raccoon, Kentucky, a man who owns a sawmill, and does some moonshining, on the side, recruits a crack crew of murderers, with the goal of killing his soon to be ex-wife, saving him a lot of trouble. But when you recruit whoever is around, and willing to commit crimes, might not be the best way to carry out a murder plot. This proves to be true, even the the absolutely vicious murder goes off without a hitch, leaving the victim with half of a head, and a lot of stab wounds. The whole thing falls apart, when one of the killers has a bout of conscience, then the really crazy stuff happens! This is a mess!Along the way, we find out that Kentucky takes great pride in their hillbilly culture, that a random criminal that you happen to know might not be the best candidate for a murder plot, and that you can't deny your own voice, talking gleefully about murder!!Hosted by James Pietragallo and Jimmie WhismanNew episodes every Thursday!Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com and use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.comGo to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports!Follow us on...twitter.com/@murdersmallfacebook.com/smalltownpodinstagram.com/smalltownmurderAlso, check out James & Jimmie's other show, Crime In Sports!

Prepare to rethink everything you have been taught about female sexuality. One in five couples practice open non-monogamy, yet cultural and societal expectations are that a woman have only one partner for life. Dr. Martin's book, UNTRUE: Why Nearly Everything We Believe About Women, Lust, and Adultery is Wrong-and how the new science can set us free “cuts through the junk science and regressive cultural narratives that have shaped our beliefs about female infidelity for centuries revealing, a truth both liberating and disconcerting: women are no more “naturally monogamous” than men; nor are their libidos shrinking violets.” In this episode, Dr. Streicher and Dr. Martin discuss: WHY the science of female sexuality is mis-represented, misunderstood, and usually wrong Why there is so little INFORMATION on the CLITORIS If MEN are biologically MORE SEXUAL and have higher libidos than women The difference between spontaneous and RESPONSIVE DESIRE The ORGASM GAP! Why female pleasure is such a low priority What libido DRUGS are really medicating Why the clitoris is “forward facing” instead of inside the vagina Lessons learned from primate sexual behavior, and what animal to visit next time you go to the zoo Why from an anthropologic point of view, woman are not BIOLOGICALLY programmed to have ONE PARTNER When and why women LOSE INTEREST in sex with a long-term partner, assuming that the sex is still worth having  Why monogamy is harder for women than it is for men If women CHEAT as often as men  All about “OPEN NON-MONOGAMY” What it is, how many people are monogamous, why the numbers are growing and how to broach the topic with your partner   If JEALOUSY is inevitable with openly non-monogamous couples Where in the world is the BEST PLACE to be a woman sexually For more information on Dr. Wednesday Martin, visit: WednesdayMartin.com Dr. Martin on Instagram: @WednesdayMartinphd Dr. Martin's Books: UNTRUE: Why Nearly Everything We Believe About Women, Lust, and Adultery is Wrong-and how the new science can set us free Primates of Park Avenue Stepmonster Lauren Streicher, MD is a clinical professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine, and the medical director of the Northwestern Medicine Center for Sexual Medicine and Menopause.

Marjorie Rodriguez was a gun carrier, drug dealer, and all around bad girl. Until she found both God and her husband Gus and turned her life around.

Maia Szalavitz is an award-winning, best-selling author and opinion writer, whose focus is on changing the narrative of addiction and recovery. Two of her books Undoing Drugs: The Untold Story of Harm Reduction and the Future of Addiction and Unbroken Brain: A Revolutionary New Way of Understanding Addiction, are among a long list of publications that address this issue. In this podcast, she talks about: Her New York Times opinion piece about Oregon decriminalizing drug possession How external force undermines internal motivation How the Black Lives Matter Movement shows the racial disparities in the justice system That criminal drug laws aren't based on science and how emotions are decision algorithms The debate over decriminalization is based on a fundamental misunderstanding of what actually works Explaining the analogy of addiction to that of falling in love or having a baby; people do crazy things People with addiction are not lazy, they are hurting Trying to punish our way out of addiction is not the answer Why it's important to meet people where they are and welcome them to treatment Not calling doctor prescribed medication Medically Assisted Treatment (MAT) Why we need more expansive definitions of recovery How chronic pain patients are being negatively affected by the opioid epidemic

In November 2020, Oregon voters approved Measure 110, essentially decriminalizing possession of small amounts of drugs — from heroin to cocaine to opioid pills. Instead of criminal penalties, the law calls for treatment centers to be set up all over the state, so addiction could be treated as a health care issue, not a law enforcement issue. he problem, law enforcement says, is that has led to a huge increase in the amount of drugs on the streets — and now, an increase in crime. KGW joined Sgt. Matt Ferguson, the leader of the Special Investigations Unit of the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office, for a ride-along to see what that looks like. On this day, Ferguson and his team partnered with Portland Police to run surveillance on a motel in Northeast Portland.

Episode 22:20 Your Disease Is NOT The Problem On last week's episode we talked about the ONE mistake every medical doctor makes: They focus their attention solely on treating symptoms and diseases without trying to identify and correct their CAUSE. The reason this is a mistake is simple: Treating symptoms does NOT help your body heal. Healing only comes from identifying and eliminating the CAUSE of your symptoms. On this episode we dive deeper into this very important topic. Specifically, we share how your disease is NOT the problem. Instead, your disease is simply the "signalling system" your body uses to let you know that there IS a problem... an underlying CAUSE to your symptoms and disease. Unfortunately, most doctors ignore this and limit their scope of practice to the treatment of symptoms. This does you, the patient, an injustice. On this week's episode we also share how, if you're struggling to discover the cure to a condition, you MUST find a doctor who will work with you on identifying and eliminating the CAUSE. Why? Because, without addressing the CAUSE, there's a good chance your body will not heal! A good example of this - one we talk about on the episode - is the treatment of High Blood Pressure. As you know, the typical patient with High Blood Pressure is simply given drugs. - Drugs that will only "mask" the problem. - Drugs they will have to take for the rest of their life. - Drugs that come with several negative side-effects. - Drugs that will do nothing to provide a cure! That is, although drugs can lower a person's blood pressure numbers, they will do NOTHING to correct the CAUSE of High Blood Pressure. As a result, the underlying problems that are CAUSING the High Blood Pressure will persist and continue to do harm to the person's body. Unfortunately, this problem is NOT limited to the treatment of High Blood Pressure. It applies to nearly ALL chronic conditions! That is, in nearly ALL chronic conditions - High Blood Pressure, Type 2 Diabetes, Fatigue, Headaches, Digestive Disorders, Alzheimer's, and Arthritis - drugs are prescribed to deal with the SYMPTOMS, while the CAUSE goes unaddressed. This has to stop! How? On this episode we lay the foundation for doing just that... and set the stage for our next two episodes: One which will discuss the idea of using Natural Solutions (as opposed to drugs) for treating chronic conditions. The other for sharing the three primary CAUSES behind nearly all chronic conditions. Give this episode a good listen as the information will change how you view your symptoms… and how you view your doctors!  Also, be sure to share this episode with a friend.
