From food justice to community power, he breaks down the systems that created the crisis — and how Sankofa is rewriting the script.Kamal unpacks:• Why food deserts exist• How Sankofa Farms is building a sustainable, community-led food system• The role of agriculture in Black self-determination• What the Sankofa Agricultural Academy teaches young men about leadership and resilience• Why food access is political — and why it doesn't have to stay that way

Jon Herold and Burning Bright break down a marathon night of geopolitical signaling and narrative chaos, starting with Trump's new “corollary” to the Monroe Doctrine and what it reveals about American sovereignty, foreign interference, and the shifting definition of the modern empire. Their conversation quickly turns to Paul Sperry's explosive report alleging that key Trump-era officials, Barr, Durham, Pompeo, Bolton, and Haspel, may have buried intelligence that could have blown up Russiagate, raising new questions about Durham's choices and whether the ICA review was intentionally suppressed. Jon and BB debate the credibility of anonymous sourcing, the necessity of bicameral thinking, and the dangers of narratives designed to demoralize the MAGA base. They move through Venezuela strikes, war-crime framing, the SignalGate leak, and competing media “takedowns,” illustrating how information warfare now operates across every institution. With humor, flu-ridden rambling, and sharp analysis, the duo show how sovereignty, declassification, foreign policy, and controlled opposition threads all collide at once, and why discernment is more important than ever.

Today's episode is admittedly unsexy—but it's one of those things I wish someone had explained to me in plain language before I needed it. We're talking about 1031 exchanges, which you've probably heard of if you own investment property, but might not fully understand unless you're an accountant or deeply embedded in real estate. This is for the rest of us—the cabin owners who've never sold a property before but are considering it, or anyone who wants to understand their options when it comes to the tax implications of selling an investment property without needing a finance degree to decode it.I'm sharing our experience from this summer when we sold two properties and purchased one new property, intending to use a 1031 exchange to defer capital gains taxes and simplify our portfolio. The plan was straightforward: sell our cabin in Boone and our long-term rental in Durham, combine those funds, and buy a historic triplex in Boothbay Harbor, Maine—mortgage-free. Except two weeks before closing, I discovered something called "mortgage boot" that completely upended our strategy and forced us to restructure everything. We went from planning to own a property without debt that would generate significant monthly income, to taking on a mortgage we hadn't anticipated and dramatically changing our financial projections. If we had been relying on that rental income for monthly expenses, this would have been a crisis. Thankfully we weren't, but it was still a wake-up call about how much I didn't know.In this episode, I walk through what a 1031 exchange actually is, the incredibly tight timeline you're working with (45 days to identify properties, 180 days to close), what qualifies as "like-kind property," and most importantly, what boot is and why mortgage boot specifically can derail your entire strategy if you're trying to simplify rather than expand. I also get honest about the privilege that allowed me to invest in real estate in the first place, my complex feelings about capital gains taxes and wealth redistribution, and why real estate investing appealed to me over traditional stock market investments after watching my mom save diligently for a retirement she never got to enjoy. Whether you're actively considering selling a cabin or investment property, curious about tax strategies, or just want to understand these financial tools better, this episode breaks it all down without the jargon—and hopefully saves you from making the same mistakes I almost made.Instagram: @cozyrockcabin Cozy Rock Cabin: https://staycozycabin.holidayfuture.com/listings/311027Cozy Camp Sebec: https://staycozycabin.holidayfuture.com/listings/311051 Cozy Rock Website: http://www.staycozycabin.com YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_FgMwAgvORd1IwlH1nlC9g
On this episode of This vs. That, we sit down with Brad Hambrick, pastor of counseling at the Summit Church in Durham, North Carolina, to discuss one of the most painful experiences a marriage can face: betrayal.We explore the tension between idealized expectations of quick healing and the reality that recovery requires an intentional, patient process. Brad shares why "rarely is the first story, the whole story" and how incomplete information at the beginning can derail restoration efforts. We discuss the importance of full disclosure versus discovery, and why marriages often die from "a death of a thousand confessions" rather than the initial betrayal itself.We examine the early stage work that must happen before forgiveness—gaining an accurate history of what occurred and assessing the unfaithful spouse's level of transparency and cooperation. Brad offers the profound insight that "there is as much hope for the marriage as there is honesty," helping us understand how to gauge realistic hope in the restoration process.Throughout our conversation, we address how helpers can better support those who've experienced betrayal, why the betrayed spouse is often the most neglected individual in these situations, and how God's character speaks to this devastating reality.-----You're going to love what our partner organization, Rode Leadership, is offering: the Pastor's Wives Cohort — an eight-week virtual experience designed to nourish, connect, and equip women in ministry.And just for our This Versus That listeners — there's a super early bird deal:Get 25% off the regular $375 registration with code RODESUPER — but only through December 4th.Craving connection?

Jon Herold spends this episode breaking down Paul Sperry's new investigative report suggesting that several of Trump's own appointees, including Barr, Durham, Pompeo, Bolton, and Haspel, may have helped shield or bury evidence that undermined the Obama-era intelligence assessment at the heart of Russiagate. Jon walks through the declassified documents, whistleblower claims, and House Intel findings that indicate the ICA relied on weak, misleading, or fabricated intelligence, and he highlights Derek Harvey's firsthand account of being blocked by CIA leadership during the review process. He questions Durham's decision to suppress a devastating 44-page report before the 2020 election, only for that material to go unused in Durham's final findings, and explores what this means for long-held assumptions about “white hats” inside the system. Jon also analyzes Trump's new Monroe Doctrine anniversary proclamation, digs into chat discussion, and reflects on how confirmation bias, hopium, and black-pilling affect the truth community's ability to navigate the ongoing information war.

N.T. Wright returns to the podcast for round three—no Malibu rooftop this time, but plenty of theological fireworks. We dig into Tom's new book on Ephesians, starting with why he thinks the scholarly consensus dismissing Pauline authorship is more about 19th-century German liberal Protestant hangover than good historical work. From there, we get into the real meat: Ephesians isn't answering the question "how do I get to heaven?" It's painting this massive cosmic picture of God's plan to unite heaven and earth in Christ—and the church's wild vocation to be what Tom calls "a small working model of new creation." We talk about how Western Christianity has shrunk Paul's vision into individual soul-sorting when the text is way more interested in what it looks like when formerly irreconcilable people come together as one new humanity. Tom pushes back on how both conservatives and liberals read their politics into the text, and we wrestle with the marriage passage in chapter 5 as the theological climax of the letter (not the culture war flashpoint we've made it). We close with a beautiful reflection on Ephesians 6 as an Advent text—the church holding the line between Christ's victory and his return. Plus, Tom's grandson sings in the New College Oxford choir, and honestly, that's the kind of intergenerational beauty Ephesians is pointing toward. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Prof. N.T. (Tom) Wright is Senior Research Fellow at Wycliffe Hall, Oxford University. He is one of the world's leading Bible scholars, with expertise in Ancient Judaism and Early Christianity, the New Testament, and Biblical Studies. He is also Emeritus Professor at the University of St. Andrews and the former Bishop of Durham.

What's the episode about? In this episode, hear Professor Douglas Davies on thedevelopment of death studies, ‘words against death', the ‘dividual', religion, ‘sacred secrets', the ‘opacity of the self' and the ‘curated everything', keeping a dream diaries since 1979, the over-optimism of posthumanism, wealth inequality, & the privilege of intellectuals as ‘people who think'.Who is Douglas? This introduction to Douglas Davies was written by DrGeorgina Robinson, who awarded Douglas with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2025 Death, dying and Disposal Conference in Utrecht, the Netherlands. Douglas Davies is a name known to all who work in theinterdisciplinary field of Death Studies. From early career scholars, fresh in the field, through to senior colleagues who have themselves deeply influenced the field, the stories that people tell of their experiences of Douglas are always warm and encouraging, yet unique to the individual: the time and careDouglas gives to all who encounter him is a true testament of his character. As a founding member of ASDS and editorial board member ofMortality Douglas has always offered a home to Death Studies scholars, having hosted numerous Death Studies events, including the International Conference onthe Social Context of Death, Dying, and Disposal and the inaugural International Symposium of the Death Online Research Network (DORS#1), as well as events for funerary professionals, including numerous Summer Schools of theNational Association of Funeral Directors. Alongside these external events, Douglas has also welcomedcountless students, researchers, and professional colleagues to Durham during his time as Director of Durham University's Centre for Death and Life Studies through visiting professorships, library scholarships to work in the Archivesof the Cremation Society of Great Britain, alongside conferences hosted by the Centre. What is unique about Douglas is that despite his countless works whichhave deeply influenced scholarly thinking within the field, more often than not, it is a conversation or engagement with him that sticks with Death Studies scholars: his kindness and encouraging nature are second-to-none. Nevertheless, the significant impact that his countlessworks have had – both academically and practically, with his work impacting policy changes and the funeral sector itself – must not be understated (e.g., Mors Britannica, 2015; Death, Ritual and Belief, 3 editions 1997, 2002, 2017;Natural Burial, 2012; A Brief History of Death, 2005; Theology of Death, 2008).

Her book End of Discussion: How the Left's Outrage Industry Shuts Down Debate, Manipulates Voters, and Makes America Less Free (and Fun) came out in 2015 but basically predicts the next decade. A “natural contrarian,” Ham came to conservatism at a time when culture (and her Durham hometown) was dominated by liberals. It's made her a rigorous and original thinker, clear-eyed and calm amid the political circus. She talks with Nancy and Sarah about why Trump isn't a conservative, how her faith helped her endure the death of her first husband, and how that experience shaped her perspective on Erika Kirk's role since her husband Charlie's assassination, when Ham found herself playing “widow defense.” We also talk the Trump-Mamdani summit, motherhood, and the utility of political commentary.Also discussed:* It's good to have a weirdo in the room.* Unintended lessons of a ‘90s public-school education* MKH early inspiration: Rachel Campos-Duffy from The Real World* “Politics is just not fun,” and yet…* What is conservatism? * What Obama and Trump have in common* The Russiagate delusion * Marjorie Taylor Greene folds* The Tetris movie: Go, capitalism! * “Charlie himself, as an example, was a bulwark against so many bad examples.”* Admiration for George W's post-presidential ride into the sunset* The radical efficiency of freaking people out* The hunger to find hypocrisy among people of faith* A sunnier portrait of motherhood* “God is good no matter what.”* The necessary solace of Jeremiah 29:11* Enthusiasm plus delusion is a very bad combination, and yes, we're looking at you, Candace Owens* Mary Katherine to Nancy: “Get lifting.”* Sarah “resisted Apple TV for a heroic amount of time.”Plus, Kelsea Ballerini wonders what she missed, the over-selling of freezing one's eggs, Usha Vance gives good advice, and much more!Thanksgiving is a day to be grateful.

SCTV's Dave Thomas talks about making bold life choices, growing up in Canada, Shakespeare saving his ass, choosing between big money success as an ad man or being a broke improviser at Second City, becoming head writer on SCTV, Martin Short, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, John Candy, Catherine O'Hara, Eugene Levy, Joe Flaherty, Andrea Martin, Grace Under Fire, running an animation studio, turning to dramas like Bones and The Black List, going to Ukraine, Thailand, Mad Magazine, The McKenzie Brothers, Chester Hope, and how, to make it in Hollywood, you need at least two of these three things, Talent, Drive, & Luck. Bio: David William Thomas was born May 20, 1949, in St. Catharines, Ontario. He is the eldest son of British parents, Moreen Duff Muir (May 4, 1928 – May 18, 2022), a church organist for thirty years originally from Glasgow, Scotland and composer of church music, and John E. Thomas (1926–1996), a medical ethicist from Merthyr Tydfil, Wales who was head of the Philosophy Department at McMaster University, and the author of several books. Dave's younger brother, Ian Thomas, is a Canadian singer-songwriter. The family moved temporarily to Durham, North Carolina, where his father attended Duke University and earned a PhD in philosophy. The family moved back to Dundas, Ontario, in 1961, where Dave attended Dundas District high school, and later graduated with an honours Bachelor of Arts degree in English literature from McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario.[1] Starting his career as a copywriter at ad agency McCann Erickson in 1974, Thomas became the head writer of the Coca-Cola account in Canada within a year. After watching a Second City stage show in Toronto, and while suffering from self-described "boredom" in his advertising work, he auditioned for the Second City troupe and was chosen as a performer.[2] He was a cast member of the Toronto production of Godspell, along with Victor Garber, Martin Short, Eugene Levy, Gilda Radner, and Andrea Martin.[3] Paul Shaffer was the musical director.[3 He first achieved fame as a cast member of the Canadian TV comedy series SCTV, joining Godspell castmates Levy, Martin and later Short, plus Rick Moranis, John Candy, Harold Ramis, Catherine O'Hara and others. Notable characters on the show include Doug McKenzie of beer-swilling brothers Bob and Doug McKenzie, editorialist Bill Needle, Scottish scone-chef/bluesman Angus Crock, motor-mouthed TV ad announcer Harvey K-Tel, Lowery organist/curio pitchman Tex Boil and the "Cruising Gourmet". Thomas's first film role was in Home to Stay, directed by Delbert Mann, in which Thomas played in a scene with Hollywood legend Henry Fonda. He then wrote, co-directed, and starred in the Bob & Doug McKenzie feature film Strange Brew. Soon after, he wrote for and acted in The New Show, produced by Lorne Michaels during his hiatus from Saturday Night Live. Short-lived, this show featured a powerhouse writing staff including Thomas along with Buck Henry, George Meyer, Jack Handey, Al Franken, Tom Davis, Valri Bromfield and Steve Martin. Thomas tried his hand at network television hour-long shows in 1986 when he wrote and co-executive produced Steel Collar Man for CBS. The pilot was produced but did not go to series. He co-wrote Spies Like Us (1985) with Dan Aykroyd. In 1988, Thomas wrote another hour long show for CBS, B Men, which was back ordered, but Thomas took a directing job at Paramount, which caused the network to drop the series. He reportedly introduced John Travolta and Kelly Preston while directing them in the Paramount film The Experts. He wrote for, produced, and starred in The Dave Thomas Comedy Show (1990). In 1991, he starred in the Showtime comedy, Public Enemy #2. In 1992, he tried his hand at reality TV and co-executive produced ABC's America's Funniest People with Vin Di Bona, but left after thirteen weeks to appear in the film Coneheads. In 1993, he co-starred in ABC's Grace Under Fire with Brett Butler and Tom Poston and continued with the show for 5 seasons. In 1995 Thomas starred in the ABC television film Picture Perfect with Mary Page Keller and Richard Karn. In 1995 Thomas produced a pilot of a game show called Family Challenge for ABC. When ABC did not pick up the series, Thomas sold Family Challenge to the Family Channel, where he produced 144 episodes of the show spread over 2 seasons. In 1996, Thomas played the title role in the Fox television film Mr. Foster's Field Trip aka Kidz in the Wood with Julia Duffy. In 1996, he wrote the book SCTV: Behind the Scenes (McClelland & Stewart, publishers). From 1999–2002, he voiced various roles on the animated series Mission Hill. Thomas co-starred in the Paramount feature Rat Race. As of 2001, Thomas has been the Executive Creative Director of Animax Entertainment, an animation studio based officially in Culver City, California. In 2001–2002 Thomas appeared with Eugene Levy and Martin Short on Short's show Primetime Glick as Bob Hope (an impression he had first developed for SCTV with great success). In 2002, he co-starred with Jason Priestley, Dave Foley, and Ewen Bremner in Fancy Dancing. The next year he played a lead role in Beethoven's 5th. In 2003, he directed a hospital comedy feature film entitled Whitecoats, which he also wrote. As of 2004, Thomas was on the official Advisory Committee for the Comedy program at Humber College, the only such diploma program in the world. In 2004, he and Moranis again worked together voicing Rutt and Tuke, two moose based on the McKenzie Brothers, in Disney's animated feature Brother Bear.[4] Thomas has had a long career doing voices for animation including Animaniacs, Duckman, CatDog, The Adventures of Tarzan, Justice League and multiple roles on The Simpsons, King of the Hill and Family Guy. In 2005, he had a guest stint as Charlize Theron's "Uncle Trevor" on Fox's Arrested Development. In 2006, he reprised his voice role in Brother Bear 2 and appeared as himself in the feature film The Aristocrats. He began production on ArnoldSpeaks.com, a video blog, as the voice of Arnold Schwarzenegger; Animax Entertainment won an Emmy for a broadband animated series produced for ESPN, Off Mikes. In 2007, Thomas and Rick Moranis reprised their roles as Bob and Doug McKenzie in a one-hour special, Bob & Doug McKenzie's Two-Four Anniversary, for CBC Television. The show featured cameos from McKenzie celeb fans like Ben Stiller, Dave Foley, Tom Green, Paul Shaffer, Andy Dick, Matt Groening, Barry Pepper, Martin Short, and Geddy Lee. Former Prime Minister of Canada Paul Martin was the host. In 2008, Thomas revived Bob and Doug McKenzie in a new animated series, Bob & Doug. While Thomas reprises the character of Doug in the new series, Moranis chose not to voice the character of Bob, which instead is voiced by Dave Coulier. Moranis is, however, involved in the series as an executive producer.[5] In November 2009, Thomas received an Honorary Doctor of Letters from his alma mater McMaster University and gave the fall convocation speech. In 2010 Animax continued to produce branded entertainment, advertising and digital shorts for corporations like Disney, Warner Brothers, NBC Universal, and Kodak. In 2011, Thomas's company Animax produced another animated show for MTV entitled Big Box along with numerous Internet shorts such as Life With Dad.[6][7] In 2012 and 2013 Thomas guest starred in the dramatic shows Perception and Bones as well as comedy shows Comedy Bang! Bang! and How I Met Your Mother. In addition in 2013 Thomas voiced the recurring role of Jeff Foxworthy's father Jesco in the CMT show Bounty Hunters. Thomas joined the writing staff of the Fox crime drama television series Bones beginning in 2013. Thomas worked for two seasons on Bones, writing several episodes and working on staff as consulting producer for two seasons.[8] In 2015 Thomas joined the writing staff of NBC's The Blacklist as a consulting producer. In 2020 life-sized statues of Thomas and Rick Moranis as their characters Bob and Doug McKenzie were put in place at the ICE District Sports Arena in Edmonton, Alberta.[9] Also in 2020, the Governor-General of Canada announced that Thomas was being appointed to the Order of Canada,[10] Canada's highest civilian award. In 2021, Thomas and Max Allan Collins teamed to write a sci-fi mystery novel, The Many Lives of Jimmy Leighton.

As allegiance to Jesus Christ spread across the Roman Empire in the second century, writings, practices, and ideas erupted in a creative maelstrom. Many of the patterns of practice and belief that later become normative emerged, in the midst of debate and argument with neighbours who shared or who rejected that allegiance. Authoritative texts, principles of argument, attitudes to received authority, the demands of allegiance in the face of opposition, identifying who belonged and who did not, all demanded attention. These essays explore those divergent voices, and the no-less diverse and lively debates they have inspired in recent scholarship. Judith M. Lieu is the author of Explorations in the Second Century: Texts, Groups, Ideas, Voices (Brill, 2025). She was Lady Margaret's Professor of Divinity at the University of Cambridge from 2007-2018. She studied at Durham and Birmingham Universities and previously taught at The Queen's College, Birmingham, King's College London (where she was Professor of New Testament Studies, 1999-2006), and Macquarie University, Sydney. From January 2020–June 2021 she was Frothingham Visiting Professor in New Testament and Early Christianity at Harvard Divinity School.

The last 5 minutes here are more tunes from the marimba band.] https://www.youtube.com/live/Dgw6mz5bTG4?si=xAr-fa0GvLwpT-pc This week, join us for a special live episode from the 2024 IAU General Assembly in Cape Town, South Africa, featuring black hole simulations expert Dr. Nicole Thomas and winner of the 2011 Nobel Prize for Physics Prof. Brian Schmidt. Cape Town born Dr. Nicole Thomas returns to The Cosmic Savannah four years after previously featuring in episodes 9 and 14 as a PhD student. She shares with us the story of her illustrious academic career around the world since then, including a postdoctoral research position in the UK at the Institute of Computational Cosmology, University of Durham and now a prestigious Jim Buckee Fellowship at the International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research, University of Western Australia. Nicole explains to us her latest research on using state-of-the-art supercomputer simulations to understanding the havoc that supermassive black holes wreak on galaxies. She does this by trying to model how the Universe works using our current understanding of physics and comparing her results to images of the real Universe taken with South Africa's MeerKAT telescope. She hints that she looks forward to applying these simulations to the findings of the upcoming SKA telescope! Next, Nobel Laureate Prof Brian Schmidt, a Distinguished Professor at the Australian National University joins the team on stage. Brian takes us back to the night of the 4th of October 2011 when he received a call from Sweden telling him he had won the Nobel Prize. Brian received the prize, alongside two other people, for having discovered the accelerating expansion of the Universe. He discusses what life has been like after such a monumental achievement, including his experiences as Vice-Chancellor of the Australian National University. Finally, he tells us about his plans to get back to doing research and reveals what he thinks the next big astrophysical breakthroughs will be using the SKA telescope under construction in South Africa and Australia.

Jared is coming to you from Durham, NC for another gloriously petty Ticked Off Tuesday, and he's got thoughts about “former bank” hotels, mysterious staff-only Wi-Fi, rogue outlets, and the front desk guy who hit him with the dreaded “you look familiar.” Between burps, coffees, and Bonvoy vs. Hilton debates, he breaks down life on the road and why all he wants is a cute, functional room where he doesn't have to move furniture just to charge his laptop. Then it's on to listener complaints: a cursed U-Haul mirror box order that vanishes into the ether, a nightmare flight seated next to the world's greasiest seatmate, and someone finally saying what we're all thinking about pumpkin spice lattes (liquid fall-flavored disappointment). Along the way, Jared dishes on his upcoming tour stops in Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Royal Oak, Columbus, Orlando, San Diego for New Year's, and Philly, and why you need a night of laughs away from your family this holiday season.
