On Nov. 7, mobs of Dutch soccer fans rampaged through central Amsterdam beating up Israeli and Jewish tourists there to see the Maccabi Tel Aviv team play. The outbreak of violence happened on the eve of the 86th anniversary of Kristallnacht, when organized gangs of Nazi soldiers in Germany and occupied Austria targeted Jewish businesses, torched synagogues and sent 20,000 Jewish men to concentration camps. Video of the Dutch attacks prompted some world leaders to describe the night as a “pogrom”. In hindsight, however, the mayor of Amsterdam is now backtracking on using the word “pogrom”, saying the word has been weaponized to score political points. And while her comments have angered many Jewish leaders in the Netherlands, at least two of them agree that the horrific comparison is an overstatement. On today's episode of The CJN Daily, you'll hear why. Dave Heilbron, the Dutch-Canadian leader of a pro-Israel lobby organization based in Amsterdam, and Annet Betsalel, a Dutch filmmaker and Holocaust educator in the small town of Bussum, both join the show to discuss what Jewish life in the Netherlands has been like over the past couple of weeks. They say while calling the attacks a pogrom may be exaggeration, Dutch Jews are still nervous about more antisemitic attacks, costly security bills and rising anti-Jewish hatred across the political spectrum in Europe.

Today we take a deep dive into the Amsterdam Jew Hunt that went down last Thursday night and into the early morning hours of Friday. That it happened in Amsterdam should surprise no one. That there will almost certainly be copycat Jew hunts in Europe and elsewhere should also surprise no one. That young Muslim men and perhaps slightly older taxi drivers planned and coordinated this pogrom on various chat platforms should also not surprise anyone. Although it did seem to catch the Amsterdam police off guard—in spite of several advance warnings from Israeli securityservices. In this special podcast State of Tel Aviv speaks in depth with three very different people, each bringing profound insight and knowledge to this critical historical moment. Pieter Dorsman is a Dutch-Canadian businessman and blogger who has lived in Vancouver for decades now but grew up in the Netherlands. He happened to be visiting family near Rotterdam when this attack occurred. We start with him and then speak with David De Bruijn, Professor of Philosophy at Auburn University in Alabama. A native son of The Hague, De Bruijn pulls no punches when discussing the “polite” antisemitism among the more traditional Dutch—and the very explicit, vulgar form of Jew hatred that prevails among Muslims in the country, many of whom are second, third, or fourth generation. These violent antisemites are not “new immigrants” as much of the media has erroneously portrayed them. Lastly, we speak with Eitam Zach, a young Israeli man who has lived in the Netherlands for almost six years now and is very spooked by how life has changed since October 7. And by this latest madness. Throughout this podcast we get into European sport culture, how the Holocaust is ever-present in the minds of Dutch Jews, and how the restrained, “tolerant” Dutch people have managed and mismanaged the integration of so many Muslim immigrants over the decades.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE: Lisette and I are both romantics when it comes to the Church, despite having experienced church abuse at the hands of narcissistic leadership. This week, we discuss the signs of a narcissistic leader, what happens when you call out church abuse, and how to spot narcissistic tendencies in yourself. If you have experienced church abuse, this might be a difficult episode to listen to -- or it might be a healing one. Always feel free to reach out at heather@womeninyouthministry.com to discuss and for support. DISCLAIMER: This podcast episode jumpstarts with an appreciation for Lizzo, her music, and the way she empowers women. Ironically, the day after we recorded this, allegations about Lizzo came out. Hostile work environments happen everywhere. No person or organization is immune, no matter how "safe" they market themselves as. We don't know the details of this situation, but none of us should be surprised if any or all of it is true. In fact, we should be cautious: that any power we are given — in management, in privilege, in parenting, or in any relationship — is not to be taken lightly. That we are no better than those we lead. That we have to rely on checks and balances, because any of us are capable of abusing power. And that is what this episode is about. ABOUT LISETTE: I'm a Dutch-Canadian living in the US. I love young people (once a youth pastor always a youth pastor, I believe in the local church (as flawed as it may be), I think there is a ton of hope, I'm thrilled that things have to change, it's about time!

What does Neo-Calvinism applied look like? 84 years of insight Today we sit down with Jan Boer, an 84 year old Dutch/Canadian who is a translator of Kuyper, student of Evan H. Runner, and a missionary in Nigeria for over 30 years where neo-Calvinism was no theoretical exercise, but a world-and-life-view applied in the day-to-day of everyday life. Of neo-Calvinist philosophers, political theorists, and cultural commentators there are no end, but rare is the neo-Calvinist missionary and practioner who labor in planting and watering the seeds of the holistic Gospel, and then walk with them as they face draught as well as yield fruit – and that is what we have in Jan Boer. Upon returning to North America after decades in Nigeria, and seeing the folly that makes up so much Christianity today, Jan's is a voice we modern's need to hear and heed. Listen in as we discuss: - Studying under Evan H. Runner - Translating Abraham Kuyper (including many of his devotional work) - The wholistic Gospel vs the bifurcated message - Applying Kuyperian thought in Nigeria to issues like roads and bridges, water pumps, polygamy, church, and every square inch of village life - The CRC, the fact that we neo-Calvinists no longer create institutions, and the fact that “We produce nothing new.” And more…

On Aug. 8, 2021, officials in Edmonton unveiled the first sculpture of Anne Frank anywhere in Canada. The world's newest memorial to her—a life-sized bronze sculpture gifted by a Dutch-Canadian group based in Alberta—now sits in a park in Edmonton. It's is a replica of one that stands in Utrecht, Netherlands. The unveiling marks the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Holland in the Second World War, and gives thanks to the Canadian soldiers who freed their country from Nazi Germany in 1945. But there's a second meaning behind the timing—and it's a strange coincidence. On this weekend, 77 years ago, Nazis raided the secret annex in Amsterdam where Frank and her family had been hiding for nearly two years and arrested them. A few days later, they were sent to the Westerbork transit camp, and later they would be shipped to Auschwitz. Today, we'll hear from the people who pushed for the statue and raised $75,000 to create and erect it, and we're joined by Gillian Horwitz, who runs Holocaust programming for the Jewish Federation of Edmonton, and Steve Shafir, the federation's president, who were at the unveiling ceremony in person.

April 26, 2021 | The Hockey Betting Podcast Move over, Doctor Detroit; Professor Cam Stewart, an equally snappy dresser, is muscling in on your turf with "Mr. Reality" Brian Blessing on the April 26, 2021 episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast. Now, let's chew the fat. Vancouver and Dallas are still haunting the standings with games in hand as the playoffs approach. By not taking care of business, Montreal is helping keep the North division interesting. Can Calgary pick up where Montreal has left off? Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast for all of Brian and Cam's situational betting angles, NHL picks predictions, and some laughs along the way. Monday, April 26, 2021 NHL Betting Lines, Analysis, Picks Vancouver Canucks at Ottawa Senators The Vancouver Canucks seem more vulnerable than ever to Ottawa's strong work ethic, but managed to rebound with a 4-2 win on Saturday behind 26 saves from Braden Holtby. Ottawa goaltender Matt Murray's injury in the weekend clash is helping cast Vancouver as a (-125) favourite when the North Division series continues at Canadian Tire Centre on Monday. Hear the guys discuss this NHL match-up when you listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast. Dallas Stars at Carolina Hurricanes At a glance, the Dallas Stars (+108) have more to play for than the Carolina Hurricanes, who can easily coast into the playoffs. But a logjam atop the Central Division ensures that any contender to suffer a slump could finish well within the divisional pack and hamper its Stanley Cup chances. Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast for all of Brian and Cam's NHL betting insights, odds analysis, and free NHL picks Edmonton Oilers at Winnipeg Jets Dwindling (6) and (5.5) O/U totals on Edmonton at Winnipeg reflect what happened last time the rivals met, a 3-0 victory for the Oilers in which McDavid and Draisaitl waited until the 3rd period to take over. Hear the guys hash out their predictions on this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast. Florida Panthers at Nashville Predators The guys take a look at a goal total that shrunk from (6.5) to (5.5) before handles took hold in Las Vegas. What do bookmakers see that could impact the Predators chances to win for a 1-to-1 host money line? Hear the guys discuss this NHL match-up on this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast. Montreal Canadiens at Calgary Flames Montreal faces a potentially protracted slump as oddsmakers starts to believe in Calgary (-130) in the playoff race despite the Habs' four-point edge. Listen to Brian and Cam discuss their perspectives on this NHL game on this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast. Anaheim Ducks at Los Angeles Kings The L.A. Kings (-160) whipped Anaheim 4-1 in the clubs' recent faceoff, but the ailing Kings have lost two in a row since then, and a third-straight defeat could put L.A. too far behind to make a run in the West Division. Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast to hear the conversation on this NHL match-up. Arizona Coyotes at San Jose Sharks Devilish disrespect from betting books! The San Jose Sharks have lost a miserable, malodorous eight hockey games in a row, and Monday's visiting Arizona Coyotes are technically a top-half NHL team. Nevertheless, the Coyotes are only a (-115) favourite to avoid the ignominy of a San Jose win. Hear the guys consider the situational betting angles on this NHL match-up on this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast. Colorado Avalanche at St. Louis Blues Descriptions of Ryan O' Reilly's hat tricks in clutch scenarios are starting to feel like a broken record. The dynamic veteran's latest three-goal party came at the expense of the powerful Colorado Avalanche on Saturday, but gamblers are skeptical that the St. Louis Blues (+140) can upset the Avs twice in a row. Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast for all of Brian and Cam's betting insights, handicapping angles, and hockey humour. Tuesday, April 27, 2021 NHL Betting Lines, Analysis, Picks Boston Bruins at Pittsburgh Penguins Pittsburgh's goal totals with New Jersey have gotten outrageous, but a steady (5.5) total on Tuesday's Pens vs Bruins battle reflects respect for Boston's netminding and gap control. Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast to hear the guys' opinions on this NHL match-up. Buffalo Sabres at New York Rangers  The Buffalo Sabres are yet again a big fat underdog at (+230) money line odds against the host New York Rangers. But a falling (6) O/U goal total shows that Cam's angles on Buffalo's coaching and goaltending could be catching on. Hear the guys hash out their picks predictions on this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast. Detroit Red Wings at Columbus Blue Jackets Money line odds of only (-145) on favoured Columbus may seem disrespectful to the Blue Jackets. Last week's Detroit-over-Dallas blowout showed what happens when NHL clubs - or odds makers - take the Red Wings lightly. Will the Doctor be IN for this game, or will he be wearing a blue jacket for this NHL match-up? Hear the guys talk about the betting angles for this NHL match-up on this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast. New York Islanders at Washington Capitals The Islanders (+100) finally found some scoring on Saturday, but lost to the Washington Capitals by three goals, giving up two tallies to Dutch-Canadian forward Daniel Sprong. Are the Caps priced cheaply at (-120) while dominating the current series? Tune in to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast for all of Brian and Cam's NHL betting insights and predictions.  Philadelphia Flyers at New Jersey Devils Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast for Brian and Cam's Flyers Devils discussion. Florida Panthers at Nashville Predators The O/U line for Predators vs Panthers on Tuesday is again sitting at (5.5) total goals, but without the wild line-shift that marked Monday's early bets. Hear the guys discuss their considerations on this NHL game on this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast. Tampa Bay Lightning at Chicago Blackhawks Another line jumps soon after unveiling as Tampa Bay proves a popular (-220) favourite to dismiss downtrodden Chicago on the road. Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast and hear how the guys are handicapping this NHL game. Carolina Hurricanes at Dallas Stars Early odds remain at a standstill with Dallas a (+110) underdog. Where do Cam Stewart and Brian Blessing see the sharp action going on this faceoff? Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast. Wednesday, April 28, 2021 NHL Betting Lines, Analysis, Picks The guys turn to Wednesday and discuss which teams are already thinking about the beach and the golf course. Not every team has the Steve Yzerman work ethic, but the guys debate which teams and players are hustling to the finish line regardless of their playoff chances. Brian and Cam give themselves a pat on the back as they hustle toward the playoffs, even without a KitKat sponsorship for themselves. Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast for all of Brian and Cam's NHL betting sense, picks predictions, and good times. Vancouver Canucks at Ottawa Senators St. Louis Blues, at Minnesota Wild Toronto Maple Leafs at Montreal Canadiens Edmonton Oilers at Winnipeg Jets Colorado Avalanche at Vegas Golden Knights Anaheim Ducks at Los Angeles Kings Arizona Coyotes at San Jose Sharks Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast for all of Brian and Cam's NHL picks predictions, hockey betting insights, and some entertainment.

We sat down with Maya Motoi, an unschooled half “Japanese” half Dutch "Canadian" person who is queer, an anarchist, and a feminist who currently lives in Japan. We heard their story about moving solo from Japan to Vancouver at age 13, nerded out about Japanese culture, specifically animation, and the radical alternatives in Japan. The importance of  listening to your gut, being present with all the beauty, and picking the right “fruit!” We dove into  the intersections of work, social justice, sitting in the discomfort, and finding ways to thrive together in a capitalist world. “I’ve always been a really big fan of listening to other peoples stories” - Maya Motoi

Shocked & sad to hear recently the passing of two fine musicians, Charles Thaxton & Gert Van Santen, who have graced our genre in electronic music over the years. Charles known as Char-el, was a California based synthesist and keyboardist/composer, performing in many bands and solo concerts for over 40 years, mixing in the progressive rock/symphonic new age territory. Gert Van Santen was a member of Wave World, a Dutch/Canadian multimedia project attracting quite a lot of attention for its fascinating music and enchanting shows. During live performances, their impressive music was blended with computer-generated graphics of a virtual world, projected on huge screens, both these musicians were very likable, creative human beings, with the legacy of their music, which will live on in our hearts & minds. You will hear on this edition, Andy Pickford’s new release Biosphere, which has a very filmic feel, full of strong rhythms, sequences, melodies, and symphonic themes. Syngate presents Colin Rayment’s new album FRB, stands for Fast Radio Bursts, only recently discovered very unusual repeating signals from distant galaxies.. London based electronic act Echaskech, a unique and compelling amalgamation of sound. Tangram, music & name obviously points a finger in the Tangerine Dream direction. Ambient soundscapes from Massergy, are created entirely outdoors within a nature preserve, creating colorful and melodic arrangements, featuring deep bass tones, swirling textures and expressive improvisation. Two collaborations with Michael Bruckner on ’Polar Vortex’ with Mathias Grassow a master of dark ambient & drone music & Volker Lankow, Berlin based percussionist on ‘Monsoon Offerings’. Vidna Obmana’s re-release of Landscape In Obscurity, a long exploratory driftscape, integrating spacious and atmospheric performances on flute and saxophone. The slow and drifting peaceful ambient soundscapes from Bing Satellites, with many more engaging sounds to create an atmosphere beyond the norm of accessible popular music.

I think the Internet has done certain things to communication that are not desirable and twenty years ago I started working on something called an attentive user interface which is now in the iPhone 10. This idea that you can't consume the user's attention forever and think that there's no consequence. You need a filter. You need to filter messages coming in who who get a notification from who do not get a notification from [Inaudible] things like like [Inaudible] Right! And so I think the problem. The real problem with the Internet is that it doesn't have filters anymore. So I perceive future we just had a stack of digital paper it's like it's in a paper and you can have as many as you want twenty twenty documents or something like that and you can either use them to render one key document or you have different apps on them.
