On December 27th 2010, Georgia State Trooper First Class Chadwick LeCroy pulled over a car with a broken taillight on Bolton Road in northwest Atlanta. It should have been routine. Instead, it became the first fatal shooting of a Georgia trooper in thirty-five years.The man behind the wheel was Gregory Favors, a thirty-year-old career criminal with eighteen prior arrests stretching back to 1998. He'd been convicted of drug charges, weapons violations, forgery, and obstruction. He was on active probation in Cobb County. And he should have been in prison. This episode digs into everything that went wrong before that night. The rocket docket system that fast-tracked felonies and handed out lenient sentences to clear overcrowded jails. The July hearing where a prosecutor asked for four years and a judge gave sixty days. The December thirteenth release when no officer showed up to testify and a known flight risk walked free on a signature bond. The missed court appearance the morning of the murder that should have triggered a bench warrant. We examine the finger-pointing between District Attorney Paul Howard, Mayor Kasim Reed, APD Chief George Turner, and Chief Judge Cynthia Wright. We look at the failed push for Chad's Law and the reforms that came too little, too late.And we remember the man behind badge 744, the trooper who spent his whole life dreaming of wearing the uniform and finally got his chance at thirty-six years old.This is the story of a death that didn't have to happen.
In this episode I host a dialogue between Buddhist teacher and doctor of Tibetan Medicine Dr Nida Chenagtsang and adult psychiatrist and family and systemic psychotherapist Dr Caroline Van Damme. Drs Nida and Caroline reflect on a half decade of collaboration in which they have explored the meeting of Western psychology and psychiatry with Tibetan medical and Buddhist models. They discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each others' systems, consider placebo as an explanatory mechanism for traditional health systems, question the benefits of an over-therapised culture, and contrast Tibetan and European approaches to knowledge. Drs Nida and Caroline also discuss the role of traditional ideas of spirit possession in today's clinical contexts, share anecdotes of exorcisms and psychosis, and offer their best insights and techniques to truly nurture the mind. … Link in bio.

Why does your spouse get to want things while you're drowning in responsibility? That resentment you feel watching your partner pursue hobbies while you manage everything isn't petty—it reveals what Tony identifies as one of the "fundamental wounds" in modern marriages: the split between duty and desire. Through the story of Sarah and Michael—a couple weeks from divorce—Tony explores how one partner can become a pure, exhausting obligation while the other escapes into hollow pleasures. Both are starving for what the other has, but neither can see it. You'll discover why the "serpent's trick" convinces us that what we want and what we should do are enemies when they were always meant to work together. In this episode, you'll learn: Why feeling like "a machine that keeps everyone running" signals you've lost connection to your own desires—and why reclaiming them is actually part of your duty as a parent and partner The difference between discipline that crushes your soul and discipline that creates freedom (hint: it depends on whether it's aligned with your actual values or just "socially compliant goals") How asking "what can I do to help?" often puts the mental load right back on your overwhelmed spouse. Why Michael's gaming and biking felt hollow even though Sarah assumed he was "living his best life." The concept of impermanence—and why accepting that your beliefs will evolve is liberating, not threatening Tony Overbay, LMFT, draws from over 20 years of couples therapy and 1,500+ couples to share the exact framework that helped Sarah and Michael move from combat to connection.

This one is personal because I knew and worked alongside Trooper Chadwick LeCroy when I was an Atlanta Police Officer. Chad and I served together in Zone 2, and later I had the privilege of working with him when he joined the elite Georgia State Patrol Nighthawks DUI Task Force. He was one of the good ones – the kind of officer you wanted backing you up, the kind of man who made the badge mean something. On December 27th, 2010, Chad was murdered during what should have been a routine traffic stop. He pulled over a broken taillight on Bolton Road in northwest Atlanta. The driver was Gregory Favors, a thirty-year-old career criminal with eighteen prior arrests and ten felony convictions. Favors fled, crashed his car, and when Chad approached on foot – without drawing his weapon – Favors fired three shots through the passenger window. One bullet struck Chad in the neck. He died in the ambulance on the way to Grady Memorial Hospital. But here's what makes this case so infuriating: Gregory Favors should have been locked up. He'd been arrested just seventeen days earlier and was out on a nineteen-thousand-dollar bond despite pretrial services recommending he be held without bail. Three times in 2010, the system said he was too dangerous to release. Three times, judges ignored those recommendations. On the morning Chad was killed, Favors missed his court hearing. He should have been in jail, but instead he was free to murder a good man. The investigation was swift – dashboard camera footage captured everything. Favors stole Chad's patrol car, dumped it on Gun Club Road, and was arrested by Atlanta PD officers. After nearly four years of legal proceedings, he pleaded guilty to avoid the death penalty and received life without parole plus fifty-five years.Chad LeCroy was the first Georgia State Trooper killed by gunfire in thirty-five years. He left behind his wife Keisha, sons Bret and Chase, and a law enforcement family that still feels his loss. A bridge over the Chattahoochee River now bears his name, and a scholarship in his memory helps new troopers get their education.This is the story of how system failures cost a hero his life, and why there really are no such things as "routine" traffic stops.In memory of Trooper First Class Chadwick Thomas LeCroy, Badge #744. End of watch: December 27, 2010.
In this episode, I'll talk about one of the most painful sexual dynamics I see in marriages: when a wife has been self-betraying for years by having sex she doesn't want, while her husband still feels unsatisfied. I'll explain why orgasms aren't the same thing as satisfaction, and how duty sex can actually block the connection both partners are craving. I'll unpack how this pattern creates deep resentment for her, confusion for him, and eventually a crisis point that forces the relationship to change. I'll also share what real repair can look like, how couples can move from obligation to genuine desire, and why quality and connection matter far more than frequency. This episode will be especially helpful for anyone who feels stuck in a painful sexual stalemate and wants clarity on what's really going wrong and what healing could look like.
As Trump surges his Gestapo and threatens to annex new territory, his brain is collapsing. He's sundowning on Truth Social, nodding off in meetings, slurring words, slurping at the saliva pooling in his mouth. His insults and aggressions are as constant and predictable as his arms are, reaching out for handholds. Up until this point, discourse on the mental health of this decrepit fascist leader has used the kid gloves of psychology, psychoanalysis, and psychiatry, in which even the most informed analyses were constrained by the fact that experts were interpreting his inner states. For our part, we've compared his fate to that of charismatic cult leaders at the end of the line—and we'll do more of that today. Now a new posse of clinical commentators on IG and TikTok have made it all much more biological: we are witnessing, they say, the predictable signs of fast-progressing dementia.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Leslie R Schover, author of the book Fission. Leslie is a clinical psychologist and brings her knowledge of people and relationships to her fiction writing. She spent most of her career at the Cleveland Clinic and the M. D. Anderson Cancer Center. She published three self-help books and created a digital health company to educate people with cancer about sex and fertility. Will2Love.com won a 2019 Innovation Prize in the Astellas C 3 Changing Cancer Care contest. Her first published novel, Fission: A Novel of Atomic Heartbreak draws on her parents' stories of Oak Ridge during the Manhattan Project and on revelations of Soviet spies there. She lives in Houston, Texas with her faithful dog, Luc. In my book review, I stated that Fission is a wonderful historical fiction. Although set during WWII, this book takes place completely within the United States as we follow Doris and her husband Rob to Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Doris' husband is tapped to work on the Manhattan Project, a top-secret program to create the first atomic bomb. As a reluctant young mother and bride, Doris first has to decide if she will move to Oak Ridge or continue her education. When she finally moves to Oak Ridge, she has to figure out her place in a world very different from Chicago. Will being Jewish be something to overcome? Will her husband's lack of education stop him from advancing? Will Doris figure out her role as wife and mother? What will she do when romance comes knocking - and not from her husband? I was excited to learn this story is based loosely on Leslie's parents, which gives an emotional edge to the characters - and you know how I love a good character! This is a must-read book that will give you an insider's look at The Manhattan Project and how it affected not just the scientists, but all who lived and worked in Oak Ridge.

When the disruptive power of Artificial Intelligence is discussed, the fate of the radiologist is often the cautionary tale: a specialist whose job is supposedly obsolete. In fact, the opposite is true. We face a severe global shortage of medical imaging specialists, worsened by a 10% annual increase in studies. Not to mention burnout, as specialists have to interpret more than one image per second just to keep up. AI is emerging not as a threat, but as a critical complement. AI is poised to offer opportunities beyond better diagnosis and access to care. Join us as we explore the future of diagnostic imaging with our guest, Dr. Akshay Chaudhari, Assistant Professor of Radiology and Biomedical Data Science at Stanford, and the co-founder of Cognita Imaging, a pioneering clinical AI company.

Preparing the Bride - Learning the balance of activity and intimacy. Message from Sunday January 18th.
This is a Q&A session from the Soul Searchers Retreat. Acharya das delivers a comprehensive discussion on spiritual life versus material life, emphasizing the fundamental distinction between material consciousness (identifying with the physical body) and spiritual consciousness (recognizing oneself as an eternal spiritual being). He explains that material life is founded on the belief that "I am material," while spirituality recognizes "I'm an eternal spiritual being." A wide range of topics were addressed (as you can see from the chapters listed below) including the concept of karma yoga which was introduced as a process of integrating life activities with spiritual practice by offering all actions as service to a higher spiritual reality. **************************************CHAPTERS 00:00 Distinguishing Material and Spiritual Life02:39 The Concept of Karma Yoga 04:09 The Bhagavad Gita: Arjuna's Dilemma05:42 Arjuna's Breakdown and Krishna's Response08:24 Krishna's Teaching on Duty and Nature09:46 The Radical Teaching of Spiritual Action11:23 The Lesson of Utilizing Our Tools12:42 The Fundamental Shift in Consciousness14:06 Two Schools of Thought: Traditional vs. Advaita15:43 Critique of the "I Am God" Philosophy17:05 Qualitative Oneness vs. Quantitative Difference18:31 The Complete Whole Principle21:40 The Appeal of False God-Realization22:58 Three Aspects of Self-Realization23:56 The Inevitable Fall from Impersonal Realization25:37 Three Features of the Absolute Truth27:30 The Nature of Transcendental Connection29:40 Comparing Levels of Transcendental Happiness31:27 Rejection of Blind Faith32:42 The Problem of Consciousness Filters33:26 Indescribable Spiritual Delights34:52 The Importance of Questioning35:46 Proper vs. Improper Questioning37:07 The Problem of False Self-Importance39:32 Three Authorities in Vedic System41:00 Internal Spiritual Guidance43:17 Alignment of Spiritual Authorities45:13 Universal Accessibility of Spiritual Realization46:19 Divine Assistance for Sincere Seekers48:05 Recognition of Spiritual Truth49:30 Encouragement and Final Thoughts50:35 Kirtan Meditation**************************************

A simple prayer can reset a life and reframe a nation's direction, and that's where we begin—asking for blessing as stewardship, God's hand as guidance, and protection from evil that harms neither us nor our neighbors. From there, we press into a stark historical reading from Pope Pius XI that unmasks how destructive ideologies often arrive dressed as peace and charity, and why prayer and penance remain powerful, practical tools for discernment. This is not nostalgia; it's a call to see clearly and live honestly.We move through the poetry of Song of Songs, where love stands as strong as death and refuses to be bought, and into Matthew 16, where Jesus asks the most searching question: “Who do you say I am?” Peter's confession, the promise that the gates of hell will not prevail, and the hard turn toward the cross challenge our appetite for comfort over obedience. The Transfiguration confirms the path—glory is real, but it comes through listening and trust. Along the way, the Psalms lift our eyes to God's strength and unfailing love, while Proverbs warns how flattering lies steer hearts toward ruin. Together they form a pattern for a resilient spiritual life: pray boldly, guard your heart, embrace sacrifice, and speak with wisdom.We also honor Chief Gunner's Mate George F. Brady, a Medal of Honor sailor whose grit under fire saved his ship. His story reminds us that character—quiet, costly, steady—builds the kind of culture we say we want. If you care about faith that thinks, history that warns, and courage that acts, you'll find practical encouragement here and a few anchors for the week ahead.If this resonated, share it with a friend, subscribe for future episodes, and leave a review to help others find the show.

Traci sits down with Chris Hamilton, a benefits consultant who specializes in helping employers cut through the noise of rising healthcare costs, to dig into what's really driving the hardest insurance market in 15 years. If you sat through open enrollment this year wondering why insurance premiums jumped 20% when you thought it would be single digits, this episode reveals why—and what you can actually do about it.Chris walks through the misaligned incentives that make traditional insurance companies profit when your costs rise, exposes waste hiding in your current plan (like medications available for $300 being charged at $1,000), and breaks down why Wells Fargo and Johnson & Johnson ended up in fiduciary duty lawsuits over benefits decisions. But the real value is the concrete timeline and strategy for what to do starting this month—not waiting until August—to completely reshape your 2026 renewal and actually improve coverage while reducing costs.Contact Information:Connect with Chris Hamilton: Website | LinkedIn | YouTube | The Insider PlaybookConnect with Traci here: https://linktr.ee/HRTraciDisclaimer: Thoughts, opinions, and statements made on this podcast are not a reflection of the thoughts, opinions, and statements of the Company by whom Traci Chernoff is actively employed.Please note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products or services.

Night duty on a military base is supposed to be predictable—quiet hallways, locked rooms, and long stretches of waiting between roll calls. For a federal police officer stationed at Fort Shafter in Hawaii, that routine slowly began to unravel after midnight.At first, it seemed harmless: sitting down to rest between shifts, closing a door, trying to sleep for a few minutes before the next assignment. But certain rooms didn't behave the same way after dark. Each time he dozed off, he woke to the same terrifying realization—his body wouldn't respond, and he wasn't alone.The figures he encountered weren't vague shadows. They appeared clearly, dressed in uniforms that felt out of place for both the base and the time period. Some were aggressive. Others simply watched. And one detail stood out above all else: the encounters didn't stay confined to a single room. Whatever was happening followed him from building to building, always late at night, always when no one else was around.#RealGhostStoriesOnline #TrueGhostStory #MilitaryParanormal #HauntedBase #NightShiftEncounters #UnexplainedExperience #SleepParalysisOrSomethingElse #HawaiiHauntings #ParanormalPodcast #TrueParanormalLove real ghost stories?

FAITH IS… with Pastor Rick Stevens – Many struggle to trust God, fearing He stands ready to condemn. The good news declares God is for us, not against us. Holy Communion anchors that trust, offering mercy and grace. In weary seasons, small acts of discipline, faithful community, and regular communion renew confidence, strengthen hearts, and remind believers they rest in God's enduring loyalty...

Peaches opens with congratulations—and a warning—to newly selected Air Force Chiefs: the stripe isn't a finish line, it's a daily obligation. From there, he breaks down recent uniform and PT updates, why fitness standards exist beyond checklists, and how preparedness matters even in “non-combat” roles. The episode closes with a nuanced take on recruiting content—why dunking on recruiters misses the point, but accuracy still matters, especially when misinformation creates false expectations for candidates.

Guest: Ronald White. Returning to duty, Chamberlain led a frontal assault at Petersburg in 1864, where he suffered a catastrophic wound through the hips that surgeons deemed fatal. Believing he was dying, he wrote a farewell letter to Fanny, yet miraculously survived due to his brother Tom's help and sheer will. Later, at the Battle of Five Forks, he defended General Warren against General Sheridan's dismissal. At the war's end, Chamberlain was selected to receive the Confederate surrender at Appomattox. In a controversial but defining gesture, he ordered a marching salute to honor the courage of the defeated Southern soldiers.1863 GETTYSBURG
By Bart Bornhorst - Fulfilling our various duties in life is very important. Even of more importance is fulfilling our God given duties, and God clearly defines his duty for His people in Micah 6. Let's see what God is looking for from us.
In this episode, Samantha and Nick examine a wrongful death lawsuit stemming from a non-transport decision—a case that highlights how quickly routine calls can turn into high-stakes legal events. The discussion centers on the death of a 26-year-old man with type 1 diabetes and a seizure disorder who requested transport, was left at home, and was later found deceased. Using the language of the actual court complaint, the episode explores the legal concept of public trust in EMS and what happens when that trust is alleged to be broken.From a leadership and risk-management perspective, the episode dissects the duty to assess, document, and transport—or properly refuse. The hosts examine how documentation choices (“canceled – no patient found”), failure to contact medical control, and leaving a high-risk patient alone can dramatically shift the legal narrative. Particular attention is given to supervisory actions after the call, including how complaint handling, recorded phone conversations, and well-intentioned but poorly worded statements can unintentionally strengthen a plaintiff's case.The conversation also breaks down the legal mechanics of the lawsuit itself, including wrongful death, survivorship, and loss of consortium claims, as well as why a seemingly multimillion-dollar case may settle for far less. Throughout the episode, the emphasis remains on defensible decision-making, understanding administrative and civil liability exposure, and how EMS professionals can protect both patients and their licenses by aligning clinical judgment with documentation and protocol.Key takeawaysNon-transport decisions carry legal weight: Refusing or discouraging transport in high-risk patients invites scrutiny.Documentation is your primary defense: “Canceled – no patient found” is nearly indefensible when patient contact occurred.Duty to assess does not end at the door: Seizure risk, diabetes, and being left alone matter legally and clinically.Medical control can help: Early physician involvement can shift responsibility and improve outcomes.Supervisors must handle complaints carefully: Poorly phrased responses can become admissions of fault.Assume you are being recorded: Phone calls, body cams, and bystanders can all end up in evidence.Do the right thing and write it down: Defensible care starts with sound clinical judgment and ends with accurate documentation.

Ben Rodgers sits down with Baxter Fire Chief Matt White, a Cookeville native who has spent 37 years in emergency services after unexpectedly falling into the field he now loves. Matt shares how growing up in a family of EMTs—and a push from his older brother—led him from working as a mechanic and in a body parts store to volunteering with Putnam County and eventually going full-time in the fire service in 1990. He reflects on how much Cookeville and Baxter have grown, the challenges of staffing a young full-time fire department with just three full-time employees, and the nationwide decline in volunteer firefighters. Matt also talks about the department's 17 current volunteers, the city's growing pains, and his hope to see a second full-time station built in Baxter before he retires. It's an insightful look at dedication, community service, and the future of public safety in a rapidly growing town. Listen To The Local Matters Podcast Today! News Talk 94.1
The war is not over because the evil we are fighting still is a threat; we just chose, time and again, to look away from it, and we can no longer do that. Standing back in IDF reserve duty in the Judean Hills, I'm reminded of the 35 Palmach fighters murdered here in 1948, proof that this same murderous ideology has stalked us for generations, changing slogans but never its purpose.Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMvFollow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelowJoin our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulseFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=enPulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetworkVisit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/

Smoke in your lungs, fire at your back, and a decision you can't postpone: run or turn around and help. That's where our conversation goes when a Marine walks us through an Osprey crash in Australia—alarms, hard banks, treetops, impact, then blackness split by orange flame. He unstraps, bolts, then sprints back to push guys farther from the heat, watching crew pull a barely conscious crew chief from the wreck. The pilots didn't make it. The adrenaline masked pain for hours; the paperwork later masked responsibility.To watch the full episode in studio, visit: https://youtu.be/Z03jag9JUtcBefore that day, he'd already been recalibrated by the world. MSG duty stationed him at embassies where suits, diplomacy, and three‑letter agencies share space and secrets. Tokyo set a new high bar for food quality, cleanliness, and civic discipline—Ikigai made visible in daily work. In Riyadh, he discovered how rules and reality diverge, where expats and elites create an underground nightlife, and how scarcity turns access into currency. Those scenes weren't about flexing; they were about understanding how networks, incentives, and culture really move people.Back in the fleet, Australia's ranges delivered heat, snakes, crocs, and the kind of miles that make you question why the range is always twenty clicks away. Then came the flight he couldn't shake. Afterward, flying became a ritual of white‑knuckled prayer. The VA process added its own turbulence. Meanwhile, travel kept tugging. Ancient stones in Egypt and temple quiet in Kyoto didn't just awe—they argued. Over time, he found his way back to faith, this time owned and practiced: Orthodox prayer morning and night and a willingness to speak plainly online about politics, war, and conscience because he's stood close to the consequences.If you're here for action, you'll get it. If you're here for meaning, stay to the end.

Jesus said we should pray like children. Children don't think about how they approach, whether they are using the right words, or whether their parents are pleased with them. They just ask. Astoundingly, that's the beginning of learning to pray.
