Will we have ferocious sports rivalries in heaven? Will we have tantrums over lost card games? Will we play? This week, Kaitlyn and Producer Mike answer the question - Will we have competition in heaven? Along the way, they discuss questions about how we categorize effects of the fall v. natural human limitations, what we can and cannot know about life in eternity, and how our work in this world can become our source of identity and value.   0:00 - Theme Song   1:10 - Not Sinful, but Limited   4:37 - Will We Have Perfect Bodies in Heaven?   6:50 - Different Talents   12:33 - It's Good to Play!   17:40 - The Bad Side of Competition   20:58 - Do We Need Competition?   25:13 - Quick Kid Answers   27:19 - End Credits

After a South African pastor claimed that Christ would come for his church on September 23, TikTok became rapture obsessed. Mike Erre joins Skye and Kaitlyn to discuss our ongoing fixation with this bad theology, why people get caught up in rapture predictions, and how it damages the credibility of the faith. Kaitlyn talks to Medieval scholar, Grace Hamman, about her new book, “Asks of Old Paths.” Hamman says Medieval literature is rich in wisdom for modern Christians on how to define a good life, using the language of virtues and vices. Also this week—a secular writer examines the benefit of confession and repentance, which makes us wonder why so few Christians practice it.

The finale of The Stormlight Archive, and discussing what may be to come - - FN Episode 271

Sometimes information gathering doesn't happen in the perfect audio conditions of a studio or the Zoom link, you have to occasionally get out there and find the news. To that end, we will visit a picket line on Speedvale Avenue, attend an annual event that reminds us that there's still some ways to go when it comes to eliminating gender-based violence, and hear about a program fighting food insecurity in the west end. First up we meet Nisha Jagtap and Will Snyder, two of the hundreds of college support workers on strike and are about to enter their third week on the line. Both sides released statements on Monday saying the other is prolonging the strike, but that's what is going on at the high level. What's going on at Conestoga College's Guelph campus? Jagtap and Snyder will share their thoughts from the picket line, how students are being affected, and what they want from a new contract.  Next, we will rewind to Thursday September 18, which was the annual commemoration of Take Back the Night. Cindy McMann, public educator at Guelph-Wellington Women in Crisis, spoke at the event and talked about why recent events prove that it's still hard for women who are the victims of sexual violence to get justice for themselves in an outdated and restrictive justice system and the ways we can work towards systemic change. And finally, we will go to Shelldale last Friday and hear from some of the people who take part in the f.u.n. Fridays program, which stands for "Food United Neighbours". The f.u.n. Fridays initiative is an effort to improve food access for the Onward Willow neighbourhood, and Guelph MP Dominique O'Rourke announced new funds for the University of Guelph that will allow the f.u.n. Friday partners to expand into Centre Wellington and bring similar improved access to quality healthy foods to the Fergus area. So let's get into some real audio news on this week's Guelph Politicast! You can learn more about the programs at Shelldale at their website, and f.u.n. Fridays takes place every Friday in the Shelldale gym and you can learn more about them on social media. You can access the programs of Guelph Wellington Women in Crisis or learn how to donate and volunteer at their website, and you can learn more about the efforts to change the justice system here. And finally, you can learn more about college support workers strike here. The host for the Guelph Politicast is Podbean.

This week, Kaitlyn tackle a kid's big question: “I know there's one true God, but are there little gods beneath him?” From Psalm 82 to Job and Paul, the Bible's language about gods, angels, demons, and spiritual powers is stranger than most of us realize. Kaitlyn unpacks what these passages mean, why scripture sometimes blurs the line between human rulers and spiritual beings, and how it all points back to the hope that the one true God reigns above every power.   Holy Post Plus: My Hill to Die On: Red Letter Bibles: https://www.patreon.com/posts/my-hill-to-die-138522925   0:00 - Theme Song   0:58 - Are There Little gods in the Bible?   3:26 - Psalm 82 mentions “gods?”   10:28 - Are these gods extensions of rulers?   12:13 - Sponsor - Dwell - Listen to scripture throughout your day.

The Ending of Wind & Truth, or at least half of it. The 2nd half next Episode - - FN Episode 270

This week on End Credits, we're making friends. This may be harder that it looks, or at least it seems like it is with this week's movie, which is called Friendship. You can watch that on video-on-demand or by streaming it on Paramount+, and while you're making a watchlist we will talk about other movies featuring a legendary movie star who has sadly passed away. This Wednesday, September 24, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Tim Phillips will discuss: Remembering Robert Redford. There are movie stars and then there's Robert Redford! The multi-talented actor, director and activist passed away last week at the age of 89, and he leaves a tremendous legacy of wonderful movies he made both in front of and behind the camera. But beyond his own films, Redford, as founder of the Sundance Film Festival, has fostered the talents of hundreds more. We will talk about Redford's multifaceted legacy. REVIEW: Friendship (2025). What if Fatal Attraction was about a suburban dad who becomes obsessed with his neighbour, the cool TV weatherman who has a band? That's essentially the logline for Friendship, a new dark comedy starring Tim Robinson as the dad and Paul Rudd as the weatherman, and it promises to make you cringe as hard as it makes you laugh. Friendship comes at an interesting time as we talk about the loss of male friendships in real life, so is the perfect movie for our time, or is it daring you to stay in front of your screens? End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.

StrategyCorp puts out a report every year called the Ontario Municipal Chief Administrative Officer Survey. The CAOs profiled have some strong feelings about Strong Mayor Powers, intergovernmental relations, housing, growth, financing, and and more, but what's interesting is not what the CAOs had to say, it's the fact that they said it. What are CAOs thinking when they're given the cloak of anonymity? A retired Brock University professor David Siegel once wrote, “CAOs can make a mayor and council look exceptionally good (or bad). They can be a source of great pride and motivation among the staff of the municipality (or not).” In that context, it's no wonder that people would want to hear a CAO's unvarnished takes on something like Strong Mayor Powers, which was the one part of this year's CAO Survey that made the most noise. But municipal life is bigger than Strong Mayors, and it's just one of 14 chapters in the 2025 survey. When you read the report, which features contributions from 32 unnamed CAOs from around Ontario on issues like housing, finances, community safety and wellbeing, the impacts of climate change, and the impacts of the Trump administration's trade war. Stacy Hushion is one of the people responsible for putting this together every year, and today she will share some of the things that surprised her. On this week's podcast, Hushion will tell us how this report comes together, and how honest the CAOs get when they're providing their input to the survey. She will also talk about the ways Strong Mayor Powers put CAOs in a jam, why CAOs are mixed about how proactive the Ontario government has been, the issues keeping CAOs up at night, their concerns about who might get elected next year, and the ways they're trying to break the political and jurisdictional logjams.  So let's get into the mind of a CAO on this week's Guelph Politicast!  You can read more about the work of StrategyCorp on their website. Obviously, that includes all 109 pages of this year's Ontario Municipal Chief Administrative Officer Survey, or you can follow this direct link. Guelph City Council will be back in session for Committee of the Whole on Tuesday October 7 at 2 pm. The host for the Guelph Politicast is Podbean.

Most of us imagine heaven as somewhere “up there.” We look to the sky when we pray, talk about loved ones “looking down” on us, and even build churches to lift our eyes heavenward. Yet, Scripture's vision is far richer. In this episode, Kaitlyn explains why heaven isn't simply a place above the clouds, but wherever God's reign is made real. Both in the world to come, and even in our lives today.   0:00 - Theme Song   7:25 - Ancient Languages   12:30 - God's Rule   14:17 - Sponsor - Zocdoc - Stop putting off those doctor's appointments!

This week on End Credits, things get creepy. Again. In the last four weeks, we've reviewed three horror movies and the latest is The Long Walk, the last adaptation from the *King* of horror. That's a dystopia, so we're going to talk about that, and as we're creeping up on October, and our latest Halloween movie draft, we will talk about other movie challenges!  This Wednesday, September 17, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Candice Lepage will discuss: The Halloween Challenge. Halloween Month is nearly upon us, but for some people it starts in August. Like Candice. To open this week's show, we will talk about Candice's 100 movies in 92 days challenge, how she chooses the ones she watches, and how you can get started if you're interested in taking up your own movie challenge. Dystopia! Before we dive into this week's movie, we will pause to recognize all the crappy futures we've dwelled in during our movie lives. From living among monsters both literal and figurative, to authoritarian governments and tech gone wild, we will talk about what brings us back to bleakness. REVIEW: The Long Walk (2025). One of Stephen King's earliest works finally makes its way to the big screen at what may be the worst (or best) possible time. The story takes place in a dystopia America where 50 young men compete to win riches and a chance to have their wish granted. The game? Walk for as long as you can until you're the last man left. Everyone else is killed when they can't walk anymore. Much has been made about the implicit messages of the film, but can we keep pace with this latest glimpse at our pessimistic future? End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.

School kids and teachers aren't the only ones that get a summer vacation. City council, and those that cover them, also get a summer break, at least when it comes to the monthly meeting schedule. We now have a couple of weeks of meetings under our belt since August ended, but for this week's podcast we're going back in time to business at council before summer vacation. We will start in May when council said goodbye to a colleague who got a new job, and then they got into the issue of placing a daytime shelter, and whether or not that should go downtown. Downtown was a pretty big area of interest in the middle three months of meetings this year, from the upcoming big dig on Upper Wyndham and St. George's Square to the possibility of holding the Memorial Cup at the Sleeman Centre in 2027. The biggest story though might have been that council vacancy. There were times that the even number of council representatives caused some difficulties on close votes, including on the vote to appoint a replacement for Dominique O'Rourke. The appointment process was a tremendous source of drama but so was, surprisingly, the pace of new heritage designations that have been brought to council for approval over the last several months.  This is just a taste of some of the council business that took place between May and July of this year. Some issues were more complicated than others, some issues turned out to be not issues at all. Council sat as a shareholder, and as a tribunal. They met for some special orientation meetings, and they had a planning matter come to a regular meeting through Strong Mayor Powers. It's a lot to cover in a little over 30 minutes, but this week we will give it a try.  So let's get into the middle part of this year at city council on this week's Guelph Politicast!  You can see all the council meeting agenda and find videos of all the council meetings on the City of Guelph website. Or you can get all those details with the council previews, recaps and post-views on Guelph Politico.

Producer Mike joins Kaitlyn again to discuss a seemingly easy but surprisingly tricky question: did Jesus get sick? Mike and Kaitlyn talk about the meaning of the incarnation: What does it mean that Jesus was (and is!) really, truly human, but did not sin? If Jeus was without sin, does that mean he was without illness? Did Jesus get especially tempted when he got a cold? What does it mean for us if Jesus did allow himself to get sick?   0:00 - Theme Song   00:28 - Did Jesus Ever Get Sick?   6:47 - Does Sin Make Us Sick?   11:20 - Would Jesus choose to be sick?   14:40 - Sponsor - No Small Endeavor - Award-winning podcast where theologians, philosophers, and best-selling authors talk about faith with Lee C.

This week on End Credits, we're here to make you think about death and stuff. We will perform last rights over the final chapter of a favourite horror franchise with The Conjuring: Last Rites, and we will leap off that ending to talk about some of our favourite final entries in long-running movie franchises, even if those movies were not the last word.  This Wednesday, September 10, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Peter Salmon will discuss: The End? The Conjuring is the second most successful film franchise in Hollywood history spanning about 10 different movies over the last 12 years, and Last Rites is supposed to be the final chapter. Over the years, there have been a lot of endings to a lot of movie series, and not all of them have been permanent endings. In any event, that is where we will start this week's show, at the end! REVIEW: The Conjuring: Last Rites (2025). Horror is not dead, even if this franchise now might be. The number one movie at the box office last weekend is supposed to be the final entry in a series of movies based on the ghost hunting investigations of Ed and Lorraine Warren, and it promises to be their biggest, most consequential hunt (haunt?) yet. Ed and Lorraine's past literally catches up with them at a haunting in a small Pennsylvania town in 1986, but are we ready to say goodbye to our favourite (straight-faced) ghost busters? End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.

Out of 27 perspective candidates for Ward 6 city councillor it came down between Katherine Hauser and Rebecca Adam, and after a show of hands vote ended in a tie, Hauser got the gig in a literal luck of the draw. It was her name that came out of that big orange box, and it's now up to Hauser to make as big an impact she can before council rises one year from now for the next municipal election. What does she do now? Now normally we interrogate city councillors on Open Sources Guelph, but we thought that with the tremendous pressures for Councillor Hauser to get the job and then hit the ground running, we would ease her into the world of Guelph politics with a more relaxing Politicast segment than the 22-minute egg-timer on OSG. True, there was the August recess that allowed her to get acclimated, but city council business is a fast moving object. Hauser is, of course, not unfamiliar with the job of representing Ward 6. Her last gig in politics was serving on the Upper Grand District School Board as the trustee representing Guelph's Ward 6 and Puslinch. In her statement of qualifications, she said she wants to “advocate for Ward 6 with empathy, insight, and the same integrity” she's brought to all her roles, and today she will be tested again on this podcast. Katherine Hauser will join on this week's edition of the podcast to talk about the reasons why she wanted to make the jump to city council, how she feels about the process that brought her to council, and how she's been building relationships with the six members of council that didn't vote for her. She will also talk about the learning curve, what she thinks she can accomplish in the next year, and why she's already thinking about next year's election.  So let's get to know the newest member of city council on this week's Guelph Politicast! You can reach out to her by email at katherine.hauser [at] guelph.ca and you can follow her on Instagram. You can stay up to date with all the latest agendas and developments with city council at the City of Guelph website under the “city government” tab, or by following meeting previews and recaps at Guelph Politico.

Most of us don't give sidewalks a second thought. They're ordinary, unremarkable, and everywhere. But Kaitlyn Schiess explains why even something as plain as a sidewalk can reveal profound truths about God and humanity. Responding to this week's child's question, If God made everything, why did people make sidewalks? Kaitlyn explores the Christian belief that God created the world out of nothing, how human creativity reflects the image of God, and why our best inventions are those that foster community. From Genesis to Revelation, she shows that sidewalks may be more than concrete paths under our feet; they may point us toward the city of God.   0:00 - Sponsor - God's Colorful Kingdom Storybook Bible - Available now, a kid's storybook Bible from Esau McCaulley: https://a.co/d/hVy8aUl   0:55 - Theme Song   2:07 - Did God Not Make Sidewalks?   7:12 - God Made Everything… Out of Nothing   17:30 - Sponsor - Glorify - Sign up for the #1 Christian Daily Devotional App to help you stay focused on God.

Michael Strassner joins Newsweek's H. Alan Scott to talk about how one little direct message to Jay Duplass is what birthed the their new film The Baltimorons. A beautiful and heartfelt film set in Baltimore tells the personal and funny story of one man's journey to sobriety on a fateful Christmas Eve.

This week on End Credits, it's crime time! We will get caught in the movie theatre to see Caught Stealing, but be assured that we have paid for our tickets. It's the last official summer movie we'll review this year though because the next thing on our to do list is to check out the fall movies and on this episode we will preview some of our top picks! This Wednesday, September 3, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Tim Phillip will discuss: Fall Movie Preview. Although it's technically still summer, in movie terms fall is here! Film festivals in Telluride, Venice and Toronto are rolling out all the flicks that are the basis for our great expectations for cinema in the months ahead, and to begin this week's show we're going to talk about some of our favourites. From the return of PTA and Shakespeare, to the greatness of Eleanor and The Boss, we will look at what's next! REVIEW: Caught Stealing (2025). The year is 1998. Hank is a New York bartender and washed up professional baseball prospect, but when his neighbour asks him to look after his cat for a few days, his whole life comes apart as he's chased by mobsters, corrupt cops, and his own guilty conscience. It's a crime thriller, and a dark comedy, and it comes to us from the man who gave us Requiem For a Dream, The Wrestler and mother! so can Darren Aronofsky be a populist for once and make a real crowd pleaser by taking a bite out of crime? End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.

We've been told that Artificial Intelligence is coming for all our jobs, that it will create fake news so real looking there will be no room for doubt, and in the worst case scenarios it will supplant human beings as the dominant lifeform on planet Earth. It's scary stuff, and yet our fate depends on the same tech bros that have turned social media and the internet into a few concentrated monopolies. Is there still time to rein in A.I.? In the movies, artificial intelligence is almost always bad, but here in real life, we've seen the best and worst of A.I. development. On the one hand, you have Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph Public Health is using A.I. to collate and organize huge data sets, and on the other you have criminals using A.I. videos of real people to rip off victims with elaborate crypto scams involving cryptocurrency, and none of this deals with any of those existential concerns we see in the movies. But there's at least one person who's thinking about that future and he's from Guelph. Christopher DiCarlo is the author of the new book Building a God: The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence and the Race to Control It, which outlines a short history of A.I., the current concerns about its development, the extreme concerns about the people doing the developing, and the ways we still have time to properly regulate A.I, and use it to make the world a better place for all people and not just tech billionaires. DiCarlo will be taking part in this weekend's Eden Mills Writers' Festival to talk about some of those ideas, but he's going to make one stop before that... this podcast! He will talk about why he's so concerned about A.I., his long quest to raise the alarm about its development, and the ways we misunderstand the dangers and opportunities of the technology. He will also talk about the difficulties trying to regulate A.I., how we overcome big tech's resistance to regulation, and if it's all bad news when it comes to this technology. So let's talk about building a God on this week's Guelph Politicast!  You can buy his book, Building a God: The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence and the Race to Control It, wherever you buy fine books, and you can see him discuss his book and the issues around A.I. this Sunday at the Eden Mills Writers' Festival. You can find information about the festival or buy tickets here. You can also learn more about his advocacy and research into A.I. through Convergence Analysis at their website.

Kaitlyn and Producer Mike tackle not one, but four kid questions in this week's episode!

From Mar-a-Lago to the Hollywood Hills, things are getting weird, so we called in the great Gianmarco Soresi to help us process. On the docket: Why is Trump coming for the beloved Gayle King? What's behind the GOP's newfound obsession with Sydney Sweeney? And in the most shocking career pivot of the year, why did Dean Cain announce he's joining ICE? We try to figure it all out, and also wonder if the new White House ballroom will have a disco ball. You don't want to miss this one.

This week, comedian Zach Noe Towers joins Newsweek's H. Alan Scott for a whirlwind ride through the pop culture circus you didn't know you needed. We're talking the totally random (and kind of perfect?) romance rumors between Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson, the alleged Katy Perry–Justin Trudeau connection that has the internet ina. tizzy, and why Sydney Sweeney can't even pose for American Eagle without sparking a controversy. Plus, we're giving our unfiltered thoughts on the Luigi Mangione musical (yes, it's a thing) and the shocking sight of Jason Momoa without a beard—spoiler alert: not a good look.

This week Franchesca Ramsey joins Newsweek's H. Alan Scott to sift through the pop culture chaos that was this week. We're talking Trisha Paytas' reincarnation theory following the death of Ozzy Osbourne (yes, really). Also, after the deaths of Osbourne, Cosby Show star Malcolm-Jamal Warner, and Hulk Hugan, could people just stop dying this week?! We also pondered what late night might look like after Stephen Colbert. Finally, influencers got cozy at Elon Musk's new Hollywood café, do they deserve to be called out—or called in?

We have a pope and he's American! Cardinal Robert Prevost from Chicago is now Pope Leo XIV, and his connection to The Holy Post is closer than anyone imagined.

And what does it reveal about larger changes within American evangelicalism?

Pope Francis died on Monday. Will the Catholic Church continue to move in the direction of inclusion and reform, or will it elect a more traditional leader in reaction to the last papacy? Mike Cosper is back to talk about his new podcast from Christianity Today about the Satanic Panic, “Devil and the Deep Blue Sea.” In the 1980s and 90s, the FBI investigated 11,000 reports of satanic ritual abuse, but did not uncover a single credible story. So, why were parents throughout the country worried that heavy metal music, board games, and the Smurfs would lead their kids into devil-worshipping cults? Cosper explains how hucksters leveraged fears over cultural change to create mass hysteria, and why lessons from the Satanic Panic are still relevant today. Also this week, Medieval art reveals the sounds and smells of hell.   Holy Post Plus: Bonus Interview with Mike Cosper: https://www.patreon.com/posts/127227607/   Ad-Free Version of this Episode: https://www.patreon.com/posts/127232165/ 0:00 - Show Starts   3:50 - Theme Song   4:12 - Sponsor - Our Place - Go to https://www.fromourplace.com and use code HOLYPOST to get 10% off site wide on beautiful cookware!   5:22 - Sponsor - Rocket Money - Find and cancel your old subscriptions with Rocket Money at https://www.rocketmoney.com/HOLYPOST   12:12 - News of the Butt, Medieval Art Edition   18:46 - Bosch Painting Translated into Music   24:24 - The Legacy of the Pope   32:35 - America vs. The Pope   41:42 - Sponsor - BetterHelp - This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
