June 01, 2026 On Envy: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly by Dr. Farid Holakouee

Send us Fan MailDid you see that we got to interview Nikki St. Crowe?! When the Queen of spicy fairytale reimaginings calls, you answer and promptly cover her new book West of Wicked!  We thought we'd made it out of the Oz universe alive and *relatively* unscathed but “spoiler alert* we got sucked right back in. Are we happy about it? Listen on to find out. West of Wicked is book one in the Great and Terrible Land trilogy, with book one out now, and book two East of Envy scheduled to release on November third of this year! So buckle up for a whole new take on Dorothy, the witches, and her most beloved companions. Oz is creepier and dark, Dorothy is an older and more powerful badass, the Scarecrow is tall, dark and handsome, the Tin Man is a mercenary with a bionic arm, and the Lion and Wizard… you'll just have to read to see. Stick around for our spoiler free reviews, spice ratings, deep dive summary (brought to you by Ashley this time!) and a lovely side tangent where Liz plays “the cups.” We apologize in advance for the chaos. But listen, we're not in Kansas anymore.

When you hyper-focus on what you think you lack, you aren't practicing gratitude, and you can become discontent. When you covet what someone else has, you will start to believe that God is withholding something good from you. That means our discontentment is not about our life circumstances but about the state of our hearts.  Melissa Kruger joins the Perrys to talk about a book Jackie stumbled upon when looking for resources on the topic of covetousness – one that Melissa wrote back in 2012 called “The Envy of Eve: Finding Contentment in a Covetous World.” Whatever you're wanting, it will not ultimately be soul-satisfying. We spend our time chasing the contentment we want when it's available to us simply by abiding with Jesus.  Connect with Melissa: https://www.instagram.com/melissabryankruger  https://melissabkruger.com/ Check out Melissa's book, "The Envy of Eve: Finding Contentment in a Covetous World" – https://www.amazon.com/Envy-Eve-Finding-Contentment-Covetous/dp/1845507754 Jackie and Melissa's Ephesians study with Jasmine Holmes: https://www.lifeway.com/en/product/ephesians-bible-study-book-with-video-access-P005843174?

Aw, Lazlo and SlimFast have their matching gay shirts on today! Was Tom Hardy booted from MobLand? SlimFast is here for Stedman, not Oprah. Pre-9/11, you could get a hotdog without getting jumped.

Envy is a deadly sin, and it's almost entirely unavoidable. Our Sages that “Envy extracts a person from the world.” It causes a person to be severed from the world. But there is so much cause for envy wherever we turn. In every area of life, there is rank inequality. Other people have things that […]

"Envy"Series: Book of Numbers Speaker: Matt CoburnSunday MorningDate: 31st May 2026Passage: Numbers 12:1-16

[James 3:14-16] But if you have bitter envy and selfish ambition in your heart, don't boast and deny the truth. [15] Such wisdom does not come down from above but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. [16] For where there is envy and selfish ambition, there is disorder and every evil practice. Envy is ___________________ God's goodness to others, while ___________________ His blessings to us. Envy is a ________________ that robs us of being content. [Proverbs 14:30] A peaceful heart leads to a healthy body; jealousy is like cancer in the bones. Not going to ________________ ourselves with others. [2 Corinthians 10:12] Of course we would not dare classify ourselves or compare ourselves with those who rate themselves so highly. How stupid they are! They make up their own standards to measure themselves by, and they judge themselves by their own standards! [Galatians 6:4] Pay careful attention to your own work, for then you will get the satisfaction of a job well done, and you won't need to compare yourself to anyone else. ___________________ with others. [Romans 12:15] Be happy with those who are happy, and weep with those who weep. [1 Samuel 23:17] “Don't be afraid,” Jonathan reassured him. “My father will never find you! You are going to be the king of Israel, and I will be next to you, as my father, Saul, is well aware.” Embrace God's ___________________ to us. [Ecclesiastes 6:9] Enjoy what you have rather than desiring what you don't have. Just dreaming about nice things is meaningless—like chasing the wind. Gratitude is the ___________________ for envy. [1 Thessalonians 5:16-18] Always be joyful. [17] Never stop praying. [18] Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. When we are thankful, we attract the ___________________ of God.

On today's solo episode, Nik draws on a powerful excerpt from John Steinbeck to highlight the excellence, discipline, and consistency demanded of aviation professionals. While today's pilots may differ from the Vietnam-era aviators who left Steinbeck "sick with envy," the standard of mastery remains unchanged. Nik challenges modern pilots to stay sharp, remain humble, and continually raise the bar. CONNECT WITH US Are you ready to take your preparation to the next level? Don't wait until it's too late.

Jim Shannon and Todd Ritter welcome back two familiar faces to the corner of Rick House in Frankfort: Diane Strong, the driving force behind the Bourbon on the Banks Festival, and Bo Cumberland, the festival's videographer and distillery film maker. Together they settle in for a relaxed preview of the 2026 Bourbon on the Banks Festival — now in its seventh year — touching on new events, expanded programming, sold-out tickets, and the evolution of the single barrel program that has become one of the festival's most celebrated features. On the Tasting Mat: - James E. Pepper 1776 Single Barrel Bourbon (Bourbon on the Banks 2025 Pick): A barrel selected the prior year by Jim, Todd, and Bo at James E. Pepper Distillery in Lexington. Clocking in at 109.4 proof, this single barrel pours with rich aromas of cherry cola, leather, and a subtle barrel funk. The palate delivers a lush butterscotch sweetness — evoking Werther's Original hard candies — balanced by a satisfying peppery bite on the mid-palate. The finish is long, warm, and refuses to fade. A confidently balanced cask-strength pick available at the festival for around $60–65. *(00:01:54)* - Jeptha Creed Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Single Barrel Reserve (Bourbon on the Banks 2025 Pick): A four-grain bourbon — built on the distillery's heirloom Bloody Butcher corn alongside wheat, malted barley, and rye — bottled at 119.52 proof from Warehouse B after seven years and one month of aging. The nose opens with intriguing complexity, revealing sweet cinnamon, a whisper of root beer, and a hint of fresh strawberry. The palate is full-powered and richly flavored, landing on buttered cinnamon pancakes with a wave of deep caramel. A distinctive expression that showcases just how compelling Jeptha Creed's long-aged releases have become. *(00:20:05)* On the Tasting Mat: Beyond the pours, the crew digs deep into everything Bourbon on the Banks 2026 has to offer: a sold-out Bourbon Bell River Tour with Ingram Distillery, the returning Whiskey Thief Kickoff Party (barrel burning included), a free family-friendly Friday night on the lawn with circus performers and a mermaid, the Culinary Bourbon Geek class with Peggy Noe Stevens now pushed to 2 p.m., a Friday VIP Reception and Auction sponsored by Larkin Bourbon, a Saturday morning brunch at Cypress and Oak, expanded single barrel picks from eleven distilleries including Angel's Envy, Pursuit Spirits, Jeptha Creed, Jackson Purchase, Boondocks, and others, and an after-party headlined by Creekwater with bluegrass openers Hancock and Schaus. Twilight tickets for the October 3rd main event are still available at bourbononthebanks.org. Be sure to visit thebourbonroad.com

Why do other people's lives always seem better?In this teaching on Psalm 73, John Ortberg explores envy, comparison, resentment, worship, and the deep human struggle of feeling overlooked while others seem to prosper.The psalmist honestly confesses:“I envied the arrogant.”What follows is one of the most emotionally honest prayers in the Psalms — a prayer about jealousy, discouragement, unfairness, and the exhausting habit of comparing our lives to everyone else around us.This episode explores:- Why comparison distorts reality- Social media, envy, and modern dissatisfaction- Worship as perspective restoration- The turning point of Psalm 73- Why gratitude disappears when envy grows- “It is good to be near God”This teaching is deeply practical, psychologically insightful, and spiritually grounding.Scriptures:- Psalm 73#Psalm73 #JohnOrtberg #Prayer #Worship #Envy #Comparison #SpiritualFormation #ChristianFaith #BibleStudy #Psalms

Caitanya Mahāprabhu said, in a practical way, when the residents of Kulina-grāma asked him about offending devotees, he said, "Offending devotees is poison; the antidote to the poison is to glorify the devotees." So, if you have to do something with your tongue, then just try to find something good to say about them. Somebody says "blah, blah, blah," and you say, "Well, they have nice kids." I've heard that before, and it ruins the whole conversation. Because of envy in the heart, there is a hankering like "Can't we just grind somebody else for a while and pile it on?" But then, when you throw that in, it's an antivirus software and it wrecks the whole thing. The other overarching point is: we should pray to Kṛṣṇa to become completely 100% non-envious, because envy ruins everything in our lives and everybody else's lives. Just meditate on what it would feel like to become 100% non-envious. I asked Nirakula the other day—because I've been asking a lot of people—"What would it feel like to be 100% non-envious?" She said, "Well, we'd be living in the spiritual world. So why not start living there now?" It's not even a religion, you know; you don't have to join a church. In fact, the Bhāgavatam even says it. There's a verse in the Bhāgavatam that I can't find, so I have to ask Śāstra-sāra where it is. It says the main process is to become free from envy. I know it's there in the beginning of the Bhāgavatam, but it's very specifically stated elsewhere. You should meditate on that—how to become completely non-envious. And if you get the opportunity to associate with somebody who is non-envious, it's startling. Because you just notice that they're either non-envious or they're so focused on becoming non-envious that they're reticent about touching topics that will stimulate that sense of envy and nourish it like a little fire that you're pouring ghee into. They have already understood—they're so high-minded—they understand that Kṛṣṇa is aware of everything. We want to please Kṛṣṇa; like Mahārāja's class this morning, the whole premise of that is to be utterly humble and very, very careful in the way we deal with people. Kṛṣṇa deals with everything else in our lives. We don't have to jump in and try to use a monkey wrench to fix everything, because it won't work. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://vaisesikadasayatra.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------

It's not your fault it broke. But it is your fault if it stays broken. You didn't ask for the trauma. You didn't choose the betrayal. You didn't plan the divorce, the loss, the abuse, the abandonment. You didn't knock your own walls down. But 140 years later, you're still standing in the rubble. And God is asking you one question: when are you going to rebuild? Using the story of Nehemiah, Pastor Eric Thomas exposes the real reason your life is still broken. It's not because it's too hard to fix. It's not because God hasn't shown up. It's because you haven't owned it yet. Nehemiah looked at walls destroyed for 140 years and rebuilt them in 52 days. Not because he had more resources or a bigger team. Because he stopped blaming, stopped avoiding, and started building. In this message you'll discover: → Why power is available but not automatic, and how to activate it in your life → The difference between assessing, praying, and finishing, and why most people never get to the third step → Why 52 days is all it takes when you stop making excuses and start taking ownership → How empty hands don't stay neutral, they either build with you or break what you're building → The real reason people who loved you when you were broken start hating you when you start healing → Why you can't build with 2 hands anymore, you need one for the work and one for the weapon → The electrician story, the credit report testimony, and the Rose Royce revelation that will change how you see God's standard for your life

The show kicked off with reactions to the thrilling Thunder-Spurs double-overtime matchup, as Tobin and Leroy debated whether OKC and San Antonio are already separating themselves from the rest of the NBA. The guys also touched on the Marlins' offensive explosion against the Braves, Tobin's failed parlay, and what Victor Wembanyama's development could mean for Kel'el Ware's future with the Heat. Later, the focus shifted to Dolphins OTA's, with updates and comments from Jeff Hafley fueling discussion about Miami's expectations this season. The crew also reacted to the bizarre mix-up involving Jaxon Smith-Njigba receiving a Defensive Player of the Year trophy, before diving into another edition of “The Damage is Done My Friend.” The crew then tackled the growing tension between Lionel Messi, Inter Miami, and frustrated fans upset over players no longer acknowledging supporters after matches. Leroy defended the player's perspective while the rest of the gang pushed back, leading to a spirited debate that continued off-air. To close the show, the guys circled back to Dolphins OTA updates, joked about sending Kel'el Ware “to the monks” for development like Wemby, reacted to Dwyane Wade's comments about fan patience, and wrapped things up with a trip into the mixed bag.

Joe and Kieffer from Tequila Mockingbird join us for a deep dive into the Michigan music scene, the evolution of emo and post-hardcore genres, and the stories behind influential bands and their impact on the scene. We explore the influence of video game soundtracks on music discovery, the vibrant DIY festival culture in Lansing, Michigan. About Bardown Breakdown:Power chords and crashing boards. Mikey, Tom, and Justin talk music, hockey, and anything else that gets in their way. Tom and Mikey are lifelong friends that grew up on Long Island during the glory days of alternative music where our local bands were As Tall As Lions, Brand New, Taking Back Sunday, Bayside, The Sleeping, Envy on the Coast, you get the point. We spent many nights together at The Downtown, catching any pop-punk, indie, hardcore, or emo band that came through. This was not a phase, Mom! Fast forward 20 years and we are still just as passionate about the scene as we were during our girl jeans and youth XL band tees days. Tom and Mikey are diehard New York Islanders fans, but Justin (Bolts fan) likes to remind us that we are not an Isles podcast. As we got older we realized we can like more than one thing and running beside our love for music has always been our love for hockey. We have realized we are not alone in this thinking, actually there are many of us that love these two things! This podcast explores just how connected they are!

Shame doesn't only live in the dark corners of a broken life. It lives just as quietly in the person everyone else envies — the one who has achieved everything and still wakes up feeling like it isn't enough.Ken Shigematsu grew up moving between Japan, England, and Canada, carrying the weight of a shame-and-honor culture that most Western theology never addresses. In this conversation, he and Michael explore why deep grace is different from knowing grace is true, what it means to grow our capacity to actually receive love rather than deflect it, and why beauty and joy aren't spiritual extras — they are among the most direct routes out of shame and into the self God made.Ken also shares the simple daily practice that, over 30 days, can literally rewire the neural networks that make it hard to feel loved by God — even when you believe it.Ken Shigematsu is a pastor in Vancouver, Canada, and author of Now I Become Myself: How Deep Grace Heals Our Shame and Restores Our True Self.Support the showENGAGE THE RESTORING THE SOUL PODCAST:- Follow us on YouTube - Tweet us at @michaeljcusick and @PodcastRTS- Like us on Facebook- Follow us on Instagram & Twitter- Follow Michael on Twitter- Email us at info@restoringthesoul.com Thanks for listening!

Envy: A Spirit of Critique | Galatians by Christ Covenant

Monday, May 18, 2026

In this powerful message, Bishop Omar Thibeaux teaches that envy is not only destructive — it is contagious. Through the story of Jacob and Laban, this episode explores how favor attracts envy, how envy spreads through families and social circles, how it reveals itself in a person's countenance, and how believers can protect their hearts through salvation, Scripture, prayer, and renewed thinking.

This episode we explore Krishna subduing Kaliya from the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam - where the Yamuna is poisoned and Krishna enters it directly to purify it from within.We reflect on what “inner poison” looks like in modern life - ego, envy, habits, and conditioning - and how real transformation isn't about avoidance, but conscious confrontation with grace.Through stories, philosophy, and reflection, we discuss how Krishna's response shows that divine love doesn't stay distant from chaos - it enters it, transforms it, and restores it.A conversation on bhakti, humility, inner change, and learning to see life's challenges as purification rather than punishment.4:34 – Facing impurity directly (not running from it)6:37 – Inner conditioning, karma, and how habits deepen9:09 – “Piercing the layer of oil” - going to the root of inner issues13:32 – Envy & the necessity of humility15:47 – Surrender and transformation, not destruction17:16 – The kindness of Krishna in purificationWant to connect further?Instagram: www.instagram.com/radhika_dasa/Facebook: www.facebook.com/radhikadasmusicYouTube: www.youtube.com/c/RadhikaDasWebsite: www.radhikadas.comPatreon: www.patreon.com/radhikadasLinktree: linktr.ee/radhika_dasa

In this message, Pastor Aaron teaches on an issue everyone has, but no one wants to acknowledge. Envy often shows up through comparison, quietly stealing joy, gratitude, and contentment. In this message, he unpacks how to recognize envy in our lives, break the cycle of comparison, genuinely celebrate others, and pursue lasting contentment in Christ.

The Evil Eye of Envy (1 Samuel 18:1-30)God's Upside-Down Kingdom: The Book of 1 SamuelMay 17th, 2026Jeff Bruce The Evil Eye of Envy Jeff Bruce

What is your envy telling you?

In week three of the “Above All Else” series, Grant Clark explores the deadly sin of envy and how comparison quietly corrodes the heart. Through Scripture, practical examples, and the gospel, this message invites us to move from discontentment and comparison into deeper satisfaction and contentment in Jesus.Quotes:“Envy is the feeling of wanting to have what someone else has.” — Britannica“Envy rejects the good life God has given me and obsesses over what God gives someone else.” — Jeff Cook, Seven“Envy has the deadly ability to distract my heart and mind from the daily bread God puts in my hands each morning, focusing me instead on the gifts, status, talents, and joys he gives to others… Envy is a deadly sin because it inspires us to say to God, ‘The life you've given me just isn't good enough.'” — Jeff Cook, Seven“We live in the most materially prosperous era in human history... Yet we are anxious, restless and often enraged. Why? It's not only about our circumstances. It is about how we perceive our lives.” — Jonathan Haidt“Social media didn't invent envy, but it industrialized it. It turned comparison into a business model.” — Jonathan Haidt“Envy works its cruel deception on our heart in such a way that our neighbor becomes a measuring stick of God's goodness (or lack of goodness) in our own lives.” — Melissa Kruger, The Death of the Deadly Sins“To pray for those we envy is to pour down rain on our envy parade.” — Kevin Vost, The Seven Deadly SinsScripture References:Proverbs 4:23 (NIV)Proverbs 14:30 (CSB)Psalms 23:1 (CSB)Matthew 13:44–46 (CSB)Philippians 4:11–13 (CSB)Hebrews 13:5 (CSB)Psalms 73:25–26 (CSB)

This episode features a lively discussion with Adam, Robbie, and Michael from Adam Guzman about their musical journey, the local scene's evolution, and memorable experiences with famous personalities. They share insights on recording, performing, and maintaining their passion for music into their late 30s. About Bardown Breakdown:Power chords and crashing boards. Mikey, Tom, and Justin talk music, hockey, and anything else that gets in their way. Tom and Mikey are lifelong friends that grew up on Long Island during the glory days of alternative music where our local bands were As Tall As Lions, Brand New, Taking Back Sunday, Bayside, The Sleeping, Envy on the Coast, you get the point. We spent many nights together at The Downtown, catching any pop-punk, indie, hardcore, or emo band that came through. This was not a phase, Mom! Fast forward 20 years and we are still just as passionate about the scene as we were during our girl jeans and youth XL band tees days. Tom and Mikey are diehard New York Islanders fans, but Justin (Bolts fan) likes to remind us that we are not an Isles podcast. As we got older we realized we can like more than one thing and running beside our love for music has always been our love for hockey. We have realized we are not alone in this thinking, actually there are many of us that love these two things! This podcast explores just how connected they are!

Boortz pushes back against growing criticism of billionaires, arguing that entrepreneurs and investors create jobs, opportunity, and long-term wealth for others.

Ecclesiastes 5:8–6:12 - exposes the emptiness of trusting in government, money, possessions, or achievement to give lasting meaning. Solomon shows that wealth and success often increase anxiety rather than peace, and a life spent chasing more can still leave the soul unsatisfied. Even under God's sovereignty, human choices still matter, and people remain responsible for how they live and what they pursue. Instead of building life around endless striving, Solomon points toward a quieter rhythm of flourishing: enjoy meals with others, work faithfully, accept your limits, and practice gratitude. True joy is found not in prestige or accumulation, but in receiving everyday life as a gift from God, marked by contentment, meaningful work, shared community, and thankfulness toward the Giver of every good thing.

Fr. Mike contrasts Jonathan's brotherly friendship with David, and Saul's bitterness and envy towards David. We also learn from Psalm 59 that David still praised God in his distress as Saul tried to kill him. Today we read 1 Samuel 18-19 and Psalm 59.
