Welcome, my ghoulish loves!In this final episode of Dark Thirst, I'm diving into pop culture's undying obsession with vampires. From the sensual chaos of True Blood to the glittering restraint of Twilight, and from Coppola's lavish Dracula to Eggers' haunting Nosferatu, I explore how every vampire revival mirrors what's happening in society. From our fears, desires, and shifting ideals of beauty. What do these immortal beings say about us and the times we live in?After centuries of fascination, it's clear, we don't just crave the vampire. We crave what they promise. *Listener Discretion is Strongly Advised*************Sources & References:Auerbach, Nina. Our Vampires, Ourselves. University of Chicago Press, 1995.Gelder, Ken.

In this episode, Rose and Crystal talk with Amanda Faber author of cult beloved Cake Portfolio, about taking the road less traveled — publishing a cookbook completely on her own. From skipping agents and traditional houses to handling editing, printing, and promotion herself, Amanda shares what she learned (and what she'd never do again). It's a conversation about creative control, community, and what happens when you decide to bet on your own voice instead of waiting for permission.Mentioned in this epsiode:Better Homes and Gardens New Cook BookThe Great American Baking ShowBookWright by BlurbNow Serving - Bookstore in LAQuick Copyright InformationKitchen Tape Season 1: Who owns a recipe? with Rick RobinsonJeremiah Duarte Bills, Portuguese Baking SchoolKitchen Tape is hosted by Rose Wilde ⁠@trosewilde⁠ and Crystal Slonecker ⁠@crystalslonecker⁠, edited by Dressler Parsons  ⁠@dresslerparsons⁠ of The Regenerative Baking Podcast, with original theme music by Dan Crabtree.Follow us on Instagram ⁠@kitchentapepodcast⁠ and hit like and subscribe to stay up to date on new episodes and behind-the-scenes crumbs.

Composing Emotion: Jess Faber on Film, Feeling, and Finding Her SoundThis week I sit down with the brilliantly talented Jess Faber, a composer whose music tells stories without words.Known for her evocative, cinematic compositions, Jess creates scores that bring films to life, weaving emotion through piano, strings, and texture rather than lyrics. In this conversation, she opens up about:Writing music for film and why silence, dialogue, and melody must all learn to share the same space.The challenge of creating as a film score composer in a world ruled by algorithms, TikTok trends, and ten-second attention spans.Her journey from classical training to creative freedom and the moment she decided to stop “fitting in” and start writing what truly moved her.Why is it sometimes better to grow slowly and stay authentic than chase virality?The influence of her grandmother, her classical roots, and how storytelling still drives everything she composes.Jess also talks about the emotional heart of her work, her admiration for composers like @haniarani and Trent Reznor, and what she's planning next, including her first EP and a growing passion for live performance.As always, there's laughter, honesty, and a few musical tangents (including jazz jokes, banjos, and stage fright confessions).Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

According to journalist and author Philip Stephens, for David Lloyd George the Partition of Ireland was a means to an end, an escape route from the Irish question in British politics, and a war against Irish Republicanism that Britain could not win. He argues that for Michael Collins the Free State was a first steppingstone to a united, independent Ireland and that over subsequent decades both parties misread the meaning of the Treaty. In his address to the IIEA and following the release of his new book These Divided Isles: Britain and Ireland, Past and Future, Mr Stephens discusses how he thinks the British assumed they could wash their hands of Ireland, North as well as South, and how Ireland judged that all that was required for reunification was British withdrawal. Mr Stephens also proposes that as the prospect of 32-county Ireland draws closer, both governments must avoid repeating these mistakes. Speaker bio: Philip Stephens is a writer and historian. He is a Contributing Editor at the Financial Times, and the author of Inside-Out, a regular column on Substack. He is also a Visiting Senior Fellow at the School for Transnational Governance of the European University Institute, a Richard von Weizsacker Fellow at the Bosch Academy in Berlin, an Honorary Governor at the Ditchley Foundation, and a member of Aspen Italia, Rome. He serves on the steering group of the Franco-British Colloque. His latest book Britain Alone: the Path from Suez to Brexit, was published by Faber. He has won the three main prizes in British political journalism, being named as winner of the David Watt prize for Outstanding Political Journalism, as Political Journalist of the Year by the UK Political Studies Association, and as Political Journalist of the Year in the British Press Awards. He is the author of Politics and the Pound, a study of British economic and European policy, and of Tony Blair, a biography of the former prime minister.

Seventy years after the publication of Samuel Beckett's first novel in English, Faber have reissued Molloy, Malone Dies and The Unnamable with ritzy new covers and fresh introductions. To celebrate, Lara Pawson, author of Spent Light, and Jennifer Hodgson, whose biography of Ann Quin is forthcoming, deliver their own tribute to Beckett's fiction, and discuss his life and work. ‘Oh the stories I could tell you if I were easy,' as Beckett wrote, ‘What a rabble in my head, what a gallery of moribunds.'

Meb Faber, chief investment officer at the Cambria Funds, says that "extremely high valuations are a weight that's hard to overcome," and that the United States is currently "the most expensive country across the board." He notes that when a country ends the year with a price/earnings ratio above 40, the average future 10-year returns are zero. As a result, Faber is suggesting that investors diversify internationally, consider gold — which her describes as being "like your crazy cousin Eddie" coming to the family holiday party — and more. David Trainer, founder and president at New Constructs, says that companies can manipulate earnings numbers in ways that keep investors interested, but which make future earnings misses most likely, and he puts those stocks that are likely to miss earnings in "The Danger Zone." Trainer says that 72 members of the Standard & Poor's 500 are currently overstating earnings by 10 percent or more. Trainer singled out NRG Energy, which has street estimates of 35 cents per share, but which he says is more likely to generate 6 cents per share in profits. Chip Lupo discusses the 2025 Early Holiday Shopping Survey from WalletHub, which showed that nearly half of American consumers aren't waiting for Halloween to start their holiday shopping, but rather they will begin this month (if they haven't started already).

Oud-PVV minister van Asiel en Migratie, Marjolein Faber, heeft een boek geschreven genaamd 'Mij krijgen ze niet klein', toch had het beter 'Als ik het gedaan had' kunnen heten. Van Lintjesgate tot een mogelijke aangifte van premier Dick Schoof. Minister van Wonen, Mona Keijzer (BBB), zegt dat ze doorgaat met het wetsvoorstel om voorrang voor statushouders op een woning te verbieden, ook al heeft de Raad van State het afgeschoten. Jens van Kakerken duidt het allemaal in de nieuwste JENS-Cast! Mis het niet!

Een ‘schrijnend voorbeeld van klassisme', noemt Wierd Duk het grillen van Marjolein Faber op nationale tv door Jeroen Pauw. ,,Het dédain waarmee de PVV-politica werd bejegend was hemeltergend. ‘Jij hoort niet aan deze tafel', was de boodschap.” Volgens Duk is duidelijk: progressief-liberale westerse elites zullen er alles aan doen om de rechts-populisten uit de macht te houden. “Alleen in de VS, waar de minister van Oorlog pleit tegen ‘dudes in dresses' in het leger, is het ze niet gelukt.” Verder in de podcast: het vredesakkoord voor Gaza.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In dit verdiepende gesprek met wetenschapsjournalist Arnout Jaspers en Jelle van Baardewijk staat zijn boek Weg met ons centraal. Ze bespreken de politieke impasse rond stikstof en migratie, de rol van wetenschap en rechters in beleidskeuzes, en de hardnekkige obsessie met schuld in de westerse cultuur.

On a warm, overcast summer's day of 1901, two English school mistresses strolled through the gardens of Versailles, unaware they were about to step into a defining moment in their lives. One minute in the present and the next in the past, Charlotte Anne Moberly and Eleanor Jourdain claimed to have crossed into a spectral vision of the court of Marie Antoinette. What began as a genteel outing quickly turned uncanny, with silent figures, oppressive stillness, and an inexplicable sense of dread creeping over their heads. Was it imagination, delusion, a ghostly breach in reality or simply a fancy dress party run amok?SOURCES Morison, Elizabeth & Lamont, Frances & (1913) The Adventure. Macmillan & Co. LTD. London, UK.

“How Thou canst think so well of us, Yet be the God Thou art, Is darkness to my intellect, But sunshine to my heart.” —F.W. Faber 

In deze aflevering reageren Maarten van Rossem en Tom Jessen op vragen van luisteraars. Over de roep om weer eens écht de geschiedenis in te duiken, de scherpe confrontatie van de dochter van oud-NAVO-secretaris-generaal Jaap de Hoop Scheffer met Maarten, en het debat over burgerberaden. Maar het opvallendste nieuws komt van oud-minister Marjolein Faber: zij schrijft een eigen boek.Mis het niet: 7 oktober live in het Koninklijke Theater Den Haag: Maarten & Tom met de grote verkiezingsshow.

"Manchamos" el ideal de poesía con la palabra dinero de la mano de Yolanda Castaño. La poeta y gestora cultural gallega nos presenta Economía y poesía: rimas internas (Ed. Páginas de espuma), ensayo en el que analiza y denuncia la precariedad de los poetas a la que vez que propone medidas encaminadas a profesionalizar su oficio, tan prestigioso como mal remunerado. En su sección, Ignacio Elguero nos habla de Celia Böhl de Faber con motivo de la publicación, por parte de la Biblioteca Castro, de un volumen que recoge parte de la narrativa de esta escritora, conocida por el seudónimo de Fernán Caballero. También nos recomienda La secuestrada de Poitiers y El caso Redureau (Ed. Plataforma Editorial), las crónicas criminales que el Premio Nobel André Gide escribió sobre dos sucesos que sobrecogieron a la Francia de principios del siglo XX.Luego, Javier Lostalé lee unos versos del nuevo poemario del extremeño Antonio Méndez Rubio, una invitación al despojamiento total bajo el contundente título de Peor que pedir (Ed. Pre-Textos).En Peligro en La estación nuestro colaborador Sergio C. Fanjul nos pone a pensar en cómo se construyen las identidades nacionales a propósito de Nacionalismo, una historia mundial (Ed. Crítica), voluminoso ensayo de Eric Storm que se remonta al nacimiento de la idea de estado-nación y explica cómo esta sigue rigiendo nuestras sociedades.Terminamos Desmontando el poema con la ayuda de Mariano Peyrou, que esta vez nos propone la lectura de San Sebastián de los Reyes (Ed. Ultramarinos), debut de la escritora madrileña Alejandra Arroyo, que demuestra una gran madurez a la hora de mezclar registros y ahondar en asuntos como el de la identidad, tan lleno de posibilidades.Escuchar audio

In this episode, we ask one of the greatest music writers of the rock and roll era to talk about Mystery Train as he celebrates its 50th anniversary with a brand-new edition of his classic book. Talking to us from Oakland, 6,000 miles away in his native Northern California, Greil Marcus looks back on the pivotal moments that led to his starting work on Mystery Train in the fall of 1972: his experiences as a student at Berkeley, his discovery of film critic Pauline Kael and his early writing for Rolling Stone. From there we focus on the book's extraordinary chapters about Sly Stone and Elvis Presley before relating its overarching theme – America as an "invented nation" – to the Trump administration's assault on the diversity that produced so much great art from Walt Whitman and Herman Melville to Robert Johnson and Randy Newman. A somewhat abrupt switch takes us over to our side of the pond and our guest's second book: the vast "secret history of the 20th Century" that was 1989's Lipstick Traces, along with the 1993 collection of his punk writings entitled In the Fascist Bathroom. Clips from Paul Moody's 2018 audio interview with Jamie Reid – the subversive graphic designer who became Malcolm McLaren's principal partner in iconographic crime – prompt Greil's reflections on what made (the) Sex Pistols such a vital sea-change in the subculture of rock and roll.  Many thanks to special guest Greil Marcus. The 50th anniversary edition of Mystery Train is published by Faber and available now. Pieces discussed: Greil Marcus⁠, ⁠Greil Marcus: A Life In Writing⁠, ⁠The Band: We Can Talk About It Now⁠, ⁠Jamie Reid audio⁠, The Beatles: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Parlophone)⁠, Ray Davies: A Study In Frustration, The Pet Shop Boys: Hip, Clever and Pop and The Black Keys Acknowledge Their Muses on Delta Kream.

Seven Keys to Christian Leadership SuccessIn every facet of society, we encounter leaders-individuals in positions to guide and influence others for the greater good. Leaders can be found in schools, government, entertainment, sports, homes, and churches. While leaders deserve to be admired and respected for their roles, many have recently fallen short of our expectations, failing to embody the qualities we want our children to emulate. This disillusionment comes from witnessing failures, including those among leaders of our families and churches, where self-indulgence and greed have become prevalent. The pressing question is: what has led to this breakdown in leadership, and how can we address it?**EFFECTIVE!** by Dr. Arthor L. Faber directly identifies the problem of leadership failure and its roots, while proposing solutions. Through analysis of case studies and testimonies from leaders, the book highlights that many leadership challenges stem from inadequate preparation. Faber outlines seven "keys" to success for Christian leaders: PRAYER, FAITH, INTEGRITY, VISION, WISDOM, STEWARDSHIP, and AGAPE LOVE. Each key is defined, connected to biblical principles, and illustrated with personal insights from the author. Whether you are beginning your leadership journey, currently leading, or shaping future leaders, **EFFECTIVE!** serves as a vital resource. By applying its principles, the possibility of failure diminishes, allowing the vision of success as a Christian leader to become their reality. God calls us to be EFFECTIVE! With this guidebook, effective leadership is just a read away.https://arthorlfaber.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

“Si tu fais mourir tes sols, tu n'as plus de yaourt demain, donc tu n'as plus de dividendes demain.”Notre planète est dans l'impasse et notre industrie aussi.Selon l'un des plus grands ex-patron du CAC40 et aujourd'hui l'un des activistes avec le plus d'impact au monde.Arrivé au comité exécutif de Danone à 29 ans, Emmanuel Faber reste 30 ans dans le groupe et lance des politiques audacieuses sur le plan social comme écologique.Aujourd'hui il a rejoint les institutions internationales engagées pour le climat avec une approche pragmatique : le changement ne peut tenir que s'il est soutenu par des intérêts économiques. Et il rappelle une donnée choc : avec seulement 1% des capitaux mondiaux, la transition énergétique et alimentaire est à notre portée.Et pour ça, il faut créer une compétitivité écologique et sociale avec ce nouveau système qu'Emmanuel participe à construire.Déjà chez Danone durant la restructuration, il avait choisi de protéger les 20% les moins payés — ce qui ne revenait pas plus cher que de couper dans les gros salaires.Il a d'ailleurs reversé son propre salaire de PDG à des associations.Obsédé depuis toujours par l'altérité, il a également passé du temps à la rencontre des plus démunis allant jusque dans les bidonvilles, les mouroirs et au cœur des campagnes du Bangladesh.Dans cet épisode, Emmanuel commence par décrypter les rouages de la macroéconomie mondiale — les normes qui seront bientôt appliquées et les institutions clefs de la comptabilité de demain.Puis il partage ses anecdotes les plus marquantes, et les clés applicables par tous pour éviter la catastrophe qui s'annonce.Entre chefs d'États, dirigeants de multinationales et ONG, Emmanuel Faber pilote les prochaines politiques et de la transformation à venir de l'économie mondiale.À écouter impérativement pour se préparer au mieux et comprendre les dessous de l'économie globale.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : Les coulisses des Forums mondiaux00:16:09 : L'altérité comme nécessité existentielle00:22:27 : Aller jusque dans les bidonvilles et les mouroirs pour répondre à une question : y a-t-il une justice ?00:37:07 : La nouvelle norme mondiale pour éviter le pire00:45:31 : Comment transformer une grande entreprise de l'intérieur00:59:05 : La seule façon de bien réorganiser une entreprise : pourquoi protéger les moins rémunérés01:19:30 : Ce que doit faire la finance mondiale pour survivre01:43:03 : Rémunération et héritage : le problème éternel de la répartition02:01:59 : La Chine est déjà en avance sur la transition02:22:28 : La fausse bonne idée : embêter les PME/TPE02:37:51 : Convaincre tout le CAC40 pour un plan social02:46:37 : Gilets jaunes, Calais, la laitière du Bangladesh02:58:52 : La véritable économie loin des KPI déconnectées03:08:42 : L'impact dramatique de l'industrie alimentaire sur le règne animalLes anciens épisodes de GDIY mentionnés : #284 - Pierre-Édouard Stérin - Otium Capital - Milliardaire et saint dans une même vie#98 Pierre-Édouard Stérin - Smartbox - Entreprendre, gagner des centaines de millions pour tout distribuer à 50 ans#483 - Carlos Ghosn - Out of the box : masterclass business de l'évadé du siècle#472 - Jean-Marc Jancovici - The Shift Project, Carbone4 - L'Europe est dans la seringue : ce qui doit changer dans les 10 prochaines années#284 - Pierre-Édouard Stérin - Otium Capital - Milliardaire et saint dans une même vie#401 - Emmanuel Macron - Président de la République - Les décisions les plus lourdes se prennent seul#480 - Esther Perel - Psychothérapeute - Comment réparer l'atrophie sociale avec l'experte mondiale des relations humainesNous avons parlé de :DanoneVEJAForum social mondialREF25The Consumer Goods ForumNutriciaDanone EcosystemAquaLegris IndustriesFranck Riboud ex-PDG DanoneInstitutional Investor (magazine)WhiteWave FoodsThe Potsdam Institute for ClimateTask Force on Climate Related Financial DisclosuresLa "tragédie des horizons”Action Tank Entreprise et PauvretéMuhammad Yunus (homme d'État bangladais)Trek Chamonix-ZermattDocu GR20Discours d'Emmanuel Faber en 2016Les recommandations de lecture :Un autre monde est possible (changer le monde nouveau mode d'emploi)Chemins de traverseOuvrir une voieMain basse sur la cité: Éthique et entrepriseHard Things - Entreprendre dans l'incertitude: Entreprendre dans l'incertitudeCompetitive Advantage: Creating and Sustaining Superior PerformanceCompetitive Advantage of Nations: Creating and Sustaining Superior PerformanceLes Conquérants de l'inutileN'oublie pas les chevaux écumants du passéPlan de transformation de l'économie française (PTEF)Vous pouvez contacter Emmanuel sur LinkedIn, Instagram.Vous souhaitez sponsoriser Génération Do It Yourself ou nous proposer un partenariat ?Contactez mon label Orso Media via ce formulaire.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

“I was just thinking today.. whether I should put everything in gold and silver,” says Dr. Marc Faber, editor of the Gloom, Boom & Doom Report. In today's interview, Faber argues liquidity is flooding the system, fueling speculation in everything from stocks to crypto while crushing the middle class with soaring living costs. “Throughout 5,000 years of history, governments have always chosen the same path — they print. And believe me, under Mr. Trump the deficit will go up substantially. He's a money printer.” Faber explains why official inflation numbers are “a joke,” why cash and bonds are “the worst instruments to hold,” and why individuals must act before governments do: “I still recommend everyone, everywhere, to accumulate gold gradually. Between 20% and 40% of your wealth should be in precious metals.” Watch how he plans to preserve his wealth in these tumultuous times.✅ FREE RESOURCESDownload The Private Wealth Playbook — a data-backed guide to strategically acquiring gold and silver for maximum protection, privacy, and performance.

Preacher: Jason Faber Due to some issues with the recording equipment, the first several minutes of this sermon were sadly not recorded.

Dr. Marc Faber, editor of the Gloom Boom and Doom Report, provides his characteristically pessimistic outlook, arguing that while Asian economies have bottomed out, mature Western economies are turning down amid unsustainable asset price inflation. He believes the 40-year asset bubble since 1980-81 is ending and "everything will go down eventually," making preservation of capital more important than growth. Faber is ultra-bearish on all paper currencies, expects residential real estate to decline significantly, and warns the US debt situation "will end badly" - possibly through World War III. Despite being in the financial sector that benefits from money printing, he surprisingly agrees with Powell's reluctance to cut rates, arguing money isn't actually tight despite higher interest rates.Sponsor: Monetary Metals. https://monetary-metals.com/julia 0:00 Welcome and introduction - Dr. Marc Faber returns to the show1:18 Big picture global economy - Asia bottomed out, mature economies turning down7:59 Asset price inflation and monetary policy - where money flows first13:37 Monetary Metals ad read15:23 The illusion of wealth - from millionaires to billionaires18:46 Housing affordability at lowest level ever in America23:21 US debt and deficit - "it will end badly" but when?24:50 How it ends badly - World War III is a possibility28:48 Ultra bearish on US dollar and all paper currencies32:12 Precious metals thesis - as long as liquidity remains plenty36:28 Cryptocurrencies - "will go up until it won't"38:26 Fed policy - agrees with Powell not to cut rates41:35 Real estate outlook - residential property "very vulnerable asset"45:11 Biggest risk and opportunity - everything will go down eventuallyLinks:The Gloom, Boom & Doom Report: https://www.gloomboomdoom.com

Tax strategies rarely generate genuine excitement, but the 351 exchange is proving to be the exception that financial advisors, investors with concentrated positions, and forward-thinking asset managers can't stop talking about. This little-known provision allows investors to contribute appreciated securities to create new ETFs without triggering taxable events – essentially functioning as a "1031 exchange for stocks."Matt Faber breaks down how this century-old tax code provision is finally hitting its stride at the perfect moment. With U.S. markets delivering 10-20x returns over the past 15 years, many investors find themselves trapped by potential tax consequences, unable to diversify away from concentrated positions that have grown to dominate their portfolios. The 351 exchange offers a compelling solution by allowing them to contribute these appreciated assets to seed a new ETF, receiving diversified exposure in return while deferring capital gains taxes.Cambria has already completed two successful exchanges with growing participation, expecting their next fund to reach $300-500 million in assets. While the process requires coordination across financial advisors and custodians, the benefits are substantial – particularly for high-net-worth individuals, founders with concentrated stock positions, and investors needing strategic rebalancing after years of U.S. outperformance.Beyond this tax innovation, Faber shares insights on dramatic market trends emerging in 2023. International value stocks have delivered returns of 30-35%, with some markets like Poland up approximately 60%, even as U.S. valuations approach record highs. The conversation also explores the potential recovery in cannabis stocks after eight brutal years of declines, positioning them as a contrarian opportunity with significant upside potential if regulatory progress materializes.Whether you're seeking tax-efficient portfolio solutions, exploring international diversification, or hunting for asymmetric investment opportunities, this conversation offers valuable perspectives from one of the industry's most innovative thinkers.

Carl Quintanilla, David Faber, and Jim Cramer began the show by breaking down the latest trade deal between U.S. and Japan. President Trump announced the ‘massive' trade deal on Truth Social, saying that the agreement includes “reciprocal” tariffs of 15% on the country's exports to the U.S., with auto duties reportedly being lowered to that level as well. Faber later broke down some reporting on OpenAI and xAi both seeking additional capital, as the race for AI expansion continues. The desk also took some time to remember former Honeywell CEO and longtime GE executive, Larry Bossidy, who passed away at age 90.  Squawk on the Street Disclaimer

David Faber rejoined Carl Quintanilla and Jim Cramer at Post 9 at the NYSE for today's show to help breakdown another busy day of earnings. One of the biggest movers included General Motors, which moved lower despite topping earnings estimates. CEO Mary Barra said in a letter to shareholders that the automaker is working to ‘greatly reduce' its tariff exposure. The desk also watched shares of Kohl's spike at the open, with the stock jumping as much as 100% in early trading. Also in the hour; Faber broke down all the potential M&A news swirling around the railroad sector.  Squawk on the Street Disclaimer

In this episode of The Catholic Man Show, hosts Adam Minihan and David Niles share personal anecdotes and deep spiritual insights, focusing on the challenge of distractions in prayer. From road trip stories to household mishaps, the hosts set the stage with relatable humor before diving into a discussion inspired by St. Thomas Aquinas and Father Frederick Faber. They explore the five fountains of distraction in prayer, offering practical advice for cultivating a deeper prayer life by addressing distractions outside of prayer time.Key Discussion Points:Opening Banter (00:00:19 - 00:04:50): David recounts his family road trip to Wyoming, including an unexpected stop in Denver and the challenges of traveling with six kids. Adam shares his chaotic week of household breakdowns, from a malfunctioning dishwasher to a beeping van door and a broken lawnmower, humorously reflecting on the "throwaway culture" he's trying to resist.Health Struggles (00:09:01 - 00:11:24): Adam discusses a rare bout of heartburn that kept him up at night, highlighting his lack of Tums and his struggle to lead a meeting while sleep-deprived and feverish. David relates to his heartburn experience from a past "one chip challenge" on the show.Sponsorship Spotlight (00:12:00 - 00:12:39): The hosts thank Select International Tours, a long-time sponsor, for their reliable pilgrimage offerings. They encourage listeners to visit selectinternationaltours.com for details on their upcoming October pilgrimage to Italy, emphasizing the ideal weather and transformative experience.What We're Drinking (00:37:02 - 00:37:26): Adam and David enjoy Wyoming Whiskey, a bourbon David praises for its affordability ($30 in Wyoming) and delicious flavor, making it a fitting choice for the episode.Main Topic: Distractions in Prayer (00:15:28 - 01:11:09):Personal Reflection: Adam shares a moment of grace in adoration, where he asked God to reveal impediments in his prayer life. A distracting phone check during a conversation revealed his struggle with presence, sparking a realization about the need for focus in both human and divine relationships.Theological Foundation: Drawing from St. Thomas Aquinas' Summa Theologica (Second Part of the Second Part) and Father Walter Farrell's Companion to the Summa, the hosts discuss prayer as an act of the will, preceded by the intellect. They reference the Baltimore Catechism's teaching that we are made to “know, love, and serve” God, emphasizing that knowing God fuels love, which leads to service.Five Fountains of Distraction (Father Frederick Faber):Disordered Health: An obsession with health (valetudinarian state) can distract from tranquility in prayer, unlike true suffering, which can draw one closer to God when united with the Cross.Actions of the Holy Spirit: Distractions can serve as a crucible to humble and purify, grounding believers in deeper devotion by burning away self-love.The Devil: Demonic distractions are marked by their abundance, vivid imagery, soul-disquieting nature, disconnection from daily life, repetitive patterns, and potential to lead to sin. Custody of the eyes, especially against sins of the sixth and ninth commandments, is crucial to limit the devil's influence.Inculpable Self: Unintentional distractions arise from temperament, imagination, or poor spiritual direction, which are not deliberately chosen but still disrupt prayer.Culpable Self: Deliberately entertained distractions are grave sins if knowingly allowed during time owed to God. These include:Bodily Sources: Lack...

In this episode of The Catholic Man Show, hosts Adam Minihan and David Niles dive into the topic of spiritual idleness, drawing from Father Frederick Faber's Growth in Holiness: Progress of the Spiritual Life. Recorded around the Fourth of July, the episode begins with a celebration of small-town Americana, from mutton busting at the local rodeo to the ordination of their friend, Father Robert Williams. The hosts then explore seven developments of spiritual idleness—dissipation, sadness, sloth, and more—offering practical insights on how to stay vigilant and prioritize a life oriented toward God. Sipping on Balvenie's American Oak 12-Year Scotch, Adam and David discuss how modern distractions, like smartphones and excessive communication, fragment our focus and hinder our prayer life, and share strategies for cultivating presence, joy, and intentionality in both spiritual and daily routines.Key Discussion Points:Small-Town Americana: The hosts celebrate the Heart of America rodeo, mutton busting, and the communal prayer and patriotism of small-town events, reflecting on their importance in fostering connection.Priestly Ordination: David shares a moving story of his son's emotional response to Father Robert Williams' ordination, highlighting the eternal nature of the priesthood and the call to discernment.Spiritual Idleness Defined: Drawing from Father Faber's Growth in Holiness, the hosts unpack seven developments of spiritual idleness: dissipation (misprioritizing tasks), sadness (rooted in self-love), sloth (hatred of existence), useless industry (excessive communication), and general indifference to time.Dissipation's Impact: Putting less important tasks first disrupts the hierarchy of goods, leading to a loss of peace and distractions in prayer, as Faber notes: “He who is diligent will soon be cheerful.”Sadness and Self-Love: Sadness, driven by self-improvement rather than God, gives the devil power over the soul, undermining spiritual progress.Sloth as a Culmination: Sloth combines dissipation and sadness, fostering a distaste for existence and duties, disrupting the tranquility of order (Aquinas' definition of peace).Useless Industry: Faber's critique of excessive letter-writing in the 1800s applies to today's text messaging and social media, which fragment focus and reduce meaningful communication.Indifference to Time: Wasting time, especially on addictive platforms like YouTube Shorts, is a “stupid” sin that squanders the precious, irrevocable gift of time, which Faber calls “the stuff out of which eternity is made.”Focus and Presence: True focus requires saying “no” to distractions to prioritize God's will, fostering presence in both daily life and prayer, as exemplified by a man eating lunch under a tree without multitasking.Leisure Done Right: Leisure must align with one's state in life, be tethered to joy, and have a contemplative aspect, avoiding compulsory or utilitarian ends.Notable Quotes from Father Frederick Faber:“Dissipation… consists in putting things off beyond their proper times so that one duty treads upon the heels of another, and all duties are felt as irksome obligations.”“He who is diligent will soon be cheerful.”“The soul of sadness is self-love… How many are there whose real end in the spiritual life is self-improvement rather than God?”“Nothing gives the devil so much power over us [as sadness].”“Time is the stuff out of which...

Episode OverviewDavid and Adam share humorous anecdotes from their chaotic home lives—mice-catching kids, runaway cows, and pig feeder mishaps—before diving into a deep discussion on spiritual growth. Drawing from Father Frederick Faber's Growth in Holiness, they explore five practical signs of progress in the spiritual life, offering insights for men seeking to deepen their relationship with God. The episode balances lighthearted banter with profound reflections on humility, perseverance, and living intentionally for Christ.Key Discussion PointsLife Updates:Adam recounts his son Leo's antics, including catching mice and feeding them into traps, and opening a gate, letting a cow escape during relentless Oklahoma rain. He also shares the challenges of a kitchen remodel, leading to household disorder and a mouse infestation.David discusses his pigs knocking over their feeder, eating through plywood, and his frustration-driven rebuild with metal siding, highlighting the manual labor woes of farm life.Spiritual Focus: The hosts explore Father Frederick Faber's Growth in Holiness (published by Cor Iesu Press), focusing on Chapter 1's five signs of progress in the spiritual life. Faber, a 19th-century Oratorian and convert, offers timeless clarity on Catholic spirituality.Contradictions in the Spiritual Life: Faber notes the spiritual life is full of contradictions due to our fallen nature, particularly the tension between knowing ourselves deeply while thinking of ourselves humbly. David challenges the modern adage that humility is “thinking about yourself less,” arguing that true humility requires rightly ordered self-reflection.What Not to Do:Don't Ask Your Spiritual Director for Progress Reports: Faber advises against seeking your spiritual director's judgment on your progress, as it places unfair pressure on them and risks oversimplifying complex spiritual states.Avoid Arbitrary Benchmarks: Setting personal, artificial markers of progress can lead to disquietude, distracting from genuine growth and forfeiting graces.Five Signs of Spiritual Progress:Discontent with Your Present State: A desire to be holier, coupled with humility and gratitude for past graces, indicates progress. This discontent must avoid sloth (acedia) or unease with devotional practices.Constant Fresh Starts: Persevering through repeated failures by recommitting to holiness (e.g., overcoming a persistent sin like pornography) is a sign of growth, reflecting perseverance.Specific Goals in View: Actively pursuing a particular virtue, overcoming a specific fault, or adopting a penance shows intentionality, akin to a business plan for spiritual growth.Feeling God's Particular Call: An “attraction” to a specific fault to correct or pious work to undertake, guided by the Holy Spirit, signals progress. Not all experience this, but it's significant when present.General Desire for Perfection: A broad desire to be more perfect, if acted upon through prayer, penance, or zealous acts, is valuable but must be channeled into action to avoid spiritual stagnation.Practical Reflections:Adam shares his practice of writing down elements of a “good day” (waking early, praying, reading, working hard, family dinner, early bedtime) to replicate satisfying days, aligning with Faber's call for specific goals.David reflects on overcoming obsessive thoughts by offering gratitude to God, transforming burdens into opportunities for grace, illustrating the power of fresh starts.Hot...
