In September 1972, in Edina, Lloyd Brenna appears to have put the bombing behind him, until federal agents return with a new case. This time, it's tax fraud, built around a fabricated identity and a scheme that begins to unravel in court. Faced with the evidence, Lloyd doesn't back down. Instead, he offers explanations so strange, so confident, that they seem to defy common sense. As Lloyd faces sentencing, Wallace Brenna serves time for his role in the bombing, and Harold Pieper, still recovering from his injuries, turns to the civil courts in search of accountability.  A special thanks to Mike Wald and Derrik Dyka for their contributions to this episode.

Chris Stoddard's story doesn't begin with strength—it begins with survival. Raised in a financially strained household, Chris grew up watching his mother fight tirelessly to keep them afloat, while enduring the chaos of an abusive, alcoholic stepfather. On the other side, love from his biological father was complicated by manipulation and psychological pressure, leaving Chris feeling like the cause of his parents' divorce and fundamentally broken from a young age. By third grade, he was already battling thoughts no child should carry. The only refuge came from his Uncle John and Aunt Kathy, who showed him what real family looked like—until that foundation was shaken by his uncle's passing. As the years went on, the weight of abuse and bullying began to take its toll. Chris's teenage years marked a turning point—not toward healing, but toward darkness. Placed in an alternative program for troubled youth, he found connection, but also a gateway into crime, drugs, and violence. The loss of his close friend Andy to a heroin overdose became a defining moment, hitting him at one of the most vulnerable times in his life. What followed was a deeper descent into a dangerous world, including ties to a 1%er motorcycle club. But everything changed when Chris met the woman who would become his wife. Faced with the reality of becoming a father, he made a choice—to walk away from the life that was consuming him and break the cycle he was born into. Chris's journey didn't magically resolve from there. He endured a severe nervous breakdown, time in a psych ward, and moments where he came dangerously close to ending his life. But in one of those darkest moments, something small—a video—pulled him back. From there, he began rebuilding piece by piece. He found stability in real estate, but more importantly, he found purpose in storytelling. After losing a close friend who helped spark the idea, Chris eventually launched Roll The Bones—a podcast rooted in real conversations, real struggles, and real transformation. Today, as a father of three and a committed husband, Chris is focused on one mission: turning pain into purpose, and using his voice to speak on addiction, mental health, and the silent battles many are still fighting.

“My life would still be beautiful even if I never had children.” Topics Discussed • The emotional death grip many women hold during infertility • Why fear of not having children creates nervous system tension • My personal fertility journey including failed IVF and miscarriage • The moment that shifted my relationship with motherhood • Why letting go does not mean giving up on having a child • The role of fear, identity, and control in the fertility journey • How emotional attachment can impact the body and nervous system • A powerful meditation to release fear around fertility outcomes Hello Beautiful, Monica here supporting you to become the conscious mama you were born to be. Today's episode is a vulnerable one because we are talking about one of the hardest truths many women on the fertility journey cannot even say out loud. What if life could still be beautiful even if you never had children? For many women struggling with infertility, the journey slowly becomes a death grip. Every decision feels like it determines your future, every month carries the weight of hope and disappointment, and life begins to revolve around one single outcome. I know this deeply because I lived it myself during my own years of infertility, failed IVF cycles, and miscarriage. In this episode I share the quiet moment that shifted everything for me. A realization that my life would still have meaning even if motherhood never happened. Not because I stopped wanting a family, but because loosening that grip allowed my body and mind to finally breathe again. We also walk through a powerful meditation inspired by a Psych-K balance that explores both the best case and worst case life scenarios without children. Facing those fears can release the emotional tension that keeps so many women stuck in overdoing, overthinking, and constant urgency on their fertility journey. “When your entire life revolves around fertility, you quietly enter what I call infertility hell.” 02:51 The death grip many women hold during infertility 04:17 How control patterns followed me into motherhood and business 05:13 The quiet moment that shifted my fertility journey 06:51 Why many women cannot say life would be okay without children 08:05 Releasing fear and loosening attachment to outcomes 10:02 The truth about physical healing and cellular health 11:30 Introducing the meditation inspired by birth and death balances 13:25 Preparing yourself emotionally before the meditation 17:04 Activating the thymus center 19:18 Activating the hara point 21:49 Connecting the thymus center and the hara point 24:39 Remembering when the desire for a child first began 27:54 Observing your fertility journey to the present moment 31:17 Imagining the best possible life without children 35:05 Facing the deepest fears about not having children 39:24 Returning to the present moment 43:49 Processing emotions after the meditation 45:45 Integration and emotional release after the exercise Full Transcript on the Blog: https://www.findingfertility.co/blog/hardest-truth-i-faced-during-infertility-not-having-children-how-i-let-go-to-get-pregnant-naturally Let's Do This Together

Max talks with Troy Duck and John Von Fange about their dramatic Cirrus SR22T CAPS parachute deployment in N39VF after a power loss near Chanute, Kansas. What began as a routine flight quickly turned into an emergency when they heard a loud banging noise and lost engine power. Faced with a rapidly developing situation, they attempted to divert toward the airport, declared an emergency, and ultimately pulled the CAPS parachute. The event was unique in that they were able to user their Spyderco Manix 2 pocket knives to cut two of the parachute's Kevlar attachment harness lines from within the airplane. In this episode, Troy and John describe what happened in the cockpit, how they assessed their options, and what led them to activate the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System. They also share what happened after touchdown, when strong winds kept the parachute inflated and dragged the aircraft across the ground, creating a second phase of danger after they were already on the surface. This conversation offers valuable lessons for Cirrus pilots and all general aviation pilots about emergency decision-making, power-loss scenarios, CAPS readiness, and the importance of acting decisively before options disappear. It's a firsthand survival story with practical training value and a powerful reminder that preparation matters.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is now facing a broadened police inquiry in Britain that goes beyond the original misconduct-in-public-office allegation tied to his former role as a UK trade envoy. Thames Valley Police are reportedly examining possible sexual misconduct, corruption, fraud, dishonesty, abuse of power, and dereliction of duty as part of a widening investigation connected to his long relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Police have already arrested and questioned Andrew, searched properties linked to him, and appealed for witnesses as they try to determine whether his position as a public representative was misused. The investigation was originally prompted by material from the U.S. Epstein files suggesting Andrew may have shared confidential trade information with Epstein while holding a government-backed role, but detectives are now also looking at whether any alleged misconduct involved sexual exploitation or abuse of public office.A major new strand involves police engagement with lawyers for a woman who alleges she was taken to Andrew's Windsor home in 2010 “for sexual purposes.” Authorities have not said that a formal criminal complaint has been filed on that specific claim, and Andrew strongly denies wrongdoing, but the fact that investigators are actively appealing for witnesses shows the probe is expanding rather than narrowing. The case is especially significant because it connects several previously separate Andrew controversies into one possible investigative framework: Epstein, royal access, trade envoy privilege, alleged misuse of power, and claims involving women brought into elite settings. No charges have been announced, and police are stressing that the inquiry will take time, but this marks one of the most serious legal developments Andrew has faced because it places his Epstein-era conduct directly inside an active British criminal investigation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Police probe Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor over 'sex offences': Stunning update on investigation of former prince as officers appeal for potential 'victim survivors' to come forward | Daily Mail Online

So much for Trump's iron grip on the party. Just days after Thomas Massie's defeat, Republicans in the Senate and House begin to buck Trump on his top priorities: ballroom funding, the taxpayer-funded slush fund for his allies, and the war in Iran. Could it be that his surprise endorsement of Ken Paxton over John Cornyn in the Texas Senate primary didn't help matters? Faced with mounting leaks, the DNC finally releases its 2024 autopsy — an incoherent, error-riddled mess that Chairman Ken Martin admits was a failure from the start. The New York Times releases new polling data on what Democrats think the party needs to do to win in 2028. Then, California gubernatorial candidate Matt Mahan talks to Tommy about the race and his record as mayor of San Jose.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Around one out of every ten women will be diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime. But it wasn't the news Lindsay Bartels was expecting to get at the age of twenty-six. Faced with her own mortality and the impact cancer treatment could have on her fertility, Lindsay had to deal with yet another revelation. She tested positive for the BRCA 1 gene meaning her risk of cancer was higher and this could be passed onto any children she might have. Lindsay, who shares her experience in her memoir Imogen in Waiting, speaks to Mihingarangi about the choices she had to make - including one that wasn't as clear cut as she expected.

  Purpose of the episode: Jeff Krajnak, a combat veteran, shares how medical cannabis helped him reduce opioid dependency and how THC metabolite laws led to criminal charges despite no impairment. Military service with the Navy Seabees and SEAL teams in Iraq and Afghanistan left Jeff with severe PTSD, fibromyalgia, and ankylosing spondylitis, resulting in a medical discharge in December 2013. Post-discharge, Jeff was consuming 11 opioid and psychiatric pills daily, drinking a bottle of vodka a day, and described himself as detached, suicidal, and hospitalized in a psych ward for eight days. Switching to medical cannabis — an indica strain for sleep and a CBD cream for pain — allowed Jeff to reduce from 11 pills to just one, and eventually quit opioids entirely. A 2017 car accident occurred when another driver ran a red light; Jeff and his son were uninjured, he cooperated with police, passed three field sobriety tests, and showed no signs of impairment. Despite every officer on scene testifying he was not impaired, Jeff was arrested 32 days later by a SWAT team due to THC metabolites in his blood — 4 nanograms active, 40 nanograms metabolite — exceeding Nevada's 2-nanogram legal limit. Charges included two felony B counts — felony DUI resulting in death and felony child neglect — carrying a potential 16–20 year prison sentence. Jeff accepted an Alford plea to felony reckless driving and misdemeanor DUI; the judge acknowledged he was not impaired but stated the law left her no choice. Probation terms banned cannabis use, forcing Jeff back onto 22 pills daily — highlighting the legal contradiction that allows high-dose opioid use while prohibiting medical cannabis. Nevada's 2-nanogram THC limit dates to 1999 and is based on a 1986–87 study measuring residual THC in reckless drivers' urine — not impairment — making it scientifically unsound. THC can remain in blood for weeks in chronic users, and up to 90 days depending on testing method and consumption type, meaning the legal limit bears no relationship to actual impairment. Other states apply higher or more flexible standards — California, Washington, and Colorado allow 5 nanograms with rebuttal options, and Michigan does not prosecute medical patients — contrasting sharply with Nevada's near-zero-tolerance approach. Jeff advocates for impairment-based DUI laws rather than residual THC thresholds, arguing that trained Drug Recognition Experts can assess actual impairment without relying on metabolite levels. As president of the Coalition for Patient Rights, Jeff is pushing for federal cannabis de-scheduling — arguing Schedule 3 is insufficient — and working with NORML, MPP, and other organizations to advance legislative reform.

Once an ironman athlete and perfectionist, Risa August faced a devastating diagnosis that stripped away her former life. This is the story of how she found new purpose and adventure, transforming her approach to life, from rigid achievement to joyful discovery, even with her unexpected companion, "Bubba," her brain tumor.    Chapters: 00:00 From Extreme Achiever to Illness  Host Bill Burke introduces Risa August, an adventurous woman who once excelled in extreme sports, asking, "Is there anything you can't do?" Risa describes her past as an intense overachiever and perfectionist, pushing limits in Ironman, mountain climbing, and hot yoga, always striving to be better than others and maintaining a rigid lifestyle.  03:51 The Diagnosis of Acromegaly  Risa recounts the onset of strange symptoms after her first Ironman in 2010, including significant weight gain despite a strict diet and increasing fatigue. After years of doctors dismissing her concerns, she insisted on an MRI, which revealed an enlarged pituitary and led to her diagnosis of acromegaly, a serious condition she had never heard of before.  11:09 Choosing Adventure Over Despair  Faced with a devastating diagnosis and a challenging life, Risa decided not to break down but to break out, committing to her adventures despite doctors' warnings about what she could no longer do. She realized she would never be her old self, so she focused on "who can I be then?" and made a conscious decision to truly live life on her own terms.  14:00 The Road Unpaved and Bubba  Risa found a new purpose in a cross-country bicycle journey along the Pacific Coast Highway, a trip she committed to doing on her own terms after reflecting on her past perfectionism. She also named her brain tumor 'Bubba' as a way to connect with her changing body, turning him into a central character and partner in her healing journey and the book.  21:29 Gestalt Therapy and Connection  Risa discusses how her Gestalt therapy training, which she underwent during her diagnosis, provided a crucial support network and helped her become a more patient, compassionate, and curious practitioner. She also emphasizes the importance of deep, personal connection and active listening, a lesson she learned on her bike tour by giving others a chance and finding unexpected commonalities.  30:13 The CAN Framework  Risa shares her 'CAN' framework—Capable, Able, Now—which she developed after feeling stuck post-surgery and questioning her purpose. This mantra helped her simplify the complex challenges she faced, prompting her to ask, "What am I capable and able to do now, in this moment?"  35:29 Living a Full Life Now  Risa openly discusses the progression of her acromegaly and its physical toll, yet she maintains a strong mindset, dedicated to inspiring others to live full lives. She now finds joy in simple things, like perusing a farmer's market, and doesn't worry about disappointing others by not always seeking the 'next big thing.'

From Self-Focused to Service-Driven: Chris Lundquist's Faith Journey In this episode, Chris Lundquist shares a powerful and relatable story of faith that didn't happen overnight—but grew through relationships, life changes, and a persistent call from God. Raised in a Christian home, Chris always believed—but admits his early adult years were marked by independence and a focus on self. It wasn't until he became a father that everything began to shift. Faced with the question, “What kind of dad do I want to be?”, Chris started a journey toward intentional faith, mentorship, and a life aligned with purpose. Today, Chris lives out that calling in impactful ways—from coaching track and field with a Christ-centered culture, to leading a thriving after-school program that mentors the next generation. Along the way, he's also learned what it means to trust God in closed doors, unexpected opportunities, and even in saying “yes” to fostering a child when it felt impossible. Through honest reflection and practical insights, Chris reminds us that faithfulness isn't about perfection—it's about willingness. And when we take steps toward God, even imperfect ones, He meets us with purpose, direction, and surprising impact.

Joanna Stalnaker is a professor of French at Columbia University and also the author of the books The Rest Is Silence: Enlightenment Philosophers Facing Death and The Unfinished Enlightenment: Description in the Age of the Encyclopedia. Greg and Joanna discuss how Enlightenment figures faced death amid disbelief or tempered religious belief. Joanna says scholars have emphasized 18th-century death rituals more than philosophers' personal end-of-life writings, and she links her interest to growing up with atheist philosopher parents to her earlier work on Enlightenment description, and Rousseau's late writings.  Their conversation covers models like Socrates and Montaigne's, public scrutiny of deaths, last rites, and burial, and tensions between posterity and accepting oblivion. They discuss Hume's death and ambivalence about his reception, Diderot's Seneca-inspired reflections and critique of Rousseau's self-presentation, Voltaire's editing of Meslier and correspondence with Madame du Deffand, Buffon's gradual “ossification” view of dying, salons and letters' role in Enlightenment networks and women's participation, posthumous publication, and the value of literary form for understanding embodied philosophy and equanimity toward death. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: On publishing a book against transhumanism 07:19: I published the book [The Rest Is Silence] that, in a certain sense, it's kind of a book against transhumanism or all these attempts to sort of survive, whether it be through technology or whether it be through spreading one's genetic material by having as many babies as possible. There's this—I see, in our current moment, a kind of denial of death through those various phenomena. Sorates is a model of enlightened death  04:53: Socrates is a model in terms of how to die, what one might call an enlightened death; how to die a philosophical death; and how to face death in a courageous manner, in keeping with one's philosophy. And that was a preoccupation for both David Hume and Voltaire. They were very aware that the public was watching their deaths and that there was great interest in how they would die and whether they would recant their beliefs on their deathbeds. They were thinking back to this model of Socrates, I believe. Can you separate philosophy from the way it is written? 39:04: One of the things that I want to insist on in my work is the fact that we need to take literary form and genre and style into account because it's very difficult. The philosophical ideas cannot be extracted from their form, and I, in this particular book  [The Rest Is Silence], was interested in the question of embodiment because my book is really about them attempting, acknowledging their coming deaths but acknowledging that they lived as bodies, as mortal bodies, and attempting to find a way to express that in writing.

FDR faced significant domestic opposition from powerful congressional voices like Harry Truman and Hiram Johnson, who viewed both Hitler and Stalin as "monsters" or "beasts." Internal polls showed that 54% of Americans opposed aiding the Soviet Union, with majority support in only 11 states. To bypass this political resistance, the Roosevelt administration kept the early stages of Soviet aid secret for six months. Sean McMeekin notes that it was only after the Soviet regime survived the 1941 winter that Roosevelt publicly admitted to a multi-billion dollar credit line with no strings attached, effectively winning the political battle through executive discretion.

In this episode I chat with singer-songwriter Randall Goodgame to explore the powerful connection between music, Scripture memory, and family discipleship.Randall, the creator behind Slugs and Bugs and the Scripture Hymnal, shares how his journey into writing word-for-word Scripture songs began not in a studio, but in his own home. Faced with helping his young children memorize Bible verses, he discovered that setting Scripture to music made memorization not only easier, but joyful.From that simple beginning grew a body of work that has helped countless families hide God's Word in their hearts.In this conversation, Randall discusses how music uniquely engages the brain and why songs become such a lasting part of our memory. He explains his songwriting process, including how he chooses Scripture passages and matches musical tone to the meaning of the text. He also shares behind-the-scenes insights into the challenges of turning certain passages into songs—and how those challenges often lead to deeper understanding.We also dive into the role of joy and humor in the Christian life.

A quiet park. A hidden meeting place. And a murder that exposed how criminalized queer lives made perfect targets.In 1960, a man entered Queen's Park and never came home. What began as another secret encounter in the shadows of a city that treated gay men as criminals became one of Scotland's most disturbing LGBT true crime cases. In an era when queer relationships had to exist in whispers, predators learned exactly where fear could silence victims, and how the law itself could shield violence. In this LGBTQ+ true crime podcast episode, Jordi and Brad unravel the murder of John Cremin, the teenage killer Anthony Miller, and the chilling reality of a gay murder case shaped as much by prejudice as by brutality.Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer history, and twisted justice to light, all with a cold one in hand.Press play, grab a drink, and step into a true crime story where secrecy became a weapon, and survival came at a deadly cost.

What if the boldest thing a nonprofit could do isn't fight to survive alone, but choose to grow together? In this episode, Jay Deppeler, Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Development Officer at Inperium, shares how a 25-year journey through the health and human services sector led him to one of the most revolutionary models in nonprofit leadership. Imperium now operates across 20 states with 34 affiliates and more than $800 million in revenue, all without erasing a single organization's identity or mission. Jay didn't start in boardrooms. He started as a 19-year-old psychology student working with traumatized kids in a residential treatment facility, wondering why the systems around them weren't better. That question never left him. And when he met Ryan Dewey Smith in 2016, it found its answer.   [00:04:40] What He Does and Who He Serves Senior EVP and Chief Development Officer at Inperium, a nonprofit-supporting organization Inperium strengthens health and human service nonprofits without eroding their mission or local identity Affiliates gain scale, infrastructure, and capital while keeping their name, vision, and values [00:05:40] How He Got Here Started as a 19-year-old psychology student working with traumatized kids in a residential treatment facility Saw 84 kids at full capacity with interventions he felt weren't robust enough Pursued a master's in counseling psychology at Lehigh University to go deeper into the work Realized the people he was helping were supported by nonprofits that needed to be stronger at the systems level [00:09:00] Building Edison Court Became president and CEO of Edison Court in 2012 and led its first ever strategic plan Faced a major funding shift from program funding to fee-for-service and later managed care Tried and failed to recruit other nonprofits to grow together; ego and identity concerns blocked every attempt Decided to raise his hand and look for a larger partner instead; that partner was Inperium [00:11:20] Meeting Ryan Dewey Smith Met Ryan in August 2016 in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania Ryan introduced the concept of affiliation as distinct from merger or acquisition Affiliating organizations keep their mission, vision, and values while gaining back office support Jay was persuaded immediately; eight months later Edison Court became Inperium's third affiliate [00:13:00] What Affiliation Actually Looks Like Within three months of affiliating, Edison Court opened its first facility outside its home county Went back to organizations that had said no and showed them what was possible; they all came in Helped the Children's Home of Reading, on the brink of insolvency after 150 years, with a $400,000 loan to make payroll That organization restructured, re-strategized, and is now flourishing [00:17:40] The Relationship That Changed Everything: Ryan Dewey Smith Without Ryan's vision, Jay believes Edison Court would not have survived the funding shifts Ryan's energy and audacity know no bounds; he never runs from a problem He gives his leadership team full latitude to leverage their unique skills His can-do attitude was transformative in 2016 and remains so today [00:21:40] When Everyone Ran for the Hills In 2024 an organization with $300 million in revenue lost $26 million over two fiscal years Their bank was calling a $22 million line of credit on May 31st; cash would run out by early July That put 3,800 employees and 35,000 people supported by the organization at serious risk Inperium was the only organization that stepped in with a $25 million line of credit [00:25:40] The Federally Qualified Health Center The organization had a federally qualified healthcare center that couldn't affiliate under Inperium's governance structure Losing it would have left thousands of underserved people in Philadelphia without healthcare Jay brokered a deal with a local healthcare center to underwrite a new 501c3 and reapply for the federal grant Within seven days of recording, they will be a fully operational new federally qualified health center [00:29:00] Affiliation Is a Strategy, Not a Surrender Boards resist affiliation because they fear losing their identity; Inperium lets them keep it Affiliation is not concession; it is a strategic pivot to deal with the realities of the world For-profit businesses do this constantly; nonprofits tend to leave their pragmatic hats at the door No money, no mission; no margin, no mission; the work has to be run like a business   KEY QUOTES "Affiliation isn't concession. Affiliation isn't giving up. Affiliation is a strategy to pivot and deal with the realities of the world." - Jay Deppeler "If you have no money, you have no mission. If you have no margin, you have no mission." - Jay Deppeler CONNECT WITH JAY DEPPELER Website: http://www.inperium.org LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaydeppeler   Thanks for tuning in!

Craig Unger explains the infrastructure of the alleged treason, focusing on the Safari Club, a group of high-level intelligence officials who conducted "off-the-books" operations after the CIA faced congressional crackdowns in the 1970s. Bill Casey utilized this shadow network, employing his close friend John Shaheen as a "cutout" to facilitate meetings with Iranian arms dealers without attracting media attention. Unger reveals that the Hashemi brothers, who were ostensibly helping the Carter administration negotiate for the hostages, were actually double agents working for Casey. This covert channel was further supported by Israeli military intelligence (Aman), which confirmed that source Ari Ben-Menashe was indeed an operative and that a secret arms channel existed between Israel and Iran. Unger argues that Israel's participation in sabotaging the American election was a significant secret they went to great lengths to hide. The operation reportedly involved money laundering through front businesses to finance the illegal arms deals. (5/8)1920 BUSHEHR

In May 1940, President Franklin D. Roosevelt faced the daunting challenge of preparing a technologically lagging America for modern mechanized warfare following Hitler's invasion of France. FDR turned to Bill Knudsen, the Danish-born CEO of General Motors, who had a background as a heavyweight boxer and a veteran of the Fordassembly lines. Knudsen was a master of flexible mass production, a technique he perfected at Chevrolet that allowed for model changes without halting the entire assembly line. Unlike 19th-century methods, Knudsen's approach focused on a continuous flow of production and integrating new technologies into existing workflows. He was tasked with transforming the civilian economy—then focused on cars and refrigerators—into an "Arsenal of Democracy" capable of producing tanks, planes, and artillery at an unprecedented scale. This mobilization was not just about technology, but about Knudsen's belief that American industry could achieve the impossible when directed toward a single, patriotic goal. (1/4)1935

JOIN ANYTIME:https://www.heatherbaxter.com/n this episode, we dive into Esther chapters 4 and 5, where everything shifts from fear to bold action. Faced with a crisis that threatens her people, Esther is challenged to step into her purpose—even when it could cost her life. With encouragement from Mordecai, she begins to see that her position isn't accidental, but part of a bigger plan “for such a time as this.”We talk about what it looks like to wrestle with fear, make courageous decisions, and trust timing we don't fully understand. Esther doesn't rush—she pauses, fasts, and prepares before taking action. And when she finally steps forward, it's not loud or dramatic, but intentional and wise.Chapter 5 shows us that courage doesn't always mean immediate results. Esther takes a strategic approach, inviting the king and Haman to a banquet instead of blurting everything out. It's a reminder that bravery and wisdom often go hand in hand, and that waiting can be part of the process too.This conversation explores messy faith, quiet strength, and what it means to show up when it really matters—even if you're unsure, afraid, or not fully ready.

Bryan Kohberger pled guilty and is serving four consecutive life sentences for the murders of four University of Idaho students. No trial. No cross-examination. No jury verdict. And now, the forensic expert his own defense hired is alleging that the knife sheath — the only physical evidence tying Kohberger to the crime scene through DNA — had a chain of custody so flawed it could have been challenged and potentially excluded at trial. Brent Turvey, a forensic scientist with over seventy trials to his name, says the evidence bag's documentation was filled out after the fact by a single person and lacked the required signatures for each transfer between law enforcement. The defense team led by Anne Taylor never acted on his findings before Kohberger took the deal. Now that same defense team is publicly attacking Turvey for speaking — while simultaneously preparing a paid, closed-door presentation at a defense lawyers' conference titled "Lessons Learned from Kohberger," where attendees must sign confidentiality pledges. Former FBI agent Christopher Whitcomb's new book "Broken Plea" adds another layer — untested hair found at the scene that the FBI lab confirmed wasn't Kohberger's, and expert disagreement on whether one person could have carried out the attack. Eric Faddis, criminal defense attorney and former felony prosecutor, dissects the chain of custody allegations, the defense's contradictory behavior, and what it means that the evidence underneath a quadruple homicide plea deal was never subjected to adversarial testing in a courtroom.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What would you do if the pregnancy you carefully prepared for suddenly took an unexpected turn?In this powerful and deeply meaningful birth story, My Essential Birth Mama, Sarah, joins me to share the journey of her second pregnancy — one that began with a clear vision for a very different birth experience after a difficult first birth.Determined to do things differently, Sarah switched providers, chose midwifery care, hired a doula, and intentionally prepared both mentally and physically for the low-intervention birth she hoped to have. But during a routine ultrasound, everything changed. Faced with devastating news about her baby's health, Sarah and her husband had to navigate the emotional reality of carrying their son while not knowing how much time they would have with him.When labor began naturally at 31 weeks, something unexpected happened. Sarah experienced the calm, peaceful, unmedicated birth she had worked so hard to prepare for. After Benson was born, she and her husband were able to spend precious moments holding and loving their son, moments that would hold both heartbreak and healing.I'm so grateful Sarah was willing to come share Benson's story. This episode is about advocating for yourself in pregnancy, preparing for the birth you want, trusting your body, and finding meaning even in the hardest moments of motherhood.Here are some highlights from the episode:• Why Sarah chose to switch from an OB to a midwife after her first birth experience • How she and her husband prepared together for a different kind of birth • The daily mindset and physical preparation she focused on for an unmedicated birth • The routine ultrasound that revealed something unexpected about her baby • What it's like navigating pregnancy after receiving devastating news • How labor began naturally at 31 weeks • The peaceful, low-intervention birth experience she had hoped for • The precious moments they were able to spend holding and loving their son • How this birth brought both heartbreak and unexpected healing • Sarah's encouragement for mothers facing difficult pregnancy newsSarah's story is one that will stay with you long after the episode ends. It's a reminder that even when birth doesn't unfold the way we expect, it can still hold  love, meaning, and beauty.If this episode touches yourDon't forget to RATE & FOLLOW the Pregnancy & Birth Made Easy Podcast!Leave a Review! ⭐️ Here's how >> On Apple PodcastsFind “Pregnancy & Birth Made Easy” podcastSelect “Ratings and Reviews”Click the stars!Select “Write a Review” and tell us what was the most amazing, comforting, eye-opening thing that you loved! On SpotifyFind "Pregnancy & Birth Made Easy" podcastClick the 3 dots "..."Select "Rate podcast"Click the stars and write a quick review!FOLLOW "Pregnancy & Birth Made Easy" so you never miss an episode that makes pregnancy & birth feel easier!Here's how to do it in just 2 seconds:On Apple Podcasts → Tap the “+” Follow button in the top right corner of the show page.On Spotify → Tap the “Follow” button right under the show titlesLet's Connect!Join the Course! https://www.myessentialbirth.com/getstartedEmail: hello@myessentialbirth.com.  Follow @myessentialbirth on INSTAGRAM!

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Al Smith. Interview Purpose The purpose of this interview is to explore life transitions, resilience, and financial discipline through the lens of elite performance, using Al Smith’s journey from NFL All‑Pro to executive, entrepreneur, and community leader as a blueprint. The conversation highlights how preparation, education, mindset, and adaptability are essential when dreams evolve or abruptly change. This interview also serves to connect the experiences of professional athletes with those of small business owners and entrepreneurs, emphasizing that success in both arenas requires discipline, accountability, and long‑term thinking. Major Themes & Key Takeaways 1. Education as a Safety Net and Strategy Al Smith made the deliberate decision to finish his college degree before fully committing to the NFL, recognizing that professional sports offered no guarantees. This choice gave him leverage, confidence, and security—both mentally and financially—throughout his career. Key takeaway: Always secure something tangible before going “all in” on an uncertain opportunity. 2. Turning Fear into Fuel Smith openly discusses fear—fear of being cut, fear of competition, fear of uncertainty—and how he learned to convert fear into motivation rather than paralysis. He treated each season as if it were his last, approaching preparation with urgency and focus. Key takeaway: Fear is inevitable; how you respond to it determines longevity and success. 3. Competition Is Not the Enemy Competition played a central role in Smith’s development. Rather than avoiding it, he embraced it, understanding that growth requires discomfort. He credits adversity, pressure, and coaching challenges with sharpening his performance and character. Key takeaway: Competition strengthens discipline and reveals accountability. 4. Financial Literacy and Lifestyle Discipline Smith addresses the common financial pitfalls faced by professional athletes, many of which also apply to entrepreneurs: Lifestyle inflation Supporting others without boundaries Delegating financial decisions without understanding them Trying to maintain an image instead of sustainability Smith’s financial stability was aided by mentors, personal involvement in decisions, and a mindset focused on not owing—not just earning. Key takeaway: Financial success is not about income—it’s about control, habits, and awareness. 5. Mentorship and Environment Matter Smith emphasizes the value of surrounding himself with successful, disciplined people both on and off the field. Mentorship influenced how he thought about money, effort, competition, and leadership. Key takeaway: Proximity shapes thinking; environment influences outcomes. 6. Preparing for Life After the Dream Even while succeeding in the NFL, Smith planned for the transition ahead. This forward thinking led to opportunities in the front office, business, and leadership. He viewed this transition as a chance to open doors for others and to understand the business side of sports. Key takeaway: The end of one dream can be the beginning of a larger purpose. 7. Athletes and Entrepreneurs Face the Same Reality Smith draws a direct parallel between: Athletes competing yearly with no guarantees Entrepreneurs running businesses without security or routine Both require maximum effort, preparation beyond the clock, and resilience. Key takeaway: There is no 40‑hour workweek when you are building something of your own. Notable Quotes “I turned my fear into fire.” “There are no guarantees—every year is a one‑year deal.” “I treated every season like it was my last.” “You don’t want to owe. You want to own.” “Don’t be scared of competition.” “The gain outweighs the strain.” “Prepare so that if it ends tomorrow, you’re still standing.” Overall Message Al Smith’s interview is a powerful lesson in discipline, foresight, and adaptability. It reframes success as something built through preparation before opportunity arrives and sustained by humility, mentorship, and intentional decision‑making. His story reinforces that dreams evolve—but character, work ethic, and financial awareness determine whether those transitions become setbacks or stepping stones. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
