Podcasts about family ties

It's those Family Ties that can really choke the life out of you...In theatres tomorrow June 12th for a limited run before it hits VOD (and eventually Shudder), we get to look at a beautifully bent piece of cinema from one of Canada's up & coming storytellers who isn't afraid to get a little bit bent.  It's time for 'The Voices of Our Mother'.When a family matriarch falls seriously ill, relatives gather and discover their shared ancestral ties bind them in unexpected ways.From Writer/Director Mark O'Brien who you might remember as an actor from memorable turns in films like 'Arrival' and 'Nuremberg' and his debut feature 'The Righteous' gives us a horror laden family drama that is steeped in some of the classics from the past.We talked about his inspirations, working with a Canadian icon like Sheila McCarthy, his appreciation for his collaborators but locally and internationally and we got a little 'Basic; about our love of movies on physical media and so very much more.'The Voices of Our Mother' is in theatres now and on VOD platforms on June 19th

SCREEN QUEENS: "Cape Fear," "Paradise," and The Tonys!

In the Bible, cousins often serve as messengers, witnesses, and protectors.Cousins help preserve the identity of the Body of Christ, as they fill in the gap for friends and protectors. They help us look to the family of God for support, not the world.Jesus had a cousin, as did Ester, and Barnabas, all of whom helped spread the Gospel!Listen now on your favorite app — and share with someone who needs this.Keep up with the latest from Pastor Cyndi by stopping by her websites or following her on social media!Our socials:TikTok: @cgministriesInsta/Threads/FB: cynthiagarrisministriesYT: Cynthia Garris MinistriesFor more:CGMStreet TalkersOur authors:A.

I keep worrying, sister, brother."Ko: 그녀의 목소리는 작았지만 진지했다.En: Her voice was quiet but serious.Ko: 혜진은 소영의 말에 마음이 아팠다.En: Hyejin was hurt by Soyoung's words.Ko: 그녀도 자신의 고민이 있었지만, 가족의 고민을 들어줄 여유가 없었다.En: She also had her own concerns, but she didn't have the time to listen to her family's worries.Ko: "미안해, 소영아. 나도 네가 힘든 줄 몰랐어," 혜진이 사과했다.En: "I'm sorry, Soyounga. I didn't realize you were having a hard time," Hyejin apologized.Ko: 갑자기 민준이 목소리를 높였다.En: Suddenly, Minjun raised his voice.Ko: "우리 모두 분명히 바쁜 건 맞아. 그래도 조금 더 노력할 수 있잖아."En: "It's true that we're all busy. But we can make a little more effort, can't we?"Ko: 그의 말에 형제들 모두 잠시 조용해졌다.En: With his words, all the siblings fell silent for a moment.Ko: 잠시 후, 혜진이 고개를 들었다.En: After a while, Hyejin looked up.Ko: "알겠어, 내 스케줄을 조정해볼게. 조금 힘들어도 노력할게. 너희와 함께하는 게 정말 중요하다는 걸 알아."En: "Alright, I'll try to adjust my schedule. It might be tough, but I'll try. I know being with you all is really important."Ko: 소영도 고개를 끄덕였다.En: Soyoung nodded in agreement.Ko: "나도 너무 고민만 하지 않을게. 우리 자주 만나자."En: "I'll try not to worry so much. Let's meet often."Ko: 형제들은 서로를 보며 미소를 지었다.En: The siblings looked at each other and smiled.Ko: 이 시간, 이 장소에서 그들은 서로에게 약속을 했다.En: At this time, in this place, they made promises to each other.Ko: "같이 있지 않아도 서로 이해하고 응원해주자." 민준이 조용히 말했다.En: "Let's support and understand each other even if we're not together," Minjun said quietly.Ko: 한강 공원의 바람은 여전히 따뜻했다.En: The wind in Hangang Park was still warm.Ko: 형제들은 조금 더 밝고 가까이 있는 듯한 느낌으로 피크닉을 마무리했다.En: The siblings finished their picnic feeling a bit brighter and closer.Ko: 가족은 함께하는 것만으로도 충분히 강하다는 걸 다시 깨달았다.En: They realized once again that being together as a family makes them strong enough.

Transcript:No: Lyset fra den avtagende ettermiddagssola badet kysten i et gyllent skinn.En: The light from the waning afternoon sun bathed the coast in a golden glow.No: Amalfi-kysten bredte seg ut foran Elin, som sto alene på balkongen.En: The Amalfi Coast stretched out in front of Elin, who stood alone on the balcony.No: De hvite og pastellmalte husene klamret seg til de dramatiske klippene,

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Bonding Beyond Balaton: A Sibling Journey of Growth Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-05-16-22-34-01-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A tavaszi nap első sugarai átsütöttek a felhőkön, megvilágítva a Balatonhoz vezető tájat, ahogyan Áron, Réka és Zsófia a családi autóba szálltak.En: The first rays of the spring sun shone through the clouds, illuminating the landscape leading to Balaton as Áron, Réka, and Zsófia got into the family car.Hu: A reggeli harmat még ott pihent a virágokon és fűszálakon, amelyekkel teli volt a lassan húzódó országút széle.En: The morning dew still rested on the flowers and blades of grass lining the edges of the slowly stretching country road.Hu: A három testvér úton volt a híres magyar tó felé, de nemcsak a tavat, hanem valami többet is kerestek.En: The three siblings were on their way to the famous Hungarian lake, but they were searching for more than just the lake itself.Hu: Áron, a legfiatalabb, kíváncsian figyelte a tájat.En: Áron, the youngest, observed the landscape with curiosity.Hu: Élénk és optimista volt, bár úgy érezte, gyakran elsikkad a véleménye.En: He was lively and optimistic, though he often felt his opinion went unnoticed.Hu: Réka, az idősebb testvér, életerővel teli, ugyanakkor felelősségteljesen tartotta össze a családot.En: Réka, the older sibling, was full of vitality and also responsibly held the family together.Hu: Zsófia, a középső, igyekezett mindkét testvér közötti egyensúlyt fenntartani, de közben vágyott arra, hogy különlegessé váljon.En: Zsófia, the middle child, tried to maintain balance between her two siblings but yearned to become special.Hu: Miközben az autó a Balaton felé tartott, Áron próbált részt venni a családi beszélgetésekben.En: As the car headed towards Balaton, Áron tried to participate in the family conversations.Hu: Beszélni akart a hétvégére tervezett programokról, arról, hogy hova kirándulhatnak, mit nézhetnek meg.En: He wanted to talk about the plans for the weekend, where they could go hiking, and what they could see.Hu: A többiek azonban csak rálegyintettek, vagy figyelmen kívül hagyták.En: However, the others just brushed him off or ignored him.Hu: Az utazás közepén a kocsi hirtelen leállt.En: In the middle of the journey, the car suddenly stalled.Hu: Réka idegesen kérdezte, mi történt.En: Réka anxiously asked what had happened.Hu: Zsófia próbálta megnyugtatni őket, míg Áron egy hirtelen ötlettel előállva kijelentette, hogy ő megpróbál segítséget szerezni.En: Zsófia tried to calm them down, while Áron, suddenly inspired, declared that he would try to get help.Hu: A többiek haboztak, de nem volt sok választásuk.En: The others hesitated but had little choice.Hu: Áron kilépett a kocsiból, és elhatározta, hogy bizonyít.En: Áron stepped out of the car, determined to prove himself.Hu: Ahogyan Áron a közelben lakó emberektől kért segítséget, a többiek az autó mellett maradtak.En: As Áron sought help from the nearby residents, the others stayed by the car.Hu: Eleinte nehezére esett szót érteni a falubeliekkel, de kitartott.En: Initially, he struggled to communicate with the villagers, but he persevered.Hu: Réka és Zsófia némán nézték, hogyan próbálja megoldani a helyzetet.En: Réka and Zsófia watched silently as he tried to resolve the situation.Hu: Amikor Áron visszatért, elmesélte, hogyan talált egy közeli műhelyt, akik esetleg meg tudják javítani az autót.En: When Áron returned, he recounted how he found a nearby workshop that might be able to fix the car.Hu: Azonban az ügy nem ment zökkenőmentesen.En: However, the matter didn't go smoothly.Hu: Áron többszöri próbálkozás után is kudarcot vallott, ami feszültséget okozott.En: Despite Áron's repeated attempts, he failed, which caused tension.Hu: Réka végül türelmét vesztve kérdőre vonta Áront, amiért beleártja magát a dolgokba.En: Réka, eventually losing her patience, confronted Áron about meddling in things.Hu: Zsófia a két testvér közé állt, próbálva békíteni őket, de ekkor felszínre törtek a régen elfojtott érzések.En: Zsófia stood between the two siblings, trying to mediate, but long-repressed feelings surfaced.Hu: Végül Réka és Zsófia is rájöttek, hogy Áron tényleg csak segíteni akart.En: In the end, Réka and Zsófia realized that Áron truly just wanted to help.Hu: Együtt fogtak hozzá megjavítani a hibát, és közösen, kitartóan dolgoztak.En: Together, they began to repair the fault, working persistently as a team.Hu: Az út végül folytatódott, és elérték a Balaton partját.En: The journey eventually continued, and they reached the shores of Balaton.Hu: A tó látványa csodálatos volt, és a testvérek végre megnyugodtak.En: The sight of the lake was magnificent, and the siblings finally relaxed.Hu: Áron, bár fáradt volt, elégedetten mosolygott.En: Though Áron was tired, he smiled contentedly.Hu: Érezte, hogy az apró változtatások, amelyeket a családi dinamikában elindított, hosszú távon javítani fogják a kapcsolatukat.En: He felt that the small changes he initiated in the family dynamics would improve their relationship in the long run.Hu: A család együtt tölthette el a napot a Balaton partján, újra felfedezve egymás értékeit.En: The family spent the day together on the shores of Balaton, rediscovering each other's values.Hu: Áron végül megerősödve, magabiztosan tért haza, tudva, hogy hangja végre hallatszott.En: Áron, ultimately strengthened and confident, returned home knowing that his voice was finally heard.

Tears rolled down inadvertently.Zh: 这场突如其来的情绪爆发让整个家庭愕然，也带来了意料之外的坦诚对话。En: This unexpected emotional outburst stunned the entire family but also led to an unanticipated yet candid conversation.Zh: 家豪渐渐明白，勇于袒露脆弱远比隐藏不安更有力量。En: Jiahao gradually realized that having the courage to reveal vulnerability was far more powerful than hiding insecurities.Zh: 明月意识到，沟通才是维系家庭和睦的关键。En: Mingyue realized that communication was the key to maintaining family harmony.Zh: 心宇在释怀后，感受到一种久违的安心和希望，因为他知道，不论如何，他的家人会一直支持着他。En: After his release, Xinyu felt a long-lost sense of peace and hope, because he knew that, no matter what, his family would always support him.Zh: 茶馆依旧宁静，阳光依旧温暖，家人的心却更加紧密地连结在一起。En: The teahouse remained tranquil, the sunlight remained warm, yet the hearts of the family were more closely connected.Zh: 会议变成了一次理解和爱的开始，让困扰已久的家庭关系迈出了第一步。En: The gathering turned into a beginning of understanding and love, taking the first step in resolving the long-standing family issues.

We're glad you are joining our discussion on the hidden complexities of kinship care and discover how faith, community, and wisdom can transform the way we care for children through the foster care system. We're exploring critical aspects family support in complex situations involving kinship care including the pressures on CPS, the need for equipping kinship caregivers to care for kids from hard places.As child welfare systems evolve, so do the tensions between maintaining biological bonds and seeking the best for the child's safety and well-being. Herbie Newell, Chelsea Sobolik, and Rick Morton delve into the realities of kinship care—uncovering the heartbreaking stories of children caught in systemic challenges, while emphasizing the importance of preparation, humility, and the church's role in restoring hope. You'll discover how courts are rethinking placement priorities, the importance of culturally sensitive parenting, and how community and faith-based solutions can fill critical gaps.We break down practical ways to support kinship families—from resource provision to advocating for policies that prioritize the child's best interest. You'll gain insight into the moral and biblical foundations that compel us to see every child as made in God's image and to foster a church that advocates and cares across cultural and racial lines. This episode reveals why common sense, prayer, and active compassion are the most powerful tools in transforming child welfare from the inside out.Whether you're a foster parent, church leader, policymaker, or concerned citizen, this conversation challenges you to examine your role in transforming a broken system into a network of love, support, and justice. If you believe every child deserves a safe, loving family—and that the Church has a vital part to play—then this episode is a must-listen.Join us around the table as we explore the intersections of faith, policy, and compassion in fostering resilient, healthy families.

Her published novels include Camera Ready, Princess Smile, and For Position Only, which was a BookLife by Publishers Weekly Editor's Pick, and Summer's Blood, which received the coveted Kirkus starred review. An advertising and PR executive, Adele spent most of her career on the Las Vegas Strip, an experience that gave color to her latest novel, Slipper Girl. She is currently working on the sequel to Slipper Girl as well as Deadly Sins, a collection of short stories.   Adele owns a marketing consulting firm in San Diego, California, where she resides with her husband and two cats.   In my book review, I stated Slipper Girl is a contemporary fiction by ​Adele Royce​. Although this is the second in the series, one doesn't have to read the first book to know what is going on in the second. We meet Skylar, a Vice President of Marketing, but soon learn she has a past she'd rather keep hidden. And she's able to do just that until her estranged mother shows up in Las Vegas and threatens to topple everything Skylar has built.   I loved Skylar, the self-made woman who feels she must be perfect to atone for her past. And then, when her past came blasting in, I instinctively understood that she felt she had nowhere to turn. When blackmail and deception come rushing in, she doesn't know who to trust, so she simply trusts herself - even when I was begging her to call her father!   If you love a story that keeps you on the edge of your seat, has redemption and resilience, and shows you that family bonds are not to be messed with, then you'll love this story!   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   You can follow Author Adele Royce Website: https://adeleroyce.com/ FB: @AdeleRoyceAuthor X: @Adele_Royce IG: @adele_royce_author   Purchase Slipper Girl on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/3PaX5Xv Ebook: https://amzn.to/4d9qT0w   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

The hosts open with jokes and weekend recaps, including dates, grilling, cleaning, and taking kids to Dave & Buster's, before discussing how social media and good weather create pressure to go out. They reflect on attending funerals, how Black communities try to celebrate life, and how extended family traditions and reunions are fading, leading many to “make” their own family while navigating tense relatives.

Danny Ponce looks at sports cars, and the Lawrences search for food. Eventually, they meet up and absorb some Roman culture through archaeology and a famous ristorante. Andy surprises them with the gifts they wanted, and takes them to meet Pope St. John Paul II. Joey gives him a friendship bracelet, then they all go to Easter service and sing another song.Aqueducts? Check. Papal audience? Got it. Chili dogs? None better than Roman!

"Did I do that?" Yes, in fact, he did. After a successful career as a writer on hit sitcoms like "Mork and Mindy," "The Nanny," and "Married with Children," podcast guest Alan Eisenstock managed to step from television writing rooms and reinvent himself as one of the publishing industry's most sought-after collaborators.  His most recent books include New York Times best-selling memoir Life's Too Short, written with Darius Rucker; Hang Time: My Life in Basketball, with NBA legend Elgin Baylor; the crime novel Flipping Boxcars, with Cedric the Entertainer; and the just-published memoir Arsenio, with comedian and pioneering talk show host Arsenio Hall—an immediate New York Times best-seller. "It was great, it was lucrative," he writes of his television career, which included a memorable turn behind the scenes of the ABC sitcom "Family Ties," where he came up with one of the most famous catch-phrases in television history—delivered in almost every episode by the show's breakout character Urkel, played by Jaleel White. "But I longed to return to my first love, writing prose, seeing my words in print, full-time." Join us for a conversation on what it takes for a writer to leap from the top of the Nielsen ratings to the New Releases table at the local bookstore, and to give enduring voice to some of our leading artists, athletes, newsmakers, and influencers.  Learn more about Alan Eisenstock: Website Raiders: The Story of the Greatest Fan Film Ever Made Please support the sponsors who support our show: Gotham Ghostwriters' Gathering of the Ghosts Ritani Jewelers Daniel Paisner's Balloon Dog Daniel Paisner's SHOW: The Making and Unmaking of a Network Television Pilot Heaven Help Us by John Kasich Unforgiving: Lessons from the Fall by Lindsey Jacobellis Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Libro.fm (ASTOLDTO) | 2 audiobooks for the price of 1 when you start your membership Film Freaks Forever! podcast, hosted by Mark Jordan Legan and Phoef Sutton Everyday Shakespeare podcast A Mighty Blaze podcast The Writer's Bone Podcast Network Misfits Market (WRITERSBONE) | $15 off your first order  Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Wizard Pins (WRITERSBONE) | 20% discount

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Rediscovering Family Ties Amidst Hortobágy's Spring Bloom Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-04-18-22-34-01-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A Hortobágy Nemzeti Park hatalmas füves területein lila és sárga mezei virágok tündököltek a tavaszi napon.En: In the vast grassy areas of the Hortobágy Nemzeti Park, purple and yellow wildflowers shone brilliantly in the spring day.Hu: A szél lágyan fújdogált, simogatva a fák lombjait.En: The wind gently blew, caressing the leaves of the trees.Hu: Boldizsár mélyet szippantott a friss levegőből.En: Boldizsár took a deep breath of fresh air.Hu: A húsvéti találkozó gondolata vegyes érzésekkel töltötte el.En: The thought of the Easter gathering filled him with mixed feelings.Hu: Mérges volt, tele régi nézeteltérésekkel, legfőképpen Loránddal.En: He was angry, full of old disagreements, especially with Loránd.Hu: De Borbála, kedves nővére, hajthatatlan volt.En: But Borbála, his dear sister, was unwavering.Hu: Szeretettel invitálta őt az ünnepelésre.En: She warmly invited him to the celebration.Hu: A piknik területe egy réten volt kiterítve, ahol puha pokrócokon székely kapus tojást kerestek a gyerekek.En: The picnic area was spread out on a meadow, where children searched for eggs under a székely kapu on soft blankets.Hu: Borbála mosolyogva integetett Boldizsárnak, miközben Loránd a bogrács körül szorgoskodott.En: Borbála waved at Boldizsár with a smile, while Loránd busied himself around the stew pot.Hu: „Gyere, csatlakozz hozzánk!” kiáltotta Borbála, próbálva eloszlatni az első feszültségeket.En: “Come, join us!” shouted Borbála, trying to dispel the initial tension.Hu: Boldizsár lassan közeledett, és üdvözölte unokatestvérét.En: Boldizsár approached slowly, greeting his cousin.Hu: Loránd udvariasan bólintott, bár kimértsége még ott lebegett.En: Loránd nodded politely, though his restraint still lingered.Hu: „Boldizsár, felszolgálod a pörköltet?” kérdezte Loránd.En: “Boldizsár, will you serve the stew?” Loránd asked.Hu: Boldizsár elmerengett, de aztán beleegyezett.En: Boldizsár hesitated but then agreed.Hu: Nem azért jött, hogy haragot keltsen, hanem hogy békét találjon.En: He hadn't come to stir up anger, but to find peace.Hu: Ahogy elindult a húsvéti tojásvadászat, a mező tele volt nevetéssel és izgalommal.En: As the Easter egg hunt began, the meadow was filled with laughter and excitement.Hu: Miközben Boldizsár a bokrok közt keresgélt, egy ismerős, régi tárgyra bukkant.En: While Boldizsár searched among the bushes, he stumbled upon a familiar, old object.Hu: Egészen meglepődött: egy régi vésőmet, amit édesapja adott neki gyerekkorában.En: He was quite surprised: an old chisel his father had given him in childhood.Hu: Azonnal felidéződtek benne a szép emlékek, a régi családi együttlétek melege.En: Immediately, fond memories of old family gatherings warmed him.Hu: Loránd közelebb lépett, látva Boldizsár meghatott arcát.En: Loránd stepped closer, seeing Boldizsár's touched expression.Hu: „Emlékszel, mikor apánk együtt tanított minket faragni?” kérdezte mosolyogva.En: “Do you remember when our father taught us to carve together?” he asked with a smile.Hu: Boldizsár bólintott, szemeiben némi könny csillant.En: Boldizsár nodded, a hint of tears in his eyes.Hu: „Talán ideje, hogy megbocsássunk és előretekinthessünk” folytatta Loránd, a múltbeli nézeteltéréseket lezárni vágyva.En: “Perhaps it's time to forgive and look forward,” Loránd continued, wanting to close past disagreements.Hu: Borbála csatlakozott hozzájuk, kedves szavakkal próbálva egymás felé terelni testvérét és unokatestvérét.En: Borbála joined them, using kind words to steer her brother and cousin toward each other.Hu: Hosszas beszélgetés következett, ahol Boldizsár rájött, hogy a családi kötelékek mennyire fontosak, és hogy a különbségek megszépítik az életet.En: A lengthy conversation followed, where Boldizsár realized how important family ties were, and how differences beautify life.Hu: A nap végére Boldizsár belátta, hogy a családi kötelékek mindennél erősebbek.En: By the end of the day, Boldizsár realized that family bonds were stronger than anything.Hu: Loránddal közösen eldöntötték, hogy szem előtt tartják a tradíciók értékét, de tiszteletben tartják Boldizsár modern szemléletét is.En: Together with Loránd, they decided to keep the values of traditions in mind but also to respect Boldizsár's modern perspective.Hu: A természet ölelésében, a Hortobágy varázslatos tájai között újra felfedezték a családi kapcsolatokat és a közös emlékek erejét, amik közösen tartották össze őket.En: In the embrace of nature, amidst the enchanting landscapes of the Hortobágy, they rediscovered their family connections and the power of shared memories that held them together.Hu: Ezután Boldizsár már nem csak a természetben, de a családjában is megtalálta a békéjét.En: After this, Boldizsár found peace not only in nature but also in his family.Hu: Együtt sétáltak tovább a virágok között, élvezve a tavasz békés hangulatát, a húsvét igazi lényegét, amely a szeretetről és összetartozásról szólt.En: They walked together among the flowers, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere of spring, the true essence of Easter, which was about love and belonging.

Family Ties: Where We've Been, Where We're Going—Stewardship, Sacred Knowledge, and Finding Your VoiceCo-hosts Faridah Abdul-Tawwab Brown and Frank Abdul Shaheed open a new season of The Family Ties by reflecting on over 30 (Actually 31) prior episodes about the family as a necessary institution for human flourishing, then shifting to “where we're going” amid 21st-century challenges for the human family. Faridah recaps taking their teenage daughters with relatives to Senegal so they could study Quran memorization, experience a society prioritizing sacred knowledge, develop responsibility and self-sufficiency, and gain sensitivity through exposure to rural poverty and different socioeconomic realities, then return home committed to continuing Quran study and sharing its message. Frank recounts surgery that removed severe pain but temporarily took his voice, leading him to reflect on the human voice as leadership and calling people to proper purpose, and framing the show's renewed mission as calling humanity back to interdependence and purpose while inviting listener engagement online.00:00 Welcome Back Family Ties00:19 Where Weve Been Going01:50 Stewardship And Responsibility03:05 Senegal Quran Journey06:05 Lessons From Poverty09:42 Honoring Parents Sacrifice13:40 Sensitivity Needs Protection17:36 Franks Surgery Lost Voice23:15 New Season Call To Purpose24:32 Final Thanks And FarewellSend us Fan MailCopyright 2026

Released in 1985, Teen Wolf was a low-budget teen comedy (around $1–1.2 million) directed by Rod Daniel and starring Michael J. Fox. Filmed primarily in California, the production leaned into practical effects, with extensive prosthetic makeup used to create the film's now-iconic werewolf look. At the time of filming in 1984, Fox was already gaining popularity from Family Ties, but had not yet reached full movie-star status.The film became an unexpected box office hit, grossing over $80 million worldwide. Its release shortly after Back to the Future significantly boosted its visibility, helping turn it into a VHS-era favourite. While critical reception was mixed, audiences connected with its blend of teen comedy and fantasy, and it has since earned a lasting cult status, even spawning an animated series and later adaptations.TRAILER GUY PLOT SYNOPSISIn a quiet town… where high school is a battlefield… one teenager is about to discover that fitting in… is overrated.He's not the star athlete.

Co-hosts Faridah Abdul-Tawwab Brown and Frank Abdul Shaheed return after about a year to launch a new season of The Family Ties Show: A Prescription for Society, thanking listeners and explaining their hiatus, including Frank's emergency surgery that temporarily affected his speech and required rehabilitation. They frame the family as an instrument and “pair” that supports society and extend this to the “human family,” arguing that global and local events are interconnected and should be evaluated by their impact on family and human dignity. Frank describes how heavy snowfall prompted neighborly support, while Faridah shares her new work with a human rights organization in Mississippi and a sobering visit to Medgar Evers' home, noting a plaque was replaced after being hit by gunfire amid neighborhood violence. They invite audience engagement as they discuss serious, faith-informed reflections on today's polarizing challenges.00:00 Season Return Greetings00:43 Yearlong Hiatus Explained01:24 Surgery And Recovery02:34 Family As Human Lens03:51 Snowstorm Neighbor Lessons05:37 Faith Guidance And Signs08:10 Invite Audience To Join08:47 Politics Through Family10:23 Human Dignity Framework12:09 Medgar Evers Home Visit15:17 Mississippi Reflections17:07 Season Vision ClosingThis podcast is about family life as a means to address current problems in American society.

It was November 15, 2004, 52-year-old Peter Porco woke up like he always did: early, well before his alarm, with a few minutes to gather his thoughts in the quiet of his Delmar, New York, home. Peter was a fixture in the local legal community, serving as a state Appellate Division court clerk. Peter got out of bed, walked to the bathroom, and stood at the sink.  He then made his way to the kitchen to pack his lunch for the day, just like any other workday. He always enjoyed the quiet mornings before the day started. He performed his morning routine like he always did. He started to load the dishwasher. He packed his lunch. He even wrote a check to pay a parking ticket.  Peter was known as someone you could count on to be there every day, doing his job no matter what. So when Peter failed to show up to work, one of his coworkers was sent to his home to check on him. When he arrived at the Porco home, something immediately stood out. The house was eerily quiet, the blinds drawn. He tried calling the landline. No answer. He called the police.  Officers arrived on the scene and approached the front door. He noticed something strange: a smear of blood on the doorknob, small droplets trailing down the porch.  The front door was slightly ajar. With a sense of dread, Officers opened the door. And that's when he saw it. Peter Porco was on the ground, his face covered in blood and his eyes wide open. Peter was dead.
