Podcasts about Finke

Deep in the Australian Outback, on the bank of the Finke river, stands a modest two-room house. Albert Namatjira built it for his family as his fame grew, but their time there was cut short. Today, the rise, fall, and enduring legacy of one of Australia's most important artists. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

James Finke is back on the podcast to talk about apologetics and why Christians should be ready to explain what we believe and why we believe it. He's passionate about making this accessible to regular people like us, and we dig into the historical evidence for Jesus, his resurrection, and the early church. But this isn't about winning arguments, it's about being prepared when someone you love starts asking questions. James shares a story that changed him: an acquaintance died unexpectedly after they'd talked casually about Jesus. It left him asking, what if our silence costs someone the chance to hear the Gospel? That hit me hard. If we truly believe Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, shouldn't we be willing to have those hard conversations with the people we love? Sometimes you're not meant to bring someone all the way in one conversation. Sometimes you're just supposed to be a rock in their shoe, leaving them with a question they can't shake. Learn what you believe. Understand why you believe it. Love people enough to have difficult conversations. And trust God with what happens after you plant the seed.

Morphing from racer to coach and why his personality was perfect for the role. The constant thirst for information on how to be a better athlete which gave his academy international acclaim. Branching out and tackling desert enduros as well as memories of Finke in a milestone year for the race. A podium in the Castrol 6-hour - a late circuit racing bloom. Childhood memories of the Sydney Showground Speedway a making the move into Midgets (Speedcars). A 4-wheel title win and a Sprintcar crash which took its toll. Plus the little known Supercars test and the juggle of trying to coach Matt Mladin and James Stewart Stateside. In the midst of a ripper conversation we don’t get to every yarn….like his stunt coordination role on the recent Mad Max Movies - Fury Road and Furiosa for example - but if you find yourself wanting more check out his excellent new book ‘The Stephen Gall Story: No Easy Way’ available for order at www.noeasyway.com.au Head to Rusty's Facebook, Twitter or Instagram and give us your feedback and let us know who you want to hear from on Rusty's Garage.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Imara sits down for a vulnerable conversation with Minnesota State Representative Leigh Finke, the first trans woman ever elected to the MN House of Representatives. In her time in office, Finke has focused on policies that expand housing and healthcare access and cement civil rights protections, most notably a trans refuge law that includes some of the strongest legal protections for gender-affirming care in the nation.But Rep. Finke's time in office has been filled with turmoil. In June of last year, her friend and MN House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband were killed in a politically motivated murder. And, more recently, Minneapolis was besieged by ICE, which resulted in the killing of two citizens. In this episode, Rep. Finke gets real about how hard it is to be a trans legislator in today's political environment and what motivates her to keep fighting.This week's Trans Joy features Trina Tate, an educator who develops mindfulness curricula for public school students.Send your Trans Joy recommendations to translash_podcast @ translash [dot] org Follow TransLash Media @translashmedia on TikTok, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky, and Facebook.Follow Imara Jones on Instagram (@Imara_jones_), Threads (@imara_jones_), Bluesky (@imarajones.bsky.social), X (@ImaraJones)Follow Representative Leigh Finke on Instagram (@leighformn)Follow Trina Tate on Instagram (@pillowwizard) Hosted on Acast.

Today we interview opera singer and songwriter Emily E. Finke.  She was joining us from Florida, and was kind enough to talk about her work and music in general.

In this compelling interview, Dr. Alex Iantaffi interviews transgender pioneer and Minnesota State Representative Leigh Finke. They discuss cross-movement solidarity, the recent militarized occupation of Minnesota by ICE during Operation Metro Surge, the impact of the current political violence on trans communities, especially trans women, and on Leigh herself, and the importance of community organizing and political engagement in the fight for all our civil rights.Leigh Finke is honored to serve as State Representative for District 66A. Prior to holding office she worked as a journalist, media creator, and documentary filmmaker. In 2022, she became the first out trans woman elected to the Minnesota Legislature. During her first two terms in office, Leigh has advocated for 2SLGBTQIA+ equality, abortion rights, prison justice, and environmental equity. She chairs the House Reproductive Freedom Caucus and serves as Co-Vice Chair of the Judiciary Committee. In her personal time, Leigh enjoys writing, painting, traveling, skateboarding, and organizing community events, and exploring Minnesota's parks with her kids.A few invitations and takeaways from the episode:Cross-movement solidarity is essential because our liberation is tied to one another.Trans, Two-Spirit, nonbinary, and/or gender expansive people are part of and belong in all communities.Engage in local and state elections to support 2SLGBTQ+ rights.Build community networks for mutual support and safety.Advocate for policies that protect civil rights and gender-affirming care, especially for minors.Educate yourselves and others about the systemic nature of injustice and resistance.Find out more about Leigh Finke at the following links:https://www.leighformn.com/about https://linktr.ee/leighformn24 https://www.instagram.com/leighformn/  Instagram: GenderStoriesHosted by Alex IantaffiMusic by Maxwell von RavenGender Stories logo by Lior Effinger-Weintraub

Ellie was joined by State Rep. Leigh Finke from district 66A in the Twin Cities to talk about her experience at No Kings and the state of LGBTQ protections in Minnesota. The post Ellie Krug with State Rep. Leigh Finke (4/3/26) first appeared on AM 950.

A year ago, I stood up in a Minnesota committee hearing and made a case so clear that Democrat Rep. Leigh Finke got up and walked out mid-testimony.This is what I said — and why it matters more now than ever.In this video, I break down the argument I made about the Women's Athletics Exemption in the Minnesota Human Rights Act, why the distinction between sex and gender identity matters in law, and what Finke's walkout tells us about where this debate is really headed.https://x.com/WalterHudson⬇️ Watch, think critically, and decide for yourself.

Democrat lawmakers in the Minnesota Capitol have been blaming me for Leigh Finke getting doxxed — because I shared Finke's own public comments about kids needing access to pornography. There's just one problem: I'm the one who authored the anti-doxxing bills. They're the ones who voted them down.In this video, I break down the hallway confrontations, the actual legislative record, and the breathtaking hypocrisy of politicians who oppose residential privacy protections — and then cry foul when their public statements go viral.I categorically oppose doxxing. I oppose residential harassment. I wrote the bills to prove it. Let's look at the receipts.

It's only January and we're already pissed. Your Feminist Buzzkills are officially BACK with our first pod of 2026, and we're ready to fuck some shit up.

The first openly trans member in the Minnesota State Legislature and chair of the Reproductive Freedom Caucus dives into all of the anti-trans healthcare assaults that the Trump Administration dropped over the holidays, and brings us updates on the tragic ICE shooting of Renee Nicole Good.  We know we say this often (and it's always true ofc), but this is absolutely a pod you won't want to miss! Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y'all. We gotchu. OPERATION SAVE ABORTION: Check out our NEW Operation Save Abortion workshop, recorded a live  from Netroots Nation 2025 that'll train you in coming for anti-abobo lawmakers, spotting and fighting against fake clinics, AND gears you up on how to help someone in a banned state access abortion.

On this episode of the Mission Matters Podcast, Matthew Ellison and Ted Esler talk with Ryan Finke, CEO of International Friendships, Inc. about why international student ministry is one of the most open doors in global missions and how local churches can step into it with simple hospitality and friendship. Finke explains that 70–80% of international students never enter an American home even though most want an American friend, and he shares how IFI connects volunteers with students to ease culture shock, answer spiritual questions, and spark disciple-making that reaches families and marketplaces worldwide. The conversation covers shifting enrollment trends (fewer Chinese students, rising Indian students), the need for cross-cultural training, practical ways to serve students from airport pickup to grocery runs, and how digital strategies can extend ministry to remote enrollees overseas. You'll get a clear vision for church-led mobilization that welcomes the stranger, builds genuine friendships, and advances the Great Commission right in their own city.The Mission Matters Podcast is a place to talk about the importance of our Mission as Christians. The Mission Matters is a partnership of Missio Nexus and Sixteen:Fifteen, who have a shared passion to mobilize God's people to be a part of His mission.
