Send us a textBarriers don't bury the church; they clarify the mission. The Book of Acts reveals a pattern in which every barrier is followed by a fresh witness to Jesus. In this episode, Bishop Wright has a conversation with Bishop Justin Holcomb using Acts as the centerpiece. From language and culture gaps to political pressure and outrage cycles, they discuss how a consecrated voice—rooted in promise, not panic—cuts through the noise and opens doors for real renewal. Their conversation points toward a practical path forward: witness over winning, promise over pressure, and trust that the Holy Spirit will write the next paragraph of the church's story. Listen in for the full conversation.The Rt. Rev. Dr. Justin S. Holcomb was ordained and consecrated as the fifth bishop of the Diocese of Central Florida on June 10, 2023. He was elected at a special Diocesan Convention on Jan. 14, 2023.A native Floridian, the bishop earned his Ph.D. in theological studies from Emory University and has both a Master of Arts in theological studies and a Master of Arts in Christian thought from Reformed Theological Seminary as well as a B.A. in biblical studies from Southeastern University.

Since coming to Washington, DC in April 2025, Congressman Randy Fine has risen to become one of the most highly effective communicators on Capitol Hill, clearly articulating the importance of implementing principled reforms and boldly addressing challenges and opportunities we face in America today. His messages remind us of President Ronald Reagan's smart responses, explaining in a simple language what we are facing as Americans, and presenting the unvarnished truth. Key topics: The U.S. economy, reforms, housing costs and illegal immigration. Venezuela | Maduro captured and the future of Latin America. Iran protests and the Tehran regime's brutal response. According to recent published reports as of January 12, 2026, over 500 protesters have been killed and more than 10,000 protesters have been arrested. NYC Mayor Mamdani IHRA revocation - scraps the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's definition of anti-Semitism and lifts restrictions on boycotting Israel. Rabbis express serious concerns regarding the safety of Jews in NYC. Developments in the Gaza Strip, Judea and Samaria also known as the West Bank, and the peace in the Middle East. Congressman Fine proposed a bill in December 2025, “No Welfare for Noncitizens” Act, which would prohibit all non-citizens from receiving federal public benefits. The federal government is projected to spend $177 billion dollars on welfare for noncitizens between 2024 and 2034, while current debt is $38 trillion dollars. Bio: Randy Fine was elected to represent Florida's 6th Congressional District in April of 2025 and serves on the House Foreign Affairs and the Education and Workforce Committee. A third-generation Floridian, Randy built a career as a successful entrepreneur, founding and running businesses in retail, technology, and hospitality. Randy's retirement didn't last long. In 2016, he was elected to the Florida House, where he served the maximum eight years before moving on to the Florida Senate and then Congress. During his time in Tallahassee, he chaired five committees, passed more than forty bills, and became known as a strong advocate for school choice, tough immigration enforcement, and protecting children from harmful ideologies. As the only Jewish Republican in the Florida Legislature, Randy led the fight to make Florida the safest state in America for Jewish families and people of faith. His colleagues and national Jewish organizations honored him with the nickname “The Hebrew Hammer” for his work opposing terrorism and combatting antisemitism. The son of two public school teachers, Randy graduated magna cum laude from Harvard College with a degree in government and later earned his MBA from Harvard Business School, where he graduated with high distinction as one of the youngest Baker Scholars in decades. americasrt.com (https://americasrt.com/) https://ileaderssummit.org/ | https://jerusalemleaderssummit.com/ America's Roundtable on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/americas-roundtable/id1518878472 X: @RepFine @ileaderssummit @americasrt1776 @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk @JTitMVirginia America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

X: @RepFine @ileaderssummit @americasrt1776 @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk @JTitMVirginia Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with U.S. Congressman Randy Fine. Randy Fine was elected to represent Florida's 6th Congressional District in April of 2025 and serves on the House Foreign Affairs and the Education and Workforce Committee. A third-generation Floridian, Randy built a career as a successful entrepreneur, founding and running businesses in retail, technology, and hospitality. At 40, he retired from the private sector to focus on raising his two sons, Jacob and David, with his wife, Wendy. Randy's retirement didn't last long. In 2016, he was elected to the Florida House - before moving on to the Florida Senate and then Congress. As the only Jewish Republican in the Florida Legislature, Randy led the fight to make Florida the safest state in America for Jewish families and people of faith. Randy graduated magna cum laude from Harvard College with a degree in government and later earned his MBA from Harvard Business School. Topics: 1) Update on the U.S. economy, inflation, grocery prices and cost of gas. The inflation rate under President Biden's administration was 9.1% (year-over-year, as measured by the Consumer Price Index), which occurred in June 2022. This was the highest rate in approximately 40 years. Through President Trump's leadership on the economic front, the high inflation rate has dropped to 3%. The record high inflation under the Biden-Harris administration pushed up grocery prices to an all-time high. Congressman Fine addresses the concerns of the high cost of living with a clear explanation. Gas prices under the Biden administration surged to a high of $5.016 per gallon for regular unleaded, recorded on June 14, 2022. Today, gas prices have dropped to a national average of $2.93, with the average gas price in Mississippi dropping to around $2.57 per gallon of regular unleaded. Today, Democrats are running elections on "affordability" while facts clearly reveal that they created the economic crisis in the first place. It was the Biden administration's policies voted by Democratic Party members of Congress which have hurt American families and the US economy. The conversation focuses on how decent hard-working Americans will benefit from the tax cuts including no tax on tips, no tax on overtime and the removal of taxes on social security impacting retirees. 2) The rise of anti-Semitism in America with a focus on polling showing that anti-Israel sentiment is rising on the Republican side, especially among young voters. 3) President Trump's efforts to curtail the flow of drugs from Venezuela by targeting boats transporting cocaine to America. In the US, around 42 million people had used cocaine at some point in their lifetime as of 2024. An estimated 22,174 people died from a cocaine-involved overdose in 2024. 4) Bringing to the forefront how NATO member Croatia sold illicit Iranian oil stored in Croatian government facilities. The illegal scheme (operating between 2022 and 2024) where nearly one million barrels of sanctioned Iranian oil were allegedly stored in a Croatian facility before being sold as Malaysian oil to evade U.S. sanctions. Report: "A civil forfeiture complaint was filed early this year in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia alleging that $47 million in proceeds from the sale of nearly one million barrels of Iranian petroleum is forfeitable as property of, or affording a person a source of influence over, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) or its Qods Force (IRGC-QF), designated Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs). 5) The China threat. 6) Focusing on Congressman Randy Fine's effort in co-sponsoring the bill The Veterans' Assuring Critical Care Expansions to Support Service members (ACCESS) Act of 2025 with Chairman Mike Bost, House Veterans Affairs Committee, a Marine veteran. americasrt.com (https://americasrt.com/) https://ileaderssummit.org/ | https://jerusalemleaderssummit.com/ America's Roundtable on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/americas-roundtable/id1518878472 X: @RepFine @ileaderssummit @americasrt1776 @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk @JTitMVirginia America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

Inside the elegant lobby, he caught up with his friend **Jeremy**, who was performing beautiful live piano music that filled the entire hotel with Disney charm.While at the Grand, Remy explored the brand-new bar, **The Perch**, an elevated and modern addition to the resort's classy lineup of lounges. However, there was one small letdown — no tequila on the menu! As a self-proclaimed margarita man, Remy couldn't help but joke about the lack of his favorite spirit while enjoying the relaxing vibe of this new Floridian hangout.Next up on **Ride of the Week**, Remy revs things up with a deep dive into **EPCOT's Test Track**, discussing its high-speed thrills, design innovations, and what makes it such an iconic part of the park's futuristic spirit.

What does it really mean for a whiskey to be “local”? Is it about where the grains come from, the climate where the barrels age, the people who make it, or something deeper about place and identity?In this episode, we sit down with Will and Ric at St. Augustine Distillery in the nation's oldest city to talk about what makes their whiskey unmistakably Floridian. We get into how heat and humidity shape the barrel, why sourcing from nearby farms matters, and how a distillery can reflect the character of a community rather than just operate inside it.This is a conversation about craft, patience, environment, and pride. And it might change the way you think about where whiskey flavor really comes from.If you enjoy stories about people building something with intention, this one is for you.Learn more about St. Augustine at https://www.staugustinedistillery.com/Follow us for more whiskey and fun over on Instagram, TikTok and even YouTube @thewhiskeyrockspodcast

In part three of our deep dive into Archbold Biological Station and its 10,500-acre working cattle operation, Buck Island Ranch, we sit down with assistant ranch manager, Mary Margaret Hardee, a lifelong Floridian whose path winds through ranching, conservation, and the cultural fabric of wild Florida.Growing up on a family ranch in Chiefland, Mary is no stranger to early morning saddling horses.

Off the saddle, she's the co-host of Herding Her Story with Gina Tran, a podcast spotlighting women shaping the future of ranching and land stewardship.In our conversation Mary Margaret shares her family's story, how her upbringing informs her role today, and the balancing act of protecting both natural resources and a way of life that has endured for generations. We also talk about the future of ranching in Florida, the pressures landowners face, and how storytelling can shape the next chapter and generation for conservation-minded agriculture.If you've ever wondered how science and tradition meet on the open range, or what it means to love and fight for a place you call home, this episode will resonate.Follow Mary Margaret's work at the links below:https://www.instagram.com/mary_hardee/https://herding-her-story.blubrry.net/https://www.archbold-station.org/buck-island-ranch/Thank you to Tahlia Warrick and Zach Franco for setting this series up.

He graduated from Penn State University and moved to Florida to start his career as an engineer. Not long after, he joined several friends as a partner at a small firm. They grew that firm from 12 people to 4,000, starting several divisions that are thriving today. While Bill retired from full-time work at exp in 2024, his time in engineering ignited his love for sustainability, which he applied at home and to his passion project, Wekiva Island. Bill and his family purchased the former Wekiwa Marina in 2008 and have grown it into a beacon for sustainability in business. Today, Bill's focus is structured around his trademarked sustainability toolbox, C.E.R.O., which stands for Conservation, Efficiency, Renewables and Offsets. Bill believes that, through this toolbox, we can make a difference by saving wasted energy and providing positive impacts on the environment through all types of energy conservation measures and sustainable approaches. When he isn't working to improve Wekiva Island, Bill is a passionate backpacker and SCUBA diver.

It has become her life, and she has fully immersed herself in the Island and the protection of the environment. In 2009, Mary partnered with Keep Seminole Beautiful, and when the Executive Director passed away, she took over. She has overseen as many as 30 river clean ups a year since, pulling an estimated six tons of trash out of the river and off of the roads in the last 16 years. Mary has also served on the Audubon Advisory Board for the Audubon Center for Birds of Prey in Maitland since about 2015 and served a four-year term on Seminole County's Tourism Development Council from 2018 to 2021. Mary has five children and five grandchildren, all of whom she cherishes.

Send us a textIn this special series of Classroom Caffeine in collaboration with the Stories-To-Live-By Collective, we highlight this group of K–12 teachers from across the state of Florida and former teachers now in higher education who are working together to sensemake and take action. We talk with educators and researchers who are working together to explore how literacy teaching can respond to the climate crisis. Since 2021, they have gathered in person and online to write, make art, share stories, and reflect on how climate change is shaping our classrooms and communities. Supported by grants and partnerships, they hold regular workshops a nd virtual meetings, creating space for teachers to learn from one another while navigating challenges like book bans, censorship laws, and the realities of living through major hurricanes.Through this work, the group is studying how teachers use stories, place-based activities, and multimodal composing to bring climate change into English Language Arts classrooms. Their collaborative research asks: How do teachers tell stories about climate change? How do they navigate the political, social, and environmental pressures of their schools? And how can they build new literacies that prepare young people for more just and livable futures?In each episode of this special series, we talk with a collaborator in the Stories-To-Live-By Collective about their experiences, connections, and learning through this work together.Dr. Alexandra Panos grew up in St. Louis, Missouri and taught middle school in Chicago before doing her PhD in rural Indiana.

It was her experience of learning to be an engaged Floridian, socially, politically, and environmentally, that led her to convene work related to the intersections of her passions: literacy, teacher power, and education for the climate crisis. She lives in St. Petersburg with her partner, two rescue dogs, and Drusilla, the cat, who demanded to live with them in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton.Alex is an Associate Professor of Literacy Studies and Affiliate Faculty in Measurement and Research at the University of South Florida.

It looks like Chicago will be the site of President Trump's immigration crackdown. Several reports say ICE is planning expanded operations as soon as next week, much like the ones recently carried out in Los Angeles. The White House is prepping contingency plans to send in the National Guard if any ICE protests get out of hand. Illinois Governor JD Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson both have both said the stepped up enforcement is not welcome in the city. We'll talk about it with journalists Michael Shure and Jim Avila as we wrap up This Week in Politics. A little peek at our wild Floridian brothers and sisters is in order during Friday Fabulous Florida. Culture Blaster Michael Snyder slides into the show to talk movies and streaming options for the long weekend ahead.

 ​“What's funny is, people are talking about these movies being woke, but it's literally just what superheroes are supposed to be about — kindness, empathy, and protecting people that can't be protected. ” “These are times where we are told that you can't afford to look out for more than yourself — And to stand amidst that — to care about somebody even if it doesn't have some immediate benefit to me? Yeah, that's punk rock.” In a world spinning faster than a speeding bullet — where doomscrolls rain like cosmic rays, truth is stretched, accountability is turning invisible, everything is on fire, and our foundation is becoming rocky — maybe what we need isn't just another (super)hero — but a reminder of what everyday, real heroism looks like. This week we're talking about SUPERMAN + THE FANTASTIC FOUR - not one, but two summer movies appropriate for the time we're living in. At first glance, it might feel like another studio cash grab — but these movies arrived right on time, reminding us of the power of hope, kindness, and the audacity to care in a world that tells us not to. “It's clobberin' time!” is more than just a tagline; it's a call to stand together and fight the good fight, together.  So we gathered a couple of our favorite superhero sons of Cincinnati — Stefan K. James and Karl Preissner — longtime friends, early podcast guests (#11 + #12). Karl Preissner a longtime friend, allyship expert, and person who dances like no one is watching. And Stefan James is arguably my favorite Jamaican- Chinese- midwestern- Floridian father and business dude to nerd out on all things fiction and non-fiction. Both are gents who i don't spend enough time talking to. They both joined to talk through their thoughts, feelings, and anxieties of the moment we're in, and reflect on how these films can show us a better way forward.

This week, Daniel welcomes special guest co-host Darwin (Rodan's husband) for a fresh take on the show's signature blend of candid conversation and quirky humor. Daniel opens by officially “retiring” the running segment, poking fun at its repetitiveness—though listeners still get a peek into the realities (and tedium) of marathon training. The two share tips for making long runs less boring, swapping podcast and audiobook recommendations and commiserating over the struggle to stay entertained on the trail.Their conversation quickly veers into geek territory: tech podcast habits, the pain of inconsistent keyboard layouts for programmers, and the search for the perfect “candy-colored” office setup. There's plenty of Floridian flavor as Daniel reminisces about growing up near Disney and his old lake house, while Darwin reveals he never even knew Disney parks existed until adulthood. The duo share warm family stories, local nostalgia, and the weird rules for adopting as a same-sex couple in Florida.Banter is in full force throughout, with recurring jokes about Darwin's “butch voice,” their preferences for home temperature, and the ongoing hunt for the ideal cannabis gummy (spoiler: lavender is NOT a fruit). As always, the episode is loaded with inside jokes, Pride 48 shout-outs, Disney trivia, and genuine friendship. It's The Gay Mix at its best: heartfelt, hilarious, and deeply relatable for anyone who loves a good queer chat.Email: Contact@MixMinusPodcast.comVoice: 707-613-3284

Every week we get closer and closer to buying the Nerd Talk+ blimp - obviously Gravy isn't allowed on it. Like a dirigible without a rudder, we once again try to keep the show going without Branden. One of us went full Florida driver and it's not the Floridian, we imagine the fragrance of the most expensive cheese, and ask the question: is the beard the male BBL? Well then. Thank you for all your fun banter via all our channels that you can find at nerdtalkplus.com

In this episode, Brett Cyphers sits down with Temperince Morgan, a fourth-generation Floridian who brings both personal roots and professional expertise to Florida's most pressing environmental issues. Temperince shares her story, beginning with her upbringing alongside a father with deep roots in ranching. Raised in Jacksonville and spending time with family in Lake Okeechobee, her love for nature was shaped by family trips around Florida. Her childhood was deeply connected to water and land—where cattle ranches, the St. Johns River, and Florida's state parks sparked a lasting bond with the landscape and laid the foundation for a career dedicated to its restoration and protection. She walks Brett through her time as a biology major at Florida State University and how that led to a career in environmental science. The conversation explores her roles at the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and the South Florida Water Management District, where she helped lead early efforts in Everglades restoration. Now, as Executive Director of The Nature Conservancy's Southern U.S. Division, she oversees large-scale environmental strategy across 10 states. They also dive into projects close to her, like the Pensacola East Bay Oyster Project. Rich in personal insight and professional depth, this episode offers an intimate look at one of Florida's most respected environmental leaders—and what it takes to protect the state's natural future. To explore the broader mission behind the work Temperince leads—conserving lands and waters across the U.S. and beyond visit The Nature Conservancy To hear more about the Florida-based initiatives Temperince references, including coastal resilience, water management, and Everglades restoration visit The Nature Conservancy in Florida To take a closer look at the project that Temperince highlights as an example of measurable, on-the-ground restoration visit Pensacola East Bay Oyster Project Temperince discusses values that are essential to future conservation success; this center reflects TNC's focus on science, outreach, and education.

Today's guest is Alejandra Grindal. Alejandra serves as the Chief Economist for Ned Davis Research. Based in Florida and a graduate (undergraduate and Master's) of Florida State University, we were pleased to host a true Floridian for this episode. We recently hosted Alejandra for our Annual Dinner for CFA Society Orlando and did such a great job, we wanted to have her on the podcast. She joined Ned Davis in 2006 and has been quoted in national media, including Barron's, WSJ, CNBC, and TIME, and is a guest on CNBC, and Bloomberg TV. Prior to Ned Davis, she served as a full-time Professor and also worked in British Parliament as a research assistant. Founded in 1980, Ned Davis Research is an independent investment research firm, offering a variety of research products and services to institutional clients globally. They emphasize a data-driven approach, using models, charts, indicators and a “weight-of-the-evidence” methodology to help clients make informed decisions (Gemini created summary). In this episode, we discuss Alejandra's career as she has been on the economics track at an early age and is practically a lifer at Ned Davis Research, which is rare these days. We discuss all things tariff related, along with her take on current economic data, the risk of stagflation and how investors should best position their portfolios. Today's hosts are Steve Curley, CFA (Co-Managing Principal, 55 North Private Wealth) & co-host Christina Shaffer, CFA (Director of Fixed Income, AllGen Financial) Please enjoy the episode.

You’ll feel that collaborative spirit along with some serious warmth on “Blest.”

This week on Toilet Radio: We're launching a new series in which we discuss one subgenre in heavy metal at a time. This series is about taking a single genre and discussing all the things we like about it. It's a wildly different approach for us. We're talking about the history and highlights of DEATH METAL in this very first edition. Where did it come from? Where did it go? Where did it come from, Death Metal, Joe? We're talking about thrash origins to a Floridian bloom, UK proliferation, and Swedish perfection in this compact lil primer on the genre you all know and love. We pick out a handful of songs that we think best illustrate the dimensions of death metal and discuss what these bands all did to inspire a legion of other bands and sub-sub genres in their wake. Folks, it's a good one. Just a heads up, this episode is TOO HOT for standard platforms. You can listen to a stripped-down version here or on Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts BUT if you want to listen to the full, uncut version you'll need to check out the Toilet ov Hell Patreon page.

Seth Carswell has a passion for custom design, craftsmanship, and legacy. As Florida's only custom boot maker, Seth's artistry, traditional technique, and commitment to detail are evident in every stitch of his boots. As a 3rd generation Floridian, his family background lies in timber production and he spent much of his younger years involved in that business or on the water, before turning to his passion for blending form, function, and legacy in leather goods.  Nothing demonstrates this concept more than his alligator boots.  Managing alligator populations through hunting programs on both public and private lands is an integral part of conservation here in the Sunshine State and Seth indirectly plays a small role in all this by crafting the tanned gator skins into beautiful boots that reflect his love of Florida. Join us in this conversation as we learn more about Seth's family the origins and future plans for Florida Boot Company.

Republicans and their cheering fans in Con Inc. media are a bunch of listless vessels with no ideological direction on most issues. The one shining exception is the gun rights movement. We're joined today by Luis Valdes, national spokesman for Gun Owners of America, for a presentation on where things stand with gun rights both federally and in the states. Valdes celebrates numerous policy and legal successes of GOA, but also warns that there is more to be done. The gaping hole in gun rights is the gun-free zones. As a Floridian, he discusses the lessons of the FSU campus shooter and how RINOs in Florida support gun control without campaigning on it. Also, as a former police officer, Valdes is passionate about the need to treat civilians and police equally. He confronts some of the arguments from police organizations in support of various gun control laws. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
