Betsy Wurzel's guest today is Dr. Marc Sapir, author of I'll Fly Away: Stories of Disabled Elders. In this inspiring interview, Dr. Sapir shares why he gave his book the title I'll Fly Away, drawn from the 1929 song about freedom. He explains how the theme of freedom connects deeply with the lives of elderly and disabled individuals—social beings who deserve respect, autonomy, and dignity.During their conversation, Betsy and Dr. Sapir explored the PACE model program for elderly and disabled individuals, which recognizes them as cultural beings who should be supported in living meaningful lives. They discussed how music plays a vital role in bringing joy, connection, and healing, and why being socially active is essential for well-being.Another important topic they covered was end-of-life care. Dr. Sapir stressed how crucial it is to make your wishes known through a medical directive, ensuring that family or friends honor those decisions—even if they might disagree. He emphasized that, for many people, quality of life matters more than quantity.Dr. Sapir also shared stories of individuals featured in I'll Fly Away: Stories of Disabled Elders, reflecting on the lessons he has learned from his experiences. He spoke about how aging often brings physical and mental challenges, but reminded us that we must always treat the elderly with respect and dignity.The interview also touched on how healthcare systems can better support the aging population by recognizing their unique needs and providing programs that nurture independence and self-worth. About Dr. Marc SapirDr. Marc Sapir is a retired primary care, geriatric, and public health physician. He is also an essayist, playwright, fiction writer, poet, musician, and political activist.

Was the great hope of the first Christians to fly away one day, or was it something far more rooted in the biblical story of creation? The Eikon team discusses this important question as they examine the pivotal passages of 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 and demonstrate how Paul might have been saying something very different from what many modern readers have presumed. 00:00 - Introduction and Banter10:32 - The Importance of Resurrection in the Gospel27:02 - Understanding the Stages of Resurrection51:07 - The Impact of Resurrection on Our Lives

Jeremy Garrett has been playing music since he first picked up the fiddle at the age of three, encouraged by his father, a guitarist steeped in Bill Monroe's Bluegrass Boys and its guitar/banjo duo of Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs. The two formed a band together, the Grasshoppers, and that helped launch Jeremy's 45-year – and counting — career as a musician.Born in California, Garrett grew up in Idaho, before moving to Nashville in 1998, co-founding the Infamous Stringdusters when a musician friend, dobro player Andy Hall, approached his bandmate in a group named the Ronnie Bowman Committee (along with ex-mandolin player Jesse Cobb) to join forces with his Berklee College of Music classmates, banjo player Chris Pandolfi and former guitarist Chris Eldridge, in the group's first iteration in 2005. The band's current lineup includes double-bassist Travis Book, who came aboard in 2005, and guitarist Andy Falco, who replaced Eldridge in 2007. Since that time, the Stringdusters have garnered a Grammy Award in 2018 for Best Bluegrass Album (Laws of Gravity) and two nominations, the most recent in 2022 in the same category (A Tribute to Bill Monroe).Since that time, Garrett has released seven solo albums, with his latest, Storm Mountain, his first since 2022's well-received River Wild. Now living “off the grid” in a cabin on 12 acres with his wife and eight-year-old daughter in a remote section of Theodore Roosevelt National Forest outside of Drake, Colorado, Garrett recorded the album in a one-room studio outside of Fort Collins, CO, at the foothills of the mountains, before he added his parts at his own Storm Mountain home studio.Storm Mountain deals with such serious topics as a fall from grace (“Son of Perdition”), the bitterness of fate (“The Cold Hard Truth”), lost love (“Fly Away”), the meaning of life (“Anchor in the Deep”) and hopes for his daughter (“You're Gonna Fly”). In addition, there are playful stabs at modern phenomena from social conventions (“Don't Ask') to UFOs (“Rosewell”).“I'm interested in World Music and how the fiddle has been played around the globe,” said Garrett, whose previous albums have explored a wide range of fiddle effects, including loops and pedals, showing the instrument can be as eclectic as the guitar. “It's been integrated in all forms of music as one of the most versatile instruments on the planet. There's something about fiddle players that's unique.”“I wanted to draw on something a little different than what I do with the ‘Dusters, by touching on my more traditional lineage in gospel, country and blues. These are songs that don't quite fit in with the crowds we usually play for. When I go back to the band, I'm way better and more fulfilled for having done these solo records.”At 48 years old, Garrett is relatively young for a bluegrass veteran and looks forward to performing his music live for audiences. “When I write songs now, it's from the standpoint of someone who's been through some life experiences over the past 20 years. My goal is for this record to be uplifting at the same time as it's more reflective in terms of healing."With the Dusters about to celebrate their 20th anniversary next year with a new album, Garrett looks forward to finding time for the occasional solo performance along with his “day job.”His ultimate inspiration are guys like Larry Sparks (“Slow Train” on the new album is a tribute to him), Del McCoury and the late Ralph Stanley, who have performed into their 70s, 80s and 90s.“I want to play this music forever,” said Jeremy. With Storm Mountain, he continues on that path.

We all hope to grow old with dignity and some joyfulness. The intimate narratives of 40 extraordinary elders shared in I'll Fly Away: Stories About Amazing Disabled Elders explore both the challenges of aging and the joys and vibrancy that often persist in the twilight years.

Text us about this show.Jason Reisdorf is a brilliant musician. One listen to his two bands, Natural Satellite and Son Reis Project, bears this out. Natural Satellite is a duo with his wife, Karli, who is a cellist and vocalist. They write and perform laid back, jazzy originals that are creative and introspective. Then there's Son Reis Project (SRP), a trio with Jason Goessl on guitar/bass and Ryan Thomas on drums. SRP has both jazz and heavy metal as its foundations and from there it's an experiment in sound that is indescribable. But with Jason as the constant between the two, one thing that's for certain is that both will be interesting.

Let's take a moment to explore what earworms are, what they have in common, what causes them, and how they can affect our health. An earworm is a catchy tune that invades your brain and refuses to leave. The term actually comes from the German word ohrwurm.

FLY AWAY, FROGGY BOY, 8min., Canada Directed by Mia Lobo Fly Detective Francis McFly loses his partner to the infamous ‘Croaks', a frog gang at the centre of his most recent investigation. Stricken by grief, he decides to get revenge, and go head to head with their ravenous leader, The Frogfather. https://mialobo.com/home Get to know the filmmaker: What motivated you to make this film? Fly Away, Froggy Boy was my final year thesis film. Everyone in their final year at my animation program was required to pitch a film idea, present it to our final year classmates, and the film ideas were chosen based on popular vote. The idea came from a joke between me and my partner (the co-creator, foley artist and voice of McFly), quite literally “Imagine if you pitched a film about a fly getting revenge on frogs”. I decided to pitch it to my class to see if anyone would be drawn to the idea as much as we were. We ended up one of the four films chosen to be made that year! People really love the idea. What were your initial reactions when watching the audience talking about your film in the feedback video? It was a great feedback video!I found it really interesting to see what aspects of the film jump out at people. The whole project is a lot less surprising and fresh for me because I worked on it for so long. Being able to hear people talk about the specific elements of the film that they found really unique, fresh and fun, reminds me of how great the project is, and how I felt the exact same way during the process.

To Watch The Full Uncensored Version Visit The True North Movement https://www.patrickcoffin.media/the-true-north-movement/ Karen Hall is a prolific TV writer, producer, and convert to the Faith. She has received seven Emmy Award nominations and six Writers Guild of America award nominations. Chances are excellent you've loved watched shows she has written. (Start the list with Hill Street Blues, M.A.S.H., Moonlighting, Northern Exposure, I'll Fly Away, Judging Amy and The Good Wife). Her new book, her first non-fiction work, tackles the silencing of Father Paul Mankowski, SJ by the Jesuit superiors who could not abide a practicing Catholic in their midst. Mankowski, who died suddenly of an aneurysm on September 3, 2020, was a scholar, philologist, confessor, and professor of Scripture. He was also a writer of immense talent: charm, force, and wit. He was modern in the sense of addressing contemporary crises with Catholic truth, but also a true son of the Company of Jesus more in the mold of its founder, St. Ignatius of Loyola than the typical lavender-liberal Jesuits that dominate the landscape today. He was also silenced and sidelined by his superiors for Wrong Think. And yet, he obeyed and persevered to a degree that must be called heroic. Hall's very enjoyable book is not just a spiritual biography, but a window onto the chain-of-command dynamics of the post Vatican II Catholic Church, which have become even more severe under the current Argentine regime in Rome. In this episode, you will learn: How Hall applied top-flight storytelling skills to tell the tale, with admirable detail, of an unheralded hero in the Church. The reasons why Mankowski stayed and fought in his own way against Church corruption by remaining faithful to his vow of obedience come what may How the faithful Jesuit's witness led to an upgraded edition of her novel Dark Debts The inciting incident—criticizing pro-abortion Jesuit Congressman Robert Drinan, SJ— that began his targeting by corrupt homosexuality superiors Mankowski's fervent, often humorous critique of the sacred cows of the Catholic left: feminism, liturgical innovation, and “social justicism” Why we need more witnesses to the gospel without compromise Resources mentioned in this episode: The Sound of Silence: The Life and Cancelling of a Heroic Jesuit Priest by Karen Hall
