Thursday, 28 August 2025   The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here. Matthew 12:41   “Men, Nineveh, they will arise in the judgment with this generation and they will sentence it, for they reconsidered at the proclamation of Jonah. And you behold! Jonah's greater is here!” (CG).   In the previous verse, Jesus noted that just as Jonah was in the belly of the great lunker three days and three nights, He would be in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights. Next, He continues His address to the scribes and Pharisees, saying, “Men, Nineveh, they will arise in the judgment with this generation.”   The location Nineveh is introduced here. The name Nineveh may be a word of foreign origin, but if connected to Hebrew, its meaning is Offspring's Habitation. As the Bible is written from a Hebrew perspective, the Hebrew name is what is to be considered.   Nineveh is a city that was built at the earliest times of man after the flood. It was noted as being built by Nimrod in the Table of Nations in Genesis 10:11. It is noted in 2 Kings, Isaiah, Jonah, Nahum, and Zephaniah, but the main biblical accounts of Nineveh are recorded in Jonah and Nahum.   Jesus is referring to the account in Jonah, saying that the inhabitants of Nineveh will arise to judge the generation of Israel in which He came. And more, He next says, “and they will sentence it.”   The verb katakrinó, to judge against, is introduced. In judging against, it means an unfavorable verdict is rendered, leading to condemnation. Condemning or condemnation in the Bible is often associated with eternal punishment. This is not always the case when the word is used.   To condemn means expressing disapproval, censuring, sentencing, etc. The context will derive the meaning. In this case, Nineveh will be a part of the judgment and sentencing of Israel's people at Jesus' time. The reason is, “for they reconsidered at the proclamation of Jonah.”   Another new noun is stated, kérugma. It signifies a proclamation. Preaching is a type of proclamation. Jonah was sent to NinevehJonah to speak a word of the Lord against Nineveh. This was his kérugma, his proclamation –   “Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, 2 ‘Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against it; for their wickedness has come up before Me.'” Jonah 1:1, 2   “And Jonah began to enter the city on the first day's walk. Then he cried out and said, ‘Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!'” Jonah 3:4   As noted in the Matthew 12:39 commentary, Jonah's time in the belly of the lunker is not the sign of Jonah. The sign of Jonah is something Nineveh was aware of. They had no idea that Jonah was in the lunker's belly. The sign of Jonah is the kérugma, the proclamation, of Jonah.   But more, it is specifically what the proclamation stated, “Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.” As noted in the Matthew 12:38 commentary, a sign is something that stands for something else. It may be a miracle or a wonder, but a sign points to another thing, such as “this indicates this.”   Jesus clearly states in Luke 11:30-32 that the preaching of Jonah is the sign, just as Jesus' preaching to the people of Israel is the sign. Jonah preached and promised destruction in forty days. Jesus preached and promised destruction as well.   The sign of Jonah is the preaching, which, if rejected, would lead to destruction after forty days. Jesus' time in Sheol, followed by the resurrection, simply bears witness to the truth of Jesus' preaching, which was to an already unbelieving people.   His words of the kingdom and reconsideration to “this generation” are the ultimate sign to them. Other prophets spoke in the name of the Lord, but Jesus spoke in His own name and under His own authority as the Son, and so He next says, “And you behold! Jonah's greater is here!”   The warning to reconsider or be overthrown turned out to be a day for a year, just as it was in the Old Testament. When Israel disobeyed in the wilderness, they were given a day for a year punishment for every day that the spies were gone. It was forty days, and thus forty years of punishment.   In Ezekiel chapter 4, he was told to lie on his right side for forty days, signifying a day for a year of punishment for Judah. He was told to do the same for his left side, but for three hundred and ninety days. It was a day for a year for the house of Israel. Together, they formed the basis of the prophecy concerning the return of Israel in 1948.   Forty years after Jesus' words, a day for a year, Israel's temple was destroyed, and the people were carried away in exile. The Romans came in and did what Nineveh was spared of. God's judgment fell heavily upon them for failing to reconsider, receive their long-awaited Messiah, and conform to the will of God, which is found in the finished work of Jesus Christ.   Life application: The sign of Jonah is the preaching of Jonah. The word of God, spoken to Israel in fulfillment of Scripture, and under the full authority of the Messiah who had been promised since the very beginning of man's time on the planet, was the sign. The resurrection simply proved it.   It is the word that conveys this to us. Thus, the word is its own sign to the people of the world. In essence, “I have used My people, Israel, to be a sign to the world as a proof that My word is true and that it is to be understood and accepted as such.”   The sign of Israel is a sign that is not yet fully fulfilled. To assume that the church has replaced Israel reflects a fundamental flaw in Christian understanding. It fails to match the reality of what is coming upon the world in the tribulation and millennium.   Be sure to have your theology concerning Israel properly aligned with what God is doing in the world. Otherwise, events that lie ahead will leave you surprised and confounded.   “Therefore, indeed, I send you prophets, wise men, and scribes: some of them you will kill and crucify, and some of them you will scourge in your synagogues and persecute from city to city, 35 that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah, son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar.36 Assuredly, I say to you, all these things will come upon this generation.” Matthew 23:34-36   Lord God, thank You for being with us as we engage with Your word. On our own, it is often hard to see what is being conveyed. Add on top of that, innumerable incorrect analyses of what is being said have been loaded upon us. Help us cut to the heart of what You are telling us by reminding us to stay in and study Your word all our days. Amen.

Bishop Andrew Cozzens, chairman of the Committee on Evangelization and Catechesis, shares incredible stories of a pilot pilgrimage for the upcoming Eucharistic Congress. Following the bishops' overwhelming approval of the new national pastoral plan, Bishop Oscar Cantú talks with Catholic Current about strengthening Hispanic/Latino Ministry in parishes and dioceses. The bishops have voted to begin a process of consultation and eventual revision of the Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Ministry. Forty-five years after the landmark pastoral letter on disabilities, the USCCB voted to begin drafting a new statement. Bishop Michael Burbidge, episcopal moderator of the National Catholic Partnership on Disability, shares his enthusiasm for the upcoming document. In his opening address to the bishops, the apostolic nuncio Archbishop Christophe Pierre exhorts the baptized to be “ambassadors for Christ.”

Anxiety and women have gone hand in hand for many years. And the prevalence has never been higher. Women and anxiety are often used in the same sentence. But most don't recognize the root of anxiety, nor the influence it has on day-to-day life, especially as mothers and women in leadership roles. What is anxiety? Anxiety is an abnormal sense of apprehension and fear that is often marked by physical signs and symptoms. When someone is anxious, they doubt that they will be able to cope with a situation or person. Doubt often leads to overreacting and emotional chaos. Overreacting disrupts stability within the family and influences the emotional state of others. Frequently, anxiety creates a vicious cycle.  Prevalence of anxiety Forty-two point five million Americans claim to suffer from anxiety. The prevalence is higher in women than in men. The statistics are staggering. Breakdown of the relationships between women and anxiety I see three types of women in my coaching practice.

This week, the story continues. The journey called “Signing Off” moves forward — not as an ending, but as a deeper step into faith, into reflection, and into surrender. Last week, we witnessed something powerful… Baptism Sunday. Twenty-one lives declared new beginnings. Forty-plus this year who have chosen to rise, to leave the old behind, and step boldly into the waters of grace. Each one a testimony, each one a reminder that God is moving here, among us, in this house. Even through the heat, through the sweat, through every challenge — we pressed on. Because what God is doing is greater than any obstacle. So today, as we open our hearts to Week 3 of Signing Off, we are not just hearing another message. We are being invited into transformation. Into courage. Into choosing what must be signed off — so that something new, something eternal, can begin. Welcome… to the Motion Church Podcast.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for August 23rd Publish Date: August 23rd PRE-ROLL: MONSTER JAM From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, August 23rd and Happy Birthday to Barbra Eden I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Lawmakers discuss ways to discourage tobacco sales and use North Gwinnett Co-op suffers thousands in losses after break-in Candidate fields set for most Gwinnett cities municipal elections All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Lawmakers discuss ways to discourage tobacco sales and use Smoking kills. We all know it, yet people keep lighting up—and now vaping’s taken over, especially with kids. A small group of Georgia lawmakers is trying to change that, but their main idea? A tax hike. And let’s be real, taxes don’t win popularity contests—especially in an election year. At Thursday’s hearing, Rep. Sharon Cooper, R-Marietta, acknowledged the uphill battle. The proposal wouldn’t even hit the floor until 2026. Other ideas? Banning flavored vapes, requiring ingredient labels, and raising the laughably low $10 licensing fee for vape shops. Georgia’s cigarette tax? A measly 37 cents per pack, one of the lowest in the country. Stephens argued it’s time to raise it, not just to discourage smoking but to cover the healthcare costs that inevitably follow. Meanwhile, federal budget cuts have already gutted Georgia’s Tobacco Use Prevention Program. Advocates are calling for the state to restore $2.1 million in funding, but for now, the fight continues. STORY 2: North Gwinnett Co-op suffers thousands in losses after break-in  For nearly 35 years, the North Gwinnett Co-Op in Buford has been a lifeline for families—offering food, clothes, and help with essentials like meds and utility bills. But now? They’re the ones who need a hand. Early Tuesday morning, someone shattered a window at their Second Blessings Thrift Store, making off with over $10,000 in goods. The store closed for repairs but reopened Thursday, thanks to an outpouring of community support. Donations are welcome. STORY 3: Candidate fields set for most Gwinnett cities municipal elections Gwinnett County’s cities now have their lineups for this fall’s elections—well, most of them. Fourteen cities wrapped up candidate qualifying on Wednesday, with one exception: Auburn. Their qualifying runs through Friday, so no word yet on their candidates. And Mulberry? No elections there until 2027, per the city’s founding legislation. Elsewhere, though, changes are coming. Snellville’s losing Councilwomen Cristy Lenski and Gretchen Schulz, while Sugar Hill’s Taylor Anderson is stepping down. Loganville? A new mayor and two new council members are guaranteed, with Mayor Skip Baliles and others not seeking re-election. Meanwhile, Norcross Mayor Craig Newton, recently cleared in a city probe, is running unopposed. Grayson’s Mayor Allison Wilkerson? Also unchallenged. But Sugar Hill Mayor Brandon Hembree and Braselton Mayor Kurt Ward? They’ve got competition. Peachtree Corners, though, is staying steady—no challengers, no election. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets 10 STORY 4: Community Foundation for Northeast Georgia raises record $450K at 40th anniversary celebration The Community Foundation for Northeast Georgia threw quite the party for its 40th anniversary—and raised a jaw-dropping $450,000 in just two hours at its Good2Give Celebration on Aug. 14. More than 500 guests packed the Gas South District for an evening of jazz, philanthropy, and heartfelt stories. Radio personality Mara Davis and Aurora Theatre’s Jono Davis kept the energy high, while Jose Garcia’s jazz set the perfect mood. The funds will help CFNEG continue its mission of empowering over 300 local nonprofits through training, consultation, and financial support. The night also honored community leaders like Ethel Andersen, Mike Tennant, and Sir Timothy Minard for their lasting contributions. Forty years strong—and just getting started. STORY 5: Two more Georgia paper mills closing International Paper is shutting down two pulp and paper mills in Coastal Georgia, leaving about 1,100 workers without jobs. The mills in Savannah and Riceboro, along with a Savannah packaging facility, will close by the end of next month, cutting the company’s containerboard production by a million tons annually. The closures hit hard. Georgia House Speaker Jon Burns called it a “devastating blow” to Southeast Georgia’s economy and timber industry. Georgia’s pulp and paper sector has been shrinking for decades—down from 18 mills in 1977 to just nine now. Marshall Thomas, president of F&W Forest Services, told leaders at the Ag Issues Summit that lawmakers are exploring ways to boost timber demand, including sustainable aviation fuel from biomass. Burns vowed to work with state and federal leaders to find new opportunities for those affected and protect Georgia’s timber industry. Break 3: MONSTER JAM STORY 6: Suwanee Wine Fest tickets go on sale Friday Suwanee’s Wine Fest is back! Mark your calendars for Nov. 8 at Town Center Park, and if you’re planning to go, don’t wait—tickets dropped yesterday. Last year, VIP tickets sold out in minutes. This year’s festival promises over 150 wines to sip, swirl, and savor—perfect for everyone from casual drinkers to wannabe sommeliers. VIPs get early access at noon, while general admission runs from 1 to 4:30 p.m. Not into wine? No worries. Head to the Taco Mac Tailgate Tent for craft brews from StillFire and Social Fox, or check out the new Margaritaville Cocktail Corner for some tropical vibes. And yes, the grape stomping is back—because what’s a wine fest without stomping grapes, right? Plus, there’ll be local vendors, food, and plenty of shopping to round out the day. Best of all, a portion of proceeds supports Annandale Village, a Suwanee nonprofit helping adults with developmental disabilities live full, independent lives. STORY 7: Gwinnett's GSMST named 13th best high school in the nation Gwinnett County residents are no strangers to hearing about the Gwinnett School of Math, Science, and Technology (GSMST) topping Georgia’s rankings. But nationally? It’s a whole other level. U.S. News & World Report just named GSMST the 13th best public high school in the entire country—the only Georgia school in the top 25. With a 100% graduation rate, 98% AP participation, and near-perfect proficiency in math, reading, and science, it’s no wonder. Other Gwinnett schools? They’re solid but not quite in the same league. North Gwinnett High came in at No. 527 nationally, Paul Duke STEM at No. 659, and Brookwood at No. 1,360. Meanwhile, some schools didn’t even crack the top 100 in Georgia, with a few so far down they weren’t given specific rankings. Still, GSMST’s achievement is a big win for Gwinnett—and a reminder of the high bar it sets. We’ll have closing comments after this Break 4: MONSTER JAM Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

Late last year, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey of almost fourteen hundred teens, ages thirteen to seventeen, to come to an understanding of our teenagers' experiences and attitudes around social media and their mental health. One of the most interesting findings is one that really isn't that surprising, especially if you've been tracking with the data on how digital devices are interrupting our kids sleep patterns. Forty five percent of the kids surveyed said that social media sites hurt the amount of sleep they get. Only four percent of kids say social media sites help their sleep, while thirty two percent are neutral. As you've heard us say here many times before, God made us for a rhythm of work and rest, and our kids need over nine hours of uninterrupted sleep each night for healthy growth and development. Parents, one of the first and most helpful parenting steps you can take is to get the phones out of their rooms. Doing this will contribute to their health and flourishing.

Israel has approved a West Bank settlement plan that would split the territory and pave the way for thousands of apartments, drawing global criticism and threatening hopes of a Palestinian state. Gov. Newsom last year accused oil companies of “screwing” customers, but now he wants to increase oil drilling in Kern County to prevent a possible rise in gas prices in 2026. Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead were counterculture icons. But according to author Jim Newton, Garcia himself wasn’t particularly political. At least not publicly, or even in ways we might traditionally think. Forty-two cats in a traditional portrait setting. Felines filling the frame in an array of poses on blue and pink fabrics, bathed in soft light. The 1891 masterpiece "My Wife's Lovers" is just as fabulous as it sounds.

Episode SummaryWhat happens when one of Toronto's most recognizable voices on Canadian culture sits down to talk about his favorite band of all time? This week, jD is joined by Mike from Toronto (you know him better as Toronto Mike) for a heartfelt countdown conversation. From first spins on Q107 to life-changing live shows, Mike opens up about what The Tragically Hip have meant to him — and why one song in particular brings him to tears every time.Along the way, we revisit Road Apples, the magic of New Year's Eve 1999 at the ACC, and the emotional weight of Gord Downie's final performances. And in a moving moment, Mike shares how he processed the day Gord passed, sitting alone in his basement studio and pressing record. You can still hear that raw, unfiltered tribute, For Gord, right here: Toronto Mike on Gord's passing.About the GuestMike is the host of the long-running Toronto Mike'd podcast, where he's interviewed hundreds of cultural figures, musicians, and storytellers.

Since then, The Tragically Hip have been a constant through his life, from weddings to Y2K countdowns to the bittersweet goodbye of the Man Machine Poem tour.Why It MattersEvery fan has that first song that changed everything. For Mike, it was Blow at High Dough on the radio. For countless others, it was another track, another moment, another show.

Every week across the U.S. more than two newspapers go out of business. In the past two decades more than 3,000 papers have shut down operations. That's left more than 1,500 counties so-called news deserts. Forty-three of West Virginia's 55 counties have just one local news source and that limited access gives the state a ranking of 46th out of all 50 states. Studies show when local news sources vanish, the result is a drop in community participation on many levels. On the next episode of Us & Them, host Trey Kay visits some regional news deserts to talk about the way local news organizations help a community see and define itself. Some say local coverage is the glue that brings a place together and in Putnam County the Hurricane Breeze continues to offer essential local news while in Greenbrier County, a startup is working to bring back that voice.

Len Colodny : The Forty Years War: The Rise and Fall of the Neocons, from Nixon to ObamaBoth a work of courageous journalistic investigation and a revisionist history of U.S. foreign policy, The Forty Years War details the rise of an insurgent movement, inside and outside the White House, that contributed to Richard Nixon's resignation —including an eye-opening account of Bob Woodward's direct ties to the military and to high-level White House insiders who actively worked to force Nixon out. The result is a must-read for anyone interested in America's standing in the world—yesterday, today, and tomorrow.https://amzn.to/3HkUcjtBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

This week on The Tragically Hip Top 40 Countdown, we slide into #?? with the opening blast from Fully Completely — “Courage (for Hugh MacLennan)” — and a conversation that's as much about life, literature, and lyrics as it is about rock 'n' roll.My guest? The self-confessed “fully incompletist” himself, Mark from Michigan. Mark takes us through his winding Hip origin story — from near-misses in the '90s to the life-changing moment he dropped “At the Hundredth Meridian” into his car stereo and never looked back. We talk first concerts (State Theatre, 2007 — 10 feet from Gord), rowdy balcony encounters, and why Sarah Polley's delicate Sweet Hereafter cover still gives him chills.Then we get deep into “Courage”: McLennan's words, Gord's delivery, and how the song captures our messy, human attempts to face the worst moments with something like bravery.

EIKEVSecret of the Number FortyWe will explore the secret and power of the number forty, and we will do this by examining one of the great idea in the Torah: Moses's ascent to heaven three times, where each time he ascends for forty days and lives there as a hybrid creature - half human and half angel. The obvious question is: why did it take so long? Why did the G-d, perform such an enormous miracle that required Moses to breathe like a human being, but live like an angel without food or sleep for forty days?"This appears to be the beginning of a theological or mystical discussion about the significance of the number 40 in Jewish tradition, specifically focusing on Moses' three 40-day periods on Mount Sinai when he received the Torah. This sets up an inquiry into why this particular duration was necessary and what spiritual significance it might hold.

The journey from the wilderness to the Promised Land represents one of Scripture's most pivotal transitions—and in this illuminating exploration of Joshua 1:1-9, we discover how God orchestrates leadership transitions that advance His unchanging mission.When Moses dies, God doesn't pause to mourn or reassess. Instead, He immediately commands Joshua: "Moses my servant is dead. Now therefore, arise, go." This remarkable moment teaches us that while leaders may change, God's purposes never falter. Four times in this passage, God commands Joshua to "be strong and courageous"—a refrain that echoes through the ages to every believer facing uncertainty.The backstory makes this moment even more profound. Forty years earlier, twelve spies explored Canaan, but only Joshua and Caleb trusted God's promise despite seeing formidable obstacles. That failure of national faith resulted in an entire generation missing their inheritance. Now, Joshua leads a younger generation (everyone under 20 except himself and Caleb) into their destiny.What does follow-worthy leadership look like? Through Joshua's example, we discover four essential qualities: immediate obedience without hesitation, complete dependence on God while taking action, willingness to invite necessary sacrifice, and openness to meaningful encouragement. These same qualities appeared perfectly in Jesus, whose name in Greek is the equivalent of "Joshua" in Hebrew—a connection that reveals God's consistent character across Scripture.Most compelling is Joshua's challenge to the tribes that had already received their inheritance east of the Jordan. Though they had settled into comfort, he called them to leave everything behind temporarily to help their brothers secure their inheritance. This powerful picture reminds us that receiving God's blessings isn't our final goal—helping others experience His promises is our ongoing mission.As we navigate our own wilderness-to-promise transitions, remember that every Christian is called to lead somewhere. Your next step of courage might be someone else's pathway to freedom. Where is God calling you to be strong and courageous today?

Scot and Jeff discuss Jimmy Buffett with Conor Friedersdorf.Introducing the Band:Your hosts Scot Bertram (@ScotBertram) and Jeff Blehar (@EsotericCD) are with guest Conor Friedersdorf. Conor is a staff writer atThe Atlantic, where he writes about politics and culture, with a focus on civil liberties, and he's the founding editor ofThe Best of Journalism, a newsletter on Substack where he highlights the best nonfiction that he encounters each week. Find him on X at @conor64.Conor's Music Pick: Jimmy BuffettWhether you've had your fins up since the '70s or just wandered in from Margaritaville wondering what the fuss is all about, you're in the right place. In this episode of Political Beats, we're kicking back and diving deep into the life and music of Jimmy Buffett — the man who turned tropical escapism into a full-blown philosophy and business model.Buffett's career didn't start with frozen cocktails and parrots on shoulders. He came up in the 1970s as a Gulf Coast troubadour, blending country, folk, and coastal storytelling into something all his own. His early albums like A White Sport Coat and a Pink Crustacean and A1A earned him a devoted following, while songs like “Come Monday” and “A Pirate Looks at Forty” showed a tender, reflective side behind the laid-back image.But then came “Margaritaville” — and everything changed. The 1977 hit launched Buffett into the stratosphere, spawning not only a signature sound but a full-fledged lifestyle brand. Over the next few decades, he built an empire: hit albums, bestselling books, restaurant chains, retirement communities, and legions of Parrotheads who came for the music and stayed for the state of mind.In this episode, we take a sunny stroll through his albums — highlighting the iconic tunes, the underrated gems, and the occasional head-scratcher (a decent portion of the 1980s). Whether you're here for the deep cuts or just trying to figure out what the “Coconut Telegraph” actually is, we've got you covered. We try to unpack the stories, the sound, and the secret sauce that made Buffett not just a musician, but a lifestyle. And we attempt to answer the question: Did Buffett make a truly great album at any point or is the Greatest Hits collection all you really need?So pour yourself something cold, find a hammock — or a seat on the beach — and join us as we sail through the world of Jimmy Buffett: singer, storyteller, and the only guy to turn chill vibes into an empire. 

For the month of August, we’re highlighting episodes from the 2024-2025 season of Energy Policy Now. We’ll be back with new content, and a new season, on September the 9th. Former Republican U.S. congressman Bob Inglis offers a conservative perspective on climate solutions in discussion with Penn climatologist Michael Mann. --- (This episode was recorded on February 13, 2025, during Penn Energy Week) Politically conservative and concerned about climate change? In this special episode of the Energy Policy Now podcast, Penn climatologist Michael Mann talks with Bob Inglis, former Republican Congressman from South Carolina and current executive director of RepublicEN.org, about bridging the partisan climate divide. In a wide-ranging conversation recorded live during Energy Week at Penn 2025 at the University of Pennsylvania, Mann and Inglis discuss a conservative view on climate change, how conservative messaging on climate has evolved over time, and how common solutions might be found in an era of partisan climate divide. Inglis also offers his view on carbon pricing and strategies to reign in carbon emissions in the U.S. The conversation is moderated by Sanya Carley, faculty director of the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy. Bob Inglis is a former U.S. representative for South Carolina’s 4th congressional district. He is the executive director of RepublicanEn.org at George Mason University. Michael Mann is director of the Center for Science, Sustainability and the Media at the University of Pennsylvania. Sanya Carley is the Mark Alan Hughes faculty director of the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy. Important note on the conversation: Due to a technical problem, the first two minutes of Bob Inglis’ conversation are difficult to hear (from 5:40 to 7:40). We’ve transcribed those two minutes in the show notes, below, to make it easier to follow along. A full transcript of this and all Energy Policy Now podcasts is available on the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy website. Bob Inglis (5:40): Yeah, so for my first six years in Congress I said that climate change is nonsense. All I knew was that Al Gore was for it. And as much as I represented Greenville-Spartanburg South Carolina, that was the end of the inquiry. Okay, pretty ignorant. But that’s the way it was my first six years. Out of Congress six years, as you just heard, doing commercial real estate law again and then, had the opportunity to run for the same seat again before, our son had just turned 18, so he was voting for the first time, and he came to me and he said, dad, I’ll vote for you. But you’re going to clean up your act on the environment. His four sisters agreed, his mother agreed. New constituency, you know. So you got to respond to those people who can change the locks on the doors to your house, you know. So, very important to respond to these people. And so that was step one of a three step metamorphosis. Step two was going to Antarctica with the [House of Representatives] Science Committee and seeing the evidence in the iceberg drillings. Step three was another Science Committee trip and, um, really a spiritual awakening which seems improbable, right, on a godless Science Committee trip, because we all know that all scientists are godless. Right? Well, apparently not. Because this Aussie climate scientist was showing me the glories of the Great Barrier Reef. I could see he was worshipping God in what he was showing me. You know, St. Francis of Assisi supposedly said “preach the gospel at all times. If necessary use words.” So Scott Heron, this Aussie climate scientist who’s now become a very dear friend was doing that. I could see it in his eyes, it was written all over his face. It was in his excitement about what he was showing me. He was clearly worshipping God. So I knew we shared a world view. Forty words were spoken.

August 7, 1943. Off the coast of Venezuela, a Nazi U-boat is under siege. For nine days, it's hunted by Allied aircraft across the Caribbean, until its engines fail and its commander gives the order: abandon ship. Forty-three German sailors plunge into shark-infested waters, and are pulled out by their enemy - the United States. The Germans think the worst is behind them. Instead, they're headed for a POW camp in the American heartland, where life will actually be pretty comfortable. They play soccer, harvest corn, eat well… until things turn violent.  How did Nazi prisoners of war end up murdering each other on U.S. soil? And what does American justice look like when applied to the enemy? Special thanks to William Geroux, author of The Fifteen: Murder, Retribution, and the Forgotten Story of Nazi POWs in America.

Four days before Christmas in 1957, Clarence Horatious Pickett, a preacher and newspaper ad salesman in Columbus, Georgia, walked into town to pick up his paycheck. Forty-eight years old and known as “Reverend” to many, the tall, lean man with wire-rimmed glasses left his home and headed toward The Columbus World, a black newspaper where Pickett worked. Pickett, who’d been a boy preacher, was showing signs of mental instability and had spent time in the county jail and the state mental hospital, which was notorious for employing doctors with addictions, poor training and racist beliefs. Before the day was over, Pickett would be arrested, jailed, and beaten senseless by a white police officer. An examining physician would conclude that Pickett was “putting on.” He wasn’t. His injuries would lead to his death two days later. Pickett’s killing would spur police and FBI investigations where a remarkable number of eyewitnesses would come forward to testify on what they saw. But would an all-white criminal justice system bring charges against a white cop for beating a black man? Season 5 of Buried Truths follows the story of Pickett and the criminal justice and medical professionals who failed him. Why was he thrown in jail in the first place? Why wasn't he able to receive adequate medical care in those fragile days after his encounter with police? We'll explore Pickett’s life as a mentally disturbed Black man in the dark heart of the Deep South in the 1950s.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

And these are the countries which the children of Israel inherited in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel, distributed for inheritance to them.JOS.14:2 By lot was their inheritance, as the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses, for the nine tribes, and for the half tribe.JOS.14:3 For Moses had given the inheritance of two tribes and an half tribe on the other side Jordan: but unto the Levites he gave none inheritance among them.JOS.14:4 For the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim: therefore they gave no part unto the Levites in the land, save cities to dwell in, with their suburbs for their cattle and for their substance.JOS.14:5 As the LORD commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did, and they divided the land.JOS.14:6 Then the children of Judah came unto Joshua in Gilgal: and Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite said unto him, Thou knowest the thing that the LORD said unto Moses the man of God concerning me and thee in Kadeshbarnea.JOS.14:7 Forty years old was I when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadeshbarnea to espy out the land; and I brought him word again as it was in mine heart.JOS.14:8 Nevertheless my brethren that went up with me made the heart of the people melt: but I wholly followed the LORD my God.JOS.14:9 And Moses sware on that day, saying, Surely the land whereon thy feet have trodden shall be thine inheritance, and thy children's for ever, because thou hast wholly followed the LORD my God.JOS.14:10 And now, behold, the LORD hath kept me alive, as he said, these forty and five years, even since the LORD spake this word unto Moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness: and now, lo, I am this day fourscore and five years old.JOS.14:11 As yet I am as strong this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, both to go out, and to come in.JOS.14:12 Now therefore give me this mountain, whereof the LORD spake in that day; for thou heardest in that day how the Anakims were there, and that the cities were great and fenced: if so be the LORD will be with me, then I shall be able to drive them out, as the LORD said.JOS.14:13 And Joshua blessed him, and gave unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh Hebron for an inheritance.JOS.14:14 Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite unto this day, because that he wholly followed the LORD God of Israel.JOS.14:15 And the name of Hebron before was Kirjatharba; which Arba was a great man among the Anakims. And the land had rest from war.

Dear listeners, This week on the Hemp Show, we're dropping the needle on a very special commemorative box set from the 2025 Global Industrial Hemp Fiber Summit in Raleigh, North Carolina. In this first installment — Sides 1 and 2 — of a three-episode miniseries, we hear from a wide range of voices building the fiber side of the hemp industry from the ground up: farmers, machine makers, wet processors, entrepreneurs and professors. They're working in the field and in the lab, bridging research and manufacturing, and helping steer the industrial hemp conversation back to its core: fiber, hurd and regenerative purpose. NIHC's Global Fiber Hemp Summit in Raleigh was special. No question about that. And I thought it deserved special treatment here on the podcast. I am hopeful that I was able to capture the energy in the room. I interviewed nearly 40 people during the summit, and they each have a story to tell about their part of the supply chain. Forty interviews is too long for one show. It's too long for two shows. but it's perfect for this three-disc set. I'm calling it a “box set” because that's how it feels — like a classic record album like "All Things Must Pass," "Joe's Garage," "Europe '72," or "The Last Waltz."

IntroWhat happens when you bond so hard with The Hip that they feel like your chosen family? This week, I'm joined by John Paul from Toronto—a lifelong fan who's seen it all, from camping trips at Guelph Lake to getting kicked out of the Phoenix. We dig deep into Song 12 on the countdown and talk about the powerful, personal connections that make this band more than just music.Episode SummaryWe cover the full arc of John Paul's fandom—from hearing those first singles on Toronto radio to buying Day for Nighton CD, obsessing over Phantom Power, and falling in love with the band's live energy. We also swap stories about unforgettable Hip shows, camping mischief, and the heartbreak of being booted out before the third song.About the GuestJohn Paul is the quintessential Toronto Hip fan: thoughtful, passionate, and a little self-deprecating. He first fell for the band thanks to classic singles and videos on MuchMusic (shout out to Gord in the Bruins sweater), and over time found himself pulled in deeper with every album.He's been to half a dozen Hip gigs (plus a solo Gord show), but his fandom is built just as much on introspection—how the band offered him a sense of family, safety, and permission to see the world through Gord's strange and beautiful eyes.Why It MattersThis episode isn't just about Song 12. It's about how The Tragically Hip can be an anchor in your life. How they can make you feel at home, even when you're homesick in Korea. How they become a mirror for your values, your memories, and your sense of who you want to be in the world.It's also about the messy side of fandom: the near-religious devotion, the gigs that changed you, the ones you missed, the ones you got kicked out of while pleading your case like a lawyer on fire.If you've ever felt like The Hip knew you before you even knew yourself, this one's going to hit close to home.ClosingHuge thanks to John Paul from Toronto for bringing so much honesty, humour, and raw fandom to this week's episode.If this week's track sparks a memory for you, share it with us!

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Thank you for joining me today and following us throughout Project 23. If you would like to learn more about this project, click the link to discover more and partner with us. Our text today is Mark 13:1-2: And as he came out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Look, Teacher, what wonderful stones and what wonderful buildings!” And Jesus said to him, “Do you see these great buildings? There will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down.” — Mark 13:1-2 The disciples were stunned by the glory of the temple. And rightly so. It was massive. Breathtaking. Some stones weighed over 500 tons. It dominated the Jerusalem skyline. And to the Jewish people, it wasn't just beautiful, it was sacred. It housed God's presence, their heritage, and their national identity. So when one disciple turns to Jesus and says, “Look at these stones!” He's marveling at a structure he believed would last forever. But Jesus responds with an upsetting declaration and prophecy: “Not one stone will be left on another.” In other words: "Don't get too attached to this building and its stones." Jesus was never impressed by architecture or religious infrastructure. He saw through the facade to the corruption, pride, and misplaced worship inside. And he knew it was all temporary. Forty years later, in A.D. 70, the Roman army would destroy the temple—stone by stone—just as Jesus said. We still marvel at impressive things. I do. Impressive buildings, homes, and cars. I love to look at them. But even the most beautiful, durable, and influential things in this world can, and will, crumble. Our homes. Our careers. Our churches. Our bank accounts. Our platforms. If your hope is built on what appears impressive, be prepared to have your hope dashed, as it will ultimately collapse. And that's not prophetic, it's just the truth. But this does not mean we should not appreciate beauty or build meaningful things. Jesus is reminding us not to confuse the temporary with the eternal. So don't be fooled by the size of the stones. Fix your eyes on the Cornerstone, the One who cannot be shaken. #FirmFoundation, #Mark13, #EternalPerspective ASK THIS: What made the temple so significant to the disciples? Why does Jesus predict its destruction so bluntly? What “stones” are you trusting in today that may not last? How can you live more focused on the eternal this week? DO THIS: Identify one earthly thing you've been placing too much trust in. Name it, then ask God to shift your focus back to what's eternal. PRAY THIS: Lord, I'm tempted to be impressed by what won't last. Help me trust in what's eternal. Anchor my life in what cannot be shaken. Amen. PLAY THIS: “Firm Foundation.”

Episode No. 716 features curator Eleanor Nairne and artist Francesca Fuchs. With Wells Fray-Smith, Nairne is the co-curator of "Noah Davis," an eponymous retrospective at the Hammer Museum, University of California, Los Angeles. Davis, who passed away from a rare cancer in 2015 at age 32, was a painter whose work addressed current affairs, every day life, family histories, and architecture. Davis often addressed the subjects that interested him by fusing his interest in art history to his interest in vernacular sources, such as flea market photographs or personal archives. The exhibition is on view through August 31. A catalogue is available from Prestel. Amazon and Bookshop offer it for $33-46. The Menil Collection, Houston is presenting "The Space Between Looking and Loving: Francesca Fuchs and the de Menil House" through November 2. The exhibition starts, as it were, in 1970, when John de Menil wrote to German classical archeologist Dr. Werner Fuchs (1927–2016) seeking to identify the subject of a Roman male torso in his collection. Forty-nine years later, Francesca Fuchs's discovery of the black-and-white photographs John de Menil sent to her father that depict the marble torso led Fuchs to find the original letter in the museum archives. "The Space Between" presents Fuchs's response to the unanswered letter and familial collection through Fuchs' own paintings, selections from the Menil's collection and archives, and more. The exhibition was curated by Paul R. Davis. As mentioned on the program: See Francesca Fuchs' letter to John de Menil (also below); and Fuchs' 2013 exhibition at Texas Gallery.

IntroWhat happens when your Hip fandom runs so deep you can rattle off setlists, sneak into soundchecks, and still get choked up thinking about the last Kingston show? This week, I'm joined by Andrew from sunny Tampa, Florida—who's here to remind us what living for the live show really means as we crack open Song 13 on the countdown.Episode SummaryWe cover a lifetime of cross-border Hip fandom, the thrill of hearing the band test songs live before they were released, and how seeing Gord Downie sweat and snarl on stage changed everything. We also dig into this week's track, exploring its hypnotic build, raw emotion, and how it turned every venue into a sweaty, bouncing mess of humanity.About the GuestAndrew grew up on the shores of Lake Ontario before moving to Florida, but the Hip was always there—on the radio, in the background, waiting to take over his life. He caught his first show in 2000 and was immediately hooked, going on to see 40+ gigs, sometimes three or four nights in a row.He shares stories about sneaking into soundchecks back in the Wild West days of touring, building his calendar around Hip shows every summer, and collecting truly one-of-a-kind memorabilia—from a Gord Downey mic stand base to backstage tour books you can't buy anywhere.Why It MattersThis one's for the die-hards. For anyone who's built their year around Hip gigs, who's stayed up late chasing setlists online, who's made friends for life in the pit.Andrew's memories take us back to the gritty, real-life side of fandom—where you weren't just listening to The Tragically Hip, you were living them. From the heartbreak of shows missed to the joy of watching Gord turn a song into something unrecognizable, this episode is a love letter to the messy, sweaty, unfiltered magic of live music.If you've ever lost yourself in the push and pull of a Hip crowd, or felt Gord's words cut straight through you—even when you didn't know what the hell he meant—this one's gonna hit home.ClosingHuge thanks to Andrew from Tampa for dropping all his stories, honesty, and Hip history on us this week.If this week's episode brings back memories, tell us about it. Send us your Hipstory, drop us a voice memo, or come argue your Top 10 in the Facebook group.We'll be back next Monday with Song 12 on the countdown—don't miss it.So there's that.Connect with Us
