Send us a textPrepare for a taste sensation journey unlike anything we've experienced before on the podcast. We're diving into two extraordinary offerings from Four Score Brewing Company in Gettysburg, PA, and they've left us absolutely stunned. For the first time ever, we award back-to-back perfect 10/10 scores to their Jahamba series beers - the Peach Pomegranate White Tea Frost and Strawberry Peanut Brittle.These aren't your typical beers. With milkshake-like consistency and authentic flavor profiles, they blur the line between beverage and dessert. The peach pomegranate delivers genuine fruit flavors that taste "straight off the tree," while the strawberry peanut brittle amazes with its seamless transition from fresh strawberry to the distinctive caramelized notes of brittle. Though labeled as "heavily fruited sours," neither exhibits traditional sourness - making them surprisingly approachable for all palates.Between beer tastings, we catch up on Rick's exciting week - from new concrete being poured at his home to the purchase of a camper that promises future adventures. We also venture into a lively discussion of Gettysburg's historical significance, battlefield tours, and local attractions that make it worth visiting beyond just its excellent brewing scene.What makes these beers truly special is how they showcase brewing innovation at its finest. Four Score has crafted something that defies conventional beer categories while delivering an unforgettable drinking experience. The thick, creamy mouthfeel and perfect flavor execution demonstrate master brewing technique that deserves recognition.Join us for this celebration of craft beer excellence, hilarious tangents, and the shared joy of discovering something truly extraordinary in your glass. Have you experienced a beer that completely blew your expectations away? We'd love to hear about it!Support the showwww.anotherreasontodrink.com

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court ordered and end to the count of ballots that can't be authenticated. But as a Senate recount is underway, Dems are suing to count absentee ballots received after election day. Voting shenanigans, and the morning's latest news on Hour 4 of the Tuesday Bob Rose Show for 11-19-24.
Historian and Patron Kenneth Gavin joins us to talk about Gettysburg during the American Revolution. That's right, it existed before July 1, 1863. This is Part 1 of a 2-part series exploring the make-up of the town, how it contributed to the war effort, the economy and more. I really enjoyed learning about Gettysburg in a different era of American history and I think you will too. Ken is an engaging guest and we will have him on often.

It's a week after Election Day and what a fascinating election it was. You can see my initial assessment of the election in my newsletter (link below), but in this podcast I'm going for a bit of a palette cleanser. If you've been feeling overwhelmed or generally weary with all the election coverage, may I recommend the Gettysburg Address? Arguably one of the greatest speeches, if not the greatest, in American history, Abraham Lincoln's brief words memorializing the Gettysburg battlefield present us with enduring lessons on the nature of the American state, and casts an expansive moral vision for the future of the republic. Today on the podcast, I'm joined by Lincoln scholar Dr. Matt Van Hook who is an Assistant Director and Associate Professor in the Torrey Honors College at Biola University. We recorded this podcast before the November 5th election, but it's a timely walkthrough of a timeless work of political thought and prose.

Not only does the release of this episode happen to occur on Super Bowl Sunday, but it also happens to correspond with Abraham Lincoln's birthday. With that being the case, Michelle devised an interesting idea for a topic based on a key line in one of our 16th U.S. President's most famous speeches. And with that, this week's episode, Four Score(s) And Seven Years Ago was born. But what could that possibly mean? Well, here you go. We're looking back at seven years ago and sharing our four favorite Disney Movie musical scores from that year. There were a lot of great films released in 2016 and the music that supported them was exceptional, as well. Find out which ones made our lists! Once we complete our Four Scores And Seven Years Ago segment, it's time for the Disney Stories of the Week. In this episode, we share some of the big information that came out of this week's Walt Disney Company earnings report. That includes some huge movie and park news. We also tell you some exciting information that those of you who like a clean, sparkly room when you return from the parks will particularly enjoy. As always, we wrap it all up with tips that might help you on your next vacation. And, don't forget to visit our favorite Authorized Disney Vacation Planner, Nate with Main Street and More Travel, to give you concierge-level service planning your next vacation.

There are a couple references in this title that are relevant to the subject matter in this episode. First and foremost, Rob announced a release that he collab'd on which has come and gone by the time this episode was edited. Sorry Rob. Can't wait to try that delicious beer when we see you again! Secondly, Rob and Tom talked about a "patriot", not an actual patriot such as Abraham Lincoln, but rather a modern day patriot...also commonly referred to as a disgruntled jackass. We'd like to thank "The Beer Patriot" for providing some much needed content albeit at his own expense....cheers to that clown. Moving on, how much is that doggie in the beer group? Want to find out...tune in! All this and more, including baby formula c+s offers (these are the real patriots) and local and national releases!

Abraham Lincoln - The Gettysburg Address - The Great Task Remaining Before Us. Hi, I'm Christy Shriver, and we're here to discuss books that have changed the world and have changed us. I am Garry Shriver, and this is the How to. Love Lit Podcast. This episode we will focus on one more American document very much connected to the Letter from Birmingham jail, but in a very special way. This document is memorized every year by students all across the United States. It's a two minute, ten sentence speech of only 272 words. In fact, it wasn't called a speech at all, but instead it a “few appropriate remarks” given at the conclusion of a full day of ceremony dedicating America's first national cemetery. Today it is called the Gettysburg Address given by the 16th American president, President Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln, very unusually accepted the invitation extended to him by a young lawyer by the name of David Wills who had been tasked with organizing the event. One unusual thing was that on the day of the speech, although he diidn't know it yet, he had an early stage of small pox and was sick. His speech wasn't even the highlight of the event. That honor would go to former governor and renowned orator Edward Everett. It was received by the press with typical reviews- the democratic press denounced it, the republican papers praised it- as Lincoln was a Republican, that was to be expected. However, today the Gettysburg Addressed is engraved inside the Lincoln Memorial, and the Lincoln Memorial has become the most visited location in the United States Nation's capital. Over 7 million people from around the world are expected to visit it next year. It is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and everyone who visits it will read the words spoken on that day. The question we want consider today is why? Is it because it's such a brilliant example of sophisticated parallelism- it is that, btw- containing ten sentences of complex structure organizing and juxtaposing complicated idea after idea- in simplified single syllable prose that was both easy to listen to and highly understandable. Christy, as interesting as that is for an English teacher, I'm sure that's not that reason. True- a second idea I've heard thrown away is that it's famous just because it is short and we like Lincoln. It was easily printed that day, and newspapers carried it in its entirety around the world. It's something easy to make kids memorize in school, and we've just gotten used to memorizing it. Well, of course that's true too, and in that case, and by that logic, it elevatates this speech to the level of Shakespeare. Many of us were forced to learn, “But soft what light through yonder window breaks” from Romeo or Juliet or the the lines I've seen you force on students from Julius Caesar, “Friends, Romans, Countrymen, Lend me your ear”. But, of course, as a historian, I just don't think the literary reasons are enough to account for its enduring and even transcendental appeal. Okay, well, we could look at the history. Of course, there are historical reasons that it's famous. The Battle of Gettysburg was the bloodiest engagement in the entire Civil War. The statistics speak for themselves, after only three days of fighting, over 170,000 casualities- of those 53,000 soldiers lay dead on the ground. It's unimaginable the level of death. And, I guess, even I must adeit, that's more compelling than parallelism. But of course, that really is only interesting to those of us who are American. Those are signicant to the history of this country, and of course that matters, but we would like to suggest that the reasons for reading and thinking about the Gettysburg Addres are much more transcendental.- This document, although an American one is belongs not only to the American continent. The words are universal and it is because of their universality are worthy of our attention and analysis. The Gettysburg address, although over 150 years old, resonates with practicality even in regard to today's political and philosophical discourse. So Garry, before we address the transcendent qualities of these two paragraphs, let's begin by putting the Gettysburg address in its original historical context. For sure, and, of course, I agree completely that it is very much transcendental in its appeal- and I want to to suggest that from the moment it was uttered, the audience knew immediately that it was important and perhaps even immortal. There are many myths surrounding the origins of this address. There's one that says he composed it on the train on a napkin; another that he wrote it on an envelope- both totally untrue. Lincoln likely started writing it not long after the battle ended in July. There's also stories that no one cared about it at the time or recognized its greatness. That's also not true. On November 19, 1863, the day Lincoln delivered these words, he got up to speak, and began to read his two minute speech very slowly. However, he was interrupted five times by spontaneous applause. (by most accounts, the number of interruptions is still in dispute), but regardless- he's literally being stopped as people considered each idea. Well, if that's the case, I don't understand why anyone would suggest, he wasn't good or well-received. The first reason is because it's generally believed that when Lincoln finished speaking, in typical Lincoln fashion, he turned to Marshal Lamon, a US marshal there, and said,: "Lamon, that speech won't scour! It is a flat failure and the people are disappointed." That sounds brutal, Well, it does but if you study Lincoln, you quickly see that self-depricating comments like that are normal for him. He was always underselling his rhetoric, even though he was extremely skilled at it, to the point that he had famously took down the more educated more renowned Stephen Douglass in their famous debates .. So, you can't go by Lincoln. Instead of going by Lincoln's off handed remark, a better judge would be the opinion of the key note speaker of the event, Edward Everett- the man man universally considered the undisputed greatest orator of his generation. Everett had been center stage for the entire day and had been given two hours to speak., but his opinion of Lincoln's appropriate remarks could be summarized by a comment Everett himself made to Lincoln a bit later, "I should be glad, if I could flatter myself that I came as near to the central idea of the occasion, in two hours, as you did in two minutes."- and yes- Everett's speech was all of two hours. Wow. Clearly, Lincoln made an impression on his immediate audience. So, let's remember who that audience was,- obviously there were politicians, dignitaries and journalists- this was the first time in the United States that the federal government had built a cemetery, so that was a big deal. But beyond the VIP guests, there were thousands of Union soldiers, relatives of soldiers, and regular people who lived in the town of Gettysburg- which was actually a bustling county seat, even if only 2000 residents today seems small. There were people there whose friends and family members were literally buried in the dirt before them. Of the 15,000 people in attendance that day, none would escape the personal pain of loss represented by that cemetery. For many of us today, it's strange to think of 15,000 people coming out to a cemetery dedication, even an important one, even one where the president would be at. In fact, the American Civil War itself is difficult to understand. Of course, we know it was about slavery, we also know that most of it was fought in the South, but realistically, and almost all of the casualities were white men. This is not an uprising of people liberating themselves at all- it's not a revolution or a rebellion. No, there had been a few slave rebellions, notably Nat Turner, but he'd had no weapons. More recently and more realistically and more frightening to the South was the one John Brown almost pulled one off at Harper's Ferry in 1859. But those events were before and not part of Civil War It was the South that succeeded, not the North. Lincoln was in favor of preserving the Union, not splitting it up, and although he was against slavery, he was willing, at least in the beginning to be satisfied by just keeping it from expanding. True, he was also in favor of compensated emancipation. His idea was to emancipate the slaves by buying them from slave owners for $400 a person- but this was something the Southern States rejected. Well and because Gettysburg isn't even in the South; you'd image that slavery would feel far away.- the way slave labor feels today. We don't actually see it, so we tend to dismiss it. There were no slaves in Gettysburg. And finally, a fact, I learned when moving to the the South but interesting to understand, even to this day many in the South don't claim that the Civil War was a war over slavery. True- there is a lot to be confused about the Civil War in general and the Battle of Gettysburg particularly. Let's go with the easy stuff than get to the most complicated. First of all- location- Gettysburg is in Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania, if you look on a map is between Maryland to the South and New York to the North. It's 82 north of Washington DC. BTW, just for a reference Washington DC, which of course is the capital of the North is basically halfway between Gettysburg and Richmond, the capital of the South is in Virginia- Gettyburg is a little under a two hour drive to DC and Richmond a little over two hours- depending on the traffic, of course. So if DC is halfway between Richmond and Gettysburg, it seems kind of out of the way for the. South to be invading it. Well, that's true too, but let's go back to the issue of why they were fighting to begin with. For a Long time, on both sides of the Atlantic that was up for debate. On December 20, 1860, a special convention in South Carolina unanimously voted to succeed. Now remember, the Gettysburg address isn't until 1863, but even after 1863, the US will fight for two more years. Not long after that, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, and Louisiana left and eventually a total of 11 Southern states seceded from the United States. If you had asked any Southern farm boy fighting on the ground why he was fighting, he would have likely told you he was fighting for “States Rights”- and of course that was true. Most of the young men fighting in the field were not Slave holders, nor would ever be. But the aristocratic Southern leaders who did own slaves and who controlled all of the money, the media, and the assets wanted the right to control their way of life. They preached that democracy itself- was under siege because of the election of the radical Republican anti-slavery Mid-western uneducated redneck lawyer Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln's election marked the first time that a president had been elected without the vote of a single Southern State, and it was foreseeable that the South would never again be represented as they had been in the past- after all there were more states now and that trend was growing. So, Lincoln was the threat to slavery. Yes- but it went beyond that really, if you can believe that. We can't just look at the Civil War from an American perspective- the entire world was watching- and monarchies across the ocean were watching nervously. And this is where our arrogance of the presence really has a difficult time conceptualizing a world 150 years. In 1860, there weren't democracies around world, and in fact, the whole idea of democracy seemed ridiculous for most of the world. It is true that African-Americans could not vote in America, nor could women, but most American men were given a voice as to their future- and America was the only place this had happened up to this point. Otto von Bismarck who led the great nation of Germany during their reunification days and beyond voiced the general opinion of many leaders on the continent when he said that in his early life his tendencies were all toward republicanism, but he had discovered when you have governed men for several years , that a liberal will be transformed from a Republican to a monarchist.” He, along with most on planet earth on that time, believed you could not build a great nation or build prosperity without authority. Leaders had to be authoritarian to be successful- and many great leaders who had built great kingdoms around the world over the course of human history- had proven that to be true. The generally accepted idea, of the inhabitants on our planet, to quote Orwell is that some people really are are more equal than others, and those who are the most equal are entitled to commensurate wealth and power. The reason I reference Bismarck and European history is that the European experience of the 1840s seemed to confirm this. Democratic uprising after uprising faltered. - Of course, most of us are familiar with the French Revolution which sadly descended into chaos and then tyranny with Napoleon. That's a predominant example, but it's not the only one. Spain and Russia had both had democratic uprisings come and fail. The Revolutions of 1848 had seen Republican uprisings all over the continent, but they all failed. Monarchs held the authority- monarchs knew what was best. Regular people were not smart enough, not informed enough, nor disciplined enough to rule themselves. Average people needed to be told what to do and what to think- and most importantly they needed to stay in their place. And so…The European monarchs were filled with schadenfreude to watch the red-neck, ill mannered, uncouth average under-educated Americans blow up their entire democratic experiment with war not even 100 years after Thomas Jefferson arrogantly pronounced to the European aristocracy the new idea that all men were created equal and they were going to build a country on that principle. The Spanish ambassador wrote back to Queen Isabella, “The Union is in agony and Our mission is not to delay its death.” And the very idea that President Lincoln, would risk the entire experiment under the banner of equality and the equality of African-Americans- slaves- no less- was absurd to consider, and to watch the ship wreck would be a relief. For most of the world, the Southern model of aristocratic control of resources, the authority and rule of those who know better was the proven model- and even though most European countries did not support slavery up until the Emancipation Proclamation and then the Gettysburg address, they didn't see the Civil War as entirely about that. The south was very much an oligarchy that was directly descended from European style feudalism. So, by States rights, we mean more than slavery but including slavery. For sure at the beginning of the war, but by 1863, and really through the rhetoric of the Gettysburg Address- Lincoln shifted the war from being about states rights. He made the central issue one of human equality. If America was to be a land of liberty, it would be about every man's God-given right to be who can make himself to be before a just and omniscient God. It made no sense for half of it to own slaves. It's not about the states at all- it's about the people- the people who inhabited the land of liberty. And had this always been Lincoln's personal belief- in the equality of every human before God? That's always been the question, although, I don't even know if it's a fair question. When we think about Thomas Jefferson who wrote the Declaration of Independence, for example, we think about his personal inconsistency of owning slaves. But, I think, and I recommend going back and listening to our episode on the Declaration of Independence, that even Jefferson's ideals evolved and though he never fully realized them in his personal life, he did believe them, If Jefferson and Washington can be called the Founding Fathers of the American experiment, which they are, Lincoln led the country to make the personal sacrifices to establish it. In 1861, Lincoln became the 16th president of the United States. If we look at his ideas on slavery and equality from those early years, we can see that he always hated the idea of owning people, and he always believed in economic equality. What we can't see for sure is that he believed in social equality like we understand it today. But. he always hated human bondage. He believed that African-Americans should be allowed to work and have financial freedom to build their own lives. He spoke of African-Americans as citizens and as humans. But, at the same time, as president, Lincoln did not believe, he had the authority to simply abolish slavery simply based on his personal convictions. It was protected by the US constitution. For Lincoln, it would take a constitutional amendment to free them- Which is what eventually happened. Yes, but by 1863, we can see through Lincoln's public statements, that he was willing to walk back the idea that he couldn't single-handedly free slaves. He had given African-Americans equality under military law- they had the right to serve the country- and over 200,000 of them would do so by the end of the war. The. Southern States were in rebellion, and because of that, the North had the right to seize property as a wartime concession. If slaves were property, he would seize them and free them. And, so he did. In September of 1862, five days after the battle of Antietam- the first Union non-loss and the single deadliest day of the Civil War, Lincoln makes the statement that as of January 1, 1863, “all persons held as slaves" within the rebellious states "are, and henceforward shall be free." It is called the Emancipation Proclamation. The language was charged , but in reality, it had no real authority. It only applied to the states in rebellion, and there wasn't any real way of enforcing it besides the war they were already waging, But what it did do, was signal what was coming, should the South fail to succeed things would change drastically. And so we finally get to Gettysburg. The Battle of Gettysburg would come in July after the Emancipation Proclamation. So, how and why does the Southern Army get all the way to Pennsylvania?. General Robert E Lee, who was the most important leader of the South, the leader of the notorious Southern Army decided time was not on the side of the South They needed the people in the North to feel the pain of the war; they needed to face the North on Northern soil. And, an election year was coming up. There was northern opposition to the war called the copperhead movement. Lee believed a quick strike victory in northern territory would fuel the anti-war copperheaad movement, so there was a political motivation as well. The Southern Army had better leadership and their troops were more skilled. The problem was that the North had more of everything- else more men, more guns, more food, more resources. The war was going on too long. Lee felt he must bring the war to the homes of the people in the North, so they would demand that Lincoln relinquish. It was a gamble, but he marched his army of 75,000 well-trained battle hardened soldiers onto Pennsylvania soil. General George Meade was Lincoln's choice to lead the Union Army of the Potomac to confront them- although they didn't really know for sure they would be meeting in Gettysburg, they knew there was going to be a clash. The Union Army had around 85,000 soldiers. After three days of fighting, the confederates lost 23,000 men; the Union lost 28,000- but the confederate army was forced to retreat out of Pennsylvania. So, in theory Gettysburg was Union victory, but in reality who wins with so much death- it was a pyrrhic victory at best. Exactly, and we must understand that the losses were felt. 12 Southern states and 18 northern states sent troops to Gettysburg. Every family at this point in the war had experienced personal loss to some degree. In fact, just to put the entire Civil War in perspective, more Americans died in the Civil war than in World War 1, 2, Vietnam, Korea, and Afghanistan combined. At the time there was an estimated 620,000 deaths out of a population of 31 million, modern day historians, however, looking back at the historical record claim that number is likely closer to 820,000- in other words 1 out of every 10 white American males was dead within those four years. And so standing at that cemetery dedication in November of 1863 looking out at the ones who had survived was the man mostly responsible for the carnage- and not just the carnage of Gettysburg, but for all of it and for the more that was to come. Lincoln wanted to be at that cemetery dedication and he felt compelled to put in words the WHY. He had been thinking on what to say for a while. How could he ever explain what was worth so much death? For an answer like that, one must think transcendentallym and so what he began to speech, he uttered familiar words, words easily recognizable as coming from the diction and speech patterns of the commonly read and understood King James version of the Bible. “Four Score and Seven Years ago, our Fathers brought forth on This Continent a New nation conceived in Liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.” Psalm 90:10 in the Bible reads “ The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years,” The subtext may be lost on us, most who have never even opened the King James Version of the Bible, but in 1863, there is no one who would have not immediately recognized the phrase “score” meaning 20 years- that's how the bible talked. The allusion and subtext is obvious. Our lives our short- counted in scores—the life of our country is too- four score- a human life- but when we came to this country, when our fathers came here, they came here on a Biblical principle that every man was created by God and by virtue of God's creation we are all of equal value. I am of value- and therefore- so are you. It's about African-American slaves- yes- but it's about all of us- if they are not equal- than no one is. That's the subtext. And let me add this, it wasn't just the founding fathers that came to America. Immigration to America during the Civil War years was in full throttle, which is strange if you think about it. 1 out of every 4 Union soldier was a first generation immigrant. Think about that, thousands came to America, got off the boat, picked up a gun, and fought for a country they had barely met. Why do that? Why did they leave Europe? Was it because of that very promise of equality? I think it's likely. Many came because of a promise- this promise. Now we are engaged in a great Civil War, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. See, he's addressing the idea of republicanism or democracy in general. They told us it wasn't possible. Is it true that a bunch of under-educated rednecks carving out their own lives on their own terms- on the terms that every one is truly equal, is it true that such a group of people can exist? We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is all together fitting and proper that we should do this. Let me add, this, if you go to the Gettysburg Cemetery today, you will see there is the official cemetery where all the soldiers are buried, but near it, still in the park, is another cemetery- a normal one. This cemetery at the time of the dedication was called Citizens Cemetery. Like most cemeteries, it has beautiful headmarkers of every shape and size- some big because the deceased is an important person, some smaller- we've all seen a cemetery- but if you look across from Citizens cemetery to the one Lincoln was dedicating, the military one- you will see that every burial marker is the same. The men that are buried there are not distinguished by class, status or anything- no one is more equal than the other- the 15,000 there on that inaugural day would have seen this distinction. They would have understood that those markers represented the idea for which their loved ones died. But, in a larger, sense we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The Brave men, living and dead, who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. And of course, those are the most ironic lines of the entire speech. After Lincolns' assassination in April 1865, Senator CharlesSumner of Massachusetts wrote of the Gettysburg address, “That speech, uttered at the field of Gettysburg…and now sanctified by the martyrdom of its author, is a monumental act. In the modesty of his nature he said ‘the world will little note, nor long remember what we say here; but it can never forget what they did here.' He was mistaken. The world at once noted what he said, and will never cease to remember it.” And of course, it is at this point that he changes directions in the speech. It is not about looking back anymore. It's not about honoring anymore- it's about moving forward. What is this war about? What is worth so much carnage and personal loss. Here is the answer. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.” We must not quit. We must not quit. We must not quit. You know, the words “under God” were not in the manuscript Lincoln used on the day. It wasn't part of the prepared remarks. We know he said under God because it was in the transcripts and in the copies made later, but it was not in the original version of the text. It was spontaneious but it was not casually uttered. In fact here at the end there are other intentional phrases that a Biblical church-goer would recognize- the idea of a new Birth is a New Testament idea from the words of Jesus Christ- the promise that every sinner can have a second chance- a redemptive moment to start again. The phrases “resting place” , “might life”, “in vain”, “shall not perish from the earth”, are all taken from different parts of Biblical text that were recognizable. So, why do that? Why harken to Biblical language. I think it's because of that last phrase- the one where he repeated the same word three times- three different way' of the people, by the people, for the people- it is about the dignity and worth of every human- you plus I. It is the shared belief of the crowd that day, that life, liberty, freedom- it was one thing- and it was a gift from God- something the state or no person- no matter how great or powerful- had the right to take from another. There IS something greater than any great man or human institution- and that is a creator God. For the monotheistic audience of that day, in that crowd, Lincoln was declaring that it was not by his authority, but it was by virtue of God's authority that they gave their lives. They had a fighting chance, if they would defend it, that their children, their neighbors and all the people of this land would indeed be free. And of course, it is for the transcendency of this reason that when Dr. King got up to give his I Have a Dream Speech 100 years later, he would start with his own reference to that Biblical language Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity. Yes, and when President Barak Obama got up to give his first inaugural address in 2009, he references Gettysburg, and ends his speech with these words, and I quote President Obama, “Let it be said by our children's children that when we were tested we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back nor did we falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God's grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations.” And of course, it is transcendent; this is not just an American ideal or even just a Christian one- although that was the exigence of Lincoln's moment . Today, almost half the countries of the world are democracies of some sort. Today, only a little over half of the residents of the United States claim to be Christian. But the ideal of a government of the people, by the people and for the people- resonates in the human heart. The proposition that all men are created equal- as limited as we have understood it at times, is still the heartbeat of many human souls. Christy, you're starting to sound like a preacher. HA!! If I can sound like Lincoln, that would be a compliment. Indeed, it would be- thank you for listening. ladeedadeeda

The message this week is "Four Score and Seven" by Pastor Cole Tawney discussing James 5:1–12 in our sermon series called "Faith Works" taking us through the book of James. Thanks for listening to Riverwood Chapel's sermon!
Actor (I Know This Much Is True, Red Dead Redemption II) and Infinity Podcast co-host Scott Thomas introduces me to an album that is epic in nearly every possible way. We discussed Titus Andronicus' second album, The Monitor, a Civil War-themed treatment of grappling with life as a young white man in an “uptight” North Jersey suburb. We talked about Scott's current projects, the experience he had listening to The Monitor for the first time and what (nearly) each of the album's 10 tracks means.I had a first-of-its-kind fail on this episode. I unintentionally skipped the track, Theme From “Cheers,” so my apologies to those looking forward to a discussion of that song. For those who don't know this album, it isn't actually the theme from “Cheers.”In No Future Part Three: Escape From No Future, Patrick Stickles sings a line “senior year in Mahwah,” which I had interpreted as his (or his character's) senior year at Mahwah High School. I later realized that, given that Stickles attended Ramapo College in Mahwah, he was probably referring to his senior year of college.In discussing the reference in A More Perfect Union to the Newark Bears baseball team, I had said they were or may still be an independent league team. The Bears folded in 2013.Scott had recommended the series that the Dissect podcast did earlier this year on on Kanye West's YEEZUS.

Today's episode is a quickie but packs a punch! So many odd topics discussed. From the boys reminiscing about Mickey's 40's to A1 steak sauce. Also, French dressing is bull shit along with Circus Peanuts and Necco Wafers. You know it's true. Dick, then shares a story about a homeless woman being pushed in a grocery store cart in the actual kids seat. That was cool. Then, The Linda Lindas, go viral on social media for their hit song, Racist Sexist Boys. Finally, the episode completes with a short BDSM story and the sandwich artist from Subway's nerve ending hanging out of his mouth. Dope shit! Enjoy!
Warning: Tangents galore! In the main topic, Whitney and Alexandria discuss staples from their childhood. This episode also includes mild spoilers for the NBC television show "New Amsterdam" and current event discussion (CW: racism). Subscribe to see video at www.patreon.com/twinishpodcast
