In this episode we talk with Fatemeh Ekhtesari and Mehdi Mousavi about poetry as a practise in Iran. We talk about poetry's strong roots in Iranian culture, and how it's being used today as a weapon in the fight against the Iranian regime. We talk about censorship in Iran and the poetic movement post-modern Ghazal. We discuss how the regime exercise systematic violence, torture and discrimination against its population, and the ways in which Fatemeh Ekhtesari and Mehdi Mousavi have used their poetry as a political tool in mobilising change. Fatemeh Ekhtesari is a poet, editor, Human rights activist and midwife from Iran. She has published four collections of poetry, two collections of short stories, and two collections of prose. Her poetry is translated into English, German, Norwegian, Swedish and Spanish. Mehdi Mousavi is a poet, editor, Human rights activist  and pharmacist from Iran. He has published fourteen collections of poetry, two novels and a book on literature theory. As a teacher Mousavi has led underground poetry schools in hiding from Iranian authorities for many years. In 2015 Ekhtesari and Mousavi fled Iran together. Ekhtesari had been convicted eleven and a half years in prison and ninety-nine whiplashes, Mousavi nine years in prison and ninety-nine lashes. Both sentences were on the grounds of their poetic activism. They came to Limmehammer in 2017 through Icorn as writes in exile. This episode of the podcast was recorded in February 2024, at an event in Gamle Munch in Oslo in front of an audience. The event was supported by Frittord. I hope you enjoy the conversation. 

1995-1997: The Freedom Fight (https://thankskenpenders.tumblr.com/readingorder)Albert Speer was a German architect who served as Minister of Armaments and War Production in Nazi Germany during most of World War II. After the war, Speer was among the 24 "major war criminals" charged by the International Military Tribunal for Nazi atrocities. Speer had carefully constructed an image of himself as an apolitical technocrat who deeply regretted having failed to discover the monstrous crimes of the Third Reich. He was found guilty of war crimes and crimes against humanity, principally for the use of slave labor, narrowly avoiding a death sentence. Having served his full term, Speer was released in 1966.Archie Comics Sonic The Hedgehog #3000:00 Intro04:56 The Return of Uncle Chuck Part I21:15 The Return of Uncle Chuck Part II37:56 The Return of Uncle Chuck Part III57:07 Who Keeps Stealing My Chaos Emeralds ?!01:05:04 Outro-----Gotta Talk Fast is an oral review of Archie Comics' Sonic the Hedgehog.

The Menendez Brothers' Freedom Fight Hits Another Wall—And This One's Personal New Twist in the Menendez Case: Inside the Fight Over Resentencing   The judge called it “stupid.” And honestly, that might be the most accurate legal description anyone's used in this decades-long saga. Erik and Lyle Menendez, who've been in prison for the past 29 years for killing their parents, just had their shot at a new sentencing delayed yet again—this time because no one could agree on whether they're allowed to look at a report they already have. Let's rewind. In 1989, the Menendez brothers walked into their parents' Beverly Hills mansion and shot Jose and Kitty Menendez to death. It was brutal. No question. But what came next split the country. The prosecution said it was a cold-blooded, calculated murder for inheritance. The defense said it was self-defense after a lifetime of sexual abuse at the hands of their father. The jury went with the prosecution, and in 1996, both brothers were sentenced to life without parole. Now, decades later, the conversation shifted. The state of California, under Governor Gavin Newsom's guidance, has been looking more closely at long-term sentences, rehabilitation, and second chances. That's where the Menendez brothers come back into focus. Former LA DA George Gascón—before getting pushed out—had asked for their sentences to be reconsidered, recommending they get 50 years with the possibility of parole. But Mark Geragos, the brothers' longtime attorney, is swinging for the fences. He's now asking for a reduction to manslaughter. If the judge agrees, that would mean Erik and Lyle walk out of prison immediately. But first, everyone needs to agree on how to handle a risk assessment report ordered by the governor's office. You'd think that would be straightforward. It is not. The prosecution claims they need more time because only part of the report has been released. The defense hasn't seen the full thing either. The judge, Michael Jesic, hadn't seen it either. And he was clearly done with the nonsense. "I need clarification from the governor's office,” Jesic said in court Thursday. “This is stupid.” Still, prosecutors insisted that the parts they have seen are enough to put the whole thing on pause. They filed a motion to delay so everyone could review what they call a crucial piece of the puzzle: how dangerous the brothers might be if released. According to Deputy DA Habib Balian, if a report exists that evaluates their potential for violence, it has to be considered. On the other side, Geragos went scorched earth. He slammed DA Nathan Hochman for holding a press conference where he referenced the report. Geragos now wants Hochman off the case altogether, saying he's compromised the process. Hochman, for what it's worth, has made it clear he does not support resentencing. So yeah—tensions are high. The governor's office later clarified that the risk assessment wasn't meant to stand alone—it's part of a broader review ahead of a June parole hearing. They also said that both the defense and prosecution already had access to what's been shared. And, they noted, they're happy to send it to the judge if he wants it. In the meantime, the brothers sat quietly, watching the hearing on a video feed from their prison near San Diego. Dressed in blue, emotionless, probably wondering what fresh bureaucratic hell they were now trapped in. This whole thing has been a stop-and-start process. The original resentencing hearing was set for January, but got postponed because of wildfires in LA and a last-minute attempt by prosecutors to pull back on their own request. This latest delay pushes things again, with the next court date now scheduled for May 9. Outside the courtroom, interest in the case hasn't faded. Netflix's “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story” and a follow-up docuseries reignited public fascination. Journalists flooded the courthouse. Reporters elbowed for spots inside. It's the same media frenzy that's followed this case for decades. Inside, things got messy—again. Geragos and Bryan Freedman, an attorney representing Menendez relatives, blasted prosecutors for showing graphic crime scene photos in a prior hearing without warning the family. Freedman called it “harassment.” Balian apologized, but added that Erik and Lyle were the ones who caused the scene in those photos—not him. Another point of contention? The DA's office now controls the victims' services branch of the court. Geragos and Freedman say they've heard crickets from them. No contact. No coordination. Not even a heads-up. It's worth noting that nearly all surviving members of the Menendez family have publicly forgiven the brothers. They want them released. They believe in their rehabilitation. Prosecutors, however, say the brothers have never come clean. They point to lies told at trial—about the abuse, about what really happened that night—and say the Menendez brothers haven't taken full responsibility. Hochman's office has openly said they don't believe the abuse happened at all. So where does this leave everything? On pause. Again. The next hearing's set for May 9, assuming someone can get the right version of the report to the judge and everyone decides to read the same set of pages this time. #MenendezBrothers #ResentencingDrama #TrueCrimePodcast #JusticeSystemChaos Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Roane discusses the pervasive issue of pornography addiction with Ted Shimer, founder of the Freedom Fight. Ted highlights the significant impact of high-speed internet and smartphones on adolescent brains, leading to deeper and broader addictions. A Barna study reveals that 78% of practicing Christians aged 18-70 watch porn, with 90% of younger Christians affected. Ted emphasizes the need for discipleship and equipping rather than just recovery, using biblical principles and brain science to address the roots of addiction. They discuss the importance of emotional awareness, identity in Christ, and community support for lasting freedom.To learn more about the Sex, God, & Chaos team, click the link below: www.sexgodchaos.com Looking for help?

The reality star concluded her message: "I believe in the justice system's ability to evolve, and I am grateful for a society where we can challenge decisions and seek justice. She said: "I think that they never got a fair second trial and I feel like ever since, for me, watching Ryan Murphy's Monsters show it really opened up and showed me so much about abuse. On Thursday, Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon recommended a resentencing for Erik and Lyle Menendez, who have spent nearly 35 years behind bars for killing their parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Throughout history, many prophets have spoken hidden truths using the power of stories. Tales and fables offer so many details of our existence. They also serve to soften the blow of harsh realities. Even Jesus spoke in parables, both liberating and challenging. The system is built to keep us entertained, divided and distracted. The big question is, who's really in charge? The currencies of the powerful are horrific. Weeping may endure for the night, but joy comes in the morning. The truth can be buried so deep. There's talk of a much larger force that isn't human at all. Trading different forms of totalitarianism is too common. Disillusioned people often make bad decisions. But the future is not set and creative thinking strengthens humanity. Here are the tools to save yourself. Will we rise as a people, or fall into a new form of slavery? Remember, true freedom is not given, but taken. We all need to just pray, because God has got this.

Christians struggling with porn use often live in denial. Porn users often minimize, rationalize and even compartmentalize their struggle. They have learned to lie to themselves and others. But a person cannot break free from porn until they admit that they have a problem. Adam is joined by Freedom Fight founder Ted Shimer as he shares how you can break free from Pornography.  If you or a loved one struggles with pornography, check out Freedom Fight a 100% free resource. The Freedom Fight equips men and women to break free from pornography so they can run their race and reach their God given potential in Christ.

Faith, leadership, and unwavering action – the intersection where Christians shape the future of America, one vote, one voice, and one heart at a time. In this episode, host Terri Hasdorff sits down with Dr. Alveda King, a renowned author, Christian evangelist, and esteemed civil rights advocate. As the chair of the America First Policy Institute's Center for the American Dream, Dr. King brings her unique perspective and insights to the intersection of faith and politics, offering a compelling look at the role Christians play in shaping the future of America. In the age of cancel culture and the rise of socialist ideologies, Dr. King reminds us that leadership is not limited to a chosen few; instead, it resides within all of us. Through servant leadership and unity, she argues, individuals can make a profound impact on their communities and beyond. She also delves into the growing threat to religious freedom and traditional values in today's society. Dr. King boldly addresses the dangers of critical race theory and the deceptive allure of socialism, reminding us that it is essential to stand firm in our beliefs and push back against ideologies that aim to replace God with the government. Tune in now and together, let's embrace our calling as servant leaders and work together towards a brighter future for all.
