In this thought-provoking edition of Rob McConnell Interviews, Daniel Friedmann discusses The Genesis One Code, a groundbreaking exploration of hidden structure, language, and meaning within the opening chapter of the Bible. Friedmann presents evidence that Genesis 1 may contain an advanced informational framework—one that bridges theology, mathematics, linguistics, and consciousness. This conversation challenges traditional interpretations of scripture and invites listeners to consider whether the Book of Genesis encodes a deeper understanding of creation, reality, and humanity's place in the universe. A compelling discussion for seekers of biblical mysteries, sacred science, and hidden knowledge.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

This week--It's our "BIG Christmas Show!!" So as you're welcoming family and friends, sipping hot chocolate, egg nog, or something a little more zesty, you can enjoy our trip down memory lane. Frankie and I recall some of our best Christmastime memories, our favorite meals for the big day, and of course, our Top 5 Christmas songs. Merry Christmas!
This week, we head back to 1969, for perhaps the best of our "Last Best Albums!" The Beatles' "Abbey Road." Frankie will tell you the story behind the famous album cover photo (and Paul's "death"); and I'll give you a little tidbit about the back cover. Also, we'll start running down our Top 10 Xmas Songs (from #10-#6 this week)...What do we have cooked up for you this holiday season? Find out this week! Next week, is our "BIG Christmas Show!," so be sure to add that show to your Christmas week plans!
Pastor Eric Friedmann fondly recalls humorous memories of Christmas past and sets the stage for a new mini-series titled 'The Songs of This Season.' He reflects on the unexpected origins and deep meaning behind popular Christmas carols, starting with 'Silent Night.' By delving into the context of Jesus's birth, Friedmann emphasizes that spiritual stillness and true peace are found not in the absence of life's chaos, but in the presence of the Savior. He invites the congregation to seek stillness through their relationship with God, stressing that they are at home with the Heavenly Father solely because of Jesus. Encouraging the community to embrace the essence of the season through worship, Friedmann concludes with a call to recognize and cherish the divine stillness brought by Christ's birth.
Season 15 kicks off this week with the last album by Simon & Garfunkel (at least the first time)...Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel were heading in opposite directions at this point in early 1970; Paul to pursue his solo career, and Art with his budding acting career. "Bridge over Troubled Water" took nearly a year to complete as a result, yet out came some of their best work in this their 5th and final studio album. Next week, Frank and I look at perhaps the best of the last albums--"Abbey Road." And, in just 2 weeks, we'll have our "BIG Christmas Show!!"

Unfortunately, so many of our rockers have met with a tragic ending to their lives, and this week is one of the worst. In our continuing series, "Best Last Albums," it is the final album by Lynyrd Skynyrd, "Street Survivors." Frankie and I will take a closer look at the album, and the details behind that horrible plane crash which occurred just days after the albums' release.
This week-it's our BIG 5th Anniversary Show!! Thanks so much for listening over the past half-decade!! Frankie and I will relive many of our favorite topics, including 1 Hit Wonders, Best Debut Albums, Featured Artists and many more. Next week: our final episode of Season 14, with a look at "Street Survivors"...the last album from Lynyrd Skynyrd, released just days before the tragic plane crash.
This week, our "Best Last Albums" takes us back to the fall of 1968 with "Electric Ladyland" by the Jimi Hendrix Experience! Only 3 studio albums were released before Jimi's untimely death a little more than 2 years later. Next week, join Frankie and me as we celebrate our "Big 5th Anniversary Show!! We've had hundreds of fun and informative topics over the 1/2 decade of Podcasts, and we'll head down memory lane next week. Thanks SO much for you downloads!!
This week, Frankie and I spotlight Billy Joel's final album (with lyrics): "River of Dreams." Billy became disillusioned with the music industry at the time he put together this album in 1993...album cover art by his then wife, Christie Brinkley. Next week, join us as we continue with our "Best Last Albums"...it will be "Electric Ladyland," the 3rd and final album by the Jimi Hendrix Experience. And in just 2 weeks--our "BIG 5th Anniversary Show" will air!!
This week, John Lennon's final album, "Double Fantasy," is in our spotlight. Frank and I discuss the tragic events that began on December 8th, 1980, and for weeks, months, and years afterwards. It's still hard to believe, isn't it? Next week, Billy Joel's last one, with lyrics anyway: "River of Dreams."
Jim Croce's final album, "I Got A Name," is this week's "Best Last Album." Little did anyone at the time this album was released, that it would be Jim's last. From the title cut to "I'll Have to say I Love You in a Song" and "Lover's Cross," Jim great songs and tireless touring would end so tragically in September, 1973. Frank and I will discuss, and play some of those wonderful album tracks. Next week, John Lennon's "Double Fantasy."
Season 14 continues with Episode 8: The final studio album by The Doors--"LA Woman." 1971 signaled the end of the music by Jim Morrison, Robby Krieger, John Densmore and Ray Manzarek. From the title track, to "Riders on the Storm," Frankie and I will run down all the cuts, and give you some insight into the group's producer. Next week, Jim Croce's last album: "I Got a Name."
This week, before Frankie and I begin taking a look at "Best Last Albums," we'll begin the show with a fitting tribute to the late John Lodge of the Moody Blues, who passed away late last week at the age of 82. What great songs he wrote for us, including "Isn't Life Strange," "Ride My See-Saw" and "I'm just a Singer in a Rock 'n Roll Band." Then in our new Feature, "Best Last Albums, this week it's "In Through the Out Door" by Led Zeppelin.

I will show that this notion and the further theoretical observations and generalizations regarding movement are useful in accounting for language impairments. I will describe syntactic impairments of various sources: acquired (following stroke, tumour, tumor resection), developmental, and neurodegenerative (progressive aphasia, Parkinson's Disease, Machado Joseph Ataxia), and show how useful a good syntactic theory is in assessing, describing, and treating these impairments.
Styx is this week's Featured Artist!! Frankie and I (especially me) have been clamoring for their induction, or at least, nomination into the Rock Hall. It won't be this year (Nov 8th in LA), but maybe next year! Next week, we'll take a look at yet another one of our Best Debut Albums--"Dream of the Blue Turtles" by Sting. He stepped out into the solo spotlight with this top album from 1985.
2/4: This file covers Fred Hoyle's academic career and the emergence of major cosmological debate. Hoyle earned his Cambridge PhD in 1939, originally wanting to be a chemist. During WWII, he worked on secret radar projects. Meeting astronomer Walter Baade proved pivotal; Baade proposed that Population 2 stars exploded as supernovae, distributing elements to newer stars. This inspired Hoyle's 1946 seminal paper on stellar nucleosynthesis, explaining how elements from hydrogen to uranium form in stars. Cosmological theories crystallized into competing camps: the Big Bang (from Friedmann and Lemaître's "primeval atom") versus Steady State theory. Einstein had written early steady state concepts but discarded them. Gamow supported the Big Bang, proposing all elements were created in the hot early universe. Early universe age estimates varied wildly between 2-10 billion years, far short of the accepted 13.8 billion years. Flashes of Creation: George Gamow, Fred Hoyle, and the Great Big Bang Debate, by Paul Halpern

This week: at long last...Van Halen!! Find out all about the band, who helped them get started (its' someone you know!), who was their producer early on (also someone you know!), and hear Frankie's thoughts about who he thinks was the better lead singer. Enjoy!!
This week- It's R.E.M!! Frank and I will be discussing what has made this band so popular since the early '80s, as a campus favorite at the Univ. of Georgia. And now, more than 40 years later-their music sustains. Enjoy!!
It's a brand-new season! Frankie and I kick off Season 14 with a look at one of the long-time rockers--U2. The group from Dublin, Ireland has been on the scene since the late-70s, and the 4 members have been together since the start. Next week, another Rock Hall of Famer--REM. Thanks for joining us for Season 14!
This week, we take a break from our usual conversations, with a look back to the year 1975! As Frankie says, this is the year that everybody came back out with great music. So much else happened that year as well, and Frank & I will get into it in this episode. Next week, we'll begin a brand-new season of shows--U2 will be front-and-center as our Featured Artists. Enjoy!
This week, Frank and I wrap up a terrific Season 13, with the Debut Album of Pat Benatar's: "In the Heat of the Night." This one began a better than 4-decade career as a rocker, along with her husband-guitarist Neil Geraldo. Next week, we'll bring back a Classic Conversation from the year 1975; the year Frankie says "They all came out with great rock 'n roll albums!!" In 2 weeks, we'll start Season 14 with U2 as our Featured Artist.
This week, certainly NOT an unlucky episode! Frank and I are featuring a not-to-well-known Debut album, but still a really good one--and one that Frankie wanted to hit, "The Clash." First released in the UK in '77; then two years later here in the US. Next week, we'll conclude Season 13 with a look at Pat Benatar's first album, "In the Heat of the Night," from 1979. Enjoy!
This book tells the story of how, over the past century, dedicated observers and pioneering scientists achieved our current understanding of the universe. It was in antiquity that humankind first attempted to explain the universe often with the help of myths and legends. This book, however, focuses on the time when cosmology finally became a true science. As the reader will learn, this was a slow process, extending over a large part of the 20th century and involving many astronomers, cosmologists and theoretical physicists. The book explains how empirical astronomical data (e.g., Leavitt, Slipher and Hubble) were reconciled with Einstein's general relativity; a challenge which finally led Friedmann, De Sitter and Lemaître, and eventually Einstein himself, to a consistent understanding of the observational results. The reader will realize the extraordinary implications of these achievements and how deeply they changed our vision of the cosmos: From being small, static, immutable and eternal, it became vast and dynamical - originating from (almost) nothing, and yet now, nearly 14 billion years later, undergoing accelerated expansion. But, as always happens, as well as precious knowledge, new mysteries have also been created where previously absolute certainty had reigned. Learn more about your ad choices.

The scale of our climate challenge is staggering: humans have pumped 1.6 trillion tonnes of carbon dioxide into the air and oceans since 1750, and we're adding another 40 billion tonnes every year. Even with dramatic emissions reductions, we're still on track to blow past 1.5 degrees of warming, the Paris Accord target first breached in 2024. Tune in to a conversation with Dr. Julio Friedmann, Chief Scientist at Carbon Direct. This carbon management company partners with Fortune 500 companies such as Microsoft, JPMorgan Chase, and American Express to transform net-zero commitments into science-backed action plans. After a career that began as a researcher at ExxonMobil and included service at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Columbia University's energy policy center, and running advanced energy programs in the Obama administration's Department of Energy, Julio brings unique expertise to the intersection of massive climate challenges and current technological capabilities. As companies work toward 2030 and 2050 carbon goals, the question isn't whether we'll need massive carbon removal—it's whether we can deploy it fast enough and fairly enough to matter. The recent $100 million XPRIZE Carbon Removal awards highlighted the diversity of approaches being pursued, with natural solutions like enhanced rock weathering using basalt and azomite soil, and biochar applications to farmland dominating the winners. But how do these technologies stack up against the hype? Friedmann provides a realistic assessment of where Direct Air Capture, ocean alkalinity enhancement, and other carbon removal approaches stand today. Carbon Direct's team of 70+ scientists changes the conversation with corporate clients about their carbon strategies, providing the scientific firepower to offer hard feedback about what's needed to preserve the markets, supply chains, and revenue streams companies depend on.
