Are We In Satan's Little Season Right Now? (Revelation 20)Josh Peck talks about the theory that states we are in Satan's little season from Revelation 20 and if it's valid.To get the audio-only podcast version of full videos and Josh Peck's blog, which includes original articles, show notes, and more, subscribe to Josh's Substack at http://joshpeck.substack.comIt is with a heavy heart that I (Nathan's father) inform you that Nathan went home to be with the Lord on Monday, Sept. 22nd, 2025. He fought an extremely rare form of cancer bravely, but in the end, his heart couldn't keep up the fight anymore. He went fast with no prolonged suffering. We want to thank all of you who have kept him in prayer. Please know that those prayers were not in vain. Our son lives with Jesus now. We are now updating this campaign to reflect our financial need for his remaining hospital bills, funeral expenses, and housing for our family. As most men, I do not enjoy asking for help. However, as most fathers and husbands can relate to, there isn't anything I won't do for my family. In light of that, I wanted to first ask all of you to pray for us. Also, because of the overwhelming expenses that inevitably come from all these things happening at the same time, if you feel led to help us financially, there's a couple different ways you can do that:GiveSendGo: http://www.GiveSendGo.com/NathanTheBravePayPal: http://PayPal.me/JoshPeckDisclosureOr send in your donation to:P.O.

Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! In this week's episode we explore two very real technologies which are just now getting off the ground and promise to completely change not just how we think about life and death itself, but what it means to be human. In the free side of the show we discuss what happens when we turn our dead grandma into a digital avatar we can keep on our phone forever and how this technology will be used to sabotage phone scammers. In the second half of the show we discuss the reality of night-vision eyes, breathing under water, re-growing limbs and Neurolink implants.

Recorded live at Open Banking Expo Canada in Toronto, Eyal is joined by Saba Shariff, Chief Strategy, Product & Innovation Officer at Symcor, a leading infrastructure provider to the largest Canadian banks. The road to open banking in Canada has been long and difficult. After many years of deliberation and delay, they finally passed their first open banking regulation in 2024, known as the Consumer-Driven Banking Act. Since then, progress has been stalled by political turmoil. However, with a new prime minister now in place and a renewed focus on nation building, Canada's 2025 budget announcement aims to take their open banking efforts to the next level. Eyal and Saba discuss the journey of open banking in Canada so far, the approach taken in the Consumer-Driven banking regulation, and what the new budget announcement portends for the near future.Specifically they discuss:A history of open banking in CanadaThe Consumer-Driven Banking ActWhat makes Canada's approach uniqueThe advantages of being lateBig updates from the 2025 budget
