We break down Wicked: For Good, discussing the risks and rewards of splitting the beloved musical in two, whether Act Two can live up to expectations, and how the film handles its darker themes. From there, it's on to Guillermo del Toro's long-awaited Frankenstein — a visually rich, emotionally grounded take on the classic monster that puts empathy and tragedy front and centre. Finally, we hit the dystopian arena with Edgar Wright's The Running Man, asking whether this slick reimagining delivers Wright's trademark energy or feels restrained by the source material. Big adaptations, iconic monsters, and modern takes on classic stories — it's a packed episode of films worth arguing about. #NerdToKnowBasis,#Podcast,#PopCulture,#Wicked,#WickedForGood,#Frankenstein,#GuillermoDelToro,#TheRunningMan,#EdgarWright,#MovieReviews,#FilmPodcast,#SciFi,#Fantasy,#GeekCulture

In this episode, Petia explores why believers sometimes don't feel God emotionally and why this does NOT mean God is distant. She shares encouragement, Scripture, and seven biblical ways we often sense God that have nothing to do with feelings.   Key Points: Feelings are not the measure of God's presence. Exhaustion and motherhood deeply affect emotional sensitivity. God's presence is constant even when our awareness is low. Silence is often God deepening spiritual maturity. Practical steps to reconnect with God gently.   7 Ways We Sense God (Even Without Feelings): A verse becomes alive. Peace that doesn't make sense. Strength you didn't have before. Desire to pray, even weakly. Gentle conviction or redirection. Moments of comfort — music, words, quiet. Perseverance that comes from the Holy Spirit.   Scriptures Included: Psalm 42:5 James 4:8   Call to Action: Share this episode with a friend. Connect with Petia on Instagram @petiakolibova   Thank you for listening — remember, silence is not separation, and God is closer than your breath.

Is the ultimate parenting flex actually… no gifts at all? Because according to The Cut, Millennial parents now fall into two dramatic camps:Camp Maximalist: “Here’s every toy that's ever been produced.”Camp Minimalist: “Your present is… presence.” Meanwhile, gentle parenting has officially been cancelled. After a viral post dragged the whole “boundary-less vibes only” approach, we’re gathered here today to mount a defence before it’s declared emotionally supportive manslaughter. And in other critical news, the internet is deep into an investigation of the gossip going on about the Millennial mum group — Ashley Tisdale, Mandy Moore, and Hilary Duff — basically the Avengers of wholesome parenting. What are they hiding? PTA secrets? Matching snack schedules? We will, of course, be looking into it with the seriousness it deserves… which is none. Our Recommendations:

Today's guest is John Richardson Jr., a long time advocate for metabolic approaches to cancer prevention and wellness. John has spent decades researching nutritional compounds, historical case studies, and global health patterns that suggest many cancers may be influenced by diet, environment, and enzyme biology rather than being purely random or inevitable. His perspective challenges conventional thinking, but he lays it out with clarity, real world examples, and practical steps anyone can begin exploring. Our conversation centers on the idea that certain foods and enzymes may play a role in interrupting abnormal cell growth. We discuss cultures with remarkably low cancer rates, what they eat, and how their lifestyle habits compare to the modern Western diet. John also breaks down the biochemistry in plain language and explains why amygdalin rich foods, enzyme support, fasting, and metabolic awareness matter in his framework. Whether you fully agree with his conclusions or simply want a broader understanding of metabolic health, this episode will make you think. Key Takeaways: Many traditional cultures with low cancer rates share common habits: nutrient dense plant foods, clean environments, social connection, and foods containing natural amygdalin. Amygdalin rich foods interact with enzymes differently in healthy versus abnormal cells, which is part of the metabolic argument for prevention. Reducing refined sugar and processed foods is one of the simplest ways to support healthier metabolic function. Gentle cooking methods, improved oxygenation, and strategic fasting may help shift internal conditions in ways that support immune resilience. Fears around fruit seeds and amygdalin often come from headlines rather than nuanced biochemistry. Individual tolerance still matters, which is why medical guidance is important. Controversy exists because large scale randomized trials have not been done, and financial incentives often shape research priorities. Practitioners who use metabolic protocols typically combine dietary changes, enzyme support, fasting, and complementary therapies rather than relying on a single compound. Who Should Tune In: This episode is for anyone who wants a wider lens on health, especially those curious about the relationship between food, metabolism, and long term wellness. If you're exploring preventive strategies, wanting to understand alternative perspectives, or simply trying to make more informed choices about how you fuel your body, this conversation will give you a clearer framework and plenty to think about. It's not about fear or quick fixes. It's about approaching your health with curiosity, awareness, and a willingness to challenge old assumptions. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
