The return of "What About?" Wednesdays! Text us your questions for apologist and pastor Robby Lashua!As we approach the month of May, a momentous shift is about to take place for students moving from high school and towards college and career. Students will graduate from high school and, for many, from the direct oversight of Dad and Mom on a daily basis as they head to university, the military, trade school, or a job.So, how can we know that Christian high school students will remain engaged within the spiritual disciplines that will keep them walking a healthy course in pursuit of Christ.We can't.But, what we can do is work to be certain that students are involved, and truly invested, in a youth ministry -- from middle school, high school, and college -- that will incite a true love of discipleship in their lives.Today, we spend time talking with two student ministries pastors from Palmcroft Church -- George Brown, the pastor of College and Assimilation, and Jacob Van Gysel, the pastor of High School ministry -- as they discuss moving young people away from entertainment in youth ministry and towards genuine, heartfelt engagement.The Rooted article that serves as the jumping off point for our conversation, "Don't Entertain Teenagers, Disciple Them", can be found here.To learn about Palmcroft Church, please follow this link.To learn specifically about Palmcroft High School Ministry, click here.To find out about Palmcroft College Ministry, please click on this link.

This week, two old beer-scented ink-slingers chop it up as Jordan St. John returns and joins Ben to reflect on his days as a nationally-syndicated beer columnist, editor of the beer magazine The Growler, and beer instructor at George Brown. They dig into just how incestuous big beer in Canada is, BJCP certification for the dreaded Ontario Pale Ale, and why no one cares about anything any more. Plus: Jordan mentions upstart Bickford Brewing so many times it seems like he might be on the payroll.
This week, Joanne welcomes horticulturist Stephen Biggs back to the podcast to talk about his latest project, the newly expanded Canada Gardener's Journal. About Steven Steven was recognized by Garden Making magazine as one of the "green gang" making a difference in Canadian horticulture. His home-garden experiments span driveway straw-bale gardens, a rooftop kitchen garden, fruit plantings, and an edible-themed front yard. He's a horticulturist, award-winning broadcaster and author, and former horticulture instructor with George Brown and Durham Colleges in Ontario, Canada. His other books include Grow Olives Where You Think You Can't, Grow Lemons Where You Think You Can't, Growing Figs in Cold Climates, Grow Figs Where You Think You Can't, and No-Guff Gardening, available at foodgardenlife.com. Tune in to learn more about Canada Gardener's Journal. Origins of the Gardener's Journal Started 34 years ago by Margaret Bennett Alder Inspired by her father's paper booklets he used to manage tasks and meds Margaret used the format to track garden tasks, neat plant sources, and observations First year: ~50 copies printed; grew to 500 the next year By the 25th edition (2017), and her retirement at age 90, over 18,000 copies sold Margaret passed away at 98; the journal is part of her gardening legacy Evolution of the Journal Originally the Toronto Gardener's Journal, then the Toronto & Golden Horseshoe Gardener's Journal Taken over by Helen and Sarah Battersby (TorontoGardens.com), who expanded its geographic scope and won awards Now passed to Stephen, who has turned it into Canada's Gardener's Journal What's New in Canada's Gardener's Journal Now Canada-wide and bilingual, with information relevant across the country Includes average first and last frost dates using the most recent Environment Canada data Expanded sources list featuring Canadian suppliers that ship across the country (seeds, nursery stock, etc.) Ongoing plan to update sources as new nurseries and seed companies are suggested From Toronto-specific to Seasonal Tasks Old version: weekly tasks tied to the Toronto area and similar zones New version: season-based task lists (spring, summer, fall, winter) Includes outdoor tasks and indoor prep (seed starting, planning, etc.) Better suited to different climates and zones across Canada (and similar U.S. regions) Perpetual Calendar Format Previously: a dated, year-specific planner (e.g., 2024, 2025) with fixed calendar weeks Now: a perpetual, undated week-by-week layout Gardeners can start using it at any point in the year Can stretch use over more than one year if desired Focuses on periods of active gardening rather than wasting pages in off-months Practical, Hands-On Focus Designed by a gardener for gardeners—light on theory, heavy on practical prompts Space for gardeners to record: What they planted and when Weather patterns and unusual seasons Successes, failures, and plant sources Acts as both a planner and a historical record for future decision-making Why Garden Journaling Matters Memory is unreliable: gardeners quickly forget how wet/cool or hot/dry a season actually was Notes and photos together help explain: Why certain plants thrived or struggled How changing climate and shifting zones affect timing and plant choices Useful for: Answering client questions (for designers like Joanne) Tracking long-term trends in weather and performance Diagnosing issues (e.g., why tomatoes didn't ripen as usual) Climate Change & Updated Data Growing zones and frost patterns are shifting with climate change The journal uses the latest Environment Canada frost-date data Stephen expects ongoing updates in future editions as data and climate continue to change Honouring Founder Margaret Bennett Alder Margaret was passionate about a plant-based diet, which she linked to her longevity The journal has long included pages of her favourite plant-based resources Stephen has expanded this section with new Canadian sources in her honour Availability & Price Price: $19.95 – positioned as an affordable gift or stocking stuffer Available via foodgardenlife.com under the books section Some specialty garden retailers carry it; retailers are listed on the website Stephen encourages buyers (especially Christmas shoppers) to email him via the site if they're unsure about shipping timelines Although now truly Canada-wide, gardeners in northern U.S. border states with similar zones may also find it very useful Check out Stephen's books and Canada's Gardener's Journal on foodgardenlife.com.

In our third episode we welcome support staff president for the Ontario Public Service Employees Union Local 418 at St.Lawrence College. Amanda Shaw, second vice president of OPSEU Local 415 at Algonquin College, Martin Lee and from George Brown College, member of OPSEU's part-time and sessional divisional executive, Ben McCarthy. We discuss the mass layoffs and program and campus closures across Ontario's 24 publicly funded colleges, impacts on college workers, students, and wider communities, what this means for the future of public post-secondary education and how what has been publicized as a "crisis" is really a scandal of the deliberate dismantling of the public college system by the Government of Ontario. According to Lee: “We've been using the word 'crisis' a lot, right? And, you know, it's got all the symptoms of being a crisis ... But it's not a crisis, it's a scandal. What we're actually looking at is a scandal. A crisis is something that happens. A rainfall, you know, it's an act of God. No, no, this is deliberate and intentional. And the more you see it, the more it becomes clear that this is an active process by the Doug Ford government.” Reflecting on the situation facing college workers and communities, Shaw says: “We're seeing a hemorrhaging of our members from the system. It's about job security. It's about protecting the jobs in the communities ... it's about keeping a viable educational option in the communities and making sure that we're able to meet industry need ... If we don't have colleges that exist in those smaller communities, then what's to be said of education?” On the changing nature of union organizing, McCarthy says: “Part of this neoliberal trend that emphasizes the bottom line also emphasizes an individualism that does not serve worker rights, that does not serve worker power…If disaster capitalism continues to profit off of these moments of unrest, of uncertainty to their profit..that's also a possibility for us, that is organized labour..To step into that uncertainty, and by collectivizing our fight, raising the water in the harbour for everybody.” Read OPSEU's report, Dismantling Public Futures: Diverting Training Money from Ontario Colleges Through Ford's Skills Development Fund Endangers the Provincial Economy And Ben McCarthy's article in The Grind, The Manufactured Crisis in Ontario Colleges About today's guests: With 25 years of experience in the college system, Amanda Shaw currently works for St. Lawrence College on the Cornwall campus as an academic planning assistant. She is currently serving as support staff local president for OPSEU/SEFPO Local 418, and is on her third term. Ben McCarthy is a labour organizer, artist, and teacher working in Toronto, Canada. He is a member of the divisional executive representing precarious faculty with OPSEU. He teaches courses in labour history, immigration, and cultural production at George Brown college. His artwork interrogates the technological and economic conditions that produce the listening subject. Dr Martin Lee is the second vice-president of OPSEU Local 415 at Algonquin College. In his teaching role, Martin is a professor of biochemistry, a former academic coordinator, and active researcher in the field of applied physical biochemistry. In OPSEU at a provincial level, he was on the Workload Monitoring Group (WMG), resulting in the world's largest cohesive study of faculty workload. This then led to his involvement in the Ontario College Academic Bargaining team for 2024 (and ongoing). His union work focuses on building the data which drives the local and the division and tries to bring an equity lens to the voice of the membership, often supporting these arguments with the data needed to formulate novel approaches. He has presented the topic of what he calls ‘data-weaving': the process of taking any and all sets of information that a local has at hand, and using it to better understand large union sets, including those with multiple sites, multiple job classifications, or subgroups.

George Brown is a stand-up comic from the Fort Worth, Texas area and one of the youngest voices in the local scene. But don't let his age fool you into thinking he's a novelty act, George is putting in the work and building real momentum. With the age gap between us being wider than George's own age, it was refreshing to gain insight from someone both new to our comedy world and in a completely different stage of life and career. Before heading to Los Angeles to pursue both school and stand-up, he stopped by the studio for a great conversation about comedy, growth, and the unknown of what's next.

After talking last week about his government's achievements in the social sphere, this episode looks at the difficulties Wilson faced in economics and foreign affairs.One way Wilson explored to address economic problems was to make a second application for Britain's entry to the Common market, then called the European Economic Community and now the European Union. However, like Macmillan before him, he ran into the immovable obstacle of de Gaulle, despite believing like Trump that he could overcome opposition by personal conversation with political leaders.He had the same disappointment in personal negotiations twice more. Once waswith the Rhodesian Prime Minister, Ian Smith, the second in his offer to mediate over the Vietnam War between US President Johnson and the Soviet Premier Kosygin.He did have some success, though it attracted him more ridicule than admiration, in the military intervention he authorised on the tiny Caribbean island of Anguilla and which came to be mocked as ‘the Bay of Piglets'.On the domestic front he'd long balanced the leadership ambitions of Jim Callaghan against those of George Brown. After Brown's departure, he did the same with Callaghan and Roy Jenkins. His hold on office came under threat as his public credibility sank. The threat intensified following the controversy over the proposals to control union activity through the courts, outlined in the paper ‘In Place of Strife'. Surprisingly advanced by a leftwinger, Barbara Castle, and backed by Wilson, it seemed to fly in the face of the rationale of Labour's very existence, founded as it had been to defend the unions.Eventually the proposals were dropped. Then with better economic news Labour began to climb in the polls. Encouraged, Wilson called a general election in June 1970. But it turned out that any optimism generated by the opinion pollsters was illusory.Ted Heath's Conservatives won the election and formed a new government.Incidentally, the German translation of the podcast has now moved past the Tudors and is now dealing with the Stuarts.

Well, I didn't see this one coming... In this deeply personal episode, I share the whole story behind my recent academic appeal to George Brown College after being declined admission to the S305 Honours Bachelor of Science in Dental Hygiene Degree Completion program in October 2024. The original reasoning was that 21-year-old Irene went to the "wrong" school 17 years ago. One that didn't prepare 39-year-old Irene for the academic journey of an online degree completion program. This episode covers every step of the journey, from the initial application process to receiving the decision and ultimately crafting my formal appeal. I also read the full appeal letter and reflected on what it means to advocate for yourself, especially in an academic setting. Whether you're a dental professional considering a degree completion program or someone who's ever felt the weight of rejection and the courage it takes to respond, this episode is for you. Let's discuss the complexities of higher education, professional growth, and the sometimes nonlinear paths we must take. What you'll hear in this episode: Why I applied to the S305 Bachelor's program The Initial reasons why I was declined and the reasoning The challenges and emotions that followed A full reading of my written appeal Unfortunately, a pathway doesn't exist; worse, one needs to be planned. Other institutions in Canada have the same program without the limitations of where you went to school to achieve the same license by the same accreditation board. I have thoughts about this and will post a part 2 with them soon. If you made it all the way down here, hit a like and share a comment.

In episode eight, we return to the George Brown College Labour Fair and a discussion with Ontario Federation of Labour president Laura Walton and chief steward and second vice president of OPSEU/SEFPO Local 556 Jeff Brown. We discuss the multiple issues facing the labour movement, union priorities and, in this age of polycrisis, what exactly we are working for. Speaking to the upcoming federal elections, Walton says: “I think we all can agree it's not going to be an NDP federal government. It's either gonna be Liberals or Conservatives. And I call them cancer and chemo; one's gonna kill you, the other one's gonna make you sick. We're going to be under, in Ontario, two governments that are not worker friendly, both federally and provincially. And it's going to be incumbent on workers to really embrace organizing principles … Now's not the time to be quiet. Now's the time that we're going to have to join our voices together to really push back." Reflecting on the how the trade war may impact already underfunded Ontario colleges, Brown says: “The colleges extend into so many fields in our province. Obviously healthcare, nursing community workers, but also things like all the skilled trades, forestry, aviation. I mean, these are the workers in communities that are the backbone of our economy … and the concern that being this underfunded, now with this trade war … the provincial government will use this as an excuse to further starve the system.” About today's guests: Laura Walton is the president of the Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL) Canada's largest provincial labour federation. Walton served as president of the Canadian Union of Public Employees' Ontario School Boards Council of Unions (OSBCU) starting in 2019. She also served on the CUPE Ontario Executive Board. With a firm belief in the equalizing power of inclusive public education, Walton led her 55,000 coworkers across Ontario to withdraw their labour for two days in November 2022 in protest of the Ford government using the notwithstanding clause to ram through legislation that imposed a contract on CUPE education workers. Previously she served as president of CUPE Local 1022 which represents the education workers of Hastings and Prince Edward County District School Board. Dr. Jeff Brown is an experienced educator, researcher, and labour activist. He is a full-time professor in the Liberal Arts and Sciences department at George Brown College in Toronto and Chief Steward/2nd Vice-President of OPSEU Local 556, representing unionized faculty at George Brown. He is also a member of the Ontario College Faculty Divisional Executive.

Cape Governor Harry Smith had made his escape from Fort Cox to King Williams' Town, and was now hoping for help in the form of 3000 Zulu warriors. The British had mucked things up on the frontier, and most of their old allies the Khoekhoe of the Kat River Settlement had decided to rise up, along with the amaXhosa. The Boers were also not in any mood to send help, in fact, the destabilisation was in their favour, it drew English troops away from the transOrangia Region. Mlanjeni the prophet had told the Xhosa that this was the time to drive the English into the sea - and Maqoma the amaRharhabe chief of the amaNhlambe was all to ready to do just that. It was new Year, 1851. In a few days, the Taiping Rebellion - or Civil War as some call it - would begin in China. And like the uprising in the Cape, a man who claimed super powers was behind this war in Asia. Hong Xiuquan was an ethnic Hakka man who claimed to be related to Jesus Christ and was trying to convert the local Han people to his syncretic version of Christianity. Xiuquan was trying to overthrow the Qing dynasty and the Taiping rebels were hell bent on should I say, heaven bent on upending the entire country's social order. Eventually the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom based in Nanjing managed to seize a significant portion of southern China. It was to become the bloodiest war of the 19th Century, lasting 14 years. Back on the eastern Cape frontier, the settlers were facing the amaXhosa rage and fury, frustration that had built up over generations burst into the 8th Frontier War. Maqoma had warned the errant missionary George Brown that a war was coming of cruelty never seen before in southern AFrica. Some called it the first war of colour, a general war of the races. The Kat River people rebelled, some Khoekhoe soldiers rebelled, some of the famous Cape Mounted Rifles men mutinied, the amaThembu people under Maphasa, so important to Xhosa tradition, joined the Xhosa. amaNhlambe chief Siyolo, the best soldier amongst the amaXhosa, had cut off the road between King WilliamsTown and Grahamstown. And yet, in this frontier war it wasn't just black versus white - oh no. As you'll hear, Black South Africans fought for the British, and there were incidents of British soldiers who mutinied and joined the amaXhosa. amaNgqika men upset at how they'd been treated by their own countrymen worked for the colonists in this war, not the mention the amaMfengu people who the amaXhosa regarded as illegal immigrants on their land - there was no love lost between these two either. To merely describe this war as blacks versus whites is to commit historical incongruity. Sandile met with Maqoma in the first days of 1851 in order to work out a series of offensive moves against the British. Hermanus Matroos, who you met last episode was leading a powerful battalion sized group of amaXhosa and Khoesan fighters. Willem Uithaalder, former Cape Mounted Rifles cavalryman, was also fighting the British — his knowledge about how to go about focusing attacks was key.
On Friday, August 16th, Phoenix Bible lead pastor Tim Birdwell kicked off the monthly Big Boys on Campus prayer breakfast by breaking down the Northwest Christian annual spiritual emphasis theme verse, John 8:12: "Again, Jesus spoke to them, saying, 'I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.'"The BBOC devotion itself was, as per Tim's inimitable and inspiring norm, amazing. But, there were people in the room that morning that new, for Tim and his family, following Christ's plan and persisting in a path illuminated by light, has not been easy. So, following BBOC, G and Geoff sit with Tim, as well as George Brown (Phoenix Bible's Director of College and Connections and Geoff's son/NCS alumni, Class of 2016) and work through the special significance of John 8:12 for Tim.For more information regarding Phoenix Bible Church, please follow this link.To learn more about Tim Birdwell, please click here.To get to know George Brown, follow this link.

Episode 180 it is then so let's get cracking. Or crackling, which was the atmosphere in late 1850 as Xhosaland and British Kaffraria was seized by the exploits of prophet Mlanjeni. He'd combined world views, his messianic emergence shook the land as far away as Cape Town. AS a sickly young man from near King Williams Town, he'd disappeared to work in the Cape Colony and returned in 1850 claiming to have been living under the sea. Not quite Sponge Bob because unlike that loveable kids character, Mlanjeni said it was during his stint underwater that God spoke to him. You'll remember how I explained that Mlanjeni took to sitting in pools in nearby rivers and streams, the water lapping against his face as he sat deep in thought. At first he seemed to be in sync with the missionaries and the Governor Harry Smith, saying the amaXhosa should abandon witchcraft, avoid raiding settler cattle and so on. However his message morphed as I explained, and very soon he was exorting his numerous adherents to stop burning the wood of gum trees — an invasive species — he believed the exotic tree symbolised white influence. Word spread, and some began saying that Mlanjeni had miraculous powers, he could light his pipe from the sun, he wore his face on one cheek so he could spot witches and paralyse them. When the missionaries heard that he was also saying that he could heal the sick, give sight to the blind, to make the mute speak and the lame walk. He refused to accept gifts, and the chiefs and commoners streamed to his home. Then the British tried to arrest him and he disappeared, thus growing more power in the eyes of his adherents. We need to focus on these religious matters, so a quick return to the men in black. The missionaries were in a spot. Robert Niven of the United Presbyterian Church was holding forth in Keiskamma hoekDown the road was a man who you could say was taking his position as missionary into the missionary position. George Brown lived on the plains below the Amatolas, not far from the Thyumi valley, arriving in early 1849. At first people noted how he had a kind and manly appearance. But very soon, however, the manly appearance took on a reverential lust — a scandalous man as you'll hear. But first, he seduced the young Janet Chalmers, William Chalmers daughter, and John Forbes Cumming hated him so much for this act, that the two men spoke only through letters. Brown was forced to marry Janet Chalmers in August 1850, five months pregnant.Harry Smith by now was on the frontier, and Sandile's mother Sutu who was Ngqika's widow, went to the Thyumi mission station on 9th December to speak with him. She asked why the English wanted another war. Smith said that the chiefs were not paying fines and she warned “You have taken away all my power, you take away the power of the chiefs, and then you find fault with us for not keeping the people in order…” Christmas Eve was the date selecte by Harry Smith as the day his intimidatory force as Noel Mostert Called it, up the Boma Pass into the Amatola mountains. It was exactly sixteen years to the day of the outbreak of the Frontier War of 1834.
