Israel's illegal occupations in the Palestinian West Bank are under intense scrutiny, after a 20-year-old US citizen was brutally beaten to death by settlers while visiting relatives. Violence has surged since October 7th, with Netanyahu's government expanding its occupation ever since - and the UN estimates that 1,000 Palestinians have been killed. Most countries agree that settlements are illegal - but many religious Israelis believe they have a divine right to be there. Piers Morgan speaks to ‘Godmother' of the Israeli settler movement Daniella Weiss before discussing all the above and more with author and activist Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, The Young Turks' Cenk Uygur and Sunday Times columnist and author Matthew Syed.

Griselda Blanco'nun hayatta tek bir hayali vardı: Daha fazla güç ve para kazanmak. Bu uğurda her şeyi yapmaya hazırdı ve nitekim öyle de oldu. Miami'de inşa ettiği suç imparatorluğu kaos, kan ve cinayetler üzerine yükseliyor, tamamen vicdanını kaybetmiş olan Griselda her önüne çıkanı kim olduğunu bakmaksızın ortadan kaldırıyordu. Sonunda Godmother olmayı başarmış, hayalindeki gibi en tepeye oturmuştu. Fakat unuttuğu şey; çıkılan her zirvenin bir de inişi olduğuydu.

When Lori Lyons became a stepmom, she knew exactly what she didn't want: the tension, jealousy, and divided loyalty she had grown up with as a child of divorce. Instead, she envisioned something radical for the time—a family that included everyone, even her husband's ex-wife. In this heart-opening episode of A Fresh Story, Lori invites us into her Louisiana home and into a decades-long story of blended family done beautifully right. A Hall of Fame sports writer, adoptive mom, caretaker, and storyteller, Lori's life is a patchwork of intentional relationships, deep empathy, and the kind of resilience you can only earn the hard way.From taking off her engagement ring before a pickup at her now-stepkids' house to asking her husband's ex-wife to be her adopted daughter's godmother, Lori's story is a masterclass in humility, generosity, and healing generational hurt. She shares the tender details—how Cheryl became “Nanny,” how they tag-team holidays and emergencies, and how they grieved, celebrated, and raised children together as a team. Her voice is strong and steady, grounded in years of lived wisdom, but it's the softness underneath—the mother who wanted her daughter to feel included, the woman who chose peace over pride—that stays with you.This is more than a story about co-parenting—it's a story about what becomes possible when we abandon old rules about exes, stepfamilies, and women's roles, and build new families from the heart. Lori reminds us that the people who show up for us—who wash dishes in our kitchens after the Christmas parade, who split the mother-of-the-groom dance without blinking—those are our people. This episode will make you cry, laugh, and maybe even believe that a peaceful, joyful blended family isn't just possible—it's worth fighting for.

(28:20) LtCol Dan (email) - If I have my niece be the Godmother, and my brother be a witness, it’s not ideal but I believe I’m still following the Church's guidelines on Godparents. If he comes back to the Catholic Church, does he then become the Godfather retroactively? As a witness, does he make the same verbal commitment that a Godparent makes? (37:08) Bob (email) - If Angels are pure spirit with no bodies, how are they doing hard manual labor on farms and plowing fields?

Success isn't grades, money, or status. It's fulfillment, joy, and kindness that come together to allow you to live your best life. - Colleen Esposito Welcome back to part 2 of my interview with my daughter, Colleen Esposito, co-author of Nelson's Garden and our follow-up children's book, Nelson's Garden & the Free Little Flower Stand. It's been a joy to ask my daughter the same kinds of questions I ask every woman who is a guest on the show and to hear her wise, thoughtful, and sometimes sassy answers. After all, Colleen is the “Queen of Sass”, a nickname given to her decades ago by her Godmother, who recognized her chutzpah early on. Colleen is the kind of person who figures out how to make the best of any situation, evidenced by her determination to become the family cook at 10 when she made her first Thanksgiving meal. In this interview, we extend our gratitude to the village that raised Colleen and her brother, Christopher, as well as her grandfather, fondly known as “Bapa,” who stepped in to take care of them every day after school. In this interview, Colleen shares what happened to her at 20 when she fell asleep at the wheel and almost died. “I had a moment of being unsure if I was dead or alive, or in this weird in-between place where I could see myself, I could see the car, but I was away from it, watching it all.” From stories about what it was like to sleep on the newsroom floor when I started my career in major market radio, to finding true love and becoming the mother of two precious daughters herself, this interview is a tribute to the enduring power of the mother-daughter connection. #daughter #family #childrensbookauthor #gardening

With special guest: Monica McInerney… in conversation with Bill Kable When we speak with Monica McInerney she still sounds like she has lived all her life in South Australia. In fact she has become a local in Ireland over the last twenty plus years and knows very well the country around Dublin which is a big part of her new book The Godmothers. The book could be used to promote the Irish countryside with its beautiful scenery and warm welcoming pubs. We also visit England and Scotland which is a welcome adventure when travel has become so restricted for all of us. But the main appeal of this story is that we learn about families, relationships and the often unforeseen consequences of our actions. In particular we are let in on some family secrets and different ways they are treated. Some secrets are bound to go to the grave while others can hardly be called secret since everyone in the family knows them. Monica delves into the personalities of her characters and finds that everyone has a story, everyone has flaws and some are not very nice people. Along the way we get to question our own ethics. And there are surprises in store right to the last page. Podcast (mp3)

Episode Notes On this week's episode of Orange Juice Optional: Suzanne and Michelle talk about an event that Suzanne recently “hosted” at her home. As Michelle compliments Suzanne's generosity in helping somebody's dreams come true, Suzanne hijacks the sentiment with what she shares as her true motivation. Michelle reminds her that in life both things can be true. What do you think? Then before this episode concludes, Suzanne shares this week's ‘Something to Sip on'. OJO's 'Something to Sip on' is always a featured quote intended to inspire reflection and continued contemplation. Until next week everyone stay authentic to who you are! Cheers!!

Lesley appeared on Debate Night last week. We look back at this, the issues that were raised by the audience, and the replies of the panel.Here's the link to Lesley's justified rant over the energy rip off.https://www.facebook.com/reel/984639903833195Kneecap have clarified their position and apologised to the families of David Amess and Jo Cox after the accusations made over statements made during gigs. John Swinney has called for the group to be removed from the TRNSMT line-up, echoing those made by Kemi Badenoch and others over Glastonbury. Is this furore simply, as Kneecap have claimed, a distraction from the real issue of Israel's actions in Gaza?Meanwhile Louis Theroux has made a follow up documentary on the Israeli " settler" movement. We look at Daniella Weiss, the so called "Godmother" of the movement her actions ,the Zionist nationalist tradition she comes from, and the influence she has on the Israeli government.We turn our attentions to three sets of elections. The result of the Canadian General Election, the English local elections, and the Runcorn and Helsby by election. There has been a landmark decision at appeal giving Poet's Neuk, a local community group, the right to buy privately owned land under a compulsory purchase order. It's taken nine years after the passing of the 2016 Land Reform Act for this to happen for the first time. Will this set a precedent?All of this plus gig reviews and TV recommendations. ★ Support this podcast ★
Janine Benyus, the world-renowned “Godmother of Biomimicry,” and her colleagues at Biomimicry 3.8 have been demonstrating what it takes to design human settlements—cities, village, homes, and businesses—that create the same ecological gifts as the wildland next door. We also feature excerpted discussions from advocates like Anne LaForti and Dayna Baumeister, both from Biomimicry 3.8. Learn how biomimicry isn't just about emulating nature's aesthetics but understanding its functional mechanisms for survival and thriving. Unpack the principles of biomimicry, its implications for industries, and the ethical considerations of borrowing from nature's playbook.

Janine Beynus's seminal book: Biomimicry: Innovation Inspired by Nature defines biomimicry as a "new science that studies nature's models and then imitates or draws inspiration from these designs and processes to solve human problems." Designing, creating, and innovating in a generous and abundant vs extractive way that regenerates and reciprocates life is a fundamental aim of biomimicry.

Patrick discusses insights about faith, focusing on miraculous events in Acts chapter 8 and addressing questions on Catholic practices like choosing sponsors at Confirmation. He shares a compelling story of angels assisting St. Isidore and highlights the importance of standing firm in one's faith at work. Plus, Patrick emphasizes how Relevant Radio serves as a unifying resource for Catholics. Isidore (email) - What does Luke mean when he says the spirit of the Lord snatched Philip away. Did Philip just disappear into thin air? (0:54) Zach (email) – Confirmation and sponsor question (9:24) Sheila (email) – Why did Adam and Eve sin? (13:26) Audio: Sen. Marco Rubio responds to a question about revoking Visas. (25:00) Mary - I have been asked to leave the Adoration Chapel because the space is needed for a meeting. (28:20) LtCol Dan (email) - If I have my niece be the Godmother, and my brother be a witness, it’s not ideal but I believe I’m still following the Church's guidelines on Godparents. If he comes back to the Catholic Church, does he then become the Godfather retroactively? As a witness, does he make the same verbal commitment that a Godparent makes? (37:08) Bob (email) - If Angels are pure spirit with no bodies, how are they doing hard manual labor on farms and plowing fields?

At seven this week's guest, Rikki West, begged a mysterious God for help, praying that her drunk father won't harm their family and that he won't be sent to hell. But when nothing seems to happen, she worried: Is anyone up there really listening? This question triggered a lifelong search for the great, loving being she imagines her prayers might reach. Delving into Catholicism, psychedelics, transcendental meditation, yoga, AA and Buddhist chanting, she explores every available path. She studies genetic science at UC Berkeley and humanities at San Francisco State, combing through the knowledge they offer for answers to the big questions.On this guest episode I was delighted to interview the wonderful Rikki West. She was kind enough to send me a copy of her book, The Empty Bowl, and it was so smoothly and beautifully written I gobbled it up in days! Not only is Rikki a phenomenally talented writer she also has incredible life story. I try not to spoil it and let Rikki share her tale on the show of taking acid in 1960's Berkeley, having dinner at Roman Polanski's house, exploring the line between science & spirituality, surviving a violent rape that brought her face to face with the guilt and denial that shames women into silence, and fueled her addiction, how she has stayed sober for decades, and how losing everything ultimately led to a joyous late-life renaissance. Rikki West is the author of The Empty Bowl: Pursuing Truth in a Messy World, a former spiritual seeker, and a UC Berkeley–trained scientist. She spent decades trying to reconcile scientific explanations of existence with her ordinary, real-life awareness. One adventure at a time, she found her way to a peace and beauty that changed all the questions. Her book Rootlines, a memoir of family healing, was published by She Writes Press in 2020. Mother of Noli and Godmother of Morgan, Rikki loves being outside in the alpine desert of northern New Mexico, where she lives with her wife Jill and that old Yamaha.Learn More About Rikki Here:https://www.rikkiwest.com/
