Pastor Troy Brewer and Ben Brewer, from OpenDoor Church in Dallas, Texas, join Tony to pull back the curtain on a ministry that doesn't just preach freedom, it hunts it down. From funding and executing rescues to stepping into nations where trafficking networks operate in plain sight, they share stories of walking straight into danger to bring people out. Their travels abroad read like something out of a thriller, filled with sudden spiritual confrontations, close calls, and moments where survival hinged on obedience and prayer. Yet behind the intensity is a relentless conviction that Jesus still sets captives free in real time. This episode is a gripping look at faith in action, where the fight against human trafficking is personal, costly, and anything but theoretical.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

The crew adds humor with tales of strip club adventures and the role of food culture in shaping Atlanta’s social scene [07:26], which leads into a spirited debate about Atlanta’s evolving cultural identity and its influence on music, media, and migration trends [13:04]. The conversation deepens with an analysis of the WNBA’s labor negotiations and ongoing pay disparities, highlighting the broader conversation about gender equity in professional sports [20:15], followed by a sobering discussion about the healthcare crisis, rising medical costs, and celebrity GoFundMe campaigns that expose systemic failures in access to care [33:22]. From there, the hosts examine representation in media through the lens of Captain Durag, unpacking how Black culture is framed, commodified, and consumed across digital platforms [39:53]. Hip-hop drama resurfaces as they break down the ongoing feud between 50 Cent and T.I., exploring how personal attacks intersect with legacy, ego, and the broader culture of celebrity conflict [50:14]. The episode widens into current events and social commentary, emphasizing civic awareness and cultural responsibility [01:01:17], before closing with a critical discussion of the Epstein files, power dynamics, and the urgent need for community engagement and informed action [01:21:55]. Blending humor, nostalgia, and serious political critique, this episode delivers sharp insight into Black culture, sports economics, healthcare inequality, media representation, and hip-hop controversy in today’s social climate.

In Part Two we continue with the chirping and muttering of the Mog, who warmly endorses ICE, and praises Trump's global tarrifs, which ironically, have just been declared illegal and void by the Supreme Court. It is strange to hear Bruce D Hales speaking so authoritatively on the governance of great nations, while his own sorry banana republic collapse around his ears, and to hear him enthusing about punitive tariffs while his scandal-stained UBT is prosecuted for tax evasion. But then, what Hales ever scored a passing grade for integrity?After the team has finished politely and respectfully analyzing the Profound Wisdom of the Mog, we move on to some scathing emails from insiders who have much to say about the current leadership.

In Episode 373: The Pentagram Under the Stairs, we are joined by Brooke to discuss some of her wild experiences. Her earliest memory involving the paranormal happened when she was 5 years old and she had an imaginary friend, who in turn had a friend of its own! Brooke has also seen an angel and demons, and once moved into a house where she discovered a pentagram under the stairs. Later in the episode, she shares her experiences with sasquatch which occurred during some extreme hiking, and also describes how her husband's friend Casper passed away, but would sometimes continue to come and visit.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

Details can be found here: https://gofund.me/8068b7ab0 The story is that my brother, Brian, was out with his friends ice fishing in Maine. He left on his snowmobile to get more bait, or supplies or something, and he hit a pressure pocket (that's how it was describe to me) on the lake and it sent him flying. His helmet came off, he smacked the ice pretty violently, he's broken his neck, a bunch of bones in his chest and abdomen, and a lot of bones in his face. He's been unconscious and in critical care since this past Friday. My understanding is that today he's semi conscious and he's got 6-months to a year of rehab work ahead of him. My brother is a sign manufacturer, his wife is a nurse. They are not a wealthy family and financial help with medical bills would be something of a godsend. If you can afford to give, please do.

Arnie Katz has been running product and engineering under one roof since before most companies even considered combining the roles. As CPTO at GoFundMe, he oversees the teams behind a platform processing over 2.5 donations every second, with more than $40 billion in help facilitated worldwide. Arnie breaks down why the CPTO title keeps gaining traction, how he thinks about the role like a portfolio manager, and where the real trade offs live when one person holds both the product and technology reins.Key TakeawaysThe CPTO role works like a portfolio manager. Arnie manages the company's largest investment center by balancing short term business wins against long term platform bets, knowing when to take on technical debt and when to pay it down.Velocity, coordination, and alignment are the three biggest wins. When product and engineering report to one leader, decisions happen faster, roadmap conflicts get resolved without executive tug of war, and technical investments stay tied to business outcomes.The disadvantages are real. Without separate CPO and CTO voices at the executive table, certain perspectives can get muted. His fix: build a leadership bench strong enough to create the right tension underneath him.AI is changing what small teams can deliver. GoFundMe's eight person team behind Giving Funds is shipping at a pace that would have been impossible five years ago.Timestamped Highlights[00:38] The scale most people don't realize about GoFundMe, including 2.5 donations per second and GoFundMe Pro for nonprofits.[02:02] How Arnie first landed the CPTO title at StubHub seven years ago, and why it clicked.[09:11] The real downside of collapsing two C suite roles into one, and how Arnie designs around it.[13:57] His portfolio approach to technical debt, sequencing re platforming in areas like identity and payments while other teams ship business value.[18:38] AI reshaping engineering velocity, the future of the SDLC, and product teams prototyping without writing code.[23:06] Where the CPTO model is headed as the industry evolves.The Line That Stuck"I often think of myself as a portfolio manager. My job is to invest money where the company gets the best returns, where the mission gets the best return, where the shareholder gets the best returns."Pro TipsSequence your bets instead of spreading them thin. GoFundMe gave their identity and payments teams nine months of runway to re platform with no feature expectations while other squads picked up the pace on near term results.Build leadership that creates productive friction. Without CPO vs. CTO tension at the exec level, let your VPs and SVPs push back against each other. That tension is where the best decisions come from.Think in time horizons, not just priorities. Short term moves for 0.1% to 0.5% metric lifts. Midterm bets for 1% to 5% gains. Long term swings that could transform the business. Allocate across all three.If this conversation changed how you think about product and engineering working together, share it with someone on your team. Subscribe to The Tech Trek so you never miss an episode, and connect with Arnie on LinkedIn to keep the conversation going.GoFundMe is offering listeners of The Tech Trek a chance to open their own Giving Fund. For the first 50 people who open a Giving Fund and add $25 or more to their Giving Fund, GoFundMe will add an additional $25 to that Giving Fund. If you have a Giving Fund but have never contributed into it, you can also participate. The deadline for this incentive is March 13. To get this incentive, click here to start your Giving Fund.

“My proudest accomplishment is forgiving myself” ~ Gunplay Gunplay joins Skipping Class presented by The Progress Report for one of his most honest and revealing interviews to date. In this powerful conversation with host Lalaa Shepard, Gunplay opens up about the legal battle that changed his life, facing up to 15 years in prison, and spending over $250,000 fighting his case against his ex-wife. He speaks on clearing his name, overcoming public misconceptions, and the emotional toll the situation took on him mentally, financially, and spiritually. Gunplay also addresses the viral controversy surrounding his daughter's GoFundMe and the accusations that he used the money to buy Rick Ross a chain. He explains his side of the story, his loyalty to Rick Ross, and their relationship today. The MMG artist reflects on his personal transformation, including stepping away from Santeria after 13 years, experiencing spiritual warfare, and turning to God for healing and guidance. He shares why cutting his locs symbolized a new chapter in his life and why forgiveness — especially forgiving himself — is his proudest accomplishment. Gunplay also discusses rebuilding his career, releasing new music, navigating life after legal struggles, his upcoming projects, and the importance of growth, accountability, and faith. This is a raw and honest look into Gunplay's journey, redemption, and the next phase of his life and career.

This Week: We got a lot to cover this week! Students across the country are seizing the moment by engaging in the democratic process and walking out of school in protest of DHS terrorism. But the pushback is here. In LA the cops are telling kids to get back on campus, and in Texas the governor is going as far as threatening districts with state takeover where kids walk out. Also, the cartoon villains over at the Heritage Foundation published their call to arms to all hatemongers to fight to overturn the Plyler v Doe decision, which granted the right to all children to access free public education -- including undocumented kids. In what can only be described as a flimsy, clearly unconstitutional, and truly wicked stance on the issue, the effort to further traumatize undocumented families continues. Lastly, we explore a fascinating piece from the folks at the Digital Inquiry Group about how we can help students navigate the cesspool of misinformation and manipulation that is the online media landscape. But, is it easier said than done?

We explore how modern trafficking networks function today, the role technology plays in recruitment and exploitation, and why the crime is often harder to detect than people realize.

Episode Description: What's the strangest thing you've ever seen a neighbor do—or the most creative way you've paid it forward?

Tony is joined by Ali Siadatan, a world-renowned UFO researcher, to recount his 1999 UFO encounter in Iran, which occurred days after he felt led to warn his father about Ezekiel's prophecy of a future war between Iran and Israel. The sighting of a massive green, pulsating craft descending into the desert became a catalyst for his deeper study of Scripture and the Prince of Persia described in Daniel 10, which he believes connects to territorial spiritual powers over nations. The conversation then turns to present-day Iran, where Ali outlines the growing revolution against the Islamic theocracy and the brutal crackdown that followed.

Happy Thursday, you pop culture junkies.    In this episode of Pop Culture Mondays on Thursdays, we're breaking our usual "no-politics" rule because the internet simply wouldn't let us look away. From viral memes to heavy hearts, here is everything moving the needle this week.   • The Pam Bondi Meme-fication: Normally, we skip the Sunday shows, but the "50,000 memes" spawned by Pam Bondi's latest media appearances were too creative to ignore. We dive into how digital creators turned a political moment into a masterclass in internet humor. • Clavicular Goes Mainstream: Following up on last week's deep dive into the "looksmaxxing" trend, the movement's poster child, Clavicular, has officially hit the big leagues with a feature in The New York Times. We discuss whether this profile helps or hurts the community's controversial reputation. • Remembering James Van Der Beek: A somber look at the passing of a TV icon. We discuss the heartbreakingly intimate photos shared by his inner circle and address the growing online controversy surrounding the GoFundMe organized for his family. • Wisdom from Kuwait: On a lighter note, we're obsessed with the two young boys from Kuwait currently dropping life lessons and accidental philosophy across social media. It's the wholesome content we all needed. • Wuthering Heights Discourse: The internet has thoughts on the latest adaptation of the Brontë classic. Is it a cinematic triumph or a gothic miss? We round up the best (and snarkiest) takes. • The Watch List: Stick around for a quick-fire round of the new trailers, drops, and hidden gems you need to have on your radar for the weekend.     NYT article on Clavicular: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/13/style/clavicular-looksmaxxing-braden-peters.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share This week's newsletter: https://popculturemondays.com/2026/02/16/but-50000/

In an age where spirituality is increasingly mediated through screens, a hard question has to be asked: are we living Heathenry… or just performing it online?In this solo deep dive, I explore the growing tension between digital identity and embodied practice — how easy it has become to feel spiritually engaged while remaining physically disconnected from the work that actually roots this path in our lives.This isn't a condemnation of online community. It's a call to awareness.If Heathenry is shaping you, it should show up in more than your feed.

In this heavy-hitting episode of The All About Nothing: Kinda Daily Show, Barrett Gruber and Bill Kimler reflect on the passing of Reverend Jesse Jackson, who died yesterday at age 84. They pay tribute to his "Rainbow Coalition" legacy and the doors he opened for generations of leaders, while also addressing the complicated political accountability of the Jackson family.The conversation shifts to a massive breaking story from the United Nations, where experts have officially declared that allegations within the newly released Epstein files may meet the legal threshold for "crimes against humanity." The hosts discuss the systematic failures that allowed this global enterprise to persist and what this means for international justice.On the home front, the "low-fire" job market of early 2026 just got personal—Bill shares the news that 30% of his team was laid off this week. They dive into why GoFundMe is becoming the new social safety net for rent and groceries, the "insanity" of current voting controversies, and Barrett's ongoing struggle to access his Bitcoin.Key Topics: #JesseJacksonRIP #EpsteinFiles #UNReport #CrimesAgainstHumanity #2026Layoffs #JobMarketCrisis #GoFundMeEconomy #BitcoinProblems #CivilRightsLegacy #AllAboutNothingPodcastZac King | LinktreeBarrett Gruber | LinktreeBill Kimler | LinktreeThe All About Nothing: Podcast | LinktreeBlack White Blue in the South | Instagram, Facebook | LinktreeDr. Jumelle Brooks | LinktreeClick here for Episode Show Notes!As always, "The All About Nothing: Podcast" is owned and distributed by BIG Media LLC!Check out our network of fantastic podcasts!Click Here to see available advertising packages!Click Here for information on the "Fair Use Copyright Notice" for this podcast.Mentioned in this episode:ZJZ Designs - St Patrick's Day ShirtsZJZ DesignsBIG Media Copyright 2026BIG Media LLC

The symptoms started in kindergarten: Profuse vomiting, unexplained stomach issues and a sense of utter panic that no one could explain. For Katlyn Brooks, this wasn't just a ‘childhood phase’ - it was the beginning of a terrifying 20-year medical mystery…. The search for a physical cause turned into a mental health one, where therapy and antidepressants became the default solution. But, despite medication and regular therapy sessions, Katlyn's suffering only intensified. By high school, she knew the truth: this wasn't in her head. But realising that was one thing; getting the medical world to believe her was another. By April 2024, Katlyn’s body reached breaking point. Weighing just 40kg, and vomiting nonstop, she was admitted to hospital. There, she was eventually diagnosed with three conditions, including Craniocervical Instability (CCI). This structural failure left her just 2mm away from "internal decapitation", a condition with a 70% mortality rate. Today, Katlyn joins us to walk through her journey of medical mystery to the life-saving surgery that literally bolted her head back onto her spine. She discusses the "dark cloud" that lifted the moment her vagus nerve was decompressed and the reality of living with more than $1,000,000 of medical debt. THE END BITS Read more about Katlyn's story here. All your health information is in the Well Hub.

In this episode, Tony sits down with Joseph Infranco to unpack the claims presented in his book, Decoding Cody, regarding the documented accounts of non-speaking autistic individuals who communicate through spelling. Drawing directly from the book, they examine the description of “the Hill,” a place where participants report meeting Jesus, angels, and one another beyond physical limitation. They explore the fascinating portrayals of spiritual warfare, angelic hierarchy, prayer as incense before God, and the insistence that everything on the Hill worships Christ. They also evaluate the book's themes of discernment, counterfeit spiritual realms, and the possibility of a thinning veil between worlds. This episode carefully analyzes the book's claims and wrestles with what they would mean for the Church.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

The insurance industry has been lying to you — telling you that if you can't sell the "right" amount of life insurance, don't sell anything at all. Meanwhile, families are left with $8,000 in savings and a GoFundMe page.In this episode, I'm breaking down why "something is better than nothing" isn't just a feel-good phrase — it's backed by the numbers. I'll show you why all-or-nothing thinking is killing your life insurance production, how small policies actually lead to bigger ones, and why your customers' reality doesn't match the way most agencies approach life insurance.If you're a P&C agent or agency owner struggling to cross-sell life insurance, this one will change how you think about every customer interaction.What you'll learn: → Why partial protection is still protection → The real reason small policies lapse (it's not the size) → How to make life insurance fit the conversation your customer is already having → The "coffee vs. five-course dinner" mistake most agents make → How $25/month policies turn into $200/month programsWant to learn the exact scripts and frameworks?

Episode Description: “Can a movie really out-nerd Dungeons & Dragons?” That's the question that kicks off this lively episode of The JB and Sandy Show, where pop culture, real-life drama, and heartfelt stories collide.JB and Sandy welcome Steven Presley from ThunderPopTV, who brings the scoop on the upcoming live-action Magic: The Gathering movie—dubbed “nerdier than Dungeons & Dragons” and sure to empty out every comic shop on release day. The crew dives into the world of fandom, poking fun at the quirks and camaraderie of devoted gamers, with Sandy joking, “That place will be empty on the day this movie comes out. All those dudes… are going to be at the theater!”

On this episode of Slingshot Nation, Nick walks us through what happened on a piece of property bordering restricted TVA land — a night that began with a strange light in the sky and quickly turned into something far more unsettling. What he describes isn't just a sighting. It's an atmosphere shift. Missing time. A massive bipedal presence moving through the trees. Owl sounds that didn't sound like owls. A scream in the woods that didn't belong to anything natural. And a growing sense that he wasn't just observing something — something may have been positioning him there.But the story doesn't stop at the property line. Nick talks about the synchronicities that followed, the feeling that the encounter didn't fully end that night, and the questions that still linger. Was it coincidence? A cluster of unrelated events? Or was there intention behind it? We unpack the timeline, the environment, and the aftermath — and leave space for you to decide what really unfolded in those woods.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.
