As John gets more deeply involved with Dickie and Ritchie Fermin, he begins to discover the true nature of the brothers' business and begins to suspect he's underestimated the pair when he's confronted with a ghastly secret.

I connected with React 19 at the Children's Health Defense Conference in Austin earlier this month. I wanted to invite some of its members to share their stories of COVID shot injuries. To this day, most of the public is unaware of the horrific adverse events many people experienced when doing the “right thing” by taking the “vaccine” during COVID.Doctors ignored their conditions or claimed they were psychosomatic. Insurance companies often refused to cover their treatments, surgeries, and medications. Some victims' lives have been forever altered. They've gone from healthy and vibrant to bedridden and wheelchair bound. Some have died. Will anyone acknowledge them? Acknowledge their suffering? Acknowledge they tried to do their part to stop the spread of the virus—only to endure lifelong suffering?Will they ever be heard?React 19's mission is to support these victims and provide a platform through which they can share their story. At Love & Life we see them; we hear them; we walk arm and arm with them. They are not alone. We will continue to speak out and validate the trauma they've endured. Chris Pigott joins me today to share his story. Thank you for listening and bearing witness.Chris PigottX | x.com/pigott24React19React19 is a science-based non-profit offering financial, physical, and emotional support for those suffering from long-term Covid-19 vaccine adverse events globally.

Vietnam ended, but its shadow did not. This episode opens with Project 100,000 and the Pentagon Papers, where promises of opportunity and careful strategy give way to lowered standards, hidden escalation, and young men sent to fight under false stories. From there, we follow the Marines into uneasy interventions. Beirut begins as a mission of presence and ends in the rubble of the 1983 barracks bombing. Grenada and Panama mix rescue, raids, and regime change on small pieces of ground where the politics are anything but simple. The story moves into the 1990s, when Marines become first in for a new kind of mission. Desert Shield and Desert Storm show how fast they can break a fortified army, while Somalia, Liberia, Haiti, and northern Iraq put them to work feeding the hungry and guarding refugees. Again and again, Washington speaks in the language of good intentions, and Marines live with the cost.

Good Questions. Good Intentions. Genesis 18:1-15 Peter Kim

John has faced many monsters in his day, but none like the insidiously creepy ones that prowl America's highways. Arriving in Doglick, West Virginia, John Constantine encounters a family so nasty they make even him flinch.

We all have good intentions that keep colliding with reality. In this episode, we walk through Romans 7 to unpack the war within every believer, why willpower isn't enough, and how the Holy Spirit leads us from frustration into real freedom in Christ.

Released from prison, John Constantine discovers that an unseen hand has been pulling strings and making life very difficult for him. As he sets out to uncover the nature of the forces that have conspired against him, he experiences a different kind of danger.

The road to hell is paved in good intentions. What might this have to do with adoption?

Doug Stuart welcomes back James Whitford, founder of Watered Gardens and the True Charity Initiative, for an in-depth discussion on his new book, The Crisis of Dependency: How Our Efforts to Solve Poverty Are Trapping People in It, and What We Can Do to Foster Freedom Instead. James shares the journey from launching a small local ministry in Joplin, Missouri, to spearheading a national movement focused on transforming how we address poverty.Diving into the roots of toxic charity and the pitfalls of well-intended handouts, James explains how our charitable efforts often create cycles of dependency—rather than empowering those in need. He unpacks the principles of true charity: it should be privately funded, outcome-driven, and challenge-oriented, always respecting the dignity and agency of every individual.Doug and James also explore practical steps for compassionate, effective giving, the important role of relationships in overcoming poverty, and how churches and organizations can shift from relief-based to empowerment-based ministry. With references to Frédéric Bastiat, John Stuart Mill, and powerful personal anecdotes, this episode challenges listeners to rethink what it means to truly help—and to foster real freedom in their communities.Crisis of Dependency Book Description:Millions in the U.S. are trapped in cycles of poverty due to well-meaning but misguided charitable models. In The Crisis of Dependency, James Whitford, Founder of Watered Gardens Ministries, shares how our compassion often perpetuates the very problems we aim to solve. Through personal stories, firsthand experience, and research, he reveals that handouts offer temporary relief but deepen dependency.James has worked for decades with those struggling with homelessness and poverty and after a brief stint of living on the streets, he recognized that what most people in poverty need isn't material aid alone, but a path to self-sufficiency. Inspired by thought leaders like Marvin Olasky and Robert D. Lupton, and drawing from his own ministry, Whitford reimagined charity as one that restores dignity through relationship and accountability. His work has transformed lives by helping individuals build the skills and mindset needed for long-term success.This book offers a blueprint for those who want to move beyond transactional charity. James invites readers to embrace approaches that challenge the status quo and cultivate meaningful, sustainable change in communities.Audio Production by Podsworth Media - https://podsworth.com Use code LCI50 for 50% off your first order at Podsworth.com to clean up your voice recordings and also support LCI!Full Podsworth Ad Read BEFORE & AFTER processing:https://youtu.be/vbsOEODpQGs  ★ Support this podcast ★

Welcome to Episode 302 of Lucretius Today. This is a podcast dedicated to the poet Lucretius, who wrote "On The Nature of Things," the most complete presentation of Epicurean philosophy left to us from the ancient world. Each week we walk you through the Epicurean texts, and we discuss how Epicurean philosophy can apply to you today. If you find the Epicurean worldview attractive, we invite you to join us in the study of Epicurus at EpicureanFriends.com, where we discuss this and all of our podcast episodes. This week we continue covering Cicero's "Tusculan Disputations" from an Epicurean perspective. We will wrap up several loose ends from last week, complete Section XX, and move forward into XXI. The loose ends we need to cover are: 1 - Last week we spoke about the difficulty of taking sides in arguments where both sides claim the best of intentions, and even the same intention. This week let's take up the problem of how to proceed with both sides do in fact have good intentions, and let's talk about how to get off the "road to hell" that is paved with good intentions. 2 - We'll extend our discussion from disputes about pleasure to disputes about pain in looking at Cicero's final comment: "But suppose we are mistaken as to his pleasure, are we so too as to his pain? I maintain therefore the impropriety of language which that man uses when talking of virtue, who would measure every great evil by pain?" https://www.epicureanfriends.com/thread/4747-episode-302-td30-epicurus-and-roads-paved-with-good-intentions/

Today on the Daily Nugget, Mike talks about the importance of assuming good intentions with people. This is often easier with fellow believers, trusting that the Holy Spirit is at work in them, but it can still be challenging in the church and in the world. Through stories and reflections, we're reminded how much grace and patience it takes to love others well.

Can You Lead Too Much? In this episode of The Chris LoCurto Show, we break down how even good leadership can go too far—leading to resentment, confusion, or dependency. If you've ever wondered whether your praise, accountability, or delegation is actually helping—or hurting—this one's for you.

John and Tammy noticed someone had scratched the word "Mom" on a car that was clearly written by a child thinking they were doing something nice. But in reality, not so much... What did your kid ruin with the best intentions?

In this episode, Dr. John Patrick reflects on the foundations of culture, the moral nature of humanity, and the challenges of navigating a post-Christian, secular age. Drawing from personal encounters, historical examples, and biblical insights, he explores why “neutral” environments don't exist, why multiculturalism often distorts reality, and how our shared flaws shape the human experience.   // LINKS // Website: https://www.johnpatrick.ca/ Podcast: https://doctorjohnpatrick.podbean.com/ Biblical Literate Quiz: https://www.johnpatrick.ca/meaning-metaphor-and-allusion/ Recommended Reading list: https://www.johnpatrick.ca/book-list/ Ask Doctor John: https://www.johnpatrick.ca/ask/ LINKS: https://beacons.ai/doctorjohnpatrick

Send us a text Casey is a passionate, well-meaning therapist who believes in weight-inclusive care but freezes when clients bring up medical concerns. They've learned about anti-diet principles through Instagram and podcasts, but lack the medical knowledge to counter doctors' weight-focused advice. When a client receives a devastating diabetes diagnosis with the usual "lose weight" lecture, Casey wants to help but secretly wonders if the doctor might be right. Add in family pressure about their own weight, hostile colleagues questioning their approach, and the constant fear of professional consequences - and you have a dedicated professional caught between their values and their limitations. In this episode, I explore why therapists like Casey deserve support, not judgment, and how we can bridge the gap between good intentions and confident, evidence-based practice in the fight for weight-inclusive healthcare. For anti-diet and healthcare professionals, it's time to stop second-guessing your weight-inclusive approach, and get the research, tools, and professional certification to confidently counter medical weight bias:✓ Complete 12-module professional certification program✓ Lifetime access to expanding evidence library✓ Professional Directory listing for client referralsGot a question for the next podcast?

The Dangers of Good Intentions from Legislators Two listener emails start off discussions on minimum wages, degrees, property taxes, and surnames. While many legislators may have good intentions, their decisions can hurt citizens. It's not just the "paper money" that hurts; it's also the government paperwork. You can't legislate good results. Lower taxes and a free market can help businesses to grow, innovation to occur, and even results in higher tax revenue for governments via more value provided. We need the government to get out of our way. Beware the dangers of "good intentions" from legislators.

In an episode first released in 2010, then-producer Lulu Miller drives to Michigan to track down the endangered Kirtland's warbler. Efforts to protect the bird have lead to the killing of cowbirds (a species that commandeers warbler nests), and a prescribed burn aimed at creating a new habitat. Tragically, this burn led to the death of a 29-year-old wildlife technician who was dedicated to warbler restoration. Forest Service employee Rita Halbeisen, local Michiganders skeptical of the resources put toward protecting the warbler, and the family of James Swiderski (the man killed in the fire), weigh in on how far we should go to protect one species.EPISODE CREDITS:Reported by - Lulu MillerSignup for our newsletter!!

Mini-series Part 3: The Shape-Shift of Good Intentions Still White at the CoreIn this episode, Maureen moves the lens from pointing the finger outward to turning it inward, tracing how whiteness shape-shifts inside us, softening edges, pleasing, and protecting the status quo even when wrapped in the language of justice.Drawing from Angela Davis, bell hooks, James Baldwin, Stokely Carmichael, and Ibram X. Kendi, Maureen examines the ways “good intentions” can mask white supremacist logic, and how liberalism often trades transformation for comfort.With help from Diedra Barber's insights on how patriarchy and white supremacy have co-opted the sacred, feminist, and ancestral art of shapeshifting, Maureen challenges listeners to reclaim that power, not for compliance but for connection, accountability, and liberation. The film Sinners returns as a metaphor for assimilation's hidden cost: the invitation that drains your soul while appearing generous.This episode is a call to notice where you have adapted yourself to fit systems, and to choose shapeshifting as a tool for survival, integrity, and transformation instead.This week's reflection:Where do I shape-shift to maintain comfort rather than create change?What have I been taught by white supremacy and patriarchy that I am ready to transmute?How can I use the power to shift as a practice of accountability, care, and liberation?Support the showThis episode was created with deep love, and deep thanks to the frameworks and tools within Cultivating Intersectional Leadership, a course I co-created with Diedra Barber. CIL isn't just a training. It's a transformative journey—one that supports individuals and organizations in making the systemic, strategic, and spiritual shifts needed to build something different. Something rooted in justice. Something aligned with who we say we want to be. You're invited to learn more or inquire about participation at:

Richard and James are back with more cautionary financial tales. Richard Taylor, founder of Plan First Wealth, recently spoke to a connection who “had done a bit of research, learned that mutual funds were a problem, hadn't learned what PFICs were, and switched out of a mutual fund into an investment trust... thinking he'd dodged the problem, but in fact he'd gone from one PFIC to another.” What was the result? And why is it such a problem? You'll find out in this episode of From The Trenches.Richard and James share real-world stories that highlight how easy it is to fall into tax traps when dealing with cross-border investments, especially for UK expats living in the US. You'll hear how well-meaning financial decisions can backfire without the right context or professional advice, particularly around things like ISAs, investment trusts, PFIC reporting, and the long-term implications of missing forms like 3520 and 8621.Plus, expert advice and insight into retirement readiness. Richard and James explores what changes when you stop earning, why even successful DIY investors often hand over the reins, and how complex planning becomes when you're managing assets across two tax systems. If you're a Brit in America navigating retirement, tax compliance, or residency decisions, this episode will help you avoid costly mistakes, understand the emotional weight of retirement planning, and see the real value of cross-border financial advice.We're the Brits in America is affiliated with Plan First Wealth LLC, an SEC registered investment advisor.

Why do so many well-meaning goals fall apart before they ever take off? In this episode of the Behavioral Economics in Marketing podcast, we explore the intention-action gap — the frustrating disconnect between what people plan to do and what they actually do. Whether it's starting a new habit, executing a marketing campaign, or leading change within your organization, good intentions are often derailed by hidden behavioral pitfalls. We'll dive into the psychology behind this gap and unpack why things like procrastination, unclear planning, environmental distractions, and fading motivation keep even our best goals from becoming action. You'll also learn evidence-based strategies to bridge the gap — including implementation intentions, habit reinforcement, and small-step goal design. Perfect for marketers, leaders, and changemakers, this episode gives you actionable tools to turn vision into follow-through and create change that lasts.

For the Virgo Ascending reading on July 3rd, Seerine Tarot taps into that bittersweet space where someone sacrifices out of love — but it lands wrong. Their heart was in the right place, but the gesture might come off all wrong. This is a reminder that even noble intentions can trigger unexpected pain when love languages don't align. Let's dive into how good deeds can go misunderstood, and what that really means for healing.

What if some of the practices you've turned to for healing (like meditation, spirituality, or helping others) need a deeper shift to truly move you forward? In this powerful IQ episode, Brandy responds to a listener's question about how certain emotional and spiritual patterns can quietly block healing, even when you're doing all the “right” things. Drawing from her own journey and recent podcast episodes working with her beautiful volunteer, Melissa, Brandy highlights how subconscious patterns or beliefs, like seeing life as painful or feeling “too spiritual” to connect, can lead to isolation, illness, and recurring pain. In this episode, you'll explore: Why certain spiritual beliefs can unintentionally deepen feelings of isolation The surprising connection between helping others and feeling rejected What it really means to “check out” vs. truly heal How emotional patterns like rejection or superiority can disconnect you from others What it truly takes to shift your energy and repattern your mind for real, lasting change If you've ever felt like your efforts still aren't leading to deep healing or connection, this episode offers an eye-opening shift in perspective and a reminder of what it really means to show up for life. IMPORTANT NOTE: We understand that some may believe mind-body healing is impossible. Therefore, if you would like to see images of individuals using their minds to relieve pain, you can check out this medical journal. It includes images from some of Brandy's case studies. If you want to learn how to use your mind to heal yourself, you can check out the training on Brandy's website. Each week, Brandy publishes a volunteer episode where she coaches a volunteer to heal themselves using their own mind. In addition, Brandy shares a quick IQ episode (Insights and Questions) where she answers listener questions or delves deeper into insights on working with the mind for healing.
