This week Kate Sheppard and Colin Colbourn return to ask if Notting Hill is the greatest romcom of its generation.About our guests:Dr. Kathleen Sheppard earned her PhD in History of Science from the University of Oklahoma in 2010. After a post-doctoral teaching fellowship at the American University in Cairo, she arrived at Missouri S&T in the fall of 2011. She teaches mainly survey courses on modern Western Civilizations, which is arguably one of the most important courses students in 21st century America can take. Her main focus is on the history of science from the ancient Near East to present day Europe, United States, and Latin America. She has taught courses on the history of European science and Latin American science, as well as a seminar on women in the history of science.Sheppard's research focuses on 19th and 20th century Egyptology and women in the field. Her first book was a scientific biography of Margaret Alice Murray, the first woman to become a university-trained Egyptologist in Britain (Lexington, 2013). Murray's career spanned 70 years and over 40 publications. Sheppard is also the editor of a collection of letters between Caroline Ransom Williams, the first university-trained American Egyptologist, and James Breasted from the University of Chicago (Archaeopress, 2018). Sheppard's monograph, Tea on the Terrace, is about hotels in Egypt as sites of knowledge creation in Egyptology during the discipline's “Golden Age,” around 1880 to 1930.Women in the Valley of the Kings: The Untold Story of Women Egyptologists in the Gilded Age was published in July 2024. It has been reviewed in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and was a top 6 Reader's Choice non-fiction book on Goodreads.Dr. Colin Colbourn is the Lead Historian for Project Recover, where he manages historical operations to locate and identify U.S. service members missing in action from past conflicts. He is a graduate of Ball State University and went on to earn his MA and Ph.D. in U.S. History from the University of Southern Mississippi. His work at Project Recover blends family outreach, archival research, case analysis, and global field investigations to bring home missing service men and women. At Project Recover, Dr. Colbourn works with an interdisciplinary team of archaeologists, oceanographers, marine scientists, and engineers in order to apply modern technology to the mysteries of the past. Dr. Colbourn also teaches U.S. Military History as an Adjunct Professor at the University of Delaware.
Hi friends, Happy Tuesday! I'm so excited. I have a new AUDIO EXCLUSIVE for you!! It started with a shocking discovery: handcuffs, leg irons, and a knife — tools of control found sunken at the bottom of a drained reservoir. To investigators, the discovery wasn't just debris; it was the first clue in the disappearance of Elaine O'Hara. Elaine was a vulnerable woman who looked for an escape in the world of BDSM, unknowingly putting herself on a predator's radar. That predator? Graham Dwyer: a successful architect, a husband, and a father, who lived a polished life while secretly nurturing violent sexual fantasies. Today we're talking about a case that rocked Ireland. Thousands of sadistic text messages recovered from a secret set of "master/slave" phones detail a twisted plot. This is the story of how investigators used cell phone data to trace a double life that went from online fantasy to cold-blooded murder. Also, let me know who you want me to talk about next time. Hope you have a great rest of your week, make good choices and I'll be seeing you very soon xo Bailey Sarian I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in show.

Will AI Steal Your Soul? Host Tina Yeager sits down with Dr. Drew Dickens, an expert in theological anthropology and founder of the Encountering Peace app and podcast. Together, they tackle the captivating and sometimes unnerving question: "Will AI Steal Your Soul?" In an age where technology and artificial intelligence are evolving rapidly, Tina and Dr. Dickens address Christian perspectives ranging from hopeful embrace to genuine fear—and everything in between. They unpack what truly distinguishes humanity from machines, examining our unique spiritual dimension, creativity, and self-awareness, while exploring the allure and dangers of allowing digital innovations to shape our faith journeys. Listen in as Dr. Dickens shares practical advice on using AI responsibly, warns against the spiritual "sloth" that can emerge from overreliance on technology, and offers tools and meditations to help ground listeners in their relationship with God. Whether you're curious, cautious, or overwhelmed by the digital tide, this episode is packed with wisdom, encouragement, and actionable insights to help you flourish in your spiritual life—even in a tech-driven world. Episode highlights: ✨ AI, Faith & Fear: Dr. Dickens explores why many Christians find themselves oscillating between embracing, fearing, and being overwhelmed by the rapid pace of AI's evolution. He encourages us to step back and examine technology objectively, rather than being led only by emotion or popular culture. ✨ What Makes Us Human? The discussion dives deep into the essential qualities that separate humans from machines—our God-given ability to create and our unique self-awareness. Dr. Dickens highlights the difference between true spiritual interaction and the imitation of it by artificial intelligence. ✨ The Spiritual Cost of Convenience: Are digital tools making us spiritually lazy? Research reveals we're losing some ability to think critically and, spiritually, we risk letting AI stand in for genuine reflection, prayer, and relationship with God. ✨ Using AI Wisely in Your Faith Walk: Both Tina and Dr. Dickens agree: technology itself isn't evil, but we must check ourselves. Are we using AI to support our faith journey—or to avoid the hard but rewarding work of carrying our cross each day? ✨ Practical Spiritual Habits: Intentionality is key. Dr. Dickens reminds us to carve out time for prayer, community, and “unplugged” connection—acts fundamental to flourishing in faith despite our increasingly busy, tech-filled lives. Resources Mentioned: Encountering Peace App & Podcast: Experience guided Christian meditations designed to help you reconnect with stillness and the Spirit. Free resources, daily devotionals, and support for your spiritual muscles await at encounteringpeace.com. New Podcast: AI and Spirituality: Stay updated on how spiritual practice intersects with the latest tech changes. Search “AI and Spirituality” wherever you get your podcasts! Final Thought: As Dr. Dickens shares, beware of “acedia”—the subtle spiritual laziness that can creep in when we hand off our deepest work to technology. Each day, choose to lean in and do the good, sometimes difficult, work of nurturing your soul. We're thrilled to accompany you on this journey of faith, growth, and transformation.

Building a 7-figure business while staying married for 25 years doesn't happen by accident. In this follow-up episode, I'm sharing four more marriage secrets that have helped Jenny and me not just survive but thrive together. You'll discover why "I wouldn't bet against us" became our rallying cry when people doubted our dreams, how playing to our strengths means I handle parking while she handles money (and why we always go to bed at the same time), and what "hit the squirrel" really means when you're trying to see the big picture. Plus, I'll tell you why the best way to learn about someone isn't dinner—it's card games. These aren't just relationship tips; they're the soundtracks that helped us build a business, raise kids, and create a life we never thought possible.In This Episode:Grab your very own Soundtracks: The Conversations Card DeckMake sure to follow me on Instagram and share with your friends!Keep up with my book list on GoodReads!Sign up for my newsletter, Try This!Book me to speak at your event or to your team!My new book All It Takes Is a Goal is available!

How do we recover from workplace hurt? Welcome to Flourish-Meant! In today's episode, host Tina Yeager is joined by Meryl Herr, owner of the Good Works Group and an expert in helping marketplace leaders navigate the intersection of faith and work. Together, they're tackling a topic we can all relate to—workplace hurt. Whether it's major events like being laid off or the everyday frustrations and disappointments that chip away at our well-being, Meryl shares her insights on how to recognize, process, and heal from these wounds. Through stories, practical steps, and a faith-driven perspective, Meryl discusses the importance of separating our work from our identity, knowing when it's time to leave a toxic environment, and building the support systems we need to flourish. If you've ever felt lost, hurt, or stuck because of your job, you're not alone—and this episode offers hope, advice, and encouragement to help you rebound and find resilience in your career journey. Tune in for thoughtful conversation, actionable tips, and a reminder that healing and purpose are possible after work hurt. Here are a few highlights from our conversation:
After almost 25 years of marriage, my wife Jenny and I have learned a few things that actually work—not just the clichés you hear everywhere. In this episode, I'm sharing four practical "soundtracks" we use in our marriage and parenting that have made all the difference. From knowing when to pause an argument (hint: we do better with coffee) to understanding that winners actually quit all the time—just the wrong things—these aren't your typical relationship tips. You'll also discover why "everything is always working out for us" isn't toxic positivity but a powerful mindset shift, and how "family shows up" became our guide for being present when it matters most. These secrets work so well, our kids have started saying them too.In This Episode:Make sure to follow me on Instagram and share with your friends!Keep up with my book list on GoodReads!Sign up for my newsletter, Try This!Book me to speak at your event or to your team!My new book All It Takes Is a Goal is available!

It may seem weird, but my favorite way to read Amish fiction is with mystery or suspense added. I think I like the juxtaposition of the "simple, quiet" life and the upheaval. Listen in to my chat with Shelley Shepard Gray about her newest book, Unshaken. note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you. There are so many questions about the Amish, their ways of life, and their differences from us and from each other. We talked about the differences between people, sure, but we also looked at how the Amish look for the ways people are similar to them etc. Of course, we also talked about the Rumors in Ross County series and how her newest book connects. Unshaken by Shelley Shepard Gray He helps her hide until danger has passed. She hopes her cover lasts long enough. When Stephanie Miller planned her visit to a dollar store in southern Ohio, she was expecting to pick up a few items she couldn't find in her Amish community. She was not expecting to find herself an innocent bystander as a drug deal went horribly wrong. The sole witness to a murder, now Stephanie is targeted by the gunman. Hardy Anderson is always ready to help his social worker sister, Bev--which now includes hiding an Amish woman until a killer can be brought to justice. Surely if they dress her in English clothing, Hardy can hide her at the sprawling ranch where he works. But the killer is desperate--and there's no telling what lengths he will go.

I absolutely judge books by their covers, and as one of the top covers I've seen all year, Sowing Hope doesn't disappoint. Listen in to learn how Heather Wood weaves parts of history many don't know much about into amazing stories! note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you. I love that Heather writes about skilled Irish artisans before the potato famine. She also shared about how she wrote to show how slavery was getting worse, how she deals with an actual martyr, and about the Underground Railroad. Sowing Hope by Heather Wood Encounter the True Story of Abolitionist Editor Elijah Lovejoy Patrick Gallagher has done all he can—and it hasn't been enough. Now in his mid-thirties, he battles discouragement over his inability to make a difference in eradicating slavery. Longing to regain the hope and passion that once fueled his calling, Patrick sets out from his home in Maryland to meet his hero, Elijah Lovejoy, an anti-slavery editor in Missouri. Anna Markland actively serves her community and those traveling on the Underground Railroad. But her efforts feel small when she is constantly beset by headaches that leave her prostrate for days on end. When the enigmatic Mr. Gallagher enters her life, she discovers their hearts beat with the same dreams. Yet Anna knows that if she allowed him to pursue her, her weakness would hinder him from reaching his potential as an abolitionist leader. In the free states along his path, Patrick discovers that the Black and abolitionist communities are anything but free. Violent mobs, hateful rhetoric, and spineless politicians create a tinderbox of danger. What will he sacrifice for the cause he's devoted his life to—and will God finally use him to make the difference he longs to see in society? Don't miss the first interview with Heather HERE.

Μαζί μας ο Αντώνης Αντωνιάδης για την παρουσίαση του τελευταίου βιβλίου του ηχογραφημένο σχεδόν ταυτόχρονα με την κυκλοφορία του. Μιλάμε κυρίως για το τελευταίο βιβλίο του, αλλά και για τα προηγούμενες δουλειές του.Για τη "Ελένη…":279 π.Χ.: Οι Γαλάτες υπό την αρχηγία του πολέμαρχου Βρέννου εκστρατεύουν εναντίον της Ελλάδας με σκοπό να την κατακτήσουν. Είναι αποφασισμένοι να φτάσουν μέχρι την Πελοπόννησο και τίποτα δεν μπορεί να τους εμποδίσει, ούτε οι γενναίοι άνδρες που τους περιμένουν στις Θερμοπύλες. Εντωμεταξύ στην πόλη Θέρμο της Αιτωλίας, μια γυναίκα που δεν καταδέχεται να γίνει το άθυρμα της μοίρας, η Ελένη του στρατηγού Καλλίνου, θα βάψει τα χέρια της με αίμα για να εκδικηθεί τον άγριο βιασμό του αδελφού της Κλεομήδη. Ένα ανθρωποκυνηγητό εξαπολύεται στα βουνά της Αιτωλίας για να συλληφθεί η φόνισσα και να τιμωρηθεί παραδειγματικά. Καθώς όμως οι Γαλάτες πλησιάζουν και οι θεοί στα παρασκήνια μηχανορραφούν ασταμάτητα, όλα θα ανατραπούν παρασύροντας μαζί τους προαιώνιες βεβαιότητες και βαθιά ριζωμένες προκαταλήψεις… Μια ιστορία για τις γυναίκες που υπερασπίστηκαν τις οικογένειες και τα σπίτια τους. Μια ιστορία που αποσιωπήθηκε, αποκρύφτηκε για θρησκευτικούς και πατριαρχικούς λόγους και με το πέρασμα των αιώνων ξεχάστηκε.Για τον συγγραφέα:Ο Αντώνης Αντωνιάδης γεννήθηκε στην Άλτενα της Γερμανίας. Αποφοίτησε από τη σχολή Φυσικοθεραπείας του Βελιγραδίου. Από το 2000-2004 ήταν αρχισυντάκτης του περιοδικού "Άβατον", ενώ από το 2004 είναι διευθυντής του περιοδικού "Μυστική Ελλάδα". Το 2003 οργάνωσε την παραγωγή της τηλεοπτικής σειράς "Άγνωστες Πύλες" που προβλήθηκε στην ΕΤ3. Με κείμενά του έχει συμμετάσχει σε πολλά βιβλία και επίσης έχει επιμεληθεί ανάλογο αριθμό βιβλίων άλλων συγγραφέων.Πηγή: https://brainfood.gr/proion/i-eleni-tis-aitolias/Εικόνα "διαφήμισης" από: https://pixabay.com/photos/tv-set-tv-television-screen-cinema-4308538/Good Reads: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/5839786._

Send us a textHi Screen Team! A TV Trailer finally got its time on this segment. With all the current shows coming out, it's hard to get in time.

"Mother Ramona" Torres was born in the 1960s in a Kalon campsite in Realengo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Raised in a traditional Kalon Evoriana family, Ramona embodies the role of a Shuvanni—a spiritual guide, storyteller, and keeper of Romani magic and culture. Passionate about literature and mysticism from an early age, she began preserving her heritage through writing and teaching. Deeply devoted to Ramasordé—the spiritual path of her people—Ramona offers rituals, readings, and ceremonies rooted in Kalon wisdom. She began teaching at a time when sharing Romani magic publicly was rare, and became a respected figure in holistic and esoteric spaces across Brazil. With eloquence and vision, she invites others to honor Romani culture through love, celebration, and connection to the sacred. Ramona lives for the Ramasordé, which she sees as both her calling and her joy, and runs the spiritual center, Confraria Universalista ViAurum.Follow @luzdeevora on Instagram and Confraria Universalista ViAurum on Facebook.

Riddles? Hidden treasure? Secrets? Sounds like things are causing chills in Marlin County! Listen in to see what fearsome things Rae Riley will face in JPC Allen's latest mystery! note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you. I just love Allen's world in Marlin County, Ohio, and seeing her back with this new book is the highlight of my autumn. I mean, how much more Octobery can you get than a book with "Riddle" and "lonesome October" in it? Anne Shirley (if she'd been a mystery buff, anyway) would totally approve. A Riddle in the Lonesome October by JPC Allen How do you survive a season of fear? October is a hard month for Rae Riley's family. Her dad, Sheriff Walter "Mal" Malinowski lost his wife and father then. He also has to manage the trouble Halloween brings to rural Marlin County, Ohio. But this year, Rae's uncle fights for his life after a riding accident, and a family feud over a lost inheritance erupts at a local Halloween attraction. As Rae tries to support her family, she and her cousin Amber work to unravel the 70-year-old riddle that will reveal the location of the inheritance so their great aunt Lily and her kids can gain a fortune. And Rae must deal with the secretive behavior of the deputy she's fallen for. When a bogus medium conducts a séance to contact Cyrus Morley, the man who devised the riddle, the results stun everyone, and the aftermath is even more shocking. There's only one way to survive a season of so much fear--and only one way to unmask a killer. Learn more about JPC Allen on her WEBSITE and follow her on GoodReads and BookBub.

Hi friends, happy Wednesday! So the other day, I was googling jelly beans. Don't ask why, I was in a mood. But I ended up falling down a rabbit hole, and suddenly… I was reading about Ronald Reagan. Apparently, Reagan was *obsessed* with jelly beans. I guess he started eating them as a way to quit smoking. He swapped cigarettes for jelly beans. Inspired. But once he was hooked, he never looked back. There were jelly beans on Air Force One. Jelly beans in the Oval Office. Jelly beans sent to space with astronauts, I am not joking. At this point I stumbled onto a quote about his wife, Nancy Reagan, and let me just say...America may have called her the First Lady, but Hollywood had a slightly different title for her. If you know, you know. So today, I've got quite a story for you. Blow jobs, secret weapon deals, astrology, and a very intense power couple. This man ignored a literal pandemic, while letting his wife schedule national security briefings based on his horoscope. So join me for the Dark History of Ronald Reagan. Let's get into it. I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in the show. So here's the link if you want to check it out.

Hi friends, happy Tuesday! Sarah Boone and Jorge Torres Jr. had a history of violent fights, but when Jorge was found dead inside a suitcase, Sarah had a bizarre excuse: hide and seek gone wrong. WTF?! At first, she claimed it was a tragic accident—until police found videos of her laughing and taunting Jorge as he begged for air. Let's unpack the disturbing case of Sarah Boone—the woman who thought she could lie her way out of a murder caught on tape. Also, let me know who you want me to talk about next time. Hope you have a great rest of your week, make good choices and I'll be seeing you very soon. xo Bailey Sarian Also, I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in the show.

I recently told someone they should print out these 8 words and carry them in their wallet (which makes me sound ancient because who has a printer anymore?) But seriously, if you only remember 8 words from me in 2025, let it be these: "Big life, small worries. Small life, big worries." Here's the thing—if you want small worries, live a life so big you don't have time to stress over the little stuff. Stress grows in the big open chunks of unclaimed time. When I'm writing a book or planning an event, I don't have mental energy for social media drama or one-star Amazon reviews. But when I don't have a mission? That's when I can camp out on stress for days. Your retired uncle watching political news 12 hours a day? He chose a small life and now has bandwidth for big worries. The solution isn't pulling back from big opportunities—it's going all in on your big life and watching your worries shrink.In This Episode:Make sure to follow me on Instagram and share with your friends!Keep up with my book list on GoodReads!Sign up for my newsletter, Try This!Book me to speak at your event or to your team!My new book All It Takes Is a Goal is available!

Hi friends, happy Wednesday! The other day I was craving a big fat bowl of Honey Smacks cereal with whole milk. When I was a kid, that was luxury to me. But I hadn't had them in forever so I didn't even know if they were still around. You know me - I googled “HONEY SMACKS… DISCONTINUED??” Good news, they're around. Bad news… I found out about Kellogg's, the company that makes them, has been in some hot water lately. We all know inflation sucks and it's affecting *everything*, especially food prices. Tons of families across America are struggling to put food on the table. So the media asked a Kelloggs CEO for his reaction on that. And his response? He essentially said, [SARCASTIC] “MAYBE THEY SHOULD EAT CEREAL FOR DINNER.” Awkward. But this did get me thinking - why *do* we eat cereal for breakfast? Well I looked into it, and I stumbled into the world of John Harvey Kellogg, the man behind Kelloggs. And my mind was blown. Because behind that sweet little box of Honey Smacks is a freaky origin story. We're talkin' culty health retreats, yogurt enemas, and a crusade against masturbation. So buckle up if you dare, for the Dark History of …Kelloggs. I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in the show. So here's the link if you want to check it out.

Hi friends, happy Tuesday! A Harvard neuroscientist... denied a promotion... and a conference room massacre. On a quiet Friday in 2010... Amy Bishop walked into a faculty meeting at the University of Alabama. Forty-five minutes later... she did something horrific. But this wasn't a random act of violence... it was years in the making. Because when investigators started digging, they uncovered a chilling past: a dead brother, missing police records, unsolved bomb plots, and rage that had been bubbling just below the surface for decades. Who was Amy Bishop really... brilliant professor or ticking time bomb? And how did she get away with so much for so long? There were red flags fricken EVERYWHERE. Also, let me know who you want me to talk about next time. Hope you have a great rest of your week, make good choices and I'll be seeing you very soon. xo Bailey Sarian Also, I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in the show.
