Is modern culture actually paganism with better marketing? Dr. Lili de Hoyos Anderson explores how the worship of ancient gods of appetite never truly vanished–and why the keys Elijah restored are the hinge on which the salvation of Jesus Christ turns for the living and the dead.YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/zygaJqBXhPkFREE PDF DOWNLOADS OF followHIM QUOTE BOOKSNew Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastNTBookOld Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastOTBookBook of Mormon: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastBMBook WEEKLY NEWSLETTERhttps://tinyurl.com/followHIMnewsletter SOCIAL MEDIAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/followHIMpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/followhimpodcastTIMECODE0:00 - Part 1 - Dr. Lili de Hoyos Anderson1:22 Dr. Anderson bio and gratitude for her late husband1:46 Overview of paganism, ancient and modern4:04 Bio and her book The Non-Victim Christian 08:37 The divided kingdom and context for Elijah's ministry09:51 Elijah's ministry and keys11:44 Joseph Smith and Elijah14:15 Joshua to David to Solomon, Northern vs. Southern Kingdom25:51 Ahab and Jezebel and pagan gods28:57 The body is the test32:34 Paganism defined, dopamine culture and moral relativism41:00 Ancient paganism mirrors modern society47:52 Pornography and pastoral care for those struggling52:30 Christ's mercy, shame vs. guilt57:30 Ahab and Jezebel institutionalize idolatry; Obadiah hides the priests1:00:28 The widow of Zarapeth1:03:55 Elijah raises a child1:05:44 End of Part 1 - Dr. Lili de Hoyos AndersonThanks to the followHIM team:Steve & Shannon Sorensen: Cofounder, Executive Producer, SponsorDavid & Verla Sorensen: SponsorsDr. Hank Smith: Co-hostJohn Bytheway: Co-hostDavid Perry: ProducerKyle Nelson: Marketing, SponsorLisa Spice: Client Relations, Editor, Show NotesWill Stoughton: Video EditorKrystal Roberts: Translation Team, English & French Transcripts, WebsiteAriel Cuadra: Spanish TranscriptsAmelia Kabwika: Portuguese TranscriptsHeather Barlow: Communications DirectorSydney Smith: Social Media, Graphic Design "Let Zion in Her Beauty Rise" by Marshall McDonaldhttps://www.marshallmcdonaldmusic.com

Dr. Lili de Hoyos Anderson continues her deep dive into the ministry of Elijah from the spectacular fire of Mount Carmel to the still small voice that followed, revealing how God meets his servants at their breaking points, why the sealing power Elijah holds is the foundation of every family's eternal hope, and what it means to exercise righteous power in a world that has demonized it.YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/452lhpFd7CgFREE PDF DOWNLOADS OF followHIM QUOTE BOOKSNew Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastNTBookOld Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastOTBookBook of Mormon: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastBMBook WEEKLY NEWSLETTERhttps://tinyurl.com/followHIMnewsletter SOCIAL MEDIAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/followHIMpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/followhimpodcastTIMECODE0:00 - Part 2 - Dr. Lili de Hoyos Anderson2:44  Where do you stand?4:19 The Mt.

This month on Laura Flanders and Friends, we're revisiting conversations around solidarity, kinship and what it means to be human.  This week we learn from the feminist philosopher Donna Haraway about  thinking beyond binaries, cultivating community and taking risks. This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate Description: “Thinking requires action and passion,” says feminist philosopher and scholar, Donna Haraway in this unique conversation. In her 1985 essay “A Cyborg Manifesto” and 2003 work, “The Companion Species Manifesto”, Haraway challenged patriarchal, capitalist, binary, species-ist ways of looking at the world. It's no surprise that people are looking to her work again now. Generative thinking, she tells Laura, requires “taking the risk to try a new pattern; to invent something that may very well fall apart in your collective hands but leaves threads to be picked up again.” In this episode, Haraway and Flanders sit down for an expansive conversation about what it means to be human in an age of AI and resisting what she calls authoritarian “mono-thought.” Plus, a commentary from Laura on staying in the present and “staying with the trouble.” “An individual is embedded deeply in worlds with other people, with other organisms, with living and non-living parts of the world. To be a self is to come to a thicker appreciation and accountability for the way we're embedded in the world and act in the world. That's what I mean by being a proper self.” - Donna Haraway Guests:  Donna Haraway, Distinguished Professor Emerita, University of California Santa Cruz, History of Consciousness Department; Author, A Cyborg Manifesto, When Species Meet, Staying with the Trouble: Making Kin in the Chthulucene Watch the episode released on YouTube; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

This week we will be talking with Nathan Spainhour, author of The South Carolina BBQ Project (2025, Good Printed Things). Nathan is a designer and educator whose work explores the relationship between design, place, and cultural narrative.His book began as his MFA thesis in Graphic Design and has since evolved into an ongoing documentation of barbecue's visual culture – from signage and typography to architecture and everyday ephemera – situated within the broader history of Southern foodways. The South Carolina BBQ Project is a lot of fun. Part history, part design study, and part love letter to the state's most treasured foodway, the book explores the culture of barbecue across the Palmetto state.

Sam Eckersley, Associate Chair of Graphic Design at Savannah College of Art and Design joins SDH AM.Eckersley was the faculty lead on the SCADpro project of all the World Cup 26 walking and directional materials leading patrons to Atlanta Stadium for the tournament. We get into the development of ideas, coordination of talent pools and designs, and what he's learned about the process.

This month on Laura Flanders and Friends, we're revisiting conversations around solidarity, kinship and what it means to be human.  This week we celebrate Marsha P Johnson's life and legacy with two trans activists who are carrying on her work.  This show is made possible by you!  Make a one off donation or make it monthly at LauraFlanders.org/donate.  Episode Description: Activist and artist Marsha P. Johnson was one of the key founders of the gay liberation movement after the 1969 Stonewall Uprising, but it's taken years for her to receive recognition. On this special Pride Month edition of “Meet the BIPOC Press”, we're celebrating Marsha's life and legacy with two activists carrying her story forward. A new biography from Penguin House, “Marsha: The Joy and Defiance of Marsha P. Johnson” by our guest, Tourmaline traces Marsha's working-class beginnings to her work with sex workers and street activists, to her death in 1992. Qween Jean is a self-described “spiritual daughter” of Marsha and the founder of Black Trans Liberation. Explore how mainstream media coverage once excluded Marsha, and what's changed since then. We also unpack the media's coverage of transphobia and the recent ruling from Tennessee that restricts gender-affirming care for minors. In the face of extreme backlash and repression, how are artists and activists reframing media narratives for queer and trans liberation? “A lot of trans and queer people, especially here in New York City, that are asylum seekers that have had to leave other countries from persecution now find themselves in a place of purgatory . . . They can't even go to get a hormone shot because they're afraid. What if ICE is literally outside waiting for us?” - Qween Jean “Marsha knew that these conditions didn't get to determine how she felt about herself. No court, no Supreme Court, no police officer, no governor, no president . . . She was creating the conditions to remind herself and each other that we too get to feel beautiful and know our value firmly.” - Tourmaline Guests: •  Qween Jean: Founder, Black Trans Liberation; Human Rights Activist & Costume Designer  including 'CATS: The Jellicle Ball' on Broadway •  Tourmaline: Artist; Author, MARSHA: The Joy and Defiance of Marsha P.

This month on Laura Flanders and Friends, we're revisiting conversations around solidarity, kinship and what it means to be human.  This week we celebrate Marsha P Johnson's life and legacy with two trans activists who are carrying on her work.  This show is made possible by you!  Make a one off donation or make it monthly at LauraFlanders.org/donate.  Description: Activist and artist Marsha P. Johnson was one of the key founders of the gay liberation movement after the 1969 Stonewall Uprising, but it's taken years for her to receive recognition. On this special Pride Month edition of “Meet the BIPOC Press”, we're celebrating Marsha's life and legacy with two activists carrying her story forward. A new biography from Penguin House, “Marsha: The Joy and Defiance of Marsha P. Johnson” by our guest, Tourmaline traces Marsha's working-class beginnings to her work with sex workers and street activists, to her death in 1992. Qween Jean is a self-described “spiritual daughter” of Marsha and the founder of Black Trans Liberation. Explore how mainstream media coverage once excluded Marsha, and what's changed since then. We also unpack the media's coverage of transphobia and the recent ruling from Tennessee that restricts gender-affirming care for minors. In the face of extreme backlash and repression, how are artists and activists reframing media narratives for queer and trans liberation? “A lot of trans and queer people, especially here in New York City, that are asylum seekers that have had to leave other countries from persecution now find themselves in a place of purgatory . . . They can't even go to get a hormone shot because they're afraid. What if ICE is literally outside waiting for us?” - Qween Jean “Marsha knew that these conditions didn't get to determine how she felt about herself. No court, no Supreme Court, no police officer, no governor, no president . . . She was creating the conditions to remind herself and each other that we too get to feel beautiful and know our value firmly.” - Tourmaline Guests: •  Qween Jean: Founder, Black Trans Liberation; Human Rights Activist & Costume Designer •  Tourmaline: Artist; Author, MARSHA: The Joy and Defiance of Marsha P.

Fluent Fiction - Serbian: Allergic Obstacles: A Designer's Journey to Triumph Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/sr/episode/2026-06-14-22-34-01-sr Story Transcript:Sr: Никола је седео у свом омиљеном углу Куће слободних радника у Београду.En: Nikola sat in his favorite corner of the Kuća slobodnih radnika in Beograd.Sr: Била је касна пролећна поподневна светлост, савршено доба за инспирацију.En: It was the late spring afternoon light, the perfect time for inspiration.Sr: Велики прозори су пропуштали зраке сунца који су обасјавали шарене украсе и стварали топлу атмосферу где је сваки креативни ум могао наћи свој мир.En: Large windows allowed the sun's rays to illuminate the colorful decorations and create a warm atmosphere where every creative mind could find its peace.Sr: Никола је био фриленс графички дизајнер.En: Nikola was a freelance graphic designer.Sr: Волео је своју независност и слободу креације, али је често имао сумње у своје способности.En: He loved his independence and creative freedom but often had doubts about his abilities.Sr: Данас је био од посебног значаја јер је радио на важном пројекту за клијента који би му могао донети дугорочан рад и стабилност.En: Today was of particular importance because he was working on an important project for a client that could provide him with long-term work and stability.Sr: Дубоко је удахнуо и отворио кесицу новог бренда грицкалица које је претходно купио у малој продавници у близини.En: He took a deep breath and opened a bag of a new brand of snacks he had previously bought in a small nearby store.Sr: Радећи и грицкајући, потпуно је био у свом свету креативности.En: While working and snacking, he was completely in his own world of creativity.Sr: Али није прошло дуго, а осетио је свраб по рукама и грлу.En: But it wasn't long before he felt itching on his hands and throat.Sr: То је било нешто ново и неочекивано.En: This was something new and unexpected.Sr: "Ана, нешто није у реду", прошапутао је Никола својој пријатељици која је такође радила недалеко од њега.En: "Ana, something isn't right," Nikola whispered to his friend, who was also working not far from him.Sr: Она је одмах приметила његово црвенило и забринуто погледала.En: She immediately noticed his redness and looked at him with concern.Sr: "Можда је то алергијска реакција", предложила је брзо.En: "Maybe it's an allergic reaction," she quickly suggested.Sr: "Имамо клинику одмах иза угла.En: "We have a clinic right around the corner.Sr: Да ли желиш да идемо?En: Do you want to go?"Sr: "Али Никола је мислио о чврстом року који је имао.En: But Nikola was thinking about the tight deadline he had.Sr: Ако оде, можда неће стићи на време завршити пројекат.En: If he left, he might not finish the project on time.Sr: Ипак, свраб се појачавао, а визија му се полако замагљивала.En: However, the itching intensified, and his vision gradually blurred.Sr: Одлучио је.En: He decided.Sr: "Идем у клинику", уздахнуо је.En: "I'm going to the clinic," he sighed.Sr: "Боље је да проверим шта ми се дешава.En: "It's better to check what's happening to me."Sr: "Са Милошем, који га је подржавао све време, стигао је до клинике.En: With Miloš supporting him all the while, he arrived at the clinic.Sr: Лекар је брзо уочио да је Никола имао реакцију на нову грицкалицу.En: The doctor quickly noticed that Nikola had a reaction to the new snack.Sr: Након што је примио одговарајућу терапију, вратили су се у Кућу слободних радника.En: After receiving the appropriate treatment, they returned to the Kuća slobodnih radnika.Sr: Вративши се, прво што је требало било је позвати клијента.En: Upon returning, the first thing he needed to do was call the client.Sr: Срце му је убрзано куцало док је смишљао објашњење.En: His heart was racing as he composed an explanation.Sr: "Извините што нисам на време завршио пројекат", почео је.En: "Sorry I didn't finish the project on time," he began.Sr: "Имао сам изненадну алергијску реакцију.En: "I had an unexpected allergic reaction.Sr: Могу ли да добијем кратку продужење рока?En: Could I get a short deadline extension?"Sr: "На његово изненађење, клијент је био разумевајући.En: To his surprise, the client was understanding.Sr: "Никола, ваше здравље је најважније.En: "Nikola, your health is most important.Sr: Узмите време које вам је потребно.En: Take the time you need."Sr: "Овај искуствa научила су Николу да је здравље најважније.En: These experiences taught Nikola that health is paramount.Sr: Понекад је потребно прихватити помоћ и бити искрен о изазовима.En: Sometimes it's necessary to accept help and be honest about challenges.Sr: Вратио се пројекту с новом мотивацијом и обновљеним осећајем мира, одлучан да заврши свој рад са истом страшћу која га је и довела овде.En: He returned to the project with new motivation and a renewed sense of peace, determined to complete his work with the same passion that brought him here.

ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST — Where do magazine designers go after all the magazines are gone? That's a question we've often pondered in recent years. Well, if you've been paying close attention, you'd probably guess, as it turns out, a lot of them go to Cupertino. And much of this migration can be traced to 2014, when today's guest, AIGA Medalist and Emmy award-winning creative director Arem Duplessis, left his storied job at The New York Times Magazine to go to work at Apple. You might be asking yourself, "Why would one of America's most high-profile magazine designers leave a coveted job at an iconic publication—one that brought him global recognition, countless awards, and deep creative satisfaction—for a famously secretive company known, well, for locking away its talent in a vault of non-disclosure agreements?" But the better question might be, "Why wouldn't he?" Duplessis is arguably one of the most influential creative directors of his time. His ten years of covers for The New York Times Magazine shaped its vision and identity. As creative director at GQ, he helped create the now-ubiquitous Gotham family of fonts. And he's blazed the trail for print designers in search of digital futures. While the departure of big-name magazine designers like Rem to Silicon Valley may strike fear in some, it reaffirms what many of us have long known: Despite years of slumping newsstand sales and magazine closures, the all-purpose skills of elite creative directors are still very much in demand. As former ESPN creative director Neil Jamieson says, “Why wouldn't Apple be hiring magazine designers? No category of designer is more multifaceted. Beyond the fundamentals, they do branding, packaging, identity, storytelling. They have experience on set, with video, social, and short-form storytelling.” There's no question there's a dire need in the corporate field for these kinds of skills. The question that remains unanswered, so far, is: Can that kind of digital work ever deliver the same creative fulfillment that magazines do? We talked to Duplessis about learning to scuba dive in his Dad's Virginia quarry, the modeling career that wasn't, cutting his teeth at the controversial hip-hop magazine, Blaze, adapting to life on the West Coast, and what he's planning for life after work. — THIS EPISODE IS MADE POSSIBLE BY OUR FRIENDS AT COMMERCIAL TYPE AND FREEPORT PRESS.

CHECK, PLEASE — Thanks for tuning in. Just a note before we get going: This is the 50th episode of The Full Bleed, and I, along with the team here at Magazeum, truly appreciate the time you spend with us. Waiting is what I consider a perfect magazine. Not because of its design or the writing, though both are stellar. But mostly because it functions as a closed loop. How? The subject and the audience are one and the same. Waiting, you see, is a magazine about creatives in New York's service industry. And it is a magazine for creatives in New York's service industry. That's a neat trick and also makes me wonder why no one had done this before founder, editor-in-chief, and complete magazine neophyte Adele Blanton hit upon the idea. Adele has done the math: 10 percent of the estimated 700,000 people working in the food and beverage industry in New York are artists of some kind. Artists, actors, writers, dancers. You name it. And that number is a healthy baseline for any publication. Waiting has published three well-received issues and now she and the team behind it has to figure out how to maintain and grow the media. That's one of the many things we talk about on the show. Did we tell you this is our 50th episode? Because it's our 50th episode. — This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

When was the last time you felt free to be creative? To just let loose and tap into your creativity in an inviting and supportive space? I was thinking about these points when I took in the Something Sketchy – Bad Drawing Only event in January.  This gathering comes from the wonderful mind of Jaymie Raefta, a Saskatoon illustrator and artist who has become one of my favourite people in the past few years.  Once every few months in a warehouse space in Riversdale, Jaymie hosts a gathering of people who love to draw, no matter their ability, and encourages them to draw badly. Very badly.  Jaymie, who uses they/them pronouns, emcees the evening. They embrace the role with the vigor and charm of a late-night television talk show host. Jaymie's quick wit and humour, along with quirky musical selections, create the perfect vibe for people to draw.  The drawing comes from specific prompts which Jaymie comes up with. My favourite was the following: draw your favourite co-worker as a cold baked potato.  You have two minutes to complete your drawing, and at the end of each round, the table votes on the best bad drawing.  What I love about these Something Sketchy nights is the creative community they are forming in Saskatoon. The room was packed with more than 30 people who giggled and laughed throughout the night while making new friends and reconnecting with old ones. The people came from all walks of life: artists, graphic designers, potters, and even a mailman. You will hear from these people how much it means to them to have a devoted set time and space to be creative in this episode, and you will hear why these Something Sketchy nights mean so much to Jaymie.  This has been an amazing season of YXE Underground, and I am so thrilled to end it with such a fun and meaningful episode.  If you want to learn more about the Something Sketchy – Bad Drawing events, look up Plastic Salad on Instagram. This is an illustration collective created by Jaymie to promote illustration in Saskatchewan, and there's a Something Sketchy event happening on Wednesday, June 17th, from 6:30pm-8:30pm that you should totally check out!  A big thank you to Jaymie and everyone at the Something Sketchy for letting me share their stories on the podcast.  If you have enjoyed this episode and are a fan of the podcast, please feel free to leave a glowing 5-star review and share it with your friends.

Welcome, Cedric Earle Douglas, also known as Vise1 - again! Our first conversation on Podcast Episode 230 was so good, we decided to make it a two-parter. Cedric, in case you didn't know, is a street artist among his many other credentials. Cedric was born in Boston. He received his BFA in Graphic Design from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design Mass Art. Cedric's first experience with public art was writing his name creatively on abandoned spaces. Cedric is also the founder and Creative Director of The Up Truck, a creative art lab that is designed to engage underserved Boston communities. Cedric Douglas is widely recognized for his large-scale murals and portraits and is highly regarded by a broad range of audiences. His public art project, Street Memorials, takes a hard look at racial injustice and its deadly impact on the black community. The People's Memorial project requires viewers to "rethink the future of memorials and monuments." Cedric Douglas continued his conversation with The Artists Index's cofounder, documentarian, and now occasional podcast host, Ron Fortier, recently, about his passion, his practice, and his journey as an artist. This episode was recorded at our recording studio at Spectrum Marketing Group at Howland Place in New Bedford.   Cedric Douglas New Bedford, Massachusetts 02780 Email | Website | Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn | Other   We're not asking for you to finance a nonprofit.

Story Transcript:It: Nel cuore della vivace metropoli, le strade erano affollate di gente che passeggiava tra negozi alla moda e vetrine colorate.En: In the heart of the lively metropolis, the streets were crowded with people strolling among fashionable stores and colorful shop windows.It: Era una tarda mattina di fine primavera, e il sole splendeva, promettendo una lunga e calda estate.En: It was a late morning in late spring, and the sun was shining, promising a long and hot summer.It: Marco, un giovane graphic designer, camminava con calma lungo il viale principale.En: Marco, a young graphic designer, was calmly walking along the main avenue.It: Marco era un ragazzo timido e riservato.En: Marco was a shy and reserved guy.It: Amava vestirsi con abiti neutri, preferendo i toni del grigio e del blu.En: He loved to dress in neutral clothes, preferring shades of gray and blue.It: Tuttavia, dentro di sé, c'era una passione segreta per la moda audace.En: However, inside him, there was a secret passion for bold fashion.It: Questa mattina, aveva deciso di affrontare una piccola sfida personale: acquistare vestiti estivi più vivaci.En: This morning, he had decided to face a small personal challenge: to buy more vibrant summer clothes.It: Entrò in un negozio di abbigliamento colorato e sentì subito una leggera ansia salire.En: He entered a colorful clothing store and immediately felt a slight anxiety rise.It: L'atmosfera era frizzante, con musica allegra che riempiva l'aria.En: The atmosphere was lively, with cheerful music filling the air.It: Giulia e Luca, due dei suoi colleghi, erano entrati nello stesso negozio, ma lui ancora non li aveva notati.En: Giulia and Luca, two of his colleagues, had entered the same store, although he hadn't noticed them yet.It: Marco si avvicinò a un espositore pieno di camicie dai colori sgargianti.En: Marco approached a display full of brightly colored shirts.It: Una, in particolare, attirò la sua attenzione: era di un rosso vivo e aveva motivi geometrici arancioni e gialli.En: One, in particular, caught his attention: it was a vivid red and had orange and yellow geometric patterns.It: Esitò per un istante, poi, con un respiro profondo, prese la camicia e si diresse verso il camerino.En: He hesitated for a moment, then, with a deep breath, took the shirt and headed toward the fitting room.It: Dentro il camerino, Marco provò la camicia.En: Inside the fitting room, Marco tried the shirt on.It: Guardandosi allo specchio, era sorpreso da quanto gli piacesse.En: Looking at himself in the mirror, he was surprised by how much he liked it.It: Tuttavia, la sua insicurezza riemerse.En: However, his insecurity resurfaced.It: Pensava: "E se attiro troppo l'attenzione?En: He thought, "What if I draw too much attention?It: Non sono abituato a vestire così."En: I'm not used to dressing like this."It: Con decisione, uscì dal camerino con la camicia ancora addosso.En: With determination, he left the fitting room with the shirt still on.It: Fu allora che incontrò Giulia, che lo riconobbe immediatamente.En: It was then that he met Giulia, who recognized him immediately.It: "Marco, quella camicia è fantastica su di te!"En: "Marco, that shirt looks fantastic on you!"It: esclamò con un sorriso.En: she exclaimed with a smile.It: Le sue parole furono come un balsamo per l'insicurezza di Marco, facendo svanire ogni dubbio.En: Her words were like a balm for Marco's insecurity, erasing any doubt.It: Sentendo l'incoraggiamento di Giulia, Marco decise di acquistare la camicia.En: Hearing Giulia's encouragement, Marco decided to buy the shirt.It: Alla cassa, vide anche delle bermuda di un azzurro brillante e dei sandali verdi.En: At the checkout, he also saw some bright blue Bermuda shorts and green sandals.It: Con coraggio, aggiunse anche quei capi al suo acquisto.En: With courage, he added those items to his purchase as well.It: Uscì dal negozio con un sacchetto pieno di vestiti colorati e un nuovo sorriso stampato sul viso.En: He left the store with a bag full of colorful clothes and a new smile on his face.It: Sentiva che, finalmente, aveva trovato il modo di esprimere la sua vera personalità.En: He felt that, finally, he had found a way to express his true personality.It: La sua passeggiata di ritorno era leggera, persino il passo più deciso.En: His walk back was light, even his step more assured.It: Quella giornata divenne un punto di svolta per Marco.En: That day became a turning point for Marco.It: Aveva scoperto che la moda poteva essere una forma di espressione di sé, senza il timore di essere al centro dell'attenzione.En: He discovered that fashion could be a form of self-expression, without the fear of being the center of attention.It: Con ogni passo, si sentiva più sicuro, accolto nella versione più autentica di sé stesso, pronto a colorare il mondo con il suo stile unico.En: With every step, he felt more confident, embraced in the most authentic version of himself, ready to color the world with his unique style.

This month on Laura Flanders and Friends, we're revisiting conversations around solidarity, kinship and what it means to be human. This week we explore 'The Fantasy and Necessity of Solidarity', with author and activist Sarah Schulman, who shares what she's learned from AIDS activism to Palestine. Description: What is “solidarity” and what does it require? Giving up on perfection, for one thing, says Sarah Schulman, author of “Conflict is Not Abuse,” and so much more. Award-winning writer, teacher, playwright and activist, Schulman's latest book is “The Fantasy and Necessity of Solidarity”, in which she reflects on years of experiments and learning, from the 1980s to today. In this episode, find out what role GRITtv, an earlier iteration of Flanders' show, played in the movement for Palestinian liberation, and hear a discussion of the Harlem artist Alice Neel. Schulman sits on the advisory board of Jewish Voice for Peace. Her non-fiction books include “Conflict is Not Abuse: Overstating Harm, Community Responsibility, and the Duty of Repair” and “Let the Record Show: A Political History of ACT UP New York, 1987-1993”. Also in this episode, a commentary from Laura on the assassination of Minnesota lawmaker Melissa Hortman, a strategic progressive who practiced solidarity. “When I confronted the Israeli occupation of Palestine, something resonated for me emotionally between that and the AIDS experience.

This month on Laura Flanders and Friends, we're revisiting conversations around solidarity, kinship and what it means to be human. This week we explore 'The Fantasy and Necessity of Solidarity', with author and activist Sarah Schulman, who shares what she's learned from AIDS activism to Palestine. Description: What is “solidarity” and what does it require? Giving up on perfection, for one thing, says Sarah Schulman, author of “Conflict is Not Abuse,” and so much more. Award-winning writer, teacher, playwright and activist, Schulman's latest book is “The Fantasy and Necessity of Solidarity”, in which she reflects on years of experiments and learning, from the 1980s to today. In this episode, find out what role GRITtv, an earlier iteration of Flanders' show, played in the movement for Palestinian liberation, and hear a discussion of the Harlem artist Alice Neel. Schulman sits on the advisory board of Jewish Voice for Peace. Her non-fiction books include “Conflict is Not Abuse: Overstating Harm, Community Responsibility, and the Duty of Repair” and “Let the Record Show: A Political History of ACT UP New York, 1987-1993”. Also in this episode, a commentary from Laura on the assassination of Minnesota lawmaker Melissa Hortman, a strategic progressive who practiced solidarity. “When I confronted the Israeli occupation of Palestine, something resonated for me emotionally between that and the AIDS experience. What I felt was similar was that people who were endangered were being falsely depicted as dangerous.” - Sarah Schulman “Right now we're in the middle of a cataclysm of fascism and there's no quick fix.

Egyptian print media has historically functioned as a cultural barometer, shifting from the early official bulletins of the 20th century into a relentless and aggressive form of capitalism on steroids. Professor Bahia Shehab discusses her book, "A Trade in Dreams: A Century of Egyptian Print Advertising", unpacking how visual culture has been both a witness to and a victim of political upheaval. Her research illuminates a century where advertising functioned as legalized psychological operations, deeply embedded in the daily life of Cairo. By dissecting the visual language of the past, she provides a necessary framework for understanding the mono-culture and flattening of aesthetic diversity in the modern era.   00:00 Introduction 01:32 Invention of the Egyptian Press 04:00 The Business Model of Early Advertising 05:50 Motivations for Researching Advertising History 08:20 Discoveries in Beauty Standards and Race 09:55 Sequential Chronology and Political Tectonic Shifts 12:13 Napoleon, Egyptomania, and Early Visual Communication 17:14 1920s–1940s: Agriculture and the Tobacco Export Industry 20:00 Professionalization and Multinational Ad Agencies 22:31 Hybrid Aesthetics: International vs. Local Design 27:21 The Nasser Era: Socialism and Nationalized Media 30:57 The Sadat Era: Peace Treaties and the Open Door Policy 32:33 Influential Figures and the Silencing of Female Voices 37:01 Domination of the Soap Industry 48:58 The 1940s: The Golden Age of Egyptian Advertising 57:04 Egypt's Leading Role in Regional Advertising 59:08 Book Tour and Future Perspectives   Bahia Shehab is a multidisciplinary artist, designer, political activist and historian whose work focuses on the interaction and intersection of modern identity and ancient cultural heritage. Her imaginative combination of calligraphy and Islamic art history produced cutting edge, beautiful, impactful street art during the Arab Spring and continues to inform her work as an educator and designer. Having always been concerned with identity and preserving cultural heritage, she investigates art history to reinterpret contemporary Arab politics, feminist discourse and social issues. Her culturally oriented work enables her to use history as a means to better understand the present and find solutions for the future. She believes that art may be employed for the purposes of social change and has explored this phenomenon through her artwork, which focuses on socially charged themes such as the Arab identity and women's rights. Her research is largely concerned with understanding the Arabic letters and has been preoccupied with Arabic calligraphy in much of her work. Her work has been displayed in exhibitions around the world and she has received several awards and recognition for her achievements.   Connect with Bahia Shehab

This month on Laura Flanders and Friends, we're revisiting conversations around work, workers, and the Labor Movement on the Move.  This week we explore how the folks at The People's Network for Land & Liberation (PNLL) are building for the future in the midst of the crisis facing us now.  They say the forces that got us here are bigger than one bad leader; entire systems must be taken down. This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate Description: People across the country are resisting authoritarianism in creative and powerful ways, and this is just the start. The folks at The People's Network for Land & Liberation (PNLL) say the forces that got us here are bigger than one bad leader; entire systems must be taken down. Building a brighter future requires a vision of economic and social justice — and lots of practice. Today on Laura Flanders & Friends, we look at some of those practical experiments and paths for radical change, and discuss why they're just as important as resistance. The members of PNLL, a multiracial, multiethnic consortium of six community-based organizations, are doing politics and economics differently in real places across the U.S. right now. Joining us are Edget Betru, an attorney, activist and Coordinator of the People's Network for Land & Liberation; David Cobb, PNLL staff person and Co-coordinator of the U.S. Solidarity Economy Network; and Blair Evans, Founder and Executive Director of Incite Focus, a production and training lab based in Idlewild, Michigan. Find out how to build for the future — even in the toughest circumstances. All that, plus a commentary from Laura on William Morris's News From Nowhere. “We've been colonized in our minds . . . Involving people in day-to-day produce, meeting their needs through a different way, through thinking, Hey, who in my neighborhood knows how to fix this? . . . It's really that shift in consciousness that needs to happen that's going to allow for this new economy to emerge.” - Edget Betru “My mama and my mamaw and my papa who raised me taught me a lesson as a little boy, and that is, there's enough to go around as long as we share. That made sense to me when I was five years old. It makes sense to me now when I'm 63 years old. There's enough to go around as long as we share. It's just as simple as that.” - David Cobb “We can make things that make things, we can design and build our own equipment that can then use locally sourced materials, hyper localizing the supply chain . . . We can stop feeding the monster that's consuming us and actually disconnect from that process and use what we have.” - Blair Evans Guests: • Edget Betru: Coordinator, People's Network for Land & Liberation; Board Member, Community Movement Builders • David Cobb: Staff, People's Network for Land & Liberation; Manager, Butterfly Impact Fund; Co-Coordinator, U.S. Solidarity Economy Network • Blair Evans: Coalition Member, People's Network for Land & Liberation; Founder & Executive Director, Incite Focus; Designer & Trainer, Fab Lab   Watch on YouTube this episode that includes video clips referenced in this episode from Third World Newsreel; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

Dr. Lori Denning turns to two of Israel's most complicated judges, Gideon and Samson, and shows how gifted, Spirit-empowered men and women can unravel under the weight of pride and broken covenants, and why their stories are less a museum exhibit than a mirror.YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/dOm_VzXsybcFREE PDF DOWNLOADS OF followHIM QUOTE BOOKSNew Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastNTBookOld Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastOTBookBook of Mormon: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastBMBook WEEKLY NEWSLETTERhttps://tinyurl.com/followHIMnewsletter SOCIAL MEDIAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/followHIMpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/followhimpodcastTIMECODE00:00 - Part 2 - Dr. Lori Denning02:29 Gideon tears down his father's idol at night03:31 Joash steps into the gap to defend his son and a twin story06:36 The significance of Joash and Jael as additional helpers07:11 Signs that confirm faith vs. create it–The Fleece10:44 Applying the fleece12:09 Gideon's downfall–pride, the ephod, and the parallels15:32 Absolute power corrupts absolutely17:02 Sampson's introduction and the repeating cycle18:42 Monoah's unnamed wife–the elements of birth type scene22:28 The Nazarite vow and Samson as symbol of covenant Israel25:23 Samson's mother lives the Nazarite vow and Minoah's slowness27:38 Parataxis–Minoah's reaction vs his wife's recognition of the angel33:28 Anonymity in scripture as universality35:09 Sampson as cautionary tale and failure to repent36:41 Samson's first words, “I saw, I took.”40:32 The Philistine wife story: The riddle, the betrayal, and the burning42:57 Transition to Delilah, Samson is already corrupt44:02 “Fell in love” as covenant language and Delilah as anti-mother45:48 The 4 rounds with Delilah and secret of his hair48:10 Samson chained, blinded, only prayer for personal vengeance50:12 “Everyone did what was right in their own eyes”51:00 Closing reflection: Hope, warning signs, Jesus as true king53:42 Women in Judges as covenant markers, and final testimony of Jesus Christ58:14 End of Part 2 - Dr. Lori DenningThanks to the followHIM team:Steve & Shannon Sorensen: Cofounder, Executive Producer, SponsorDavid & Verla Sorensen: SponsorsDr. Hank Smith: Co-hostJohn Bytheway: Co-hostDavid Perry: ProducerKyle Nelson: Marketing, SponsorLisa Spice: Client Relations, Editor, Show NotesWill Stoughton: Video EditorKrystal Roberts: Translation Team, English & French Transcripts, WebsiteAriel Cuadra: Spanish TranscriptsAmelia Kabwika: Portuguese TranscriptsHeather Barlow: Communications DirectorSydney Smith: Social Media, Graphic Design "Let Zion in Her Beauty Rise" by Marshall McDonaldhttps://www.marshallmcdonaldmusic.com

This episode of followHIM features John Bytheway, Hank Smith, and Dr. Ross Baron exploring the “historical books” of the Old Testament—Joshua through Esther—and how they reveal God's hand in Israel's history over roughly 800 years, from the entry into the promised land to the Persian period. They explain that these narratives show the blessings and consequences tied to the Abrahamic Covenant and emphasize that God is patient, merciful, and consistently works with His people at their level while inviting them higher.YOUTUBEhttps://youtu.be/f7JYw1YHgNgFREE PDF DOWNLOADS OF followHIM QUOTE BOOKSOld Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastOTBookNew Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastNTBookBook of Mormon: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastBMBookWEEKLY NEWSLETTERhttps://tinyurl.com/followHIMnewsletterSOCIAL MEDIAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/followHIMpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/followhimpodcastThanks to the followHIM team:Steve & Shannon Sorensen: Cofounder, Executive Producer, SponsorDavid & Verla Sorensen: SponsorsDr. Hank Smith: Co-hostJohn Bytheway: Co-hostDavid Perry: ProducerKyle Nelson: Marketing, SponsorLisa Spice: Client Relations, Editor, Show NotesWill Stoughton: Video EditorKrystal Roberts: Translation Team, English & French Transcripts, WebsiteAriel Cuadra: Spanish TranscriptsAmelia Kabwika : Portuguese TranscriptsHeather Barlow: Communications DirectorSydney Smith: Social Media, Graphic Design"Let Zion in Her Beauty Rise" by Marshall McDonaldhttps://www.marshallmcdonaldmusic.com

He explains how the episode introduced both graphic designer Ryan — creator of the iconic nodding Dopey logo — and Todd Curry, Dave's longtime using buddy who would later die in 2018, just weeks before Chris. Dave reflects on Chris's original idea for a “Dopey Stories” book made up of listener submissions and stories from the show. He talks about failed attempts to pitch the project to publishers and wonders whether self-publishing a Dopey book on Amazon might finally make sense. He invites listeners to resend their best stories to dopeypodcast@gmail.com. Disclaimer: I think I called Spanish People Stupid - but it was meant totally with love. Dave then shifts into a recap of Music on the Mountain in Vermont, where he attended with Linda and the kids. He talks about seeing Anders Osborne, Daniel Donato, Jackie Greene, Karina Rykman, Eggy, Lamp, and others. Susan celebrates her eighth birthday and hilariously insists on introducing bands onstage after Dave lets her introduce Karina Rykman. Dave admits Susan might actually be a better MC than him. Dave promotes the upcoming Dopey Short Film Festival at the SVA Theater, mentioning Mountainside as a possible title sponsor and joking about Katz's desserts and Othello cookies potentially being involved. He reads Patreon and Spotify comments reacting to the previous replay episode, including discussion of Rush, Basketball Diaries, Knicks playoff hopes, bread basket addiction, and people missing Chris. Dave goes on multiple tangents about bread, fitness, the Knicks, and Cleveland versus Detroit. The replay itself begins with Chris and Dave just starting to record when Todd randomly calls in. Todd immediately launches into a story about getting arrested while allegedly trying to buy weed in a housing project. Chris and Dave immediately question the story while Todd insists he was only trying to buy marijuana. The conversation spirals into stories about community service, Delancey Street cleanup duty, reverse discrimination jokes, airport profiling, Todd's history with Dave, and their years selling drugs together. Chris openly campaigns for Todd to become a recurring Dopey guest while Dave resists because Todd is still actively using heroin and weed. Graphic designer Ryan joins the conversation and explains why he loved Dopey from the beginning — because it wasn't a traditional recovery podcast. He says recovery shows felt too church-like, while Dopey mixed active addiction stories with recovery in a way that could actually reach addicts. Todd and Dave argue about whether active users should appear on Dopey. Ryan attempts to sober coach Todd live on the air, asking him what heroin does for him emotionally. Todd admits heroin covers feelings of loneliness, insecurity, and self-hatred. He describes failed relationships, yoga classes, women, and using heroin to cope with emotional pain. Ryan explains the basics of abstinence and recovery while Todd half-jokes and half-confesses his inability to stop using. Chris mostly eggs the entire thing on while enjoying the chaos. The episode shifts into stories about Mountainside and the infamous “Phase Four” extended-care house. Ryan explains how he entered treatment planning only to save money for heroin afterward, but somehow ended up getting sober instead. Dave admits he originally thought Ryan would never stay sober, while Dave himself eventually relapsed despite appearing more serious about recovery at the time. Ryan tells wild detox stories involving escaping treatment during withdrawal, trading a $2,500 laptop for heroin bundles, walking through snowstorms, and eventually landing at Mountainside. The group discusses relapse, sobriety, AA sponsorship disasters, yoga, heroin addiction, and the randomness of getting sober. The episode eventually devolves into jokes about Dave's disgusting toenail, Instagram photos, podcast structure, and arguments about whether episodes should be one hour long. Chris insists on ending every episode with “Good So Bad,” while Dave complains nobody wants long podcasts — ironic considering modern Dopey episodes often run three hours. Back in present-day narration, Dave reflects emotionally on hearing Todd and Chris together again. He reveals that Todd eventually appeared on Dopey multiple times, including once when he left mid-recording to go downstairs and shoot heroin before returning to finish the episode high. Dave closes by talking about Ryan's later recovery work at Berkshire Transition Network and how foundational he was to early Dopey. He reflects on the pain, foreshadowing, and innocence captured in the episode before ending with “Good So Bad” and a tribute to Chris and Todd. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What do a former harlot, a river that parted on faith, and a pile of rocks have in common–and what does God want you to remember about all three? Dr. Camille Fronk Olson unpacks the first four chapters of Joshua from Rahab's unlikely covenant to the twelve stones pulled from the Jordan riverbed as a reminder that the Lord's power is worth remembering.SHOW NOTES/TRANSCRIPTSEnglish: https://tinyurl.com/podcastOT221ENFrench: https://tinyurl.com/podcastOT221FRGerman: https://tinyurl.com/podcastOT221DEPortuguese: https://tinyurl.com/podcastOT221PTSpanish: https://tinyurl.com/podcastOT221ESYOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/z7y3dJlV5N4FREE PDF DOWNLOADS OF followHIM QUOTE BOOKSNew Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastNTBookOld Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastOTBookBook of Mormon: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastBMBook WEEKLY NEWSLETTERhttps://tinyurl.com/followHIMnewsletter SOCIAL MEDIAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/followHIMpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/followhimpodcastTIMECODE:00:00 - Part 1 - Dr. Camille Fronk Olson00:23 Hank receives Robert J.
