Podcasts about Greed

 The fact that millions of people share the same vices does not make these vices virtues, the fact that they share so many errors does not make the errors to be truths, and the fact that millions of people share the same form of mental pathology does not make these people sane.It takes a moment to tell someone you love them, but it takes a lifetime to prove it.The lust for power is not rooted in strength but in weakness.The task we must set for ourselves is not to feel secure, but to be able to tolerate insecurity.Love isn't something natural. Rather it requires discipline, concentration, patience, faith, and the overcoming of narcissism. It isn't a feeling, it is a practice.If other people do not understand our behavior-so what? Their request that we must only do what they understand is an attempt to dictate to us. If this is being 'asocial' or 'irrational' in their eyes, so be it. Mostly they resent our freedom and our courage to be ourselves. We owe nobody an explanation or an accounting, as long as our acts do not hurt or infringe on them.Greed is a bottomless pit which exhausts the person in an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction.Man's main task in life is to give birth to himself, to become what he potentially is. The most important product of his effort is his own personality.Paradoxically, the ability to be alone is the condition for the ability to love.FORTITUDE IS THE CAPACITY TO SAY NO WHEN THE WORLD WANTS TO HEAR 'YES'Hate is a product of the unfulfilled life.As long as anyone believes that his ideal and purpose is outside him, that it is above the clouds, in the past or in the future, he will go outside himself and seek fulfillment where it cannot be found. He will look for solutions and answers at every point except where they can be found- in himself.The deepest need of the human being is to overcome ourseparateness, to leave the prison of our loneliness.Selfish persons are incapable of loving others, but they are not capable of loving themselves either.The affirmation of one's own life, happiness, growth and freedom, is rooted in one's capacity to love.The scars left from the child's defeat in the fight against irrational authority are to be found at the bottom of every neurosis.The danger of the past was that men became slaves. The danger of the future is that man may become robots.

"You shall not covet your neighbor's wife. You shall not set your desire on your neighbor's house or land, or anything that belongs to your neighbor" (Deuteronomy 5:21). Last week, I indicated that the Sabbath command introduces the last six. Rest is not just between us and God but also provides space to love our neighbour. Today, let's consider a story in which a lack of Sabbath led to deadly consequences. It is the story of Naboth's vineyard in 1 Kings 21. This one is included among the stories concerning Elijah whose task was to call the royal family to account. The top family in Israel has abandoned the Lord God to pursue Baal and Asherah. Covet is not used in the narrative, yet the story illustrates the nature of coveting and the ruin it brings to human society. Naboth is a small-time farmer whose land is his 'ancestral inheritance'. This is property which God gave to his forefather when Israel entered the land of milk and honey. For generations, Naboth's ancestors have enjoyed the fruit of the land. They had lived contently on the Lord's gift to them. However, in our story, king Ahab has seen this vineyard. He set his eyes on it long enough for his heart to desire it. When he approaches Naboth to purchase it, the king is rebuffed. Ahab sees all property as tradable commodity; everything is up for acquisition. There is always a price. But Naboth counters, "The Lord forbid that I should give you the inheritance of my ancestors (3)." The king is reminded that God is involved in economic exchanges and has imposed limits. These limits ensure that that those with power and money cannot keep acquiring at the expense of those with less influence and means. Further, in Deuteronomy 17, Israelite kings are instructed not to acquire lots of stuff nor to consider themselves above the law. Ahab cares a little about all of this, but Queen Jezebel not at all. She implements a scheme that ends in Naboth's death after which Ahab acquires what his heart desires. The story makes clear that coveting is not only a desire for someone's possessions. It is also the active capacity to seize what one desires. The enormity of this abuse of power is evident in Elijah's judgement on the royal couple. Everything they have will be striped from them and they themselves will meet an ominous end. A society cannot survive if coveting rules the day. This passage invites us to explore our own hearts. We must regulate inner desires, ensuring that thoughts, as well as actions, are obedient to God. Excising the slightest feeling of covetousness that arise in the mind must be our first and only response to greed and envy. God calls us to secure a neighbor's property and rights from both active harm and inner, selfish longing. That is good Sabbath work. This story allows us to stray into the political. When we elect our politicians, it is important that we consider their character as much as their platform. Greed at the top filters down. This story is a warning. As you journey on, hear Jesus' invitation: Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls (Matthew 11:28-29).

CPXL Season 2 • Episode 8: What Jesus Says about Greed and True WealthCPXL, or CrossPoint Extra Large, is your midweek companion to the weekend message from CrossPoint. Each episode takes a deeper dive into the Sunday sermon—exploring the text further, unpacking broader themes, and offering practical ways to live out God's Word. Designed to equip and encourage Everyday Missionaries, CPXL helps you Love God, Grow Up, Serve All, and Live Sent.This week on CPXL, Pastors Andy Addis and Eric Franklin lean into the heart of generosity following Vision Weekend, exploring what Jesus teaches about money, security, and the condition of our hearts. Centered on Luke 12:13–21 and the warning against living foolishly, they unpack the parable of the rich fool and Jesus' encounter with the rich young ruler in Matthew 19:21–22. Together, these passages reveal how easy it is to build bigger barns while neglecting eternal treasure.We explore the subtle pull of accumulation, the danger of mistaking blessing for ownership, and how generosity becomes a safeguard against self-reliance. What does it mean to be rich toward God? How do we ensure our lives are marked not by what we store up, but by what we surrender? In the end, this conversation reminds us that generosity is not primarily about dollars—it's about devotion. And the way we steward what we've been given reveals where we truly believe our security lies.CrossPoint is one church in many places, reaching Kansas by catalyzing God's people to be Everyday Missionaries.Find a location near you: crosspointchurch.com/locations#CPXL #Genesis #Ishmael #BibleStudy #ChristianPodcast #CrossPointChurch

Logan Holloman | Next Gen Pastor | March 1, 2026 Referenced Scripture: Matthew 28:20, Luke 12:13-34, Exodus 16:16-20, Luke 11:2-4, 1 Timothy 6:6-19, Luke 16:13-15 Reflection Questions:1. In what ways am I choosing to depend on God's generosity for my felt need? And in what ways am I restricting God's generosity by my own self sufficiency? 2. Is the way I relate to money more reflective to the American economy or God's economy? What is one step, just one practical change, that I can make to live more generously in my relationship to money and possessions. 3. Stay committed to developing a personal rhythm of confession. Begin giving attention to what this practice of confession could look like in your everyday life, and let it lead you into greater freedom, honesty and forgiveness. 4. Choose generosity to counteract greed. Greed is taking more than we need for ourselves, regardless of how that affects others. This week consider where you can be generous. Ask yourself: What do I have more than enough of? And who could I share it with? What's your next step? * Connect: We'd love to connect with you!

All sin separates us from God. Some sins—pride, envy, wrath, sloth, greed, lust, gluttony—can destroy us. Jesus gives us virtues that overcome these vices.This 8-week series examines the Seven Deadly Sins not to shame, but to reveal our need for grace. Each week shows how these sins infiltrate life, harm relationships, and distance us from God—and how Jesus provides the way out. The final week focuses on virtue and victorious life in Christ.Today we focus on greed as a deadly sin rooted not in wealth itself but in a heart of disordered desire and scarcity. Pastor Joel argues that modern consumer culture fuels constant craving, convincing us we never have enough. Challenging the myths that greed only affects the rich or can be virtuous, the message warns that greed ultimately destroys individuals and societies. Using Scripture, especially the parable of the rich fool, it calls believers to choose contentment and generosity, finding true satisfaction in God rather than in accumulating more.Let's listen in…LINKS + RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE:• Dr. Rebecca DeYoungGlittering Vices and other recommended reading for this series• Avarice (Greed)• Thomas Aquinas, Clement of Alexandria (150-215 AD), Wallstreet movie, Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand, The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith• Plutocricy• Augustine of Hippo“…our hearts are restless until they rest in you”• CS Lewis“He who has God and everything else has no more than he who has God only.”• Download the free study guide, complete transcript, and show notes here.• Scripture References: Luke 12, verses 15-21; 1 Timothy 6, verses 6-10; Proverbs 15, verse 27; Proverbs 11, verse 28; Proverbs 15, verses 16-17; 2 Corinthians 9, verse 7 • Find out more about Covenant Church at ⁠covenantexperience.com

Growing up in a “make 100K, spend 110” household, Justin Buonomo watched money chaos tear his family apart two bankruptcies, cars repossessed, even losing the family dog when they lost their home. At 18, he received an $80,000 settlement from a childhood car accident… and promptly repeated the same patterns he'd seen modeled. That painful experience plus later work on the business side of Johns Hopkins Medicine set him on a decade-long quest to understand money through a different lens: biblical wisdom, proven financial strategy, and intentional stewardship. Today, Justin is the CEO and founder of Journey to Financial Freedom, where he and his team help faith-based individuals break generational cycles, heal money trauma, and step into a life that honors both God and their goals. In this episode, Justin shares why budgeting is not punishment but the primary tool God can use to increase your freedom, options, and peace of mind when it's taught the right way. He explains why most financial programs fail long-term: they try to “fix” behaviors without ever addressing the beliefs and subconscious programming formed between ages 7–10. You'll hear how childhood experiences around scarcity, bankruptcy, or “rich people are bad” scripts keep showing up in your adult bank account, why “money is the root of all evil” is one of the most misquoted verses in the Bible, and how to align your finances with God's heart instead of fear or greed. Justin also unpacks his Good Steward Program, the crucial role of accountability and community, and how mentorship can give you “wisdom without the wounds” in both personal finance and entrepreneurship. Quotes: “Finances that work take work. There's no quick solution but when you're taught by the right person with the right intentions, it doesn't have to feel confusing or restrictive.” “Your external wealth is just a reflection of your internal wealth. If you only manage behaviors and never heal the beliefs, the old habits always find their way back.” “Money isn't the problem. Greed and idolatry are. God calls us not to ignore money, but to steward it.” Resources: The Good Steward Justine Buonomo on Linkedln

Originally published in 1836. This edition has been revised for readability. Greed rarely announces itself. It settles quietly into the habits of church life—into what we excuse, what we overlook, and what we learn to call "normal." It can hide behind respectability, careful budgeting, and even religious busyness, while love grows cold and generosity becomes optional. In Greed: The Church's Quiet Sin, John Harris exposes the subtle ways covetousness reshapes a congregation—how it dulls prayer, weakens compassion, distorts priorities, and slowly turns God's people inward. With sober clarity and pastoral urgency, he brings Scripture to bear on a sin that many believers fear to name, yet feel daily. This is not a book for pointing fingers at the world. It is a call to the household of faith: to repentance without despair, to stewardship without legalism, and to a renewed joy in laying up treasure in heaven.

This week on I Hate Critics, we're breaking down the latest theatrical releases hitting screens the weekend of February 20th. It's a lineup filled with crime, thrills, and plenty of dark twists. Here's what we're covering: How to Make a Killing A darkly comedic crime thriller that dives into the chaos that unfolds when ordinary people find themselves in extraordinary—and deadly—circumstances. Greed, bad decisions, and escalating consequences fuel this fast-paced story where one wrong move leads to another. Does it deliver sharp satire and suspense, or does it miss the mark? We weigh in. Psycho Killer This horror-thriller throws audiences into the mind of a relentless murderer, blending slasher elements with psychological tension. Stylized violence and cat-and-mouse suspense aim to keep viewers on edge—but is it a fresh take on the genre or a retread of familiar territory? We break down the scares, the storytelling, and the body count. Crimes of Passion A steamy neo-noir crime drama where desire and danger collide. When obsession takes hold, lines between love, betrayal, and criminality blur. With heightened drama and provocative themes, this one sparks plenty of conversation. Is it an engaging throwback to erotic thrillers of the past, or does it struggle to find its voice? As always, we share our honest reactions, sharp debates, and maybe even a few laughs along the way.

Jason Abreu grew up in a good family, on track to become a lawyer, until the recession blew up his plans and pushed him into the New York City nightlife scene. What started as legit nightclub promoting slowly turned into moving drugs through NYC clubs, big money, fast nights, and a double life he thought he had under control. Then undercover cops took him down, and Jason was sent to New York state prison. He got out, went right back to the game, and got caught again, earning a second trip upstate. In this episode, Jason sits down with me and breaks down exactly how it happened: the first bad decision, how the nightclub world really works, the rush of easy money, the takedown, and what New York state prison is actually like on the inside, from daily politics to survival _____________________________________________ #NYC #NewYorkStatePrison #PrisonLife #UndercoverCops #DrugDealing #NightclubCrime #TrueCrime #prisonstories _____________________________________________ Thank you to 300 LETTERS for sponsoring this episode: Visit http://300letters.org/ to learn more or get support.

Return On Investment God First Essential Church February 22, 2026

"Sin is simply the fruit of idolatry" Jesus declared that his disciples would be his witnesses “to the ends of the earth.” Early Christians lived out this proclamation in powerful and palpable ways. Today we struggle to witness to those close to us, let alone to those at the ends of the earth. This series offers a glimpse into ways early Christians witnessed. Impacted?

https://enlighteninglife.com/greed-grift-graft-spiritual-industry/We are watching, in real time, the collapse of the guru era — the for-profit spiritual industry built on glamour, paid access, and manufactured enlightenment. This is not only about Deepak Chopra's infamous relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, although that plays a part. For nearly two decades I've witnessed people pour their faith, money, and power into authors and teachers who positioned themselves as the sole keepers of truth. I knew it could not and would not last, something I have been saying for many years. I have been part of the spiritual world longer than most of the people who are now writing public apologies. While others built high-ticket empires and declared themselves enlightened, I did my work quietly, consistently, and with integrity. I turned down publishers, refused to share stages with those I thought were fraudsters, and never sold access to myself as a product. So this moment of reckoning does not surprise me. The truth always rises. And the collapse of the guru economy was inevitable. Now the curtain has finally been pulled back and people are left wondering whom to trust. My work as a spiritual mentor, teacher, and guide began by accident, first in 1991 when I started a spiritual group in Houston, Texas that quickly grew to include hundreds of members. Then in 2004, when I answered a calling that required me to give up a career I loved in business and technology. I never saw myself as a ‘leader,' I did not want to be a ‘guru,' I just wanted to help people find their own path and learn how to be in control of their own energy. Since 2004 I have written 8 books, all self-published, all best sellers. No ‘famous' author has ever written a promotional blurb for me, I was not part of their crowd. I have written over 5000 articles, started the first internet-based live weekly broadcast in March 2004 that I still host today. I started teaching online courses in March 2004, an early pioneer in online training. Read the rest of the article on the blog at I have millions of followers and students – but I do not have millions of social media followers. You have probably never heard of me, and I am OK with that.

EPISODE OVERVIEW In this first installment of our Lenten series on The Seven Deadly Sins, Deacon Chris explores the spiritual roots of gluttony and greed. Through the lens of Genesis and the Temptation of Jesus in the desert, we discover that the real battle is not about food or money — it is about trust. Temptation begins when we believe God is small. From there, we grasp for substitutes. This episode challenges us to examine: How we use comfort to numb deeper hunger How we cling to control instead of trusting the Father How Lent can enlarge our desire for God KEY TAKEAWAYS Hunger is not sinful — it can be holy. Gluttony is the refusal to be empty. Greed is the fear of dependence. The devil tempts us to live as orphans. Jesus overcomes temptation by remaining the Son. Freedom begins with a pause and a simple prayer. PRACTICAL CHALLENGE Before reaching for your default comfort, pray: “Jesus, what am I really hungry for?” Wait five minutes. Reclaim your freedom. SCRIPTURE REFERENCES Genesis 3:1–7 Romans 5:12–19 Matthew 4:1–11

Lent 2026 begins with a new long-term journey for Central Vineyard: over the next seven years, we'll move through the Deadly Sins FOR LENT, one each Lent, as we let Jesus reform what deforms us. In this opening message from Luke 4, we explore Lent as preparation, not punishment — a wilderness season where truth, repentance, fasting and generosity can make us ready for resurrection life. We also begin with a light introduction to the Deadly Sins and highlight greed, naming how the quiet drive for “more” can shrink trust, distort vision, and harden the soul. To counter this, we are invited to practise generosity and simplicity, and rediscover the freedom of knowing Christ is enough.

Greed

David Roberts spent nearly four decades in finance—starting on Wall Street in 1983 and joining Angelo Gordon in 1993, when the firm was a 15-person shop managing about $300M. By the time he left, the firm managed roughly $50B in assets, and David contributed to that growth by helping build and launch several of the firm's businesses. After retiring, he created Sparks From Culture, a widely read Substack, which provides its nearly 9,000 readers with “weekly personal essays on wealth, status, and family from someone with generational wealth, writing with transparency.”Our host, Ross Overline, is one of David's readers.In this conversation, David and Ross explore the hardest questions finance leaders rarely discuss publicly: How do you know when you have “enough”? Why does comparison keep resetting our definition of success? What are the risks of wealth concentration?They discuss inequality, philanthropy, competing views of capitalism's current state, and how greed often shows up as self-justification. David makes the case for generosity as a stabilizing force in society—and shares how he's translated these beliefs into real, high-impact giving.The episode closes with a simple but unforgettable principle: the butterfly effect—small acts of generosity can change a life more than you'll ever know.Meet David David Roberts is a retired Partner of Angelo Gordon, where he joined in 1993, helping build and scale investment platforms across real estate, structured credit, and net lease. After retiring in 2022, he briefly served in public service as Senior Advisor to Maryland's Secretary of Commerce.In recent years, David has become a thoughtful public voice through his Substack newsletter Sparks From Culture (no payment necessary). All proceeds from paid subscriptions are donated to the Robin Hood Foundation, reflecting David and his wife Debbie's long-standing commitment to impact-driven giving.He holds a B.S. from The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

Epstein List Meltdown, RFK & Kid Rock's “Bro Workout,” and NYC's Print-Money Housing Plan Dan and Corey riff on the awkwardly named “12 day war” and the possibility of another Iran conflict, arguing U.S. war cycles and shifting goalposts (from nukes to missiles/protests) mirror past regime-change disasters like Libya, Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan. They spend time on Epstein, insisting elites across both parties are implicated, questioning why there's no major public uprising, and describing how internet “fog” and clips like the Leslie Wexner deposition hot-mic muddy real accountability. Comedy bits include Dan's vivid dream about arranging a Jake Paul–sanctioned fight with Tim Pool, plus a long roast of an RFK Jr./Kid Rock workout video. They mock AOC's Munich foreign-policy “word salad,” praise Tim Burchett's anti-DOJ/uniparty rant, and hammer NYC socialist-style housing proposals (government-funded rent, printing money), warning rent caps and higher property taxes lead to slums. The episode closes by tying inflation to war spending (via a Dave Smith clip) and criticizing Democrats for not releasing Epstein files or pursuing indictments sooner. 00:00 Welcome to Libservative: War Jokes & the ‘12-Day War' Name 02:02 This Week's Rundown: AOC, Aliens, Epstein Fallout & More 02:59 Cutting Back on Booze = Vivid Dreams (Jake Paul vs Tim Pool) 06:36 RFK Jr + Kid Rock's ‘Ultra-Gay' Workout Video Breakdown 11:17 Epstein List: Why No Mass Protests & Why ‘It's All of Them' 18:11 Wexner Deposition Hot Mic & How the Internet Warps Everything 23:50 Accountability Crisis: Monarchy vs ‘Republic, If You Can Keep It' 28:50 DC Is One Party: Shutdown Votes, Schumer/Pelosi, and the Massey Feud 34:47 Iran War Watch: Mission Accomplished Theater & Moving Goalposts 41:08 Regime Change Blowback: Libya, Iraq, Syria as Warnings 42:45 War Isn't a Marvel Movie: The Real Costs of “Quick” Strikes 45:39 Ron Paul Was Right: Predictable Middle East Outcomes & Inflation at Home 46:56 Escalation Signals: Base Evacuations, Military Assets, and Israel's Endgame 49:10 “They Want to Be Freed” Myth: Rally-'Round-the-Flag & Speaking for Other Nations 55:53 From Foreign Wars to Domestic Freedom: Ali, Hampton, MLK & Class vs Race 01:04:43 Pivot to NYC Politics: Zoran Mamdani's Housing Plan Under the Microscope 01:07:18 ‘Housing Is a Right'?

The core message centers on Jesus' teaching in Mark 7 that true defilement comes not from external things entering the body, but from sinful attitudes and desires that proceed from within the heart, including greed (described as an "evil eye"). Greed is portrayed as an excessive, selfish craving for more than needed, which can take root inwardly and lead to harm if unchecked. The sermon contrasts this with the importance of guarding the heart, appreciating God's provision for needs (not endless wants), and maintaining joy through laughter as a healing force. Ultimately, believers are called to prioritize inner purity, contentment, and trust in God over material pursuits, while embracing humor and lightness in life.

Kenzie shares the strange and unsettling story of the prominent Swope family, whose household was rocked by a series of sudden deaths in a very short period of time. The family's trusted in-house doctor insisted the deaths were from natural causes, but the nurses caring for the patients began to question his treatment methods and the care being provided. Was the Swope family simply the victim of tragic coincidence? Or was something far more sinister unfolding behind closed doors?

Send a textREPRISE - Ken welcomes pastor, historian, and special advisor to the President at Baylor University, Dr. Malcolm Foley. Just this month, his new book - The Anti-Greed Gospel: Why the Love of Money Is the Root of Racism and How the Church Can Create a New Way Forward - has just been released. Dr. Foley shares something of his faith and spiritual journey. As an undergraduate at Washington University in St. Louis, he majored in Finance and the Classics. After earning an M. Div. at Yale Divinity School, he completed his Ph.D. at Baylor. His dissertation focussed on the history of lynching in America, and the responses of African American Protestants to the horror of it all. Ken and Malcolm unpack the thesis of his new book: that racism is rooted in greed. They talk about his concept of racialized capitalism, the dominance of white supremacy, the witness of the “Church Fathers” and the biblical passages that deal with greed and wealth. In the 1987 movie Wall Street, Gordon Gekko (played by Michael Douglas) declares, “Greed is good!” Dr. Foley disagrees. He takes a deep dive into the reality of lynching and the use of violence and terror to subjugate black folks. It's a hard look at history. They talk about Malcolm's heroes in the movement: Martin Luther King, Malcolm X (for whom he was named), and Ida B. Wells among many others. Toward the end of their lively conversation, Ken asks Dr. Foley about the current weaponization of phrases like DEI, Woke, and CRT which do not appear in the book. Don't miss Malcolm's response. SHOW NOTES (see links to the book and more about Dr. Foley)Support the showBecome a Patron - Click on the link to learn how you can become a Patron of the show.

When Matt aggressively defends a girl from attackers, it's clear Daredevil's instincts are still right under the surface — even if he's trying to bury that life.  A mysterious demonic force possesses Elektra and turns her against Matt. During their fight, his lost memories begin resurfacing — her name, their past, everything. He frees her through prayer, but the entity warns they're only the first wave. Matt refuses to abandon the priesthood, yet the pull of Daredevil grows stronger.  Online smears claim St. Nick's is a criminal training ground, bringing police and CPS to the door. As Daredevil, Matt traces the lies to Ben Urich and the Daily Bugle — who's shockingly possessed by a demon — and learns about a new gang called The Heat rising under Bullseye. Matt begins realizing these possessions aren't random.  The pattern clicks when She-Hulk is also overtaken. After Matt frees her, Doctor Strange arrives with the truth: the Seven Deadly Sins have manifested as demons, and they followed Matt back from Hell. Strange sends him on a spiritual trial that returns him to New York wearing a white Daredevil suit, symbolizing a holy war rather than street justice.  Trying to stop the spread, Matt clashes with a demon-controlled Wolverine (Lust) in a brutal, city-spanning fight. Instead of winning through force, Matt prays and drives the demon out. Proving faith is his greatest weapon in this new battle.  Meanwhile, gang war erupts in Hell's Kitchen. Daredevil and Elektra confront The Heat and Bullseye, only to discover Wilson Fisk is backing the operation — who is also supernaturally empowered by the demon of Greed, which makes him stronger and more cunning than ever. This was part of a 60th anniversary issue that will be this week's spotlight.  At St. Nick's, Jason — a troubled boy whose father died in a past Daredevil-related disaster — learns Matt's secret and runs away, believing Daredevil ruins lives. Bullseye manipulates the boy while demonic forces begin directly attacking the orphanage.  After repeated setbacks, Matt confronts a painful truth: he's been guilty of greed too, trying to keep both lives — priest and vigilante. Accepting he can't do both, he burns his clerical clothes and offers one final prayer, choosing to serve God the only way left to him — as Daredevil.  As the year closes, Jason is still missing and there's whispers of a monster haunting Hell's Kitchen. Matt is fully back in the mask full time and appears determined to take on whatever is coming.  This Week's Spotlight: Daredevil Volume 8 issues #8 (#670 LGY) from June 2024 “Introductory Rites Part 8” Recap Why We Picked This Story Daredevil Rapid Fire Questions The Takeaway The takeaway is back, just long enough to say comics seem to have hit a new level of popularity post-pandemic, and that popularity has the potential to grow even more.

Gail shares her investigations into meat industry practices, exploring how exorbitant slaughterhouse production line speeds in a consolidated slaughter industry affect animals as they are being handled and killed, and how the proliferation of massive factory farms impacts animals being raised in intensive confinement.She spent decades in the field documenting violations against farm animals and in the office preparing cases and writing about her investigations in articles and books. Her efforts to expose and prosecute animal abusers were often thwarted by network television producers and by law enforcement authorities. Producers considered her findings too disturbing. The law refused to prosecute abusers. Instead they provided cover for the meat industry---a billion-dollar industry.She gives an inside view behind the closed doors of U.S. slaughterhouses and factory farms. She also shared her challenges and successes in documenting and exposing the findings.As a memoir, Out of Sight has been described by reviewers as a “detective story” and a “page turner” that they “can't put down," probably for her personal challenges related to her diagnosis with a rare medical visual condition she shares in our conversation.Gail's web pageThe Humane Farming AssociationHer most recent book: Out of Sight An Undercover Investigator's Fight for Animal Rights and Her Own SurvivalHer first book: Slaughterhouse The Shocking Story of Greed, Neglect, and Inhumane Treatment Inside the U.S. Meat Industry Hosted on Acast.
