Part 1 of 2 Bestselling author and award-winning journalist Adam Skolnick spoke with us about earning his 10,000 hours, living with yours truly in a trailer in the mountains, and his much-anticipated debut novel, AMERICAN TIGER. I am joined by my co-host Milena Gonzalez. Adam Skolnick is an author and award-winning journalist who covers travel, adventure and endurance sports, and the environment. His work has appeared in The New York Times, Outside, Wired, Lonely Planet, and Men's Health. He's the author of One Breath: Freediving, Death and the Quest to Shatter Human Limits, and the ghostwriter and audiobook narrator of the bestselling David Goggins memoirs, Can't Hurt Me and Never Finished. A frequent contributor on The Rich Roll Podcast, he lives in Southern California where he was born and raised. His debut novel, American Tiger (available for preorder now, out December 2, 2025), “Based on true events, rooted in the stunning Southern California landscape, and populated with vivid characters, [the book] is more than a frantic tiger hunt. It's about a child's quest for self-discovery, her stoic father's struggle to come to terms with their past, and the innate wildness of every living thing.” Ann Napolitano, New York Times bestselling author of Hello Beautiful, wrote that the book, “Gripped me from the first page. Rarely have I read a novel with such an exquisite sense of place.” [This episode is sponsored by Ulysses.

In his closing of the letter to the Galatians, Paul pulls back the curtain and exposes the motives of the Judaizers. They were gripped by the crowd, in love with the praise of people and afraid of persecution. But Paul was a man who had been gripped by the cross and found His everything in Christ. Today, Pastor David Horner closes our series in Galatians with a message from Galatians 6:11-18 titled, "Gripped By The Cross."

BEFORE ANNAPOLIS: 1/4: Sailing the Graveyard Sea: The Deathly Voyage of the Somers, the U.S. Navy's Only Mutiny, and the Trial That Gripped the Nation by Richard Snow (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Sailing-Graveyard-Sea-Deathly-Gripped/dp/1982185449 On December 16, 1842, the US brig-of-war Somers dropped anchor in the New York Harbor at the end of a voyage intended to teach a group of adolescents the rudiments of naval life. But this routine exercise ended in catastrophe. Commander Alexander Slidell Mackenzie came ashore claiming he had prevented a mutiny that would have left him and his officers dead. Some of the thwarted mutineers were being held under guard, but three had already been hanged at sea: Boatswain's Mate Samuel Cromwell, Seaman Elisha Small, and Acting Midshipman Philip Spencer, whose father was the secretary of war, John Spencer. 1841

In this powerful episode of Reading with Your Kids, listeners get a two-part exploration of impactful storytelling for young adults. First, author Mike Bender and illustrator Chuck Dillon dive into "Bored Panda," a delightful children's book celebrating the magic of boredom. They argue that unstructured time isn't something to fear, but an opportunity for creativity. Drawing from childhood memories of limited entertainment, they show how imagination flourishes when kids aren't constantly stimulated by devices. The second half of the episode takes a more serious turn with Stacy Padula and David Gunning discussing the "Gripped" series. This young adult narrative tackles critical issues of teen addiction, focusing on Taylor Duncan, a promising football player whose painkiller addiction derails his life. Inspired by personal experiences with the opioid crisis, Pedula and Gunning are adapting the book series into a television show to raise awareness about substance abuse and mental health among teenagers. Pedula, who began writing the series as a teenager herself, wanted to create realistic stories that address peer pressure, substance abuse, and identity challenges that traditional young adult books often overlook. David Gunning, who lost an uncle to opioid addiction, is passionate about bringing this important story to the screen. Both segments highlight the power of storytelling - whether through humor and creativity or through addressing serious societal issues. The episode demonstrates how books can entertain, educate, and inspire young readers by speaking directly to their experiences. From the playful world of "Bored Panda" to the intense narrative of "Gripped," this episode offers something for every parent and young reader looking for meaningful, engaging content.
It's been a deadly start to the year in Peru. The country has already seen more than 700 homicides: a 20 percent increase compared to last year. These murders are often the result of extortion attempts, a crime that is also on the rise and affects all sectors: business owners, bus drivers and even private schools. To deal with the violence, the government declared a state of emergency in the capital Lima on March 18, but that has done little to help. Across the city, residents are exhausted and frightened.

Kari's Top 5 CliftonStrengths are: Woo, Activator, Communication, Connectedness & Developer In 1998, at her first Cru Winter Conference, Kari stood to her feet as Bill Bright laid out a challenge inviting students to fully surrender their lives to Christ. Though she had no idea what that meant at the time, it launched her toward a life of connecting others to Jesus. Kari spent 15 years with Cru's campus ministry, leading teams in Texas and Oklahoma, but it was her time in Ethiopia that shaped her heart for the world. Gripped by a desire to reach the unreached, she spent five years as a Global Missions Director before joining Jesus Film Project in 2017. (total yrs on staff 24) Kari's love for connecting the body of Christ to kingdom resources along with her experience serving in Global Partnerships, Global Expansion, and Digital Strategies naturally led to her current role as Director of Global Expansion. She brings two decades of experience to her role and a passion for seeing the Great Commission fulfilled. When she isn't on a plane, she enjoys hosting others in her Atlanta home.

"The economic setup is actually pretty good for markets," says Kevin Hincks, but the problem lies in "festering" uncertainty. He notes an oversold NDX as a signal for a reversal, as long as there's more clarity from the Trump administration on tariffs and policies. Until then, Kevin warns investors to brace for volatility.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Joe's life was once marked by anger and rebellion, making him an enemy of God, but God's love transformed him into a man of grace. Gripped by this unconditional love, Joe now dedicates his life to missionary work, reaching out to people in the most hostile and remote regions of the world. By showing love to those who are "untouchable", Joe lives out the radical truth that God loves His enemies and calls His followers to do the same. His story highlights how faith, forgiveness, and courage can overcome even the deepest divisions. Through his ministry, Joe demonstrates that no one is beyond the reach of God's love.Support the showVisit our website for more information on our ministry.https://theunseenstory.org/
Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Mark 6:34-44 - When Jesus saw the vast crowd, His Heart was moved with pity for them, for they were like sheep without a shepherd; and He began to teach them many things. By now it was already late and his disciples approached Him and said, "This is a deserted place and it is already very late. Dismiss them so that they can go to the surrounding farms and villages and buy themselves something to eat." He said to them in reply, "Give them some food yourselves." But they said to Him, "Are we to buy two hundred days' wages worth of food and give it to them to eat?" He asked them, "How many loaves do you have? Go and see." And when they had found out they said, "Five loaves and two fish." So He gave orders to have them sit down in groups on the green grass. The people took their places in rows by hundreds and by fifties. Then, taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, He said the blessing, broke the loaves, and gave them to His disciples to set before the people; he also divided the two fish among them all. They all ate and were satisfied. And they picked up twelve wicker baskets full of fragments and what was left of the fish. Those who ate of the loaves were five thousand men.

"Ever wonder why You are left here in this world as a Christian? Is it to worship God? Is it to be like Christ? Yes would be the right answer to these questions but the reality is that God could take us to heaven immediately after we are saved and we'll do these things perfectly there. We'll be fully like Christ and worship God perfectly. But there is one thing that will not take place in heaven and that is evangelism. Evangelism, which is God's mission given to the Church, is the sole reason why we are here today. Yet, why do we only a few Christians evangelize? What has happened to evangelism in our generation? And... "What if there is a record-setting harvest waiting on you?"In this episode, we have a life-transforming conversation with Lifestyle Cristianity's Founder and featured in movies, "Father of Light", "Holy Ghost" & "Holy Ghost Reborn" - Todd White.
