Why Hank Parker Walked Away From Fishing Fame | 100% Wild Podcast Ep. 431 Legendary angler and TV host Hank Parker joins Matt and Tim on this week's 100% Wild Podcast, powered by DeerCast. From dominating the Bassmaster Classic to starring in outdoor TV since the '80s, Hank reflects on his unbelievable career in the outdoors—and the moment he nearly lost it all in a treestand accident. The guys talk about public perception around hunting (including the blowback from Matt's recent bear harvest), how Ray Scott turned largemouth bass into America's favorite sportfish, and the early days of outdoor television when cameras were the size of briefcases. Hank shares untold stories from the Earnhardt docu-series, reveals what Dale Sr. was really like behind the wheel and in the woods, and explains why he walked away from the peak of fishing fame to be a better dad. This episode is packed with laughs, wisdom, and emotional moments as Hank recounts the fall that nearly ended his hunting days—and how faith, family, and safety gear helped him get back on his feet.

Are you tired of being told your podcast needs a $997 funnel, a slick course, or some guru's step-by-step plan to succeed? In this episode of Podtastic Audio, we're breaking down what really matters in podcasting — and it's not building a sales machine. I'm here to speak directly to indie podcasters who care more about creating meaningful content than chasing dollars. You started your show to share something real — and that's exactly what will set you apart.

In this episode, I'm sharing one of the most honest lessons I had to learn through the unraveling of both my personal and professional life. I read an excerpt from my upcoming book, a moment that captures the reality of losing what I thought I needed and learning to stand on my own. This chapter is messy, vulnerable, and painfully relatable. If you've ever found yourself starting from scratch, questioning your strength, or wondering how the hell you're going to rebuild... this one's for you. Let's talk about what it really looks like to come back stronger.   Sign up for early book access, freebies, BTS action & more Here   Lauren Lefever is a licensed Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty helping people find inspiration in their homes and inside themselves.  For all Real Estate inquires text/call M: 7175197491 E: lauren.lefever@cbrealty.com laurenjohome.com For Staging and Interior Design inquires: dwellerstagedesign.com  JOIN THE HOMEBODY- COLLECTIVE HERE

In this week's unfiltered episode, we start off by discussing an incident involving MDotR, a white British dancehall artist who performed at Balter Festival in the UK. His set didn't go to plan—people in the crowd threw tomatoes and eggs at him, eventually forcing him off stage. Was this simply hate, or did the crowd just not like what MDotR represents? In the second part of the show, we look into the Liverpool incident involving Paul Doyle, a 53-year-old man who drove into a crowd of people on Water Street, injuring over 70 individuals including children. Despite the scale and seriousness of the event, the mainstream media coverage was noticeably soft. If this had been someone of a different background, would the headlines have looked different?In the final segment, we revisit our ongoing conversation about artificial intelligence. Are jobs genuinely at risk over the next few years, or are people exaggerating the threat? We analyse where things are headed and what people need to prepare for in a world being reshaped by AI.Join this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZ_CNKqpdv2h0zd_chBuM2g/joinTo Support our channel join us on Patreon now starting from £1.00 per month for exclusive content every week plus loads of behind the scenes contenthttps://www.patreon.com/TheexpresstruthshowCall in number: 0121 318 2640Instagram: @expresstruthshowMark Hamilton Instagram: @Seamoorecake87Steven Brown Instagram: @Supermn91Theme Song video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WL5FYsZRgGY⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 – Intro3:15 – MDOTR Hit With Tomatoes & Eggs Stage at Balter Festival26:21 – Liverpool Incident: Media Goes Soft on Terror Attack34:26 – Is Artificial Intelligence Really Coming for Your Job?51:06 – Outro

During a divided time in America, our love of sports and fitness cross party lines and can keep us healthy as individuals and bring us together as a nation.  The United States of Sweat is a new series from Choose the Hard Way that features the world's leading political leaders and policy makers sharing stories about what they do to stay healthy, fit and physically active.  When we decided to launch the United States of Sweat, we knew the first guest we wanted to land was an endurance athlete of a different kind, Ambassador Jeff Flake.   Ambassador Flake recently served as U.S. Ambassador to Türkiye and previously represented Arizona in both the U.S. Senate and House.  He's taught at Harvard, Stanford, and Yale, and now leads the Institute of Politics at Arizona State. In 2025, he was knighted by Sweden for his role in securing their NATO accession.  He's also the author of the New York Times bestseller Conscience of a Conservative: A Rejection of Destructive Politics and a Return to Principle. In his spare time, Ambassador Flake likes to maroon himself on deserted islands and survive with little more than a spear and a machete.  Ambassador Flake and his wife, Cheryl, are the parents of five grown children. We first crossed paths in 2018 when then Senators Flake and Chris Coons sent a letter to Strava about our global heat map and data privacy when I was running global communications. That led to a trip to the hill and one of the most thrilling and fulfilling experiences of my professional career that I'll save for another podcast.  My co-host on the United States of Sweat is Jonathan Kaplan. You may know Jonathan as the author of the popular Riding With newsletter and for his legendary performance at the January 2025 Beyond the Peloton x Choose the Hard Way training camp.  But wait, there's more. Jonathan Kaplan is a former political journalist, congressional aide, State Department official, and most recently, comms strategist for the world's largest human rights funder.  He now runs Essington Road Strategies, helping organizations navigate Washington, shape policy, and manage reputational risk. He also writes Riding With, a newsletter and podcast exploring the intersection of pro cycling, media, business, and politics. Find that at ridingwithkaplan.substack.com. For senior execs, pro athletes, and political leaders, podcasts aren't optional anymore—they're mission-critical.

If you're building a career, starting a business, or just trying to grow into the next version of yourself—this episode is for you.I'm Dr. Jason Hall, and today on The Trillium Show, I'm getting personal. We're talking about mentorship: why it matters, how I neglected it in my own life, and the real costs of trying to figure everything out on your own.I've made more mistakes than I can count, many of them because I let pride get in the way of asking for help. But here's the truth: mentors don't see your questions as weakness. They see them as connection. And if you want to build something meaningful, whether that's a surgical practice, a small business, or just a fulfilling life, you can't do it alone.In this episode, I share:The 3 biggest benefits of finding the right mentorWhy going it alone can cost you time, energy, and moneyHow mentorship helps you avoid burnout and isolationWhat I've learned mentoring young surgeons, students, and entrepreneursAnd why asking for help might be the strongest move you makeThis isn't a step-by-step guide. It's a real-world reminder that success is a team sport. So if you've ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or too proud to reach out, I hope this message helps you change that.- Grab a copy of The Art of Aging: Look Great, Not Fake on Amazon - DM me on Instagram @drjasonhall with your questions - And don't forget to subscribe, more solo episodes like this are coming soon.

☞ ABOUT THIS MESSAGE Jim stresses the crucial choice between the narrow path of following Jesus and the broad path leading to destruction. He highlights this as a binary decision, where true fulfillment is found in aligning with Christ, not the crowd. While the wide path appears easier and more appealing, it ultimately leads to despair. He urges reflection and repentance, encouraging the congregation to choose the narrow way and deepen their faith.   ☞ BIBLE APP NOTES https://www.bible.com/events/49434566   ☞ GROUP LEADER GUIDE https://page.church.tech/4f04d495   ☞ NEXT STEPS

You might know him from his Outside column, Sweat Science, or his bestselling book Endure. But today, we're talking about his newest work—The Explorer's Gene—and what it reveals about why we push into the unknown, whether we're climbing literal mountains or trying the weirdest thing on a menu. In this wide-ranging and unexpectedly hilarious conversation, we dig into: The "explore vs. exploit" dilemma, and how it shows up in our running, routines, and lives Why inefficiency is essential to joy and creativity How kids (and ultrarunners) are wired for uncertainty The effort paradox: why hard things feel more meaningful What AI, IKEA furniture, and running have in common Alex also shares how becoming a parent and moving beyond his “Endurance Science Guy” brand shaped his perspective on curiosity, comfort zones, and career detours. Whether you're stuck in a rut, planning your next big adventure, or wondering if it's time to zag instead of zig, this one's for you.

  Part I - "Stone/DiEugenio Interview by Katie Halper". View here. "The Nothingburgers? Nope". Read Here. Jim's latest book "The JFK Assassination Chokeholds: That Prove There Was A Conspiracy" - Find here. National Archives - JFK Files - Read here. Jim recommends "The Man Who Knew Too Much" by Dick Russell. Purchase Book Here Despite new information about Oswald in the recently released JFK files, mainstream media says "nothing new". In the files there is more info about Oswald's 201 file, Mexico City, Helsinki, Castro etc.. When Oswald was released from the Marines it was from a "hardship discharge", using Marguerite's injuries as an excuse. Typically it takes a few months for the marines to investigate hardship claims but Lee's was approved with in just 11 days. When Lee left the Marines, it was 9 months earlier than when he was scheduled to be released. Rosaleen Quinn who dated Oswald while he was in California recalled Lee was more fluent in Russian than she was. After being discharged, Oswald was only in the Dallas/Fort Worth area for 72 hours before heading to New Orleans. Oswald leaves from New Orleans to France, using the same travel agency as the International Trade Mart. Coincidence? Why was Oswald going to Helsinki important? Was it because Helsinki processed visas within 48 hours? After travelling on a freighter to Europe, Oswald goes to Helsinki & stayed at the Hotel Torni. How did Oswald afford this? Oswald participated in a planned, fake defection program. Without government assistance, how would he afford a 4 star hotel? The Warren Commission avoided going into the intricate details of Oswald's movements and activity in Helsinki. WC investigator David Slawson was definitely curious about Oswald's trip to Helsinki. The CIA and FBI were the main sources of information for the Warren Commission. In 1963-1964, early investigators such as Mark Lane & Joachim Joesten who suspected CIA and government involvement. CIA 1971 memo - appears to have been debate in the CIA whether Kostikov was ever involved in Dept 13. Have you read the Lopez Report? Read here. If Oswald was in Mexico City, why isn't there any photographs or video of Oswald going into the different embassies? Why has the CIA never been able to produce a tape of Oswald's voice? On the Nov 22nd the CIA sent a tape of what they said was Oswald's voice to the FBI interrogating Oswald in Dallas. David Atlee Phillips put out a cover story - all of the Oswald tapes had been destroyed. The Lopez report contradicts this. Dan Hardway and Edwin Lopez wrote up bills of indictment for both Phillips and Anne Goodpasture Anne Goodpasture was Winston Scott's exec assistant. Pulse camera outside of the Cuban Embassy, activated by the door of the Cuban consulate opening & closing. Such a sensitive camera, yet no photos of Oswald? David Phillips claimed the camera was "out that day". The CIA did not want this information included in the volumes of the HSCA investigation. Was the whole Mexico City event a charade? Was the story about Kostikov the capper on the charade with Oswald? Was Oswald working with Kostikov and at the direction of the KGB? The KGB may have hired Richard Case Nagell to find out who was behind the pending plot to kill JFK. Jim recommends watching the 2014 AARC interview with Dan Hardway & Edwin 'Eddie' Lopez. Watch here. Hardway and Lopez worked out of CIA headquarters reviewing files and information until Joannides complicated matters. After Joannides got involved in hampering the investigation, files would be slow and redacted. The HSCA was shut down at the end of 1978 and decreased to a skeleton crew prior to publishing. What wasn't released in the HSCA volumes, was to be classified until 2029. Oliver Stone's "JFK" changed all of that.

We I frist met Phil Long, I was tasting at the African American Association of Vintners and we just happen to stumble across the fact that we literally grew up around the corner from each other in Inglewood, California. Granted that was many years ago, and much has changed in society since those days, but we both ended up in the wine trade and found a mutual connection on both levels. Phil Long might be the only winemaker who can turn a tale about drafting homework into a master class on the thousand steps of wine. Pour a glass and get ready to uncover much more than the typical vineyard origin story—this episode offers a rare glimpse into the making of a modern winemaker. Listeners will discover how Phil's Southern California roots, his early career as a creative architect, and a fateful bottle of Boone's Farm all wove together into a relentless curiosity for wine that ultimately led him, step by step, into the heart of an industry both old and new. You'll learn what truly defines a winemaker—not the first three steps of fermentation, nor even the next 100, but the thousand intricate choices, failures, and stubborn bits of creativity that make a bottle personal. Phil peels back the mystique of wine, sharing both the obstacles and quirks—from launching Longevity Wines out of a garage to landing a partnership with the Franzia family and navigating the complicated terrain of distribution and branding. For those curious about the intersection of culture and wine, Phil opens up about building community as president of the Association of African American Vintners, showing that passion, persistence, and collaboration are the real keys to progress. You'll also come away with an insider's perspective on innovation and authenticity in a business shaped by shifting trends and timeless tradition—why a wine experience is more than a beverage, and how the memories, people, and places around the glass matter as much as what's in it. Whether you're wondering about non-alcoholic wine, the realities of vineyard margins, or simply want to know how someone goes from drafting tables to barrels, this conversation will change how you see every sip. ✅ Ever wondered how a winemaker turns a three-step garage project into an award-winning, internationally recognized label? ✅ Phil Long of Longevity Wines reveals the thousands of steps (and secrets) that define a true winemaker. ✅ Host Paul K sits down with Phil to talk about everything from humble beginnings in Inglewood, breaking barriers in the wine industry, and building a brand that's grounded in authenticity and family. ✅ If you think wine is just a drink, get ready to discover why it's truly an experience—and how perseverance and passion can shape an entire legacy.
