In this episode of the Preacher Boys Podcast, host Eric Schwisinski sits down with Cara Meredith, author of Church Camp: Bad Skits, Cry Night, and How White Evangelicalism Betrayed a Generation. Together, they unpack the formative – and often fraught – world of evangelical church camps. Cara shares insights from her 30 years in camp ministry and her research, including interviews with dozens of former campers and staff across the U.S.The conversation explores the nostalgia and positive aspects of camp, as well as the darker threads: pressured conversions, purity culture, patriarchy, and the marginalization of women, LGBTQ individuals, and people of color. Cara and Eric discuss how church camp acts as a microcosm of white evangelicalism, often pushing conformity and suppressing individuality under the guise of faith formation. They also reflect on leadership, intent, and the importance of elevating marginalized voices within church spaces.Whether you have fond memories of camp or are re-examining its impact, this episode offers a nuanced look at the complexities, harms, and hopes for change in faith-based youth experiences.Timestamps:00:00 Intro and why church camp is worth discussing04:00 Who the book is for and why it was written07:30 Cara's history and experience in camp ministry10:30 The universal positives: fun, nature, and friendships13:45 The recurring negatives: shame, guilt, and pressured conversions17:30 Purity culture and its impact on campers20:00 The intentions of camp leaders vs. the reality of harm23:15 The business side of camp and conversion26:00 The role of nostalgia and critical reflection29:00 Conformity, identity, and the impact on marginalized groups33:30 “Cry night” and emotional manipulation36:00 Gender roles, patriarchy, and lack of women in leadership41:00 What would change if more women led camps?44:30 Elevating marginalized voices in faith spaces48:00 Reconciling good memories with the reality of harm51:00 Final thoughts and who the book is forSupport the Show:Patreon.com/PreacherBoys✖️✖️✖️If you or someone you know has experienced abuse, visit courage365.org/need-help✖️✖️✖️CONNECT WITH THE SHOW:preacherboyspodcast.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@PreacherBoyshttps://www.facebook.com/preacherboysdoc/https://twitter.com/preacherboysdochttps://www.instagram.com/preacherboyspodhttps://www.tiktok.com/@preacherboyspodTo connect with a community that shares the Preacher Boys Podcast's mission to expose abuse in the IFB, join the OFFICIAL Preacher Boys Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1403898676438188/✖️✖️✖️The content presented in this video is for informational and educational purposes only.

In this episode of Wake Up Look Up, Pastor Zach revisits one of the podcast's most talked-about episodes—Oklahoma's move to put Bibles back in classrooms. He unpacks why every person brings a worldview to their work (yes, even secularism), and argues that Christians have every right to bring their faith into public spaces—just like everyone else. It's not about dominance, but equal presence at the ideological table.Have an article you'd like Pastor Zach to discuss?

Welcome to this month's FETCH First Friday! In this episode, we open a heartfelt and necessary conversation about something we don't talk about enough in the holistic pet care world: the shadow side.From guilt, fear, and perfectionism to the pressure of influencer culture and black-and-white thinking, we explore the subtle (and sometimes not-so-subtle) ways that holistic care can start to feel overwhelming—or even harmful.Together, we explore:
Late last year, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey of almost fourteen hundred teens, ages thirteen to seventeen, to come to an understanding of our teenagers' experiences and attitudes around social media and their mental health. One of the most interesting findings is our teenagers' shifting attitudes on whether or not social media is harmless, or harmful. Back in twenty twenty-two, thirty-two percent of our thirteen to seventeen year olds said that social media sites have a mostly negative effect on people their age. At the end of twenty-twenty-four, the percentage of kids saying the same thing had risen significantly to forty-eight percent. Parents, when our kids themselves are self-reporting that social media is harmful, we need to interpret that as a cry for help. God has given you the responsibility to raise and nurture your kids to spiritual maturity. Perhaps it's time we realize that we must take steps to help them peel away from social media harm.
With JD Vance casting a tiebreaking vote, the Senate voted Tuesday to advance the GOP budget bill. To process this news, Jessica is joined by Galen Druke — the former host of the FiveThirtyEight Politics Podcast, and current host of GD Politics. They discuss the bill that no one seems to like, what lessons the Democrats should (and shouldn't) learn from Zohran Mamdani's win in the NYC mayoral primary, and last week's surprising Supreme Court opinions.

It seems that God is seeking to draw all of us closer to Him. How close are you to the Lord? Where do you have compromises? Where do your personal values counter God's eternal, Kingdom values? To what sin do you easily yield to? Selfishness? Pride? Anger? Gossip? Self-promotion? Lust? Pornography? Fornication? Harmful habits like smoking, alcohol consumption, overeating? Worry? Drug addiction? God is asking us to lay aside distractions before Jesus returns, so that His power and glory can flow unhindered through us. The greatest move of God the world has ever seen is right in front of us! He wants us to get ready for it!

We're continuing our summer throwback series with a powerful episode that's simply too important to leave behind. While we're taking a short break this summer, we'll be resurfacing some of our most impactful conversations — the ones that made us think, challenged the status quo, and sparked meaningful dialogue. Today's rerun is one of those episodes. Originally aired as Episode 72, this conversation with Jessica Setnick dives headfirst into the controversial 2023 guidelines issued by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). These guidelines made headlines — and not in a good way. Recommending behavioral interventions and even weight loss medications and surgery for children as young as 2, 12, and 13, respectively, the AAP ignited a firestorm of concern within the eating disorder treatment community. Jessica, a fierce advocate and long-time voice in the eating disorder field, joins me to unpack what these guidelines really say, why they're so troubling, and how they reflect a deeper cultural problem rooted in weight stigma. We question authority, untangle complex motivations (hello, pharma profits), and explore what weight-inclusive, ethical pediatric care should actually look like. In this episode, we're talking about: Why the AAP's new guidelines on pediatric weight management are sparking outrage in the eating disorder community. The alarming recommendations to introduce weight loss medications by age 12 and surgery by 13. The pervasive weight stigma built into these guidelines, including the problematic use of BMI as a screening tool. How profit motives, particularly from big pharma, may be influencing the creation of these “medical” guidelines. The real consequences of these interventions: malnutrition, stunted growth, cognitive impacts, and the risk of lifelong eating disorders. The false logic that shrinking a child's body will reduce weight stigma and why that belief is not just wrong, but dangerous. The importance of separating weight from health, and why any medical concerns should be treated based on symptoms, not size. How weight changes can be relevant when viewed contextually, but should never be the sole focus of medical intervention. Why trusting your gut and challenging medical advice is not only okay, but it might be necessary for protecting your child's wellbeing. Where to find weight-inclusive providers and what to ask when choosing a new pediatrician. Tweetable Quotes “Anyone who works in the eating disorder field at all – and probably many humans – knows multiple people, if not themselves, who have had failed weight loss interventions when they were children that then resulted in bigger problems.” – Jessica Setnick “The key is not to just single out the big kids. Any kid with an eating disorder should be evaluated. Any kid with a medical condition should be evaluated.” – Jessica Setnick “Shrinking children does not change their medical conditions.” – Jessica Setnick “‘Does my child have a medical condition, or are you saying my child is too big? Because if it's a medical condition, we'd like to get treatment independent of his size. But if you're saying his size is a problem, that's not a conversation I'm willing to have.'” – Jessica Setnick Resources AAP Clinical Practice Guideline for the Evaluation and Treatment of Children and Adolescents With Obesity News release for the AAP new guidelines Understanding Disordered Eating, Ep. 30: Eating Disorders are the Solution Not the Problem with Jessica Setnick, MS, RD, CEDRD-S Jessica on Facebook Jessica on Instagram Jessica Setnick: Understanding Nutrition Jessica's Website Grab my Journal Prompts Here!

Theresa Lau, Senior Policy Counsel, Eradicating Poverty at the Southern Poverty Law Center, visits with Mickey again to discuss the proposed federal budget cuts and their potential impacts on social programs and states. The budget bill passed by the House contains massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations, while making deep cuts to social safety net programs like Medicaid and SNAP that help low-income families. The SNAP (food stamps) program would see $300 billion in cuts over 10 years, leading to 4.6 million people losing benefits. States would be forced to pay 5-25% of SNAP costs, leading to harder decisions about who to cover. Medicaid would see nearly $1 trillion in cuts over 10 years, resulting in 13.7 million people losing health coverage. Work reporting requirements and frequent renewals would also make it harder for eligible people to access Medicaid. The bill also makes it harder for federal judges to hold government officials in contempt for ignoring court rulings, reducing accountability. There is still time to influence the Senate version of the bill and push for fewer harmful cuts. Theresa recommends calling/emailing Congress, sharing personal stories, and supporting advocacy organizations like SPLC to fight these provisions.

When we quit drinking, it's pretty common to pick up another crutch or transfer the addiction to something else like food, work, cannabis, shopping, etc. Your brain still wants comfort, relief, stimulation, and escape and it's easy to use other methods of relief instead of doing the emotional work and not needing relief. In this episode, I discuss the desire to replace alcohol with something else, how we do this in unhealthy ways, and what healthy reward substitution looks like.

New York drug overdose deaths and death rates are on the decline, but with significant disparities and the current, toxic drug supply is partially to blame. Harmful additives like fentanyl analogues, xylazine and medetomidine, among others, have been found in cocaine, heroin, MDMA and pressed into pills. Additives are undetectable by sight, taste and smell which increases the risk of overdose for people who use and may not be aware of what's in their drug supply. This episode features Drs. Sharon Stancliff and Jennifer Love discussing additives commonly found in the New York State supply, including BTMPS, fentanyl analogues, medetomidine, nitazenes and an updates on xylazine.

Giving Yourself Permission: Helpful or Harmful? In this episode, I explore how giving ourselves permission can be empowering, but also risky. I talk about how it's easy to bend rules and take shortcuts when emotions lead the way. I share how true growth comes from thoughtful decisions—ones rooted in faith, values, and honest reflection. I also speak from personal experience, including what I've learned from my patient little dog, Pearl, and how she reminded me that waiting can be wise. Sometimes we need rest. Other times we use “I deserve this” as a cover for avoidance. Learning to check in with trusted mentors or reflect prayerfully can help us pause before taking action that might not serve us well in the long run. Key Takeaways Giving yourself permission can be healthy or harmful—it depends on the why. Skipping small responsibilities can easily turn into disconnection or regret. Wise counsel from friends, mentors, or your faith community helps guide better choices. Patience—whether learned from a person or a pet—can lead to better timing in decision-making. Emotional decisions (especially when tired, angry, or sad) may not reflect your true values. Giving yourself permission should support growth, not serve as a loophole for bad habits. Align your intentions with small actions to keep moving forward, even in hard times. Reflect and Respond Ask yourself: Have you recently given yourself permission to do something? Did it come from a place of peace or from emotion? Was that decision consistent with your long-term goals or values? Final Thoughts Let today be a reminder that permission isn't about guilt or indulgence. It's about responsibility and self-respect. Take care of yourself, speak the truth, and don't be afraid to consult those who care about you. Each small decision can be a mini miracle when it's made with care. Until next time, stay well and keep noticing the little things that move you forward. —Linda
Are you aware of what generational baggage you're lugging around? Are you ready to pin it down and address it head on? Like any other pattern of personal behavior we deal with, we have to be intimately aware of it in order to change it. The main difference here is that these patterns are also repeated in those we were raised with/by. And we are not doomed to repeat what we inherited. That will likely happen on default if we don't intentionally veer off that path. But it's possible! And it happens all the time with people just like you who say, “Enough is enough! This ends right now.” This isn't about blaming those who came before for our problems or shortcomings. It's about freeing ourselves from the burden of their pain. There's a good chance they placed it upon us inadvertently. Even if they didn't, you don't need to be defined by your “generational trauma.” In today's episode, I'm joined by Cynthia Hill, the incredible podcaster behind Random Spirit, to explore what generational trauma actually is, how it shows up, and how we can begin to lovingly disrupt those cycles. So whether your family tree is a little tangled or you're just curious about how much of your reaction to life isn't actually yours, then you'd better stay tuned because you're in the right place.
Today, we're looking at Prime Minister Mark Carney's government surviving its first test, as the Liberal throne speech passed through the House of Commons on a quirk that saw no official vote held — likely because the Liberals would have lost. Plus, Carney's government is trying to pass new border security measures which may come with a catch for Canadians' privacy. And finally, the Waterloo Region District School Board is receiving backlash after it hosted a training session where staff were taught the term "family" was harmful.

Covering the Real Reason Why EMF Harms us, and how we can truly Harmonize the Radiation we are exposed to all day. This brings great, measurable benefits to our bodies. We explore the electrical composition of the body, and how there are balanced electrical fields (like the sun) and imbalanced electrical fields (like EMF), and then demonstrate how Omnia products can reverse many adverse effects in the body that are caused by exposure to wireless radiation. Tim Sandars is the Founder of the Omnia Radiation Balancer brand, which offers the best, most provable EMF Radiation Protection on the market. Tim attended Michael Tellinger's Ubuntu Festival in 2019, where he met a maverick scientist who had a solution to all the world's radiation problems. Tim took some product samples, did some extensive body tests to prove its efficacy and built the Omnia brand around this new technology, which he runs from the UK, where he lives in Devon. Welcome to the Buddhist Biohacker Podcast, where we explore pathways to spiritual awakening, self-healing, and personal transformation. Hosted by Lisa Gunshore, a Functional Ayurveda Wellness Coach, psychic medium, and dedicated spiritual practitioner, each episode blends ancient wisdom and modern insight to guide listeners on their journey of self-realization. In every episode, we delve into four essential steps to inner transformation: Become Aware, Become Wise, Practice, and Trust. Through personal stories, expert interviews, healing techniques, listener Q&A, and weekly tarot or oracle readings, you'll find insights and practical tools for balance and empowerment in every dimension of life. Whether you're seeking to deepen your spiritual practice, navigate life's challenges, or unlock your highest potential, the Buddhist Biohacker Podcast offers a compassionate space for exploration and growth.

A new UC San Diego study finds harmful chemicals in the air. And insurance claims after last week's plane crash could get complicated. Then, a conversation about the impacts of broad government austerity on communities. Also, Voice of San Diego's Scott Lewis says the city's budget fight could be setting up a serious show-down between the city council and mayor. Finally, San Diego Unified is looking for student and family feedback on a proposed policy that would further limit students' access to their cell phones at school.
Harmful algal blooms are wreaking havoc along the California coast, releasing toxic domoic acid that is poisoning marine life. In this episode, we explore how this naturally occurring toxin is causing mass die-offs in sea lions, dolphins, and seabirds, and why climate change and nutrient pollution may be making these blooms worse. You'll hear about the science behind domoic acid, its neurological effects on animals, and how it mimics epilepsy symptoms in marine mammals. Domoic acid poisoning is becoming a more frequent and devastating threat to ocean ecosystems, pushing wildlife rescue centers to their limits. We discuss the broader implications of this crisis on marine conservation efforts and public health, and what we can do to protect vulnerable species as ocean temperatures rise. This is not just a marine science issue—it's an urgent conservation challenge that demands our attention.

In this episode of the Next Level Health & Fitness Podcast, Brad Jensen and cohost Craig Smith dive into Mel Robbins' popular “Let Them” theory that's been making the rounds on social media. You've probably seen it—someone disrespects you or doesn't meet your expectations and the advice is: “Let them.” But is it that simple? We unpack the potential benefits of this mindset—especially when it comes to releasing control, protecting your peace, and avoiding unnecessary emotional burnout. But we also challenge the idea and explore the dangers of oversimplifying complex relationships or bypassing healthy boundaries. This is a conversation rooted in nuance, not black-and-white thinking. We talk about how to discern when “letting them” is empowering… and when it's actually enabling. Even when it comes from someone we admire—like Mel Robbins—we believe it's worth slowing down and looking at the full picture. What you'll hear in this episode: What the “Let Them” theory really means Where this mindset can be empowering and liberating The risk of using it to avoid conflict or ignore hard conversations How to tell when to let go vs. when to lean in Why it's healthy to question even advice from people you respect If you've ever struggled with people-pleasing, setting boundaries, or navigating emotional fatigue in relationships—this one's for you.

Story at-a-glance Women with chronic migraines and body-wide pain were far more likely to have poor oral health, with over half falling into the lowest oral health categories in a new study Specific oral bacteria, including Mycoplasma salivarium and Gardnerella vaginalis, were significantly more common in women who reported frequent migraines and widespread pain Harmful oral microbes don't stay in your mouth; once gum tissue is inflamed, these bacteria enter your bloodstream, disrupt the immune system, and trigger systemic pain A less diverse oral microbiome was found in women with migraines and gut pain, making it easier for pain-triggering bacteria to dominate and inflame nerve pathways Inflammatory chemicals produced by oral bacteria — like calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) — are directly involved in migraine and fibromyalgia, showing how poor oral hygiene can set off whole-body pain responses
