Send us a textEpisode SummaryIf you've ever questioned your faith, struggled with loss, or felt the weight of expectations, this episode is for you.Key TakeawaysLarry Camp's journey reflects a deep connection to music and family.Mental health discussions are crucial in high-demand religious settings.Personal growth often comes from questioning /clarifying beliefs. High-demand religions often create an image that members feel pressured to maintain.Women in Mormonism face significant limitations due to patriarchal structures.Community support is crucial for those who leave religious groups.Human connection fosters hope and resilience.Coping with faith and loss requires empathy and understanding.Engaging in fun activities is essential for well-being.Curiosity and learning are vital for personal growth.In this powerful episode of Even Tacos Fall Apart, Larry Camp opens up about his life, his journey with the Mormon faith, and how leaving it shaped his mental health. A lifelong lover of music, sports, and Hawaii, Larry's story is filled with twists and turns that reflect resilience and the importance of forging your own path.Raised in a devout Mormon family, Larry embraced the religion's demanding lifestyle, including serving a two-year mission and adhering to the strict rules.  Larry explained how the church's high expectations and guilt-driven culture often take a toll on mental health, especially for women, who are frequently subjected to intense judgment and impossible standards. One of the most moving parts of the interview came when Larry discussed the loss of his son, Dusty, in 2018. This devastating event, coupled with his departure from the Mormon Church, tested his resilience and emotional strength. He credited his wife of 44 years, Judy, as his rock during this challenging period. Larry candidly shared how the family coped and how his other son, Crosby, continues to struggle with Dusty's death.Larry also reflected on the beauty and challenges of living in Hawaii. Though he adored the Aloha spirit, the financial reality of life on the islands eventually led him and Judy to settle in Southern Utah. His passion for music, sports, and storytelling remains central to his life, as evidenced by his own podcast Nobody Knows Your Story, where he explores the richness of human experiences.Throughout the conversation, Larry stressed the value of community—both in and out of religion. He also shared a poignant insight about personal growth: “You can't change the past, but you can always aim to do better moving forward.”This episode is a heartfelt reminder that mental health journeys are rarely straightforward, but with the right people in your corner and a willingness to seek truth, healing is always possible. Whether you're grappling with faith, loss, or life's uncertainties, Larry's story offers wisdom, humor, and hope for finding peace on your own terms.Invictus  - William Ernest HenleyOut of the night that covers me,Black as the pit from pole to pole,I thank whatever gods may beFor my unconquerable soul.In the fell clutch of circumstanceI have not winced nor cried aloud.Under the bludgeoning's of chanceMy head is bloody, but unbowed.Beyond this place of wrath and tearsLooms but the Horror of the shade,And yet the menace of the yearsFinds and shall find me unafraid.It matters not how strait the gate,How charged with punishments the scroll,I am the master of my fate,I am the captain of my soul.

Send us a text2025 has been a year of relentless waves — uncertainty, upheaval, and unexpected turns.In this episode, co-hosts Belinda Liu and Omar Brownson are joined again by Dr. Paul Wang to explore how Daoist seasonal wisdom can guide us through noisy, volatile times.Together, they reflect on the transition into the metal season in Chinese cosmology, represented by autumn — a time of discernment, boundaries, and filtering out noise so we can hear the deeper signal of what truly matters.From the symbolism of sound and silence to the lessons of animals, oceans, and plants, the conversation reveals how remembrance, grace, and inner stillness help us navigate change.The Gratitude Blooming card they draw — the Poppy (Remembrance) — invites us to pause, honor what we want to sustain, and release what no longer serves.

In this episode, we explore topics like natural lifemanship, heart math and coherence with Paige Deponte, Founder and Executive Director of The Spirit Horse Ranch on Maui.

We discuss these techniques in detail and how they may be of help to  anyone that has experienced trauma.Brought to you by University of Hawaii College of Tropical Ag. and Human Resilience (CTAHR), and the Seeds of Well-being (SOW) Project.

This episode was released on August 15th, 2025, exactly 80 years after the Empire of Japan unconditionally surrendered to the Allies following the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Today, we bring you a largely forgotten story. In 1944, Japan launched its biggest land campaign of the war. It was called “Operation Ichi-Go (Operation #1)” – a massive push through China with half a million troops. It shattered Chiang Kai-shek's armies, changed Allied strategy, and helped set the stage for the ROC's retreat to Taiwan.But the spark for this offensive began not on a battlefield in China, but in what's today Hsinchu, Taiwan. This “big picture” episode has surprise U.S. bombing raids, brutal battles, Roosevelt's strategy meetings in Hawaii, the collapse of China's wartime economy, and lots more twists and turns that would lead to Mao Zedong proclaiming the People's Republic of China in 1949 – and the Republic of China retreating to Taiwan.

In the heart of Oregon, Rose Archer has been building quite a culinary brand.  Her Luscious Supper Club events have been selling out for years, and now she embarks on quite an undertaking, highlighting the best of Bend's culinary scene, the Luscious Bend Food and Wine Experience.  We discuss what's in store at that event, on Sept 27, 2025.   Listen to this episode to follow Rose's fascinating story.  Rose grew up the daughter of two hippies in Hawaii.  She learned to cook, and enjoy the attention that came to her when she made great things.  Things weren't easy, but she had ambition.  That drive took her to culinary school in Portland, where she plotted to cook under some of the best chefs in the world.  She went on quite a journey, one that eventually landed her in Los Angeles, Paris and Italy, where she worked under Massimo Bottura at one of the world's greatest restaurants, Osteria Francescana.   We plan on having Rose back for another episode to fill in the blanks on the journey from Italy to Bend.  She's quite remarkable!!  Subscribe to be notified when that episode is released!   Get tickets here to the Luscious Bend Food and Wine Experience:   https://www.lusciousbend.com/tickets   Right at the Fork is supported by:  Zupan's Markets: www.Zupans.com  RingSide Steakhouse:  www.RingSideSteakhouse.com  Portland Food Adventures: www.PortlandFoodAdventures.com

Also, a look at CBS Sports and their preseason bowl projections. Which teams from the Mountain West did they predict would make bowl games? And a look at the schedule for the Utah Jazz which was released earlier in the day.

In Part 2 of this compelling conversation, Ralph Moore continues his dialogue with John Termini, pastor of The House Established in Waimanalo. This episode digs into the importance of permanence, presence, and place—how buying a home, loving a neighborhood, and honoring the land itself has shaped John's approach to church planting in Hawaii. John also unpacks the vision behind their “rooms,” a deeply relational model of small groups rooted in shared meals and authentic discipleship. It's a beautiful look at how sustainable ministry grows when leaders serve humbly, stay planted, and embrace both local culture and kingdom rhythms.

Send us a textIn the last couple of years, we have started checking off some bucket list cruises. Given that they are bucket list destinations, vessels, or both it is of little surprise that several of those bucket list check offs made it on to this list. And as we have a number of bucket list cruises in front of us, i suspect this list will evolve over time. Like later this year, our next cruise is a bucket list trip to the Panama Canal on Holland America Lines flagship, Rotterdam, and if what I have researched turns out to be the case I suspect it will crack our top ten. This is an absolutely subjective list, not just that it is our opinion only, but offered from the perspective of non-professional reviewers. We don't have a YouTube channel, so we don't go over ships anywhere near as comprehensively as many of those content creators. We just thought it would be fun to do. Exactly half of the top ten were before The Joy of Cruising Podcast was created, and the other half have been since the podcast, and thus we have done a reflections podcast for each of the five on the list that we have done since the podcast started two and-a-half years ago.

In this powerful message, Pastor Alex explores what it means to live by God's holy standards versus man's standards. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 4:9-13 and the story of David's anointing in 1 Samuel 16, we discover why Christians are called to embrace "last place" in a world that prizes first place.Key Topics Covered:* Understanding the difference between holy standards and human standards* Why the apostles described themselves as being "displayed in last place"* The story of David's selection as king and what it teaches us about God's perspective* How to respond to persecution, criticism, and being dishonored for following Christ* The danger of judging leaders and others by external appearances* Living with the knowledge that "earth honors what heaven hates"* The power of communion and covenant communityScripture References:* 1 Corinthians 4:9-13* 1 Samuel 16:1-13* 1 Thessalonians 5:12-13* Psalm 5:5This message challenges believers to examine whether they are living by God's standards or trying to meet the world's expectations. Pastor Alex reminds us that following the crucified Messiah means embracing the same humility and servant-heartedness that Jesus demonstrated.About Amen Podcast: Join Pastor Alex and co-host Lokelani for biblical teaching from House Church in Kauai, Hawaii.

Over 75 years after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor that launched America's entry into the Second World War, one persistent question remains unanswered: "Did President Franklin D. Roosevelt have foreknowledge of the attack---and did he (and his senior military leadership) then withhold that knowledge from his overseas commanders in Hawaii?" Douglas P. Horne, a former Naval Officer who recently completed 40 years of combined military-and-civilian service to the Federal Government, deals directly with this most difficult of all questions about World War II, in the first major "Revisionist" work about Pearl Harbor written in the last decade. Contrary to recent assertions by mainstream historians that the Revisionist hypothesis is now dead, Horne finds it to be more robust than ever. In the first known work that studies FDR's foreign policy "on the road to Pearl Harbor" as a timeline, or chronology (which assesses numerous factors---including codebreaking, diplomacy, military strategy, the unfolding events in Europe, and the personality and words of FDR himself), the author compellingly presents his own unique findings regarding the longstanding allegation by Revisionists that FDR used the impending Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor as a "back door to war." Horne concludes there is, indeed, persuasive evidence that once FDR's undeclared naval war against Hitler in the north Atlantic failed to provide the desired casus belli (which would have allowed him to request a declaration of war against Nazi Germany), then consequently, permitting the Imperial Japanese Navy to attack Pearl Harbor---without providing any specific advance warning to the Hawaiian field commanders (i.e., allowing the Japanese to "fire the first shot" and commit "an overt act of war")---became the last, best chance for FDR to get a united America into the Second World War. FDR's overriding goal throughout 1940-41 was the imperative to get America involved, as a belligerent, in the war against Hitler's Germany, and the Japanese attack accomplished that goal, as Roosevelt knew it would. Both the timing of when FDR apparently received his foreknowledge of the impending attack, and the mechanism by which it was likely delivered, are thoroughly considered in this work. Author Douglas Horne also provides a critical assessment of the most recent Revisionist works, and using a new approach to the "big question" about Pearl Harbor, provides a bold new interpretation of events that will surprise most readers.https://amzn.to/4owLBL2Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

We use the term Milky Way for that glowing arc across the sky. But how people picture it varies from culture to culture. In Sweden, that starry band goes by a name that means "Winter Street," and in Hawaii, a term for the Milky Way translates as "fish jumping in shadows." And: the history of naming rooms in a house. Some old houses have a room off the kitchen with only a sink and cabinets. It's not a kitchen, exactly -- but what's it called? Plus, the colorful flag of one European town features a visual pun on its name. It's a drawing of a hand holding a heart. All that, and head over teacups, humpty-twelve, lowdown, chockablock, overhaul, Desper't Ambrose, honyock, an imaginary boyfriend named Raoul, and so mad I could spit nickels.
