I learned from my counselor that although my feelings in this moment are real and valid, I won't always feel this way. If you've ever felt stuck in a season of sadness, fear, doubt, anxiety, exhaustion, or heartbreak—this episode is for you. We're talking about the powerful truth that emotions are real, but they are not permanent. We share personal experiences, biblical encouragement, and practical tools for navigating difficult emotions without being defined by them. No matter how heavy, complicated and frustrating life might feel today, this isn't the end of your story. You're not stuck. You're being strengthened, shaped, and held by a faithful God. He's got you and He's always working everything together for your good. The truth is: you may feel overwhelmed now, but you won't always feel this way.Disclaimer:Everything we share regarding mental health is based on our own journey.

The new THUNDERBOLTS* assembles a group of leftovers from various MCU stories to face off against their personal failings in a way that's broadly reminiscent of, yet tonally distinct from, the wannabe superheroes of 1999's MYSTERY MEN. It's also tonally distinct from most recent Marvel projects in a way that we all responded to, even if we differ on whether THUNDERBOLTS* is punching above its power class in the metaphor department. We debate that before bringing MYSTERY MEN back in to explore the various power differentials both between and within these two groups of superheroes with self-esteem issues. And in Your Next Picture Show we entertain another hypothetical “misfit superheroes” pairing that Scott argues has a better claim to the “classic” designation than MYSTERY MEN.  Please share your thoughts about MYSTERY MEN, THUNDERBOLTS*, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

In this riveting episode of the Why Intervention Podcast, host Christopher Doyle sits down with Adam Jablin – a man who once orchestrated his entire day around pills and alcohol while running a successful business, and now coaches some of the world's highest performers.   Highlights   The shocking morning-to-night "pharmacist routine" that kept Adam functioning while slowly killing him – and why no one suspected a thing The two words from his interventionist that Adam literally couldn't process (he repeated them FIVE times in disbelief) Why fixing your "outsides" (Adam transformed from the "fat kid" to having a bodybuilder physique) does NOTHING to fix your insides The counterintuitive truth: It's not about the addict hitting bottom – discover who REALLY needs to "hit bottom" for recovery to begin The bizarre "spiritual relationship" Adam had with substances that regular people will never understand (and why it changes everything about recovery) How Adam saw TWO versions of himself during a phone call – and the split-second decision that saved his life The unexpected panic attack that finally made Adam accept he was an addict (it wasn't what you think) How Adam's infant daughter became the unexpected "saving grace" that made intervention possible – for both him and his wife in profoundly different ways The "Superman Effect" – the seductive feeling substances provide that makes quitting nearly impossible (until you understand this) The simple 3-part equation that explains why some interventions work and others fail miserably   PLUS: The surprising connection between Michael Jordan's "love of the game" clause and lasting transformation that Adam uses with his highest-performing clients   This episode offers a rare window into one man's journey through addiction and recovery. Adam's candid sharing about his high-functioning addiction, intervention experience, and transformation provides valuable insights that may help families better understand their loved one's struggles and the potential power of intervention.   Listen now to discover why Adam says, "What I thought was prison turned into spiritual camp" and how this complete perspective shift might be exactly what your family needs.

Notes from James:I've written 25 books—some huge hits, some total flops—and what I've learned is this: anyone can write a book, but not everyone gives themselves permission to start. This episode is the foundation. I break down the mindset, motivation, and structure you need to go from blank page to published book—even if you've never written a word before.So you want to write a book. Where do you even start?

I'll tell you exactly why writing a book is more important (and more achievable) than ever, and how your book can become a business card, a personal legacy, and a gateway to new opportunities—even if you're not a “writer.”I also introduce the one structure that every great story (fiction or nonfiction) follows: the arc of the hero.

In this episode of (insert podcast name here) host Josh Taylor, Chief Marketing Officer at OptSpot, sits down with Donald Miller, CEO of StoryBrand, to discuss how car wash owners can transform their marketing strategies by clarifying their messaging. Miller explains how businesses can position themselves as guides rather than heroes in their customers' journeys. The conversation covers actionable strategies for increasing customer engagement, boosting retention, and driving revenue.Josh Taylor is a marketing strategist dedicated to helping car wash owners grow their businesses through automated customer retention and engagement tools. As a certified StoryBrand expert, he specializes in turning complex marketing messages into simple, high-converting campaigns.Donald Miller is a New York Times bestselling author and marketing expert who has helped brands like Ford, Chick-fil-A, and Intel clarify their messaging and increase revenue. His books include Building a StoryBrand, Marketing Made Simple, and How to Grow Your Small Business. Through StoryBrand, he has helped thousands of business owners cut through the noise and connect with customers.Key TakeawaysThe StoryBrand Framework: Shifting Your MessagingDonald Miller explains how most businesses make the mistake of positioning themselves as the hero instead of the guide.Customers want to be the hero of their own story—your brand should support and empower them.When your messaging focuses on solving customer problems, it builds trust and increases sales.Affirmation Calls to Action: Go Beyond “Join Now”Standard Calls to Actions like "Sign Up" or "Buy Now" aren't enough.Affirmation Calls to Action reinforce the transformation customers will experience, making them more likely to take action.Example: Instead of “Join Today,” try “Start Driving a Cleaner Car Today.”Affirm why washing their car with you was a good ideaValue Stacking: Make Your Offer IrresistibleClearly communicate why your car wash is worth choosing.Layer multiple benefits in your messaging—price, convenience, time savings, and customer experience.The more value you highlight, the more compelling your offer becomes. Tell your customer's story, not yours. It's not the car wash they want…it's the clean car.Clarity is Key: Make Your Marketing SimpleIf your messaging is confusing, you're losing customers.Keep your marketing clear, concise, and repeatable so customers instantly understand what you offer.Training Your Team: Messaging Consistency MattersYour team needs to use the right language when talking to customers.Miller suggests using a simple incentive, like giving team members a dollar each time they use the new messaging.The goal: Create a unified, effective brand voice across all customer touchpoints.

It's the Thursday after the boys dusted off the Vegas Golden Knights, which means a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never is ready to recap yet another Edmonton Oilers series win while also looking back at the week that was. On today's podcast, I recapped last night's Game 5 win, how the Oilers' depth beat the Golden Knights, Kasperi Kapanen's OT winner, and much more.Even though I usually start the podcast with some kind of personal life updates about TV shows, music, or whatever else has been going on, all I wanted to do today was talk about the Oilers. With that in mind, I skipped the usual small talk and dove right into my takes about the boys punting the Golden Knights out of the playoffs in only five games. When I last recorded BLTN, the Oilers had just won Game 1 and had a chance to steal a second game on the road, taking command of the series. Just over a week later, our boys not only got that first job done, but they ended up winning three of the next four. Finally, I wrapped up this week's episode of BLTN with a guest Righteous Sack Beating before wrapping up the podcast with a massive round of voicemails. The voicemail was very busy this week, and the messages were all over the map.

Teaching The Odyssey doesn't have to be stuck in surface-level plot points. It can be the unit where students are guided through their own epic journeys!In this third episode of our Hero's Journey series, we're diving into how we've completely reimagined teaching The Odyssey to ninth graders. If you've been following along, you know we started this series with an overview of using the Hero's Journey as a curriculum tool, then explored what it looks like in middle school using The Hobbit. Now we're shifting the focus to high school—and it's not just about leveling up content, it's about deepening the purpose.We're talking essential questions, student-centered analysis, and ways to move from plot summaries to powerful conversations, like whether or not you can still be a hero if you never leave home. We're also sharing how this unit can end with a project that feels more personal, more reflective, and way more meaningful than a traditional essay or presentation.Resources and Related Episodes:Freebie: Hero's Journey Evidence TrackerEpisode 15, To Write an Essential QuestionEpisode 16, To Find Supplementory TextsEpisode 256, Teaching the Hero's Journey: Dos and Don'ts of Unit DesignEpisode 257, Teaching the Hero's Journey: Studying The Hobbit for Middle School ELASHOW NOTES: https://www.bravenewteaching.com/home/episode258"Send us a message - please include your contact information so we can chat soon!"Ready to make your summer reading program awesome?

Achoo! We're falling in love with the one and only Faith Prince. You Might Know Her From Modern Family, Emily in Paris, Melissa & Joey, Spin City, My Father the Hero, The Last Dragon, and Broadway productions of Guys & Dolls, A Catered Affair, Bells Are Ringing, and BOOP!  Faith talked to us about grounding her character, Valentina, in the cartoonish plot of BOOP!, coping with fame during her star-making turn in Guys & Dolls, and leaning on her co-star Gerard Depardieu in one of her first leading roles on camera in My Father the Hero.  Faith also shared stories from working as a Broadway replacement in the cumbersome costume of Ursula in The Little Mermaid and the notoriously “realistic” production of Anne as Miss Hannigan. All that, plus working with theatre legends like Jerome Robbins, Abe Burrows, Betty Comden & Adolph Green, doing dialect work at Joey Lawrence and Lily Collins, doing her best Cyndi Lauper in cult fave The Last Dragon (and making pals with Berry Gordy, and working with Jean Smart and Mary McDonnell in the short-lived High Society.   This one was a HOOT.  Patreon: www.patreon.com/youmightknowherfrom Follow us on social media: @youmightknowherfrom || @damianbellino || @rodemanne Discussed this episode: Evergreen topics for Anne and Damian: Tyne Daly in Gypsy, Grease, Spice Girls track listings, we look like cats in Heathcliff, the cast of Mannequin 2 aka is it Jonathan Silverman, no it's William Ragsdale in Herman's Head, Sex and the City/AJLT Cynthia Nixon's kitchen tour Tom and Lorenzo and their SJP adventure Plays Valentina in Boop on Broadway We love Dancer/Choreographer Rachelle Rak Coughing as Adelaide was tougher than talking and singing in character voice Bob Saget used his stand-up to differentiate himself from Danny Tanner  Nathan & Adelaide are famously the SOUBRETTES in Guys & Dolls so Jerry Zaks put them forward instead of Sky and Sarah (this changed how future productions positioned the 2 couples)  Jerry Mitchell says it's important to pass the baton down to the next generation of musical theatre stars Arthur Laurents aka “the meanest man in show-business”, Jerry Gutierrez, Abe Burrows, Comden & Green, Sondheim, Barishnykov, Howard Ashman, Jack Plotnick, Tina Landau,  My Father the Hero w/ Gerard Depardieu “Dirty Books” from The Last Dragon / Suzanne de Passe and Berry Gordy produced the soundtrack.

Losing the uniform doesn't mean losing your mission. But for a lot of veterans, the transition out of service feels like being dropped into an unknown world without a map. That's exactly what Rob Sarver and Alex Gendzier set out to fix. After years of interviews with veterans, deep research into military transition, and personal experience, they wrote Warrior to Civilian: The Field Manual for the Hero's Journey-a guide designed to help veterans navigate the mental, emotional, and professional challenges of post-service life. In this episode, they break down the biggest obstacles veterans face-loss of identity, lack of purpose, job struggles, and mental health hurdles-and provide real-world strategies to overcome them. From the wisdom of ancient warrior cultures to the latest research on PTSD, career fulfillment, and personal growth, this conversation is packed with insights every veteran needs to hear.If you're a veteran looking for a blueprint to a successful transition-or you know someone who needs one-this episode is a must-listen.Timestamps: 00:01:00 - Why transition is so hard for veterans 00:07:15 - The biggest mistakes veterans make after leaving service 00:12:45 - Finding purpose in civilian life 00:18:30 - Mental health strategies that actually work 00:25:00 - How to prepare for transition the right wayLinks & ResourcesVeteran Suicide & Crisis Line: Dial 988, then press 1 Warrior to Civilian: The Field Manual for the Hero's Journey: https://www.amazon.com/Warrior-Civilian-Field-Manual-Journey/dp/B0D4WJB7YL/TranscriptView the transcript for this episode.

Oh my God this man is my hero. I'm still stunned by his extraordinary depth, insights, wisdom, generosity and tearful smiling love for his wife. What a privilege and blessing to dive deep into what it truly takes to go beyond defensiveness and create conversations that deepen love when consistent criticism can often lead to divorce. And this still pinching myself conversation, which I would be happy to have for an entire weekend long, we also discussed... -The healing power of 'sharing and caring' sessions to shift people from surviving to thriving and support them in creating a 'conflict free zone' relationship -How when you know you're going to have a 'sharing and caring' conversation, how anger, violence, yelling and sarcasm diminish because you know you're going to be heard -How it's biologically unnatural to receive criticism without defensiveness yet openness and connection can be learned and more importantly practiced to turn almost any relationship around -How underneath anger is vulnerability and how overtime through practice responding with compassion and focusing on appreciation, you can learn to hear behind the cranky words to the heart's unmet needs behind it -I shared how I still haven't been able to get through listening to the Boy Crisis Book because it triggers so much about my own personal situation. Warren invited a follow-up call about this with me, I was floored, humbly grateful, prayers answered in such an unexpected way -He supported my own coaching practice by teaching me that young adults on antidepressants have often not been taught boundaries, limits or delayed gratification. The mothers on antidepressants often feel like a failure when the children don't respect them -We teased about instead of creating work-life balance, he and his wife Liz create work-work balance! One of his latest sharing and caring sessions with her was about taking 3 months off a year! -And as the Divine would have it, we were able to invite her on the After the Show segment on Patreon... there wasn't a dry eye in the house.

Curator Sukanya Rajaratnam and biographer Jon Ott weld together African American culture and 20th century Western/European modernism, through Richard Hunt's 1956 sculpture, Hero's Head.Born on the South Side of Chicago, sculptor Richard Hunt (1935-2023) was immersed in the city's culture, politics, and architecture. At the major exhibition, Sculpture of the Twentieth Century, which travelled from the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York in 1953, he engaged with the works of artists Julio González, Pablo Picasso, and Constantin Brâncuși - encounters with Western/European modernism, that ‘catalysed' his use of metal, as the medium of his time and place.Hero's Head (1956), one of Richard's earliest mature works, was the first among many artistic responses dedicated to the legacy of Emmett Till. The previous year, Hunt joined over 100,000 mourners in attendance of the open-casket visitation of Till, a 14-year-old African American boy whose brutal lynching in Mississippi marked a seismic moment in national history. Modestly scaled to the dimensions of a human head, and delicately resting on a stainless-steel plinth, the welded steel sculpture preserves the image of Till's mutilated face. Composed of scrap metal parts, with dapples of burnished gold, it reflects the artist's use of found objects, and interest in ancient Greek and Roman mythology, which characterise his later works.With the first major European exhibition, and posthumous retrospective, of Richard's work at White Cube in London, curators Sukanya Rajaratnam and Jon Ott delve into the artist's prolific career. We critically discuss their diasporic engagement with cultural heritage; Richard collected over one thousand works of 'African art', referenced in sculptures like Dogonese (1985), and soon travelled to the continent for exhibitions like 10 Negro Artists from the US in Dakar, Senegal (1965). Jon details the reception of Richard's work, and engagement with the natural environment, connecting the ‘red soil' of Africa to agricultural plantations worked by Black slaves in southern America. We look at their work in a concurrent group exhibition at the Centre Pompidou, which retraces the presence and influence of Black artists in Paris, and considers the city as a ‘mobile site', highlighting the back-and-forth exchanges between artists, media, and movements like abstract expressionism. Shared forms are found in the works of French painters, Wangechi Mutu's Afrofuturist bronzes, and Richard's contemporaries practicing in France, Spain, Italy, and England.Plus, LeRonn P. Brooks, Curator at the Getty Research Institute, details Richard's ongoing legacies in public sculpture, and commemorations of those central to the Civil Rights Movement, including Martin Luther King Jr., Ida B. Wells-Barnett, Mary McLeod Bethune, Hobart Taylor Jr., and Jesse Owens.Richard Hunt: Metamorphosis is at White Cube Bermondsey in London until 29 June 2025.Paris Noir: Artistic circulations and anti-colonial resistance, 1950 – 2000 is at the Centre Pompidou in Paris until 30 June 2025.Listen to Sylvia Snowden at White Cube Paris, in the EMPIRE LINES episode on M Street (1978-1997).Hear more about Wangechi Mutu's This second dreamer (2017), with Ekow Eshun, curator of the touring exhibition, The Time is Always Now (2024).For more about Dogonese and ‘African masks' from Mali, listen to ⁠Manthia Diawara⁠, co-curator of The Trembling Museum at the Hunterian in Glasgow, part of ⁠PEACE FREQUENCIES 2023⁠.For more about ‘Negro Arts' exhibitions in Dakar, Senegal, read about Barbara Chase-Riboud: Infinite Folds at the Serpentine in London.For more about Black Southern Assemblage, hear Raina Lampkins-Felder, curator at the Souls Grown Deep Foundation and Royal Academy in London, on the Quiltmakers of Gee's Bend (20th Century-Now).

In this episode, Dr. Keith Rose reflects on his father's life and recent passing. Seeing that society's challenges stem from a disconnect with real history and true heroes—those who paved the way for meaningful progress. He explores why this disconnect matters, how it impacts us individually and collectively, and what we can do to rediscover our real roots and reconnect. /// The Scalpel is proud to partner with Brickhouse Nutrition. Dr. Rose uses and highly recommends Field of Greens. Your purchase through this link supports The Scalpel Podcast. /// https://scalpeledge.com/brickhouse ------------------------------------------------- The Importance of History & True Heroes Understanding Real History: Just as Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Peter, and Paul are revered for their faith and actions in the Bible, we should seek to understand history through the lens of faith. These figures exemplify true heroism—living out their faith and making a lasting impact. Modern Heroes: A Contrast: In today's society, we often celebrate heroes who focus on personal gain or media attention rather than long-term impact. This contrast highlights the need for reconnecting with biblical ideals of heroism. The "Vindication Thirst Trap" (Post from Michael Foster - https://x.com/thisisfoster/status/1919125791402848755) Seeking Validation: Like Proverbs 27:1, which warns against seeking wisdom from the wicked, our pursuit of online validation can be seen as trying to fill an empty soul with temporary comforts. The Biblical Perspective: Jesus teaches that true fulfillment comes from trusting in God and living in humility. Galatians 6:3 emphasizes that we should not boast in flesh but seek to bear fruit through the Spirit. Overcoming Emotional Dependency: By fixing our eyes on God and seeking validation through His Word, we can break free from the trap of emotional dependency. The Impact on Individuals & Society Stagnation and Growth: Emotional dependency and distractions can cause individuals to become stuck, focusing on grievances rather than growth. This is akin to being weighed down by anger or bitterness, as noted in Proverbs. The Call to Maturity: The Bible calls us to mature in our faith, walking in integrity and wisdom. It's about dying to ourselves—letting go of sin and self-centeredness—to live in righteousness. The Connection to Transformation Personal Rejuvenation: Transformation involves a inward renewal, as mentioned in 2 Corinthians 3:17. It's about being changed by God's work in us, growing from glory to glory. National Impact: Similarly, national rejuvenation requires a shift from seeking shortcuts to truth to pursuing integrity and faith. The Bible encourages us to pray for our nation's transformation, seeking a spiritual awakening. The Role of Faith Faith as the Foundation: Biblical Christianity underscores the importance of faith in God over human effort or validation. It's through faith that we find integrity and transformation—walking authentically and being changed inwardly by God. --- Connect with The Scalpel: Website: https://scalpeledge.com Email: KFR@scalpeledge.com TruthSocial: @scalpeledge Rumble: @TheScalpel X: @TheScalpelEdge Instagram: @TheScalpelPodcast

The Superhero Show Show #583STAS Season 4 Finale and The Prowler's IntroductionThe Prowler Makes His Animated DebutOn this week's The Superhero Show Show, the hosts turn their spotlight to Season 4, Episode 11 of Spider-Man: The Animated Series, which introduces a brand-new character to the series: The Prowler. This episode marks a fresh shift in tone, blending social justice themes, redemption arcs, and classic superhero action. The team dives into how this fan-favorite antihero is adapted for Saturday morning television, and whether the episode successfully balances its heavier themes with the high-energy Spider-Man formula.Who Is The Prowler?The hosts start by breaking down the origin story of The Prowler, a.k.a. Hobie Brown, a young inventor turned reluctant criminal who dons a high-tech suit to seek justice his own way. The episode paints Hobie as a victim of circumstance, manipulated by crime boss Richard Fisk into doing dirty work under the illusion of control and upward mobility.The podcast praises the show for introducing The Prowler as a layered and sympathetic character, rather than just a one-note villain. They compare his debut to other redemption-focused characters in the series, highlighting how his motivations and eventual turn toward heroism help him stand out.Power, Control, and Second ChancesOne of the episode's central themes is the struggle for agency. Hobie, disillusioned by a system that continually fails him, turns to technology and crime as a means of reclaiming power. However, once Spider-Man intervenes, a different path begins to open. The hosts commend the show for portraying Spider-Man as both a physical adversary and a moral compass, guiding The Prowler toward redemption.They also discuss how this mirrors Peter Parker's own journey. Both characters come from difficult backgrounds, but their decisions define who they become. The hosts love that this episode serves as a mirror for Peter—offering a “what-if” scenario of how differently things could have gone.Animation Highlights and Series ContextThe animation team also gets a nod from the hosts this week. They note that The Prowler's suit design and acrobatic fight choreography add a visual freshness to the episode. From high-rise rooftop battles to underground lairs, the episode keeps its energy up without losing emotional weight.Contextually, the episode sits between several personal milestones for Peter—his recent engagement to Mary Jane and the aftermath of revealing his identity. The hosts admire how the show can juggle such significant story beats while still making space to introduce compelling new characters.A Hero in the MakingIn the end, Hobie Brown walks away not as a villain, but as a young man given a second chance. The hosts speculate on what could've been if Spider-Man: The Animated Series had continued into another season—would we have seen The Prowler return as an ally? As a standalone episode, it's one of the rare times the series tells a complete origin and resolution in just 22 minutes, and the team finds that both refreshing and satisfying.Final Thoughts on The ProwlerThis episode of The Superhero Show Show is a celebration of strong character work, stylish animation, and the introduction of The Prowler, a character with surprising depth and long-lasting appeal. Whether you're a longtime fan of Hobie Brown or discovering him for the first time, this installment delivers both superhero spectacle and sincere storytelling. Tune in to hear why The Prowler...

The new THUNDERBOLTS* assembles some leftovers from the Marvel Cinematic Universe who are tough to describe as superheroes but nonetheless step up to save the day when their city needs them, which reminded us of MYSTERY MEN and its negligibly powered not-so-superteam. A flop in 1999, the comedy is as chaotic and sloppy as its titular (with an asterisk) group, but that imperfect charm is arguably central to the cult appreciation it's attained since. So this week we're taking a closer look at MYSTERY MEN's small-time wannabe crime-fighters to determine how they fit into the bigger picture of modern superhero cinema. Then in Feedback, we keep the SINNERS conversation going with the help of some prompts from our listeners. Please share your thoughts about MYSTERY MEN, THUNDERBOLTS*, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.
