Director Michael Gier talks about his new movie "The Heroism and Resiliency of 9/11: From Tragedy to Triumph" for the 25th commemoration of the attacks on September 11th, narrated by Gary Sinise. Michael's documentary tells a different kind of 9/11 story -- one that honors the tragedy of the day by focusing on the inspiring human response that followed. Michael shares unknown stories of the first responders, survivors, families, public servants, and everyday Americans whose courage created hope in the aftermath of the attacks, including the remarkable, unplanned boatlift of over 500,000 people from southern Manhattan.Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com
Dr. Olaf Kroneman September 11th, 2026 | 3 PM EST Detroit HeroicMedicine • History • Women's Voices • Moral Courage • Patient Advocacy Title: DETROIT HEROIC: When Doing What Is Right Comes at a Cost Subtitle:Medicine, Misogyny & Moral Courage — Who Speaks Up When the System Fails the Patient? On September 11th at 3 PM EST, Teatime with Miss Liz welcomes Dr. Olaf Kroneman, a physician in private practice in the Detroit metropolitan area and author of the historical thriller Detroit Heroic. Set against the 1967 Detroit rebellion, Detroit Heroic uses fiction to examine difficult questions surrounding medicine, women's healthcare, racial injustice, institutional power, patient advocacy and what happens when professionals must decide whether to conform to a flawed system or challenge it. The title speaks directly to the book's central idea: What does it actually mean to be heroic? For Dr. Kroneman, heroism isn't simply an extraordinary act. It can be the courage to remain morally grounded when doing so carries personal or professional consequences. At the center of the book's cover is another important Detroit story—the Spirit of Detroit, sculpted by Marshall Fredericks and dedicated in 1958. Dr. Kroneman has a personal connection to the sculptor: Fredericks and his Danish immigrant grandfather were close friends, and Fredericks delivered the eulogy at his grandfather's funeral. The statue, the city, the physician, and the woman represented on the cover come together to frame a larger conversation: Who gets heard?Who gets believed?Who gets protected?And what responsibility do we have when a system stops seeing the human being standing in front of it? TEATIME INTRODUCTION Welcome to Teatime with Miss Liz, where we don't shy away from difficult history or difficult questions. Today we're going to Detroit. Not simply Detroit as a location—but Detroit as a character.A city of struggle.A city of resilience.A city of history.And a city that has deeply influenced my guest, physician and author Dr. Olaf Kroneman.His historical thriller, Detroit Heroic, takes us into the world of medicine during the turbulent period surrounding the 1967 Detroit rebellion. But this isn't only a conversation about the past. We're going to talk about what happens when patients—particularly women and people from marginalized communities—feel dismissed, disbelieved or unheard. We're going to discuss medical authority, institutional culture, moral courage and the responsibility that comes with caring for another human being. And we're going to ask a question that reaches far beyond medicine: When you know something is wrong, are you willing to stand against the system you're part of? Dr. Kroneman, welcome to Teatime with Miss Liz. Grab your cup, and let's dig deep. Today's conversation isn't about saying every healthcare professional fails their patients or that every institution is broken. It's about something more important: Accountability. Medicine is built on knowledge, science and expertise—but healthcare happens between human beings. And when someone walks through a medical door frightened, hurting or searching for answers, listening matters. History matters too. Because examining where institutions failed people isn't about remaining trapped in the past. It's about asking whether we've learned enough from it to do better in the present. Detroit Heroic challenges us to think about the people who choose integrity when conformity would be easier—the people willing to ask questions, listen more carefully, and speak when silence would protect them. Dr. Olaf Kroneman, thank you for bringing medicine, history, Detroit and this conversation about moral courage to my table. “Heroism isn't always saving someone in a dramatic moment. Sometimes it's believing the person everyone else dismissed—and having the courage to speak when silence would be easier.” — Miss Liz#TeatimeWithMissLiz #DetroitHeroic #PatientAdvocacy #WomensHealthAwareness #MoralCourage

The next guest on The Strategerist is Chris Meek, co-founder of SoldierStrong, a nonprofit he created in the aftermath of the September 11th terrorist attacks. Chris is also a 2018 Stand-To Veteran Leadership Program scholar, and more recently, a filmmaker. He joined us to discuss what it was like being in New York on 9/11, how he leads SoldierStrong, and his documentary, 'The Heroism and Resiliency of 9/11” hopes to transform “never forget” to “we remember.”
Nearly 25 years later, there are still stories from September 11th that many Americans have never heard. Award-winning director and producer Michael Gier set out to tell those stories in his documentary, The Heroism and Resiliency of 9/11: From Tragedy to Triumph. Rather than focusing solely on the devastation of that day, Michael turns the lens toward the extraordinary courage, compassion, and resilience that emerged in the middle of it. Michael joins host Chuck Thuss to share some of the lesser-known stories featured in the film, from previously homeless men helping injured Wall Street workers to the massive boatlift that evacuated more than 500,000 people from Manhattan. He also recounts the bravery of rescuers who refused to leave fellow first responders buried beneath the rubble, even when their own lives were at risk. But this conversation isn't only about looking back. Chuck and Michael explore what September 11th can still teach us about moving through tragedy, showing up for one another, and making a difference in the lives of the people around us. You may never face a moment that makes history, but you still have the opportunity to be there for someone who needs you. Guest Bio Michael Gier is an award-winning director and producer who has directed and produced hundreds of projects, including TV commercials, internet videos, corporate videos, short films, feature films, and documentaries through Gier Productions, LLC. In 2021, Michael released two award-winning films, Wounded Heroes and Healing the Heroes of 9-11. His latest documentary, The Heroism and Resiliency of 9/11: From Tragedy to Triumph, shares powerful and lesser-known stories of courage, heroism, and resilience surrounding September 11th. The film has already received multiple Best Documentary awards at film festivals, which Michael discusses in the episode. You'll hear About Why Michael chose to tell a different side of the 9/11 story Lesser-known acts of courage and compassion that emerged from the tragedy The incredible rescue of more than 500,000 people from Manhattan by boat What survivors and first responders taught Michael about resilience How small acts of service can make an enormous difference in someone's life Chapters 00:00 Welcome and Introduction 01:45 Creating The Heroism and Resiliency of 9/11 04:15 Finding Hope and Strength Within Tragedy 08:15 The Unsung Heroes and Stories Most People Never Heard 12:45 Extraordinary Acts of Service on September 11th 16:15 The Boatlift, Flight 93, and Stories of Courage 19:00 What Michael Learned About Heroism 22:15 The Lasting Impact on Survivors and First Responders 26:15 Remembering How America Came Together 29:15 Why Small Acts of Kindness Still Matter 31:15 Where to Watch the Documentary 32:30 What 9/11 Teaches Us About the Human Spirit 35:30 Chuck's Challenge Chuck's Challenge This week, Chuck challenges himself, and all of us, to find one or two ways each day to make a positive impact on someone else's life. It doesn't have to be a grand gesture. Open a door. Help someone who is struggling. Give something you have to someone who needs it. Reach out. Show kindness. The stories in this episode remind us that we may not always realize how much a seemingly small action can mean to someone else.

A weathered diary,…a chance discovery…and God opened a way. Jenny's guest Pastor Chris Edmonds, author of No Surrender: The Untold Heroism of Roddie Edmonds. In 2013 Chris learned of his father's extraordinary heroism from a former POW. He shares the remarkable story of how his father's courage, faith and unwavering conviction saved more than 200 Jewish American soldiers at the risk of his own life, while a POW in Nazi Germany. When the German Commander ordered him to identify the Jewish soldiers, Master Sgt, Roddie Edmonds stood firm and replied, "We are all Jews." One ordinary life, faithfully following Christ becomes extraordinary and impacts generations today. His dad was posthumously awarded The Medal of Honor, our nation's highest military honor in the United States. He was the first American soldier recognized by Yad Vashem in Israel as a Righteous Among the Nations for saving Jewish American servicemen at Stalag IXA. He never spoke about what happened, taking the story to his grave in 1985. Today, Master Sgt. Roddie Edmonds is honored on the East Tennessee Veterans Memorial at World's Fair Park in Knoxville.

SUMMARYJacob and Evan revisit Mercy Mission and Nomad Droids, two of the most overlooked episodes in The Clone Wars, to determine whether they're unfairly dismissed or simply forgettable. While the humanitarian premise and expanded look at the galaxy offer some interesting ideas, both hosts agree the execution leaves much to be desired.The discussion explores whether R2-D2 and C-3PO demonstrate true heroism, how much these episodes actually contribute to the wider Clone Wars narrative, and whether the world-building is enough to justify what many fans consider filler. Along the way, they compare these episodes to stronger droid stories, discuss continuity references, and debate whether these episodes deserve a place in a first-time viewing order.KEYWORDSClone Wars Mercy MissionClone Wars Nomad DroidsR2-D2 Clone WarsC-3PO Clone WarsClone Wars filler episodesClone Wars Season 4Mercy Mission reviewNomad Droids reviewClone Wars podcastStar Wars world buildingClone Wars episode rankingStar Wars discussionTIMESTAMPS00:00:06 - Introduction and first impressions of the arc00:01:15 - Why these episodes are so often forgotten00:03:34 - The Patitites and the strange world of Balnab00:06:50 - Why Nomad Droids feels repetitive00:07:46 - Comedy sponsor break: Republic GPS00:08:37 - Does this arc prove heroism isn't limited to Jedi and clones?00:11:24 - Heroism through luck vs intentional sacrifice00:13:00 - What these episodes say about civilians during the Clone Wars00:17:07 - Are these episodes unfairly dismissed or just filler?00:21:31 - Would you recommend this arc to first-time viewers?00:24:51 - Is R2-D2 the most consistently competent Star Wars character?00:26:01 - Continuity references and fun production trivia

Mariano Rivera — the greatest closer in baseball history — was willing to teach his rivals exactly how to throw his most devastating pitch. He knew that, regardless of their strength or skill, unblessed they were blessed by God to throw they wouldn't be able to. The Stoics understood it. They called it "amor fati" — love of fate. There are things within our control and things outside our control. The wise person focuses entirely on what's within their control and releases entirely what's outside. In this episode Raghunath and Kaustubha explore how doing one's best and then accepting one's fate is favorable for Bhakti, alongside the Bhagavad-gīta's five factors of action and the Mahabharata's story of Drona, who taught the military arts to the student who he knew was fated to kill him.

War Hawks demand blood. But on a blood-slick deck, four words become legend: Don't give up the ship.The War of 1812 is often dismissed as a minor conflict, overshadowed by the Revolution and the Civil War. But this overlooked war forged American identity through fire and defiance on land and sea. Join us as we launch our two-episode exploration of the War of 1812. In this first installment, we experience the gathering storm of grievances - from British impressment and economic strangulation to frontier clashes with Tecumseh's confederacy - that propelled a young nation into battle, the early disasters that followed, and the pivotal moment on Lake Erie when the tide of the war turned.

[REBROADCAST FROM January 26, 2026] On January 28, 1986, a frigid cold day with an icy blue sky, the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded just 73 seconds after launching from Cape Canaveral, Florida. The accident killed all seven crew members aboard and was the first fatal in-flight spacecraft disaster in NASA's history. For many, the explosion came as an absolute shock. Millions of people were watching live, including school children who were especially eager to catch a glimpse of Christa McAuliffe, a teacher from New Hampshire and the first civilian in space. On this episode, we remember the Challenger tragedy with author Adam Higginbotham who details what went wrong and the aftermath in his book, Challenger: A True Story of Heroism and Disaster on the Edge of Space.

Episode 81 of What Gives?—the Jewish Philanthropy Podcast from Jewish Funders Network, hosted by JFN President and CEO Andrés Spokoiny. In this episode, Andrés speaks with Dr. David Bryfman, CEO of The Jewish Education Project and author of the new book Heroism and Hope: Recharging Israel Education in a Post-October 7 World. David and Andrés ask whether October 7 genuinely changed Jewish education or simply forced into the open questions many educators had been wrestling with privately. David makes a provocative case: when adults demand to know why their children don't feel about Israel the way they do, they often reveal more about themselves than about the education their children received. He argues that young people need to arrive at their own understanding in their own way and their own time, even when they land somewhere different from their parents, while insisting that Israel belongs at the core of serious Jewish education rather than at its margins. Also discussed are the points where Andrés and David part ways, including Andrés's discomfort with the idea that education should stay neutral about the conclusions students reach, and David's argument for teaching the hard parts of Jewish history honestly so that students don't encounter them for the first time on a hostile campus. Take a listen.

Author Neil Adams joined me to discuss his book, From the Pile, and the extraordinary life of his close friend Michael Dorian.During our conversation, Neil reflected on their nearly 30-year friendship, Michael's childhood trauma, HIV diagnosis, search for love and acceptance, and his determination to build a better life. We also discussed Michael's decision to run toward Ground Zero on September 11th to help others, the lasting health consequences he faced, and the years-long effort to uncover footage proving he had been there.Neil shared the touching story of introducing Michael to Aaron, who would become Michael's partner and fiancé, and reflected on the resilience, courage, and compassion that defined Michael's life.It's a moving conversation about friendship, redemption, service, and the legacy of a man whose story deserves to be remembered.
In late December 1969, five accomplished young mountaineers set out to make history on Glacier National Park's highest peak—a 4,000-foot wall of rock and ice that had never been climbed in winter. They were skilled, prepared, and determined. When they failed to return, a desperate search began in brutal conditions, with windchills plunging to minus forty-four degrees. What searchers eventually found would mark the worst mountaineering disaster in Glacier's history—and leave questions that linger to this day. This is the story of the Mount Cleveland Five, and the families, rescuers, and fellow climbers whose lives were forever changed. 00:39 Disaster Strikes Intro 01:21 Body Bags Ominous Cold Open 03:03 Meet The Mount Cleveland Five 07:32 Why Cleveland North Face 09:17 Brother Sits It Out 10:12 Ranger Warning At St Mary 12:25 Crossing Waterton Lake 15:30 Silence Then Missing 17:11 Search Begins Base Camp Found 18:09 Avalanche Evidence And Photos 20:48 Search Called Off 22:37 Spring Thaw Recovery 26:25 Aftermath Burials Memorials 28:51 Did They Summit Mystery 31:20 Jean Kler Funeral Courage 32:53 Legacy Closure And Safety 34:51 Final Thoughts And Resources Listen AD FREE: Support our podcast at patreaon: http://patreon.com/TheCruxTrueSurvivalPodcast Email us! thecruxsurvival@gmail.com Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thecruxpodcast/ Get schooled by Julie in outdoor wilderness medicine! https://www.headwatersfieldmedicine.com/ References: "In Search of the Mount Cleveland Five" by Terry G.

Harry Potter's heroism is contagious — in the best way and the most literal one. This episode tackles the back half of the Harry Potter survey, working through good half-blood, good Gryffindor, hero, and free will with listener data and a few new voices who snuck into the results. Along the way, the conversation turns into something bigger: why fans are quick to excuse Draco Malfoy's worst behavior as a product of his upbringing, quick to hold Ron Weasley fully accountable for his, and somehow never apply either lens to Harry, even though all three boys are the same age, shaped by the adults around them, and navigating circumstances more similar than the fandom likes to admit.Behind the Cloak Pre-OrderPatreon
In this episode of Wake Up, Look Up, Pastor Zach reflects on the real cost of standing up for what is right in a world where speaking out can carry serious personal consequences. He considers the tension faced by athletes under pressure and connects it to the story of Esther, who risked everything for the sake of her people. Through that lens, he points to the example of Jesus and challenges us to live with integrity even when it comes at a personal cost.Have an article you'd like Pastor Zach to discuss?

After October 7, educators were asked to guide students while still making sense of their own evolving relationship to Israel and to Jewish peoplehood. What does it mean to teach when the ground beneath the curriculum is still shifting? What has changed in Israel education? What do educators need to hear? As season of six of Adapting comes to a close, Samantha Vinokor-Meinrath interviews David Bryfman on what's changed in Israel education after October 7, drawing on ideas from his new book, Heroism & Hope: Recharging Israel Education in a Post-October 7 World. Together they reflect on how educators and communal leaders have had to navigate the emotional and ideological terrain since October 7, and how history and memory are being shaped in real time. Sharing personal anecdotes and powerful insights, Bryfman articulates a vision of Jewish learning rooted in pride, inquiry, and student agency, offering language for education that makes space for reflection before it demands answers.

Was it one of the war's most memorable feats of valor or an act of desperation, even madness? In Out of the Sky: Heroism and Rebirth in Nazi Europe (Spiegel & Grau, 2026), Matti Friedman unravels one of the strangest episodes of World War II: In 1944, a team of young women and men who had escaped the Holocaust made the inconceivable choice to parachute back into Nazi-occupied Europe under the cover of a British military operation. Yet by the end of the mission, not a single Nazi was harmed and not a single Jew was saved, and many of the parachutists died in the process. Even so, some of their names would become legendary, especially that of twenty-three-year-old Hannah Senesh, the author of the beloved Hebrew song “Eli, Eli.” Their story would become one of the young state of Israel's founding myths—but what exactly was the mission, and what had the parachutists actually accomplished? What made them heroes? Using thousands of original documents from once-secret files, manuscripts, memoirs, and unpublished letters, Matti Friedman follows four of the parachutists from the spring of 1944 to the operation's dramatic end that winter. In Out of the Sky, he tells the gripping and surprising tale of a forgotten moment, demonstrating how storytelling itself can have a power even greater than warfare. And in exploring the line between myth and reality, heroism and futility, he creates an argument that has resonance in our own time. Learn more about your ad choices.

Eighty years after the end of World War II, parts of its history remain shrouded in secrecy and political convenience. In this episode of *Now I've Heard Everything*, Bill Thompson sits down with Jenny Chan, co-founder and Director of Pacific Atrocities Education. Inspired by a surprising discovery after her grandmother's passing, Jenny has dedicated her life to uncovering the forgotten history of World War II's Pacific theater -- where an estimated 40 million lives were lost. From the harrowing survival stories of Filipino guerrilla resistance fighters and "comfort women" to the unthinkable atrocities committed by Imperial Japan's Unit 731, Jenny exposes the brutal realities of total war on civilian populations. She also sheds light on the shocking post-war immunity deal where the U.S. government purchased biological warfare data from war criminals for millions of dollars. Tune in for a powerful conversation about historical erasure, the agonizing bureaucratic fight to declassify 80-year-old documents, and what happens when scientific advancement completely abandons human ethics.Chapters:00:17 The Discovery That Changed Everything 01:17 The Radical Erasure of the Pacific Theater 03:16 Hellships and Friendly Fire 07:23 The Bureaucratic Fight for Declassification 09:14 Heroism and Horrors: Guerrillas and Comfort Women 13:16 The Politics of Post-War Justice 14:01 Unit 731: Science Without Ethics 17:46 Bought Immunity: The U.S. Deal with War Criminals 21:51 Final Thoughts: War is a Nasty Business 23:07 Where to Find Pacific Atrocities EducationGuest InformationJenny ChanWebsiteSocial:YouTube Facebook Instagram TikTok1987 interview with Nien ChengEasier, more confident everyday conversation: "The Everyday What To Say"For more intriguing and engaging interviews each week, subscribe now on:Spotify Apple Podcasts YouTube

Admiral James Stavridis highlights the heroism of Doris "Dory" Miller and Commander Ernest Evans. Despite the segregated Navy of 1941, Miller displayed immense courage at Pearl Harbor by manning an anti-aircraft gun and rescuing shipmates. His legacy is honored by the naming of a future aircraft carrier. Commander Ernest Evans is celebrated for his "last stand" during the Battle of Leyte Gulf. Leading the destroyer Johnston against a massive Japanese fleet, Evans engaged in a heroic bluff that forced the enemy to retreat. Though Evans was lost, his decisiveness protected the landing forces and earned him the Medal of Honor. (4/4)US CAIRO
New Discourses Bullets, Ep. 156 Central to the psychological and social construction of both Fascists and Nazis are the concepts of heroism and honor. These sound good, like sound foundations of society. Then again, from the Marxist Left, so do fairness and justice. In both cases, though, we find a rule of totalitarian systems: the virtues are defined in terms of the totalitarian project itself. Under Fascist and Nazi thinking, heroism and honor are comprehensible only in terms of one's duty to the state, which should be a matter of personal honor and heroic self-sacrifice for the collective. In this episode of New Discourses Bullets, host James Lindsay pulls back the veil on this Fascist dimension of nice-sounding but deceptive language. Join him for a clarifying explanation.
