How is it, Samuel Johnson famously asked on the eve of the Revolution, that Americans could so vociferously demand freedom for themselves while so conspicuously continuing to deny it to those they held in slavery? With Seeking the High Ground: Slavery and Political Conflict in the British Atlantic World (U Virginia Press, 2025), Matthew Mason helps answer that piercing question. As he shows, the language of slavery and freedom had long suffused Anglo-American political debates in the eighteenth century, with the Revolution emerging as one particularly hyperdramatic act during which combatants on both sides of the war of words connected the idea of slavery to the headline issues of the day. Mason details how Patriots and Loyalists alike deployed the rhetoric of slavery in their debates about all the crucial questions of the day, including republicanism, taxation and representation, and—by claiming the moral high ground—the nature of the Revolutionary War itself. These debates left complex rhetorical and political legacies for those seeking to abolish and defend slavery in both the new US and the remaining British Empire.“No one understands the politics of slavery and the rise of antislavery better than Matthew Mason. This is because he knows the original sources and deeply understands what historians have done and where they've taken detours. He keeps his eye on the big picture and his feet on the ground even while explaining the achievements and the limits of those who reached for the higher ground.”- David Waldstreicher, The Graduate Center, City University of New York, author of The Odyssey of Phillis Wheatley: A Poet's Journeys Through American Slavery and Independence“Matthew Mason's important new book cuts through some of the sharpest historiographical debates on the role of slavery and abolition in the Revolutionary Era to reveal a textured and dynamic portrait of the transatlantic political world.”- Rachel Shelden, Pennsylvania State University, author of Washington Brotherhood: Politics, Social Life, and the Coming of the Civil War Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Daily Soap Opera Spoilers by Soap Dirt (GH, Y&R, B&B, and DOOL)
Click to Subscribe: https://bit.ly/Youtube-Subscribe-SoapDirt Bold and the Beautiful spoilers suggest that Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) is grappling with a secret that could jeopardize her relationship with Finn (Tanner Novlan). The recent revelation of her one-night stand with Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) and her subsequent pregnancy are the foundations of the fake surrogacy scheme that she and Carter are embroiled in. However, the tension mounts as Finn, who has been left in the dark about the true nature of the situation, is headed to a medical conference where potential drama awaits him. B&B spoilers reveal that Steffy, consumed by guilt, is battling internal turmoil over her decision to lie to Finn and everyone else for the rest of her life. Meanwhile, Finn, unaware of the truth, is dealing with the shock of Steffy's proposed surrogacy for Carter and Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire). He is uncomfortable with the idea of Steffy being an egg donor and tries to dissuade her, but his pleas fall on deaf ears. Spoilers for Bold and the Beautiful see that the situation takes a twist when Steffy encourages Finn to enjoy himself at the conference, sparking speculation that Finn could unwittingly follow in Steffy's footsteps and have a one-night stand of his own. The possibility of a surprise pregnancy from this fling adds a layer of irony to the already complicated storyline. More B&B spoilers suggest that while Finn's potential indiscretion could level the playing field between him and Steffy, it could also escalate the existing drama, especially if the woman from the one-night stand shows up in L.A. or if it turns out to be Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig), Steffy's mother who often attends medical conferences. The plot further thickens with Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) and Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) getting closer, adding to Taylor's discontent.

How often do you think about the patterns and paths of your life that are shaping you? Many factors shape us that we don't choose—the family we were born into, the time period we live in, and the influences of our community and culture. Yet, there are many things we participate in that are either forming us into people of spiritual abundance or spiritual bankruptcy. Join us as we reflect on the choices we are already making that, over time, can help form us into the likeness of Christ. Here we can find encouragement and faith to participate fully, knowing that what we continue to give ourselves to shapes us in powerful ways.

To talk about GOP lawmakers wanting more information on an investigation into Gov. Hobbs, the data center debate coming to Arizona and more, The Show sat down with Doug Cole of HighGround and Democratic strategist Tony Cani.
Send us Fan MailA story can be true without being factual, but it can't be powerful without an anchor. We start from a simple image: standing on a height and realizing that fear and fascination live in the same place. That “height” becomes our metaphor for storytelling, because the point you speak from determines whether your narrative sounds borrowed or original, small or expansive, hesitant or owned. We dig into why big franchises like Marvel make people believe. It's not just budgets or action scenes. It's the way they build a cosmic reality, a set of coordinates that gives every character and conflict a bigger meaning. We also point to films like Transformers and how Western culture gets woven into the fabric of the story until it feels natural, inevitable, and “of this world.” That's worldbuilding, narrative perspective, and consistency doing the heavy lifting. Then we bring it home: what happens when African storytelling refuses to perform as an afterthought? We talk about Afrocosmic reality, the idea that Africa is not a side plot in the universe but a source of origin, philosophy, imagination, and creative authority. The call is simple and demanding: tell your stories without apologies, own your coordinate, and let your narrative change the world for good.

Sometimes we need a reminder of why life is worth living; why we get up in the morning, why we raise our kids and do our work, why the fight for mercy and justice is worth it. Could it be because this world is full of wonder, and the God who created it wants us to experience it? The way of Jesus can be a path to wonder. Let's travel it together. This is the fifth sermon in the series, The High Ground.

What can we expect in the upcoming midterm election? Chuck Coughlin, president and CEO of HighGround, breaks down the latest polling numbers and what they could mean for the election.
The midterm election is shaping up to be a tight race. Chuck Coughlin, president and CEO of HighGround Inc., breaks down the latest polling and what to expect as the midterm election season heats up.
Do you serve others? If so, what sustains you? When we serve from only a sense of duty and obligation, we will not find the joy, sustenance, and nurturing we were created to experience. Jesus offers us a clue to another way in the “greatest commandment” (he can't help but share two): Love God with all of yourself and love your neighbor as yourself. What if our service is meant to be sustained by a full heart? Join us for the fourth sermon in The High Ground as we take a higher view of what it means to serve and why we need our hearts to do it well.

Is sacrifice an important part of your life?When Jesus describes what it means to follow him in Matthew 16, he speaks plainly about the necessity of sacrifice: giving up something you would like to keep in order to gain something greater. He says we can gain the whole world and still lose our soul if we are unwilling to deny ourselves.For some of us, these words carry painful baggage. We have experienced Christian teaching that twisted “deny yourself” into a justification for neglecting yourself, ignoring your needs, or enduring manipulation and abuse.Yet, the challenge remains: sacrifice is central to an abundant, soulful life and a necessary part of following Jesus.Join us for the third sermon in The High Ground, as we explore what it means to follow Jesus by giving up what we cannot keep to gain what we will never lose.

To talk about Gov. Hobbs making her running mate official, battles over ballot language and more, The Show sat down with Chuck Coughlin of HighGround and Matt Grodsky of Matters of State Strategies.
Terrion Arnold's visit with the Giants puts an uncomfortable spotlight on their biggest concern: the secondary. The former first-round pick comes with serious legal questions and an uneven NFL track record, but the Giants' willingness to bring him in shows just how unsettled their cornerback room remains. There's real concern that one vulnerable position group could undermine all the optimism surrounding the team.
How do we come to know an infinite God? Are facts and ideas enough to satisfy our souls, or is knowing God more like knowing a friend? John's Gospel tells us the divine became flesh in Jesus. Maybe God is still revealed in tangible ways today through Scripture, around a table of fellowship, in ordinary moments, and even in times of great difficulty. Join us for Part Two of The High Ground sermon series as we step back to discover what it means to become A Place to Know God.
We often think of groundbreaking innovation in terms of technology, spreadsheets, and complex engineering. But what happens when humanity's most ambitious moonshots—literally reaching for the stars and returning to the moon—depend entirely on the subtle, daily interactions of human connection and moral courage? In this powerful episode, Chris Schembra sits down with Janet Grondin, CEO of Stellar Solutions and former U.S. Air Force Colonel. Janet shares her journey from a small town in Iowa to directing teams of top engineers and advisors on humanity's most critical space and defense missions, including NASA's Artemis program. Together, they explore the tragedy that shaped her childhood, how to lead with moral courage through delayed gratification, why true leadership means helping every employee find their "dream job," and why human vision—not AI—will always be the ultimate driver of high-ground innovation. 10 Memorable Quotes "You won't survive in our business if you don't work hard and have a solid ethical foundation." — Janet Grondin "When you do see someone who could use a hand, reach out and take action. Don't walk by that problem." — Janet Grondin "For you to operate maritime, terrestrial forces, really hold your nation secure, you do need the high ground of space." — Janet Grondin "Processes don't build systems. Paper doesn't build systems... People build systems. People have visions." — Janet Grondin "Very subtle, small human interactions can have outsized impact on the mission." — Janet Grondin "If leadership is lonely, you're doing it wrong." — Janet Grondin "Mission success is paramount. People are paramount." — Janet Grondin "The connection is through the question, and then you have to be ready for the answer because it's not always the answer you want." — Janet Grondin "AI is not going to put those together and go, 'Hey, we should build a spaceship... to create diamonds and silicon.' Humans do that." — Janet Grondin "The work is done by people. And without people, I don't care what you're building, you're not gonna build much without people." — Janet Grondin 10 Key Takeaways The Ethical Foundation: High-stakes leadership requires an unshakeable ethical foundation and a commitment to leaving every environment better than you found it. Taking Action over Bystander Mindset: Real leadership means taking immediate action when you spot someone in need or identify a flaw in a critical system. The High Ground Advantage: Long-term security, communication, and economic innovation depend on securing and developing the "high ground" of low Earth orbit and lunar bases. Humans Build Systems, Not Spreadsheets: Technology and processes are just tools; the human connection between designers, builders, and leaders is the true "secret sauce" of complex mission success. Psychological Safety in Engineering: High-performing cultures require enough trust and moral courage for team members to raise flags when something isn't right without fear of dismissal. The "Dream Job" Culture: Regularly asking employees "Are you in your dream job?" builds deep alignment and ensures the company evolves in the direction of its people. Combating Productivity Paradoxes: Instead of letting efficiency gains get swallowed by routine administrative busywork, leaders must intentionally protect space for collaboration and connection. Intentional Community Building: Distributed and remote teams require intentional, high-touch connection points, from monthly one-on-ones to biannual retreats and collaborative strategy sessions. Human Vision vs. AI Execution: While AI excels at data sifting and routine tasks, original genius, cross-domain breakthroughs, and visionary courage remain uniquely human. Redefining Impact and Boundaries: True growth comes from recognizing you are a small, vital part of something much bigger than yourself—and expanding your sights beyond terrestrial boundaries. About Our Guest Janet Grondin is the Chief Executive Officer of Stellar Solutions, Inc., a woman-owned aerospace engineering services firm and Malcolm Baldrige Award winner serving intelligence, defense, civil, commercial, and international customers. Janet's career spans three decades across the U.S. Air Force—where she retired as a Colonel—Fortune 500 defense contractor Northrop Grumman, and now Stellar Solutions.

The pick is in! Governor Hobbs reportedly made her choice for lieutenant governor. We find out what political consultant, Chuck Coughlin thinks about it.
Have you ever felt like you were doing everything right — in your faith, your relationships, your purpose — and life still knocked you flat? This message is about finding real hope, working through anxiety, and building a foundation your faith and your life can actually stand on when the hard seasons hit.Not because you didn't work hard. Not because you didn't love Jesus enough. But because somewhere underneath the surface, something you built your identity, your purpose, and your spiritual growth on wasn't strong enough to hold the weight.In this message, we're wrapping up our High Ground series at Church of Hope with Jesus' story of two builders — one who built his faith on rock, one who built on sand. Same storm. Same anxiety. Same uncertainty. Completely different outcome. And the difference was never what people could see from the outside.This isn't a message about having a bad day. It's about what's actually holding your life together when the pressure hits — your marriage, your mental health, your finances, your faith, your future. We'll talk about why comfort always looks more appealing than obedience, why "Lord, Lord" isn't the same thing as actually knowing Jesus, and how to build a foundation today that will still be standing when the storm comes tomorrow. Whether you've followed Jesus for years or you're just curious what real faith even looks like when life gets hard, this one's for you.In this video, you'll learn: - Why storms don't create weakness in your life — they expose what was already there - The difference between being a "fan" of Jesus and a "follower" of Jesus - Why choosing convenience over obedience is always more expensive in the long run - Practical steps to build a daily foundation that can actually hold up under pressure

Have you ever wondered if you're actually following Jesus... or just a fan of him?There's a difference — and it's bigger than most of us realize. In this message from our High Ground series, we dig into one of the most convicting passages in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 7:12-23), where Jesus talks about the Golden Rule, the narrow gate vs. the wide gate, how to recognize a false teacher, and one of the scariest lines in all of Scripture: "Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter the kingdom of heaven."This isn't about working harder for God or checking more religious boxes. It's about the difference between doing things for Jesus and actually knowing Jesus. Whether you grew up in church, walked away from faith, or you're just spiritually curious and trying to figure out what you actually believe, this message will challenge you to ask an honest question: am I a fan of Jesus, or am I truly following him?In this video, we cover: - What the Golden Rule really means (and where it actually came from) - The narrow gate vs. the wide gate — and why comfort isn't the goal - How to test whether spiritual teaching (or a teacher) is trustworthy - Why doing good things "in Jesus' name" isn't the same as knowing him - What it means to actually walk with God instead of just working for himIf this message speaks to you, here's how to go further:

Some guests just drop bombs for an hour straight, and Griffin Brand is one of them. Griffin is a former 75th Ranger Regiment special operator who, at 26, found himself as the lone military advisor to the U.S. ambassador in Kabul, wrangling 20 different three-letter agencies into one room. Now he's in private equity with High Ground, working deals across the restoration industry. If you caught last week's episode with Griffin and his co-author Dan Casey on their book Bring Your Own Pencil, this is the deep dive into the man behind it. This conversation is loaded for anyone leading a business in the trades: restoration, roofing, HVAC, you name it. We get into General McChrystal's "fast and flat" philosophy and how to break down the silos killing your company's speed. Extreme ownership, owning the inputs so the outcomes take care of themselves, why veterans are the best hires in blue collar, and a story Griffin had never told before about an insider attack at the embassy and what it taught him about empathy and leadership. Trust me, you'll want a notebook. Owning a business in the trades can be the loneliest job there is. Head, Heart, & Boots exists to change that, because the best leaders don't go it alone, and neither should you. Why You Should Listen: [11:03] The third door: how Griffin got through every door he was told was closed, including Ranger Regiment [15:09] The leadership move that built instant trust with the highest-ego room on the planet [18:53] Fast and flat: McChrystal's team of teams, and one practical way to run it in your shop tomorrow [34:07] The insider attack story Griffin processes live for the first time, and the empathy lesson he took from it [52:39] Why veterans are the hire your business needs, and how to find them Grab Bring Your Own Pencil on Amazon, Audible, or bringyourownpencil.com.

I discuss the possibilities of America relinquishing its global ambition to reduce its footprint to a regional hegemon in the Western hemisphere. The new technologies of AI, UAVs and hypersonics rather easily challenge the spending paradigms and mission architecture of the American armed forces. There are no near-peer competitors, every nation on Earth is now a peer to modern western war machines. America boasts a magnificent 20th century war machine is not fit for purpose for 21st century peer warfare. The crossroads is chock-full of landmines.

To talk about the possibility of a deal to keep school vouchers off this fall's ballot, Republican and Democratic debates in a hotly contested congressional district and more, The Show sat down with Paul Bentz of HighGround and Jason Barraza of Veridus.
In this emergency reaction episode, we discuss Widow's Bay, a TV show that has consumed us like Richard Warren gobbling up evil psychedelic mushrooms during a winter famine. This is an unstructured, rambling discussion with none of the usual segments. SPOILER WARNING - please please PLEASE DO NOT LISTEN if you haven't watched the show in its entirety!

In this episode of Holodeck Divas we discuss the Star Trek - The Next Generation episode "The High Ground" (s312). Dr. Crusher is crushing it in this episode, though she does get kidnapped. This episode didn't turn out the way most of the show runners wanted, plus Stef and Chris may agree with some of them. Listen to hear why!
There comes a time in every person's life when they must contend with the question: which golf game is for me? For Rob, well he and his dad spent some time this past week hitting the links in PGA 2k25. Patrick and Chia were both won over by a totally Normal Golf Game, (which they will make Rob play next week when the crew gathers at Highground). Unfortunately, there's only so much golfing that can distract from Xbox closing multiple studios, Epic putting AI in Unreal Engine 6, and Don't Nod teetering on the edge of shutting down for good. As bleak as the AAA space is, at least Steam Next Fest has given Patrick and Chia games to look forward to in the indie zone, including Penguin Colony, the next game from the folks who made Umurangi Generation, and even more golf in the form of Sting and Swing, a stylish looking metroid-vania golfing game.Reminder: Last year, the pro-Palestinian human rights movement BDS that's pressuring Israel by promoting boycotts, divestment, and sanctions against the country added Xbox to its boycott list.

Episode 3418: Rachel Trotta explores why highly palatable foods have such a strong pull, especially during periods of stress, fatigue, and emotional overload. She encourages a practical, nonjudgmental approach to eating by comparing food choices to financial budgeting, helping listeners rethink trigger foods, reduce shame, and make informed decisions that support both present and future well-being. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://racheltrotta.com/making-the-changes-that-matter/trigger-foods-clean-eating-and-leveling-the-moral-high-ground/ Quotes to ponder: "When you are chronically stressed, under-rested, or somehow emotionally over-drawn, the great likelihood is that you will be more drawn to these seductive, hyperpalatable foods." "Food is a natural soother, and at those times when you're burned out, at night, after work, for example, food seems like a viable shortcut to serenity." "No food is bad. No food is good."

Discover all of the podcasts in our network, search for specific episodes, get the Optimal Living Daily workbook, and learn more at: OLDPodcast.com. Episode 3417: Rachel Trotta challenges the mindset of labeling foods as “good” or “bad,” arguing that so-called “clean eating” often creates cycles of restriction, overeating, and shame rather than lasting progress. She offers a more practical framework for evaluating nutrition and exercise habits, while introducing the concept of trigger foods and why certain foods can be especially difficult to eat in moderation. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://racheltrotta.com/making-the-changes-that-matter/trigger-foods-clean-eating-and-leveling-the-moral-high-ground/ Quotes to ponder: "Health is more than physical, it encompasses the mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of life, as well, and it's hard to untangle these components." "To be clear: a trigger food is not a bad food to be avoided at all costs. Instead, it's a food that tends to elicit overeating." "Black and white lines separating “good foods” from “bad foods” creates a very difficult and bumpy road to success." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
