Podcasts about Hopeless

“What are you doing if you're not trying, or trying not to be doing something? Everything you're doing.” - Dave Cuomo   Dave gives us an exhortation to  hopeless faith for the hopelessly secular who might still be in the market for meaning and purpose. Can we really base a strong and sincere faith on literally nothing? Can skepticism and doubt be both the prison and the way out? Is it possible to believe in something you don't already believe in? Is any of this up to us if the truth is it was never actually about us?? Find out here!!

Hello to you listening in Quezon City, the Philippines!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.In 2017 (years before the current madness) Pope Francis said, “Hitler didn't steal the power, his people voted for him, then he destroyed his people.” That's what con men do. Yes, there are days when We the People feel ashamed - even hopeless - for having been duped.At the same time I'm reminded of a line in William Faulkner's 1936 novel Absalom, Absalom!. “Well, Kernel, they kilt us but they ain't whupped us yit!” The quote captures the spirit of the post-Civil War South, suggesting a resilience despite a devastating military loss. For those who paid attention, with that quote Tim Kaine introduced Hillary Clinton ahead of her concession speech. It still applies. Work still remains. Question: If it's true - and I believe it is - we are responsible for the world in which we find ourselves because we alone can change it, how are We the People showing up, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant? How are you finding your voice in these times and what are you saying when you speak up? We the People are casting off our feelings of helplessness, committing to action, reaching for miracle. Where do you find yourself reaching for miracles? Reach! They ain't whupped us yit! You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

We all face moments when the future feels uncertain and anxiety starts to spiral. In this episode, Ash and Cam unpack Jeremiah 29:11 — “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord... — and talk about how to hold onto hope when life feels overwhelming. Together they explore: Why it’s hard to trust God when you can’t see what’s ahead. The difference between knowing this verse and truly believing it. How to take your thoughts captive and stop the spiral of “what ifs.” What to do when the enemy tries to convince you there’s no hope or future. How to reframe anxiety through God’s promises and His bigger picture. If you’ve been wrestling with worry, fear of the unknown, or feeling stuck in your thoughts, this episode will remind you that God’s plans for your life are still good — even when you can’t see the way forward.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Prince Andrew's attempts to maneuver his way out of disgrace were always doomed, a tragic farce masquerading as strategy. From the moment the Epstein connection came to light, every move he made only dug the hole deeper. His insistence on maintaining innocence while refusing transparency, his ill-fated Newsnight interview, and his reliance on royal privilege rather than accountability painted him as a man utterly detached from reality. Andrew seemed to believe that royal insulation and denial could outlast public outrage, yet every deflection—every "no recollection" and every attempt to hide behind Buckingham Palace—only amplified his guilt in the court of public opinion. By the time he settled with Virginia Giuffre, his options were no longer strategic—they were survivalist.The truth is, Andrew's exile wasn't a punishment; it was an inevitability. His downfall wasn't the result of a single mistake, but a lifelong pattern of entitlement colliding with modern accountability. His efforts to cling to status—whether by trying to stage a “comeback,” whispering about new roles, or leaning on family ties—were like a drowning man grasping at fog. The monarchy, desperate to preserve itself, eventually realized that Andrew was a liability too radioactive to rehabilitate. His downfall was written the moment he mistook impunity for immunity. Now, stripped of titles, dignity, and relevance, Prince Andrew stands as the embodiment of how arrogance and denial can turn royal blood into social poison.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In this episode of Ageless Future, Regan Archibald sits down with Dr. Aaron Hartman, a leading integrative and functional medicine physician from Richmond, Virginia, to explore how personal struggle reshaped his medical philosophy. Dr. Hartman shares the remarkable story of his adopted daughter, Anna, who was born with severe neurological challenges after prenatal drug exposure and was given little hope by conventional medicine. Refusing invasive interventions, Dr. Hartman and his wife instead pioneered a personalized, root-cause approach—combining nutrition, genomic testing, hyperbaric therapy, peptides, and stem cells—to help Anna achieve milestones doctors said were impossible. Their journey reveals both the shortcomings of standard medical systems and the transformative power of curiosity, persistence, and faith. The conversation expands to the healing of mothers, trauma recovery, and how functional medicine empowers both patients and practitioners to think, innovate, and restore true health. LIKE/FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE DR.

Do you feel hopeless—like you're stuck in a dark place with no way out? If you've ever thought your struggles are too big to overcome or that the world is falling apart, this episode is for you. Hope isn't something you either have or don't—it's a skill you can build. My guest today is Dr. Julia Garcia, a psychologist and author of The Five Habits of Hope. Some of the things we discuss are: What hope actually is The biggest myth about hopelessness (and the mindset shift that helps you find a way out) How social media quietly drains hope—and a simple way to reclaim it How to reflect without ruminating The micro social risks that build real connection (even if you're shy) How to release the things that are keeping you stuck Why receiving compliments and support is harder than it seems—and how to practice it Turning pain into purpose—how to repurpose hard experiences so they work for you, not against you A five-question “feeling framework” to get unstuck fast and take meaningful action Subscribe to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mentally Stronger Premium⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for exclusive content like weekly bonus episodes, mental strength challenges, and office hours with me.

Segment 1 • Nick says evolution explains the appearance of design, but Todd pushes back. • Though raised Catholic and Hindu, Nick says he believes in “something above us” but isn't sure one religion has the full truth. • Todd walks Nick through why Jesus' payment for sin is necessary. Segment 2 • Todd presses Nick on objective truth: if Jesus rose, it's true for everyone. • Todd argues truth doesn't depend on culture or birthplace, but Nick says otherwise. • Todd says that if Jesus beat death, then His claims demand a verdict. Segment 3 • Jordan and Todd discuss rising suicide and mental illness rates. • Todd connects it to worldview: if life is meaningless and subjective, despair makes sense. • Jordan agrees that postmodernism leaves people empty. Segment 4 • Jordan calls herself a Christian but admits she can't articulate why Jesus' death matters. • Todd explains the purpose of life through the gospel. • By the end, Jordan quietly confesses: “I might not actually be saved.” ___ Thanks for listening!

Norm Hitzges is fresh from MetLife Stadium — and if you're a Jets fan, you might want to cover your eyes. In this episode of Just Wondering, Norm breaks down the Cowboys' 37–22 beatdown of the New York Jets with all the charm, humor, and brutal honesty we've come to love.From wearing his buddy's Jets shirt (for “diplomatic reasons”) to watching fans file out of the stadium like it was a funeral, Norm captures every ounce of the chaos — the fumbles, the flags, the failed faith, and yes, the guy whose jersey literally read HOPELESS.Between analyzing Dak Prescott's precision, Ryan Flournoy's breakout, and the Jets' knack for self-sabotage, Norm still finds time to drop a few gems about steak, skincare, and retirement — because balance is key.It's sports talk meets storytelling, with a dash of snark and a whole lot of truth. ⏱️ Chapters:00:00 - Jets Bench Views and Questionable Wardrobe Choices01:33 - Fluent Financial Wants You to Retire Happier Than a Jets Fan03:53 - A Win So Good It Felt Wrong to Complain04:38 - Dallas Dominates While Missing Half Its Offense05:26 - The Jets Find New Ways to Lose (Again)06:45 - Third-and-One?

Norm Hitzges dives headfirst into the misery that is New York Jets football—an endless carousel of quarterbacks, penalties, and heartbreak—now handed to new head coach Aaron Glenn. Can the former undersized cornerback bring real change, or is this franchise doomed by history?Along the way, Norm contrasts the Jets' struggles with the Dallas Cowboys' potential this season, offering sharp takes on what both teams' futures may hold. And just when the gridiron talk gets heavy, Norm pivots to baseball to unpack Bruce Bochy's surprise exit from the Texas Rangers—why it happened, what it means, and how the team moves forward.It's classic Norm: insightful, blunt, and packed with stories only he can tell.⏱️ Chapters:00:00 - Cowboys Questions, Jets Misery01:27 - Aaron Glenn: The Little Cornerback Who Could03:49 - Jets History: 55 Years of Frustration05:25 - Stat Sheet of Sadness07:02 - Can They Run Their Way Out?08:41 - Wide Receiver Wasteland09:33 - Vegas Knows Best11:03 - Bochy Walks Away12:28 - Did the Rangers Waste a Season?14:05 - Looking Ahead, But Missing Bochy

Mentors: climate change is hopeless—at least, that's the message many young scientists are hearing from the people they were told to admire. But what if giving up isn't the only option? In this episode, I respond to a heartfelt email from a marine science student who refuses to stay silent, even when senior scientists tell her that solutions to climate change are naive, misguided, or politically inconvenient. Mentors: climate change is hopeless may be the mantra of a tired system, but this generation of scientists has grown up under the weight of ecological crisis—and they're ready to do something about it. I share concrete advice for early-career changemakers who want to be bold, build community, speak truth to power, and help people understand real climate solutions despite institutional apathy.

We're back for Season 6 of Hello Universe!

We're so glad you are here! Thanks for checking out Sunday's message!-- SUNDAY'S NOTES --Pro. 13:12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick… ( Act 27:20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and the storm continued raging, we finally gave up all hope of being saved) (Zero expectation that this situation would get better, and great expectation they were fixin to die!)PAUL WAS HOPELESS!I believe that since Paul was human, He took His eyes off of the promise God had given him, let the enemys voice influence his faith and gave up.Have you heard that enemy voice whisper to you? THIS IS THE END…Its Over?They wont ever serve JesusYou will never get a better or another JobYou wont ever walk in freedom from this substanceFear and Anxiety will always control you!Your marriage wont surviveYour pain will never subsideYour ship is gonna sink and you gonna die!If we continue to let this voice whisper, we too will become HOPELESS! Jonah was running away from God, Paul was running towards God!Both men encountered a terrible storm:Hope from the root-Tikvaw To fasten/tie/attach Now we know from what the bible says Heb. 6:19 that Jesus is our hope and… that Jesus is our HopeHope is an attachment or tying yourself to Jesus in real everyday relationship. This attachment births in your heart an expectation of something good that you cant see yet.If you need hope, You fasten yourself to Jesus.He is the only source of Hope that will never let you down.Talk about rooted!

THIS IS THE END…Its Over?They wont ever serve JesusYou will never get a better or another JobYou wont ever walk in freedom from this substanceFear and Anxiety will always control you!Your marriage wont surviveYour pain will never subsideYour ship is gonna sink and you gonna die!If we continue to let this voice whisper, we too will become HOPELESS! Jonah was running away from God, Paul was running towards God!Both men encountered a terrible storm:Hope from the root-Tikvaw To fasten/tie/attach Now we know from what the bible says Heb. 6:19 that Jesus is our hope and… that Jesus is our HopeHope is an attachment or tying yourself to Jesus in real everyday relationship. This attachment births in your heart an expectation of something good that you cant see yet.If you need hope, You fasten yourself to Jesus.He is the only source of Hope that will never let you down.Talk about rooted!

From Hopeless to Heartburn | Luke 24:13-35 | Heston Blake

Today on Hooked on Sports:John discusses his biggest takeaways from Week 2 of the NFL season, including the struggles for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs as they start 0-2, the wild back-and-forth NFC East shootout between the Giants and Cowboys, Joe Burrow's devastating toe injury that could derail the Bengals season, the Dolphins losing in embarrassing fashion again as calls grow for regime change in Miami.Then, he highlights things he noticed in Week 3 of college football and some big games ahead in Week 4, and the National League Wild Card race where the Mets are trying to avoid missing the playoffs entirely after starting 45-24.

Dawson is wrapping up his work on the A.I. Brooks documentary just as A.I. Brooks is wrapping up his affairs on earth, furtively hiding pills and getting Dawson to sign paperwork without giving him time to read it. Dawson might not have taken the time anyway, since he's focused on a big milestone with Gretchen: meeting her friends. Going out to a show with a couple of Gretchen's college friends throws their age difference into stark relief, as does Gretchen talking about him like he's less of a boyfriend and more of a boyfriend-shaped body pillow. Meanwhile, Joey is trying to barter a couple of precious weekend nights off work at the Yacht Club by making Drue's date with Anna, daughter to the Club board president, a double. Mrs. Valentine makes it clear she'll only grant the time off if Drue's date Anna has a great time, so both Joey and Pacey have to run interference to draw attention away from Drue's stank attitude. Tobey tries to take Jen's advice by being friends with Jack, suggesting that Jack join him tutoring middle school kids, which is extremely cute...at first. We hope you'll enjoy our episode on "Hopeless"! JOIN THE AWT CLUB

Gospel Daily with Josh Weidmann Fearless Faith: Trusting Jesus in Life's Most Hopeless Moments, Part 2Series: Unveiled Scripture: Mark 5:21–43, Mark 6:1–6 Episode: 1427 Scripture Summary: In Mark 5:21–43, Jesus performs two powerful miracles that highlight His compassion and authority over life and death. First, Jairus, a synagogue leader, begs Jesus to heal his dying daughter. On the way, a woman with a 12-year bleeding condition touches Jesus' cloak in faith and is immediately healed. Jesus acknowledges her faith publicly, calling her "daughter." Meanwhile, Jairus's daughter dies, but Jesus tells him, “Don't be afraid; just believe.” Jesus goes to the house, takes the girl by the hand, and raises her from the dead, stunning everyone present. In Mark 6:1–6, Jesus returns to His hometown of Nazareth, where He is met with skepticism and unbelief. Though they are astonished at His wisdom and miracles, the locals reject Him because of His familiar background. As a result, Jesus performs only a few healings and is amazed at their lack of faith.

Story of the Week (DR):Lachlan Murdoch Secures Control of Fox and News Corp, Ending Succession FightLachlan Murdoch is confirmed as Rupert Murdoch's successor, gaining control over the family's media empire (which includes Fox Corporation and News Corp). Prudence MacLeod, Elisabeth Murdoch, and James Murdoch—three of Rupert's older children—will each receive about US$1.1 billion. They will sell their holdings in Fox and News Corp and give up beneficial/trust rights in those companies.Apart from full siblings Elisabeth and James Murdoch, Lachlan has three half-siblings, an elder half-sister Prudence, and two younger sisters by his father's third marriage, Grace and Chloe. A new family trust will be set up benefiting Lachlan and Rupert's younger daughters, Grace and Chloe. That trust will hold controlling voting shares in Fox and News Corp. The three older siblings will no longer be beneficiaries in the trust(s) connected to Fox and News Corp. They also give up any voting rights held via those trusts. Rupert Murdoch, despite handing over the control structure, retains a role as Chairman Emeritus. The new trust arrangement secures Lachlan's control over the companies through 2050. One of Rupert Murdoch's concerns was the possibility that the more moderate siblings (Prudence, Elisabeth, James) could shift the political or editorial leanings of Fox/News Corp after he's gone. The new structure is designed to prevent that.Senators Call for Hearings About JPMorgan's Ties to Jeffrey EpsteinDemocrats want CEO Jamie Dimon to testify about keeping Epstein as a client until 2013Epstein had dozens of accounts at JPMorgan's private bank and communicated often with bank executives, connecting them to his wealthy contacts, ties The Wall Street Journal first reported in 2023 to be deeper than understood. Epstein was a JPMorgan client before and after he was convicted of soliciting a minor for prostitution in 2008 and forced to register as a sex offender.Trump Epstein letter and drawing from ‘birthday book' releasedEric Trump removed from the ALT5 board of directors after discussion with the Nasdaq Stock Market LLCTrump's second son, Eric Trump, was removed from the ALT5 board of directors. According to the SEC filing, the change was made after discussion with the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, therefore, the change was in order to comply with Nasdaq's listing rules.It is still unclear which of the Nasdaq rules caused Eric Trump to be removed. The closest reason would be the rule that requires a majority of board members at listed companies to be independent. However, if Trump didn't qualify as independent, other members would have also been removed, which was not the case.after discussion with The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC … and in order to comply with Nasdaq's listing rules.” He is now a board observer: While he was originally announced as a full board member, Eric Trump has been reassigned to observer status — meaning he can attend meetings but doesn't have voting power.Larry Ellison's $100 billion day reminds us why David Ellison could buy ParamountLarry Ellison, co-founder of Oracle, recently saw his net worth jump by around US$100 billion in a single day due to a spike in Oracle's stock.Larry's wealth was a key factor enabling his son, David Ellison, to acquire Paramount.David Ellison's position is less pressured because his father's vast wealth gives him a kind of “cushion” — meaning that even if some deals don't go well, he can withstand the backlash more than many media owners could.Paramount Skydance Prepares Ellison-Backed Bid for Warner Bros. DiscoveryThe majority of the planned bid for Warner will be made up of cashA Key to Larry Ellison's Wealth Creation: Years of Oracle Stock BuybacksOracle has used aggressive stock buybacks over the past 15 years as a major lever to boost shareholder value—and especially to amplify Larry Ellison's personal wealth. Oracle has aggressively repurchased its own shares over roughly the last 15 years — reducing its outstanding share count by nearly 45%. Because Larry Ellison held roughly the same number of shares, his ownership percentage rose from ~23% to around 41% without buying more stock.This buyback strategy significantly boosted the value of Ellison's stake — Barron's estimates that without the buybacks, his stake might have been worth only $215 billion instead of the current ~$387 billion.Ellison didn't need to purchase additional Oracle shares to increase the value of his investment—he benefited from the shrinking pool of shares and the company's rising valuation.Vanguard Tries To Get Investors Interested In Proxy Voting MMVanguard's trying to get millions of its fund investors involved in big corporate decisions—but so far, most people are still tuning out. That's left folks wondering who really holds sway at America's largest companies.Vanguard's campaign faces a classic case of 'rational apathy', where most index fund investors skip shareholder votes because it feels like a hassle with little impact on their own wallets.Even though Vanguard's Voting Choice program doubled participation to 82,000 people and tripled the dollar value voted to $9 billion, that's tiny compared to the company's 50 million investors and $11 trillion in assets.Studies from Duke, Florida, and Columbia universities show just how overwhelming the sheer number of ballot measures can be—making most people pick broad voting policies, like mainstream or anti-ESG, instead of poring over each decision.While reformers hope wider voting can democratize the system, the early results point the other way: individuals often skip votes or side with management, letting company leaders keep their grip. In fact, last year's Tesla shareholder votes would have failed if Vanguard's index funds had voted like individuals.Financial Services Committee Examines the Shareholder Proposal Process and Proxy Advisory FirmsOn the Impact of Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd-Frank on Annual Proxy Statements: “Together, these two laws [Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd-Frank] have driven up costs, increased the length and complexity of proxy statements, expanded the disclosure and oversight process, and fundamentally changed much of the shareholder access to the proxy system,” said Chairman Hill.French Hill: founder, Chair, and CEO of Delta Trust & Banking Corporation from 1999 until 2014. A ninth-generation Arkansan, Hill is a direct descendent of slave plantation owner Creed Taylor who was among the wealthiest 1% of Americans in 1860.On the Cost of Unnecessary and Irrelevant Shareholder Proposals: “Under this flawed system, companies are too often forced to waste valuable time and resources fighting proposals that are irrelevant to the company's bottom line, hurting investors and workers alike,” said Capital Markets Subcommittee Chair Ann Wagner (MO-02)."Allowing a small group of left-wing activists to hijack the proxy proposal process to push social, environmental, DEI, or political objectives totally unrelated to the core business of a company does not advance the cause of capitalism. It undermines capitalism. It corrupts capitalism because it results in the misallocation of resources of the company. It undermines the profitability of the company. It hurts the shareholders,” stated Financial Institutions Subcommittee Chair Rep. Andy Barr (KY-06).Barr believes that abortion should be illegal, including in cases of rape and incestBarr, who's now running for Mitch McConnell's Senate seat, made it clear that he and Musk are joined at the hip. A few days after the “town hall” Barr released a photo of himself standing beside a shiny new Tesla, with a big smile, a thumbs-up, and the caption “Elon Musk sure knows what he's doing!”On How Proxy Advisory Firms Can Deter Businesses from Joining Public Markets: “For many small and medium private companies considering an IPO, the decision often comes down to whether the benefits of accessing public markets outweigh the risk of compliance. But as we have seen in recent years, the shareholder proposal process can be dominated by a small group of activist investors advancing niche political agendas that have little to do with long term value creation. At the same time, proxy advisory firms wield outsized influence over voting outcomes, and [are] operating with limited transparency and potential conflicts of interest. So together, these dynamics can create an uncertainty and additional cost that make public markets less attractive,” declared House Small Business Committee Chairman Roger Williams (TX-25).Williams was listed as the 22nd wealthiest member of Congress in 2018. Williams inherited the family's automobile dealership from his father, who founded the business in 1939.During the COVID-19 pandemic, Williams's Chrysler Dodge Jeep dealership in Weatherford, Texas, received a loan of between $1 million and $2 million as part of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP);[28][29] the loan was later forgivenGoodliest of the Week (MM/DR):DR: Boone Electric Co-op members can cast drive-thru votes for directorsDR: New Mexico will be the first state to make child care free DR MMThe program, which will start in November and is expected to save families $12,000 per child annually, is available to all residents regardless of income.

If this pay package passes, he will have as much worth as ONE QUARTER of EVERYONE UNDER 40 - 166 million people in the US. We're convinced because he bought a car company and built some rockets using US subsidies he's singular. Combine that with the fact that he's one of 4 billionaire white men who control social media, which tells us EVERY DAY our life sucks and the reason is “the other side” and capitalism support is at a long term low, and people feel there are NO OTHER OPTIONS but to assassinate someone.Men - more than 99% of political violence is committed by men. Out of nearly 10,000 global public companies, 93% are lead by men. 73% of all country level parliamentary seats are male.
