Ansley is back in the driver's seat of the Boredwalk Podcast, and she is FIRED UP about MAGA's latest assaults on civil liberties — particularly long-forgotten serially divorced sister-wife Kim Davis's return to the national spotlight to resume her bigoted crusade to overturn the U.S. Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling that legalized same-sex marriage at the federal level. Ugh, give it up, you pathetic hose beast! Take your deviled eggs of hate back to your tacky double-wide hovel, stop being so obsessed with what other people do in their private lives, and do something constructive with your life! Maybe start with addressing your tragic wardrobe choices and regrettable hair situation. This leads into a discussion of Donald Trump's continued efforts to end free and fair elections and representative democracy more broadly in the U.S. as he races to complete Project 2025 and uses the National Guard and domestic militarization for his personal political vendettas. If you're concerned about U.S. politics and voting rights, you won't want to miss this episode full of Donald Trump news. We also discuss attacks on birth control, reproductive rights, and more! Moving on, we check in with the latest dispatch from Troll-sylvania, where we get to disabuse fragile men in the comments of the notion that misandry is a thing that exists (it does not). Astute listeners / viewers will note that the above sentence is unchanged from LAST week's episode description. That is because these soft little snowflakes cry about the same thing CONSTANTLY every freakin' week in our comments. At least be original with your whining, you pathetic red pill regressives! This is followed by a nice palate cleanser in the form of a glowing 5-star review for our newly-released Sinister Affirmations card deck, and then our hosts wrap up the episode by trading answers to questions pulled from our Delve Deck conversation card sets. This week we answer the questions "what is your least favorite home decor trend?", "what first made you realize you were getting old?", and "what's your favorite smell?"

What Makes a Story Truly Humorous? Clay Calloway's Journey Through Dodge City's Wild Past

Send us a textEver wondered how true American humor differs from its European counterparts? Clay Calloway joins the Wild West Podcast to reveal the secrets behind genuine frontier storytelling through his introduction to "The Legends of Dodge City: The Enterprise." Calloway's masterful analysis connects human anatomy to narrative structure, using the "funny bone" as a metaphor for how great stories deliver their impact. Unlike the immediate burst of a comic tale, true American humor bubbles along gently before delivering a lingering intellectual jolt. The distinction lies not in content but in delivery – grave, wandering, and punctuated by powerful pauses.The conversation reveals how Dodge City wasn't born from traditional city planning but from entrepreneurs who "simply uncorked a barrel of whiskey, pitched a tent, and laid down a few boards." This reckless pursuit of profit created a legendary legacy that outlasted both the mighty buffalo herds and the whiskey that once flowed freely through its streets. Calloway's introduction frames the book's approach to telling the stories of Dodge City's founders with authentic frontier humor.Drawing from the ancient theory of the four humors, Calloway creates a fascinating framework for understanding different storytelling temperaments. This classification system reveals that genuine humor isn't born from pure levity but emerges from understanding life's contradictions and absurdities. As he notes with philosophical insight, "There is no laughter in heaven because there is nothing to laugh at" – humor serves as our weapon against life's hardships.Join us for this captivating episode that offers not just a preview of an exciting new book but a masterclass in the art of storytelling.

This week Boredwalk co-founders Matt & Meredith fill in for Ansley & Gabe and join Tess to discuss Texas's gerrymandering shenanigans and the countermeasures that California and other majority Democrat states are proposing to neutralize this grotesque power grab. This leads into a conversation about the much-needed shift in attitude and tactics by Democratic leadership away from adhering to institutional norms in order to "take the high road" and instead meet Republican legislators at their own level (i.e., the gutter). We also check in on the continued very illegal and morally disgusting kidnappings of US citizens and legal residents by ICE agents in Los Angeles and around the rest of the country, and how generally conservative economic policies are worse for the majority of the country — including businesses — despite the GOP being associated with sound economic policy. It's truly maddening that so many voters continue to be hoodwinked by this boondoggle. Moving on, we check in with the latest dispatch from Troll-sylvania, where we get to disabuse fragile men in the comments of the notion that misandry is a thing that exists (it does not).

If you’re not intentionally teaching your kids a solid Christian worldview, someone else is shaping their beliefs for you. In this can’t-miss replay from the Christian Parent / Crazy World vault, sits down with Elizabeth Urbanowicz—elementary educator, apologist, and founder of Foundation Worldview—to equip parents for the immense challenge of raising resilient, truth-loving kids in a culture determined to shape their values. While many children in Christian homes learn Bible stories and attend church, a shocking disconnect remains: they often think more like the surrounding culture than like Christ. Elizabeth shares her journey from the Christian classroom—where she saw even well-discipled kids absorbing secular ideas—to developing comprehensive curricula that anchor young minds in biblical truth. A worldview, she explains, is a “mental map” that guides everything we think, say, and do. In this episode, she equips parents to make that map biblical—even for their youngest learners.

Ahoy Bookshelvers! This week, Steve is proper chuffed (that's British for really, really happy) to chat with the one and only Ryan Cartlidge from The Animal Training Academy! Having been an avid listener to the ATA podcast for many years, this is a "pinch me" moment for Steve and if you don't know Ryan, get ready for a big dose of honesty, humility, and a whole bunch of wisdom.Ryan and Steve dive deep into the messy (and often hilarious) reality of life. Get ready for tales of how Ryan became a zookeeper by accident;  his competent use of cable ties and duct tape, the touching (and slightly terrifying if I'm being honest) story of Reg, the wedge-tailed eagle who helped Ryan cut his teeth in positive reinforcement. Discover the spark that ignited The Animal Training Academy, from workshops to online courses to a thriving membership of 8,000+ wonderful humans, and the wise words that made Ryan work his butt off for his dreams. Plus, brace yourself for (what can only be described as) "The Hallway Poo Situation," It's a raw, relatable peek behind the "perfect Instagram post" that every trainer needs to hear.We also take on imposter syndrome, burnout, and how Ryan has learned to take the "mask off," embrace vulnerability, and use "clarity squeezes" and "capacity signals" (you'll want to steal these!) to navigate life's pressures. He delves into the power of language and community, explaining why naming your fears can strip them of power and how a supportive community (like PACT and ATA!) is crucial for human learners (that's you!) to thrive. We talk about why we should apply the same positive reinforcement principles to ourselves and our clients, and Ryan even shares his simple 3-questions to transform your training reflections.

This week on the Boredwalk Podcast Tess Menzies, Gabe Sanchez, and Boredwalk co-founder Meredith Erin discuss the GOP's reckless "Big Beautiful Bill" (AKA "Big Bloated Bill"). MAGA Republicans are adding to the federal deficit at unprecedented scale to fund their racist attacks on immigrants and Latinos while simultaneously actively harming U.S. citizens more broadly via Medicaid cuts that have already led to hospital & clinic closures in rural areas. We talk about the obscene spending on Trump's "Alligator Alcatraz" concentration camp (AKA Alligator Auschwitz) and the human rights atrocities being committed with our tax dollars. The regime's decision to use FEMA funds meant to help Americans in times of natural disasters, instead being diverted to fund torture prisons. The land has been stolen from Florida's indigenous people and will be used to keep immigrants in deplorable conditions with inadequate food, water, medical care, or sanitation. We also discuss the nonsensical nature of these decisions from an economic perspective, the decreasing value of the U.S. dollar, the unnecessary tax cuts for the rich, and staggering MAGA Republican wealth transfer from the poorest Americans to the richest. Immigrants grow the economy and provide tremendous value to society, removing them from communities does economic harm. Trump and his MAGA cult continue to try to normalize fascism, kidnappings, and human rights violations. These people lack decency and empathy. We must continue to resist. Our co-hosts wrap things up on a lighter note by taking turns answering questions from Boredwalk's Delve Deck conversation card sets! They answered the questions "what's the worst advice you've ever received?", "what is something you ate regularly as a kid that you wouldn't touch now?", and "what is a quality in others that you admire?"

Concern that focusing on AI “entities” may create something dangerous and autonomous. 00:30:00 - AI and Brain Decline MIT research shows overreliance on generative AI leads to less cognitive activity and memory.

Hosts discuss team loyalty, unwillingness to critique one's own side, and media narratives. Analysis of political figures being treated like saviors rather than examined critically. 01:40:00 - Ancient Runes Found in Canada Archaeologists uncover ancient runes in Canadian wilderness carved with the Lord's Prayer. The writing uses a long-dead version of the runic alphabet. Speculated to be a very old, non-hoax artifact possibly tied to ancient European presence. 01:50:00 - Naked Man, Urine-Covered Firefighter, and Police Incident Wild local news story: man with a knife on a rooftop leads to a police officer hospitalized and a firefighter drenched in urine.

Ansley Hutchinson, Tess Menzies, and Gabe Sanchez of the Boredwalk content team shares the reality of life in Los Angeles during the anti-Trump "No Kings" protests. Spoiler alert: The protests are peaceful and there are no riots. The only ones being violent are the police. Our Los Angeles-based team points out the dishonesty in the media's portrayals of protest activity in our city. We talk about the spread of anti-Trump protests throughout the U.S. and the disproportionate response of the Trump regime sending in the U.S. military to deter people from exercising their First Amendment rights. We also discuss Trump's hollow threats to defund California, ICE terrorizing immigrants and U.S. citizens alike, violence against the press and peaceful protesters, and the deeper slide of the U.S. into authoritarianism. We also weigh in on the value of showing U.S. flags at protests, and the Trump regime's progress on project 2025. Our co-hosts wrap things up on a lighter note by taking turns answering questions from Boredwalk's Delve Deck conversation card sets! They answered the questions "what did you splurge on that you regret in hindsight?", "what is something other people find gross that doesn't bother you?", and "what is your favorite curse word?"

The Boredwalk content team of Tess Menzies & Ansley Hutchinson — with a special appearance by Boredwalk CEO Meredith Erin — talks about threats to U.S. judges ruling against the Trump regime.

Our hosts also discuss the regime's attacks on Harvard University and international university students, Donald Trump's cryptocurrency bribery scheme, the cowardice of Republican lawmakers, and Kristi Noem's inability to understand the meaning of habeas corpus.

All Call Sunday A Sermon by Judy Mensch, missionary to the children  of Europe. For more information about Judy here.   Ouline Introduction Introduction of the speaker: Judy Mensch, a missionary, children's pastor, evangelist, and Bible school instructor. Personal anecdotes regarding support and shared history with the church community. Humorous and personal stories to establish rapport (e.g., pantyhose story behind the pulpit). Emphasis on the church as a community of people, not just a building. Reflections on Aging and Experience Positive perspective on aging: increased wisdom and social skills. Physical challenges of aging contrasted with personal vitality and ongoing activity. Encouragement to embrace age and continue serving. Purpose and Structure of the Service Explanation of the focus: The Body of Christ and individual roles within it. Outline of how the service will conclude: Invitation for newcomers to learn about Jesus. Instructions for congregation members to visit ministry tables and sign up for service opportunities. Emphasis that everyone should find a place to serve. The Body of Christ: Diversity and Function Analogy of the body: Each part has a unique and necessary function. Encouragement for all members to participate in ministry, not to remain spectators. Assurance that everyone has something to contribute. The Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14–30) Reference to the parable as a basis for the message. Clarification of terminology: preference for “skills and gifts” over “talents.” Emphasis that all have received gifts/skills from God. Key Points of the Message A. Variety of Gifts Everyone has received something; no one is left out. Gifts differ in type and measure, reflecting God's sovereignty and purpose. Biblical references: 1 Corinthians 12, Romans 12, Ephesians. B. Responsibility of Having Gifts Each person is called to use their gifts in service. Serving fills personal gaps and brings fulfillment. God's will is for everyone to be active, not passive. C. Rewards of Using Gifts Joy is the reward for serving and using one's gifts. Serving others leads to personal growth and spiritual satisfaction. Diversity and Equality in the Body God gives different gifts to different people, but loves all equally. No gift is more honorable; all are necessary for the body to function. Reference to the “upside down kingdom”: God's values often differ from worldly values. Practical Application and Encouragement Encouragement to sign up for ministries, including less glamorous roles (e.g., nursery). Recognition that some ministries are less visible but equally important. Everyone's contribution matters, regardless of recognition or praise. Conclusion Restatement of the call to serve and be active in the body of Christ. Assurance that serving is serving Jesus himself. Final instructions for the congregation on next steps after the service.

Send us a textDecluttering isn't just about tidying up—it's about creating space for peace in a chaotic world. Hitting 1 million downloads calls for celebrating with a powerful guest, and Connie Graf delivers with compassion and wisdom that will transform how you approach your environment.Connie, founder of "From Chaos to Peace," reveals why most of us struggle to implement organizational systems despite knowing what to do. "The information is not necessarily the problem," she explains. "The problem is why aren't we doing what we often know we need to do?" This question unlocks a fascinating exploration of procrastination, fear, and the hidden barriers to creating supportive environments.Drawing from her Swiss background and years helping entrepreneurs, Connie shares her framework of four personality types—fire, earth, air, and water—each with unique organizational challenges. Fire types start enthusiastically but struggle to follow through. Earth types get trapped in endless planning. Air types overthink everything. Water types become emotionally overwhelmed by their possessions. Understanding your type provides targeted strategies that actually work.The conversation takes a vulnerable turn when discussing why change feels so threatening. "I think I will not recognize myself if I change and I'm afraid of that," one client confessed. This fear keeps many stuck in chaos despite craving peace. Connie's gentle advice? "A few minutes a day keeps the chaos away." Small, consistent actions build momentum without triggering resistance.We also explore the cultural pressures on women to "do it all" without seeking help, and how setting boundaries—though initially uncomfortable—creates the foundation for genuine peace. As Connie wisely notes, "We can only create more peace in the world if we have peace within us and within our families."Ready to transform your environment from chaotic to peaceful?

A Humorous Dive into Golf's Rulebook

(00:01) Golf Rules and Fair Play This chapter kicks off with some lighthearted banter about Derby week in Louisville, Kentucky, and the coincidental horse names, Journalist and Publisher, which spark a humorous betting anecdote. Shifting gears to golf, we explore the complexities and often misunderstood nature of golf rules, especially those pertaining to the PGA Tour and the FedEx Playoffs. We question the fairness of giving the top 10 players a stroke advantage and ponder a potential rule change that would start all players at zero, likening it to NCAA tournament seedings. Finally, we address the confusion many amateurs face in distinguishing between one-stroke and two-stroke penalties, acknowledging the challenge of fully understanding golf's intricate rulebook. (11:07) Navigating Water Hazards in Golf This chapter takes a closer look at the differences between red and yellow penalty areas on a golf course, often referred to as hazards. We explore the nuances of each, including how they impact dropping options and gameplay. Red penalty areas, or lateral hazards, typically offer more flexibility, allowing players to drop the ball on either side of the hazard or move two club lengths away from where the ball last crossed the hazard line. Yellow penalty areas, however, are more restrictive, often requiring the player to play across the hazard, as seen in island greens. We also address common misconceptions, such as the belief that a ball only needs to touch the ground on the safe side to be playable, clarifying that it must come to rest there. Through examples like the TPC at Sawgrass and a former hole at Pine Tree Golf Club, we illustrate the practical application of these rules, emphasizing the importance of understanding them to avoid unnecessary penalties. (24:11) Understanding Golf Penalties and Rules This chapter focuses on the nuances of golf penalties and the importance of rule distinctions in the game. We explore how accidental infractions, like accidentally moving a ball to a better position, are addressed with a one-stroke penalty to prevent players from gaining an unfair advantage. Additionally, we discuss the two-stroke penalties for more serious violations, such as playing a wrong ball or from the wrong place, and the potential disqualification if a player fails to rectify the mistake before teeing off on the next hole. The conversation highlights the intricacies of golf rules and suggests bringing in a USGA rules official for future discussions to clarify these complex scenarios. The topic of how the game changes when the ball reaches the green is also introduced, setting the stage for further exploration. (34:13) Unfair Golf Rules Debate This chapter brings back the weekend golf discussions where we explore some of the rules that often irk us, especially the unfair penalty strokes. Jeff passionately shares his frustration about not being able to move a ball out of a divot in the fairway, a rule he finds unfair compared to others that allow for improving one's position in a penalty area. We examine the inconsistency in these rules and suggest that divots should be considered ground under repair, as it would make the game fairer. Additionally, we touch on the humorous yet serious side of rules, like the scenario where a player's ball accidentally falls off the tee, clarifying that intent to hit is required for a stroke to count. This leads us to discuss recent changes in rules regarding accidental ball movement, particularly once the ball is in play, highlighting the evolving nature of golf regulations. (41:47) Debate Over Golf Rules This chapter explores the ongoing debate about the USGA's rules of golf and their impact on both amateur and professional players. We discuss the contradictions within the rule book and the idea that amateurs make the rules for professionals, which some find perplexing. The conversation highlights the concept of bifurcation, where different rules could apply to amateurs and professionals, especially regarding equipment like golf balls. The idea of a professional tour creating its own set of rules is also considered, with an understanding that any changes would be widely communicated due to the sport's televised nature. We encourage listeners to familiarize themselves with the USGA rules by obtaining a rule book, emphasizing the importance of understanding the regulations while recognizing the debates surrounding them.
