Rock royalty is in the house. Billy Idol sits down with Bill Maher and nothing is off-limits. From snorting heroin backstage to smoking crack to kick the heroin habit (“it worked!”), Idol tells stories that would make most publicists quit on the spot. They swap sharp takes on Frank Sinatra being a drunk bully to his son, debate whether John Lennon could really hold his own without Paul McCartney and trace the Beatles' takeover of America. Idol reveals how a near-fatal overdose left him turning blue in a hotel room, how a brutal motorcycle accident became his real turning point, and why he now calls himself “California sober.” His new documentary is called Billy Idol Should Be Dead and after this conversation, you'll understand why he isn't.

Today we've got a special guest joining the Christian Music Guys. You know him from American Idol Season 14, where he captured hearts as the runner-up —Clark Beckham is in the house.Since his Idol run, Clark's continued to build a loyal fanbase, blending gospel roots, soul, and pop into music that's both powerful and authentic. And now, he's stepped fully into the Christian music space—signing with NCS Records earlier and releasing his label debut worship single with the NCS Collective, titled “Mystery.”We're excited to talk about his journey, his faith, and what God's doing next—so let's jump in with Clark Beckham.clarkbeckham.com@clarkbeckhamchristianmusicguys.com@christianmusicguys

Okayyyy this one was FUN.
Welcome back to 1987!The decade of decadence, extravagance, elegance and other words that end in -nce was powering its way towards the later end of its cultural tenure. And whilst there is no doubt that perceived wisdom (or, the internet as we now call it) would tell us that 1987 was the year of big hair, big shoulder pads, and big mobile phones, those of that were there can tell a different story too. The year of POP aspiration was also one of smoke and mirrors. The big suits and big statements across our TV and radio were often wonderfully deceptive. Whilst the music industry had loadsamoney to spend, those acts climbing the charts and filling the pages of Smash Hits were doing so often in the most homemade and, frankly subversive way possible. And in doing so, the genres were flowing, the hits were coming and our pop landscape was as colourful and diversive as we could possibly have wished for.Step forward then the leading compilation series (other slightly inferior ones were OBVIOUSLY available) to deliver its tenth volume. I know, double figures!!Now, That's What I Call Music 10 shines brightly with its neon signage casting a glittering pop beacon over the wasteland of…..(enough with the imagery, get to the songs, Ed!)Step forward the utterly imperial Pet Shop Boys, the incredibly sophisti-poptastic Curiosity Killed The Cat, the completely covered in plaster-of-Paris Hue and Cry and many other to lead the hits-filled charge into Autumn ‘87. And joining me to provide her very own unique view of this pop snapshot is TV and radio presenter Sue Charles.Join us as we find out about Sue's journey across Radio1 AND 2, from 'Newsbeat' and 'Steve Wright in the Afternoon' to reporting behind the scenes at TOTP and to becoming one of the most familiar voices and faces across BBC Wales. And of course, dive deep back into the pop culture of 1987 that includes the The Style Council, Casey Kasem, Andy Warhol, Shrewsbury(!), Sir William of Idol, Cliff, claymation Jazz, the glorious return of Squeeze and some genuine love for one of Wales' musical legends Mike Peters.All of this plus some amazing missing in action ‘87 stars and not a single mention of Michael Fish! Ain't no doubt about it, this is The Real Thing! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

From Moses raising his staff, to the servants filling jars with water, to the priests stepping into a raging river — miracles didn't happen instead of obedience… they happened because of it.In this powerful episode of New Path New You, Ron Cool unpacks how God partners with men who are willing to act, why delayed obedience can keep you stuck, and how your simple “yes” can unlock God's faithfulness in your life, marriage, leadership, and purpose.If you've been waiting for clarity, confidence, or the “perfect moment,” this episode will challenge you to stop waiting and start moving.Because God doesn't just work for us — He works through us.
Fresh off his February 16th premiere on American Idol, Jake Thistle joins me on Caught on the Mike to talk about his latest single, “Sleep On Me” — a bold, confident statement from an artist stepping into his moment. We break down the meaning behind the track, the edge and urgency in the songwriting, and how it reflects where Jake is mentally and creatively right now. With a sound rooted in classic '70s and '80s influence but sharpened for today, “Sleep On Me” feels like both a warning shot and a breakthrough. We also get into his Idol experience, working with powerhouse producer Butch Walker, and how national exposure collides with years of groundwork. This episode is about belief, timing, and what happens when the world finally starts paying attention.
Why is it so hard to choose what to do for Lent? Why do we (me included!) put so much pressure on ourselves to pick the perfect sacrifice… the one thing that will finally move the needle… the one decision that will change everything? If you're a homeschool mama who finds herself stuck in indecision, or piling on five spiritual (or non spiritual!) goals because you're afraid one won't be "enough," this episode is for you. Today, I'm talking about the hidden idol of getting it right. The subtle fear that if we choose wrong, it won't count. The quiet pressure to optimize our holiness, our motherhood, even our Lent. But what if the deeper invitation isn't about choosing the perfect sacrifice? What if it's about slowing down… noticing the common thread beneath all your goals… and learning to trust God more than you distrust yourself? In this episode, you'll learn: Why you struggle to follow through (even with good, holy goals) How to identify the deeper "why" beneath your long list of improvements The spiritual shift from striving to surrender Simple thoughts you can practice to build trust with God How presence and surrender, not perfection, draws you closer to Him Lent isn't about misery. It isn't about proving yourself. It isn't about finally becoming the flawless version of you. It's about union. Trust. Surrender. And setting down the idols that stand between you and the Lord. If you struggle with keeping Lent simple, doable, and sustainable, grab your earbuds and join me for: The Idol of Getting It Right: Lent, Homeschooling, and Trusting God.
In week two of our No Other Gods series, we confront one of the most subtle idols of our time: success. Through the wisdom of Solomon and a powerful personal story of rise, collapse, and redemption, we discover why success is a liar, why our value isn't tied to our net worth, and why significance—not status—is what truly lasts. If you've ever measured your worth by achievement, this message will re-center your identity on what God says matters most.

Alex shares about how control can become an idol in our life in trying to take our own lives in our hands and as a result fear stepping out of our comfort zones to where God may be leading. She encourages us to hand control back to God in the fear of the Lord and allow Him to be King in our lives again.
Pastor Jon continued our "Deals with the Devil" series, starting with the Idol of Distraction, namely, the way our phones and screens form us away from the Kingdom.For more info, go to thebridgebiblechurch.com.
In this thought-provoking monologue, host BT explores the concept of modern idols, particularly focusing on the algorithm as a new form of worship in our digital age. He draws parallels between ancient idol worship and contemporary technology, emphasizing how our attention and time are sacrificed at the altar of screens. The discussion delves into the psychological and societal implications of this phenomenon, urging listeners to reflect on their relationship with technology and the importance of conscious choice in what we worship.TakeawaysThe world needs a wake-up call.We have survived by hiding from them, but they are the gatekeepers.The algorithm reflects back to you what you want, what you fear.Idols are not neutral; they shape our desires.The algorithm feeds on outrage, lust, and fear.You become what you worship.The algorithm desires your attention and time.The algorithm is a mirror that shows your shadow.You can choose who to worship, even in a digital age.Idols promise power but ultimately leave you hollow.
AP correspondent Julie Walker reports a former 'American Idol' contestant is charged with murder in his wife's death.
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. The series concludes here as we fully establish the principle that parallels the events of Numbers and 1 Kings with the works and words of the Messiah Himself, as in John chapter 3. Using only biblical criteria and the patterns that we see, is the modern day "jesus," that promotes the abandoning of His Father's Instructions in any way deemed to be a false prophet/false messiah? If you're willing to ask some hard questions, now is the time to biblically define and discern who you follow. Will it be you be found walking in the ways of the true Messiah or duped to follow another? Let's find out.

In this episode, Dennis is joined by singer, actor and American Idol alum David Hernandez to talk about his new single and video "Beautiful 2.0," which features trans artist Mila Jam. David talks about his inspiration for re-recording the song, which he wrote and released in 2016, working with his former Harlem roommate Mila Jam, and how he feels much more comfortable on camera now than he did in 2016. He also talks his stint on American Idol in 2008, his favorite memory from the show, being on the same season as fellow out singer David Archuleta, how it blew up his life and the Idol connection that helped get him back on track. He also discusses his forays into acting, playing a serial killer in the Tubi horror movie Glamping. Other topics include: what he's learned about himself since getting sober a few years ago, his favorite Idol memory, appearing in Naked Boys Singing, his relationship to his voice, his "really weird childhood" and how it felt to get naked and pay homage to D'Angelo's "How Does It Feel" in his musical video "Special."
* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. When Messiah was telling us that He "did not come to abolish the Torah or the Prophets" was He declaring that He met the Deuteronomy criteria to be the true Prophet & Messiah of Yahweh? If so, what do we do with "mainstream Jesus" that purportedly "did away with the 'old' Law?" In the Book of Numbers we read of the Hebrew word "nase" or pole; banner; lifted ensign for all to see. This same word shows up again in Isaiah's writings and is used to speak directly of Messiah. Is there a mysterious connection to be made here or is it all just happenstance? Let's find out!

Pastor Richard Crisco | Rochester Christian ChurchWelcome to Rochester Christian Church Online! Today, Pastor Richard Crisco brings a powerful message titled Drinking The Calf.In this message, we confront a challenging truth: when we can't wait for God, when anxiety rises, and insecurity takes hold, we often create idols. Idol substitutes that feel safer, more controllable, and easier to manage. We don't just worship idols; we “drink” them in. And Scripture reminds us that we become like what we worship. Pastor Richard calls us to examine our hearts, surrender our need for control, and return to wholehearted trust in the one true God.Come expecting to be challenged, convicted, and drawn closer to the Lord as we learn to wait on Him with faith instead of fear.
ATEEZ's latest comeback has proven to be their most successful to date so far and that's thanks in large part to high album sales and streaming that led to a Triple Crown victory on the music shows in Korea and a #3 debut on the Billboard TOP 200.Their MV for "Adrenaline," the title track off of their 13th mini album, "Golden Hour: Part 4" achieved 10 million views within 24 hours and has since surpassed 38 million views on YouTube (as of our recording).

* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. Can the Jesus that most of us have inherited stand up against biblical testing and survive into the other side as authentic? Does the modern-day Messiah fulfil and adhere to the biblical criteria of a true prophet of the Most High or does he enact a new way to live? Is it one that leads people away from the same commandments that He perfectly obeyed? In this opening episode we'll establish some biblically foundational criteria for the Messiah. Criteria that many people have never heard nor considered. Will you be found willing to test the Messiah that you follow? Let's find out!
Are you exhausted from trying to look perfect and polished? I'm diving deep into the chokehold of performance and anxiety that keeps so many of us trapped. I'm calling out the Pharisee Complex—the dangerous lie that says excellence equals worthiness. It's time to trade in that prison of perfection for the radical freedom found in grace. I'm giving you the keys today, including three practical, one-thing-only steps to embrace wholeness over flawlessness. Key Takeaways for a Quick Win God desires wholeness (telios), not flawlessness. Stop striving to be perfect; start pursuing maturity and completeness. Perfectionism is a prison that limits our freedom; it's not a personality type, it's often a protection mechanism. Radical Repentance is the shift from a life of damage control to a life dependent on God's grace. Family, I love you and I'm cheering for you to walk in this new freedom. Don't keep this key to yourself! If this episode broke a chain in your life, you know someone else who needs to hear it.

Do you ever feel like you can't slow down… even when you want to? Like there's always more to do. More to fix. More to manage. More to prove. Maybe rest feels irresponsible. Maybe stopping feels unsafe. Maybe you don't know who you are if you're not being productive. In today's episode, we continue our series on the sneaky things that steal our joy by talking about another deeply praised idol in our culture: the idol of work. Not diligence. Not responsibility. Not doing what God has called you to do. But the kind of work that replaces trust, worth, and dependence on God. We talk about how work becomes an idol when: • Your value comes from how much you get done • You feel guilty when you rest • You carry constant pressure to do more • You use busyness to avoid what you feel • You believe everything depends on you This episode will help you: • Recognize where work has become your source of worth • Understand why striving never brings peace • See how busyness keeps you from God instead of drawing you to Him • Learn the difference between faithfulness and self-reliance • Begin practicing rest as trust, not laziness If you've been feeling driven, exhausted, or afraid to slow down — this episode will help you see what's really underneath it. You were never meant to carry everything. You were meant to walk with God. And that's where real peace is found. love, Brittany Ready to become a peaceful wife and Mama?

Tyler unpacks the need for us to lay down the idol of comfort & apathy and follow Jesus wholeheartedly.
Crispin shares from Matthew 20:20-28 and challenges us to ask ourselves what do we really want from closeness to Jesus and how we can avoid the temptation of status or power.
Whether or not you're a sports fan or not, you know a sports fan. So what does the Church teach about sports? Is it okay to watch or participate on Sundays? What about the Superbowl? When does it cross the line from recreation to sin? Hear Fr. Chris summarize this in a fun and easy-to-understand way!

In this episode of Two Strike Noise, Jeff and Mark explore the career of one of the most efficient pitchers in baseball history: Addie Joss. Known for his "corkscrew" delivery and a career ERA that remains the second-lowest of all time, Joss's life was cut short at just 31. The hosts detail the incredible 1911 Addie Joss Benefit Game, which brought together icons like Ty Cobb (in a borrowed jersey), Walter Johnson, and Cy Young for a cause that predated the official MLB All-Star Game by over two decades. Before the history lesson, the BP segment covers the recent passing of Tigers legend Mickey Lolich, a strange trivia bit about Ozzy Smith's fashion sense, and a look at Hall of Famers categorized by their home states.

American Idol runner up HunterGirl shares how an express ticket straight to Hollywood and clear signs from God showed up when she was at her weakest and changed everything. We talk about navigating the whirlwind of Idol and instant fame then doing the deeper work of finding herself again by integrating who she has always been with who she is becoming. Her new single Somewhere Wild was written from a place of feeling lost and discovering herself inside that lostness. We also touch on Pretty Much a raw relatable moment that speaks to the quiet insecurities so many women carry. She is a master songwriter putting real life and real faith into her music. We laughed we cried and had the best time getting to know HunterGirl.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#914. You may think you know how American Idol works… but Gabby Barrett explains how the audition process actually goes.This week on Off The Vine, Gabby takes us behind the scenes of Idol in a way you've probably never heard before — from how she was really discovered, to what happens before you ever stand in front of the judges, to competing on the show while falling for her now-husband.After Idol, we get into the song no label wanted… before it changed her life forever and suddenly everyone started calling. We also talk about what tour life looks like with three kids, how she writes heartbreak songs from a happy marriage, and how a John Mayer quote shaped why she never reveals who her songs are about.AND yes — there's an embarrassingly honest confession you won't see coming.Trust us, this is one of the good ones ;) (get it?).If you're LOVING this podcast, please follow and leave a rating and review below!
