Podcasts about ignited

A few years ago I shared my Reinvention Series that was wildly popular (Ep. 301-306). It shared my 3.5 year period of going through a terribly difficult time that included a debilitating back injury, 2nd knee replacement, sleep apnea diagnosis, being burnt-out, and ultimately exiting Fitness Quest 10 from day-to-day operations. What I realize now is that it was all a setup for what is about to be NEXT. I recently made a huge decision that is setting up my next step in business & life. But I had to take the FIRST step before advancing to the NEXT step. After 25-years of being in my original location where I started my gym, I have decided to NOT renew my lease. There are several reasons why and I will share all of them on today's IMPACT SHOW episode. As a matter of fact, tune-in to today's first episode of a series called ‘Next Chapter Starts Now' that will end with one of the biggest 2 announcements in my entire fitness & coaching career. LITERALLY. Here is what I will discuss today: Why this is (kinda) my last podcast ever… What I believe is next? Top “10” Reflections on 25-Years in the “Roots” including… 1. Reggie Bush puking off the balcony 2. Training “LT” (LaDainian Tomlinson) for the 1st time 3. Training Drew Brees for the 1st time 4. The diamond girl coming into the gym to show me engagement rings 5. My Boom Box was a mainstay for years! 6. Svarpa Yoga and a curtain between my TD Fitness Classes and that yoga class.  7. The “Green Room” and the “Blue Room”—2 massage rooms 8. Melanie & I painting the ROOTS before we opened with our first golden retriever, Sid. 9. The power of Community. September 11, 2001. The fires in Scripps Ranch in 2003. Fires again in 2006. COMMUNITY in the good times and the tough times. . 10. Expanding…twice. First, 2002 Took over a breast-pump rental store. Gave us an extra 1,000 square feet. Then in 2006, we took over downstairs. It was a 500K expansion. I was scared and excited. 11. And Then Some: The 6-things I put on a Notecard to manifest an additional $10,000 per month when expanding. I end today's episode with 4 Coaching Questions for you to answer: 1. Have you ever moved from something that makes little or no sense to the outside world, but it feels so RIGHT on the inside world? 2. Have you ever been so scared to make a move that you deliberated for a while, or even too long, before making it? 3. How does FEAR play out in your world? Does it paralyze or crush you? Or does it propel you?4. What big decisions are you making today that you KNOW the answer “inside” but you aren't making them… (employee, expansion, sell, or acquire, grow, invest, etc.) and WHEN are you going to make those decisions? What is going to happen that will allow you to make them?

This week's IMPACT SHOW episode is something special. I'm coming to you LIVE from Christian Unified High School's Chapel Service where I had the honor of speaking to 800+ middle and high school students. Man, I LOVE firing up the youth and speaking LIFE into the next generation. There's nothing like the energy of a room full of young champions ready to grow, learn, and chase greatness. Regardless of age though, today's message will most likely resonate deeply. In this powerful chapel talk, I share a few of my favorite Words That Will Change Your Life—words that can shape your character, strengthen your faith, and fuel your dreams. We're talking about words like: Integrity – Doing what's right when no one is watching. Inspire – Speaking life and light into others. Truth – Getting into God's Word every single day. Sacrifice – Giving up something now for something greater later. I'M-Possible – Turning the impossible into I'm possible through faith. Belief – Choosing to believe in God's plan and the truth over the lies. Get Your Mind Right – Stacking wins daily through habits, training, and living inspired. Whether you're a student, parent, coach, or entrepreneur, these words aren't just for kids—they're for ALL of us. If you've been searching for a spark, some encouragement, or a spiritual reset, this episode will light you up from the inside out. Enjoy. If this message indeed fires you up, please share it forward. Send the podcast link to a student, athlete, or young person who needs some inspiration today. Or screenshot this episode, post it to your social media story, and tag us so we can celebrate with you.

It has just been confirmed that Jimmy Kimmel's late-night show will be reinstated after being taken off air, following an avalanche of outrage from Hollywood’s biggest stars. But before you start celebrating, there is a catch.Plus, it appears that the stars of two of our comfort shows, Gossip Girl and Gilmore Girls, are teaming up for a new movie, but it’s not quite above board yet, so allow us to explain.Speaking of Gossip Girl, Blake Lively posted a seemingly innocent collection of images to her Instagram account this week and the fallout has been immense. From divorce rumours, to new celebrity feuds and even Taylor Swift being dragged back into the fray again, we need to unpack exactly how this all blew up.

This week is special. I've got my lovely bride, Melanie Durkin, back on the podcast—and for good reason. September is Mental Health Awareness Month, and this conversation hits close to home. Melanie shares her powerful story of losing her 19-year-old brother to suicide back in 1998, how it rocked her world, and the healing journey that followed. Together, we open up about grief, faith, family, and the daily habits that support mental wellness. In this episode, we talk about: Breaking the stigma around mental health. Why losing her brother at a young age was so crippling and how that ultimately affected our relationship, and even our parenting. Using tragedy as fuel to create impact and hope. How to support loved ones who may be struggling. Why prayer, fitness, journaling, and healthy habits matter more than ever. Her top emotion/lesson learned a week after leaving serving in prison with Bob Goff and the Love Does team. Her feelings about finding out about Charlie Kirk, just as we walked out of prison. What brings you the most joy & happiness these days? 25-years of marriage this coming February. What would you say is the key? Why are you excited to speak at our Montana Retreat this November? Our vision for the IMPACT Foundation and what's next in 2026. This is raw, real, and heartfelt. Whether you've battled mental health challenges yourself or walked alongside someone who has, my hope is that this conversation gives you strength, encouragement, and a reminder—you're not alone. If this conversation resonated, please share it. You can share the link to the podcast with a family member or friend. Or you can post it on your SM story and tag us.

The scene at Charlie Kirk's memorial in Arizona was one of revival, unlike anything we've seen in the modern era.Every single speaker, including the president and vice president of the United States, uplifted the name of Christ and called Americans to virtue and repentance.Meanwhile, the Left continues its unhinged campaign to disparage Kirk before his wife can even bury him. But it's backfiring.People who had never heard from Kirk are now discovering him, specifically because the claims from the Left are so outlandish.The impact of this backfire is poised to change our nation forever.Support the show

Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comWhat explains the persistence and appeal of Christian patriarchy in contemporary America? In this episode, journalist and author Sarah Stankorb (Disobedient Women) examines the theological and institutional architecture surrounding **Doug Wilson, Christ Church, Canon Press, and the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches (CREC)*. Drawing on years of investigative reporting, Stankorb situates Moscow, Idaho, as both a local case study and a national model for the diffusion of patriarchal theology through publishing, education, and digital media.The conversation explores how discourses of submission and hierarchy provide not only a template for family and congregational life but also a framework for civic and political engagement. We analyze the implications of head-of-household voting, institutional cover-ups of abuse, and the theological rationales that normalize gendered power disparities. Stankorb highlights survivor narratives as essential sources of data, underscoring how authority structures can perpetuate cycles of harm under the guise of religious fidelity.By situating Wilson's project within broader debates over Christian nationalism, religious liberty, and political theology, this episode raises critical questions about the entanglement of faith and authoritarianism in the American public square.Disobedient Women:How a Small Group of Faithful Women Exposed Abuse, Brought Down Powerful Pastors, and Ignited an Evangelical Reckoninghttps://bookshop.org/a/112456/9781546003816Articles by Sarah:https://www.vice.com/en/article/inside-the-church-that-preaches-wives-need-to-be-led-with-a-firm-hand/https://www.elle.com/life-love/opinions-features/a64637668/tradwives-escaping-patriarchy-social-media-interview-2025/ Support the show

I just got back from prison. Yep—you read that right. Melanie and I, alongside legendary author & philanthropist Bob Goff and the Love Does team, spent a full day inside San Quentin State Prison in northern CA. And let me tell you, it was one of the most powerful, life-changing experiences you could only imagine. Today's episode is raw, real, and fresh—we recorded it just days after getting back. You'll hear from both me and Melanie as we share what we saw, what we felt, and the incredible lessons we learned from the men inside those walls, many of them who have life-sentences. Before diving in, I've got three coaching questions for you that deal with the 7-lessons we will share today (Please keep them in mind WHILE you are listening to this episode): What are your greatest ambitions and dreams? What is your hope and where are you placing your hope these days? What are your fears…and what's your relationship with fear? Here are some of the lessons and take-aways we brought home from San Quentin and will discuss in Episode 444: The Power of a Greeting – One hug. One moment. One welcome can change everything. Wait until you hear this one! The Yard is Where It's At – Raw humanity on display: boxing, baseball, running, workouts, conversations, and even the “pigeon guy.” Reform & Rehabilitation Work – Hundreds of programs, degrees, certifications, and initiatives giving men hope and purpose inside the walls. Communication Matters – No phones. No distractions. Just presence, depth, and real conversation. The Power of a Small Group – Stories of Max, Jesse, and others reminded us that dreams of family, freedom, and redemption are universal. The Power of One Conversation – Sometimes a single word of encouragement, one moment of presence, can alter a life's trajectory. The Power of a Mission – What Bob Goff and “Love Does” is doing to build schools across the globe inspired Melanie and I to ask: “How can the Durkin IMPACT Foundation do even more? Listen in… At the heart of it all, this trip reminded me of something Pastor Miles McPherson told me years ago: “All people—prisoners, homeless, troubled, broken—they are ALL God's people, made in His image.” So true. Melanie and I left San Quentin in deep gratitude and with a burning question: How can we do more? How can we serve in ways that create even greater IMPACT? So, I'll leave you with one more question today: Where and how can YOU show up, serve, and give back to make the biggest impact also? Thanks for listening, my friends. Please share this one—it's a message we all need to hear.

You're in for a very special conversation today. I've got my man Brett Klika back in the IMPACT house. You may remember him from Episode 327 where he shared his raw, heart-wrenching story of love, loss, and life after the sudden passing of his wife, Lisa. That was nearly three years ago. And today, Brett's back—and this time, he's bringing some incredible news, wisdom, and HOPE.  Brett has just released his brand-new book Energy 100, and let me tell you—it is powerful. It's already a bestseller and it's changing lives left and right. This isn't just a book; it's Brett's journey of going from absolute exhaustion and grief to becoming energized, purposeful, and intentional again. And now, he's helping thousands of people do the same. In today's episode, we dive deep into: How Brett went from survival mode (just trying to make it to lunch each day) to thriving with a renewed vision for his future. The 3 Pillars of Energy—Biological Energy, Awareness, and Intention—and how they can radically shift your life. Why chasing “busy” and someone else's version of success is draining your soul (and how to flip the script). What it means to live with purpose when everything you thought was permanent gets ripped away. Practical exercises from Energy 100 that will help you move from burned out to fired up. And yes—we even talk about crazy travel stories, being intentional as a parent, and the powerful lessons Brett has learned from raising his amazing daughter, Maddie. This episode is raw, real, and ridiculously inspiring. If you've ever felt exhausted, lost, or like you've hit zero momentum—this is for YOU. Friends, if today's conversation brought you value, here's what I encourage you to do: Grab Brett's book Energy 100 (and the companion journal) on Amazon today.

✨ New Episode of History Ignited ✨Today, we dive into the story of Peyton Place—the scandalous book, blockbuster movie, and groundbreaking TV series that pulled back the curtain on small-town secrets in the 1950s and 60s.From Grace Metalious' bold novel to Hollywood's Oscar-nominated film, and the primetime TV soap that launched Mia Farrow's career—Peyton Place changed how America talked about family, gender, and hidden truths.What do YOU think? Was Peyton Place just scandal—or a spark for change? Send us a text

Die Nachfolger Jesu hielten zwei Gebetstreffen ab. Das eine war voller Glauben, das andere nicht. Gottes Treue und Güte sind wichtiger als unser Glaube: Er goss seinen Geist aus und vollbrachte Wunder!The followers of Jesus held two prayer meetings. One was filled with faith, and the other was not. God's faithfulness and goodness are more important than our faith — He poured out His Spirit and performedmiracles!Sprecher/Speaker: Rob ForbesBibeltext/Bible text: Apostelgeschichte 4,23-31 und 12,6-17

If you've ever wondered how to fully step into the best version of yourself — before the world even sees it — this episode is for you. One of my mentees, Brady Hutchins flips the script and interviews me on everything from overcoming limiting beliefs, to staying present in every interaction, to finding your God-given purpose. You'll hear raw, behind- the-scenes, never before told stories from my experiences coaching elite athletes like Drew Brees, LaDainian Tomlinson, and Jordan Love, as well as lessons that apply to anyone — from pro athletes to parents, entrepreneurs, and everyday leaders. This is a conversation about the stuff you don't see on TV — the pain, the setbacks, the faith, and the relentless mindset it takes to keep going when the voices in your head say, “I can't.” Here are the big questions Coach Hutchins asks me at his recent Retreat held at IMPACT-X Performance (Huntington Beach, CA): What are the most common limiting beliefs you've seen — even in high performers? We talk about the “I can't” voice that lives in all of us and how to shut it down.  How can someone start owning their potential now, even before the evidence shows up? We dig into the idea of being him (or her) before you're him (or her) — and what that looks like in everyday life. How do you maintain energy and presence whether you're with NFL MVPs or brand-new clients? I share some of my behind-the-scenes hacks and why every person is important and the power of truly listening. Can you share a behind-the-scenes story from your time with a pro athlete? From Drew Brees' shoulder injury and devastating personal loss… to his Super Bowl win, we talk about the unseen grit and faith it took to get there. What's a more current example of an athlete's life off the field? The untold story of Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love, his personal tragedy, and his mission to use his platform to help others. How do you find mentors at the highest level? This is where I talk about how and why mentors often “appear” as you grow — and why you should seek them in multiple areas of life. How do you handle situations where you can't directly mentor someone who wants it? I share WHY every company should consider a continuum of coaching — from physical to mindset to leadership to life. How do you discover your deepest, divine purpose? We go deep into my own journey — from football dreams, to a career-ending injury, to finding my calling in helping people change their lives. This episode is going to challenge you to think differently about your identity, your purpose, and your path forward. Whether you're at the top of your game or just getting started, these principles will help you step more boldly into the person you were created to be. Friends, if today's conversation brings you value, here's what I ask: Please SHARE this episode on Instagram and tag me @ToddDurkin and @hutchfitcoaching— let us know your biggest takeaway.

What happens when life takes a surprise hard left turn and suddenly you're staring at a brand-new chapter? Do you crumble… or do you rise up and write the next page with faith, grit, and purpose? This week, I sit down with my great friend, powerhouse coach, and brother-in-iron, Bennie Wiley. Bennie and I worked together on NBC STRONG several years ago and I recently conducted this podcast interview just weeks after Bennie's tenure as the Head Football Strength & Conditioning Coach at USC (U. of Southern California) ended. Bennie's story is one of perseverance, transition, and staying grounded in faith through the messy middle of change. After decades in strength & conditioning — from the Dallas Cowboys to Oklahoma to USC — Bennie found himself navigating an unexpected career pivot. Instead of letting it break him, he's leaning into the unknown, rewriting his story, and chasing new passions with fire. We cover a TON in this heartfelt and inspiring conversation, including: The “next” chapter– how to prepare for what's coming even when you don't know what it is. Handling adversity – who you really are shows up when life gets hard. Family first – how Bennie is embracing time with his kids and creating moments he missed before. Bodybuilding lessons – what stepping on stage taught him about discipline, nutrition, and respecting ALL areas of fitness. Life wisdom – why keeping your circle tight and being fully present “where your feet are” changes everything. Writing vs. rewriting – Bennie's mindset shift that every chapter builds on the last, not erases it. This episode will fire you up to face your own next “season” with courage, clarity, and conviction. Bennie is raw, real, and full of life wisdom that will help you get your mind right and keep moving forward. Let's keep inspiring greatness, building purpose, and creating IMPACT together. Let's go up to IMPACT-X Performance Huntington Beach where we recently had a Retreat and listen to the interview with Coach Wylie NOW…   Tune in, take notes, and remember — you don't need to rewrite your story. You just need to keep writing it. Friends, if today's conversation brought you value, here's what I encourage you to do: 1.

The provided text argues against the widely accepted narrative that Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine was unprovoked. It asserts that Western actions, particularly NATO's eastward expansion and interference in Ukrainian politics, served as long-term provocations. The author cites warnings from figures like George Kennan and William Burns, alongside Vladimir Putin's own statements, highlighting Russia's consistent opposition to these moves. Furthermore, the text suggests that the 2014 Maidan uprising was not a purely spontaneous event but rather was significantly influenced by Washington, leading to a civil war in Donbas that predated the 2022 invasion. Ultimately, the source contends that the conflict was "cultivated, warned against, and made inevitable" by decades of Western policy, emphasizing that the narrative of an "unprovoked war" ignores crucial historical context.

Ding-ding. Let's get ready to rumble. We are in the octagon today and in the fight of your life. Sometimes life will punch you in the gut. You'll take hits financially, relationally, in business, or in your health. You might even sometimes feel like you're getting knocked out. But here's my question… Who's in your corner? The people you surround yourself with in both the good times and the bad times will make or break you. And today, I'm sharing a message that recently hit me at 1:30 in the morning, and forced me to pop-up, write down my thoughts, and later record a little Spittin' Fire (hence Ep. 440). So today, I'm talking about your “cornermen” (or corner-women) in your life — the thoroughbreds who lift you up, sharpen you, and help you to keep swinging…even when you're down & out. Or give you specific instruction on how to get out of a tough time. Specifically, I'll give you 5-moves you can make right now, whether you are winning the fight…or getting your butt kicked. Specifically, I'm going to share 5 moves that will help you do the following: How to get rid of the stinkin' thinkin and the scarcity mindset that can rob you when you in the middle of the “fight.” How to stay in “DREAM-mode” and allow your dreams to inspire and empower you to keep going. You gotta stay IN the fight. How to BE the person you are trying to attract. How to best cut the noise and narrow your focus. How to keep trusting God when you feel like He has deserted you. Friends, thank you for being in my corner…I sure am honored to be in yours. We're in this fight together — and I pray God gives us the strength, perseverance, and wisdom to win today's battles and tomorrow's wars. Today's episode will remind you of what you're made of, who's around you and the importance of STAYING IN THE FIGHT!! If this episode fires you up, here's how you can help spread the impact: 1.

Facing the relentless grip of meth addiction and the imminent threat of prison, Dr. Adi Jaffe's life seemed destined for darkness. Yet, from this adversity emerged a transformative story of resilience and redemption. Dr. Jaffe now stands as a guiding light for those grappling with addiction, demonstrating that recovery is a deeply personal journey. His candid reflections on childhood struggles with social anxiety and the turning points in his life illuminate the complex tapestry of experiences that fuel addiction. Through the Ignited Recovery program, Dr. Jaffe offers a beacon of hope, redefining success in recovery by focusing on fulfillment beyond mere abstinence.Traditional recovery methods, like the 12-step program, often fall short in addressing the psychological intricacies of addiction. As Dr. Jaffe recounts, facing personal crises, such as the stark reality of potential prison time, can catalyze profound change. By challenging the limitations of fear-based sobriety and exploring the depths of trauma and mental health disorders, he advocates for a recovery path that embraces psychological insights. His narrative encourages a departure from conventional sobriety narratives, emphasizing the need for a broader understanding of recovery that accommodates individual complexities.In this episode, you will hear:Dr. Adi Jaffe's transformative journey from meth addiction and potential prison time to earning a PhD in psychology.The deeply personal nature of addiction and the importance of individualized recovery paths.Challenges faced in traditional recovery programs and the limitations of fear-based sobriety.The pivotal moment of honesty with his father that marked the beginning of true accountability and change.Emphasis on recovery beyond mere abstinence, focusing on improved relationships and life satisfaction.The role of technology and platforms like Ignited in personalizing addiction recovery and making it more accessible.Follow and Review:We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

I'm coming at you mid-flight after one of the wildest weeks of my speaking career — and today, I'm giving you a look behind the curtain of what the keynote life really looks like. From missed flights and sleeping on airport benches… to one of the greatest honors of my speaking career: speaking to the United States Marine Corps. This episode is raw. Real. And straight from 35,000 feet. It's a story of extreme lows and unbelievable highs. It's a reminder that leadership, energy, and purpose aren't just for the stage — they're for the trenches. And I'm sharing it all — because chances are, you have probably felt and experienced those same extremes in your life too. In this episode, I specifically unpack: The real truth about keynote speaking — and why it's not always glamorous. The travel disaster that forced me to sleep in an airport (hello, humility!) My time with Supplement King and 75 rockstar franchise owners in Canada The powerful honor of speaking to 60+ Sergeant Majors in the U.S. Marine Corps My message to the Marines on mindset, leadership, standards, and energy The impact of attending the legendary “8th & I Parade” at the Marine Corps Barracks in Washington, D.C. The deep sense of pride, purpose, and presence that came from it all. Listen in as I take you on the road with me — through fatigue, faith, and full-circle moments that remind us why we do what we do. This isn't just an episode. It's a reminder and testament to the power of ‘Keep showing up,' no matter what. Life isn't just about the stage moments or highlight reels. It's about who you are when your back's against the wall. It's about how you lead when the mission's tough, the energy's low...or your flight's massively delayed or canceled. This week reminded me of something we all need to hear: The standard is the standard. And your energy is your legacy. So wherever you are — in the air, on the ground, or deep in the grind — keep showing up. Keep leading. And keep making IMPACT.

We're back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, Major League Soccer, and Canadian Premier League chat and interviews. It's been a dramatic week in the Vancouver football world and we have you covered with it all here on the podcast. The two biggest Whitecaps stories came off the pitch, with German legend Thomas Müller set to head to Vancouver in a shock transfer that would be the biggest signing in the club's history. Elsewhere, MLS commissioner Don Garber set tongues wagging when he said the Whitecaps' stadium situation was "not viable". We delve into both of those big stories on the show. On the pitch, the Whitecaps were back at home after five games on the road and came away with a dominant win over Sporting KC. We chat about the main talking points coming out of the match, Ranko Veselinovic being confirmed with a season-ending ACL injury, and Whitecaps head coach Jesper Sorensen talks to us about the All Star festivities, defensive cover for Ranko, and the well-needed break coming up for everyone. Our feature interview this week is with Sebastian Berhalter. It's been quite the summer and quite the first half of the year for the Whitecaps midfielder. We talk about his time away with the US national team, becoming a MLS All Star, and the season run in. Plus we hear from new interim Vancouver FC head coach Martin Nash as he takes over the reins of the CPL basement side after Afshin Ghotbi's dismissal. All of this and music-wise, Frank Black concludes his residency as our Album of the Month, we've Britpop songs from Ash and Perfume, and there's a Thomas Muller song in Wavelength. Here's the rundown for the main segments from the episode: 01.30: Intro - crazy times in Vancouver and L1BC's dramatic finale 08.20: Vancouver dominant in win over Kansas City - now they can rest 39.00: Jesper Sorensen's thoughts on the MLS All Star festivities 42.45: Sebastian Berhalter interview 53.30: Milkshake Man - Sebastian Berhalter 57.10: Don Garber ignites Whitecaps' stadium situation 75.15: Ranko Veselinovic out for season - Sorensen on the need to replace 104.00: Thomas Müller set to become the biggest signing in Whitecaps history 130.30: Afshin Ghotbi out, Martin Nash in at Vancouver FC 173.20: Wavelength - Los Brudalos x Anja Bavaria - Thomas Muller

Send us a textChampionship teams aren't born—they're built through transformative moments. When Olentangy High School was run-ruled by their rivals midway through the 2025 season, head coach Ryan Lucas watched something remarkable happen. His players, on their own accord, gathered in the locker room for an honest conversation about identity and commitment. That player-led meeting sparked a stunning turnaround—16 wins in their next 17 games culminating in an Ohio Division I State Championship.What separates merely talented teams from champions? Lucas reveals it's the unsexy fundamentals most programs overlook. While teams obsess over hitting, Olentangy dedicated precious practice time to base running and mastering catching and throwing. The results spoke volumes: they committed just one error through the entire tournament while scoring 34 runs and allowing only 5. Beyond strategic decisions, Lucas shares his evolution from a hard-nosed authoritarian to a relationship-focused leader who recognizes each player's unique personality. "I don't think the kids have changed," he reflects, "society has changed, and you can't be stubborn."The championship journey contains powerful lessons for coaches at any level. Lucas details his practical approach to the unavoidable challenge of playing time conversations, the specific drills that built their balanced attack, and the emotional Father's Day moment when he embraced his 12-year-old son after the final out. Whether you're building a high school program or coaching at any level, this masterclass in culture-building demonstrates how adversity, properly channeled, becomes the foundation for ultimate success. The blueprint for champions isn't just found in talent—it's discovered in how a team responds when everything isn't going their way.Support the show Follow: Twitter | Instagram @Athlete1Podcast Website - https://www.athlete1.net Sponsor: The Netting Professionals https://www.nettingpros.com

Brigitte Bardot: Fame, Fashion & Animal Rescue | History Ignited

Hello to you listening in Thornton, Colorado!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.Evildoing, like coercive power, depends on the cooperation, obedience, support, assent or at least passive tolerance of many people.  If you passively tolerate evildoing - or turn your face away - you are as much involved in it as the ones who perpetrate it. When you tolerate evildoing without protesting, you are cooperating, you are an accomplice.One who chose not to cooperate was Daniel Ellsberg, American military analyst and whistleblower, who saw clearly what had been going on with the 40 years of war in Vietnam. He chose to copy and then release over 7,000 pages of what became known as The Pentagon Papers. He exposed the long-running scandalous history of the United States' political and military involvement in Vietnam from 1945 to 1968 and secretly expanding its involvement with the bombing of  Cambodia and Laos.In 1971 then President Nixon filed suit to stop the NY Times and the Los Angeles Times from publishing the papers. He failed. The papers were published. Ellsberg himself was criminally indicted but charges were later dismissed.    “As Judge Byrne in Los Angles was issuing his dismissal of the indictment against Daniel Ellsberg, Nixon expressed his outrage and sense of betrayal: “ ..., on this national security thing, we have the rocky situation where the sonofabitch thief is made a national hero and is going to get off on a mistrial. And the New York Times gets a Pulitzer Prize for stealing documents ....They're trying to get at us with thieves. What in the name of God have we come to?” [SECRETS - A Memoir of Vietnam and the Pentagon Papers by Daniel Ellsberg, pub. 2002, pp. 456 to 457]    What we had come back to was a democratic republic - not an elected monarchy - a government under law, with Congress, the courts, and the press functioning to curtail executive abuses, as our Constitution envisioned. Moreover, for the first time in this or any country the legislature was casting its whole vote against an ongoing presidential war. It was reclaiming, through its control of the purse, the war power it had fecklessly delegated nine years earlier. Congress was stopping the bombing, and the war was going to end.” [SECRETS - A Memoir of Vietnam and the Pentagon Papers by Daniel Ellsberg, pub. 2002, pp. 456 to 457]        40 years of war ends - and Watergate is not far behind - scuttling Nixon's presidency.Individuals who choose to call evildoing what it is, who choose to withdraw their cooperation, ignite organized non-cooperation. That is where we are. We the People - an Army of Ordinary People - have ignited organized non-cooperation. We the People are fighting back and we're bringing our friends to topple the evildoing in the White House.    Thank you for listening and fighting alongside us for democracy! Click HERE to access a pdf copy of Secrets - A Memoir of Vietnam and the Pentagon PapersClick HERE to access VOICES: UCSB Arts & Lectures presents Daniel Ellsberg & SECRETS - Vietnam & the Pentagon Papers (October 25, 2002) You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Disneyland | The Happiest Place in History | History Ignited

In this interview, Yardena Schwartz discusses her book Ghosts of a Holy War: The 1929 Massacre in Palestine That Ignited the Arab-Israeli Conflict, offering a nuanced exploration of the 1929 Hebron massacre and its enduring impact on the region's history and present-day realities. Through a conversation that weaves personal narrative, historical analysis, and contemporary reflection, Schwartz illuminates how the events of 1929—when nearly 70 Jewish residents of Hebron were killed by their Arab neighbors—became a pivotal moment in the Arab-Israeli conflict. When the Shainberg family in Memphis, Tennessee, discovers a box of century-old letters from their deceased uncle David in their attic, a journey begins: not only to learn about the young man who wrote the letters from the holy city of Hebron in British Mandate Palestine, but about the massacre that took his life in 1929. Award-winning journalist Yardena Schwartz draws from these letters, along with extensive research and wide-ranging interviews of Israelis and Palestinians now living in Hebron, to tell a timely, captivating narrative.  In David's last letter home, on August 20, 1929 he wrote about a visit to the Western Wall in Jerusalem and said, “as we walked along Jerusalem's streets, we could almost imagine the streams of Jewish blood flowing at our feet, the horrible scenes of slaughter. Jewish sages, budding youth, tender babes in their mother's arms, all killed by the barbaric sword of the enemy". He was describing the slaughter from the Roman invasion of Jerusalem - yet just a few days later those same words could have been used to describe the scene in Hebron where David lost his life. The interview delves into the complexities of Hebron's past, once a city marked by coexistence, and the forces—propaganda, incitement, and shifting political landscapes—that transformed it into a symbol of division. Schwartz draws connections between the incitement and misinformation that fueled the violence in 1929 and the echoes of these dynamics in more recent events, such as the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks. She emphasizes the importance of challenging false narratives and understanding the human stories behind historical tragedies. Throughout the conversation, Schwartz reflects on the challenges of researching and recounting such a fraught history, the erasure and distortion of memory in both Jewish and Arab communities, and the enduring hope for peace despite a century of conflict. The interview provides listeners with a compelling entry point into the tangled roots of the Arab-Israeli conflict, highlighting why the lessons of 1929 remain urgently relevant today.

In this interview, Yardena Schwartz discusses her book Ghosts of a Holy War: The 1929 Massacre in Palestine That Ignited the Arab-Israeli Conflict, offering a nuanced exploration of the 1929 Hebron massacre and its enduring impact on the region's history and present-day realities. Through a conversation that weaves personal narrative, historical analysis, and contemporary reflection, Schwartz illuminates how the events of 1929—when nearly 70 Jewish residents of Hebron were killed by their Arab neighbors—became a pivotal moment in the Arab-Israeli conflict. When the Shainberg family in Memphis, Tennessee, discovers a box of century-old letters from their deceased uncle David in their attic, a journey begins: not only to learn about the young man who wrote the letters from the holy city of Hebron in British Mandate Palestine, but about the massacre that took his life in 1929. Award-winning journalist Yardena Schwartz draws from these letters, along with extensive research and wide-ranging interviews of Israelis and Palestinians now living in Hebron, to tell a timely, captivating narrative.  In David's last letter home, on August 20, 1929 he wrote about a visit to the Western Wall in Jerusalem and said, “as we walked along Jerusalem's streets, we could almost imagine the streams of Jewish blood flowing at our feet, the horrible scenes of slaughter. Jewish sages, budding youth, tender babes in their mother's arms, all killed by the barbaric sword of the enemy". He was describing the slaughter from the Roman invasion of Jerusalem - yet just a few days later those same words could have been used to describe the scene in Hebron where David lost his life. The interview delves into the complexities of Hebron's past, once a city marked by coexistence, and the forces—propaganda, incitement, and shifting political landscapes—that transformed it into a symbol of division. Schwartz draws connections between the incitement and misinformation that fueled the violence in 1929 and the echoes of these dynamics in more recent events, such as the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks. She emphasizes the importance of challenging false narratives and understanding the human stories behind historical tragedies.
