Let's talk about major Fed news, Trump's shakeup, Fed independence, and Gov Cook....
We're told to be independent but not too independent...so what's the line between what helps us preserve our autonomy versus what keeps us out of partnership? We're diving into this topic that's near and dear to our hearts as two people who have built our own lives, boundaries and identities...yet still want to open ourselves up fully to another human being. We're being brutally honest about the areas that we struggle with vs what feels more like natural integration, signs of healthy independence, and how to strive for the sweet spot of interdependence with a partner.Are you a Maverick?

Is insurance really helping your practice grow—or holding it back? In this solo episode, Dr. Lauryn gets real about the hidden costs of staying in-network and why so many practice owners eventually face the hard choice of whether to go out of network. She shares personal lessons from running a clinic for 15 years, including a decade fully out of network, and reveals the freedoms and challenges that come with that shift.From the fear of audits to the problem of razor-thin margins, Lauryn dives into why leaving insurance isn't always about profitability at first—but why it often becomes essential for long-term sustainability. Whether you're considering dropping one payer or going fully cash-based, this episode will give you clarity, encouragement, and the real numbers to weigh before making the leap.Key TakeawaysGoing out of network can protect clinics from the constant threat of audits and unexpected clawbacks while giving owners more freedom to run care their way.Profitability depends on clear margins, not just patient volume—many providers unknowingly operate at a loss with certain insurance contracts.Transitioning out of insurance doesn't have to be all or nothing; dropping one or two problematic payers can be a smart first step.Cash-based practices attract more engaged patients, but require strong scripts and systems to handle objections and sustain growth.Resources:The ONE thing every provider needs to launch online!

This week on bigcitysmalltown, host Bob Rivard speaks with Brandon Seale, a San Antonio-based energy entrepreneur and historian, about one of Texas's most consequential yet least understood events: the 1813 Battle of Medina. Seale discusses his years-long efforts to locate the lost battlefield and the surprising discoveries that are reshaping the historical understanding of early Texas.Bob and Brandon trace how an executive leading cross-border energy projects became deeply invested in uncovering the stories that shaped San Antonio's identity, especially during the Mexican War of Independence era. From the multidisciplinary search for the Medina battlefield—combining archival research, metal detecting, and veteran-led archaeological surveying—to the broader challenges of public memory and historical trauma, the conversation explores the lasting impact of forgotten chapters in Texas history.They cover:• The latest developments in the quest to confirm the Battle of Medina's location• Why the Battle of Medina has been largely left out of public consciousness• The historical trauma and political complexities that have obscured the story for generations• The collaborative efforts between local historical commissions, archaeologists, and veteran organizations to recover artifacts and restore the battle's narrative• How new scholarship and public projects—like a forthcoming documentary and legislative initiatives—are bringing renewed attention to this pivotal moment• The connections between San Antonio's unique past, its indigenous roots, and ongoing efforts to reflect a more complete history in educational and cultural institutionsThis episode offers an in-depth look at how San Antonio's history is being actively rediscovered—and reconsidered—for a new generation.

Witness to Yesterday (The Champlain Society Podcast on Canadian History)
Greg Marchildon speaks with Michael A. McDonnell about his book, Masters of Empire: Great Lakes Indians and the Making of America. Masters of Empire by Michael A. McDonnell reveals the vital role played by the native peoples of the Great Lakes in the history of North America. Though less well known than the Iroquois or Sioux, the Anishinaabeg, who lived across Lakes Michigan and Huron, were equally influential. Masters of Empire charts the story of one group, the Odawa, who settled at the straits between those two lakes, a hub for trade and diplomacy throughout the vast country west of Montreal known as the pays d'en haut. Through vivid depictions--all from a native perspective--of early skirmishes, the French and Indian War, and the American Revolution, Masters of Empire overturns our assumptions about colonial America. Michael A. McDonnell is an associate professor of history at the University of Sydney. He is the author of The Politics of War: Race, Class, and Conflict in Revolutionary Virginia, winner of the 2008 New South Wales Premier's History Prize, and coeditor of Remembering the Revolution: Memory, History, and Nation-Making from Independence to the Civil War. His work was included in the Best American History Essays 2008 and he won the Lester Cappon Prize for the best article published in the William and Mary Quarterly in 2006. He has received numerous research scholarships and grants in the United States and Australia and has served as a distinguished lecturer for the Organization of American Historians. He lives in Sydney, Australia. Image Credit: Hill and Wang If you like our work, please consider supporting it: bit.ly/support_WTY.

Strength&Solidarity is taking a break and that gives us a chance to re-up some favourite episodes.Here's Coda #3 in which US civil rights veteran Charles Cobb Jr looks back to 1963 and a chance meeting between some young black activists in the segregated south and a future Kenyan Vice President. That event went on to be celebrated in a song that became a favourite in the civil rights movement.And don't forget there are nearly 50 codas for you to explore – young activist poets in Sudan's brilliant but sadly defeated revolution; a young US lawyer recalling the profound connection he found in 1980s El Salvador; a human rights ED who took up his guitar and sang us a lovely Mercedes Sosa song – not to mention favourite poems, music and activities – from wild swimming to reading to the kids at bedtime. It's a treasure trove for you to explore - take ten minutes out to decompress and experience someone-else's world.
Outcome independence is a concept or mindset where you detach your well-being, happiness, and self-worth from external sources. It's giving less f*cks and letting go of needing things to be a certain way to be happy. It's releasing attachment to "happiness" as a destination you can strive and achieve your way into. Instead, you focus on the journey, allowing and enjoying the unfolding, and being present for your life today. You do things because you enjoy them, NOT because of what you are trying to achieve or extract from them.In this week's show, I'm sharing all about how to find freedom and flow with outcome independence. This one shift could radically amplify your enjoyment of life, y'all!

Send us a textWhat happens when a veteran ICU nurse combines her medical expertise with 30 years of dog training experience? Pauline Hoegler reveals the remarkable answer on this episode of Kindness Matters.Pauline's organization, GOFIDog (Golden Opportunities for Independence), has developed innovative programs that harness the extraordinary capabilities of Golden Retrievers to serve communities in ways that transform lives daily. The stories she shares will leave you astonished at what these four-legged heroes accomplish.Picture a police officer approaching a child in crisis—a situation that typically escalates to ambulance calls, emergency room visits, or even arrests. Now imagine that same scenario, but with a Golden Retriever by the officer's side. Pauline shares real examples where these Community Resource Dogs completely transformed outcomes, de-escalating volatile situations and creating connections where traditional approaches failed. "Within five minutes, he was back in class," she explains about one remarkable intervention with an autistic student.Beyond community policing, Pauline's facility dogs support students from elementary school through college, while her service dogs assist people with disabilities, PTSD, and medical conditions like seizure disorders. The science behind these capabilities is fascinating—these dogs can literally smell biochemical changes that signal an oncoming seizure, allowing them to alert handlers before symptoms appear.What makes Pauline's approach unique is her commitment to creating successful human-dog partnerships through comprehensive training that goes beyond basic commands. By focusing on problem-solving skills and building deep bonds, she's achieved success rates far beyond industry standards.Want to experience some kindness in action? Listen now to discover how these golden-hearted heroes are changing communities one wet nose at a time.

The 1790s remain one of the most important decades in modern Irish history. After years of rising tensions, the island was rocked by the 1798 Rebellion—the largest uprising in Irish history. In just a few months, more people perished than in all the conflicts of the 20th century combined.These events continue to cast a long shadow over life in Ireland and are central to understanding this island in the 21st century. In many ways, 1798 is our foundational story. So much of what followed from the War of Independence to the Troubles sought to answer questions first posed by Ireland's revolutionary generation of the 1790s. What does it mean to be Irish? Why is our history so deeply divided along religious lines? And what lies at the heart of the bitterness that has marked modern Anglo-Irish relations?In my gripping new series, starting next week, I'll take you deep into life in 18th-century Ireland and uncover the dramatic story of the 1798 Rebellion. Through the gripping narratives of people who lived through these remarkable events, we'll explore the anti-Catholic Penal Laws, the impact of the American and French Revolutions, and how Ireland's republican movement emerged in the 1790s.It's a story dominated by larger-than-life characters from the great-grandson of an English king who became Ireland's leading revolutionary, to the spies and agents who betrayed friends and comrades. The series navigates global revolutions and the brutal realities of war and sectarianism in Ireland.Whether you're new to Irish history or searching for fresh insights, this series brings the drama, the characters, and the high stakes of the 1790s to life. Join me as we uncover how the 1798 Rebellion changed Ireland forever. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Disha Karnad Jani interviews Quentin Skinner on his new book Liberty as Independence: The Making and Unmaking of a Political Ideal (Cambridge University Press, 2025). In this book, Skinner traces how liberty as a political ideal became tied to independence and the absence of coercion through the political upheavals of early modern England, debates about absolute monarchy, the American Revolution, discussions of women's independence under the law, and the role of slavery in defining what it meant to be free.
AP Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports it appears a Trump nominee to the Federal Reserve's board is heading toward Senate confirmation.
This Day in Legal History: Sewing Machine PatentOn this day in legal history, September 10, 1846, Elias Howe was granted U.S. Patent No. 3640 for his invention of the lockstitch sewing machine. Though not the first to envision mechanical sewing, Howe's design was the first to successfully automate stitching in a way that was both efficient and commercially viable. His machine used a needle with the eye at the point and a shuttle beneath the cloth to form a lockstitch—features that would become industry standards. Despite the innovation, Howe initially struggled to find financial backers and spent time in England attempting to sell his invention, with little success.When he returned to the United States, Howe discovered that other manufacturers had begun producing similar machines. Chief among them was Isaac Singer, who had developed and begun marketing a sewing machine that closely mirrored Howe's patented design. In 1854, Howe sued Singer for patent infringement, launching one of the first high-profile intellectual property battles in American history. The case turned on whether Singer's improvements to the machine still relied on Howe's patented mechanism.The court ultimately ruled in Howe's favor, affirming that Singer's use of the lockstitch principle did indeed infringe upon Howe's patent. Howe was awarded substantial royalties from Singer and other manufacturers using similar technology, securing both recognition and financial reward for his invention. This case set a foundational precedent for the enforceability of patent rights and underscored the economic stakes of intellectual property in the Industrial Age. By the time his patent expired, Howe had amassed a considerable fortune and had firmly established the legal and commercial viability of inventorship in a rapidly mechanizing society.A federal judge has temporarily blocked President Donald Trump from removing Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, marking an early legal defeat for the administration in a case that could have far-reaching consequences for the Fed's independence. U.S. District Judge Jia Cobb ruled that the administration's justification—allegations of mortgage fraud committed before Cook took office—did not clearly meet the legal standard for removal. The law governing the Federal Reserve allows governors to be removed only “for cause,” a term not explicitly defined, and this is the first time its limits are being tested in court.Cook, the first Black woman to serve as a Fed governor, has denied all fraud allegations and is suing both Trump and the Fed, arguing the move is politically motivated due to her monetary policy views. Her legal team argues that even if the mortgage claims were accurate, they predate her Senate confirmation and therefore do not constitute grounds for removal. The White House contends that the president has broad authority to dismiss Fed governors and that this issue should not be subject to judicial review.Judge Cobb's ruling allows Cook to remain in her position while the case proceeds and emphasized that the claims did not pertain to her conduct as a sitting Board member. The Department of Justice has opened a criminal probe into the mortgage allegations, issuing subpoenas from Georgia and Michigan. The case could ultimately reach the Supreme Court and may redefine limits on presidential power over the central bank. Legal experts and Fed supporters view the ruling as a significant moment in affirming the institution's independence from political interference.US judge temporarily blocks Trump from removing Fed Governor Cook | ReutersTrump Can't Fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook for Now, Judge Says (1)The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to fast-track the review of the legality of President Trump's global tariff policies, setting up a pivotal case over the limits of presidential power in trade. The Court will evaluate whether Trump unlawfully used the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA)—a 1977 law traditionally applied to sanction foreign adversaries—to justify tariffs aimed at reducing trade deficits and pressuring countries over issues like drug trafficking. Lower courts have ruled that Trump overstepped, arguing that IEEPA doesn't grant presidents broad tariff authority and that such actions violate the Constitution's assignment of trade powers to Congress.The Justice Department, appealing the rulings, claims that stripping Trump of this power would weaken the country's defenses against economic threats. In contrast, the challengers—including small businesses, a toy company, and 12 Democrat-led states—argue that only Congress can impose tariffs and that Trump's interpretation of the law is too expansive. The case invokes the Supreme Court's “major questions” doctrine, which requires clear congressional authorization for executive actions of large economic and political consequence.Oral arguments are scheduled for early November, with the Court moving unusually quickly to address the matter. Tariffs remain in place during the legal process. The decision could reshape the scope of executive authority over trade policy and have long-term effects on global markets, U.S. trade relationships, and the national economy. With trillions of dollars in duties at stake, the outcome may also impact future uses of emergency economic powers by presidents.US Supreme Court to decide legality of Trump's tariffs | ReutersA federal appeals court has mostly upheld a California law aimed at limiting social media use by minors, siding with the state over a legal challenge brought by tech industry group NetChoice. The law, known as the Protecting Our Kids from Social Media Addiction Act, prohibits platforms from offering so-called "addictive feeds" to users under 18 without parental consent. These feeds, powered by algorithms that tailor content to user behavior, are considered by lawmakers to pose mental health risks to children.NetChoice, whose members include major tech firms like Google, Meta, Netflix, and X (formerly Twitter), argued that the law is overly vague, unconstitutional, and violates companies' First Amendment rights. However, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals rejected most of these claims, saying the law's applications were not broadly unconstitutional and that the issue of algorithmic expression is fact-dependent.The court did strike down one provision requiring platforms to default children's accounts to hide likes and comments, finding it was not the least restrictive means of protecting mental health. It also declined to rule on a requirement that platforms verify users' ages, since that part of the law doesn't take effect until 2027.NetChoice expressed disappointment, saying the ruling gives government more control over online speech than parents. The court returned parts of the case to a lower court for further review. The decision represents a significant legal validation of California's attempt to regulate how minors interact with digital platforms.California limits on 'addictive' social media feeds for children largely upheld | ReutersA federal judge has blocked an attempt by the Trump administration to subpoena medical records of transgender minors who received gender-affirming care at Boston Children's Hospital. U.S. District Judge Myong Joun ruled that the Department of Justice's subpoena was issued in bad faith, stating its true purpose was to intimidate and interfere with Massachusetts' legal protections for gender-affirming care. The subpoena sought a wide range of sensitive data, including identifiable patient records from the past five and a half years.The DOJ claimed the records were needed to investigate possible healthcare fraud and off-label drug promotion, but the judge found that the scope of the request far exceeded what would be relevant for such an inquiry. Joun pointed to the administration's broader political stance against gender-affirming care, including President Trump's executive order just days after taking office and the DOJ's public commitment to targeting providers of what it called “radical gender experimentation.”Attorney General Pam Bondi announced in July that over 20 subpoenas had been issued nationwide to clinics treating transgender youth, seeking not only institutional practices but also personal patient data related to puberty blockers and hormone therapies. Boston Children's Hospital challenged the subpoena, arguing it was a violation of patient privacy and state protections. Judge Joun agreed, emphasizing that Massachusetts' constitution safeguards access to gender-affirming care and that the subpoena amounted to harassment under the guise of a legal investigation.Judge blocks Trump administration's subpoena of trans kids' medical records from Boston hospital This is a public episode.

Send us a textOkay, so you've probably heard the story: a New York mom lets her 9-year-old ride the subway alone… and the entire world loses its mind. That mom is my guest today, Lenore Skenazy, and she's been lovingly (and infamously) dubbed “The World's Worst Mom.” Spoiler: she's actually one of the bravest, funniest, and most sensible voices in parenting today.Lenore's simple act of trusting her kid sparked a global conversation about parenting, independence, and the culture of fear we've all been marinating in. She went from being vilified on morning shows to becoming the president of Let Grow and the author of Free Range Kids, a whole movement dedicated to giving kids back their confidence (and parents back their sanity).And honestly? Talking to her made me do a little gut-check of my own. When I imagined sending my son on the subway at 9, my first reaction was, “Oh hell no.” But then I thought about it—what was I actually afraid of? Abduction? Not really. More like him getting lost and maybe a little scared. And then I thought… wait. Isn't that kind of the point? To let him practice being lost and then figure it out? (Cue me rethinking all my “just let me do it for you” parenting moments.)In this episode, we dig into why we've become so terrified of letting kids do literally anything, how “worst-first” thinking has hijacked modern parenting, and why giving kids independence isn't neglect—it's actually the best gift we can give them. Lenore even tells me about a mom who was spoon-feeding her 10-year-old (yep, you read that right) and what happened when that kid finally learned to cut his own mango. Spoiler: it's glorious.If you've ever caught yourself hovering a little too close to your kids or wondering if you're “doing it wrong,” this episode is your friendly permission slip to breathe, back off a little, and let your kid surprise you. And if you're not a parent? Trust me, this convo still hits. It's really about fear, resilience, and how much we all grow when we're allowed to stumble a little.What's Inside:The wild story of how one subway ride made Lenore a global headlineWhy fear has become the default mode in modern parenting (and how to break free)The surprising ways overprotection backfires on kids' confidence and resiliencePractical steps from Lenore's Let Grow project that help families rebuild independence So here's the mic drop: are you living out of fear, or letting yourself and your kids grow into the badass humans you know you can be? If you've got a “world's worst mom” (or dad) story of your own, I want the tea. DM me on Instagram and let's laugh, cringe, and maybe rethink some of this parenting madness together.

Businessman and author T. Harv Eker once wrote, “Financial freedom is the ability to live the lifestyle you desire without having to work or rely on anyone else for money.”It's tempting to think that financial independence is the ultimate goal of life—but what does the Bible say? God's Word points us toward a far better kind of freedom.In recent years, financial independence has become a cultural ideal. People long to be self-sufficient, debt-free, and free to pursue their passions. While these desires can be wise, they also carry a subtle danger: believing we don't need anyone—including God.The Warning of the Rich FoolThis temptation isn't new. In Luke 12, Jesus told a parable about a wealthy man who thought he had “made it”:“I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and goods. And I will say to my soul, ‘You have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, and be merry.'”But God's response was sobering:“Fool! This night your soul is required of you, and the things you have prepared, whose will they be?”The man's sin wasn't wealth itself—it was trusting in wealth instead of God. His independence became his idol. In contrast, Proverbs 30 records a prayer from Agur:“Give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with the food that is needful for me, lest I be full and deny you and say, ‘Who is the Lord?' or lest I be poor and steal and profane the name of my God.”Agur understood the heart of stewardship: daily dependence on God. Too little can lead to desperation; too much can lead to pride. The goal isn't independence, but faithful reliance on the Lord.Three Questions to Evaluate Your GoalsAs you think about your own financial journey, consider these questions:Am I placing my trust in money? Retirement savings and emergency funds are wise, but security must come from God, not a balance sheet.Am I trying to eliminate work entirely? Work is part of God's good design. Even in retirement, we're called to meaningful contribution.Am I paying off debt just for myself? Debt-free living is good, but its ultimate purpose is to gain the freedom to serve, give, and advance God's Kingdom.So, is financial independence biblical? It depends.If independence means replacing God with money, then no.If independence means freedom for generosity, stewardship, and dependence on God, then yes—it reflects something greater than wealth: a life rich toward God.Scripture reminds us that “He richly provides us with everything to enjoy” (1 Timothy 6:17) and that “every good and perfect gift is from above” (James 1:17). But those gifts were never meant to replace the Giver.A Resource for Going DeeperIf you'd like to explore this more, check out our 4-Week study, Rich Toward God.

You want to protect your child and give them a better life than you had. But sometimes, those good intentions backfire, leaving our teens less capable, less confident, and more dependent than we ever wanted.In this conversation with licensed clinical counselor and life coach Virginia Townsand, we explore how over-helping can unintentionally create learned helplessness, and what you can do instead to foster independence and resilience in your teen.Virginia and I talk about the difference between “doing for,” “doing with,” and letting your child “do for themselves,” and how shifting into that middle ground can build confidence, life skills, and self-advocacy. You'll walk away with practical tools you can start using today to stop rescuing and start empowering.In this episode on helping your teen build independence, we discuss:Why intention and impact often don't match when parenting teens;How over-helping can lead to learned helplessness;The role of discomfort in building resilience and confidence in teens and young adults;Practical strategies to move from “doing for” to “doing with”;The long-term benefits of letting your teen struggle and grow;And more!Resources mentioned in this episode:Connect with Virginia at www.janus-co.comLooking for support?

Come along with me on a walking tour of Independence, Missouri! We'll explore the historic Temple Lot Church (Hedrickites) and look at rare photographs from the Great Depression, when attempts were made to build the Jackson County Temple on the very cornerstones Joseph Smith laid in 1831. We'll also stop by the Stone Church, the oldest church in Missouri, built by Joseph Smith III, and visit the Remnant Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. As we walk, we'll trace the same steps once taken by Harry Truman, stopping at the United Nations Peace Plaza and the Auditorium he frequented after returning home from the presidency. Our journey will also take us to the Cutlerite Church and Temple. It's a unique chance to experience history, faith, and legacy all in one walk—you won't want to miss it! https://youtu.be/E-z1dRBPzqw Don't miss our other Tangent Trips! https://gospeltangents.com/mormon_history/gt-trips/ Copyright © 2025 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved From Zion to Truman Join us on an extended walking tour through Independence, Missouri, a city rich with pivotal moments in both the Restoration movement and American political history. From the foundational sites of early Mormonism to the stomping grounds of President Harry S. Truman, Independence offers a unique blend of historical insights. The Sacred Ground: Temple Lot Our journey begins at the Temple Lot, a site dedicated by the Mormon Prophet Joseph Smith and other Mormon leaders on August 3, 1831. This area was envisioned as the center of Zion, a grand temple complex. Today, it's surrounded by several significant structures, including the Community of Christ Auditorium and Temple, the LDS Stake Center, and LDS Visitor Center. The Temple Lot Church, sometimes known as the Hedrick-ites, stands prominently. This site has seen its share of trials; the first and second churches built here were both tragically destroyed by fire. A particularly heartbreaking incident in 1990 saw a former member reportedly burn down a church with the misguided belief that it would expedite the rebuilding of the temple. Plans for a larger temple with groundbreaking and footings were halted by the Great Depression, leaving a famous foundation hole. Interestingly, artifacts like stones, found by Otto Fetting, are on display, hinting at the never-realized Greek-style design. The envisioned temple's footprint was surprisingly small, especially compared to later temples like Nauvoo or Salt Lake. Inside the Temple Lot Visitor Center, you can see photographs of early leaders and even a display of the Book of Commandments, a precursor to the Doctrine and Covenants, which is apparently being phased out of print and may be de-canonized. Architectural and Spiritual Diversity: Other Churches of Independence Just a short distance away, we visit the Stone Church, which stands as the oldest church in Missouri built by Joseph Smith III. Its interior, with its large pipe organ, impressive stained-glass windows, and wooden pillars, might remind visitors of the Salt Lake Tabernacle, albeit on a smaller scale. The Remnant Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints has its headquarters in the former Chrisman High School, a building that also operates a lunch program for the homeless. A particularly unique stop is the Cutlerite Church, established by Alpheus Cutler in 1853. This small denomination, with fewer than a dozen members (most over 70), maintains a distinctive practice: they are one of the few churches outside the LDS Church and some polygamous groups that practice baptisms for the dead and endowments. Their building serves a dual purpose, with a chapel on the first floor and a "temple area" on the second, where sacred" temple work is conducted. Early Mormon Footprints and Conflicts Independence also holds the memory of early Mormon settlers and the tensions they faced. We visit the site of Edward Partridge's home and the relocated Jones Flournoy Home,...

Unannounced Live Gospel Tangents recently surprised viewers with an unannounced live stream including a JFS book giveaway. This is a "late night edition" that offers a whirlwind update on my extensive travels, upcoming interviews, and even some "breaking news" from the Temple Lot Church. Despite a busy travel schedule and a significant backlog of videos to edit, I managed to connect, give away a JFS book, and share exciting previews of what's to come! https://youtu.be/Jw_a2PA5jAU Recent Travels and Adventures I've been to several significant sites related to the Latter Day Saint movement: Community of Christ Conference in Independence, Missouri: This "super fun trip" included reactions to Stassi Cramm being ordained the new prophet in the Community of Christ. While there, I also visited the Temple Lot Church, meeting a "Kiwi" (New Zealander) who hinted at a possible interview. I also updated my tour with video, experimenting with cell phone cameras, promising many unpublished videos from Independence. Mormon History Association: Following Independence, he attended the Mormon History Association, where I toured several LDS churches, including a "really old" one in Ogden and Joseph Soderberg's church, known for President Hinckley's testimony story. Strangites in Wisconsin: Instead of Houston, I visited the Strangites in Wisconsin, staying with former guest Bill Shepard. He also hung out with David Boice and Gary Weber, who gave me a tour of the Hill of Promise, which the Strangites consider akin to the Hill Cumorah. ◦ The Voree Plates and the Hill of Promise: Gary Weber explained that the Hill of Promise is where James Strang found the Voree record. An angel reportedly told Strang where the record was buried beneath a tree, and respected townsmen witnessed its excavation. The record, encased in stone, crumbled upon exposure to air but was translated by Strang, telling the story of the "people of Raja Ramor". It described a great war, similar to the Hill Cumorah narrative, and a pictorial representation of priesthood structure mirroring that under Joseph Smith and James Strang. ◦ Prophetic Significance: The Hill of Promise is also sacred because Strang's revelations state that Daniel from the Bible will appear there someday to teach the saints and announce Christ's soon approaching second coming. ◦ Beaver Island Plans: David Boice & I visited Burlington (originally called Voree by Strang), where we saw several Strangite sites, including a plaque for a never-built temple. I'm planning a trip to Beaver Island, which was James Strang's later settlement where he was crowned king and assassinated. Gary Weber noted that there's "not a lot to see" on Beaver Island, mostly dirt roads, but a ferry or plane can take visitors there. Calgary/Cardston, Alberta, Canada: I flew to Calgary for my son's wedding and visited Cardston, Alberta, home to the first international temple for the LDS church. I received a book on Raymond, Alberta, a town settled by Raymond Knight (son of Newell Knight) and noted for being "practically Utah up in Canada" due to its 80% Mormon population. Cardston is compared to Manti due to its remote location and pioneer feel, with concerns about preserving its murals during an upcoming refurbishment when a new temple in Lethbridge opens. Beyond church history, I also enjoyed a Brewers-Cardinals baseball game with my friend Walter Reade. Upcoming Interviews and Content Viewers have much to look forward to from Gospel Tangents: John Turner Interview and Book Giveaway: John Turner's book, "Joseph Smith The Rise and Fall of an American Prophet," was released on Amazon. I've already conducted an interview with Turner, and part one was released. An autographed copy of this book was given away in a contest. Strangite Interviews: Interviews with Gary Weber and potentially other Strangite figures, including a man named Trevor, are in the pipeline.
Send us a text"All things... shall work together for your good." For the Saints in the 1830s, Independence, Missouri, was literally the promised land. It was “the center place” of Zion (see Doctrine and Covenants 57:3)—the city of God on earth—which they were making great sacrifices to build. To them, the gathering of Saints there was an exciting and glorious prelude to the Second Coming. But their neighbors in the area saw things differently. They took issue with the claim that God had given the land to the Saints, and they were uncomfortable with the political, economic, and social consequences of so many people from an unfamiliar religion moving into the area so quickly. Soon concern turned into threats, and threats turned into persecution and violence. In July 1833, the Church's printing office was destroyed, and in November the Saints were forced to abandon their homes in Jackson County, Missouri. Joseph Smith was over 800 miles away in Kirtland, and this news took weeks to reach him. But the Lord knew what was happening, and He revealed to His Prophet principles of peace and encouragement that would comfort the Saints—principles that can also help us when we face persecution, when our righteous desires go unfulfilled, or when we need a reminder that our daily afflictions will eventually, somehow, “work together for [our] good” (Doctrine and Covenants 98:3).See Saints, 1:171–93; “Waiting for the Word of the Lord,” Revelations in Context, 196–201.Support the show...

John Batchelor 09-03 segment 3.mp3 Guest: John Cochrane at the Hoover Institution. Federal Reserve Independence and Financial Regulation John Cochrane explores the complex debate on whether financial regulation should be integrated with or separated from monetary policy and less independent of Congress. He raises concerns about the Fed's independence, its failure to foresee the Silicon Valley Bank collapse, and the "too big to fail" phenomenon. Cochrane also discusses the risks of the Fed monetizing debt, its stance on stablecoins, and how its actions influence fiscal policy. 1906 PEKING

CONTINUED Professor John Cochrane: Professor John Cochrane of Hoover Institution addresses the fervent debate over the Federal Reserve's independence, with critics from both political extremes advocating for more accountability. He points to the Fed's expanded activities since 2008, including "subsidizing Wall Street," and alleged missteps that contributed to inflation and a problematic housing market. Cochrane argues for a more limited Fed, focused strictly on inflation, to preserve its independence and public trust, suggesting that its broadened scope jeopardizes its core mission and credibility. 1897 BANK OF ENGLAND PARLOR
