Grab your torches, your questionable treasure maps, and maybe a chisel or two (for research purposes), because this week Hysteria 51 returns with regular episodes as we digs into Burrows Cave — Southern Illinois' most controversial cavern of supposed mysteries. From alleged ancient tablets to world-changing artifacts no one can ever seem to produce on command, this saga has everything: secret chambers, wild treasure legends, feuding researchers, and enough fringe archaeology to make Indiana Jones ask for a transfer.Brent, David, and Conspiracy Bot tunnel into the strange history, the skeptical takedowns, the die-hard believers, and the many, many reasons this cave might be more fiction than fossil record. But hey — that never stopped us before.Is Burrows Cave a hidden archaeological jackpot, an elaborate hoax, or just the Midwest being the Midwest? Grab your hard hat and find out as we descend into one of America's weirdest underground mysteries.Special thanks to this week's research sources:BooksBurrows, Russell E., and Fred Rydholm.

If anyone would know what it takes to be a modern-day “Renaissance Man”, it would be Doug Casey, who was described by his co-author as a mix of James Bond, Indiana Jones, and Socrates. His new book with Matt & Maxim Smith, “The Preparation”, is a workbook for families who know there is a better way to invest the most important years of a person's life than college. The four years are split into 16 cycles, where you will build a variety of skills, all while traveling the world to experience the culture and grow an international contact list. You will learn to fly a plane in Alaska, study to become a chef in Europe, sail around the tip of South America, learn to fight in Thailand, and get licensed to operate heavy machinery in the USA, all while becoming an EMT, cowboy, welder, hacker, and farmer. It is the ultimate education to make someone bulletproof to whatever the system throws our way. — Guest Links: The Preparation: https://amzn.to/477bSIc International Man: https://internationalman.com/ — Watch the video version on one of the Macroaggressions Channels: Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/Macroaggressions YouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UCn3GlVLKZtTkhLJkiuG7a-Q?si=DvKo2lcQhzo8Vuqu — MACRO & Charlie Robinson Links Hypocrazy Audiobook: https://amzn.to/4aogwms The Octopus of Global Control Audiobook: https://amzn.to/3xu0rMm Website: www.Macroaggressions.io Merch Store: https://macroaggressions.dashery.com/ Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/macroaggressionspodcast Activist Post Family Activist Post: www.ActivistPost.com Natural Blaze: www.NaturalBlaze.com Support Our Sponsors C60 Power: https://go.shopc60.com/PBGRT/KMKS9/ | Promo Code: MACRO Chemical Free Body: https://chemicalfreebody.com/macro/ | Promo Code: MACRO Wise Wolf Gold & Silver: https://macroaggressions.gold/ | (800) 426-1836 LegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.com EMP Shield: www.EMPShield.com | Promo Code: MACRO Christian Yordanov's Health Program: www.LiveLongerFormula.com/macro Above Phone: https://abovephone.com/macro/ Van Man: https://vanman.shop/?ref=MACRO | Promo Code: MACRO The Dollar Vigilante: https://dollarvigilante.spiffy.co/a/O3wCWenlXN/4471 Nesa's Hemp: www.NesasHemp.com | Promo Code: MACRO Augason Farms: https://augasonfarms.com/MACRO —

Tutankhamun's tomb was discovered by a water boy who serendipitously stumbled on a buried staircase in Egypt's Valley of the Kings on 4th November, 1922. It marked the greatest triumph in archaeologist Howard Carter's career, and unearthed dozens of priceless treasures. The loot included the famous golden death-mask - but also the Pharaoh's walking sticks, linen underwear, and uneaten chickpeas. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how the discovery kickstarted a Western interest in Egpytology that influenced fashion, design and art, and lead directly to Indiana Jones; ask whether Carter was a historian or a grave-robber; and dig into the so-called ‘Mummy's Curse'...

Enrico Colantoni brought warmth, candor, and craft to the stage at FanX Salt Lake in September 2025, moving from first-time motion capture on Indiana Jones and the Great Circle to lived-in stories from Veronica Mars, Flashpoint, and Person of Interest, blending practical acting insights with dry wit, a steady respect for the work, and genuine connection with the audience. Enrico recounts his first stab at motion capture on Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, cracking up about the clingy gray suit and the pure imagination it takes to act to a green void. The infamous Veronica Mars black eye turns out to be a street-hockey souvenir, and the father–daughter magic with Kristen Bell comes from leading with heart instead of tricks. Whether commanding in Flashpoint or charmingly dangerous in Person of Interest, he builds every role by finding the human first, even when the character would rather hide it. “It's my heart with different language. My heart in a different costume” - Enrico Colantoni Want more exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes stories from the people who bring your favorite characters to life?

Med ett kortare avstamp i verkligheten konstaterar vi snart att nazi-ockultism är en kitschig subgenre mer än något annat, sitt allvarliga namn till trots. Nils kallar The Keep från 1983 för ett trasigt mästerverk och blandar i en dos nostalgi i sin bedömning av Hellboy från 2004. Tomas kallar båda filmerna för röriga men är bara riktigt förtjust i den ena. Vi pratar också, bland mycket annat, kort om: runologi, pseudovetenskap, Tors hammare, Shock Waves, Indiana Jones, Död snö, In the Mouth of Madness, Manhunter, Ian McKellen, Scott Glenn, När lammen tystnar, Gabriel Byrne, Michael Mann, Alberta Watson, John Hurt, Guillermo del Toro, Doug Jones, Ron Perlman, Selma Blair och Rasputin. För patrons följer också prat om ytterligare två filmer där visst fokus läggs på monsterdesign och kreativa lösningar gjorda på minimala budgetar. Mycket nöje!
Min 4: LOS TIGRES (4 estrellas) En Los Tigres, Alberto Rodríguez vuelve a sumergirse -esta vez literalmente- en el territorio que mejor domina: el del drama social revestido de thriller. Tras La isla mínima o Modelo 77, el cineasta sevillano pone el foco en un mundo apenas explorado por el cine español, el de los buzos industriales que se juegan la vida en silencio bajo las aguas del puerto de Huelva. Antonio de la Torre encarna con su habitual magnetismo a un buzo veterano que, junto a su hermana -una impecable Bárbara Lennie-, se enfrenta al límite físico y moral de su oficio cuando descubren un alijo de cocaína en un petrolero hundido. A partir de ahí, el director construye un relato de atmósfera opresiva, cargado de tensión y verdad, que combina el pulso del cine de género con una mirada profundamente humana al sacrificio y la precariedad laboral. Min 14 CUERPOS LOCOS (1 estrella) La directora Ana Murugarren se adentra en el terreno de la comedia familiar con Cuerpos Locos, un relato construido sobre el clásico intercambio de identidades que esta vez enfrenta a una niña de diez años, Ana, y su futura madrastra, Sara. Cuando ambos cuerpos se cruzan por una extraña tormenta electromagnética, la jueza deberá sobrevivir al mundo infantil y la niña al entorno del juzgado, en un choque de perspectivas que va de la adversidad a la comprensión mutua. El reparto, encabezado por Paz Padilla, con la participación de Antonio Resines, Ricardo Castella y otros nombres destacados del cine español, se mueve con soltura en una propuesta visualmente ambiciosa para su género --la presencia de efectos especiales y localizaciones en el País Vasco amplían el marco habitual de la comedia--, aportando dinamismo aunque sin escapar del esquema familiar de manual. MIn 17: TOGETHER (3,5 estrellas) En su ópera prima, el director Michael Shanks ofrece un relato inquietante de horror corporal que explora la dependencia emocional y la disolución de identidad en pareja. Alison Brie y Dave Franco â€"que además son pareja en la vida realâ€" interpretan a Millie y Tim, quienes se trasladan al campo buscando un nuevo comienzo. Lo que arranca como un intento de renovación se convierte en un descenso hacia lo extraño cuando descubren una cueva y un agua que desencadenan mutaciones físicas y simbólicas: el cuerpo se convierte en metáfora de unión, transformación y terror. Min 23: A PESAR DE TI (2'5 estrellas) Dirigida por Josh Boone, esta adaptación de la novela de Colleen Hoover reúne a Allison Williams (Morgan Grant), Mckenna Grace (Clara Grant) y Dave Franco (Jonah Sullivan) en una historia que parte de una familia aparentemente estable: madre, hija adolescente y padre. Morgan, que en su juventud dejó de lado sus sueños para asumir la maternidad, ve cómo su relación con Clara se tensa conforme la joven crece y rechaza el camino que su madre le trazó. Cuando un accidente trágico arrolla la vida familiar y emerge una traición inesperada, madre e hija quedan obligadas a reconstruirse mientras se aferran a lo que aún les queda. Min 27: ESA COSA CON ALAS (3 estrellas) En Esa cosa con alas, el director Dylan Southern propone un filme que mezcla el drama emocional con lo sobrenatural y el terror psicológico. Benedict Cumberbatch interpreta a un padre que, tras la repentina muerte de su esposa, se ve obligado a cuidar solo de sus dos hijos mientras una presencia inquietante se apodera lentamente de su hogar. El guion juega con la ambigüedad: ¿es la aparición unánime de su culpa, del duelo acumulado o un ente real que se alimenta del miedo? El reparto incluye además figuras como David Thewlis, cuya voz aporta a lo perturbador de la historia, y Sam Spruell, en un papel que tensiona aún más la fragilidad del protagonista. La trama se estructura con sobriedad y tensión creciente, permitiendo que la atmósfera â€"más que el susto fácilâ€" sea la que conduzca el viaje hacia una devastación interna. Min 32: RECIÉN NACIDAS (4 estrellas) En Recién nacidas, los hermanos belgas Jean-Pierre Dardenne y Luc Dardenne regresan al cine social con una mirada coral impactante: cinco adolescentes â€"Jessica, Perla, Julie, Ariane y NaÃma" conviven en un centro materno mientras enfrentan el reto de criar a sus hijos nacidos de circunstancias difíciles. La película se desarrolla en espacios austeros, casi de documental, y apuesta por el realismo puro al mostrar la precariedad, la ausencia paterna, las adicciones o el pasado traumático de estas jóvenes. El reparto, considerablemente formado por actrices no profesionales o poco conocidos como Elsa Houben, Janaína Halloy, Samia Hilmi, Lucie Laruelle y Babette Verbeek aporta frescura y autenticidad al relato. Los Dardenne, que firman tanto dirección como guión, emplean su característico estilo de cámara cercana al cuerpo y al silencio, sin grandes adornos, buscando que la verdad de los personajes se imponga. Min 35: MONSIEUR AZNAVOUR (3 estrellas) En Monsieur Aznavour, los directores Mehdi Idir y Grand Corps Malade trazan con pulso firme el ascenso de Charles Aznavour desde sus humildes orígenes como hijo de refugiados armenios hasta convertirse en leyenda de la canción francesa. Protagonizada por Tahar Rahim â€"quien encarna al artista con intensidad y convicciónâ€" la cinta despliega la lucha constante de un hombre cuya voz parecía no tener cabida en su tiempo y que, sin embargo, se negó a escuchar ese veredicto. Su encuentro con Édith Piaf se convierte en la bisagra de una carrera forjada en escenarios pequeños, sacrificios familiares y una voluntad que desafiaba toda norma. La película no solo recrea los éxitos y la consagración del protagonista, sino también las raíces invisibles de su mito: el exilio, la pobreza, la creación musical fuera de los márgenes, todo ello bajo una estética cuidada, fotográfica y sobria que sirve de marco a la emoción. Min 37: EL EFECTO DE LAS GUERRERAS K-POP (3 estrellas) Hablamos con Raquel Hernández del fenómeno provocado en Netflix por Las guerreras K-pop, dirigida por Maggie Kang y Chris Appelhans, se presenta un mundo vibrante que fusiona el espectáculo del K-pop con la acción sobrenatural más desenfadada. La trama gira en torno a las superestrellas del pop coreano Rumi, Mira y Zoey, quienes llevan una doble vida: por el día llenan estadios y seducen multitudes como el grupo HUNTR/X, y por la noche se convierten en cazadoras de demonios para proteger a sus fans de amenazas ocultas. Su impacto en la plataforma ha sido tal entre los seguidores que este fin de semana se ha estrenado en varias salas españolas en formato karaoke. Min 40: LA PELI DE TU VIDA: CON INMA CUESTA La actriz española de cine, teatro y televisión reconocida por su versatilidad y magnetismo interpretativo, premiada en el reciente Festival Abycine 2025, atiende cara a cara la petición de Estamos de Cine y nos cuenta porqué considera 'Tómbola' (Luis Lucía. 1962) el título que marcó su amor y dedicación al cine. Min 47: BSO "TRILOGÍA INDIANA JONES" Y ya que hace justo una semana, Aitor Arregi, el Moriarti más aventurero, apostó por Indiana Jones como la "trilogía de su vida", tenemos en bandeja rendir homenaje a la aportación del gran John Williams para las tres primeras entregas. Ángel Luque se frota las manos desde que escuchó el veredicto de Arregi en Estamos de Cine. Ahora nos toca disfrutarlo

We're heartbroken to say goodbye to one of our artistic heroes—and a true friend of the show—Drew Struzan. Known around the world for his unforgettable movie posters, Drew's brush brought to life the magic of Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Back to the Future, Blade Runner, Harry Potter, and so many more films that shaped generations. A legend in every sense, Drew received countless honors throughout his career, including multiple awards and his induction into the Society of Illustrators Hall of Fame. We were lucky enough to have him as one of Sidebar's very first big guests, and his kindness and humility stayed with us ever since. He was truly one of the greats, and we'll miss him dearly. Drew passed away on October 13, 2025. Our heartfelt condolences go out to his wife, Dylan, and to all of his family and friends.
In our latest tribute, Janet, John, (and Pen) celebrate the life and career of the actor who played one of the most iconic villians in horror film history... Tony Todd! Desperately desiring to be an actor since he was a little boy, this New England native went from working at the Artisits Collective as a teen to joining the Eugene O'Neill Actors Institute to hone his acting skills. At 28, this brilliant character actor landed in New York City and in two weeks was working on stage in equity shows: playing in Shakespeare's greats or the latest new plays. He was later discovered by Oliver Stone and switched to a life of film, soon becoming a beloved member of Star-Trek and a big star from one of the scariest horror remakes ever. His amazing skills and complex character work in Candyman (1992) would take him on 30-year-old journey with 4 spectacular sequels. He is also well know for his roles in other fantastic films, video games, and shows such as Night of the Living Dead (1990), the Final Destination series (2000-2025), Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009), Star-Trek: The Next Generation (1990-1991), The Flash (2014-2023), and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle (2024).

Recorded live at the Comixology Originals booth during New York Comic Con 2025, Jace sits down with acclaimed writer Mark Guggenheim to discuss his imaginative new series The Adventures of the Ulysses Monarch. Described as an Indiana Jones-style adventure set in the year 3026, the story blends pulpy treasure-hunting with sci-fi wonder as future archaeologists uncover the “ancient” relics of our own 21st century. Guggenheim talks about balancing the spectacle and emotion that drive the book, highlighting the dynamic art by Harvey Tolibao and vibrant colors from Mark Englert, along with the snarky charm of the robot sidekick Francis. He also teases the possibility of another volume as conversations with Comixology continue and shares how readers can explore more of his creative process through his Legal Dispatch newsletter on Substack. It's a lively NYCC conversation that captures the fun, imagination, and emotional heart behind Ulysses Monarch.

AUDIO TRANSCRIPT Open those Bibles up to the book of 1 Corinthians. We're going to be in chapter 2.Let's just pause for a moment.And I'm going to ask that you would please pray for me to be faithful to communicate God's Word accurately and clearly.I will pray for you to have a heart open to receive what God said in His Word.Alright? Let's pray.Father, there are so many things that compete for our attention and devotion.Give us a hunger for your Word, because it is through your Word that we know you.So I pray, Father, that our appetites would be for nothing but the bread of your Word.Let us dial into what your teaching is here in this passage, Father. We pray in Jesus' name.Amen.Amen.1 Corinthians chapter 2, are you there?I was today years old when I learned what that phrase meant.How many people have heard that? I was today years old. How many have heard that one? How many of you used that?Some of you are like, I don't know what you're talking about. Well, maybe you're not hip like Justin Cady,knowing all the vernacular of the children.But let me give you an example. I was today years old when I learned that on a box of tic-tacs,do you know when you open it up, there's this little oval in here? Do you know what that's for?That is to serve the tic-tac. Did you know that?Have you been just eating your tic-tac straight from the box like a wolf?Did you know that you're supposed to use this thing to...Ta-da!Maybe you can flick it in your mouth.Never mind.I'm going to give you, in all seriousness, the biggest and most shocking thing.The whole phrase I was today years old means there's something I should have known.I'm just finding out this thing that I should have known my whole life and wow, it changes everything.Well, here's the biggest one of all time.Did you know that you have the ability to take power out of the cross of Jesus Christ?Did you know that? You might be leaving here today saying I was today years old when I learned.I can empty the cross of Jesus Christ of its power. Do you realize you have that ability?The Bible says we do have that ability. Look back at chapter 1 verse 17.We covered this a couple of weeks ago, but very briefly because I knew we would be hitting it hard this week.But chapter 1 verse 17, Paul says, "For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel,and not with words of eloquent wisdom lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power."What? I can take power away from the cross of Christ? That's what he said.How can I take power away from the cross? How can I empty the cross of Christ of power?He tells us right here in verse 17 by relying on eloquent wisdom.Look at chapter 2. We're going to look at the first five verses, but I want us to read it all first.I want us to be very clear what the Lord is saying here.Paul says through inspiration of the Holy Spirit, "And when I came to you, brothers,did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God with lofty speech or wisdom.For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.And I was with you in weakness and in fear and much trembling, and my speech and my message were notimplausible words of wisdom but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power.That your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God."See a theme there? Over and over and over he's talking about wisdom.And you're like, "Whoa, whoa, whoa, hang on, hang on, timeout Pastor Jeff, hang on."I thought wisdom was a good thing, right?And we've had whole sermon series on wisdom and there's books in the Bible called wisdom literature.I thought wisdom was a good thing. Why are we poo-pooing wisdom here today, Pastor Jeff?Well, wisdom is one of those words that can have different connotations depending on the context.A lot of words like that, right? Like the word aggressive.Is that a good word or a bad word?Well, depends on where we're using it, right? It's great if you're playing hockey.It's bad if you're in a meeting. See?Or how about the word judge? You hear that word judge, is judging good or bad?Well, depends how you use it. We are commanded to judge to discern.But we are forbidden to judge in the sense of criticizing people like we talked about in the sermon on the Mount.So you see, judge is bad or good depending on the context. And it's the same with wisdom.Because the Bible is clear there is God's wisdom and there is man's wisdom.And the obvious point of this passage, all circles around this idea of not man's worldly, earthly wisdom.That's the point. He says it in verse 1. He says it in verse 4. He says it in verse 5.So to sum up this passage, here's what Paul is saying.He's saying, "I didn't come proclaiming man's wisdom. My message was not in man's wisdom and your faith can't be in man's wisdom."You're like, "What's he saying? What's the problem here? Why is he so adamant about this?"Well, you have to understand something about the Greeks.You have to understand something about the people that lived in Corinth.You see, for them, public speaking was entertainment and competition.Now please dial in here, because if you miss this, you're going to be so confused as we go through these verses.Public speaking was entertainment and competition.They would actually compete for money and prizes and fame with public speaking.So for the Greeks, those in Corinth, public speaking was putting on a show.Public speaking was a performance.Remember, they didn't have TV.They weren't sitting down to entertaining themselves by watching the Judge Judy or whatever.They didn't have the internet where they would sit on their phone and death scroll through countless videos about cats.That's not how they were entertained.They were entertained in the Greek culture by two things, really.Sports, we get that, right? But their other form of entertainment was public speech.And public speech, listen, public speech was evaluated on eloquence.We get that, because how many countless TV programs do we have about judging talent?Right? The Americans got talent and American Idol and The Voice, The Mass Singer, what else is there?All these shows where, you know, so you think you can dance, we're constantly evaluating the talent level of people on these programs.Public speaking was that in Corinth.Now, do you see the issue?Paul came to them with a speech, the Gospel.He came to them with a speech and he came to a culture that evaluates a speech based on the performance of the performer.So if you look at this passage again, I'm going to look at it again, just abbreviating it, but you could substitute this phrase where it talks about wisdom.You could substitute putting on a show. That's what he was talking about here.Paul's saying, "When I came to you, brothers, I did not come proclaiming you the testimony of God by putting on a show."And then down in verse 4, "My speech and my message was not about putting on a show."And then in verse 5, "Your faith might not rest in the show, but the power of God."You see? That was the issue for that culture.And you're like, "Phew! Stinks for that culture because I get a... You know what, Pastor Jeff, it would be absolutely horrible.I mean, that would be terrible if people today turned the Gospel into our show.I mean, could you imagine how tacky it would be if people made church a performance?We don't have to stretch our imagination, do we?What do you see when you go to a lot of churches and Bible conferences, right?Fog machines and lights and how about a man pole dancing and swallowing swords?That happened at a men's conference.And oh, every spring I gag as I see churches promoting this summer at such and such church, summer at the movies.Life lessons according to Toy Story 2.I'm like, "Really? You've preached through the whole Bible and you're out of material and now we're turning to Pixar.Really?We made it into a show.Come to our church. We're dropping Easter eggs out of a helicopter.Oh, you know what the worst is. This could be... And this is personal opinion. This is the worst.The pastors that get on stage dressed up like a character.Have you seen this? Have you seen this nonsense?Pastor Taylor sent me a video for the record making fun of it.He sent me a video of a pastor that got on stage and their whole thing was Indiana Jones.And look, I love Indiana Jones, but the pastor was dressed like Indiana Jones.It was so stupid. He had a whip and he's just standing up there.It was so foolish.I have a... Noa guy who's a pastor, local-ish.We're talking about what's happening in church, what's going on in your ministry right now.And he went on and on and on bragging. He bought an evil-can-evil costume and preached as evil-can-evil.I'm like, "Great. Did you have to spend 20 minutes explaining to the people under 60 who evil-can-evil is?"Like, "Really? That's church?"What are we doing?If you sit these people down that are putting on these performances, these pastors,that are putting on these performances, like, "Why are you doing this?Why are you standing on stage waving a silly whip around like Indiana Jones? What are you doing?"They would say, "Well, that's how I get people to church.""Hey, no need to thank me, Jesus. I have a brilliant plan to fill the seats."And just as sad, churchgoers applaud these gimmicks because they get attention, right?That's why we're sharing these videos. They get attention.Oh, but then we get out to do each other, don't we?He dressed like Indiana Jones next week, harvest."You come to church next week. I'm going to be dressed as Darth Vader."[sighs]Your faith is weak.Won't that be awesome?You're like, "No, Pastor Jeff, that would be stupid."And you're right.We're going to top the other guy, and then we're going to top ourselves, right?Okay, so my thing with Darth Vader, people are clapping and giggling for that.So what am I going to do next week that's better than that, right?Just like one of those Lord of the Ring elves or something, and we'll blast fireworks on stage.What are we doing?This is exactly what Paul's talking about here.This is the principle. Lofty speech, human wisdom, plausible words.It's making the gospel into a show in order to win people.Paul says, "I didn't do that when I came to you in the Harvest Bible Chapel.We're not doing that either."And somebody right now is like, "Oh, Pastor Jeff, come on, what's the big deal?"Lighten up.I mean, if it draws people to church,why wouldn't we apply a little worldly wisdom?Listen, we are not putting on a show.We are not putting on a show.That is a hill that I will die on.You're like, "Well, what's the issue?"Well, let's revisit the text here, and we're going to see it's a much bigger issue than you think.We're not putting on a show.Write some things down. Number one, because the show will replace God's message.That's why the show, the show will replace God's message.Look at the first two verses again.Paul says, "And I, when I came to you, brothers, did not come proclaiming to youthe testimony of God with lofty speech or wisdom, for I decided to know nothing among you."Except Jesus Christ and Him crucified."When I came to you, you can revisit this story."Acts chapter 17, Paul was in Athens and he preached and responds, "Not so great."Then Acts chapter 18, he goes to Corinth.He's alone and he's looking around and he's like, "This place is even worse than Athens."And Paul here is saying, "So when I came to you, did I come with the fancy talk?Did I come like your public speakers putting on a show for you?"He's like, "No, no, no, no, the Gospel isn't about that.I didn't come to you like one of your philosophers.I came to you as a witness of Jesus Christ."And I love this.What is it?He says, "For I decided."It wasn't a whim.It wasn't one of those tweak and go things, last minute change.He goes, "No, no, no, no, no.I made the decision ahead of time that I'm not going into Corinth and I'm not going to try to dazzle them into the kingdom."By the way, do you think Paul could have?Do you think he had the ability to dazzle people with the knowledge that he had?Yeah, he could have.He said, "I will not do that."So what was your plan, Paul?He tells us this was my plan, verse 2, "For I decided to know nothing among you."Except what?Say it.Jesus Christ and say it.Him crucified.That's it.That's all I wanted to know.That's it.The only thing I wanted to know.The only thing I wanted to teach.The only thing I wanted to talk about was Jesus Christ and Him crucified.You're like, "Oh, time out question.Isn't there more to the Bible than that?"I mean, isn't there more to the Bible than that?Nope, there's not.Listen, the cross of Jesus Christ is literally everything.Everything.How is it that a person is saved?How is it that a person can have their sins taken away and the promise of being in glory with their God forever?How does that happen?The cross of Jesus Christ.How do we know that God loves us?How do we know that the God who created us has a love and compassion and He really cares for us?How do we know?The cross of Jesus Christ.How do we know that God is holy, that God is a God of justice?How do we know that God always upholds His Word, always does what He says?How do we know that?The cross of Jesus Christ.How does God feel about sin?How does God feel about our rebellion, our thumbing, our noses at Him and our...How does God feel about our sin?Where do we get our answer? Shout it out.That was the weakest shout it out I've ever heard.Come on, you can even hit the Sunday School Answer here.How do we know how God feels about sin?Where do we look? Tell me.The cross!That tells us.You know, I was really hitting this this week, hard thinking,is there anything that's not finding its foundation in the cross?I couldn't think of anything.And somebody's like, well, how about money?How about money, Pastor Jeff?Does the cross speak to money?Yeah, it does.Why do we give?Because God is a God who expresses His love through giving.And the cross of Jesus Christ tells us why we should be generous givers.Read 2 Corinthians chapter 8.He talks all about that there.So yes, the cross is a foundation even for giving.Oh, okay, okay, Pastor Jeff.Very slick.What about marriage and sexuality?I bet the cross doesn't talk about that.Oh, you got me. No, you didn't.Who did Jesus die for?His bride.Jesus died so that He could have a bride that was spallus.And heaven is described as the marriage supper of the Lamb.And husbands are to conduct themselves in a home in the pattern of Christbecause the purpose of a marriage is to put on a graphic displayof the relationship Jesus has with the church.Husbands represent the self-sacrificing love of Jesus Christ to their wives.Do you see how the cross speaks to marriage?We could do this all day.Fight me.Fight me.Show me something.Show me something that the cross of Jesus Christ doesn't cover.Doesn't explain.Paul says, "I wanted to know nothing.I decided I'm not going to know anything except Christ and Him crucified."Then I'm going to tell you, church,it is absolutely baffling to me when I see all these goofy gimmicks that people are doing in churches.It's absolutely baffling to me when we're dressed up like Indiana Jonesor Evil Can Evil or Super Mario or whatever.It's absolutely baffling to me.I'm like, do you realize the message that we have in the Word of God?Do you know what this message is?The message is God spoke everything into existence.He created us in His image.We rebelled against Him so God in His love came to this earth as a manand demonstrated supernatural abilities proving who He was.And then in the ultimate act of love, He sacrificed Himself on the crossso that we could be forgiven and then they put Him in a tomb and He rose from the dead.And that's not it.Then He flies to heaven and He's making a place because He's going to come backand He's going to take us so that we can be there with Him forever in a place that's so glorious.And like, is there anything better than that?There's the greatest message in the world.And somehow we think it needs bling.We think we need some kind of a gimmick to make Jesus exciting.What are you talking about?That's Paul's point here.It's the greatest message and it always will be in any attempt to put on a show.It's not going to enhance the gospel. It's going to replace the gospel.You know what I mean by that?Take our good friend Indiana Jones.I hope you weren't in that service.But if you were, could you imagine what people were talking aboutwhen they walked out of church that day?Do you think they walked out of church going, you know,after watching the pastor get around and waving his silly little whip around?Do you think people walked out of church going, Jesus Christ is so awesome?Do you think they walked out of church going, oh how wonderful the salvation of Godthat He would so love us?I'll tell you what people said walking out of that church.People walked out going, man I got to find my temple of doom VHS.We've replaced the message of how to be safe from hell with nonsense to entertain people.Well, at harvest Bible Chapel, Bible is our middle name.We are committed to pillar number one, proclaiming the authority of God's word without apology.Why are we so committed to nothing but expository preaching, representing the word?Why are we so committed to that?Like why are you so hard-nosed about that?I'll give you three reasons why.Number one, because it's commanded.God said this is what we were to talk about.So that's what we're going to talk about.It's commanded.Second reason that we're so committed to the word of God is it's literally the only thing that's effective.God said He is watching over His word to perform in Jeremiah 1.God says Isaiah 55, that His word always accomplishes the purposes for which He sends it out.It's effective.Nothing else will change a person.But the Spirit of God working through the word of God.That's it. That's the only way change happens.There's another reason that we're so committed to the word of God is because it's unifying.In John 17, Jesus was praying for us, and Jesus said, "Sanctify them in the truth."Sanctify means set apart.Jesus said, "Regarding His people, regarding us, we are to be set apart in the truth."Like where do we find that?Right there, Jesus said it.As He was praying to His Father, He says, "Your word is truth."So Jesus said, "The thing that must unify us, church, isn't some gimmick or a favorite form of entertainment.The thing that must unify us is the word of God. Get under the word."That's why we're committed to that.And you know what? I got to tell you this personally.This is so freeing for me.This is so freeing.I don't have to wonder what to say to you.See, we don't get in our offices through the week and we're like,"Oh, Pastor Taylor, what do you think we should say this week?Let's come up with some really great thing that's going to really fire people up."We don't have to do that.We just have to share the word of God.It's so freeing. I don't have to think, "How do I top last week's show?"I mean, people were really entertained last week.How do I top that?It's freeing for you, too.It's freeing for you.We talk about witnessing.One of the main obstacles people have about witnessing,I hear this all the time, Pastor Taylor,you've heard it a billion times as well, give or take.But you know what people say about witnessing?They say, "I don't know what to say."I would share my faith, but I'll be honest with you.I don't really know what to say. Yes, you do.You know exactly what to say.What do I say?Try this. Try Paul's technique.Nothing but the cross. How about that?Nothing but the cross. Share that.Do you know about the cross? Share that.You know, when people come to you and they're like,"Well, you know what does the Bible say about politics?"And like, Republicans and Democrats, you're like,"Well, do you know that Jesus Christ died for your sins?Did you know that?"And then they're like, "Well, what does the Bible say about AI?"I mean, AI is kind of scary.What does the Bible say about that?And your response is,"Do you know that God loved you so muchthat He sent His Son to die on the cross for you?That's how much God loves you."And they're like, "Well, does the Bible say anythingabout in vitro fertilization?"And she's like, "No, no, no. All I know is that Jesus died for you."That's all we need to know.We're not putting on a show because the showwill replace God's message of the cross of Christ.Number two, write this one down.We're not putting on a show because the show will replace God's methods.The show will replace God's methods.Look at verses 3 and 4 again.He says, "And I was with you in weakness and in fearand much trembling.And my speech and my message were notin plausible words of wisdom,but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power."Paul reminds them, he didn't come to themlike a boxer going to the ring.Like, "I fired up."Yeah!You see, there's really goofy, like,WWE professional wrestlers.Do you ever see these guys that come to the ring with the fireworks?Yeah!Yeah, and Paul's like, "That's not how I came to you.Like some goofy entertainer."He says, "I came to you. Use the three words, 'weakness,' fear, and trembling."What do you mean?What do you mean by that?Well, you look at how it's used biblically.Trembling is talking about mental anxietyover an important issue.That's when you feel something heavy in your heart and mind.You feel something so heavy that it's like weighing on you.And here's what I mean.Have you ever had the unfortunate business of having to give somebody newsyou didn't want to give them?Unfortunately, in my role, I've had to do that too many times.And it's so heavy on you.You're driving to the person's house because you have to tell them face to facethat there's been a terrible accident and things don't look good,that heaviness that you have while you're heading there.And delivering the message, just...That's what he's talking about.Or the heaviness, like if you have to confront somebody about their sin.Like, it's been brought to my attention that so-and-so is involved in a relationshipthat shouldn't be involved in.Now I gotta go talk to them about that.You see, you don't walk into that like a WWE wrestler, do you?Like, "Hey, guess what? I got news for you.There's been a terrible tragedy!"Like, what's the matter with you?No, that's the heaviness of having to deliver a serious message.That's what he's talking about here.Paul says, "This was my posture when I was with you.Not exactly the celebrity showman that the Corinthians would have preferred."Paul is saying, "I came in weakness because I didn't want to put on a showbecause I didn't want to get in God's way."Why, Paul? Why?Because the show will replace God's methods.You're like, "Well, what is God's method for reaching lost people?What is God's method?"It's the foolishness of preaching from a weak preacher.That's God's method.Did you ever say something like magnanimous, you have this really idealistic convictionand then the word of God kind of changes your mind on that?What I mean is, in past time I've said things like,"Well, you know what? The messenger is insignificant. The message is everything."After my study this week, I'm not so convinced of that anymore.Yeah, look, we established already that the message cannot be replaced.We already talked about that.But you cannot separate gospel content and gospel communication.Because according to this, in 117 that we already talked about at the beginning,you can suppress the power of the gospel message if attention is taken away from thatand put on the speaker.And you're like, "Whoa, whoa, whoa, hang on. Hang on a second, Pastor Jeff.Are you telling me that popular people can't be faithful preachers?"Sure they can.So long as the spotlight isn't on them, you see.You're like, "Well, where's the line? Where's the line?"It's a hard issue. I'm not sure that we can see the line, but I know that God can.And I know that there is a difference between preaching Christ and showing off.And please hear me. You don't need to dress up as Indiana Jones to show off in church.You can dress like Pastor Taylor.You know, you really hurt his feelings by laughing just there.There is nothing wrong with how you're dressed.I'm sorry, Pastor Taylor.Do you know what this thing is for in a tic-tac box?You put the tic-tac in there.Moving right along.You don't need to dress up as Indiana Jones to show off.You can dress like Pastor Taylor, but unlike Pastor Taylor, you can try to make yourself the star.Unlike Pastor Taylor, you can put all the attention on yourself.You know, the message of the cross, you know what the message of the cross is?The message of the cross is about the humiliation of God.And preaching and witnessing require the humiliation of man.If you're sitting here today and you're like, "Well, I'm not really anything special.I'm just a sinner saved by grace."Well, if that's your attitude, then that's exactly why God wants to speak through you.Because you've found nothing to boast of in yourself.And instead, all you can do is exalt Jesus Christ.The power is in the gospel, which is why it must be preached by someonewho isn't going to drown out the gospel message with the sound of tuning their own horn.So we're not putting on a show because the show will replace God's method of preaching through weak men.One more.We're not putting on a show, number three, because the show will replace God's mission.Look at verse 5.He says that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.See here Paul's landing. This is the end game.The results.Here's the bottom line.If you're dazzled by men, your faith is going to be in men.But if you are dazzled over the power of God, if your experience is with the power of God,then your faith is going to be in God.What you win people with is what you win them to.See we're not putting on a show, why?Because if we win people with the show, with entertainment, we've won them to entertainment.And guess why people are going to come to harvest?Because they want entertained.But if we win people with Jesus, we've won them to Jesus.And people are going to come to harvest because they want to know Jesus.Putting on a show replaces God's mission.Instead of making disciples of Jesus, I'm making disciples of me.There's a very pragmatic problem with that too.If the church is replacing God's mission for the show, it leaves the converts vulnerable.Why? Because there's always a more impressive performance.There's always a more charismatic personality out there.There's always a better show somewhere else.And that's why, listen, that's why people bounce around churches.People bounce around churches looking for something more entertaining.They're not going to use the word entertaining.They want something that is going to be more appealing to them.We hear it all the time."Oh Pastor Jeff, we love harvest.We love the people here and we love you.But such and such church has a better playground.We've got little kids and they need better facilities like that with playground and stuff.I had one family.I said, "Oh Pastor Jeff, we love harvest."But he said, "My kid, he had a 12 year old kid.He said, "My kid loves the concert atmosphere at such and such church, so we're going there."I'm like, "First of all, Dad,I seriously doubt the wisdom of leaving the decision of the spiritual direction of the familyin the lap of the most immature member of the family.That's a problem.But is that how we're picking churches who has the best concert?You see, if the faith of the responders is produced by the preacher's show,what if the preacher leaves?What happens when that preacher retires?What are we going to do now?Worse, what if the preacher fails?See, you replace the mission for the showand Paul says you're missing out on God's power.God's power, you're like, "Well, what is the power?What is the power?"You're like, "Oh, I know this one.I know what the power is because I've seen this on TV."Who's that guy that's...He slaps people and heals them?What's his name? Benny Hill?Hen, Benny Hinn.Benny Hill's different.I've seen that show.He slaps the people and they're down.And then he waves at a group of people and they all fall down.That's the power of God, right?Well, back in chapter 1 verse 18 of Pastor Taylor preached on last week,we learned what the power of God is.You know what the power of God is?The gospel.The gospel. Romans 1.16, the gospel is the power of God.You're like, "Well, do we see the power of God at Harvest Bible Chapel?"Yeah.Every time that we have a baptism serviceand you have somebody stepping in to the tubgoing, "I turn from my sin and I receive Jesus Christ, I am born again."You're witnessing the power of God.Every time somebody chooses forgiveness,"I was wronged, I was offended, I want to forgive, I want the relationship restored."Every time that happens, you're seeing the power of God.Every time somebody uses spiritual gifts to minister to others in the church,you're seeing the power of God.You see, the power of God is a changed life.You're the power of the Holy Spirit.That only comes from Jesus.In church, we are doing a major disservice to peopleto replace people experiencing His power with people enjoying my performance.I have no power at all.I can't save anyone.I can't change anyone.Only Jesus Christ can do that through His Spirit.So we're not putting on a showbecause the show will replace God's mission of making disciples of Jesus.The Harvest Bible Chapel, there's no tricks for results herebecause the Gospel just simply points to the bloodied Jesus Christ on the crossand says, "There, right there on the cross is your salvation.There on the cross is your example.There on the cross is your victory.There on the cross is your power."So this is a call for discernment.Look, are you new here?You're a first-time visitor here today?Have you been bouncing around visiting churches?And this is just one of many that you've been checking out.Or maybe you're somebody who's been attending for a while.Maybe you're even a member who's been thinking about moving on.I just want to ask you a couple of questions in light of what God says here.What are you looking for in a church?Wait, wait, maybe that's not the right question.Maybe the better question is what should you be looking for in a church?More fireworks?More pizazz?Or is Jesus what you really want?Are you saying, you know, I want to know the Gospel.I want nothing more than to experience the power of God in my life.Well, wherever you choose to worship,I would encourage you to make your decision based on the right factors.I have no say over what other churches do.I have some say here in a harvest Bible chapel.We're not putting on a show.We buy our heads as the worship team makes their way back up.Father in heaven, we bow before you as people who live in a culturebombarded by entertainment.Bombarded by churches trying to win people through goofy stuff.Father, your word is so clear on that in this passage.That your Gospel doesn't need help.It's just He's proclaimed.Father, I'm sorry for all the times that I thought it was about me.I'm sorry God for all the times that I was trying to factor in some element of creativityor something to really wow people and your Gospel doesn't need that.My efforts will just replace the pure, simple, clear message of the crucified Christ.Father, I pray for all of us that we would have the discernment that only comes from your spirit.That as we are evaluating where we are worshiping and how we are worshiping,we're evaluating the methods that you've laid out in your Word.We're evaluating the mission that you've laid out in your Word.We're evaluating the message that you've given us, Father.Give us discernment.We pray in Jesus' name, amen.

La Turksploitation est un phénomène unique du cinéma turc, né dans les années 1970 et 1980, où des réalisateurs ont entrepris de copier les grands succès occidentaux – notamment américains – sans autorisation, ni moyens techniques, ni budget. Le mot vient de la contraction de Turkey et exploitation, un terme déjà utilisé à Hollywood pour désigner des films à petit budget exploitant des thèmes à la mode. La Turksploitation, c'est donc l'art de faire du Star Wars ou du Superman… sans Lucas ni Warner Bros.Tout commence dans le contexte du cinéma Yeşilçam, l'âge d'or du film turc populaire. À cette époque, la Turquie produit plusieurs centaines de films par an, mais l'industrie manque cruellement d'argent et de ressources techniques. Les importations de films étrangers sont limitées par la censure et les droits d'exploitation. Pour satisfaire la demande du public friand de super-héros, d'action ou de science-fiction, les studios turcs décident tout simplement de refaire les films occidentaux à leur manière, en les adaptant à la culture locale.Le résultat donne naissance à une série d'œuvres aussi improbables que légendaires. Le plus célèbre d'entre eux est Dünyayı Kurtaran Adam (L'homme qui sauva le monde, 1982), surnommé Turkish Star Wars. Le réalisateur Çetin İnanç y a littéralement inséré des extraits du Star Wars original dans son propre film, tout en empruntant la bande-son d'Indiana Jones. L'intrigue ? Deux héros turcs affrontent des extraterrestres en carton-pâte, dans un mélange d'arts martiaux, d'explosions bricolées et de décors désertiques. Ce film, devenu culte, incarne parfaitement l'esprit de la Turksploitation : audace, improvisation et passion du cinéma.Mais Turkish Star Wars n'est pas un cas isolé. La Turquie a produit un Turkish Superman (1979), un Turkish Rambo, un Turkish Spider-Man (3 Dev Adam, 1973) où Spider-Man devient un criminel sadique affrontant Captain America et le catcheur El Santo, ou encore des versions locales de E.T., Star Trek et Exorcist. Ces productions, tournées en quelques jours avec des acteurs peu connus, recyclaient les musiques et les affiches originales.L'esthétique de la Turksploitation repose sur le système D : montages approximatifs, effets spéciaux faits maison, dialogues surjoués, cascades improvisées. Mais malgré leur amateurisme, ces films témoignent d'un immense amour du cinéma et d'une volonté de s'approprier les mythes mondiaux.Redécouverte dans les années 2000 par les cinéphiles et les festivals de films cultes, la Turksploitation est aujourd'hui célébrée comme une forme d'art populaire brute et sincère — un cinéma sans moyens, mais pas sans imagination.

Abbey Road Studios in London, England was the world's first purpose-built recording studio. Opened way back in 1931, this building and the people inside have been at the cutting edge of recording technology for over 90s years. Abbey Road Studios is most famous for being where The Beatles recorded almost all of their music, but it also drove innovation with stereo recording, multitracks, editing, and the shift from analog to digital recording. In addition to all of those amazing Beatles records – which we'll get to – some other stuff recorded at Abbey Road includes Dark Side of the Moon and albums from Kanye West, Lady Gaga, Oasis, the Hollies, Radiohead, and the Zombies. Music scores for Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Marvel movies, and video game soundtracks for Halo, Call of Duty, and World of Warcraft. They even recorded some of Winston Churchill's famous speeches during World War II to help keep morale high. From classical roots to rock rebellion, Abbey Road's always been ahead of the game, rewriting rules along the way. So kick back, feel the beat, and join us as we explore the studio that turned sound into a revolution. Let's roll! Episode Playlist Check out our episode playlist here.

Despite the ongoing hardware "crisis," plenty of next generation hardware news continues to leak out of Xbox. This time, we have Project Magnus courtesy of Moore's Law Is Dead! Set to release in 2027, this console will (as expected) feature some Windows elements and go head-to-head with the pre-built PC market. To help break all of this down, Jimmy Champane of Deck Ready is here. Beyond Project Magnus, we get into a newly released piece of Xbox hardware in the Xbox Ally. Is it worth your money and what does it tell us about the future of Xbox's unified Windows approach? A lot, it seems! Beyond that, we tackle a new-ish structure for the show, covering everything from Xbox to PlayStation and Nintendo. Much of our show is shaped by you, so we hope you enjoy the inclusion and look forward to reading your thoughts. Please keep in mind that our timestamps are approximate, and will often be slightly off due to dynamic ad placement. 0:00:00 - Intro0:20:42 - Where did the former Zenimax Online devs go?0:30:06 - Call Of Duty is dropping SBMM0:42:23 - Halo art director delivers ominous message1:04:51 - Indiana Jones gets anniversary update1:10:17 - Everwild screenshots have leaked1:12:44 - Sucker Punch's future after Ghost Of Yotei1:27:46 - What is Bluepoint up to?1:31:34 - More Expedition 33 content on the way1:36:39 - Japan responds to rise of Sora AI1:44:05 - Assassin's Creed director quits over Tencent2:04:02 - Massive Pokémon leak2:18:14 - Switch 2 console sales update2:21:34 - Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game revealed2:24:59 - The Mindseye Aftermath2:30:18 - What We're Playing3:18:10 - Xbox's Project Magnus and PlayStation 6 are rumored to release in 20273:55:17 - Another week of Xbox hardware drama Learn more about your ad choices.

Ella al-Shamahi is one part Charles Darwin, one part Indiana Jones. She braves war zones and pirate-infested waters to collect fossils from prehistoric caves, fossils that help us understand the origin of our species. Her recent hit BBC / PBS series Human follows her around the globe trying to piece together the unlikely story of how early humans conquered the world. But Ella's own origins as an evolutionary biologist are equally unlikely. She sits down with us and tells us a story she has rarely shared publicly, about how she came to believe in evolution, and how much that belief cost her.
