One half of the amazing and powerful rock duo Illiterate Light, Jeff, along with his bandmate Jake Cochran — who both pioneered the pedal powered and off-the-grid Bike Stage at Newport Folk — are cycling the 700 miles from the Shenandoah Valley all the way to Newport, Rhode Island for this year's Newport Folk Festival!!     Illiterate Light represents the true epic nature of the DIY spirit — that authenticity, energy and boundless creativity can truly bring people together and even seek to create change. Jeff talks to me about what this epic year of 2025 has already brought the band, and we discuss the importance of bike riding, their latest album, Arches, and what it meant to Jeff to play with My Morning Jacket at MMJ's One Big Holiday festival this past April.  -----------------------------------Show Notes:To follow The Road to Newport follow Illiterate Light on Instagram, @illiteratelightClick here for Illiterate Light tour datesFollow Roadcase on Instagram here:  @Roadcasepod---------------------------------Episode Chapters:00:00 Episode Intro with Host Josh Rosenberg06:40 The Road to Newport: Cycling and Music09:32 The Bike Stage at Newport Folk Festival12:24 Artists and Performances at the Festival15:17 The Significance of Participation and Community18:23 Personal Journeys and Environmental Awareness21:26 The Future of Cycling and Music24:22 Conclusion and Final Thoughts30:06 Biking Through Life and Music31:36 Community Engagement and Bike Advocacy32:50 Innovative Touring: The Road to Newport33:26 Partnerships and Equipment: Jamis Bikes36:06 Preparing for the Journey: Logistics and Challenges37:23 Exciting Performances: Upcoming Shows and Collaborations39:51 The Magic of Red Rocks: A Dream Come True42:30 Collaborating with Influences: My Morning Jacket44:30 The Power of Music: Emotional Connections55:14 Support and Brotherhood in Music56:39 Celebrating the Release of 'Arches' and Its Impact59:07 The Creative Process at Sunset Sound01:05:17 The Legacy of Sunset Sound and Its Influence01:09:50 The Evolution of Illiterate Light's Sound01:15:52 Embracing Creativity and the Journey01:21:22 Preparing for the Road to NewportFor more information on Roadcase:https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email:  info@roadcasepod.comRoadcase theme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer

              In this episode of The Pet Pig Podcast, titled “Piggy Playlists: How Music Influences Pig Behavior,” host Autumn explores the surprising connection between music and pig behavior. Drawing from her own experiences at Autumn Acres Mini Pet Pigs, Autumn shares how classical music helps calm pigs during labor and reduces anxiety in weaning piglets—often leading to relaxed, curious, and even playful behavior.             She dives into scientific research that supports these observations:               -A 2022 study in Nature found that pigs respond emotionally to music. Calming, harmonious music encouraged positive behaviors like playfulness, while dissonant sounds triggered fear and unease.               -A 2024 study revealed that music-based enrichment reduced stress in pigs, lowering cortisol and salivary alpha amylase levels and decreasing aggression.             Autumn offers practical advice for pig owners:                 -Choose harmonious, calming music (classical is a great starting point)                 -Keep the volume low, as pigs have sensitive hearing.                 -Observe and adjust based on your pig's reactions.                 -Use music consistently to create positive associations.              She encourages listeners to experiment with music in their pigs' environments and share their experiences via Instagram. Autumn emphasizes that music isn't just enjoyable for humans—it's a powerful tool to enhance pig welfare and emotional health.             A thoughtful piggy playlist can improve your pig's mood, reduce stress, and create a more peaceful environment—proving that music truly speaks to all species.

Message Us!The people we surround ourselves with shape who we become. Pastor Ben takes us through Acts 13:4-12, exploring the powerful confrontation between Paul and Bar-Jesus, a false prophet who opposed the gospel message despite his impressive-sounding credentials.Drawing from the timeless wisdom that "show me your friends and I'll show you your future," this message examines how the influences in our lives—whether people, media, or entertainment—can either draw us closer to Christ or pull us away. Through personal stories and biblical insights, Pastor Ben challenges us to evaluate whether what we allow into our lives is moving us toward spiritual growth or hindering our journey.The contrast between Bar-Jesus (whose name ironically means "son of salvation") and the missionary team of Paul and Barnabas reveals how deceptive appearances can be. While one group spread authentic faith, the other actively opposed it despite religious credentials. This tension culminates in a dramatic spiritual confrontation that ultimately leads to the conversion of Sergius Paulus, the local authority.Perhaps most encouraging is the redemptive story of John Mark, who abandoned the missionary journey but later became the author of the Gospel of Mark. Through Barnabas's mentorship and second chances, we see how positive godly influences can restore those who have stumbled in their faith.This message offers four practical applications: eliminate negative influences, be a positive influence to those who need it, aspire to faithful service like Paul and Barnabas, and support missionaries spreading the gospel worldwide. Whether you're struggling with unhealthy relationships, questioning your media consumption, or seeking to deepen your faith commitment, this teaching provides biblical wisdom for navigating the influences that shape your spiritual journey.Are you surrounding yourself with people and influences that make you more like Christ? Join us as we explore how to build a life centered on godly influences and become life-giving influences for others.Support the show

Ep. 331: Eva Victor, writer-director of Sorry, Baby, on the film's influences and her recent viewing Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. I've been eager for people to see Eva Victor's Sorry, Baby ever since I saw it at Sundance (where it picked up a prize). A wonder of a film, it's the funny and moving story of a woman working through trauma, with Victor playing the leading role, opposite Naomi Ackie (Mickey 17) and Lucas Hedges (Manchester by the Sea). The writer-director brings her tonal and emotional precision both as a performer and as a writer to a debut feature that blazes its own path (distinct from the comedic shorts that were my first introduction to her work). I was delighted to speak with Victor about influences on the film (ranging from Certain Women to The Handmaiden and beyond), as well as her recent viewing. Sorry, Baby is in theaters now, distributed by A24. Please support the production of this podcast by signing up at: rapold.substack.com Photo by Steve Snodgrass

Pastor Ja Mell Augustin kicked off our new series, "Under the Influences," by drawing a powerful parallel between maintaining a clean pond and guarding our spiritual hearts, based on Proverbs 4:23. Using personal experiences and biblical wisdom, she explains how we can become better spiritual gatekeepers, protecting our hearts from harmful influences while making room for God's transformative presence. This relevant message reminds us that we're designed to flow with God's purpose, but we must intentionally maintain the condition of our hearts through searching, cleaning, and guarding - all while keeping Jesus at the center.

In today's episode I spoke with recurring guest, "gut microbiome whisperer" Dr. Christine Bishara. Dr. Bishara (www.fromwithinmedical.com) explores how the gut influences brain development and how it influences adulthood.  Christine Bishara, MD is the founder of From Within Medical, a medical wellness practice that places emphasis on the mind-body and gut-brain axis to prevent and manage disease. With over 20 years of clinical experience, time and time again, Dr Bishara has discovered that the connection between these systems plays a significant role in disease prevention and management, but it has not been adequately addressed. Consequently, her therapy involves a multidimensional and personalized approach that addresses multiple physical and biological factors, while focusing on strengthening the body's immune system. This includes assessment of individual gut health, determination of antioxidant levels, and determination of neurotransmitter deficiencies.

The central theme of this podcast episode revolves around the profound influence of familial inspiration on one's artistic journey, as exemplified by the speaker's desire to emulate her mother. The speaker reflects on her early experiences in kindergarten, where a nascent interest in performance ignited a lifelong passion. She recounts her formative years, characterized by a yearning to mirror her mother's artistic endeavors, which ultimately shaped her aspirations. Throughout the discourse, we explore the complexities of self-expression, the challenges of peer perception, and the significant role of encouragement from loved ones in fostering creativity. This conversation encapsulates the intricate interplay between personal history and artistic development, illustrating how one individual's journey can resonate universally.Takeaways: The initial inspiration for pursuing a career in the arts stemmed from a profound admiration for one's mother, who served as a role model throughout formative years. Experiences in school often involved being both celebrated for musical talents and subsequently criticized, which led to complex social dynamics with peers. The journey into music composition began unexpectedly, highlighting that creativity can emerge from the most mundane activities, such as cleaning the house. Art school provided a unique environment filled with like-minded individuals, fostering a sense of community and collaboration among aspiring artists and performers. Learning the importance of understanding personal strengths and weaknesses was emphasized during education, shaping future collaborations and artistic endeavors. Despite a passion for music, formal instruction did not encompass songwriting, prompting a self-directed exploration of musical creation later in life.

Tonight on Veritas... our special guests are Jeffrey Stegman and Clayten Stedmann. Most of us move through life believing we're in command of our thoughts—our decisions, our reactions, even our moods. But beneath the surface, there are forces at work. Quiet forces. Old patterns. Inherited beliefs. Residual energy from childhood... or something even older. Fields of consciousness that stretch beyond the walls of the mind and seep into our daily lives. You walk into a space and feel something shift. Maybe it's subtle. A heaviness. A sudden rush of emotion. The body reacts before the mind can rationalize. That sensation, that instinct... is trying to tell you something. What if some of what you think and feel doesn't even belong to you? What if that inner voice echoing in your head isn't entirely your own? Jeffrey and Clayten have spent years studying the nature of thought, the impact of environment, and the unseen architecture of consciousness. Their work explores how these invisible influences shape who we are—and how awareness becomes the key to transformation. We'll explore how to recognize when something isn't yours. How to reclaim attention. How to distinguish between what you've chosen... and what you've absorbed. This conversation isn't linear. It's layered—like the human experience itself. And it begins with a single, piercing question: Are you truly sovereign?
