Toronto just did something that should scare the league: they're winning big without a single “ball-stopper,” and the vibes aren't a gimmick — they're the engine. On this episode of On The Ball, Ric Bucher breaks down why the Raptors' pregame “house party” bench routine and locker-room freedom aren't cute… they're culture, and culture becomes chemistry, and chemistry becomes wins.Ric contrasts that with Golden State's current reality: an oddly quiet locker room, outsized expectations, and the uncomfortable question nobody wants to ask out loud — what exactly are the Warriors supposed to be right now? If you've been wondering why some teams look like they enjoy basketball and others look like they're surviving it, this is the roadmap.Timestamps:00:00 “Cooking with gas” + show intro00:40 Ric's third book tease: The Value of Being Coachable01:45 Why this episode became “All Raptors” (and why that matters)02:17 The Raptors' bench mob: conga line energy, welcome-in vibes03:24 Locker-room leaders you wouldn't expect: Jamal Shead + Gradey Dick04:03 Why hierarchies can help… or suffocate a team05:12 Off-court chemistry → on-court chemistry (especially for young teams)06:31 Warriors locker-room contrast: quiet, pressure, veteran routines08:02 The Warriors' expectation problem: “one move away” thinking09:13 The Buddy Hield reality check (and what fans project onto role players)10:26 What the roster actually is: youth, second-rounders, undrafted grinders11:18 Raptors parallels to early Mark Jackson Warriors (joy + hunger)13:32 Raptors “secret sauce”: unselfishness + relentless help-and-recover defense14:34 Ric interviews Darko Rajaković: character, consistency, no favorites17:13 The “no hesitation” rule — why Toronto's ball movement is different19:54 The possession that explains everything (Ingram → Jamal Shead → Walter)22:21 Context: OKC injuries, January realities, why panic takes are lazy24:08 Ric's bigger point on greatness — and why highlight culture lies24:41 Ingram's evolution: proving he can win, not just score26:18 Scottie Barnes as “team janitor” (dirty work that closes games)28:23 Can this translate to playoffs?

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Kylee Ingram to unpack how better decision design can reduce stress, improve clarity, and rebuild self-trust at work. They explore decision intelligence, crowd wisdom, and why “the usual people in the room” often leads to predictable mistakes. This conversation is for leaders, founders, and team members who feel stuck in chaotic meetings, unclear accountability, or constant second-guessing. You will learn how to structure decision rooms so the right voices are included, bias is reduced, and decisions improve without adding more time or drama. About the Guest: Kylee Ingram is the co-founder and CEO of Wizer, a decision intelligence platform focused on mapping cognitive strengths and helping teams bring the right people into important decisions. Her background includes television production and a crowdsourced documentary experiment called CrowdTV. Key Takeaways: Aim for 6+ decision participants to unlock “wise crowd” effects, but only if diversity and independence are built in Watch for three bias types in meetings: social (who is heard), information (what is valued), capacity(oversimplifying under pressure) A weak decision room looks like the same voices repeating, blind spots growing, and outcomes feeling narrow Build the room using three lenses: outward diversity (age, gender, ethnicity), experience, and cognitive roles(data, risk, options, process, outcomes) Better decision design can reduce errors and improve innovation when the right mix is present Start by understanding your own decision style, then add a complementary thinker to balance your blind spots How to Connect With the Guest: https://www.wizer.business/decision-profiles  If you're curious about how you make decisions, Kylee invites listeners to complete a free Decision Profile. It takes about five minutes and gives you insight into your decision style, strengths, and blind spots — and how you tend to show up in group decisions.   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers' loss to the Islanders, the end of Connor McDavid's point streak, Edmonton's goaltending dilemma, line combos, and more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the Oilers' goaltending situation and tried to figure out how the team will solve it. Given that carrying three goaltenders is less than ideal, the organization will eventually have to make a decision. Given how well Ingram has played since being recalled, it seems completely unlikely that Connor Ingram will be the one to go, but it's clear that the organization still respects what Calvin Pickard has done in his time here. Shifting gears, the guys looked at last night's loss to the New York Islanders, and Ilya Sorokin absolutely robbed them of two points by standing on his head. Given how well New York's goalie played, it's almost impossible to be too upset about the result, but that didn't stop the boys from being slightly annoyed anyway. They also discussed Andrew Mangiapane being a healthy scratch again and looked at what it will take to get him either in the mix or out of the market. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of Ask the Idiots, betting talk for our friends at bet365, and Hot and Cold Performers to look back on the week that was. With the 2025-26 season now past the halfway mark, the guys spent the bulk of the podcast moving through a range of topics, some related to the Oilers and others not, but that's the way things go on the Friday episode of ONR.

In this special Language of Love Conversation, I sit down with Libby Ingram, a speech therapist, grieving mother, and a central voice from the groundbreaking podcast The Telepathy Tapes. Libby shares the extraordinary story of her son, John Paul, a non-speaking autistic man with a genius level intellect, a deep telepathic connection to his peers, and a mission that continued even after his physical passing. Together, we step into the world of spellers, non speaking individuals who use letter boards to communicate. Libby helps us see a reality where these souls are not disabled, but differently abled, operating from a place of deep spiritual awareness. She describes how John Paul and his friends met daily on “The Hill,” a metaphysical gathering place where they shared knowledge and prepared for a purpose the world had not yet caught up to. Libby also talks about the ways communication never stopped, through numbers, songs, red roses of protection, and even a life saving pause at a traffic light. Her story reminds us that grief and joy are not opposites. They walk side by side, with our loved ones still very much present, cheering us toward life. We explore: What The Telepathy Tapes reveal when told through a mother's lived experience How spelling unlocks intelligence hidden behind motor and sensory challenges Why non-speaking autistic children are deeply aware, connected, and conscious The metaphysical meeting place known as “The Hill” and how children connect there What telepathy looks like when it's lived, not theorized How connection continues after death through signs, numbers, and symbols Why certain messages from loved ones arrive again and again How signs before a passing only make sense once you look back What it means to hold grief and joy at the same time without betraying love Why death doesn't end love, it changes how love speaks Remember to explore the full depth of this story by listening to The Telepathy Tapes podcast, and connect with Libby on Instagram or through her community for resources on spelling and communication methods.

Is independent teaching actually a stable career for music teachers? In this episode, Andrea talks with Danielle Ingram, a former school music teacher who left a classroom job to build a sustainable, home-based private music studio. Danielle shares how she redefined stability, ran the numbers before quitting her W-2 job, and built demand before making the transition to full-time independent teaching. They discuss practical questions many teachers face, including replacing a school salary with private teaching, marketing strategies that worked (and didn't), designing a home studio, and why flexibility and schedule control became just as important as income. If you're a music teacher considering self-employment or questioning whether private teaching can truly be stable, this episode offers a clear, honest look at what a thoughtful transition can look like.   A full transcript and resources from this episode can be found at MusicStudioStartup.com/episode177.   MSS Entrepreneurs Hub + Mastermind MSS Studio Launch Grant Competition Music Studio Business Building 101 Business Finance for Music Teachers  

Let's do this! The Cult of Hockey podcast. By the Faithful and for the Faithful. Today Kurt Leavins and David Staples of the Edmonton Journal digs into the Edmonton Oilers 4-1 win over the Blackhawks of Chicago.

It's Tuesday afternoon, and there's a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio set, which means the boys were back in the studio to recap the week that was. On today's episode, the guys discussed Connor McDavid's heater, Tristan Jarry and Jake Walman's return, Quinn Hutson's new contract, and much more.We kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about why the Oilers can't seem to win three games in a row, despite having eight chances to do so. While it's not a big deal because the team is winning more games than it loses, it is bizarre that the Oilers can't seem to string wins together. For an additional delicious debate, we looked at Edmonton's goaltending situation and took a few swings at when the three-headed monster situation will be resolved.Changing gears, we looked at last night's 4-1 win over Chicago and gave Connor Ingram the flowers he deserves for a fantastic performance between the pipes. Despite the scoreline ending as a three-goal Oilers win, the result would have been much different without Ingram's brilliance. We also discussed Connor McDavid's 19-game point streak and how this run has been so dominant that every other team is dying to find out how to stop him.Finally, we wrapped up the episode of ONR with another round of Baggedmilk's Trivia. With Dan on vacation and none of the other boys coming up with anything, the guys went back to old faithful with a round of Predators-related questions. Did the quizmaster have to step in and get involved? Did Baggedmilk get his questions right? You'll have to listen to find out for sure. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

MACOM Technologies (MTSI) hit a record high as investors pay closer attention to the company's ties to the Department of Defense amid a push for higher U.S. defense spending. Not only that, but George Tsilis notes MACOM's thematic ties to the AI trade adding to a bull case. As he explains, Monday's rally could be tied to MACOM nabbing a big name from Broadcom (AVGO) to its board of directors. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

When I first conceived of my theory of everything named “A Simple Explanation of Absolutely Everything” back in 2008, I was unfamiliar with Gnosticism. A Simple Explanation of Absolutely Everything is presented in secular terms, using common concepts from all fields of human endeavor from math and science on through religion, psychology, and sociology. In A Simple Explanation of Absolutely Everything, God is usually referred to as Metaversal Consciousness, and we here on this plane carry that consciousness forward into this life as Units of Consciousness. A Simple Explanation of Absolutely Everything was written to appeal to folks who usually don't go in for religion but who, nonetheless, are seeking an overall structure for understanding the mysteries of life. I updated A Simple Explanation of Absolutely Everything in 2020 to make it smaller and converted the color images to black and white to make it less expensive to purchase. The 2020 edition is also available in kindle and audible. Had I been a philosophy major like my brother, Dr. Bill Puett, I would have known the names for various aspects of the Simple Explanation of Absolutely Everything, like panpsychism and monadism. I would have been familiar with works such as Huxley's Perennial Philosophy. But I wasn't a philosophy major. I am instead a psychologist with a Ph.D. in Classical Rhetoric. My field of deep study is ancient texts and ideologies, and these are what influenced the development of my theory, not modern philosophers such as Leibniz or Kant. So rather than kludge together other people's ideas, which is the normal way that scholars work, I built the Simple Explanation of Absolutely Everything from the ground up using my own observation and logic. And then around 2016, I read a copy of the Nag Hammadi Scriptures. At first I found the ideas shocking. These were the very heresies my conservative Christianity had warned me away from. According to Christians, these beliefs were excluded from our modern versions of the Bible to protect the church from theological misinformation. I discovered that radical repackaging had removed from the New Testament a type of spiritual belief that was well- known to Jesus and his followers. This belief system, commonly called Gnosticism, describes Christianity differently than does our modern Church. Gnosticism makes sense of most of the more mysterious aspects of Christianity, including humanity's role in the great scheme of things, and common questions such as “why is there evil in the world?” Many of these answers to longstanding theological problems were resurrected along with the Nag Hammadi scriptures when they were rediscovered and exhumed from the desert sands in 1945. I learned that the Nag Hammadi scriptures had been buried deep in the Egyptian desert around 350 AD, preserving them from the great Biblical purge conducted by the Council of Nicene at the behest of the Catholic Pope and the Emperor of Rome as they shaped and packaged Christianity to suit their needs. Keep in mind that these ancient teachings have been held back from almost 2000 years of formal study and Christian theology. So what you are about to learn from the Nag Hammadi scriptures is fresh, clean, and unsullied by centuries of scholastic and theological opinions. Over the next couple of years I carefully picked up the Nag Hammadi and I set it back down numerous times, lest I be led astray by false beliefs. Eventually I narrowed my focus to one of the codices in particular that seemed to accord most closely with my understanding of the teachings of Jesus. This book is called The Tripartite Tractate, which simply means the 3-part book. The “3” also refers to the 3-part nature of humanity: spiritual, psychological, and material. I spent time conducting a word study on the Tripartite Tractate, attempting to nail down some very confusing, archaic language. I also made diagrams and illustrations of the ideas presented in the book as I read. Then I put the material away for another year to let it rest and percolate. Finally, in 2019, I wrote and published a small book called The Gnostic Gospel Illuminated, based upon the Tripartite Tractate. The purpose of The Gnostic Gospel Illuminated is to present the gnosis of the Tripartite Tractate as simply and clearly as possible. The format of the Gnostic Gospel book is similar to the Chick cartoon tracts I used to hand out during my Jesus-freak days in the late 1960s. Each concept in the Gnostic Gospel is illustrated by my own original artwork that converts difficult ideas from the Tripartite Tractate into easy-to-understand drawings. With my simple Gnostic Gospel, anyone, of any level of education, can grasp Gnostic theology. Since that time, I have continued to develop the Gnostic theology as presented in the Tripartite Tractate through my Gnostic Insights podcast. I have also had the pleasure of presenting this Gnostic theology as a guest on numerous podcasts hosted by others. The book, A Simple Explanation of the Gnostic Gospel, represents the current state of my personal gnosis within the context of a fully developed Gnostic theology. Although The Gnostic Gospel Illuminated presents everything one needs to know to remember the gnosis they were born with, A Simple Explanation of the Gnostic Gospel goes beyond The Gnostic Gospel Illuminated to explain, as simply as humanly possible, the why's and wherefores of gnosis. Before we go any further let's answer the question: what is gnosis? We keep talking about gnosis and Gnosticism, but what does this mean? Gnosis simply means knowing. And in the gnostic frame of reference, gnosis refers to remembering the truth of our existence and our origin. Gnostic literature says we come into life holding all of this knowledge within ourselves and we have complete access to the Father, the Son, and the Fullness at any time that we turn our focus upward. It is this direct conduit to the Father that brings us into alignment with our gnosis. Gnosis is a Greek word. Another word related to gnosis is anamnesis. You know that the word amnesia means forgetting. Anamnesis means not forgetting. So the process of coming to gnosis is a process called anamnesis—or remembering. Just to let you know, this book sometimes throws around big words like anamnesis. Not to worry though, because the goal here is to explain these words clearly enough so you will be able to understand them without running to the dictionary. Many people claim that it is impossible to know or describe the full glory of the transcendent, immortal Father due to our own human limitations. After all, how could limited beings such as ourselves possibly imagine the greatness of the originator of the universe, much less our place in the grand design? Wouldn't lesser beings reflect a diminished view of God? Wouldn't these lesser beings be limited to offering a tarnished glory that falls far short of the object of their praise? The Tripartite Tractate, the book of the Nag Hamadi that I use as my primary source material, puts it this way: “If the members of the ALL had risen to give glory according to the individual powers of each, they would have brought forth a glory that was only a semblance of the Father, who himself is the ALL. Thus creation would have been doomed from the outset to never comprehend the full glory of either the Father or itself.” According to the Gnostic Gospel, the Father realized the impossibility of his creation comprehending himself and so the Father built a helpful workaround meant to aid comprehension through selfless union and cooperation with others in a shared task. “For that reason, they were drawn into mutual intermingling, union, and oneness through the singing of praise from their assembled fullness. They were one and, at the same time, many, accurately reflecting the One who himself is the entirety of the ALL out of perfect union with itself and with the Son, and by means of a single shared effort, the ALL gave glory to the eternal one who had brought it forth.” We will learn all about the Father, the Son, and the ALL in the order that Creation itself came from the Father. I like to begin with the cosmos as it unfolded and rolled out. The word for that sort of study is “cosmogony,” which is the study of the origins of the universe. This makes the most sense to me–to start at the very beginning and then to go through the entire process of how everything came to be and who the principle players are and then, after that is established, to see how that applies to our lives. Then we can ask, “Why are we here? Is there a purpose to our lives? How should we live?” After that, we can finally consider the final roll-up of the universe and what happens after we die. All of these questions are answered very precisely in the Tripartite Tractate of the Nag Hammadi. This knowledge is “gnosis.” Valentinian Gnosticism is a form of Christianity, and I maintain that it is the true form of Christianity that Christianity should be. It is my understanding that this wisdom would have been what Jesus was actually talking about, and that's why the New Testament is consistent with what I have been teaching. When Jesus said, “I and my Father are One,” he was talking about the gnostic God Above All Gods. So you are not wandering into deep heresy by exploring Valentinian Gnosticism. However, if you are a Christian, you should know that there are indeed a couple of major heresies in Gnosticism. One major heresy, and this is a big heresy, is that that the Creator God of this universe that we've been calling Jehovah or Yaweh is not the God Above All Gods. Yes, Jehovah is the creator of the heavens and earth. But his creation only extends to the mineral level. Basically, Jehovah is in charge of all the material in the universe. Jehovah makes our material universe hold its shape and appear solid. So, yes, Jehovah as the Creator God of our material universe is in line with Christianity. But Gnosticism then goes on to say that the creator of this universe is not the Father, but a fallen entity. The Creator God is an Aeon who fell from the Fullness of God. In the Tripartite Tractate the Aeon who fell is named Logos. Another big heresy in gnostic Christianity is the notion that everyone will be redeemed. As our Christian New Testament repeatedly says, redemption is not based upon merit or works. It is not based upon rituals such as baptism and communion . Redemption is based upon the fact that Christ came to Earth and it was the Christ's job to redeem us all, not ours. So it doesn't matter what you think about Christ. It doesn't matter whether you believe in redemption or not, because your beliefs and actions do not limit the ability of Christ to accomplish his mission. I don't see universal redemption as the negative heresy it is made out to be. I actually find it empowers the role of Christ more than our modern church doctrine. It makes Jesus even more important because everyone is redeemed. Everyone who ever was, everyone who lives now, and everyone who will ever be is covered by the redemption of Christ, because it is Christ's job to do that and the Christ accomplished his job. This fact is actually stated throughout the New Testament, although generally misinterpreted. It doesn't matter whether you hold out as an atheist. The thing is, when you do hold out, when you refuse to acknowledge the mission of the Christ, then it's a pretty good indication that you are not in tune with the Father, because the Christ is the emissary of the Father. So if you reject the redemption of the Christ, you are rejecting the Father. If you love the Father, then you will love the Son. And if you love the Son, you will love the Christ. Sounds pretty Christian to me. Valentinian Gnosticism is most assuredly not a New Age religion. The books of the Nag Hammadi were written on sheepskin parchment and buried in a clay jar in the desert for 2000 years, so I don't see how you could call it “New Age.” If Valentinian Gnosticism has tenets in common with other popular belief systems, then those would be truths that they all happen to share. That is, the gnosis they may have in common doesn't imply they are historically related to each other. For example, my book–The Gnostic Gospel Illuminated—comes from the Tripartite Tractate of the Nag Hammadi. My retelling of the mythos is just good news for modern man. It is not hermetic; it is not a translation of wisdom from an Egyptian God. It is not New Age. This Gnostic Gospel is simply the story of who we are and where we come from. This is the information A Simple Explanation of the Gnostic Gospel will explain as thoroughly and as simply as possible. The gnosis I am sharing in this book honors God the Father and, as you begin to remember this inherent truth, you will experience a more joyful life. When we use our free will to remember our true inheritance, the God of this universe loses its power to control us. When we turn our eyes upward to the Father, we are freed from the burdens of this world. Once you begin to remember that you are truly loved by our heavenly Father, you will suffer less. When you begin to walk with virtue rather than embracing vice, you will be happier; you will be joyful. Not all of the time. Bad things do happen. But suffering as a response to life's challenges is unnecessary. We are living in a fallen world, and that, I suppose, is another gnostic heresy. For some reason, modern Christians want to insist that this world is blessed by God and is blessedly perfect. But we all know this world we live in isn't perfect, and when you deny that fact you become unduly frustrated and sad , even to the point of depression. Pharmaceuticals are not the solution; gnosis is. One last thing before we leave this introduction. A Simple Explanation of the Gnostic Gospel is not a scholarly, theological tome. Gnosis means knowing. This sort of knowing is not related to book learning. Gnosis refers to remembering what you already know–anamnesis. The point of spiritual study is not to learn new things but to mine what you already possess deep inside of you. When you study new ideas, you must continually weigh the information you are taking in against your own discernment. The purpose of this book is not so much to teach you about Gnosticism; the purpose of this book is to stimulate your own innate gnosis. And there is really only one gnosis that matters in the end, and that is remembering your cosmic origin and the purpose of being alive. Are you familiar with that expression that says, “You can't take it with you”? You can't take it with you usually means that your possessions and your money are worthless to you after you die. People say, “You may as well spend what you have now rather than hoard it, because you can't take it with you,” or, “You should be more generous with your possessions and share them with others, because you can't take it with you.” But aside from money and possessions, another thing you can't take with you is worldly knowledge and book learning. The memes that you pick up here in our material cosmos will not follow you into the afterlife. The only memes that will persist beyond this place and time are those that are compatible with the values of the Pleroma, often referred to as virtues. So you can be a billionaire here in this life, you could be a tech giant and shoot off your own rockets to Mars, you could be President of the United States or the head of a crime syndicate, but you won't have a dime in Heaven. Likewise, you can have three Ivy League degrees but learn nothing of lasting value. Your advanced degrees in religious studies or in physics or archeology are ultimately worthless. The only knowledge of lasting value is the gnosis that transcends this material cosmos. This is the type of knowledge we address in this book: gnosis of the Father and the Son, gnosis of the Pleroma and the Aeons, gnosis of the fall and how to avoid partaking in the fall, gnosis of redemption from the fall, gnosis of the mission of the Christ, and gnosis of the Simple Golden Rule of love and cooperation. More than book learning, what we really need to learn is discernment. Our culture does not promote either critical thinking or discernment. Our culture actually promotes going along to get along. Our culture teaches us to feed our narcissistic egos and denies that we exist beyond our egos. Science officially denies the existence of souls because souls cannot be dissected, weighed, or measured, and science only believes in tangible evidence they can squeeze out of their experiments. You can't tease out a soul in an atom smasher. But here's what I'd like to tell you today: that the academy of scholars don't know much of anything of lasting value. This is because academia only studies “isms” and not gnosis. Academic publications are, for the most part, empty of any sort of gnosis or spiritual discernment. University scholasticism, another ism, scours the writings of other scholars and builds upon officially pre-approved conclusions. This is why the footnotes and the reference sections are so important, because they disclose the limits of the scholar's inquiry. These scholars are not mining the actual source of knowledge. Rather, they are continually adding and stripping wallpaper from the walls of academia and painting over other people's decor in the name of intellectual progress. But it's not progress; it's only an accumulation of essentially useless information. We have no need of knowledge for the sake of knowledge. Knowledge should be used to inform your own gnosis. Knowledge should be weighed by the scales of your own discernment. The purpose of reading, writing, and arithmetic is to aid your own recall of gnosis. The purpose of scholarship, if you want to be a gnostic scholar, is to enhance your practice of gnosis. It is far better to be a gnostic practitioner with little formal education than to be a scholar with little or no gnosis. So go ahead and study, but realize that the study has no value unless it helps you to realize truth, and the only truth you need is Aeonic truth. The vast majority of memes do not lead us to truth. Most memes are forms of delusion, whether you pick them up from worldly culture or soulless universities. Most memes stand between you and your realization of self. In academia, consciousness is largely denied. Some academics go so far as to claim that apparent consciousness is nothing but random nodes in a mathematical abstraction, and that what we think of as ourselves is only packets of information that arise from calculations. Those researchers who are into consciousness studies believe themselves to be at the forefront of uncovering the nature of consciousness through scientific procedure. They are attempting to discover the true nature of consciousness through reductionism and measurements. The consciousness studies articles I have read attempt to reduce consciousness rather than expand it. They believe consciousness can be grasped by going tinier and tinier. That's called scientific reductionism. It reduces the big to the tiny. A Simple Explanation of the Gnostic Gospel is the opposite of reductionism. We keep going larger and larger, all the way up to the gigantic, to the immeasurable, to the level of the Aeons, the Pleroma, the Son, the Christ, and the Father. That's the opposite direction of reductionism. It's going large. So hang onto your hats and let's get ready to mine some very big gnosis. You may purchase my original book, The Gnostic Gospel Illuminated at gnosticinsights.com. It is also available as a pocket edition from lulu.com for only $7. You may purchase A Simple Explanation of the Gnostic Gospel at amazon or even your local independent book store; just ask them to order it for you. It is listed in the Ingram catalog.

Bob Ingram joined the Navy after graduating high school in 1963 to give himself some direction. He was initially assigned to work in electronics, but after getting a bad case of pneumonia, Ingram was so impressed by the dedication of the Navy corpsmen, that he decided to become one. Corpsman training was long and demanding and Marine Corps aid training followed that. After struggling to find a good Marine unit to join, Ingram was off to Vietnam in late 1965 - attached to C Company, 1st Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division. They saw a lot of action right from the start.In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Ingram takes us into corpsman training, being assigned to the wrong company, and the joy of being moved to a great one. He then details his actions in February 1966, as he rendered aid to his Marines and also manned a machine gun to expose the enemy position. Ingram would receive the Silver Star.Just a few weeks later, on March 28, 1966, C Company found itself in another vicious fight, and lost a platoon almost instantly. Ingram provided aid to wounded Marines, gathered weapons and ammo from those who were killed and brought it to those still in the fight, and, again, grabbed a gun to target and drive out the enemy. He did all of this despite being shot several times, including once in the head.Ingram will tell us about his long road to recovery, how he learned of the effort to award him the Medal of Honor, and what the medal means to him and the men he served alongside.

It's Tuesday afternoon, and there's a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio set, which means the boys were back in the studio to recap the week that was. On today's episode, the guys discussed the Oilers' Tuesday's matchup vs. the Flames, Connor Ingram's first win of the season, Baggedmilk's Trivia, and much more.We kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about what has been the most surprising storyline of the NHL season so far. Whether it's the lack of success in Edmonton for Andrew Mangiapane or Trent Frederic for the Oilers, the Leafs struggling as mightily as they are, or how a team like the Ducks are fighting well above their weight class, there are plenty of stories to choose from. Changing gears, we looked at the latest injury updates from the Oilers. Given that Edmonton hasn't had a single game with a full, healthy lineup, the boys discussed the latest round of updates and whether the team will ever be able to ice a full roster. The guys also spent a few minutes talking about Trent Frederic being healthy scratched, and also what he needs to do to get back in the team's good graces. Finally, we wrapped up the episode of ONR with another round of Baggedmilk's Trivia, including some Oilers vs. Flames-specific questions ahead of Tuesday's Battle of Alberta. If you've heard any of the previous editions of BM's trivia, you'll know that Baggedmilk has been way off on some of the questions, which keeps Liam in the role of trivia marshal and auditor.

It's Tuesday afternoon, and there's a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio set, which means the boys were back in the studio to recap the week that was. On today's episode, the guys discussed the Oilers' Tuesday's matchup vs. the Penguins, Tristan Jarry vs. Stuart Skinner, Baggedmilk's Trivia, and much more.We kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about whether everyone is making too big a deal about the Oilers taking on the Penguins for the first time after the Skinner/Jarry trade. Given the magnitude of Friday's trade and the fact that the two teams are playing so quickly, it's easy to understand why the media and fans are so interested, even if we're only talking about a regular season game in mid-December. Changing gears, we looked at Tristan Jarry's Oilers debut against the Maple Leafs and how he was more than adequate despite arriving with the team just over 24 hours earlier. We also walked through some of Stuart Skinner's quotes from this morning after practice, and how it definitely seems like a trade was needed for both sides. Not to be left out, the fellas also spent a few minutes giving Brett Kulak his flowers after being a fantastic Oiler for the four years he was here. Regardless of the situation, Brett Kulak was a wonderful player for the organization and everyone on the podcast was sad to see him go. Finally, we wrapped up the episode of ONR with another round of Baggedmilk's Trivia, including some Oilers vs. Penguins-specific questions ahead of Tuesday's game. If you listened to previous editions of BM's trivia, you'll know that Baggedmilk has been way off on some of the questions, which keeps Liam in the role of trivia marshal and auditor.

This episode includes sensitive content and may be difficult for some listeners. Listener discretion is advised. On July 4th, a devastating flood swept through Kerrville, Texas, forever altering countless lives. Among those impacted was John Dustin Ledford, whose world was turned upside down as he began a desperate search for his sister, brother-in-law, and young nephew in the chaotic aftermath of the storm. In this heartbreaking and deeply human episode of the Team Never Quit Podcast, Marcus and Melanie meet with Dustin, who courageously shares the raw details of those terrifying hours and days — the uncertainty, the fear, and the relentless determination to find his family amid overwhelming destruction. His story offers a firsthand look at what it's like when celebration turns to catastrophe in an instant, and how faith, grit, and community become lifelines when hope feels fragile. This conversation is not just about loss and tragedy — it's about love, perseverance, and the unbreakable bonds of family.

Radical Obedience explores what it truly means to follow God in every area of life—personally, publicly, and directionally. Pastor Clay teaches that obedience is not pressure but spiritual nourishment, the very thing that sustained Jesus. The message calls us out of Western-driven striving and into a life formed by daily encounters, humility, repentance, and saying yes to God in the small things. When we obey in order, God brings clarity, opens the right doors, redirects the wrong ones, and leads us into a harvest we didn't plant.

They give their input on what the Eagles are dealing with and how they can improve. Griffin III says that Jalen Hurts' greatness needs to be appreciated and that he should be getting more respect.

Former Heisman Trophy winners Robert Griffin III and Mark Ingram join the 94 WIP Midday Show to discuss the Eagles, the NFL, and College Football. Griffin III says that there needs to be an appreciation for Jalen Hurts' greatness and that he deserves more respect. He also says that anyone questioning the QB and distracting the team needs to get out of the building. Ingram entertains the idea of trading Jalen Hurts for Joe Burrow. He also says that the onus is on the Eagles players to start executing the offense and performing better. He also notices that there are trust and camaraderie issues within the team.

Today's 94 WIP Midday Show previewed the Eagles-Raiders matchup this Sunday. It raised the question of whether or not the Eagles struggling offense will finally break out. Former NFL GM Mike Mayock joined the show to discuss what is going on with Jalen Hurts and the Eagles offense. He says that he has always been a fan of Hurts both as a player and a person. Former Heisman Trophy winners Robert Griffin III and Mark Ingram also joined the program and had their takes on the situation.

This episode features serial entrepreneur and facilitator Dave Ingram, who shares the pivotal moments that shaped his leadership—from his early landscaping business to building a 25-year executive search firm. Dave talks openly about the hard seasons, including the 2008 downturn, and how peer forums became his anchor for real talk and better decision-making.We explore what makes forums work: experience sharing instead of advice, confidentiality that creates safety, and the discipline to be fully present. Dave also describes how these habits show up outside the boardroom, like helping runners of all backgrounds access coaches, shoes, support, and a welcoming community—leading to miles logged, new finish lines, and social barriers coming down.Dave breaks down the craft of facilitation, why sharp questions outperform quick answers, and how frameworks like EOS stick when teams feel truly heard. He also shares how he uses AI as a thought partner without relying on it to replace human connection. If you care about leadership growth, peer learning, and building healthier organizations, this conversation gives you real tools and real hope.Please visit www.internationalfacilitatorsorganization.com to learn more about Mo Fathelbab and International Facilitators Organization (IFO), a leading provider of facilitators and related group facilitation services, providing training, certification, marketing services, education, and community for peer group facilitators at all stages of their career.

Podcast 312 – How Dunwoody High Counselors Support Every Student – Luke Ingram and Denise Spain Dunwoody High might be a big school, but it doesn't feel that way once you meet the counselors. With my son Micah heading there next year from Cornerstone Christian Academy, I wanted to learn what makes the transition smoother—for him and for other families coming from private schools. So I sat down with counselors Luke Ingram and Denise Spain. They walked me through how five full-time counselors guide students all four years, helping with everything from AP schedules and college apps to mental health and slip-on shoes. Dunwoody High reflects the real diversity of our city, and this team makes sure every student feels seen and supported. Whether you're new to the public school system or just want to understand how things work these days, this episode is a great place to start.

Most of us think of generosity as a sacrifice—something that costs us. But what if giving is actually one of the wisest, most joy-producing ways to live? When we open our hands, God not only blesses others through us—He transforms us in the process.That idea lies at the heart of Chip Ingram's book The Genius of Generosity, and it's why we were grateful to welcome him to the program. Chip is the founder, teaching pastor, and CEO of Living on the Edge, a discipleship ministry helping believers live like Christians every day.A Story That Changes EverythingChip's understanding of generosity was forever shaped by a man named John—a seventy-year-old accountant who invited Chip, then a young pastor, to lunch one day. After the meal, John handed him a small white box. Inside was a checkbook labeled Pastor's Discretionary Fund.John said, “Chip, here's what I'd like you to do. Carry this checkbook with you every day. Anytime you see a need that Jesus wants to meet—or that you think I'd want to help with—write a check.”Chip was stunned. He barely knew how to manage his own finances, let alone someone else's. But John invited him back three times each year to review every check. And so Chip began paying attention to needs around him—fueling a single mom's car, providing groceries for a struggling family, restoring electricity for another.Over time, something unexpected happened:Chip handled John's money more carefully than his own.He found himself eager to spot needs.And a deep friendship formed between two men who had nothing in common except a commitment to generosity.Years later, Chip realized the deeper lesson: What John did for him is what God does for all of us. We manage resources that are not ours. We steward what belongs to the King.That realization became the seed for The Genius of Generosity.Why Generosity Is More Than a VirtueChip told me that generosity didn't just change his financial habits—it changed his life. He began seeing giving as an adventure. He describes generosity as a “gateway to intimacy with God,” a doorway into deeper trust and joy. The more he gave, the more he saw God show up.And interestingly, secular research agrees. Chip noted that even if the Bible didn't exist, studies consistently show:Generous people are happier.They enjoy stronger relationships.They live longer and experience greater satisfaction.Why? Because generosity is a creative, life-giving act. It aligns us with how God designed the world.Generosity Connects Us—to God and to OthersJesus taught that wherever our treasure goes, our hearts follow. So every act of giving is spiritual formation. It's discipleship.And generosity builds unexpected bonds with others. Chip shared the story of a homeless man he saw regularly at a bagel shop. For months, the man never responded to Chip's greetings. One morning, Chip quietly bought him a coffee and a bagel. Minutes later, the man spoke—opening up about his life, his experiences, even pointing out the rare appearance of Venus in the sky.A simple act of kindness became the doorway to relationship and transformation.These moments, Chip says, are all around us if we have “our antenna up and our eyes off our phone.”Chip also told a story of a moment when God prompted him to give a six-figure gift—an amount he didn't feel he had. The Lord reminded him, “Do you think I can't replenish what you give?” Over the years, Chip has seen God refill what he gives away again and again, sometimes miraculously.That's the adventure of generosity: you can't out-give God.What If You Feel Like You Have Little to Give?Chip's encouragement is simple: “Start small. It's your view of God that needs to change, not your circumstances.”You don't wait until you're wealthy or “more spiritual” to begin giving. You practice generosity today—right where you are—and watch God grow your heart.The Genius of GenerosityIn the end, generosity is not about losing. It's about gaining—freedom from fear, deeper trust in God, richer relationships, and greater joy.When we give, we reflect the heart of the ultimate Giver. We discover that everything we have belongs to God—and that He delights to pour His blessings through open hands.To learn more about Chip Ingram and The Genius of Generosity, visit LivingOnTheEdge.org.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I already have a will, but a company that visited our church said I also need a trust—and they quoted me $3,000 to set everything up. Do I really need a trust? They said that without a trust, my kids could spend months or years in probate and might have to fight over things. That made me nervous—so now I'm wondering if I really do need one.I've heard you explain capital gains when someone buys a home, but how does it work if you build your home and only have a small HELOC? So if my house is worth about $400,000 and I sold it… How would that be calculated?

Louis explains why he quit stand-up for over a year, how stepping away from the stage changed his life, and what ultimately pulled him back into comedy. The conversation dives deep into fear, pain, trauma, comedy philosophy, empathy, war stories, emotional burnout, and why the darkest moments in life can shape the most powerful art. Tom reveals that reading Ingram made him cry, and Louis talks about the deeply disturbing next book he's finishing—including a scene that shocked even him while writing it. They also explore the controversial idea of “punching down” in comedy, the ethics of humor, and why Louis believes the funniest material comes from the messy truth of being human. 2 Bears, 1 Cave Ep. 316 https://tomsegura.com/tour https://www.bertbertbert.com/tour https://store.ymhstudios.com Gambling problem?
