3 Tamouz : déception, injustice, opportunité ratée… plongée dans les Iguerot Kodech du Rabbi !À travers plusieurs lettres saisissantes, le Rabbi nous apprend à porter un regard plus juste sur la vie : la parnassa, la confiance en D.ieu, la gratitude, les épreuves, les opportunités manquées, et la capacité de voir ce que D.ieu nous donne déjà.Un message profond, concret et actuel sur l'attachement au Rabbi et la façon de traverser la vie avec plus de foi, de lucidité et de sérénité.Conférence donnée au Chabad Midtown francophone à Manhattan, à l'occasion de la 32e Hiloula du Rabbi, 3 Tamouz 5786-2026.

War. Injustice. Suffering. Persecution. Headlines filled with loss and fear. And beneath it all, a question rises: Where is God in all of this? Even these forces—terrible as they are—unfold under God's sovereign hand. This does not mean God delights in suffering or is indifferent to pain. Scripture is clear; He sees every tear. He hears every cry. But His timing is not rushed. When the world feels overwhelming, don't look away—look deeper and continue to participate in His redemptive work. He is not finished yet.

In this episode of The Realist and the Visionary, Dutch and Tena recap their wild experience at the Knicks parade before diving into a deeper conversation about media narratives, psychological operations, and the stories that dominate the public consciousness. From discussing high profile cases like Chud the Builder, Rick Chow, and Karmelo Anthony to questioning the role of mass distraction and social conditioning, the hosts explore whether we're seeing the full picture or just the version we're meant to see. If you enjoy challenging mainstream narratives, connecting unexpected dots, and thinking beyond the headlines, this episode is for you.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-realist-the-visionary--3304218/support.Check out our website:https://www.therealistthevisionary.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-realist-the-visionary--3304218/support.Follow us on IGFollow Us on TikTok

Air Date: 6–20-2026 Today we explore how political revenge became official government policy. The Department of Justice has dropped fraud cases while opening vindictive investigations into Trump's critics. Judges who rule against him face death threats at home with no federal protection and thousands of DOJ lawyers have walked out the door, leaving the agency hollowed out by loyalty tests and bent toward retribution.

Send us Fan MailA baby asks for “mama,” and two adults laugh back, “There is no mama.” That short viral moment is heartbreaking on the surface, but we think it also reveals something deeper about the way modern culture talks about same-sex marriage, commercial surrogacy, and what counts as a family.I'm joined by my daughter Hannah as we slow down and look past the news cycle. We start with why the video felt so evil to so many people, not only because it provokes a child to tears, but because it treats a child's mother as optional. From there we revisit a question some people warned about years ago after Obergefell: what about the children? We talk plainly about how no “private” adult choice stays private once a child is involved, and why children's rights must come before adult agendas.We also bring in the child development and sociology side. We outline what social scientists commonly acknowledge about socioemotional health: biology matters, gender differences matter, and parental loss is harmful whether it comes through divorce, abandonment, death, adoption, IVF, or third party reproduction. We challenge the slogan “love is enough,” discuss why some studies are methodologically weak, and point listeners to research associated with Paul Sullins and Mark Regnerus. Finally, we share testimony from adult children and stories drawn from Katie Faust's Them Before Us, where “father mother hunger” shows up again and again.If you care about faith, family, and the real-world impact of marriage and reproductive technology on kids, listen through to the end, then subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.Support the showhttps://www.jacksonfamilyministry.comhttps://bobslone.com/home/podcast-production/

Imagine you come home from a pick-up basketball game at your church's gym, to find your wife and two small children slaughtered in your garage. But wait! It gets worse!Now imagine after a few short days of inept, possibly corrupt, investigation and, despite the fact you have 11 witnesses swearing you were with them at the precise time the murders took place, you are arrested for the crime. Not done yet.  You are convicted twice with twoappeals vacating your previous convictions. Three times the charm you say?  Join me today as we navigate the 13-year odyssey that is the case of former Indianna State Trooper David Camm and his quest for justice. My guest is former FBI Agent and Investigator for the defense, Gary Dunn.Producer's Note: This edition of MMF is just under 2 hours in length. I hope you will take the time to follow the story to its conclusion…for David Camm.

DRH, ressources humaines, expérience collaborateur, management, marque employeur, QVCT, moments de vie, personnalisation RH, dialogue social, inclusion : cet épisode de Nouveaux Prismes touche à tout ce qui fait la réalité du terrain RH aujourd'hui.Yalcin Avcioglu est DRH de la Caisse d'épargne Hauts-de-France. Depuis trois ans, il a restructuré en profondeur la politique RH de son organisation autour d'un concept : les moments de vie des collaborateurs.51 moments identifiés. Mariage, divorce, naissance, deuil, maladie, handicap, aidance, première prise de poste de manager, rentrée scolaire. Des moments privés ou professionnels qui ont tous un impact sur la vie au travail et que la RH peut accompagner si elle se donne les outils pour le faire.Dans cet épisode, Yalcin explique comment il a construit cette transformation de façon progressive, sans grande messe RH, en s'appuyant sur trois leviers : la data et l'automatisation, les RRH comme pierre angulaire de l'accompagnement, et les managers comme maillons de proximité.On parle d'un CRM dédié aux ressources humaines qui permet à chaque RRH d'intervenir au bon moment. D'un outil de lecture personnalisée des accords d'entreprise pour chaque collaborateur. Et de messages individualisés, avec le prénom des enfants, envoyés à chaque parent avant la rentrée scolaire.Ce que l'on apprend dans cet épisode :— Pourquoi la personnalisation RH ne fonctionne que si les fondamentaux de la politique sociale sont solides— Comment identifier et structurer des moments de vie sans tomber dans l'intrusion ni l'ingérable— Le rôle du DPO dans les limites de ce qu'on peut tracker — et comment faire autrement— Comment embarquer les managers sans leur "vendre" une stratégie— Ce que ça donne sur le NPS collaborateur : de -34 à +43 en quelques années, sur 3 000 collaborateurs avec 80 % de participationÀ écouter si vous êtes DRH, HRBP, manager RH, ou simplement convaincu que l'expérience collaborateur mérite mieux qu'un intranet et un accord de participation.Disponible sur Ausha, Spotify et Apple Podcasts.Ressources humaines, DRH, expérience collaborateur, moments de vie, management, QVCT, marque employeur, dialogue social, inclusion, personnalisation RH, NPS collaborateur, CRM RHHébergé par Ausha.

079 The roots of inequality and exploitation run far deeper than the machinations of privileged elites and would be dictators.  Behind the insatiable quest for power and control hides an unexamined primal fear that defies a political solution. Death is the great equalizer.  History is defined by world leaders and political activists consumed by the struggle to defy the truth of impermanence by any means, including engaging in horrendous acts of violence.  When the world is literally on fire spending time on the meditation cushion facing our existential issues can seem indulgent. However, without cultural rituals and ways of relating to death we risk becoming a version of the oppressor or tyrant we claim to be fighting.In this conversation with Dr James Rowe, author of Radical Mindfulness: Why transforming the fear of death is politically vital, we discuss the enduring will to supremacy and why the fear of death is the ultimate upstream cause of so many personal and political conflicts.  We also discuss how mind/body practices like meditation can help us metabolize existential fear, making us more effective and compassionate change makers.Photo by Photo by Chris on UnsplashMusic used in this episode by atlasaudio on PixabayFollow Awake In Relationship on Instagram and LinkedinIf you have been loving what you are hearing on AIR  please rate, review and subscribe to get the latest content fresh to your device.  Sign up for our newsletter at awakeinrelationship.com to learn about upcoming programs and events.Do you have suggestions for guests or feedback on the show?  Send us an email at awakeinrelationshippodcast@gmail.com

In this excerpt from their conversations, she reflects on how her personal experience witnessing gun violence growing up in Detroit inspired her book.

In Episode 334 of Everyday Injustice, host David Greenwald speaks with Massachusetts criminal defense attorney Ernie Stone about the growing importance of trauma-informed criminal defense and why understanding clients' life experiences is essential to effective representation. Drawing on nearly two decades of legal practice, Stone argues that what is often called “trauma-informed” lawyering should simply be considered good lawyering, emphasizing that attorneys must understand how trauma shapes communication, memory, decision-making, and trust. The conversation explores the prevalence of trauma among people involved in the criminal legal system and the challenges attorneys face when clients struggle to tell their stories in a linear fashion or respond predictably under stress. Stone explains that criminal charges themselves can be traumatic events, particularly for individuals already facing housing instability, mental health challenges, substance use disorders, or other forms of adversity. He discusses how lawyers can better serve clients by recognizing trauma symptoms and adjusting their communication strategies accordingly. Greenwald and Stone also examine the rise of holistic defense models that combine legal representation with social services, housing assistance, mental health support, and other interventions designed to address the root causes that often bring people into repeated contact with the justice system. While acknowledging resource limitations facing public defender offices across the country, Stone argues that investing in supportive services is both more humane and more cost-effective than relying on incarceration as a substitute for social policy. The episode concludes with a broader discussion about empathy, legal education, and professional responsibility. Stone contends that understanding trauma should be viewed as an ethical obligation for attorneys, much like technological competence has become a professional requirement. For listeners interested in learning more, he recommends The Body Keeps the Score as an accessible introduction to trauma research. Together, Greenwald and Stone make the case that a more trauma-informed approach can improve outcomes not only for defendants, but for the justice system as a whole.

Talk isn't enough to prove you're going to heaven, but it is enough to send you to hell. Both thoughts are true for the same reason: talking is so easy to do, in fact, it has never been easier. Nearly everything in our lives has made it faster and simpler to talk. We came up with the landline to share voices immediately. Then we made the cell phone so we could have this ability anywhere. Then we made the internet so we could permanently place our voices out there to talk for us even when we are not talking. Now with AI I can build things just by talking. Indeed, what hath man wrought? The way that this promise was presented to us was that all of this communication would be like sending torches into the darkness. Truth as it really was could be revealed for all to see in the flickering digital light. Injustices could be corrected, power could be held accountable, yes, even the gospel could be communicated faster and wider than ever. All of it was and is true. However, as James tells us, the darkness we bear those torches within is a bone-dry forest, branches and leaves everywhere ready to lap up the least spark. It is no wonder that James spends so much time on speech and the tongue, as this is quite a power to steward. The solution isn't to extinguish the torch. How can the Savior known as the Word have silent followers? Woe to us if we preach not the gospel, but woe to us if we do not tame our tongues. The solution that James gives to us is implicit rather than explicit, but the way he details the problem is a useful teaching tool in itself. When I began the process of learning how to drive my mother's day one lesson was this: I was driving a 3 thousand pound death machine to myself and others if I use it improperly. It was a sober start, but it was necessary. I had to come to grips with what I was doing. Today, James gives some us talking lessons with the sobering introduction to begin.

When a lion roars at 114 decibels, it jolts you back to reality. In the opening message of the Let the Lion Roar series, Rev. Vicki Harrison walks through Amos 1-2 and asks a question many of us have wrestled with: when we look at the injustice and suffering in our world, does God actually care? The answer Amos gives is yes. God is not silent. He is in pursuit. This message explores who Amos was, a humble shepherd and fig farmer God called to prophesy to the prosperous and apathetic northern kingdom of Israel. We see God roaring in judgment against the surrounding nations, then against Judah, and finally against Israel itself for oppressing the poor, trampling the vulnerable, and worshiping God on Sunday while tolerating injustice on Monday. God sees everything, He counts everything, and His patience has a breaking point. Key scripture: Amos 1-2, with the central declaration "The Lord roars from Zion and thunders from Jerusalem" (Amos 1:2) and the indictment of Israel in Amos 2:6-8. Rev. Harrison also points to 1 John 5:19 and shares the challenge from International Justice Mission's Gary Haugen: what is God's plan for justice in the world? Just us. We are plan A, and there is no plan B. The invitation is to pray every day this week over a justice issue and ask God how He wants us to respond, both as a church and personally.

In Episode 333 of Everyday Injustice, host David Greenwald speaks with journalist and author Justine van der Leun about her new book, Unreasonable Women: Three Stories of Violence, Imprisonment and Extraordinary Survival. The conversation explores a troubling reality within the criminal legal system: how survivors of domestic violence and sexual abuse are often criminalized rather than protected. Drawing on years of investigative reporting and extensive research, van der Leun examines the stories of women whose attempts to survive violence ultimately led to their incarceration. Van der Leun explains how her investigation began with the case of Nikki Addimando, a New York woman convicted after killing her abusive partner while claiming self-defense. The case prompted a larger question: How often are survivors punished for acts committed in the context of abuse? To find answers, van der Leun conducted a groundbreaking survey of approximately 10,000 incarcerated women, receiving more than 1,000 responses. Her findings suggest that a significant portion of women in prison are there because they acted to protect themselves or loved ones from violence, while many more carry extensive histories of abuse that went unaddressed by social institutions before they entered the criminal legal system. The episode highlights the stories of three women featured in the book: Tanisha Williams of Michigan, who became entangled in a murder case after being coerced by an abusive partner; Gemma Heffernan of Missouri, who fought back against a husband who subjected her to years of violence; and TC Brooks of California, who killed her abusive stepfather after enduring years of sexual abuse and witnessing ongoing violence against her mother. Through these stories, van der Leun argues that the legal system often struggles to recognize the realities of coercion, trauma, and survival, instead relying on rigid categories that separate victims from offenders. Throughout the discussion, Greenwald and van der Leun examine broader questions about accountability, systemic failure, and reform. Van der Leun contends that many of the women filling America's prisons were failed long before they entered the criminal legal system and that their cases reveal deep structural shortcomings in how society responds to abuse. The conversation offers a powerful look at the intersection of gender, violence, trauma, and incarceration, challenging listeners to reconsider who the justice system punishes—and why.

What can you do when you're afraid, anxious, exhausted, or wrongly accused, and you don't know how to pray?Psalms 3–8 are David's raw, unfiltered conversations with God. They read less like religious poetry and more like texts you'd send to a trusted friend. In this episode, we walk you through six Psalms that cover the full emotional spectrum from fear and betrayal to wonder and praise. We also show you how to easily use these Psalms as helpful prayers in your own life.What you'll learn:[7:57] Fear & betrayal: How David's shield of faith (Psalm 3) gives you a practical way to fight panic when life feels like it's falling apart[11:20] Anxiety & sleep: Why Psalms 3 and 4 were used together as a daily circle of protection and how they can quiet your anxious mind at night[17:43] Exhaustion & suffering: How Psalm 5 and 6 give you God's permission to cry out when you're alone and exhausted from a prolonged trial[22:13] Injustice & accusation: What to pray when you've been wrongly accused and need God to vindicate you (Psalm 7)[25:20] Awe & wonder: How Psalm 8, and Jesus quoting it in Matthew 21, reveals just how significant you are to GodPsalms 3-8 Show Notes:ACTS Prayer GuidePsalm 8 (Hallé) by Phil WickhamPsalms Playlist on Apple MusicPsalms Playlist on SpotifyPsalms Roadmap - Coming Soon!Group Discussion Questions for Psalms 3–8:David used very raw, unfiltered language in his laments: exhaustion, anguish, weeping all night, begging God to vindicate him. Does that kind of honesty in prayer come naturally to you, or do you tend to soften what you bring to God? What would it take for you to pray more like David?The Hebrew priests used Psalms 3 and 4 together daily as a circle of protection to manage their anxieties. Is there a certain Psalm or prayer you find yourself returning to in difficult seasons?Paul describes our current life as living in the "gap" between the perfection we were created for and the new heaven and new earth still to come.

Friends,Heather is back (after a grueling week; we wish her mother a speedy recovery). Today we take a deep dive into Trump's Department of Injustice, now headed by Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, who's criminally prosecuting Trump's enemies — including private citizens such as E. Jean Carroll. We also examine Trump and the Republican Party's obsession with testosterone — part of the so-called “manosphere” — which includes the scheduling of UFC cage matches on the White House's South Lawn, denigrating Democrats such as Senate candidate James Talarico as being “low T,” ridiculing LGBTQ+ people, Trump and Secretary of “War” Pete Hegseth's hyper-aggressiveness, and Trump's fear of strong women who stand up to him.We also discuss the blatant corruption of the Trump regime and its relationship to the horrific U.S. economy. So please pull up a chair, grab a cuppa, and join in the conversation. This is a public episode.

In this episode, Carlos McAdory shares his unbelievable journey from growing up in St. Paul, Minnesota, to becoming involved in street crime, armed robberies, and eventually receiving a federal life sentence. He breaks down how a local robbery case became a federal Hobbs Act conspiracy, why his codefendants cooperated, and how refusing to cooperate led to an extreme sentence: 20 life sentences. Carlos also explains the legal loopholes, sentencing errors, and federal “three strikes” issue that ultimately helped him beat life and come home after serving 19 years, 2 months, and 4 days. This conversation covers street life in Minnesota, prison politics, federal sentencing, the trial penalty, legal appeals, studying law from prison, and the mindset it took to keep fighting when the system said he would never come home.

When Shaun Ossei-Owusu looked around at his classmates at UC Berkeley School of Law, there were many upper middle class children of lawyers who were coming straight from their undergraduate degrees. There were not many people like him, a child of Ghanaian immigrants who grew up in an impoverished South Bronx community and was now finishing his PhD as a returning student. That background and his academic training gave him a different perspective on the law school curriculum. For example, his Property Law class was mostly focused on the ins and outs of titles and transfers. "It was strange to me, particularly being going to school at Berkeley, how little the class said about homelessness," Ossei-Owusu tells host Lee Rawles in this episode of the Modern Law Library. "We have about 750,000 people in this country who are unhoused in any given night. And this is the course, Property Law, that's most directly concerned with how we organize access space and shelter. And the course doesn't say much about homelessness. And so I felt that that was strange, but I didn't want to be the student in class saying, 'Well, why aren't we talking about this?' " Ossei-Owusu went on to practice healthcare enforcement law at Sidley Austin, and worked for the Legal Aid Society of the District of Columbia. His time as a litigator and public interest lawyer gave him a look at how law school principles fared in real world situations. "Lawyers are implicated in many of the hot-button issues of the day, and much of that is tied to the ways that we train lawyers in law school to distance legal reasoning from social and moral consequences–and the ways they bring that habit into legal practice, whether it be BigLaw, public interest lawyering, or government lawyering," Ossei-Owusu says. It's something he now thinks deeply about as a professor at the University of Pennsylvania Law School who focuses on criminal justice, social welfare and professional responsibility. In Law on Trial: An Unlikely Insider Reckons with Our Legal System, he calls out the ways this early training can result in further injustice and inequality for society. "Professional ethics say your job is to primarily serve clients, which creates an inevitable distance between what lawyers do and who pays the price," writes Ossei-Owusu in Law on Trial. "The result is a system that trains smart people to engineer brilliant solutions while staying disconnected from the human wreckage they may leave behind." In this episode of the podcast, Ossei-Owusu and Rawles talk about the hard truths of public interest legal work, how regulatory work can sometimes have more impact than litigation, and and how good intentions alone cannot erase harm.

“As long as democracy is a collective endeavour of all the people who belong to it, in some sense it can never be finished — because we are constantly bequeathing to the next generation the opportunity and the freedom to have these conversations over and over again.” — Alexandra Natapoff It's less than six weeks until America's 250th birthday. The official America 250 store is selling T-shirts while Harvard Law School is doing something slightly less commercial. 62 HLS professors have written 1,000-word essays, assembled into a single volume to be published on July 4. Entitled America Unfinished: Two Hundred and Fifty Years of Law and Governance, it's co-edited by Alexandra Natapoff, a Harvard Law professor who spent years as a federal public defender in Baltimore. The title, of course, is borrowed from the Gettysburg Address, where Lincoln charged the living with completing “the unfinished work” of those who died in the Civil War. So is America unfinished or is it just getting started? For Natapoff and other Harvard Law School professors like this year's Pulitzer Prize-winning Jill Lepore, the answer is suitably complex. Yes and no and maybe. Everything all at once. The essays focus on 250 years of both justice and injustice in America. Perhaps the only thing all authors agree on is the central role of capitalism in the history of the United States. Follow the money, Natapoff suggests. Those dollars will transport the reader to the heart of the American story. That said, America Unfinished will certainly cost you less than a three-year Harvard Law degree. And if you wait six months, the book will be available at no cost online. So follow the money. It will take you to some unexpectedly free places. Five Takeaways •       The Gettysburg Address as the Title's Source: The book does not merely allude to Lincoln's famous speech — it reproduces it at the front, so readers can go back to the original. In the Address, Lincoln charged the living with completing “the unfinished work” of those who died at Gettysburg — the work of building a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Natapoff and Charles chose this frame because it captures both the challenge and the hope: democracy is unfinished in the sense that it demands active work from every generation. It is not a gift that has been fully delivered. It is a task being handed on. •       America and Democracy Are Not the Same Thing: Andrew's challenge — you use the words interchangeably — earns a concession. Natapoff's work in criminal justice has led her to argue repeatedly that the American criminal system fails many tests of democracy: it is exclusive, inegalitarian, overly coercive, inconsistent with democratic principles. So ‘America' and ‘democracy' are not synonyms in the book. Many of the 62 essays disagree about the state of various pieces of governance. The book's inquiry is whether it is fair to call any particular piece of American legal governance a democracy — which both editors consider a compliment, and not a certainty. •       A Federal Public Defender in Baltimore: The Biography Behind the Scholarship: Before she became a law professor, Natapoff was a federal public defender in Baltimore's federal courts. Her job was to be adverse to the federal government all day every day, defending some of the most vulnerable and dispossessed people in the city against the massive resources and power of the federal apparatus. Those years shaped everything: her subsequent twenty years of scholarship on criminal courts, plea bargaining, misdemeanors, and race and inequality; her book Punishment Without Crime; and her contribution to America Unfinished. In her reading, the experience of her clients — people facing off against the federal government — is now more widely shared than it used to be. •       It's the Money, Not the Lawyers: Dan Wang's recent book Breakneck contrasts China, run by engineers, and America, run by lawyers. Natapoff's counter, via the book's economic governance essays: it's much more complicated than that. Six very different scholars who disagree about almost everything converge on a perhaps surprising answer: it's the money. Financial interests, corporate interests, the ownership class — in one way or another, they've been running America. The lawyers helped. They were part of the management scheme. But they weren't making the decisions. If you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail. •       Molly Brady's Essay: Property Law and the Destruction of Community: Asked to pick her favourite essay without starting a fight with 61 colleagues, Natapoff flags the very last one: Professor Maureen “Molly” Brady on property law. Brady argues that property law has permitted suburban sprawl and the destruction of physical community — the kind of infrastructure that makes analog life (libraries, neighbours, public space) possible — while being profligate in its support for social media and the dispersed, thinner version of community. She exhorts us to remember how law has contributed positively to communities we are proud of, and to stand up for that vision. For Natapoff, it captures both the critical nature of this moment and why lawyering still holds out some important promise. About the Guest Alexandra Natapoff is the Lee S.

Alex Schroeder | Micah | 1. God's Indictment against Injustice 2. God's Judgment against Judah 3. God's Restoration through a Ruler

In this episode, we sit down with Sara, a 40-year-old third-generation former Jehovah's Witness who shares a raw and revealing look at the cost of high-control religious living. Sara describes an upbringing defined by the heavy influence of her grandfather, a prominent elder who provided a sense of "structure" and "safety" until his death when Sara was a young teenager. Following his passing, Sara witnessed her family's transition from "hero" status to "villains" in the eyes of the congregation after an uncle was jailed for child abuse, exposing the fickle nature of the "brotherhood" and the organization's priority of appearance over the well-being of its members. The conversation delves into the devastating trauma of institutional shunning and the systemic failures regarding child protection within the Watchtower. Sara recounts the harrowing experience of seeing a convicted predator reinstated while in jail to the applause of the congregation, while she was castigated for seeking her own identity. Now 17 years removed from the organization, Sara discusses her "miraculous" journey of reclaiming her life, earning a bachelor's degree at age 40, and utilizing professional therapy to heal from PTSD. This episode is a powerful testament to "changing the family tree" and finding unconditional love outside of a closed system. Key Takeaways The Utility of Members: Sara reflects on how her family was only valued as a "good example" as long as her grandfather was alive and serving the congregation's needs; once he died, the family felt "invisible" and abandoned. Paranoia and Control: The episode explores the extreme demonization of secular culture, including childhood phobias regarding "spirit-possessed" toys like troll dolls and posters of unicorns. Performance vs. Reality: Sara highlights the "double life" many Witnesses lead, noting that the persona required by the organization is often the "farce," while the "rebellious" actions are often a person's first attempts at authentic self-discovery. The Injustice of the Judicial System: A central theme is the disparity in discipline; Sara was disfellowshipped for normal human development (sex before marriage), while her abuser remained in good standing and in another case an abuser was quickly reinstated despite criminal convictions. Reclaiming Higher Education: Despite being told growing up that college was not important or "wicked," Sara emphasizes that secular education and professional mental health tools were the keys to her successful recovery. Direct Quotes "They care about their appearance… more than any of the group". "We're so damn hungry that we'll accept a crumb and make a meal out of it". "I changed the family tree in a way".

Adam and Dr. Drew discuss how the world seems to have lost its sense of fun and reflect on how much happier and more adventurous life felt in decades like the 1980s. They get into the importance of fulfillment, why modern kids spend more time indoors playing video games, and Gavin Newsom's latest plan to provide free diapers. Later, Adam shows Drew his newest AI-generated Burt Reynolds as Jennifer Newsom video, leading to a breakdown of Jennifer Newsom's most bizarre moments.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Dr. Drew talks about feeling his age catching up to him, while Adam reflects on the days when he could survive on just a few hours of sleep and how much he now values a good night's rest. The guys also take a trip down memory lane by revisiting slang from their younger days before Dr. Drew breaks down the supposed Hantavirus outbreak and explains why there's little reason for concern. Adam also gives an update on the frustrating construction process surrounding a house being rebuilt in Malibu and the overregulation involved with building in California.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Fr. Mike uses King Saul as an example that God does not unchoose those he has chosen, and never loses faith in us. Even if we feel someone is in power unjustly, it's God who decides who holds power, not us. Today's readings are 1 Samuel 24 and Psalm 57.
