Something a little different, as today we review the recently remastered in 4K from a 35mm original camera negative by Kino Lorber, a boutique Blu-ray distributor. This new edition comes in both 4KUHD (two-disc) and Blu-ray (single disc) and can be purchased at the Kino Lorber website. Along with a new master of the film, each set (either two-disc or single) comes with audio commentary from directorSimon Wincer, a new interview with star Billy Zane, and an interview with film composer David Newman. A trailer is also included. At Chronicle Chamber, we picked up a copy for review. Watch or listen to our video review, and read on for our impressions of the new master, as well as special feature highlights. The New MasterOne of the elements to this film that Simon Wincer frequently comes back to in his audio commentary is the lighting, and it's for good reason. This new edition of The Phantom is beautiful. Compared to previous releases, the color and visuals are crisp, clean, and warm. There was a decision to use natural lighting as opposed to filters during production, and it pays off nicely. In outdoor adventure sequences, the natural lighting makes the action feel real and believable. In closed settings, such as Xander Drax and Diana Palmer's introduction scene early on in the film, a functional, expository sequence feels glamorous and stunning. When Dave Palmer agrees to send his niece, Diana, on a quest during this sequence, this new master captures the warmth and ornate decor of the art deco style of the 1930s. The sound is also markedly better than previous editions, making for an overall enjoyable rewatch that feels closer to what audiences experienced in theaters 30 years ago. The Special FeaturesDirector Simon Wincer's Audio CommentaryAudio commentaries can be hit or miss with many Bluray and 4KUHD releases, even from boutique companies. The Simon Wincer commentary included with this new edition of The Phantom lands right in the middle. It's not necessarily exciting, but it's not the worst commentary either. Wincer does highlight some of the elements and motifs he was going for, and he does spend a great deal of time talking about the use of natural lighting versus filtering. For Phantom fans looking for answers to decisions this adaptation makes, like why Guran was changed into a child helper of The Phantom or why a skeleton strangles a grave robber to death, there aren't any answers here. The quality of the audio commentary, at times, is also suspect. Right off the bat, there's a noticeable audio lag, as if this was recorded over Zoom or some other online meeting software. That's a bit of a disappointment. Billy Zane Interview: “Kismet in the Jungle”Thirty years after the release of the film, Billy Zane is a master craftsman at discussing The Phantom film. Many of the ideas and motifs he touches upon in this new interview have been covered elsewhere in talks at Supanova Con and other interviews. Zane highlights his love of the character stemming from collecting Frew Comics on visits to Australia and notes that, in his performance, he was trying to embody the classic adventure films of classic Hollywood from the likes of Douglas Fairbanks, Errol Flynn, John Wayne, and others. This interview has the highest production values to it, and for fans looking to see Zane wax poetic about all things The Phantom, it's a good interview. David Newman Interview: “Slam Evil: Scoring The Phantom”David Newman is a phenomenal composer, and to see him among the interviews included in this new release is something out of a dream for a huge fan of film scores (such as myself). This interview was conducted over Zoom or some other type of online meeting software, so the production value is a stark difference compared to Zane's interview. For film score enthusiasts, the soundtrack to The Phantom is a hidden gem. It's fast, rhythmic, complicated, and powerful. For Newman, putting this score together was mostly done on instinct and was something akin to a nightmare, which is unfortunate to learn. In the interview, Newman states that scoring The Phantom was a last-minute rush job that compiled hours and hours of work over a very short period, often with little to no sleep. While Newman doesn't have great memories of working on The Phantom, it's the film in his IMDB that he worked the hardest on. For those looking to learn a little about what's buried in the beat and rhythm of the soundtrack, Newman speaks to this. For Those Who Came In Late… What's the verdict?For Phantom “phans” who want to revisit this adaptation or film fans looking to tap into a little 90s nostalgia, this new master is absolutely stunning and the best version of The Phantom commercially available. For collectors who love to dive deep into special features and bonus content included in boutique collections like these, it's a bit of a miss. Apart from the Billy Zane interview, the other two special features feel hastily compiled to pad the set, and it's not worth the spend if you're primarily looking to learn more about the production and behind-the-scenes of The Phantom. Verdict: Buy it for the film, not the special features. Support the show
John Wayne and Stew count down their Top 25 Films of the last 25 years.
You’re listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for May 27, 2026. We open with the growing controversy at Delaney Hall — the immigration detention facility in New Jersey now at the center of a political firestorm after detainees launched a hunger strike demanding better food, including culturally specific meals. We break down the difference between humane treatment and hospitality, why the left is framing detention as cruelty itself, and why Secretary Markwayne Mullin’s response — “This is not a Holiday Inn” — instantly became the defining line of the debate. We also explain the deeper issue driving the outrage: whether the left’s real objection is conditions inside detention centers or immigration enforcement itself. In our Top 3, Texas Senator John Cornyn suffers a crushing primary defeat to Attorney General Ken Paxton after President Trump’s endorsement helped fuel another major MAGA victory — making Trump-backed candidates a staggering 119-for-119 in 2026 races. Then Maryland Governor Wes Moore signs sweeping new gun restrictions targeting Glock-style handguns, prompting an immediate constitutional challenge from the NRA. And former Attorney General Pam Bondi lands a new role inside the Trump administration’s Artificial Intelligence Advisory Panel after stepping away from the DOJ amid a thyroid cancer diagnosis. We also dive into why patriotism itself has become controversial in modern America. Using a powerful recording of John Wayne reciting the Pledge of Allegiance, we ask how loving your country became viewed as radical by parts of the political left — and whether America’s approaching 250th birthday is exposing a deeper cultural divide over national identity, citizenship, and the meaning of the American experiment. Our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson tackle the bizarre world of so-called “audio drugs” — including binaural beats, music frequencies, and the growing debate over whether sound can alter mood, behavior, and even brain chemistry. That conversation expands into the influence of music on mental health, violence, spirituality, parenting, and whether some forms of entertainment can genuinely shape human behavior for good or for evil. In our Digging Deep segment, we examine Trump’s unprecedented political dominance inside the Republican Party as his endorsed candidates continue winning at a historic pace. We debate whether Trump himself is the movement or whether his popularity is simply the result of policies conservatives believe actually work. Then we turn to Texas Democrat Senate nominee James Talarico — a progressive seminary student whose comments on abortion, gender identity, and Christianity are raising eyebrows even beyond conservative circles. We break down his claims that “God is non-binary,” why critics say he is rewriting Scripture to fit progressive ideology, and why polls suggesting he could compete statewide in Texas have Republicans alarmed. We also cover the Trump administration’s proposal to halt international airport processing operations in sanctuary jurisdictions that refuse to cooperate with ICE. We explain the constitutional logic behind the move, why cities like New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco could be affected, and whether sanctuary policies can realistically coexist with federally managed international travel and customs enforcement. For our Bright Spot, we spotlight new research showing that making children laugh may be one of the most important things parents can do for healthy brain development. Scientists say humor strengthens emotional resilience, reduces stress, and helps children better process complex information — leading to a broader conversation about joy, family connection, and why laughter may be one of the most overlooked ingredients in raising healthy kids. We also discuss Europe’s accelerating crackdown on free speech as Germany moves toward requiring social media platforms to prioritize government-approved “reliable” media sources — raising major questions about censorship, state-controlled information, and whether the West is drifting toward managed speech systems once associated with authoritarian regimes. And we close with an incredible story out of Kansas, where 12-year-old fossil enthusiast Corbin Bullard discovered a fully intact Tylosaurus skeleton during a 4-H field trip — including the skull and vertebrae of a massive prehistoric sea predator that once swam across ancient North America.

Fire up the grill and grab a fresh pistachio muffin, because the What's on Your Mind show is broadcasting live from the Petro Serve USA station in beautiful Harwood, North Dakota. Host Scott kicks off a packed Friday Talk Radio Town Hall with U.S. Senator Kevin Kramer, diving headfirst into the high-stakes chess match with Iran, the real motives keeping the Strait of Hormuz tight, and whether it's time to "finish the job". Scott also gets remarkably candid about his recent travels to Norway, sparking an evolutionary look at America's food supply and the growing "Make America Healthy Again" movement. Later in the hour, the studio turns into an international stage. We sit down with four legal Persian-Iranian student and employment visa holders who share harrowing, first-hand accounts of the murderous regime back home, detailing the absolute gravity of public executions, internet blackouts, and the unintended fallout of the administration's recent sweeping visa pause. Scott gives a passionate call to action, offering listeners the exact blueprint to bypass the gatekeepers and let their voices be heard in Congress. Plus, we recap world-class insights from the Williston Basin Petroleum Conference with American Petroleum Institute CEO Mike Sommers, who lays out why AI, natural gas, and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum are the key trifecta to winning the global tech race against China. Finally, we wrap up with an inspiring "Feel Good Friday" segment featuring Tracy Allen, founder of Amistad Worldwide, to explore how a grassroots North Dakota charity is rescuing castaway orphans and abandoned widows in India and Nepal through the power of clean water and local sewing centers. Standout Moments & Timestamps [00:01:25] Bullying the Globe for 50 Years: Senator Kevin Kramer breaks down the fundamental challenges of negotiating with a regime whose soldiers value dying more than living, exploring Trump's refusal to sign a weak, Obama-style nuclear clock-runner. [00:03:55] A Hooligan's Message to the Senate: Live at the pump, a decorated Air National Guard veteran from the "Hooligans" commands the mic, urging Senator Kramer to let the military finish the job for the North Dakota service members who paid in blood. [00:05:00] Squeezing the Pillows of Harwood: Scott breaks multi-tasking protocol to rave about the locally-sourced John & Wayne burgers and Petro Serve's famous daily-baked buns that are literally "as soft as a pillow". [00:07:45] The Whistleblower in the Grocery Aisle: Scott recounts his fourth journey to Norway, sharing how…
What does it look like to follow God… when everything in your life is falling apart? In this powerful Memorial Day episode and tribute, Dr. Zach Clinton sits down backstage at the most recent Ignite Men’s Impact Weekend with Green Beret veteran, Purple Heart recipient, Silver & Bronze Star Medalist, and warrior, John Wayne Walding, a man whose life is a living testimony of faith, courage, and resilience under fire. John Wayne served 12 years in the U.S. Army, including 7 years in the elite 3rd Special Forces Group. During the Battle of Shok Valley on April 6, 2008, he was struck by sniper fire that nearly severed his leg. In a moment that defines both grit and resolve, he applied a tourniquet and kept fighting alongside his team for hours. But this story isn’t just about what happened on the battlefield. It’s about what happened after. John Wayne opens up about the long road of recovery, becoming a below-the-knee amputee, and the internal battles many don’t see: mental health struggles, challenges in marriage, and the quiet weight that so many men carry but rarely talk about. Throughout it all, one truth stands out: faith is not tested in comfort; it’s revealed in the fire. We talk about what it means to trust God in suffering, to ask for strength instead of an easier life, and how pain, when surrendered, can become a tool for growth rather than an excuse for passivity. This conversation is also a direct challenge to men: to reject passivity, to embrace responsibility, to live with courage, humility, and intentionality, and to understand that real strength includes the willingness to be vulnerable and ask for help. John Wayne’s life reminds us that being a godly man isn’t about perfection…it’s about perseverance, surrender, and service. If you’re walking through pain, feeling stuck, or tempted to check out, this episode will meet you there… and call you forward.Links: Visit John Wayne’s Website: https://www.johnwaynewalding.com/ Watch John Wayne on The Resilient Show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbnSPU-NVTg Book John Wayne to Speak: https://www.gdaspeakers.com/speaker/john-wayne-walding/ Struggling with your Suffering?

On this episode of The Jon Gordon Podcast, I sit down with John Wayne Walding—Green Beret, Purple Heart recipient, and speaker—for an extraordinary conversation about resilience, purpose, and faith in the aftermath of unimaginable adversity. John shares the unforgettable story of April 6th, 2008: a harrowing firefight in Afghanistan that left him a below-knee amputee, fighting to survive while carrying his own leg down a mountain. With honesty and humility, John recounts not only the intense physical and mental battle in the aftermath, but also the spiritual turning points that transformed his pain into gratitude and a new sense of mission. From turbulent early years and military brotherhood to becoming the first amputee to graduate Green Beret sniper school, John's journey is a testament to what it means to move forward when life changes in a moment. Throughout our conversation, John opens up about the process of wrestling with anger, rebuilding his life, and ultimately finding strength through service and faith. We explore themes of identity, finding meaning in suffering, the power of teamwork, and the difference between "believing in God" and truly depending on Him. John also speaks candidly about honoring the sacrifices of friends, overcoming addiction, and the importance of using one's story to inspire and serve others across the country. John Wayne Walding SFC (R) John Wayne Walding, born on the 4th of July, was raised in Groesbeck, Texas. He spent nearly 12 years in the United States Army, including seven years in the prestigious 3rd Special Forces Group at Ft. Bragg, North Carolina. On April 6, 2008, John lost his right leg to sniper fire during the battle of Shok Valley. He continued to fight alongside his brothers for four more hours earning him the Sliver Star and Purple heart. Post-injury John attended Special Forces Sniper School. Upon graduation he became the first amputee to become a Green Beret Sniper. Additionally, he has run marathons, completed death marches, and climbed mountains. In 2017 John founded Gallantry Global Logistics, a service-disabled veteran/minority owned logistics company that specializes in shipments of consequence and whose purpose is to provide the next mission to Veterans after their service to this Nation. John travels the country speaking to veterans' organizations, corporations and the public about leadership, excellence, overcoming adversity using his motto "Lean Forward, Fight Hard". John strongly believes his biggest accomplishment is marrying his beautiful wife, Amy and having their four wonderful children: Emma 21, Sam 20, Andie 15, and Hannah 12. They reside in Gunter Texas.

On The Coaching 101 Podcast, hosts Daniel Chamberlain and Coach Kenny Simpson discuss why practice scheduling and efficiency matter, especially during spring ball and installs. They share a John Wayne quote on courage and relate it to fear of failure through Daniel's story about his son facing a pressure at-bat. The episode promotes Simpson's Field House coaching community and briefly thanks sponsors Ace Sports, Winning Edge Performance Analytics, and Blended Threads. The main content defines what an efficient practice looks like based on a program's reality (staff size, roster size, two-way players), emphasizing clear daily priorities (1–3 goals), scheme-matched drills, Tony Holler's “wave theory” of high/low intensity, small-group coaching over “busy work,” and situational team periods. They argue shorter, organized practices beat long ones, stress scripting reps (including backups and young players), building a drill book, training players to run drills, using timekeeping, and having contingency plans when practice is disrupted.00:00 Welcome and Spring Ball00:25 Efficiency Mindset01:26 Quote of the Week Courage02:38 Beckett Baseball Story04:29 Fear of Failure Lessons04:47 Field House Coaching Community07:19 Sponsors and Partner Shoutouts10:52 What Efficient Practice Means14:14 Five Keys to Practice Efficiency20:26 Busy vs Productive Reps24:06 Game Like Drills Not Gadgets25:11 Balancing Install and Fundamentals26:28 Why Shorter Wins28:04 Shrink Time With Smarter Drills29:12 Drills Must Match Scheme31:21 Racehorse Training Mindset32:50 Focus Effort And Culture39:39 Scripting Reps For Everyone41:13 Drill Books And Player Led Execution43:01 Wave Theory And Rep Recovery49:09 Assistants Timers And Backup Plans53:15 Sponsors And Final SignoffDaniel Chamberlain:@CoachChamboOKChamberlainFootballConsulting@gmail.comchamberlainfootballconsulting.comKenny Simpson:@FBCoachSimpsonfbcoachsimpson@gmail.comFBCoachSimpson.com

The podcast hosts discussed personal updates and military experiences before sharing news stories. News Of the Week Terry shared a story about drunk deer in France, and warning drivers about inebriated wildlife, while Jill shared about firefighters rescuing a 2-year-old boy whose head got stuck between staircase balusters. The conversation included detailed recollections from Keith and Terry about their military boot camp experiences, including regulations about personal items and church services. The hosts also briefly mentioned an upcoming Amazon Audible promotion commercial. Keith discussed a case in Malaysia where a French teen faced charges for licking and posting a video of a vending machine straw, which led to public nuisance and mischief charges. Terry shared a story about Colorado Parks and Recreation removing a 250-pound black bear from a home using tranquilizers. Jill shared news about Jericho High School in New York having 21 valedictorians in their graduating class, with over 300 students total, highlighting the high academic achievement in the area. Keith shared a story about kamikaze dolphins, explaining that while Iran claimed to use mine-carrying dolphins against US warships, the US Navy’s Marine Mammal Program has a long history of using dolphins and sea lions for mine detection and harbor security, though not as weapons. Keith noted that modern drone technology has developed robotic versions of marine animals with cameras for surveillance purposes. The conversation then shifted to Terry, who began discussing a story about an Illinois museum receiving a speeding ticket for a replica Knight Rider car that hadn’t moved in over a decade. Jill's Trivia Quiz Jill then hosted a John Wayne trivia quiz where participants answered questions about the actor’s films, family members who appeared in his movies, and various details from his career. The quiz covered topics including which actress appeared in the most John Wayne films, which of his sons acted in nine of his movies, and which location he frequently used in his films.

Writer, Michael Elias, talks about growing up in the Catskills, where you had to make your money in the summer to survive the winter, and how that created a lot of tension. He also talks about taking acting classes, dealing with being an actor, and how acting helped him build scenes and characters. He talks about working for Glen Campbell without realizing how talented he was. He discusses his book Benders, L.A. and talks about going to Plato's Retreat and not scoring. He talks about Steve Martin and how The Frisco Kid was not what he originally thought it would be. It was originally supposed to be directed by Mike Nichols and star John Wayne. Carl Reiner may have made The Jerk better. Garry Marshall made Young Doctors in Love better, but some movies simply don't turn out the way you want them to. Michael wants people to know that Jews were all over the West and that minorities helped build this country. He says there was always a hangout somewhere. Mel Brooks was an egalitarian. Michael talks about having many writing partners, including Arnie Kogen, Rich Eustis, and Frank Shaw. He talks about getting kicked off The Ed Sullivan Show, writing for The Tonight Show, and learning from Neil Simon and Ed Weinberger. He wishes he could tell his mother what's going on in his life now and imagines writing letters to her today. He also talks about giving yourself permission to stop reading books halfway through. He remembers me playing with the microphone at my bar mitzvah. He talks about paying rent at forty-two dollars a month while working as a substitute teacher. His father, a doctor, never really understood what he did until he saw the pilot of Head of the Class. Howard Hesseman had demands even though he was about to be fired. Bio: Michael Elias grew up in the Catskill Mountains, a Red Diaper Borscht Belt Baby in a world of artists, intellectuals, tumlers, folk singers, boxers, and Jewish gangsters, some of whom sleep at the bottom of Loch Sheldrake. His childhood heroes were Jerry Lewis, Harry Belafonte, Rocky Marciano, and Abe ‘Kid Twist' Reles. Educated in the classics at St. John's College, Elias took his knowledge of ancient Greek and philosophy to New York, trained at the Actors Studio, acted in The Living Theatre, La MaMa and the Judson Poets Theatre. From there Elias and Frank Shaw dove into the world of stand-up comedy, playing coffee shops, night clubs, with five stints on The Tonight Show. Fired from Ed Sullivan they abandoned the act and came to Hollywood where he and Shaw wrote sit-coms, variety shows, and The Frisco Kid. After parting ways, Elias participated in the anti-Vietnam War movement, earned a subpoena from a Nixon grand jury, and teamed up with Rich Eustis and created Head of the Class. Elias continues to write novels and screenplays in Los Angeles, where he lives with his wife Bianca Roberts and their dachshund Mabel. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Welcome to The Reel Schmooze with ToI film reviewer Jordan Hoffman and host Amanda Borschel-Dan, where we bring you all the entertainment news and film reviews a Jew can use. We roll out with three Jangles -- news with a Jewish angle. Borschel-Dan gives her favorite actress, 96-year-old June Squib, a shoutout for her recent Tony nomination for "Marjorie Prime." Hoffman discusses his recent discovery of a famous Jewish porn star and also the new reboot of "Lord of the Flies" which hints that one of the boys is Jewish. We then turn to "Cast a Giant Shadow," the 1966 biopic of Colonel Mickey Marcus. David Daniel "Mickey" Marcus was a complicated character who was foundational to the organization of what became the Israel Defense Force. The United States Army colonel, who was later dubbed Israel's first general, was also instrumental at the Nuremberg Trials. Kirk Douglas plays Marcus and the rest of the all-star cast includes Senta Berger, Yul Brynner, John Wayne, Frank Sinatra and Angie Dickinson. The movie maven and our host disagreed about the film, so stick around to see if "Cast a Giant Shadow" gets an "oy," "meh" or "not bad" in this week's The Reel Schmooze. The Reel Schmooze is produced by Ari Schlacht and can be found wherever you get your podcasts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In a World of Cowboy Boots, Republic Boot Co Stands ApartWhen it comes to cowboy boots, there are two types of companies: mass-produced "ready-made" brands and small-batch custom bootmakers. Most major boot brands—Lucchese, Tony Lama, Nocona, Justin—are owned by private equity firms like Berkshire Hathaway. Meanwhile, many new direct-to-consumer startups are simply marketing operations selling factory-made boots from conglomerates in León, Mexico. On the other hand, traditional custom bootmakers are typically small teams of artisans crafting each pair by hand, often with wait times exceeding a year or two.Republic Boot Co bridges the gap—offering the best of both worlds.Founded with a unique vision, Republic blends the precision and efficiency of ready-made boots with the quality, character, and soul of custom craftsmanship. Our Houston bootshop delivers an immersive experience where visitors can watch custom boots being handcrafted while browsing our collection of ready-made boots and other finely made leather goods. For a taste of the experience, check out our YouTube channel.Our supply chain is vertically integrated - we own our crocodile farms, tannery, manufacturing and distribution.Thanks to our deep bench of master bootmakers, we offer truly custom boots under a year—without sacrificing quality. Our ready-made boots are built using the same techniques and standards as our custom line, with production managed to maintain consistency and affordability. Every pair is finished, modified, resoled, and quality-checked in our Houston shop. We are master bootmakers, and we stand behind every boot for life.A Legacy Rooted in Texas GritThe story of Republic Boot Co began in 2011, when founder Chris Conrad answered a divine calling to “Save Texas” by preserving its rich culture through handcrafted boots and leather goods. He and his wife liquidated their savings and opened a small Houston shop, assembling a team of the finest local craftsmen. Through years of dedication—marked by triumphs and trials worthy of the Texas Revolution itself—Republic Boot Co grew into an award-winning brand that embodies authenticity, heritage, and Texas pride."Walking into our shop feels like stepping into a blend of museum, saloon, engineering lab, and John Wayne film. It's not just retail—it's an experience."Our roots run deep. The Conrad family was among the first to settle in the Houston Heights in the late 1800s, and the shop today proudly honors that legacy.The Republic Wine Castle in the Hill Country is the latest location - learn about it hereThe Republic FamilyAt the heart of Republic Boot Co is our incredible team—the soul of our success. Fireball Bill, our General Manager, is a true force of energy who never meets a stranger. He and his wife, Lucky Laura, manage daily operations with Texas charm. Yoch manages the bootshop, while Spencer oversees production. Adam B is the GM over the Hill Country location. Augustine is the best boot repairman west of the Mississippi. Our bootshop team is deep and incredible.Our extended Republic Family includes many more. Their dedication, talent, and heart have carried Republic through the years—and we are beyond grateful.We are Christ-centered, faith-driven, and deeply thankful for this calling. We love meeting new folks and sharing what we do.Come join us at Republic—and maybe even earn a bootshop nickname.

So much of what is happening these days seems utterly nonsensical, from Trump’s war crime and profanity-laced Easter rant, to the whipsaw on Iran. So, is it simply Occam’s razor, or is there more going on here than we’re led to believe? Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men’s views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it. — President Woodrow Wilson, The New Freedom: A Call for the Emancipation of the Generous Energies of a People (1913) The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger centers has owned the Government ever since the days of Andrew Jackson — and I am not wholly excepting the Administration of W. W. The country is going through a repetition of Jackson’s fight with the Bank of the United States — only on a far bigger and broader basis. — President Franklin D. Roosevelt, letter to Col. Edward Mandell House (21 November 1933); as quoted in F.D.R.: His Personal Letters, 1928-1945, edited by Elliott Roosevelt (New York: Duell, Sloan and Pearce, 1950), pg. 373 I would suggest nothing we’re seeing, including (especially) the seemingly nonsensical, is ‘accidental’ or coincidental. It is PSYOP/PSWAR, a potent toxic mixture of POSIWID and chaos theory designed and intended to rapidly produce maximum chaos resulting in a ‘Clash of Civilizations‘ and The End of History and the Last Man, to ultimately bring about a ‘Novus Ordo Seclorum’1234 a la Genesis 11 → Genesis 6 → culminating in Psalm 2 → Revelation 19.

Here’s What They’re Hiding. Headlines [x] = Mentioned / Discussed Trump: “A Whole Civilization with Die Tonight” If President Trump carries out his threat to kill the entire civilization of Iran, he will join the ranks of Cato the Elder, Genghis Khan, Cortez, and other villains in history who chose the policy of destroying an entire civilization. Needless to say, this is not what Washington, Madison, Adams, Jefferson, and Franklin had in mind when they founded the US Constitutional Republic. Members of the US government—as well as We the People—should think about the reflections of multiple Roman authors who regarded the total annihilation of Carthage as an outrage and repudiation of Rome's republican values and virtues. In the Aeneid, Virgil frames the Punic Wars as a fateful conflict initiated by the Punic Queen Dido’s curse on Aeneas’s descendants. I interpret this as Virgil's way of condemning the “unspeakable” destruction of Carthage. The American people should be aware of the fact that if our US government does indeed annihilate the Iranian nation forever, it will certainly have a vast array of terrible consequences for us and for all of mankind. Among other disasters, it is likely that millions of Iranians will be forced to flee to other lands, including those of Europe. Many young men who see their mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters suffer will be animated with a burning desire for revenge. I anticipate great horrors ahead for all of us.

Last Saturday Samuel Partridge was executed here, for robbing Mr. Barwell of Brockley in this City, of 31l, 10s., a Horse, and other Things, in Company with another Person not yet taken. He said he was born at Debden in Suffolk, that he was about 22 years of Age, and was brought up in Husbandry; he appeared to be very illiterate, for he could neither read nor write, and was entirely ignorant of the first Principles of Christianity. He denied the Fact for which he suffered, and said he was perswaded to own the Robbery by a Soldier that was in Halsted Bridewell with him, he telling him, that if he confessed the Fact he would come off very well; and that he advised him to say, that he had made use of a Bolt instead of a Pistol, and that he had hid it in a certain Place, where it was found according to his Direction. At the Place of Execution he seemed very stupid and unconcern'd; only, as directed, he called on God for Mercy when he was turned off.

Every man is one choice away from stupid. Jim Ramos, bestselling author and host of the #1 Christian men's podcast Men in the Arena, sits down with Jeremy Stalnecker to talk about the guardrails every man needs to protect his marriage, why Gen Z men are filling churches in record numbers, and what it looks like when Christian leaders fall. Jim shares a story about the time the Holy Spirit quoted John Wayne to him in the middle of a counseling session and the lesson that came out of it changed the way he approaches every relationship in his life. He also reveals what's happening on college football fields across the country: 90 athletes praying in the end zone before games, teammates baptizing each other on the 15-yard line, and a generation of young men who are hungry for something real. Jim's new book "Guardrails: 10 Boundaries for an Unbreakable Marriage" releases April 7. https://a.co/d/082Q1M7V The March or Die Show gives you the perspectives and principles you need to march when it would be easier to stay where you are and die.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 69: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump is not qualified to continue as commander in chief. Not for another five minutes. He has to resign at least that role, immediately. Trump is personally LOSING THE WAR IN IRAN. Trump is personally TURNING IRAN into INSTANT PROCESSED VIETNAM. Never mind the politics, never mind his assault on democracy, never mind his instability, never mind his corruption, never mind the details: Just MILITARILY. Just MAKING DECISIONS THAT WILL KILL AMERICAN TROOPS - Trump is NOT qualified to continue as commander in chief and he needs to resign AT LEAST his command TODAY. A week ago Trump mocked England for trying to join the war after he 'won it.' Now Trump is BEGGING England and half a dozen other countries to send ships to save him from this disaster at the Strait of Hormuz. A week ago Trump insisted Iran would NEVER CLOSE the Strait of Hormuz. Now it turns out the Iranians directly WARNED HIM they would close the Strait of Hormuz - warned him in 2019. Because it’s not just a ten dollar gallon of gas that’s coming, it’s a ten dollar STRAWBERRY. Because a third of the world’s fertilizer goes through the Strait of Hormuz, where shipping is down ooh just 97-point-4 percent. Trump is the Commander-in-Creep. Trump is the Commander-in-Cheap. Trump is the Commander-A-Sleep. He needs to turn military command over to somebody else. Because Iran could never in a million years harm this country as much as Trump is harming it right now. THE GOOD NEWS: Dick Durbin has inadvertently produced the succinct message for all Democrats and everybody else opposing Trump and the Republicans' attempt to disembowel our elections, the bill they call with bitter irony 'The Save Act.' As he explains in less than a minute, it will disenfranchise roughly 10 percent of all American voters - and generally speaking the poorer ones. This is the line we must take, and sell. Just when you thought Democratic Senators weren't worth the proverbial price of the oil required to burn them in hell. Thank you, Senator Durbin. B-Block (30:00) SPORTSBALLCENTER: How could a team retire the uniform number of a former player they had to fire as manager because of his personal moral failings ON THE FIELD OF PLAY? And yet the New York Mets are doing exactly that. (35:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Cornelius Rudd warns you of the upcoming 'Raptor.' The CBS tire fire produces hilariously bad stories about David Ellison (and Epstein), Tony Dokoupil (and a new job somewhere else), Joe Rogan, and Jeff Shell (about to get fired from yet another network presidency). And then we have one of the greatest name mistakes of all time when Brian Kilmeade gets Markwayne Mullin's stupid first name completely wrong, Pilgrim. C-Block (46:00) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: I'm making a special request for your help finding a home for two bonded senior Malteses, apparent survivors of a puppy mill, named Mai Tai and Soraya. (49:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: And at the opposite end of the moral spectrum, there's the upcoming 25th anniversary of the day Rupert Murdoch fired me from Fox for following the exact instructions his office gave me.

March 5, 1836, Night is falling. Inside the Alamo, fewer than 200 men wait behind adobe walls. They're surrounded by thousands of enemy forces. What were they thinking? What did it sound like in those final hours? Andrew Minter is one of the most compelling tour guides I've ever met--a man who doesn't just recite history, he walks you into it. Stripping away the Hollywood veneer, we stand in front of of the famous church facade, talk about what visitors--and John Wayne fans--completely misunderstand. From the siege to the final assault on March 6, we follow the story from inside the walls--who Travis, Bowie and Crockett really were, how Santa Anna saw the battle, how nearly every US state was involved, and whether there was ever really any chance for survival. When the smoke finally clears, we see how "Remember the Alamo" became more than a slogan and why the 190-year-old fight still matters today--because history isn't just something that happens. It shapes who we are. Especially the real Alamo.

On My Three Sons, Stanley Livingston grew up, with the boomer generation and with television itself. By the time we came to know Stan as Chip Douglas he had logged over ten credits, performing with Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, Doris Day, Ozzie & Harriet Nelson, Jimmy Stewart, John Wayne, Debbie Reynolds and Gregory Peck!Stan takes us back to his first gig, as a stunt double for Jon Provost on Lassie. Jon couldn't swim yet. Stan got stuck in a muddy pond and turned in a tremendously vivid performance as a kid attempting not to drown.His parents met in Baltimore, where his father ran a burlesque theater and his mom put some vahs in her dance voom. In search of reinvention, they moved to California where Stan and his brother Barry were born and raised. With an ample dose of show biz in his blood, Stan felt at home from the first moment he stepped onto a set.He shares the story of his big break at just six years old on The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet. Stan was working as a neighborhood kid extra when Ozzie threw him a line and he delivered. Stan appeared on ten episodes of the show, until he landed My Three Sons and his brother Barry took over. (Then following him to MTS!)At age 13, Stan was cast in the epic, star-studded adventure, How the West Was Won under the legendary (and notoriously hot-tempered) direction of Henry Hathaway. He recounts Hathaway's explosive on-set tirades (and how Debbie Reynolds was the only cast member bold enough to take him on and yell back!) The experience taught him an invaluable lesson: never take what happens on set personally.Stan speaks warmly of William Frawley, who played Bub on My Three Sons. Stan never knew his grandfathers and Bill did not have kids. They adopted each other and truly cherished their bond, on and off screen.And so, it was difficult for Stan to accept William Demarest who came in as Uncle Charley when William Frawley's faltering health made it impossible to get him insured. But Stan did eventually warm to the new Bill who came with his own set of charms.We hear behind-the-scenes stories from the MTS set, including a memorable location shoot aboard a jet at LAX, and how producers enticed movie star Fred MacMurray to television by structuring a schedule that allowed him to shoot all of his scenes for the season in just a few months.We enjoy a warm, insightful look at growing up in classic television and celebrate the mentors who helped shape one of America's most beloved sitcom families.

People's impression of cowboys is largely due to Hollywood. Actors like John Wayne, Gary Cooper and Clint Eastwood cemented the image of the rugged, handsome, White cowboys throughout their films. While it made for good movies, it's not entirely accurate to how the West looked at the time. There's plenty of history on vaqueros, or Mexican cowboys, in the West, but one demographic left their prints on Arizona history with their stories vastly untold: Black cowboys This week on Valley 101, we answer the question: Were there Black cowboys in Arizona?
