In this episdoe of Theologcailyl Fashioned, we're joined by Dr. Josh Morgan to explore how spiritual disciplines help us grow closer to God - not as a checklist of tasks, but as intentional practices that shape and position our hearts for transformation. Together, we unpack the beauty and purpose behind disciplines like prayer, Scripture, and silence and how they fashion us into people who are continurally being renewed by Christ. This conversation is an invitation to deeper formation and a reminder that spiritual growth is less about striving and more about surrender.

So, how practical is it for Ontario's cities and towns to replace U.S. goods? A closer look at the opportunities to support Canadian businesses, and the risks of restricting U.S. suppliers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Interview by Kris PetersSometimes playing nice doesn't get the desired results, especially in music.To really get to know yourself, your bandmates, and your audience, stepping into a studio and cutting some tracks with more polish than Mr. Sheen is often a band aid fix to a bandage problem. Any inconsistencies and/or inadequacies can be ironed out with creative technology and by the time you make it to the stage in a live environment, you are not only suffering from an inflated ego, but, more importantly, the sudden knowledge that without studio gadgets you're actually not very good.Newcastle noise merchants FIST decided to do the opposite, knocking out hard yards on the touring circuit and playing more than 70 shows in front of new faces before offering up their first studio single KA-BOOM (MTHRFCKR). And if this one song is anything to go by, their bold move has paid off.KA-BOOM (MTHRFCKR) is being premiered via HEAVY at 5pm AEDT on Wednesday, January 15 before being officially released through other channels two days later. The song hits with the subtlety of Thor's hammer and is a welcome breath of savage air that hopefully will continue long into the coming year.Pretty much everything FIST has done so far is the opposite to what you would read in the modern age "How To Make It In Music" guide. But also, pretty much everything FIST has done so far has proved you don't need to follow rules. There are no rules in music. Isn't that part of the magic of the industry?HEAVY spoke with FIST pumper Josh Morgan to find out more and start by thanking the band for a late sonic Christmas present."It's a very late Christmas present," he countered. "It should have been out a year before, but we're finally getting into it. We did a live album so we could try and get as much out of those songs as we can before we have to actually pay all the money to record them (laughs)."In the full interview we talk about the band's different approach to establishing a fan base, if it worked, the benefits of road testing songs for a prolonged period before committing them to file, why they chose KA-BOOM (MTHRFCKR) as the first song to record, what to expect musically, upcoming shows, censoring your own music to an extent so as not to offend people and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Who doesn't love good, healthy food? Better still, who doesn't love the option to have it delivered while also knowing that the restaurant (not Big Tech!) is getting their fare share of the profits. Today's episode of HALO Talks is made livelier and healthier by Josh Morgan, the founder of Sesame Order, a new marketplace created by a restaurant veteran squarely with other restaurant professionals in mind. Currently in approximately 250 restaurants in the NYC area, Sesame is still in beta and testing carefully, but by all signs, reception from both the restaurants and the consumers has been very positive. "Sesame came about in a post-COVID world. We started to think about how fundamentally challenging being in the restaurant business is. And even when times are good, it's hard--but in the face of things like COVID we came to the realization that we needed to make some changes. Sesame was a response to the challenges that we've had as restaurant operators fighting against the aggregators in Silicon valley and big tech monopolizing our off-premise business," states Morgan. With honesty and transparency baked into their core values, Josh and his team plan on disrupting the status quo of the food industry for the sake of all stakeholders and to promote the betterment of the industry. Not an easy task to be sure, but they're well on their way. We're big fans of what Sesame is trying to do. It's certainly a company to keep an eye on, and we encourage you to check them out if you're in the NYC area. Check us out here for more episodes you might have missed.
