If you've ever wondered what it's really like to live out your Christian convictions inside the medical world, you're going to appreciate this conversation. In this episode, Abby Johnson sits down with Dr. Mike Chupp—surgeon, missionary, and CEO of the Christian Medical & Dental Associations—to talk about faith, integrity, and the pressures facing healthcare professionals today.Dr. Chupp shares candidly about the growing fear of retaliation in medicine, why pro-life voices are being filtered out of academic and professional spaces, and how CMDA is equipping Christian doctors, dentists, students, and global workers to stand strong. He also opens up about his 20-year missionary journey in Kenya, the unexpected ways God redirected his career, and why global missions still matter deeply in a culture that increasingly encourages us to “focus only on home.”This warm, eye-opening discussion shines light on the challenges Christians face in healthcare—and the hope, courage, and community available to those who are called to serve.FOLLOW ABBY ON SOCIAL MEDIA- Instagram- Facebook- Twitter

Focus: Black Oklahoma's Venson Fields turns our attention to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, benefits crisis. Tens of thousands of families across the state are still feeling the ripple effects of the government shutdown—not in abstract political terms, but in their kitchens and on their dinner tables. At the University of Central Oklahoma, student journalists at The Vista have found their independence and integrity under fire, facing administrative pressures that echo the chilling precedents set at places like the University of Missouri, or Mizzou. These moments raise urgent questions about who gets to tell the story, whose voices are heard, and what happens to democracy when student press freedom is stifled. Nico Berlin takes a closer look at the growing wave of attacks on free speech across college campuses—right here at home and across the nation. In May of this year, the Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services revealed a 30 million dollar budget shortfall, which required an emergency appropriation by the state legislature. In September, the legislature announced hundreds of contracts would not be renewed to address the department's budget going forward. FBO's Alana Mbanza explores the human costs of these cuts.According to the World Health Organization, “Everyone, if they live long enough, will experience at least one eye condition in their lifetime that will require appropriate care.” An estimated 2.2 billion people, or a quarter of the world's population, live with visual impairment or blindness. In the town of Kinondo in Kenya, multiple organizations came together to provide vision care during World Blindness Month. Zaakirah Muhammad has details.A year after the opening of Zink Lake in Tulsa, questions continue to surface about the safety and quality of water in the Arkansas River. FBO's Roma Carter spoke with independent journalist Molly Bullock about her coverage of waterway contamination.For generations, African American musicians have turned rhythm into revolution—using their art to challenge racism, economic oppression, and social injustice. From gospel to hip-hop, protest songs to soul anthems, Francia Allen continues her series on music & culture as she traces how music continues to impact both hearts and movements, amplifying the call for freedom, dignity, and a world grounded in love.Finally, we pause to remember. This poem, written by Brooks Lansana, invites us into a space of reflection—of memory and reverence—for those whose names were never spoken, whose stories were buried beneath the ashes of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. Focus: Black Oklahoma is produced in partnership with KOSU Radio & Tri-City Collective.

Welcome back! Today, we are hosting the highly accomplished Dr. Robert Sapolsky, PHD, a professor of professor of biology, neurology, and neurosurgery at Stanford University. He has had extensive research particularly in the field of neuroendocrinology and chronic stress, which has acted as one of the foundations of modern psychoneuroendocrinology. He is also a research associate at the Institute of Primate Research in Kenya, with over 30 years of field research in Africa. He is also a renowned author, with major works including but not at all limited to Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers, Behave: The Biology of Humans at Our Best and Worst, and most recently, Determined: A Science of Life Without Free Will, which challenges us to reconsider free will, morality, and mental health itself through a scientific lens.

The episode almost didn't happen. Our guest fell through, the feed glitched, and then Bruce Bryan hopped on from a car in Midtown and delivered the most human, unflinching conversation we've had about wrongful conviction, prison violence, and what real reform could look like. Bruce grew up in Manhattan and Queens during the crack era, got swept into a homicide case he says he didn't commit, and spent years on Rikers Island before a trial with a traumatized public defender and a prosecutor later tied to misconduct. He survived 29 years inside, studied relentlessly in the law library, mailed more than a thousand legal letters, and ultimately won executive clemency after a law professor built a 499-page case for his humanity and impact.We dig into the mechanics that break people: lost evidence, overloaded defense, Brady violations, and corrections units where force too often goes unseen. Bruce describes everyday violence behind walls and why the absence of body cameras in prisons keeps the worst behavior unaccountable. Then he points to a model that instantly changes the room: Justice Defenders. In Kenya and Uganda, incarcerated people and officers study the law together, write motions, argue appeals, and reduce violence through shared purpose. It's radical because it's simple—teach the law to everyone with skin in the game, and you get outcomes built on dignity and facts.From there, we talk solutions that scale: mental health treatment for the huge share of people inside with disorders, dyslexia and literacy support, community-focused policing that prizes consistency and local trust, and real accountability for deliberate prosecutorial misconduct. Bruce refuses bitterness, even at a parole board that expected false remorse; he chose truth, and still walked out. His line sticks: “Where there's life, there's hope.” That's not a cliché here—it's a strategy. If this conversation moved you, share it with a friend, leave a review, and hit follow.

Join host Justin Forman in Nairobi, Kenya, as he sits down with Jean-Paul Nageri, co-founder of KaFresh, for an extraordinary conversation about finding divine solutions hidden in plain sight. When Jean-Paul watched his father's banana harvest spoil while waiting for traders, he didn't just see a problem—he saw a calling. What followed was a journey of "God Engineering" that led to a breakthrough preserving produce 10x longer using only natural plant oils.This episode explores how entrepreneurs can look to creation itself for answers to massive problems, why cold storage isn't always the answer for Africa, and how one biotech solution is transforming food security for millions. From Genesis 1:29 inspiration to cutting-edge agricultural innovation, this conversation reveals how faith, science, and entrepreneurship combine to solve real-world challenges.Key Topics:How watching his father lose 50% of harvests to spoilage launched an entrepreneurial journeyThe "God Engineering" discovery: unlocking preservation secrets from orange peelsWhy expensive Western solutions (cold storage) don't work for African farmersKaFresh breakthrough: Extending tomato shelf life from 1 week to 3+ months at room temperatureThe $1 trillion problem: Sub-Saharan Africa loses 37% of food production to post-harvest spoilageFrom synthetic chemicals to natural plant oils: reversing the globalization of food preservationHow monks in 1800s monasteries pioneered natural food coating techniquesBuilding an agricultural biotech platform: From preservation to accelerated seed germinationMaking insects "invisible" to produce instead of killing them with pesticidesUganda's 2 million smallholder farmers and the mindset shift that changes everythingNotable Quotes:"I like to use the term God Engineering.

He normally takes the underdogs." - Jean-Paul Nageri"Anything that is good for you should be easy to pronounce." - Jean-Paul Nageri

The BanterThe Guys discuss cultural differences in the best way to leave a party. Expeditious or rude?The ConversationThe Restaurant Guys speak to Procera Gin founders Alan Murungi and Guy Brennan from Kenya. Alan and Guy had a vision to create gin from fresh (not dried) juniper berries that are hand foraged at great heights in the juniper forests of Kenya. They distill locally and use hand-crafted glass bottles for their exceptional libation which is a favorite of Mark and FrancisThe Inside TrackThe Guys heard about Procera gin and wanted to hate it, but it was too tremendous! They got acquainted with Alan & Guy and fully appreciated their motives.“Alan and I were in the backyard drinking a Bombay sapphire gin and tonic, and Alan looked at the bottle and said, 'This is absolute bullshit. Why do we make gin in England with African botanicals that they send to us and we drink every weekend in Kenya? Let's make a gin company.' It was a sort of an FU to people using African stuff and selling it to us,” Guy Brennan on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2025Bio Procera was founded with a vision to share the best of Africa with the world. Distilled in Nairobi, Kenya, their gins are the first to showcase African Juniper. The berries are handpicked from wild forests growing at altitudes above 2,000 metres, across many distinct regions of Kenya. The fresh juniper and other regionally-grown botanicals create a distinctive gin that is among the first distilled in Africa. InfoProcera Ginhttps://www.proceragin.com/Join legendary Dale DeGroff at our Procera Gin Party on Friday, Nov 21 in New Brunswick, NJhttps://www.stageleft.com/event/112125-nj-introduces-procera-gin-w-dale-degroff/Restaurant Guys' Regulars get a discount so sign up today!https://www.buzzsprout.com/2401692/subscribe Become a Restaurant Guys' Regular!https://www.buzzsprout.com/2401692/subscribeMagyar Bankhttps://www.magbank.com/Withum Accounting https://www.withum.com/restaurantOur Places Stage Left Steakhttps://www.stageleft.com/ Catherine Lombardi Restauranthttps://www.catherinelombardi.com/ Stage Left Wineshophttps://www.stageleftwineshop.com/ To hear more about food, wine and the finer things in life:https://www.instagram.com/restaurantguyspodcast/https://www.facebook.com/restaurantguysReach Out to The Guys!TheGuys@restaurantguyspodcast.com**Become a Restaurant Guys Regular and get two bonus episodes per month, bonus content and Regulars Only events.**Click Below!https://www.buzzsprout.com/2401692/subscribe

Living Your Calling | Mission Sunday | His Word, His Plan, His People We take a deeper look at what it means to live your calling based on Acts 11. Hear from our mission partners in Kenya and Guatemala, explore the heartbeat behind global missions, and be encouraged to step into what God is already doing. Living your calling starts with small steps—and it starts now. 4 Key Insights: • Living your calling starts with obedience, not certainty, so take the step in front of you. • God uses ordinary people in unexpected places to do extraordinary things for His kingdom. • Your workplace, neighborhood, or school may be your Antioch and your unique place of influence. • The gospel spreads most through intentional relationships and community support, not just programs. • Generosity and service are natural results of living a life surrendered to Christ.

La COP30 à Belém, au Brésil, entre dans sa deuxième semaine ce 17 novembre. Parmi les sujets abordés de ce grand sommet mondial sur le climat, il y a celui de la sécurité alimentaire. En Afrique, elle est menacée notamment par la croissance des villes. Selon Africapolis, le continent connaît un des taux d'urbanisation les plus rapides au monde. D'ici à 2050, les villes africaines accueilleront 950 millions d'habitants supplémentaires. Alors, comment nourrir ces populations urbaines ? À Nairobi, au Kenya, dans le bidonville de Kawangware, on fait le pari de l'agriculture urbaine.  Reportage de notre correspondant au Kenya,  Jane Changawa habite un petit immeuble délabré de Kawangware. C'est sur le toit qu'elle a lancé, il y a trois ans, ce qu'elle appelle « sa ferme » : 50m² de plantations. « Là, on a des haricots verts, des tomates, des patates douces. On a aussi des épinards et du chou kale. Ma ferme est 100% bio. J'ai mes petits tuyaux. Vous voyez, par exemple, les oignons nouveaux sont plantés au milieu du chou kale. Quand ils sentent les oignons, les insectes s'enfuient. L'urine de lapin est aussi très efficace contre les insectes. Et si je mélange une tasse d'urine et cinq d'eau, ça me fait aussi de l'engrais », raconte Jane Changawa. Jane et sa famille consomment la plupart de sa production. Le reste, elle le vend pour environ 6 000 shillings par mois, soit une quarantaine d'euros. C'est la moitié du salaire minimum légal au Kenya. Lilian Nyariki, elle, vend des légumes dans la rue. Et c'est chez Jane qu'elle s'approvisionne. « C'est beaucoup plus intéressant pour moi que d'aller au marché de gros » « Ici, j'achète en général du chou kale, des épinards et des oignons. C'est beaucoup plus intéressant pour moi que d'aller au marché de gros. Quand je vais au marché, je dois prendre un bus. C'est assez loin. Ça me coûte 200 shillings (environ 1,30 euro, NDLR). Alors qu'ici, je n'en ai pas besoin. Jane vend aussi moins cher. Sept choux kales me coûtent 20 shillings (0,13 euro, NDLR), contre 500 à 1 000 shillings (3,30 à 6,60 euros, NDLR) au marché de gros. Avec Jane, je fais de bons profits », explique Lilian Nyariki C'est l'Association kényane pour les femmes en agriculture (Awak) qui a formé Jane. Ce jour-là, dans une petite église de Kawangware, Julius Mundia, membre de l'organisation, enseigne à une quarantaine de femmes. L'idée du projet lui est venue pendant la pandémie de Covid-19, alors que le confinement a provoqué une grave pénurie de nourriture dans la capitale. « Il est tout à fait possible de produire de la nourriture à Nairobi, dans des endroits exigus. C'est comme ça qu'on a inventé les jardins verticaux. On utilise n'importe quel contenant disponible : des sacs, des vieux vêtements, n'importe quoi dans lequel on peut mettre du terreau. Après, on plante des graines. Un sac peut parfois contenir une centaine de graines. On peut utiliser les toits des immeubles. Avec un simple balcon, on peut faire quelques jardins. Et pour l'eau, on utilise les eaux usées de la cuisine », explique Julius Mundia. Awak a déjà formé plus de 15 000 femmes.  À lire aussiComment promouvoir l'agriculture urbaine pour nourrir les villes africaines ?

Kate Adie introduces stories from Syria, the Philippines, Tanzania and Brazil.During his visit to Washington this week, Syria's interim president Ahmed Al Sharaa announced that Syria will join the coalition of 90 countries trying to eliminate the remnants of the Islamic State group. The threat of IS is increasing on Syrian soil, where 8,000 suspected IS fighters remain in jails, and 34,000 of their family members are held in camps. Orla Guerin reports on the new generation growing up in the camps.Last week the Philippines was hit by Typhoon Fung-wong - the twenty first big tropical storm to hit the country this year. Jonathan Head reflects on how the country copes with its vulnerability to natural disasters - and the growing anger over misappropriation of millions of dollars designated for improving flood defences.Tanzania recently experienced its worst post-election violence in decades. The newly elected president, Samia Suluhu Hassan, was inaugurated after the country's electoral commission declared she had won 98 per cent of the vote. In her speech she insisted the election was free and fair - though critics accuse the government of eliminating any credible political competition. Victor Kenani has been following the story on Tanzania's border with Kenya.Global leaders met this week in the Brazilian city of Belem for the latest COP climate summit, though it was off to a rocky start when it was not entirely clear what new - and renewed - pledges would be up for discussion. Watching on was our Climate Editor Justin Rowlatt.Producer: Serena Tarling Production coordinators: Katie Morrison and Sophie Hill Editor: Richard Fenton-Smith

In Lonely Crowds (Little, Brown and Co., 2025) Ruth, an only child of recent immigrants to New England, lives in an emotionally cold home and attends the local Catholic girl's school on a scholarship. Maria, a beautiful orphan whose Panamanian mother dies by suicide and is taken care of by an ill, unloving aunt, is one of the only other students attending the school on a scholarship. Ruth is drawn forcefully into Maria's orbit, and they fall into an easy, yet intense, friendship. Her devotion to her charming and bright new friend opens up her previously sheltered world. While Maria, charismatic and aware of her ability to influence others, eases into her full self, embracing her sexuality and her desire to be an artist, Ruth is mostly content to follow her around: to college and then into the early-nineties art world of New York City. There, ambition and competition threaten to rupture their friendship, while strong and unspoken forces pull them together over the years. Whereas Maria finds early success in New York City as an artist, Ruth stumbles along the fringes of the art world, pulled toward a quieter life of work and marriage. As their lives converge and diverge, they meet in one final and fateful confrontation. Ruth and Maria's decades-long friendship interrogates the nature of intimacy, desire, class and time. What does it mean to be an artist and to be true to oneself? What does it mean to give up on an obsession? Marking the arrival of a sensational new literary talent, Lonely Crowds challenges us to reckon honestly with our own ambitions and the lives we hope to lead.

Have a comment? Send us a text! (We read all of them but can't reply). Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comWhat does it really mean to say Christianity is “rooted in Judaism”? In this conversation, Dr. Gavin D'Costa—Emeritus Professor of Catholic Theology at the University of Bristol and visiting professor at Rome's Angelicum—unpacks the argument of his new book From Sinai to Rome: Jewish Identity in the Catholic Church. We explore how early Christian faith grew from Jewish soil, where continuity ends and discontinuity begins, and why terms like “Judeo-Christian” both clarify and confuse. We also dive into Hebrew Catholicism, Messianic movements, Passover and the Eucharist, interfaith empathy, immigration anxieties, and what a Christ-honoring “rubric” looks like when discerning which practices to carry forward.Dr. D'Costa challenges modern Christians to rediscover the richness of their Jewish roots without collapsing distinctions or erasing theological difference. He argues that recovering this lineage isn't simply an academic exercise—it's a spiritual one that can help the Church understand itself, its liturgy, and its moral imagination in a fragmented age. For listeners wrestling with how faith and identity intersect in pluralistic societies, this conversation offers both historical grounding and a compelling call toward deeper empathy and continuity within the Christian story.Buy the book From Sinai to Rome: Jewish Identity in the Catholic Church https://ignatius.com/from-sinai-to-rome-fstrp/Guest bio:Born in Kenya to Indian parents, Gavin D'Costa has shaped contemporary conversations on how Christians theologically relate to Jews and Muslims. He is Emeritus Professor of Catholic Theology at the University of Bristol and serves as a visiting professor at the Angelicum in Rome. His books include Vatican II: Catholic Doctrines on Jews and Muslims (OUP, 2014), Catholic Doctrines on the Jewish People after Vatican II (OUP, 2019), and (as co-editor) From Sinai to Rome: Jewish Identity in the Catholic Church (Ignatius Press, 2025).Support the show

Have you ever wondered how a hotel could bring people together and transform a city? In this episode, I talk with Shamim Ehsani, co-founder of Nairobi's Tribe Hotel, whose vision of “one planet, one tribe” turned hospitality into a living message of unity. Growing up in Kenya, Shamim learned that respect and connection cross every boundary—and he's built that belief into everything his team does. We explore how Tribe became a symbol of dignity and authentic service, how art and culture shaped its identity, and why true hospitality starts with valuing people as they are. Shamim's story reminds us that purpose-driven leadership can turn even a simple idea into something truly unstoppable. Highlights: 00:58 — Learn how early experiences in Nairobi shaped a lifelong passion for curiosity, courage, and connection. 02:35 — Discover what makes Nairobi one of the world's most extraordinary cities and why its character inspires unity. 06:55 — Hear how understanding your environment can shape how you design meaningful experiences. 08:06 — Explore how real-world learning can teach the mindset every entrepreneur needs to succeed. 12:56 — Find out why action, not perfection, builds confidence when you're starting something new. 15:27 — See how vision and perseverance can transform even small beginnings into lasting success. 21:12 — Learn the importance of staying bold when the world around you feels uncertain. 26:44 — Discover how one phrase became the foundation for a purpose-driven movement in hospitality. 33:44 — Understand why true hospitality begins with dignity and self-respect—for both guests and teams. 36:45 — Hear how empowering people to be authentic creates connection and loyalty that can't be scripted. 44:17 — Learn how investing in people builds confidence, culture, and trust across every interaction. 52:42 — See how storytelling and creativity turn ordinary moments into unforgettable experiences. About the Guest: Shamim Ehsani is Co-Founder, Director and Developer of Tribe Hotel, a family-owned and operated, 5-star luxury hotel in Nairobi, Kenya, that channels African authenticity and excellence. Shamim co-founded the hotel, located in the city's prestigious diplomatic district, and serves as its Creative Director, developing new concepts relating to F&B and service. He is also the hotel's Marketing Director, overseeing all branding and marketing efforts across the companies and outlets, including developing all of the brands. Shamim also plays a key role in a constellation of family enterprises that are centered on real estate development. A prolific and successful entrepreneur, he is also Co-Founder, Director and Developer of Trademark Hotel, Tribe Hotel's 4-star sister property; Director and Co-Founder of VMX Fitness, Nairobi's top fitness facility; Principal and Creative Director of Beeline, a luxury brand marketing agency; Director of Guardian Holdings, a holding/investment company; and Marketing Director of Village Market, East Africa's largest lifestyle and recreation complex. Shamim co-founded Tribe Hotel with his brother Hooman in 2008 to fulfill a need for a 5-star luxury hotel in Nairobi's upscale diplomatic district. The brothers listed the 20 things they did not like about hotels and set about to create their own that addressed them. The result is a higher standard in global hospitality, with the hotel distinguished as one of the most iconic properties in Africa. The hotel's guests include royalty, heads of state and countless celebrities. The property boasts 128 rooms, a 10,000-sq.-ft. spa and a heliport. Tribe Hotel broke away from the colonial style hotels that existed in the market and presents a space that supports the arts and is a better reflection of the wealth and dignity of Africa and the Kenyan people. They transformed the attitude of service from a subservient approach to one that is more egalitarian and congenial, with guests being “hosted” rather than “served.” The hotel boasts 900 African artworks and artifacts curated by Shamim's mother, Faranak, supports local Nairobi artisans and purveyors, while its acclaimed Jiko restaurant has elevated African cuisine to new heights.

They’ll be at 49 spots around the county, raising money to help folks in need. The goal this year? $150,000 by Christmas Eve. And it’s not just about the holidays.

Kerry Dyer reminded everyone of that during Gwinnett County’s ceremony this week. “It’s a day for gratitude,” he said, standing before a crowd of veterans spanning generations, from Korea to the Gulf. “Not just for battles fought, but for lives lived in service.” Gwinnett, home to over 30,000 veterans, pulled out all the stops—marches, music, and heartfelt speeches.
