On today's show, Sean and Amanda cover one of their most anticipated movies of the year: Steven Spielberg's alien thriller ‘Disclosure Day,' starring Josh O'Connor and Emily Blunt. Before diving in, Sean revels in the glory of an all-time New York Knicks victory that extended their NBA Finals lead over the San Antonio Spurs to 3-1 (0:43). Then, they hit myriad movie news headlines and, most importantly, react to the first trailer for Aaron Sorkin's ‘The Social Reckoning' (12:47). Next, they have a wide-ranging conversation about ‘Disclosure Day,' which they found to be an incredibly fascinating movie, not without flaws, and an amazing platform for Emily Blunt, who delivers the best performance of her career (38:05). Finally, they go into full spoilers and break down specific plot points, character motivations, and the final shot of the film (1:05:29).

Hello to you listening in Bridgeport, Connecticut! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories from Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. On my Camino pilgrimage I received a small paper star  from someone I did not know to carry with me as a blessing, to remember that someone was watching over me as I walked. In turn, I'm sharing some blessings with you as you walk in your day: BLESSING FOR YOU May you eat an unfamiliar dessert in a foreign land at least once in your life. May you wake up to salsa music one summer morning, and start your day dancing. May you mix stripes with plaids, floral patterns with checks,  mismatch your socks, and add a floppy hat. May you be greeted by 20 flowers, 15 trees, 10 clouds and at least 1 extra-solar planet. If you bury your face in your tear-stained pillow and beg the Universe to please send you your soul mate, make sure you haven't slurred your teary words so they sound like "cell mate." May you dream of taking a trip to the moon in a gondola powered by firecrackers and wild swans. May you actually kneel and kiss the earth now and again.

Growing Apostolic Ministry In A Spiritual Desert! ... Enlgish & Spanish

A spiritual desert doesn't mean ministry stops; it means we discover what really carries us. We sat down with Pastor Cody Mayo to unpack a striking image that reframes leadership for a noisy, skeptical age: camels. Camels aren't pretty, but they are built for sandstorms. In the same way, prayer, fasting, Scripture, and Spirit-led love look ordinary from a distance, yet they are the load-bearing practices that move people through harsh seasons and toward hope.We trace the theme across Scripture. Paul learned at the feet of Gamaliel—“the camel of God”—a reminder that mentorship and formation matter when the road gets rough. Joseph's lowest moment meets a caravan bearing the balm of Gilead, revealing ministry as healing on the move. Then Rebekah steps to the well, eyes open to the cost, and makes trip after trip to water ten camels. That steady service becomes her road to destiny; the very burdens she lifted end up carrying her to her bridegroom. Along the way, we explore a core warning from Leviticus: never consume what carries you. Don't cut the disciplines that sustain your calling just because the desert feels long.If you've wondered how to lead faithfully amid social media noise, post-pandemic fatigue, and cultural fragmentation, this conversation offers a clear path: tend to the carriers first. Kneel the camels at the well before you reach for the meal. Measure a church not by platform shine but by the ministry it sustains day after day. You were made for this moment, equipped to breathe in the storm and keep moving with healing in hand.If this resonated, share it with a friend, subscribe for more conversations like this, and leave a review with one takeaway you're carrying into the week.We love to hear from our listeners!

Title: A New Way to WalkScripture Reading: Matthew 14:22-33Series: Be Bold!What does it look like to step out of the boat and walk with boldness when the storms of life begin to rise? In this message, we examine Peter's encounter with Jesus on the Sea of Galilee to discover a 'W.A.L.K.' acronym for being bold. We begin by recognizing that Jesus's bold WALK enables our bold walk. To follow Him, we must ABANDON fear for faith. We find stability only when we LOCK eyes with Jesus, refusing to let the wind and waves of our circumstances distract us from His presence. Finally, true boldness leads us to KNEEL in worship, acknowledging Jesus's sovereignty over all creation and His unique power to save us when we cry out. Commit to locking your eyes on Jesus today and call out to Him for help, trusting that He is already walking through the storm with you.

This week, co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman examine the crumbling facade of the Trump administration as their one page peace proposal is sent back by Iran. With the Middle East slipping further out of control, Donald Trump is heading to China to prostrate himself before Xi Jinping. But he is not going alone. He is bringing the actual bosses of the United States Elon Musk and Tim Cook, to help beg for an exit strategy (but really to enrich themselves). They also breakdown: The Economic Indicator Trap: Why your Trader Joes bill is a ticking time bomb and what $7 diesel in Indiana tells us about the shipping corridors of the future. The Marco-mentum Mirage: The corporate medias attempt to launder Secretary of State Marco Rubio into the future of the Republican Party despite his history of failure.

We open the show on Oz Pearlman — the mentalist who's been showing up on every podcast and somehow keeps reading minds for a living. Adam just caught him on Modern Wisdom, where Pearlman walked the host through his exact internal thought process — what he picked, what he second-guessed, what he settled on — like he had a pipeline straight into the man's head. Adam now rearranges his schedule whenever Oz pops up on a screen. So consider this a formal invitation: Oz, come drink whiskey with us. Tell us our favorite bourbon. We'll pour the Glencairns.Speaking of — this week we're sipping High West Campfire. A blend of straight rye, straight bourbon, and blended malt scotch. Yes, scotch. Peat smoke gives way to orange zest, English toffee, toasted brioche, salted caramel, leather, dark chocolate. It works.Then Adam gives an update on baby Mary. New listeners — Adam's daughter was born very early with a heart condition and a long list of complications. She's been in the NICU since birth. This past weekend was her actual due date, and after a long string of holding-the-line W's, she's turned a meaningful corner. Off the paralytic. Better oxygen, blood pressure, heart rate. Swelling coming down. Still a long road — likely nine to twelve more months in the NICU. Adam and Lady Haylee are deeply grateful. Keep them in your prayers. Both of them.Quick note from Dave: Good Shepherd Sunday in Tulsa. The pastor handed out cards and asked every man in the pews to write down the name of a young man who'd make a good priest. A thousand men doing that work together. Tulsa's per-capita priest count is already top five in the country — and we still need more.Then we get into it. The King in the Tabernacle.If the Eucharist is just a symbol, the Catholic Church is a 2,000-year deception. Flannery O'Connor's line — to hell with it — is the right one. But we don't believe it's a symbol. We believe what Christ said. Body, blood, soul, and divinity. The continuation of the Incarnation, until the end of the age.David's been reading The Real Presence by St. Peter Julian Eymard (Cor Jesu Press). Eymard is the patron of Eucharistic adoration — one homily in him, gave it for a lifetime. And one chapter lays out a battle plan for how to actually spend a holy hour. Not just sit there. Spend it.The four ends of worship — ACTS: Adoration, Contrition, Thanksgiving, Supplication. Eymard breaks the hour into four fifteen-minute sections. First fifteen: adoration. You don't walk into the royal court making demands. You fall on your knees and salute the King. Second fifteen: thanksgiving — for yourself, your family, the world. Thank Him for instituting the Eucharist at all. (Most of us forget that one.) Third fifteen: reparation. Stand in the gap. For your sins, for the world's, especially for the sacrileges against the Eucharist itself. Fourth fifteen: petition. Now you can ask. Ask large graces. Ask for the triumph of His Church. By the time you get there, you're asking for the right things.We talk about the difference between knowing the Eucharist is Christ and acting like it. You don't accidentally get a six-pack at 40. You don't accidentally get holy, either. We're body-soul composites — what we do with our bodies forms our souls. That's why we genuflect. Dress for Mass. Kneel after Communion. St. Charbel had two modes: preparing to receive, or thanking God for having received. The bar he set is the right one.We close with Eymard's image of the guard of honor. Jesus has made Himself vulnerable in the host. Heart pierced. Defenseless. Waiting on His men to show up and adore Him. That's the work. Guard duty. Get to adoration. Change your life.Raise your glass.TOPICS COVEREDOz Pearlman the mentalist — and Adam's open invitation to come on the showBaby Mary's update: off the paralytic, turning a corner after months in the NICUWhy prayer for Lady Haylee matters as much as prayer for MaryGood Shepherd Sunday in Tulsa — a thousand men writing down names of future priestsWhy the Eucharist is the reason to be Catholic — and why "to hell with it" is the right answer if it's a symbolSt. Peter Julian Eymard, the patron of Eucharistic adoration, and his book The Real PresenceWhy the real presence is the continuation of the IncarnationThe actual battle plan for a holy hour: ACTS in fifteen-minute sectionsWhy thanksgiving in adoration is the most perfect act of loveReparation — standing in the gap for sacrileges against the EucharistWhy your petitions get sharper after you've adored, thanked, and made reparationKnowing the Eucharist is Christ vs. actually acting like itWhy you're not going to accidentally get holy any more than you're going to accidentally get a six-pack at 40Body-soul composites: how genuflection, posture, and dress shape the interior lifeSt. Charbel's two modes — preparing to receive Communion, or thanking God for having receivedLady Pamela stopping at every chapel she passed — and why that 60 seconds was worth more than Adam realizedDon't let the perfect be the enemy of the excellentThe guard of honor: Jesus exposing Himself in the host, depending on His men to defend and adore HimBourbon of the week: High West Campfire — the rare rye/bourbon/scotch blendREFERENCED IN THIS EPISODEBooks:The Real Presence by St. Peter Julian Eymard (Cor Jesu Press)Saints:St. Peter Julian EymardSt. CharbelMother Angelica (and her new shoes at adoration)People & previous guests:Joey Spencer — on Christ becoming the fruit hanging on a treeJeff Cavins — on talking to Jesus like He's actually thereFlannery O'Connor / Dorothy Day — "If it's a symbol, to hell with it"Oz Pearlman (mentalist, Modern Wisdom podcast)Lady Haylee MinihanLady Pamela NilesConcepts & references:The four ends of worship: Adoration, Contrition, Thanksgiving, Supplication (ACTS)The National Eucharistic CongressGood Shepherd SundayEucharistic adorationThe continuation of the IncarnationSubstance and accidents (Aristotelian-Thomistic metaphysics of the Eucharist)SPONSOR BLOCKSponsor: Select International Tours — selectinternationaltours.comWhen Adam and Dave decided to lead their first pilgrimage, the same name kept coming up: Select International Tours.

This Week at Genesis | I Kneel… I Pray… I Pray From Paul's prayer in Ephesians 3, we're invited into a posture and a practice—kneeling before the Father and praying for something deeper than surface change. This message explores what it means to be strengthened by the Spirit in our inner being, to live rooted in the love of Christ, and to experience a power that is formed in God's presence and in community. We also reflect on how practices like fasting help clear what clutters our souls, realign us with God's purposes, and make room for fresh movement in our lives.   Scripture & Themes

"Leave everything undefined, including yourself. Befriend uncertainty. Fall in love with mystery. Kneel at the altar of Not Knowing. Give your questions time to breathe. And the answers will find you." Jeff Foster Befriending Uncertainty: Learning to Live in the "Not Yet" Living Compass Spirituality and Wellness Podcast About This Episode This episode is a follow-up to last week's reflection on the Quaker wisdom phrase "Way Will Open." If we're going to trust that way will open, what do we do in the meantime? How do we learn not just to live with uncertainty, but to actually befriend it? Scott explores this question through the lens of both Christian and Buddhist wisdom, and through the surprising insight that befriending uncertainty works much the same way as being a good, patient friend. In This Episode The Jeff Foster quote that anchors this reflection: "Leave everything undefined, including yourself. Befriend uncertainty. Fall in love with mystery. Kneel at the altar of not knowing. Give your questions time to breathe. And the answers will find you." The Christian tradition of actively waiting on the Spirit — not passive, but attentive and expectant How the way we hold space for an anxious friend is the same posture we need with our own uncertainty The Buddhist practice of beginner's mind — approaching even familiar situations as if for the first time Scott's experience as a therapist: "I've never heard this story before" The compass as a tool for reorientation — not a guarantee, but a way back to true north A Practice to Carry With You This week, try approaching one conversation, one relationship, or one unresolved situation with beginner's mind. Set aside what you think you already know, and simply listen — to the other person, or to your own heart — as if you're hearing it for the first time. We don't so much find the answers as we make space for the answers to find us. Resources

Cate Blanchett Month takes a cosmic, neon-drenched turn this week on We Drink & We Watch Things as we dive into the Marvel Cinematic Universe to witness Cate Blanchett at her most delightfully wicked: Taika Waititi's 2017 technicolor blast, Thor: Ragnarok. It's time to pour yourself a drink that's as bold and dangerous as our guest of honor - Lemar's Hella Fire, perhaps - as we head to Asgard to meet the sister Thor and Loki never knew they had.This week, we celebrate Cate's turn as Hela, the Goddess of Death, and how she managed to create one of the most charismatic and genuinely threatening villains in the entire MCU. We examine her incredible physical presence - from the effortless way she catches Mjolnir to the iconic antlered headgear - and talk through how much fun she clearly had playing a character who is unapologetically powerful and bored by everyone else's rules. We also highlight the film's shift toward improvisational comedy, the vibrant "Jack Kirby" visual style, and why Hela stands out as a masterclass in how to bring gravitas and theatrical flair to a superhero blockbuster. And why we want more of her!If you love a villain who steals every scene they're in, or if you just want to hear us gush about Cate's ability to command an entire army with just a flick of her wrist, this is the episode for you. We're blending our adoration for her range with our usual casual banter, making this a high-voltage highlight of our actress Month journey.

Now blue states will impose this tyranny on us in red states when they take over at the federal level, but thanks to Trump's bad endorsements, we will not have the infrastructure to fight Democrat tyranny the way blue states are successfully thwarting Trump. I also show how Trump is championing federal supremacy on all the wrong issues like gun control, AI, and land use, but not on immigration.    Learn more about your ad choices.

Evan and Tiki open the phones on the Giants coaching search, but the conversation quickly pivots to the most entertaining game of Wild Card Weekend: Bills vs Jaguars. After Josh Allen's ridiculous late push, the classic barstool argument erupts at the goal line. Do you take a knee at the 1 and bleed clock, or punch in the touchdown and trust your defense? Evan says it's simple: if you need a touchdown, you take the touchdown, because nothing is guaranteed in the red zone. The crew debates the value of those 30 extra seconds, the risk of giving away a down, and why Buffalo's past “13 seconds” trauma still hangs over every late game decision. Then the calls roll in, including a furious breakdown of a chaotic end of half sequence that nearly handed Jacksonville points and could have changed the entire game if the kick was made. And to top it off, Evan unloads on Tony Romo's bizarre broadcast, from head scratching commentary to a moment where Romo somehow convinced himself a clear Josh Allen touchdown might not count.

The world says Christmas is over. The Church says it has just begun.In this homily from Fr. Dom, we step into the Octave of Christmas and confront what this season actually demands of men. This is not a victory lap. This is formation. The Church keeps Christmas alive because families are under attack, fathers are distracted, and men are being pulled away from the center where God must reign.This episode places you back in front of the manger and refuses to let you look away. The Nativity is not decoration. It is a revelation. God in the flesh lies at the center of the Holy Family, and everything else takes its proper place around Him. That order matters. When God is not in the center, families fracture. When He is, grace flows.We reflect on the shepherds who dropped everything and ran to Bethlehem in haste. No hesitation. No excuses. Simple men with simple faith who abandoned worldly concerns to worship God. Their childlike faith stands in direct opposition to the pride, arrogance, and self-sufficiency that blinds so many men today.This episode also confronts hard realities. The massacre of the Holy Innocents exposes the hatred of evil for life itself. Satan targets children and families because that is where the future is formed. That is why the Church places the Holy Family front and center during the Octave of Christmas. This is spiritual warfare, and the family is the frontline.You will hear again the powerful story of a blind woman who truly saw Christ in the manger. Her faith exposes a painful truth: many who claim sight are blind, while those who trust see clearly. The manger reveals Christ born to die, the wood of the crib pointing directly to the wood of the Cross, and ultimately to the Eucharist, where Christ feeds His people.This episode challenges men directly. Fathers are called to be righteous like Saint Joseph. Husbands are called to love sacrificially. Families are called to pray together daily. No exceptions. No excuses. The domestic church rises or falls on whether men will lead with humility, obedience, and faith.The Holy Family is not meant to discourage you. It is meant to call you higher.Push play. Kneel before the manger. Then go build a family where God reigns at the center.3 Powerful Quotes from the Episode“These little hands and feet will be pierced for our transgressions.”“They dropped everything and went in haste. That is a good example for us.”“Satan wants to destroy the family. That is his number one target.”Key Takeaway for MenPut God back at the center of your home today. Pray with your wife. Pray with your children. Lead your domestic church with simple, obedient faith. If a family does not pray together, it will not stand.

Christmas is not soft. It is not sentimental. It is a declaration of war.In this homily from Fr. Dom, he confronts the manger and exposes what most men have been taught to ignore. The Incarnation is not a cozy scene meant for nostalgia. It is God entering enemy territory. It is Christ coming to do battle for your soul.Too many men walk past the manger without stopping. We have seen it too many times. We have grown numb. But the Church places the manger front and center for a reason. If you truly see it, it should cut you to the heart and force a response.In this episode, Fr. Dom shares a true story from his first Christmas as a priest. A blind woman approaches the manger, searching not with her eyes, but with her hands. When she finds the Infant Jesus, she understands what many men miss entirely: those tiny hands and feet were born to be pierced. Born for sacrifice. Born for war.That moment exposes a hard truth. Faith is not passive. Seeing Christ demands action.We walk straight from the wood of the manger to the wood of the Cross, and then to the altar. The same Christ who lay in the hay now gives you His Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity in the Eucharist. That reality changes everything, or it should.This episode forces a question that every Catholic man must answer honestly:Has Christmas actually changed you?If the Incarnation does not move you to conversion, you are missing the point. If the manger does not stir you to fight sin, lead your family, and reject the lies of the world, then you are standing still while darkness advances.Jesus did not come to make you comfortable. He came to claim you. He came to fill you with courage, peace, and resolve. And then He sends you back into the world carrying His light.Christmas is merry because Christ has already entered the fight and won. But you still have a role to play.This episode is not meant to be admired. It is meant to be lived.Push play. Let the manger break your heart. Then take Christ into battle.Referenced in This EpisodeThe Nativity and the mangerThe CrossThe EucharistThe Holy FamilyThe Holy Sacrifice of the MassPowerful Quotes from the Episode“Blessed are these little hands and feet that will be pierced for our transgressions.”“She was blind, but she could see. I could see, but I was the blind one.”“That infant in the manger may look weak, but that is a warrior.”Key Takeaway for MenStop treating Christmas like a memory and start treating it like a mission. Kneel before the manger or the Eucharist today and give Christ permission to change you. Then lead. Fight sin. Bring light into your home. If Christmas does not lead to conversion, it has been wasted.

Is the slogan, “stand for the flag, kneel for the cross” a harmless expression of the conviction that good Christians can also be good citizens?

In this episode, Dan argues that this slogan is an expression of Christian nationalism, giving voice to anti-Black racism and licensing election denial and efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

The duo dives deep into the "Weapon X" season reviews, analyzing Weapon H as a fun but skippable addition for Discard loyalists, while expressing skepticism about the new "Hybrid" Discard/Destroy cards, Marrow and Wild Child, which feel too niche despite strong stats. The excitement peaks with Maverick, a 4-star pick for Surfer decks, and especially the Fastball Special, which earns a rare 5-star rating from Binks for its incredible potential to revitalize Galactus and Nimrod strategies.

Read Online“Two people went up to the temple area to pray; one was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector. The Pharisee took up his position and spoke this prayer to himself, ‘O God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of humanity—greedy, dishonest, adulterous—or even like this tax collector.'” Luke 18:10–11What a sad prayer. Of course it wasn't even a prayer to God since the Pharisee “spoke this prayer to himself.” The prayer of the tax collector, however, was a perfect model for all prayer. We read that the tax collector “stood off at a distance and would not even raise his eyes to heaven but beat his breast and prayed, ‘O God, be merciful to me a sinner.'” Which prayer more resembles your own prayer?To honestly answer that question, let's examine both prayers. First of all, the contrast of these two prayers is a contrast between humility and pride. The Pharisee was clearly full of pride. Pride blinds us from true self-knowledge. Saint Teresa of Ávila teaches us that the very first thing we must do on our journey to God is obtain self-knowledge through humility. Without that, we will never grow in holiness.The sin of pride is obvious in the prayer of the Pharisee and, therefore, his lack of true self-knowledge is also evident. Note that even his physical posture of standing depicts pride. Throughout the Scriptures, kneeling, or even falling prostrate, is the disposition of the humble. In addition to standing, the Pharisee's prayer was a list of his own goodness. He very well may have fasted twice a week and paid tithes on his whole income. But his prayer suggests that he did this by his own effort. He did not ascribe those acts to the grace and strength of God, which means they were not true acts of charity. His prayer suggests that he doesn't need God in order to do good. This is also seen in the fact that he asks nothing of God. Instead, he simply thanks God for how good he is through his own effort. The result is that God gives him nothing, since he asked for nothing.True prayer must begin with the humble recognition of our weakness and need for God. The tax collector expressed this humility by bowing his head to the ground, not even daring to look up to Heaven. This reveals he did not consider himself worthy of God's grace. Truth be told, he wasn't worthy of it. That's why God's grace is a mercy. It is all mercy in that He bestows that which we are not worthy to receive. And He only bestows it on those who know they are not worthy of it. The words spoken by the tax collector are the perfect model of prayer because his words depict these truths. As a sinner, he doesn't deserve mercy but begs for God's grace as an act of God's mercy.When you pray, how do you pray? What is the disposition of your heart and for what do you pray? Begin by considering the physical position in which you pray. Though we can pray standing, sitting, kneeling or even lying down, there is something very good about kneeling or even lying prostrate. It doesn't mean we have to do so the entire time we pray, but it is a good practice to kneel, bow your head or fall down prostrate before God at least for a moment each day. Do you do this? If not, consider making this a daily habit. When you pray, do you begin your prayer with humility? We begin the Mass by examining our conscience and confessing our sins. This is a good example of how to begin your prayer every time you pray. Humble yourself by calling to mind your sins and weaknesses. Confess them to God and acknowledge the fact that, because of your sins, you are unworthy of God's mercy. Humility like this will help you to see yourself as God sees you, and this will help you open yourself to the grace you need from God to grow in holiness.Reflect, today, upon the humility found in the prayer of this tax collector. As you do, look at your own practice of prayer and discern whether you imitate this tax collector's disposition and prayer. Try to commit to physically humbling yourself before our Lord every day. Kneel, bow your head, or fall down prostrate every day. When you do pray, beg for mercy as one who doesn't deserve anything from God. This is the humble truth on which all prayer must be based. The more you can humble yourself this way, the more God will lift you up and pour forth His mercy upon you. O God, be merciful to me, a sinner. I bow before You, most glorious and merciful God. I offer You my praise and gratitude for Your abundant mercy in my life. I am not worthy of You and Your grace, but You bestow it anyway. For that I thank You with profound gratitude and beg for the ongoing gift of Your grace. Jesus, I trust in You.Image via Adobe Stock: Featured, MainSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.
