    We get another chance to watch Buffoon and Company in Latin America. Watch him butcher a foreign language, again. We see the fam saying some tearful goodbyes to their new friends while Jana gets some serious rubik's cube time in. Back home, Famy gets to Fame while taking the little ones to a reptile "museum". Our unenthusiastic host has some really cool animals, in a questionable space. See our favorite duo talk about the morality of snakes eating mice. In our Dig we look at Billy G's hubris manifesting in a "law school". We are using that term loosely. He assumes that when he has thrown an army of teens at a challenge, nothing catastrophic has happened, so why not open a non-accredited law school with a basis in bible principles? Nothing can go wrong there. Objection! Enjoy what you hear? Feel like you have a Servant's Heart? Would you like to help support a snarking couple in Arizona?

    Netflix's Emilia Perez is a hot mess of a movie. This musical crime drama, written and directed by French filmmaker Jacques Audiard, follows a de-greenified Zoë Saldaña working as a lawyer for a Mexican drug lord who transitions.Saldaña's character later goes on to support the former Mexican drug lord as she attempts to atone for her criminal past by founding a nonprofit to rescue the victims of the country's drug cartels, including her own.What could have been a powerful exploration of the struggles faced by trans people and all women in Latin America instead turns everyone into cartoons. Emilia Perez reduces the harsh realities of cartel violence and trans struggles into a gaudy spectacle, making one wonder if it was slapped together just to throw a wrench in Wicked's awards season dominance.Adding to the controversy, new reports have surfaced about the film's lead, transgender actress Karla Sofía Gascón, and her troubling history of racist and anti-Muslim remarks.Today we take a look at Emilia Peréz and other terrible, campy films the world would rather forget ever existed. Plus-- Paul Reubens, best known as Pee-Wee Herman, comes out of the coffin as gay in a new documentary about his not-so-private life.Woman pleads guilty to sendng fart vdeos to her boyfriends ex. Chappell Roan celebrates her Grammy win for best new artist by calling out record labels, demanding they give their employees a livable wage and healthcare. A mysterious nationwide network against Trump called the 50501 Movement plans protests in all of the nation's capitols on Feb 5. Happy 20 year anniversary to Feast of Fun, one of the first 50 podcasts in history, still going strong 3133 shows later. SAVE FEAST OF FUN, HELP US GET A NEW COMPUTER:• feastoffun.com/donate

    “Whoever has a bountiful eye will be blessed, for he shares his bread with the poor.” - Proverbs 22:9Do you have a generous heart—one that seeks out opportunities to bless others, especially those in need? Today, Kelly Miller joins us to share a powerful way you can not only support the poor around the world but also help bring lasting transformation to their lives.Kelly Miller is the CEO and President of Cross International, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. The Global Crisis: Hunger, Clean Water, and PovertyPoverty remains a critical issue around the world, affecting millions of families who struggle to access basic necessities like food, clean water, and education.The numbers are staggering:Over 800 million people go hungry every day.More than 50% of child deaths are linked to hunger-related issues.Nearly 700 million people lack access to safe and clean water.Cross International is a faith-based humanitarian organization dedicated to transforming the lives of impoverished individuals and families worldwide. It is on the front lines, working in over a dozen low-income countries to meet these urgent needs while also addressing the deeper spiritual transformation that brings lasting hope.The Mission of Cross InternationalFounded in 2001, Cross International partners with local Christian ministries to provide essential resources to struggling communities. Their mission is to provide food, water, and shelter and transform lives through the love of Christ.The organization primarily serves Latin America and regions of Eastern and Southern Africa, where the need is particularly dire. Through local partnerships, they empower communities by offering:Nutritious meals for childrenClean drinking waterEducational opportunitiesDiscipleship and spiritual developmentBeyond Humanitarian Aid: Transforming Lives Through ChristCross International goes beyond simply meeting physical needs—they focus on long-term transformation. One example of this is their Thriving Kids Initiative, which ensures children not only receive food and education but also grow in faith and purpose.Take Kenny, a young man from rural Malawi. He grew up in extreme poverty, with little access to food or education. Through Cross International's partnership with local ministries, Kenny was able to attend school and receive his only meal of the day—a nutritious meal provided through the program.Over the years, Kenny has thrived academically, and today, he is a university student in Malawi. He dreams of returning to his village, starting a business, and helping lift others out of poverty. His story is just one of many transformed lives through the work of Cross International.How You Can Help: Become a Thriving Kids AmbassadorThe impact of your generosity can be life-changing. For just $62, you can provide:Life-saving food and waterEducational opportunitiesSpiritual nourishment through the GospelYour gift can make an eternal difference in a child's life. Consider becoming a Thriving Kids Ambassador by giving today.Every gift of $62 helps a child not only survive but thrive through the love of Christ. To join this mission, visit crossinternational.org/faith. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My problem isn't necessarily with the credit cards. This year, I have financed three reasonably large items, including a used RV that I financed for $17,000 at 10.99% interest over 15 years. If I wait to pay it off for the entire 15 years of the loan, the total cost will triple or even more. How can I pay off this RV more quickly with the resources I have left?I'm in a tough financial spot with debt and no money, and I'm not sure if I should file for bankruptcy or keep trying to pay it off. I want to honor God with my finances, but I'm really struggling.I'm interested in the advantages and disadvantages of creating a trust with money we have after the passing of a loved one, as opposed to investing the money in mutual funds. Since I'm unsure of our intentions for the money, I'm trying to determine whether a trust is the better option or whether I should invest it in mutual funds.I have a $400,000 rental property with $60,000 left on my home mortgage. The rental brings in $1,800 per month. Should I sell the property, use the proceeds to pay off my debts, and invest the remaining $340,000, or should I continue renting the property until I'm 65?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly PublicationCross InternationalLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Enlisting in the Royal Marines at 16, he rose through the ranks to join the UK's clandestine Special Boat Service (SBS), where he led high-stakes operations across Iraq, Afghanistan, and other global hotspots for 10 years. From hostage rescues to counter-narcotics missions, Fox operated at the razor's edge of combat, earning expertise in demolitions, jungle survival, and maritime counter-terrorism. Yet beneath the hardened exterior lay a brewing storm – the psychological toll of relentless combat zones and fractured personal relationships culminated in a 2012 medical discharge diagnosed with PTSD. Adrift after leaving the forces, Fox faced what he describes as his “darkest hour”: a collapsing marriage, toxic relationships, and spiralling suicidal thoughts. “I was a mess,” he recalls. “I'd built this identity as an invincible soldier, but admitting I needed help felt like weakness”[9][18]. His turning point came through therapy and organisations like Rock2Recovery, where he learned to reframe vulnerability as strength. This journey inspired his Sunday Times bestselling memoir *Battle Scars*, a raw account of confronting mental health struggles that resonated far beyond military circles. Fox's second act has seen him become a beacon of hope through television and advocacy. As a lead instructor on Channel 4's *SAS: Who Dares Wins* since 2015, he tests civilians and celebrities alike with brutal Special Forces training drills, using the show as a platform to discuss emotional resilience. His investigative series *Inside the Real Narcos* further showcased his ability to thrive under pressure, embedding with drug cartels in Latin America[1][4]. Beyond screens, Fox co-founded BreakPoint, a team-building company applying military strategies to corporate challenges, and delivers keynote speeches on leadership and overcoming adversity. Now a prominent mental health advocate, Fox emphasises that “PTSD isn't just a soldier's struggle – life can traumatise anyone”. Through his 2022 *Life at the Limit* speaking tour and ongoing work, he teaches practical techniques for managing stress: acknowledging fears, creating action plans, and finding purpose through service. From surviving Taliban ambushes to navigating depression's trenches, Fox's story proves that even the toughest battles can be won – not through sheer force, but by embracing vulnerability and supporting others on their journeys. As he puts it: “True strength isn't about being unbreakable. It's about learning how to rebuild when you do”. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Join Jim and Greg on 3 Martini Lunch as they assess apparent progress on multiple issues with Panama and Mexico, escalating trade tensions with Canada, and Democrats looking unserious as they choose new leadership.First, they cheer Panama's decision not to renew its Belt & Road partnership with China, signaling reduced Chinese influence at the Panama Canal. They're also pleased to see Secretary of State Marco Rubio secure commitments to curb illegal immigration coming our way through Latin America. Plus, they highlight Trump envoy Ric Grenell's successful trip to Venezuela, where he secured the release of six American hostages and a pledge—however dubious—from Venezuela to accept deported criminals. They also welcome the U.S. decision to pause tariffs on Mexico after Mexico agreed to strengthen border security.Next, they analyze the deepening U.S.-Canada trade dispute as Trump imposes 25% tariffs and Canada retaliates. Will the two nations move towards a deal like the U.S. and Mexico, or will tensions persist? Jim also explains how tariffs and trade wars impact American consumers.Finally, Democrats elect new party leaders, with Minnesota's Ken Martin leading the DNC and gun control activist David Hogg securing a vice-chair role. Jim argues these choices show Democrats have no plans to change course despite last year's electoral setbacks.Please visit our great sponsors:Netsuitehttps://NetSuite.com/MARTINISee what is next for your business with the CFO's Guide to AI and Machine Learning free when you go to NetSuite.com/MARTINI.   Omaha Steaks https://www.OmahaSteaks.com/3MLGo to https://www.OmahaSteaks.com/3ML to subscribe and get 12 FREE burgers, FREE shipping, and an EXTRA 10% OFF for the life of your subscription.

    In this episode on Palisades Gold Radio, Tom Bodrovics welcomes back Jaime Carrasco. Jaime is Senior Portfolio Manager & Senior Investment Advisor at Harbourfront Wealth Management. They discuss the global economic landscape and the significance of gold in today's context. Carrasco expresses his belief that Trump's election and proposed policies could lead to a reset of debt and potential devaluation of US dollars held in treasuries around the world. He emphasizes the importance of understanding history, as previous periods saw significant increases in dividends from gold mining companies during times of monetary instability. Carrasco encourages investors to consider gold as a hedge against inflation, purchasing power loss, and political instability. He also recommends silver mining companies due to their current undervaluation compared to gold. Central banks are increasingly buying gold as a safe haven asset, and Trump's actions are aimed at rebuilding America for Americans, possibly necessitating a full reset. The location of US gold reserves and geopolitical issues like China's policy in Latin America, Europe's response to immigration, and the US-China-Russia alignment are significant sociological factors affecting the global economy. Despite the current uncertainty, Carrasco advocates for a decentralized world where nations can thrive and encourages investors to consider gold, silver, and Bitcoin as financial lifeboats.

    Money on the Left speaks with Edward Jones Corredera, author of Odious Debt: Bankruptcy, International Law, and the Making of Latin America (Oxford University Press, 2024). What are fallen tyrants owed? What makes debt illegitimate? And when is bankruptcy moral? Odious Debt shows how Latin American nations have wrestled with the morality of indebtedness and insolvency since their foundation, and outlines how Latin America's forgotten history of contestation can shed new light on seemingly intractable contemporary dilemmas.With a focus on the early modern Spanish Empire and modern Mexico, Colombia, and Argentina, Odious Debt explores how discussions about the morality of debt and default played a structuring role in the construction and codification of national constitutions, identities, and international legal norms in Latin America. Ultimately, Corredera reveals how Latin American jurists developed a powerful global critique of economics and international law which, in rejecting the political violence promulgated in the name of unjust debt, continues to generate pressing questions about debt, bankruptcy, reparations, and the pursuit of a moral world economy.Corredera is Senior Research Fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law and Lecturer in History at Spain's National Distance Education University.Visit our Patreon page here: https://www.patreon.com/MoLsuperstructureMusic by Nahneen Kula: www.nahneenkula.com

America's Stone Age Ports: How Unions Block Progress   One Year, Big Results! How Javier Milei Freed Markets, and Reduced Inflation One year ago, libertarian Javier Milei was elected president of Argentina. How has it worked out Amazingly well! In his first year, Milei has already cut government spending by 30%, eliminated entire ministries, fired thousands of government workers, slashed subsidies, and deregulated the economy. Today, inflation is down, the federal budget is in surplus, and the country's housing shortage crisis is over. “When Milei came into power,” says Ian Vasquez of the Cato Institute, “There was 40% poverty rate. There was an annual inflation of over 200%. Now inflation is down. The economy started to recover... Milei is showing that his libertarian policies are working." Years of big government had left Argentina in crisis. Pundits and the media claimed Milei couldn't fix any of that. They were wrong. Milei's success shows that freedom works!

But at the Art Institute of California, she learned she was a victim. “I was introduced to microaggressions,” she explains. “This set of thought processes was really unhealthy and was making me miserable.” Lucy Kross at Stanford was taught that Ben Shapiro's ideas "put black, brown, trans, queer, and Muslim students at risk." She found that embracing woke language made her more popular. “When I started to use the vocabulary of like, marginalized, intersectional, hegemonic…People just kind of smiled a little bit more.” Over time, she, and others, concluded that such ideas hurt her. Our new video looks at their experience navigating campus indoctrination, and how they escaped it.   The White Pill: Big Government Can Be Defeated (Just Ask the Soviet Union) https://youtu.be/ELftaF5ANKg?si=dj0aJM_GW53ex3Zn John Stossel 1.03M subscribers 141,337 views Dec 17, 2024 People have been “black pilled” to think the world is doomed. Michael Malice says there's hope. In his book, “The White Pill,” he argues that tyrannical regimes, like the Soviet Union, can be toppled. ———— To get our new weekly video from Stossel TV, sign up here: https://www.johnstossel.com/#subscribe ———— Today, media and universities distort history, and push socialism. It used to be worse. The New York Times once covered up Stalin's famine, even as millions starved. Why? Malice says it's because NYT star reporter Walter Duranty liked communism's utopian promises, and status he got from his exclusive Stalin interviews. Malice says the fall of the Soviet Union should give us hope that America can resist the universities and media's brainwashing – or any tyranny that someone is “black pilled” about. Our video above explains Malice's “white pill” and why you might want to take it.   Why Government Can't Build Broadband or Charging Stations… Or Anything! The government promised to expand broadband, build hundreds of thousands of EV chargers, and to bring back semiconductor jobs. They delivered delays, waste, and failure. Why? Because they spend your money, not their own. After three years and $65 billion spent to expand broadband, not a single person has yet been connected. Also, two years into Biden's $7.5 billion EV charging stations initiative, which was supposed to build 500,000 stations, only seven have been built. The CHIPS Act promised to bring semiconductor jobs back to America. But the money got tied up in DEI quotas, climate pledges, and union mandates. When bureaucrats spend other people's money, they have little incentive to spend it carefully. Our new video explains why government should leave building things to the private sector.

That innovation upsets unions. International Longshoreman's Association president Harold Daggett says they'll soon strike if automation isn't completely banned. "If I don't get that, I'm not coming back to the table!” Daggett shouts. He has been clear about the harm that will impose on Americans. "Guy sell cars can't sell cars because the cars aren't coming in off the ships… constructions workers get laid off because the materials aren't coming in." The union boss wants to protect his union's jobs, but there's a cluelessness to his demands. Banning automation will also hurt his members. "They'll save some jobs today," economist Liya Palagashvili explains, “but they'll destroy a lot more jobs in the future." That's because shippers have choices. They'll just send goods to the more efficient, automated ports. That's just one of the things unions get wrong about automation. Our new video explores how automation will make the future safer and richer, if only unions get out of the way.

Today, our interdenominational Christian ministry serves the poor in primarily 17 countries throughout the Caribbean and Latin America. Thanks to our faithful donors, we are able to provide food, housing, healthcare, education, fresh water, emergency relief, micro-enterprise solutions and much more. We are proud to have fed millions of people and provided more than 15.7 billion dollars in aid. Our faith inspires us to be an organization built on compassion, and motivated by love. Our mission is to bring relief to the poorest of the poor in the countries where we serve. We strive to reflect God's unconditional love. It's a sacrificial love that embraces all people regardless of race or religion. We believe that we can show His love by serving the “least of these” on this earth as Christ challenged us to do in Matthew 25. We pray that by God's grace, and with your support, we can continue to bring relief to the suffering and hope to the hopeless.   Report on Food For the Poor by Charity Navigator https://www.charitynavigator.org/ein/592174510   -------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer from ACU.
