Unsealed forensic filings from the Bryan Kohberger case reveal devastating new details about what happened inside the King Road house on November 13, 2022 — including evidence that one victim's fight for survival may have been what brought down her killer.Xana Kernodle was stabbed 67 times. That number alone is staggering, but the context makes it more significant. Kaylee Goncalves sustained 38 wounds, Madison Mogen 28, and Ethan Chapin 17. Xana's wound count exceeds the other three combined. And unlike her roommates, Xana had blood on the bottoms of her bare feet — the only victim who moved after the attack began.Blood pattern analysis found traces of Kaylee and Maddie's blood on the stairwell and bannister leading from the third floor to the second. Since both women never stood up, investigators believe Xana went upstairs, encountered Kohberger mid-attack, and fled with him pursuing her. Police documented an intense struggle and defensive wounds between her fingers, with injuries extending into the bones of her hand. Kaylee's sister called Xana a hero — and the evidence supports that.Prosecutors now believe her fight caused Kohberger to leave behind the DNA-laden knife sheath that cracked the case.Also today: Idaho State Police released 2,800 crime scene photos last week, then removed them hours later after giving families less than 15 minutes' notice. A court order was supposed to prevent this. We break down what happened and why no one's been held accountable.#BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #XanaKernodle #KayleeGoncalves #MadisonMogen #EthanChapin #Autopsy #ForensicEvidence #TrueCrimeToday #CrimeScenePhotosJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Lately, more rappers are saying “F the streets.”Some call it growth. Others call it betrayal.In this solo Ern episode, I explore both sides of the coin—the artists who've evolved and are choosing peace, safety, and longevity, and the fans who feel abandoned by the very voices they helped make rich.We talk about how wealth changes perspective, how it's easier to reject street life once you're insulated from it, and why that message can feel dismissive to people still living in those conditions. This isn't about glorifying the streets—or shaming growth. It's about accountability, communication, and honesty.Can artists walk away from what built them…without rewriting history or leaving their audience behind?

For many American Christians, the book of Revelation didn't first come from careful Bible study — it came through a story. Dramatic disappearances. Global chaos. A world spiraling toward judgment. For an entire generation, the end of the world had a plotline, characters, and a clear timeline — and without realizing it, fiction slowly became theology. In this episode, we explore how modern end-times storytelling didn't just reflect Christian beliefs… it reshaped them. We look at how one particular theological system rose to cultural dominance, why many believers assume it's the “historic Christian view,” and how that assumption dramatically changed the way Revelation is read in churches today. We'll talk about: • How Revelation shifted from a pastoral letter to a prediction chart • Why fear became the dominant emotion in end-times teaching • How Jesus often moved from the center while the Antichrist took the spotlight • What the early church, historic Christianity, and the Wesleyan tradition actually emphasize • Why Revelation is less about escaping the world and more about faithful allegiance within it Revelation was not given to satisfy our curiosity about the future — it was given to shape our character in the present. Before beasts, timelines, and speculation, there is a throne. Before destruction, there is renewal. Before fear, there is the Lamb. Maybe the most faithful thing we can do today is learn to read Revelation again — not as a code to crack, but as a call to courageous, steady faithfulness to Jesus.

This week we report on the U.S. State Department's radical expansion of the Mexico City Policy, also known as the global gag rule, which blocks U.S. federal funding to international nongovernmental organizations that provide or inform about abortion. Beyond the traditional reproductive health restrictions, three sweeping new rules now tether all U.S. foreign assistance to strict prohibitions on “gender ideology” as well as diversity, equity, and inclusion, or DEI, initiatives. During the conversation we also dig into the key findings of a report published by the European Network on Debt and Development, or Eurodad, which warns that modernized aid rules are focusing on the political and commercial priorities of wealthy donors while leaving the world's poorest countries buried in debt. We also touch on the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank's updated accountability and grievance mechanism, and our exclusive story which reveals through a set of leaked emails that the Beijing-based lender is sidestepping on-the-ground meetings with Indigenous communities over alleged human rights abuses at a tourism development project in Indonesia. To explore these stories, Senior Reporter Adva Saldinger sits down with Managing Editor Anna Gawel and Global Development Reporter Jesse Chase-Lubitz for the latest episode of our weekly podcast series.

This week on Seeing Red, we're covering one of the most devastating and upsetting cases we've ever examined. In Part One of this two-part series, we take you through the events leading up to the death of two-year-old Parker Scholtes. We look at her life, her family, and the decisions made in the hours before she was left alone in a hot car — decisions that would end in irreversible tragedy. This episode focuses on the build-up: the timeline, the warning signs, and the moments that culminated in Parker being declared dead. It's a deeply emotional case, and we've chosen to split it into two parts out of respect for the gravity of what happened — and because there is far too much to unpack responsibly in a single episode. Part Two, which will be out next week, will examine what followed in the aftermath — the legal consequences, public reaction, and how this case ultimately concluded — but for now, this episode ends where Parker's life did.

How a Story of Liberation Was Used to Exclude What if the Exodus wasn't just a story of freedom… but also a story of exclusion? Key Takeaways Redemption stories are rarely neutral—they are often weapons. The charge of being "left behind" usually says more about the accuser than the accused. A story about leaving becomes an excuse for not moving at all.

Give to help Chris make Truce Tim and Beverly LaHaye were a prominent American evangelical Christian couple known for their influential work in ministry, literature, and conservative activism. Tim LaHaye, born in 1926 in Detroit, Michigan, was a pastor, author, and speaker who gained national recognition through his work in Christian fiction and prophecy interpretation. He served as a pastor for over 25 years before turning to full-time writing and speaking, often focusing on end-times theology and family values. Beverly LaHaye, born in 1929, was a vocal advocate for conservative Christian values and women's roles in society, founding the organization Concerned Women for America in 1979. Tim LaHaye is perhaps best known as the co-author of the Left Behind series, a best-selling collection of apocalyptic novels written with Jerry B. Jenkins. The series dramatizes a fictionalized version of the Rapture and subsequent tribulation, based on Tim's interpretation of Biblical prophecy. These books sold over 80 million copies worldwide and sparked renewed interest in eschatology within evangelical circles. In addition to fiction, he wrote numerous nonfiction books addressing topics such as marriage, politics, and spirituality, always with a conservative Christian perspective. Together, Tim and Beverly LaHaye were a formidable force in American evangelicalism, combining their talents in writing, activism, and public speaking to influence both Christian thought and conservative politics. Married for over 60 years until Tim's death in 2016, they left behind a legacy of fervent advocacy for their faith and values. While supporters praised their dedication to scripture and family, critics often challenged their political and theological positions. Regardless, their impact on late 20th and early 21st-century evangelicalism remains significant. Sources: Dreyfuss, R. (2004, Feb). "Reverend Doomsday". Rolling Stone, pp. 46-49. White, G.

Overview: We discuss what culturally responsive care really means for underserved communities and how technology, especially AI, can create more equitable solutions in healthcare. We reflect on the challenge of finding tools that expand care teams and deepen patient trust without losing the essential personal touch of community health centers. We talk candidly about the intersection of technology, ROI, and ethics—asking what true success looks like when serving vulnerable populations. Co-design and collaboration with communities are at the heart of our conversation, as we discuss ways tech can scale privilege and raise the quality of care, like improving language access through AI-driven translation services. We also confront the limits of technology and the need for policy change, sharing practical examples from our work and finding hope in partnerships that lead to meaningful innovation Three Takeaways: The Power of Co-Design in Tech SolutionsWe repeatedly highlight that truly useful technology in healthcare—especially for marginalized communities—must be co-designed with input from those very communities. Instead of developing products in isolation and then trying to “retrofit” trust or usability, starting collaborative design from the beginning is critical to both trust and effectiveness. ROI Isn't Just Financial—It's Community HealthInstead of boiling everything down to monetary return, Luis Padilla reframes ROI as the improvement in health, trust, and culturally appropriate care for disenfranchised patients. For community health centers, “margin” is reinvested in service, not profit—a strong counter-narrative to typical business language in healthcare tech. Language Access Technology Has Equity Potential The episode brings forward concrete examples—like live multilingual translation at Asian Health Services—showing how technology (AI-powered live voice translation, multiple language EMR interpretation) can “raise the floor” for accessibility. These innovations move beyond privilege and begin to level the playing field for communities historically left behind.

In this episode we talk about Damen/Amels issues with a brand new yacht, we talk about a guest being left behind on an island in Australia, fake stories in the yachting world and Fires onboard, Why not every yacht is created equal.

This description will be used on YouTube and all podcast platforms this episode is uploaded to. Have you been left behind and don't know what to do? Look no further than "The Tribulation Survival Guide"--the snarkiest post-Rapture field guide you didn't know you needed until it was too late. This week we talk with Stuart Delony, the author of this serious-toned satire about the end-times, and we cover topics such as the relatively recent origins of modern apocalyptic rhetoric, the commercial and political forces who profit from misinterpreted prophecy, and why predictions about the coming end keep popping up, despite the failures of the past. Stuart Delony is a former paster, current writer, and the voice behind the podcast/website/blog Snarky Faith. In his own words, Delony "left the pulpit to tell the truth with satire, story, and a stubborn hope for something better than the church-as-industry." His book, "The Tribulation Survival Guide: How to Stay Alive When Everything Else is Dead" (Quoir Publishing) launches this month.

Some hauntings don't arrive with terror—they unfold quietly, drifting through generations like unfinished conversations. In this episode, Jana shares the story of a lifetime shaped by subtle, lingering touches from the other side. It began when she was eight years old, the moment she somehow knew her grandmother had passed before anyone told her. While the rest of her family received signs of comfort in the weeks that followed, Jana believed she was the only one left without a message… until one night, when her grandmother appeared at the window of the room she couldn't bring herself to sleep in alone.But her grandmother's visit was only the beginning.For years, Jana and her sister shared a dream they never knew they had in common—a dream rooted in a part of their grandparents' house that, according to renovations, once existed in reality. And later, long after the family home changed hands, something continued moving quietly through Jana's life: footsteps on empty stairs, warmth in places no one stood, and the soft stirring of a spoon in a dark kitchen where no one was awake.#TrueGhostStory #RealHaunting #FamilySpirits #SharedDreams #ParanormalPodcast #GhostEncounter #AfterlifeSigns #SupernaturalExperiences #HauntedMemories #SpiritVisitationsLove real ghost stories?

A skeptic sits down to dinner with Jesus at a quiet Italian restaurant, and a half-million readers later, David Gregory finds himself at the center of Christian fiction's unlikely boom. I invited David to unpack how a self-published novella became a national bestseller, why some faith-forward stories cross into the mainstream, and what it really takes to write novels that don't preach yet still carry a clear message.We get practical fast: what qualifies a book as Christian fiction, how to keep theology organic to the plot, and why readers bristle when characters pause for sermons. David shares behind-the-scenes moments from Dinner with a Perfect Stranger, the ripple effects of The Shack and the Left Behind series, and the ongoing shelving debate that keeps many faith-based novels in the religion aisle instead of general fiction. We also talk audience realities—why women 35+ dominate the category, how teens still respond when the story sings, and the surprising power of simple word of mouth over trend-chasing tactics.Then we zoom out to the business. David explains the platform-first logic of today's publishers, why he returned to self-publishing after major-house launches, and what has and hasn't moved the needle for discoverability. He teases new projects, including a fable-like work for all ages and screen adaptations of The Last Christian and One of Us, a contemporary retelling of the gospels through the life of Manuel, a Mexican American mechanic. If you care about faith, fiction, or the craft of making both feel real, this conversation will change how you think about story.Have a comment? Text me! Support the show

The Igba Boyi apprenticeship scheme, described as the world's largest business incubator, has helped the Nigerian Igbo people build generational wealth in the devastating aftermath of the Civil War.The scheme involves a master mentoring an apprentice who, upon graduation, is "settled" with start-up funds and contacts to launch their own business.BBC Reporter Chiagozie Nwonwu explores this vital tradition and why it is now at risk of fading out in modern Nigeria.

“In one cataclysmic moment, millions around the globe disappear.” Jesus returned thirty years ago. Or rather, He sort of pre-returned, the warm-up act, if you will. Many faithful Christians believe in this kind of “rapture.” And in December 1995, two authors teamed up and used this idea to create the most successful biblical end-times thriller we've yet seen. In summer 2024 we overviewed the series. Yet now we'll ask how that first Left Behind novel has aged, thirty years after its release.

In one cataclysmic moment, millions around the globe disappear. Vehicles, suddenly unmanned, careen out of control. People are terror stricken as loved ones vanish before their eyes. In the midst of global chaos, airline captain Rayford Steele must search for his family, for answers, for truth. As devastating as the disappearances have been, the darkest days may lie ahead. 1. Left Behind proclaims gospel truth* Let's start with the true. This book really wants to get you saved. It's a product of deep Biblical Christian desires to redeem souls. Two authors (largely) make this work: the nonfiction author Tim LaHaye (The Act of Marriage) plus fiction author Jerry B. Jenkins. Both men, however, are evangelicals who want the gospel spread. So the novel shares a goal with others thriller based on possible futures: to tell a plot-driven story yet also provoke reader action. At times the threat of sin does feel lesser than that of Antichrist. All biblical Christians agree to repent and receive Jesus as Savior. Yet not all biblical Christians agree with “pray the sinner's prayer.” And certainly only some Christians accept this end-times scenario. The late LaHaye, and Jenkins as well, would surely agree with this. Let readers, then, always discern what in the book is gospel truth and what are opinions (however deeply studied) about prophecy. 2. The story has unbelieving ‘good' heroes Left Behind is underrated for this—its protagonists are good guys. Buck Williams has high ethics in his newsmagazine journalism. Rayford Steele has been (until now) a loving husband and father. Chloe Steele is a young college student free of remarkable sin. And finally, Bruce Barnes is a decent pastor at his local church. And yet … all these men lack Jesus, and they're drifting into sin. The novel's opening spells out the lurking evil in one man's heart: “Rayford Steele's mind was on a woman he'd never touched.” It seems that Rayford's family-man decency only lasts so long. For the authors, then, the Rapture is as much a warning trumpet blast to his heart as it is a measure of mercy for existing Christians. Many fans reacted strongly to this theme. How could such good people, even a pastor at a church, be left out of any pre–Second Coming event? Weren't they by all accounts decent people? Conversely, lest any Christians suppose unbelievers are all wanton sinners, Jenkins answers that no, we can root for these people. Even without the label, Left Behind shows common grace in action. Common grace can make you decent, but only Jesus will save you. 3. Left Behind stays functional and practical This novel is written, by design, to be as widely read as possible. Jerry B. Jenkins has spoken on this as the authors’ express goal. This isn't literary fiction. Chapters are short. The style is simple. The original Left Behind is a rather thick book at 468 pages, but with large font face, wide margins, and lots of white space. All these invite as many readers as possible; this story is populist. Therefore, critics who fault the book for not meeting the goals they have migrated over from other books are revealing their ignorance or possibly elitism. Left Behind isn't trying to be a timeless classic. In fact, many of the original moments quickly felt very timebound. Characters use dial-up modems; cell phones show up sporadically. Later revised versions updated the technology. Yet as Jerry B. Jenkins told us in 2024, he's content to leave the series as it is. However, Left Behind also feels oddly distant from some moments. Rayford's finding of his vanished family is an emotional high point. Other scenes, like a car bombing, get summarized at a distance. This creates plot accessibility, but not so much character access. With some exceptions, then, Left Behind values truth (and its own strong opinions) and goodness in substance over beauty in style. Again, this was likely by intention on the creators’ part. Sometimes what the prosaic style sacrifices for speed still creates deep emotions because the momentum draws in more readers. Later volumes, like book 6, delved deeper into emotional journeys. You feel (even in passing) the weight of hero deaths and struggles. Ultimately, Left Behind offered a different kind of beauty—brisk and efficient pro writing, repetition, and popular accessibility, all of which set a course for this runaway successful late-1990s series.

I actually read them each in 1 sitting and stayed up WAY too late doing so. ;o) Lydia sent this about last week's episode 294: Your point about sci-fi/fantastical exploration and dominion-taking being a huge part of our future in the new heavens & new earth reminds me of my favorite quote from Wayne Thomas Batson’s Door Within trilogy: the last chapter of the last book ends with the hero asking the God figure, the King, if there will be adventures in His kingdom. The King smiles and says, “More than you can possibly imagine.” That line changed my perspective on eternity completely. Several educational years later, I’m a postmillenial and eager for stories that can transcend time and inspire generations to take dominion of the world for Christ’s kingdom. Here’s to an increase of that in the years to come! Next on Fantastical Truth This podcast and other resources from Lorehaven focus on readers.

Some hauntings don't arrive with terror—they unfold quietly, drifting through generations like unfinished conversations. In this episode, Jana shares the story of a lifetime shaped by subtle, lingering touches from the other side. It began when she was eight years old, the moment she somehow knew her grandmother had passed before anyone told her. While the rest of her family received signs of comfort in the weeks that followed, Jana believed she was the only one left without a message… until one night, when her grandmother appeared at the window of the room she couldn't bring herself to sleep in alone.But her grandmother's visit was only the beginning.For years, Jana and her sister shared a dream they never knew they had in common—a dream rooted in a part of their grandparents' house that, according to renovations, once existed in reality. And later, long after the family home changed hands, something continued moving quietly through Jana's life: footsteps on empty stairs, warmth in places no one stood, and the soft stirring of a spoon in a dark kitchen where no one was awake.#TrueGhostStory #RealHaunting #FamilySpirits #SharedDreams #ParanormalPodcast #GhostEncounter #AfterlifeSigns #SupernaturalExperiences #HauntedMemories #SpiritVisitationsLove real ghost stories?

Have you been left behind and don't know what to do? Look no further than "The Tribulation Survival Guide"--the snarkiest post-Rapture field guide you didn't know you needed until it was too late. This week we talk with Stuart Delony, the author of this serious-toned satire about the end-times, and we cover topics such as the relatively recent origins of modern apocalyptic rhetoric, the commercial and political forces who profit from misinterpreted prophecy, and why predictions about the coming end keep popping up, despite the failures of the past. Stuart Delony is a former paster, current writer, and the voice behind the podcast/website/blog Snarky Faith. In his own words, Delony "left the pulpit to tell the truth with satire, story, and a stubborn hope for something better than the church-as-industry." His book, "The Tribulation Survival Guide: How to Stay Alive When Everything Else is Dead" (Quoir Publishing) launches this month.

John Wooley returns to the show to unpack why fitness racing has taken off and why CrossFit never fully leaned into a format that was right in front of it. We talk about how HYROX filled a gap for everyday athletes who wanted measurable competition without complex gymnastics, why certain body types thrive in fitness racing, and why HYROX training has proven more sustainable for long term health and performance than traditional CrossFit cycles. The conversation also covers judging standards, pacing mistakes, the appeal of age group podiums, and how athletes actually get smarter race to race. We then zoom out to the bigger picture. The CrossFit sale, shrinking affiliate numbers, media missteps, and whether newer projects like World Fitness Project can survive in a crowded fitness economy. Less hype, more honesty, and a clear look at what is actually working right now in fitness racing.

Mel Kohberger was training to become a mental health therapist when her brother was arrested for murdering four University of Idaho students. In one phone call, her entire life changed. Her job offer evaporated. Tabloids camped outside her parents' house. Online sleuths picked apart every detail of her family's history — including her sister Amanda's appearance in a 2011 horror film that featured stabbings.For three years, the Kohberger family stayed silent out of respect for the victims' families. Now, in a new interview with The New York Times, Mel is finally telling her side of the story.She reveals the last normal Christmas the family spent together — just days before the FBI raid. She describes her brother's struggles with bullying, autism, and heroin addiction, and the pride the family felt when he seemed to turn his life around. She explains the drawing Bryan held during his sentencing — not a "creepy" symbol, as tabloids claimed, but a colorful heart she made to remind him he was still loved.This isn't a defense of Bryan Kohberger. He pleaded guilty. He's serving four life sentences. This is about what happens to the people connected to someone who commits an unthinkable act — and what the true crime obsession costs the people we never think about.Featuring reporting from The New York Times, CBS News, and ABC News.#BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #KohbergerSister #TrueCrimePodcast #IdahoStudentMurders #MadisonMogen #KayleeGoncalves #XanaKernodle #EthanChapin #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Last year brought many challenges for Christian fantasy fans. From flops at the theaters now threatened by streaming slop, to creators making more events for Christian storytelling, to the continued growth of biblical fiction as the top genre of Christian-made entertainment—let's survey the top ten fantasy-related headlines from last year. Episode sponsors Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queen The Case of the Heart Stone by Tulli Cole Above the Circle of Earth by E. Stephen Burnett Mission update New at Lorehaven: many features over the holidays!

Soon: discover the Guild's new wing, the Lorehaven Authorship. 10. Superheroes failed to save ailing cinema Marvel movies, despite their strengths, all flopped at the box office. Personally I did like Fantastic Four: First Steps, but didn't love it. Lorehaven folks were generally positive about some hero movies. ‘Captain America: Brave New World' Labors to Save a Struggling MCU, Marian A. Jacobs The Antiheroes of Thunderbolts* Preach to Marvel Itself, Daniel Whyte IV ‘Superman' (2025) Will Make You Believe a Man Can Be Earnest, Josiah DeGraaf However, audiences were tepid; none of these films broke even. The greatest foe of superheroes? Flippancy. Next: lack of family. MCU reached its apex with creators who at least feigned sincerity. DC's nobledark tone was winning fans, until the studio freaked out. 9. Disney's ‘Snow White' remake bombed Sticking with cinemas, this one might be the year's greatest fail. ‘Snow White' (2025) Isn't the Fairest of Adaptations, Parker J. Cole I didn't see it. Few people did. More people saw YouTube roasts. This whole nonsense was an ugly reflection of three terrible trends ruining films: “woke” checkboxes, cynicism, and corporate gloss. 8. Fans abandoned legacy sci-fi franchises Once a Doctor Who hero, Russell T. Davies has ruined that series. Star Trek is adrift, desperately trying to hail imaginary “new fans.” Of course, Star Wars keeps failing to please its own alienated fans. The greatest culprit here: Godless, sex-obsessed progressivism. One can't correct from this without visibly rejecting “woke” politics. 7. K-Pop Demon Hunters owned the summer We haven't had a genuine pop-culture movie phenomenon in ages. Then along comes this little giant animated movie on Netflix. ‘K-Pop Demon Hunters' Pits Singing Heroines vs. Monster Idols, Marian A. Jacobs Kids sang catchy songs. Adults found deeper themes to explore. YouTube reactions and covers on Instagram/TikTok exploded. For the first time, Netflix had a true four-quadrant hit on its hands. And dear Lord, may they learn only the right lessons from this, and not turn this into another streaming slop like so much other stuff. 6. ‘Woke' stories stepped back, yet persisted 251. Could a Cultural ‘Vibe Shift' Advance Christian-Made Fiction? Due to political events we won't detail, that agenda is on the wane. At least the Sexualityism religion is seen as stale and unstable. Many are still trying to figure out what, if any, ideas will replace it. A. D. Sheehan had to critique Brandon Sanderson, a late arrival to the “woke” content scene: Brandon Sanderson's New Fantasy ‘Wind and Truth' Summons a Postmodern Cringestorm. Oddly enough, we keep seeing Christian parents posting about the random books they find, after which they ask “Is it woke?” Pro tip: yeah, it's probably woke, especially with a cover like that. By now we surely have enough Christian-made novels to help? 5. Corporate slop threatens human stories 274. Why Shouldn't AI-Generated Content Replace Human Stories? This is partly about AI-generated slop, but not always. Skeptical fans now refer to anything bad with “this looks AI.” Why? Because the problem goes deeper than technology amok. Long before AI, corporate studios began relying on algorithms. I believe that's when these stories began feeling less, well, human. 272. Can We Save Cinema from Sloppy Stories? Instead of human hunches, stories get greenlit by metallic minds. Reference: the short-lived run of Robert Zemekis mocap movies. At first people express curiosity, but eventually they get bored. Prediction: this too shall pass. We'll see a lot of forced “firsts,” like “the first fully AI-generated movie.” They may even succeed. But the novelty will quickly wear off as it did before Mars Needs Moms. Still, Christian creators must dig deeper to defend organic human stories with philosophies deeper than “AI destroys the Earth.” 4. Conservative TV is trying more fantasy We greatly anticipate the DailyWire+ show The Pendragon Cycle. Based on Stephen Lawhead's novels, seven episodes drop Jan. 22. Christian showrunner Jeremy Boreing actually stepped down from being Daily Wire co-CEO, it seems, to ensure finishing this series. Political hot takes scarcely outlast the day. Great stories last long. Alas, there's the constantly controversial Magician's Nephew movie Marketing for this is dreadful, with publicly floated nonsense about an actress playing Aslan or the movie featuring “rock and roll.” 257. By Aslan's Mane, is Netflix Really Casting a Lady as the Lion? Meanwhile, platforms like Angel (run by LDS members, yet with freedom for Christians) released The Wingfeather Saga season 2. We also saw a new angel-heroes show, Gabriel and the Guardians. ‘Gabriel and the Guardians' Echoes a Golden Era of Saturday Morning Cartoons, Jenneth Leed Alas, any sci-fi-ish efforts seem restricted to dystopian dramas. We need higher budgets and risks to widen those genre limits. 3. Realm Makers unites Christian creators 265. How Can We Shine the Gospel at the Realm Makers Expo? 266. How Do You Assemble a New Expo for Christian Fandoms? | with Scott Minor Last year's conference in Grand Rapids marked an experiment. Can this organization blend creator training with a public expo? Results were mixed-positive, mainly because of the venue choice. For me, a debut sci-fi novelist, results may have skewed better. Yet our primary audience must be Christian fans and families. A semi-major downtown is difficult for these folks to access. Next year's new venue in St. Louis looks much more promising! And it sounds like the public Expo will be easier for fans to access. For Christian fantasy to grow, we must unite over common interest. Yet this unity must be based on love for the true Jesus, our Author. 2. Biblical fiction is the top Christian genre There's no contest. Amish and historical fiction is dethroned. Christian fantasy (mostly romantasy) remains confined to books. Amazon's ‘House of David' Anoints an Intriguing Biblical Epic, Michael Allen ‘House of David' Is Crowned King of Amazon Prime, Jenneth Leed 1. Fantasy for teen/YA women continues to rule the Christian-made fantastical worlds This might well be the repeat headline from previous years. Facts are facts. Teen girls and women outread everyone else. When they like fantasy, they prefer female heroes/relationships. Romantasy is the queen. And her handmaiden is royal drama. 249. What is ‘Romantasy'? | with Parker J. Cole And the new princess on the block? Time-travel romance, for sure. 263. What is Time-Travel Romance? | Every Hour Until Then with Gabrielle Meyer These books get the most attention on Instagram and elsewhere. Is it true that “men don't read”? Not necessarily. Men do read. But they tend to read nonfiction about culture, theology, history. And for fantastical fiction, these readers have unique expectations. Christians here favor proven legacies, especially Lewis/Tolkien. One can't complain about the reality. Instead, meet the standard. Frankly, that's my hope for Above the Circle of Earth and beyond. Of course I support teen/YA female-focused fantasy stories! Yet that's not my genre; it doesn't help me, personally, grow in joy. Surely there are more readers who favor other kinds of stories, maybe deeper, maybe in underdog genres like sci-fi and horror. Christians must expect a true joyous sci-fi future under King Jesus. And we uniquely understand supernatural realities/horror today. But making new stories isn't enough. We must cultivate readers. That's our mission at Lorehaven with our new mission statement: Escape bad books. Find the best Christian fantasy and sci-fi! Watch this space for more about bad books, reader cultivation, and new resolutions to avoid scroll traps and level up your imagination.

Is your growth threatening your marriage - or is it actually an invitation from God?If you're a Christian woman in business, a Christian leader, or a faith-driven entrepreneur who feels God stretching you in this season, but your spouse feels stuck or left behind, this episode is for you. We unpack how to pursue godly success, purpose at work, and faith-driven leadership without sacrificing your marriage in the process. You'll walk away with language, tools, and hope to navigate emotional tension, identity shifts, and misaligned seasons—without shrinking back from who God is asking you to become.SummaryIn this episode of the Don't Waste the Chaos Podcast, Christian business and HR consultant Kerri Roberts sits down with her husband Terry Roberts for a real, unscripted conversation about what happens when one partner grows and the other feels left behind. Through their own stories - from grad school to career pivots, from burnout to business launches - they talk honestly about money fears, identity, retirement, and how growth in one spouse can feel threatening, scary, or lonely to the other.Kerri and Terry dig into how identity in Christ shapes emotional health, how to support your spouse without losing yourself, and why “working on each other” almost always backfires. Terry shares about the 365-day identity devotional he's building and how it's helping him process insecurity, comparison, and emotional triggers in a way that keeps his focus on Christ instead of on blame. Together, they explore what it means for Christian women in leadership and Christian entrepreneurs to grow fast, pivot careers, or start businesses while still honoring their marriage covenant.If you're a high-achieving Christian woman in business who's afraid your growth might cost you your marriage - or you feel resentful, stuck, or unseen while your spouse sprints ahead—this conversation will ground you in Scripture, reframe your expectations, and give you practical ways to overcome chaos at home.

Stefan Molyneux examines the idea of "defooing," a process of breaking away from harmful family patterns to build a better life ahead. He points out how defooing requires active steps, since damaging family members often block progress in personal bonds and development. Using stories from listeners, he talks about gaining perspective from others, and how family background affects one's sense of self and dealings with people.He looks at the difficulties in reaching out to family like brothers or sisters after pulling back from a poisonous setup. Molyneux covers the tangled feelings and dangers of being upfront about family issues, noting the likely pushback from those who side with the wrongdoers. He wraps up by considering the role of honesty in creating solid relationships, and stresses choosing ties that actually help, to support one's own recovery and advancement.SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro Gilligan-Toth begin the new year by pulling apart something we all use but rarely question: the calendar. From Julius Caesar's ego-driven timekeeping decisions to the leap year, misplaced months, and how entire civilizations quietly agreed on when the year should begin, it's a surprisingly strange history of how humans try — and often fail — to organize time itself. But once the clock runs out, the episode takes a much darker turn. Jethro dives into the true story of the Memorial Mound in Bessemer, Alabama — an underground burial mausoleum inspired by ancient Roman catacombs and Indigenous burial traditions, designed to last for centuries. Instead, it became one of the most disturbing cases of abandonment in modern funeral history. After the site quietly closed, human remains were left behind for years. Caskets stacked like warehouse inventory. Bodies decomposing in sealed darkness. An infant among them. When urban explorers finally entered the structure in 2014, what they found triggered a federal investigation and raised troubling questions about oversight, neglect, and how easily the dead can be forgotten. Along the way, you'll hear:• The strange origins of month names and New Year's Day• How calendars slowly drifted out of reality• A “Thing in the Middle” packed with bizarre machine and technology facts• And a documented case of human remains abandoned inside an American mausoleum It's a story about time, memory, and what happens when systems fail — quietly, slowly, and out of sight.

A young person living alone in a quiet duplex is plagued by recurring dreams—intrusive, vivid, and wrong. Each night, a humanoid figure appears, watching, whispering the same message: you don't belong here. He begins waking with unexplained chest pain… and deep, deliberate scratches carved into his skin. Sleep becomes something to fear. And then one night, the dreams stop—because whatever was haunting him is no longer waiting for sleep... Follow Be.

Everyone wants success. Very few people are prepared for what success demands internally.   In this episode of the Wealth On The Beach Podcast, Ted Ryce explains why inner strength is the true separator between those who rise and those who quietly disappear.   Hosted by Daniel Alonzo, this conversation reveals how inner strength is built through adversity, consistency, and learning how to stay grounded when life pushes back.   Inside this episode:   Why comfort weakens ambition   How discipline becomes emotional stability   The mindset shift required to stay strong during uncertainty   What it really means to become unshakeable   This is not motivation. This is mental conditioning.   If you're serious about building a stronger version of yourself — one that doesn't crack when things get hard — this episode is where you start.

Why is it that in the face of the most powerful tool humanity has ever created, so many capable people feel overwhelmed instead of empowered?Marc sits down with serial entrepreneur and AI consultant Mike Schwarz to explore what's really happening beneath the AI conversation.This isn't a discussion about tools or trends — it's about fear, acceleration, mental overload, and the growing divide between those who adapt and those who freeze. Mike shares what he's seeing inside the top 1–5% of AI adopters, why most people are stuck using AI at the surface level, and why mental fitness may be the defining advantage of the next decade.Show Partners:A special thanks to our mental fitness + sweat partner Sip SaunasPersonal Socrates: Better Question, Better LifeGet in Touch:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/behindthehumanLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marc-champagne-

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! For more than a century, lunatic asylums stood as monuments to control—vast brick complexes built to remove the unwanted from society. Across much of the world, these institutions housed not only those suffering from mental illness, but anyone deemed inconvenient, misunderstood, or different. Australia's Aradale Asylum was no exception. In this episode of The Grave Talks, paranormal investigator William Tabone guides us through the very real—and deeply haunted—history of Aradale. Within its towering walls, lives were confined for reasons that often had little to do with illness and everything to do with fear, language barriers, and social rejection. Today, those walls still stand. And many believe the people who were locked inside never truly left. As we explore the echoes of isolation, loss, and forgotten humanity, we confront a chilling question: when society abandons people behind closed doors, what remains after the doors finally open? This is Part Two of our conversation. #HauntedAsylum #AradaleAsylum #AustralianHauntings #ParanormalHistory #TrueParanormal #GhostStories #HauntedPlaces #TheGraveTalks #ForgottenSouls  Love real ghost stories?
