Podcasts about Letson

In Part 12 of The Journey Beyond Death, and the second installment of our seven-part Near Death Experience series, we explore extraordinary journeys beyond the veil that challenge everything we think we know about life and consciousness. Susan Grau shares her astonishing survival from being trapped inside an unplugged freezer as a child — an event that opened the door to celestial realms, where she witnessed the Room of Heart's Desires and the profound truth that not all earthly wishes serve the soul's greater purpose. Retired fireman Bill Letson recounts his own near-death experience during a critical illness, detailing a powerful journey beyond his human identity into realms of infinite peace and cosmic unity. Bill's story invites us to consider the idea that our physical existence may be an orchestrated simulation designed for the soul's evolution — and that love and awareness are our truest destinations. We are also joined by Dr. Anna Stone, who shares her near-death experience following a catastrophic medical emergency. Anna's journey takes her beyond the human body into a realm where thought moves faster than light, where personality and humor endure, and where the ultimate measure of a life is the kindness we show others. Her stunning testimony offers a rare glimpse into the soul's expansive existence beyond the boundaries of time, space, and the material world. Through Susan, Bill, and Anna's powerful stories, we confront the nature of reality itself and glimpse the deeper truth: we are infinite beings navigating a temporary human experience. Their revelations remind us that consciousness never dies, love never fades, and that each act of empathy leaves an eternal mark on the soul's journey home. ----------------------------- Featuring in order of appearance 01:00 – NDE Survivor Susan Grau 10:46 - NDE Survivor Bill Letson 35.54 - NDE Survivor Dr. Anna Stone ----------------------------- Susan Grau — NDE Survivor & Spiritual Medium At just five years old, Susan Grau experienced a profound near-death encounter after a traumatic accident, forever altering her understanding of life, death, and the unseen world.

Earlier this month, former President Barack Obama stopped by a Kamala Harris campaign office in Pennsylvania and made headlines by admonishing Black men for being less enthusiastic about supporting her for president compared with the support he received when he ran in 2008.“Part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren't feeling the idea of having a woman as president, and you're coming up with other alternatives and other reasons for that,” Obama said.Within days of Obama's comments, Harris unveiled an “opportunity agenda for Black men” in part to energize and engage this slice of the electorate. According to a recent New York Times/Siena College poll, 70 percent of likely Black male voters said they supported Harris, compared with more than 80 percent of Black men who voted for President Joe Biden in 2020. So should we believe the polls? Reveal host Al Letson and Mother Jones video correspondent Garrison Hayes are skeptical. In this podcast extra, Letson and Hayes discuss whether Democrats should be concerned about Black men defecting from the party, former President Donald Trump's own plans to win them over, and why they think one of the most Democratic-leaning demographics in the US will likely stay that way.  Support Reveal's journalism at Revealnews.org/donatenow Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get the scoop on new episodes at Revealnews.org/newsletter Connect with us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram

In the summer of 2023, Reveal host Al Letson felt compelled to return home to Jacksonville, Florida. His best friend had recently passed away following a long battle with cancer, and he wanted to be close to the place where they became men together.But when he arrived, he found a city and state he barely recognized. In recent years, the Republican-dominated legislature has passed a slate of laws targeting minority groups. Educators could now face criminal penalties over the material they teach regarding gender and sexuality. Schools across the state have banned books about queer families, transgender youth, and Black history. Many of these legislative changes were part of Gov. Ron DeSantis' so-called “war on woke,” launched ahead of his failed bid for the presidency. This week on Reveal, Letson examines Black life in Florida, following a rare travel advisory by the NAACP stating that “Florida is openly hostile toward African Americans, people of color, and LGBTQ+ individuals.” This is an update of an episode that originally aired in January 2024.

Over one-third of the world's food is lost or wasted, undermining efforts to end hunger and malnutrition while contributing 8 to 10 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. In low- and middle-income countries, over 40 percent of food loss occurs before a crop even makes it to market, whether due to inadequate storage, pests or microbes, spoilage, spillage in transport or otherwise. Eliminating food loss and waste (FLW) would provide enough food to feed two billion people, as well as reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Addressing FLW is critical to global food security, nutrition and climate change mitigation, with food rescue playing an important role in these efforts. In order to raise awareness, exchange information and share success stories, USAID's Food Loss and Waste Community of Practice created the USAID Kitchen Sink Food Loss and Waste Podcast. Our goal is to share monthly, bite-sized episodes that highlight the approaches USAID and the U.S. government are taking to address FLW. We hope these episodes provide a valuable resource for those interested in why we should care about FLW and how we can reduce it. Our latest episode is with Diane Letson, Vice President of Food Industry Partnerships for Feeding America,  a US–based non-profit organization that is a nationwide network of more than 200 food banks that feed more than 46 million people through food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters, and other community-based agencies. Diane shares how Feeding America's work reduces food loss and waste while fighting hunger and how partnerships with cold chain companies can bolster these efforts. Together, we discuss how legislation can shape food donation and the important roles food banks play in our communities that go beyond handing out food.You can subscribe to receive the latest episodes of USAID's Kitchen Sink and listen to our episodes on the platform of your choice: Apple, Spotify, and more! Video recordings of the episodes are available on YouTube. Check in every month for new episodes as global experts discuss a range of issues about FLW and methane emissions - from the critical role of youth to the staggering economic costs - and learn about specific ways that USAID is tackling FLW around the world. If you have an idea for an episode topic you'd like to see featured or if you would like to participate in an episode of USAID's Kitchen Sink, please reach out to Nika Larian (nlarian@usaid.gov).There's no time to waste!

Today, we dive into impactful stories and events with Al Letson and his Reveal podcast on being Black in Florida. Letson talks about the complexities of hometown experiences, historical landscapes and tragic events. We also explore the aftermath of the Doro Rise fire in Downtown Jax, and Yaya Cardona of Cre8Jax stops by to tell us all the things happening around the First Coast.

Last summer, Reveal host Al Letson returned home to Jacksonville, Florida, to find a changed state. The Republican Legislature had passed a slate of laws targeting minority groups. Educators could now face criminal penalties over the material they teach regarding gender and sexuality, and schools across the state were banning books about queer families, transgender youth and Black history. There were also repeated instances of racist and anti-Semitic speech, including Nazis waving swastikas in front of Disney World. All of this contributed to the NAACP issuing a rare travel advisory stating that “Florida is openly hostile toward African Americans, people of color and LGBTQ+ individuals.” Then on Aug. 26, a White supremacist killed three Black people at a Dollar General in Jacksonville.  When Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis attended a vigil for the victims, he was met with boos and mourners shouting, “Your policies caused this.”  In this episode, Letson digs into the policies DeSantis and the Legislature have passed in recent years and their effects on Black Floridians and other people of color. He speaks with a history teacher who says the new laws have made it harder to educate students, as well as a mother who describes books being removed from her daughter's classroom and rules barring students from sharing books with friends at school. Letson also interviews state Rep. Randy Fine, a Republican who championed many of the new policies, including the Stop WOKE Act, which restricts how racism and history are taught in schools.  In the final segment, Letson examines redistricting in the state. In 2022, DeSantis vetoed maps drawn by the Republican Legislature, and the governor's office instead drew new maps that got rid of two Black-dominated districts and increased the number of Republican-leaning districts. Those maps, which were subsequently passed by lawmakers, are now being battled over in both state and federal court. To understand the debate, Letson speaks with reporter Andrew Pantazi of the Jacksonville news organization The Tributary, as well as lawmakers on both sides of the aisle. Fine defends the new maps, saying they're designed to challenge Florida's Constitution, which he argues requires “racial gerrymandering.” Democratic state Rep. Angie Nixon says the new maps violate Florida's constitutional protections of racial minorities and their ability to “elect representatives of their choice.” Support Reveal's journalism at Revealnews.org/donatenow Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get the scoop on new episodes at Revealnews.org/newsletter Connect with us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram

William J. Letson Jr. is a retired fire captain and forester of 35 years. In 1994 his engine company responded to, and treated, severely ill patient in the Santa Barbara area. Within a few days he was hospitalized with a similar illness and was admitted to intensive care where he spent the night extremely dehydrated with failing vital signs. During that night he underwent a profound Near Death Experience (NDE) where he separated from his physical body, travelled through a star filled realm and interacted with some very strange ‘other worldly' beings.Bill spent the next 15 years quietly trying to make sense of the incredibly blissful sensations of dying, the very unusual and loving beings he met with, and the persistence of self (consciousness) without a material body. Recognizing in 2010 the many similarities of NDE accounts, Bill set out to discover first-hand the true nature of our earthly journey. His story links together the NDE, shamanic ceremony (DMT), and the power of silence in nature. Bill explains the unbelievable process of Kundalini and what is really occurring in awakening to the realization of infinite conscious dimensions, complete energetic worlds, all around us. Bill lives in Atascadero, California with his wife Lia and a bunch of wonderful, spoiled creatures.Please enjoy my conversation with Bill Letson.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4858435/advertisement

After Billey Joe Johnson Jr. died in 2008, the state of Mississippi outsourced his autopsy. Al Letson and Jonathan Jones travel to Nashville, Tennessee, to interview the doctor who conducted it. Her findings helped lead a grand jury to determine Johnson's death was an accidental shooting. However, Letson and Jones share another report that raises doubts about her original conclusions.  This episode was originally broadcast in October 2021.

Billey Joe Johnson Jr. was a high school football star headed for the big time. Then, early one morning in 2008, the Black teenager died during a traffic stop with a White deputy. His family's been searching for answers ever since. More than a decade ago, Reveal host Al Letson traveled to Lucedale, Mississippi, to report on the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. While there, locals told him there was another story he should be looking into: Johnson's suspicious death.   During that traffic stop, police say Johnson died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. But for Johnson's family, that explanation never made sense.  In the first episode of this seven-part series, Letson returns to Mississippi with reporter Jonathan Jones to explore what happened to Johnson – and what justice means in a place haunted by its history.  This episode was originally broadcast in October 2021.

A fatal motorcycle crash occurred on Saturday night on Highway 92, as reported by the Cherokee Sheriff's Office. Deputies arrived at the scene near Acworth at approximately 6:30 p.m. The incident involved a car and a motorcycle. According to the sheriff's office, a car driven by Nichole Phillips, 53, from Acworth, was making a left turn from Ridge Mill Drive onto eastbound Highway 92.

According to xwordinfo.com, which tracks these sorts of things, most of her crosswords appear on Monday (71), with most of the rest (16) appearing on Tuesday. Jean found today's crossword to be fairly straightforward: Mike found it a bit of a challenge, especially in the vicinity of 9D, White wine named for the European river valley where it's produced, MOSELLE, as the only thing he is less familiar with than white wine is European river valleys.

Reveal host Al Letson talks with leading academics and journalists to take the temperature of American democracy: What did we expect from the midterms, what did we get, and what does that mean for 2024? Reveal's Ese Olumhense and Mother Jones senior reporter Ari Berman discuss how gerrymandering, abortion rights, election denial and fear of voting crimes played out in contentious states like Arizona, Wisconsin and Florida. Next, Andrea Bernstein and Ilya Marritz, who report on threats to democracy for ProPublica and are hosts of the podcast WIll Be Wild, join Letson to discuss how the violence and disinformation that sparked the Jan. 6 insurrection continues to shape the country's political landscape. The reporters tell the story of how the Department of Homeland Security backed off efforts to identify and combat false information after Republican pundits and politicians accused the Biden administration of stomping on the free speech rights of anyone who disagrees with them. Then, reporter Jessica Pishko delves into the world of a group called the constitutional sheriffs. This association of rogue sheriffs claims to be the highest law in the land and has increasingly come to see themselves as election police. Pishko attends a meeting in Arizona where Richard Mack, a leader of the movement who has also been involved with the far-right Oath Keepers, extols the rights of sheriffs to get involved in monitoring elections. In recent years, this right-wing group has grown from a fringe organization to one with national power and prominence. Pishko discusses the chilling effect these sheriffs have on voting. In his time as president, Donald Trump bucked the norms and mixed presidential duties with personal business, refused to release his tax returns and pardoned his political allies.This week, he announced he's running for president again in 2024. Letson speaks with two lawyers who have spent the past two years identifying how to rein in presidential power and close loopholes Trump exposed: Bob Bauer, former White House counsel for President Barack Obama, and Jack Goldsmith, former assistant attorney general in President George W. Bush's Office of Legal Counsel. They're also co-authors of the 2020 book “After Trump: Reconstructing the Presidency.” Support Reveal's journalism at Revealnews.org/donatenow Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get the scoop on new episodes at Revealnews.org/newsletter Connect with us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram

Al Letson and Jonathan Jones travel to Nashville, Tennessee, to interview the doctor who conducted it. Her findings helped lead the grand jury to determine Johnson's death was an accidental shooting. However, Letson and Jones share another report that raises doubts about her original conclusions.

Billey Joe Johnson Jr. was a high school football star headed for the big time. Then, early one morning in 2008, the Black teenager died during a traffic stop with a White deputy. His family's been searching for answers ever since. Ten years ago, Reveal host Al Letson traveled to Lucedale, Mississippi, to report on the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. While there, locals told him there was another story he should be looking into: Johnson's suspicious death. During a traffic stop with a White deputy, police say Johnson died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. But for Johnson's family, that explanation never made sense. In the first episode of this seven-part series, Letson returns to Mississippi with reporter Jonathan Jones to explore what happened to Johnson – and what justice means in a place haunted by its history.
