Does surrendering to God feel like losing control?Angie and Susie dive into James 4:7 to challenge the idea that submission is a sign of weakness. In reality, true strength comes not from gripping tighter—but from letting go. Join them as they uncover how surrendering to God empowers us to stand firm, resist the enemy, and walk boldly in the freedom of His authority.James 4:7 (NIV)“Submit yourselves, then, to God.

Stratford Point Light Station in 2015, photo by Jeremy D'Entremont David Wright Stratford, Connecticut, was an active port in coastal trade, shipbuilding and oystering in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. To mark the entrance to the harbor, the first Stratford Point Lighthouse was built on the west side of the dangerous mouth of the Housatonic River in 1822. The present tower, 35 feet tall, was built along with a new keeper's house in 1881. Theodore of "Theed" Judson was keeper from 1880 to 1921. In his more than 40 years at Stratford Point, Judson frequently made the local newspapers with sightings of sea monsters and mermaids. The light station is still owned by the Coast Guard, but the town of Stratford holds occasional open houses for the public. Our guest in this episode, David Wright, is the Stratford town historian. He gives walking tours and writes articles about local history. When the lighthouse is open, David takes on the identity of Keeper Theodore Judson while his wife portrays the keeper's wife, Kate.
John Jamingo, Deuce, and Joe reunite for a wide-ranging, offbeat conversation brimming with personal stories, hot takes, and unscripted laughs. The episode opens with a humorous tribute to comedian Ruth Buzzi and a discussion of classic TV nostalgia, including reflections on the cast of “Gilligan's Island.” The hosts swap tales about their love–or lack thereof–for cats and dogs, segueing into the quirks of pet ownership and the personalities of different animals.Podcast production and technical mishaps get plenty of airtime, with John recounting behind-the-scenes challenges and bantering with Deuce about control freak tendencies and the chaos of remote recording setups. The trio delves into wild road rage stories, famously spotlighting a viral incident involving a woman defecating on a car during a Delaware County traffic altercation.They pivot to talking about age-gap relationships, the dynamics of dating as older men, and the absurdities of gold-digging rumors. The hosts also debate cooking preferences—from ketchup on tacos to pineapple on pizza—and share regional food opinions. Riffs on generational divides, woke culture, energy policy, and nostalgia for classic cartoons round out the episode, punctuated by playful jabs and self-deprecating humor.Episode's topics:The “death” and legacy of comedian Ruth Buzzi; hoaxes and classic TV references Reminiscing about “Gilligan's Island,” Alan Hale Jr., and 1970s-80s television Discussion of pet ownership—cats vs. dogs, poodle stories, and animal personalities Podcast production mishaps: recording technology frustrations, remote setups, and microphone placement Behind-the-scenes podcast editing, co-hosts' quirks, and “control freak” tendencies Viral Delco road rage incident: a woman defecating on another woman's car Obituaries and the (dark) humor in how death is announced Age, dating, and relationships: age gap couples, gold diggers, and personal dating “boundaries” Debates over food traditions: ketchup on tacos, pineapple on pizza, mayo and ketchup on cheesesteaks Fast food memories: Taco Bell, Burger King, Jack in the Box tacos Musings on wokeness, cancel culture, generational differences, and social media Electric cars, energy policy, and the politics of “going green” Prescription drug frustrations, bureaucracy, and healthcare gripes Reflections on classic cartoons: “Popeye,” “The Flintstones,” “Jane Jetson,” and “South Park” Podcast community shout-outs and changing trends in indie podcasting Lighthearted banter, sound board gags, and recurring in-jokes among the hostsSocial Media Links:Website: https://www.podpage.com/the-brand-x-podcast/ Twitter: https://x.com/brandxpod Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-7690921Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brandxpodcast Everybody Wang Chung Video (Check Out The Bass Player) https://youtu.be/BoXu6QmxpJE?si=KxkovZNRZq7QyaaaSouth Park Soulless Gingers: https://youtu.be/-nA54LxibLI?si=xzZru_FD_HHjRAiy

Prudence Island Lighthouse, photo by Jeremy D'Entremont Prudence Island, about seven miles long, is the third largest island in Rhode Island's Narragansett Bay. It was determined around 1850 that a lighthouse was needed to guide vessels passing between Sandy Point, at the island's easternmost extremity, and Aquidneck Island, about a mile to the east. Instead of building a new lighthouse, a disused one at Goat Island in Newport was moved to Prudence Island. Originally built at Goat Island in 1842, the lighthouse still stands at Sandy Point and is the oldest free-standing lighthouse in the state. The granite stairs inside Prudence Island Lighthouse The Prudence Conservancy, a nonprofit organization, was involved with the upkeep of the lighthouse and its grounds since the late 1980s. The Coast Guard granted a license to the group in 2001, and in 2024, the property was conveyed to the Prudence Conservancy under the guidelines of the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act. Interviewed in this episode are Prudence Island Historian Joe Bains, and Ray Jenness, who is the chairman of the Prudence Conservancy. The interview was recorded at the Prudence Island Historical Museum. The wife and son of Keeper George Gustavus, along with three other people, lost their lives when the keeper's house at Prudence Island was destroyed in the Hurricane of 1938.

There are three segments in this episode. The first recaps a recent virtual conference that the USLHS held in late March. The conference celebrated the 25th anniversary of the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act of 2000, with presenters and attendees sharing their stories of lighthouse stewardship and preservation. Next is an abridged version of a conversation with John Potvin first heard in November 2019. John is the manager for the Chesapeake Chapter of USLHS of Thomas Point Shoal Lighthouse in Chesapeake Bay, the only surviving cottage-style screwpile lighthouse in the country still in its original location. Following that is a chat with Natasha Nash Dixon. Natasha's new children's book, “Drew's Grand Advenure,” is based on a true tale about the beloved mascot of Thomas Point Shoal Lighthouse.

What Fresh Hell: Laughing in the Face of Motherhood | Parenting Tips From Funny Moms
This month's Deep Dive series is all about how much fun we are—or aren't—having while raising our kids. Listen to the whole playlist on Spotify. We all fall into the trap of thinking that every day with our kids has to contain a “snow globe moment,” a social media-worthy image of perfect joy for our entire family. And even if part of us knows that's not realistic, another part of us thinks that it's all supposed to be fun. That there must be something wrong with us if we don't love every single moment of our chaotic lives with little ones. But once we kick that shame to the curb, there really are ways to make our lives as parents more fun and lighthearted. Even on a regular Tuesday. In this episode, we discuss: How we can be lighthearted, even when things aren't fun How we can have fun even when things aren't easy How we can have fun even when our kids definitely aren't Our basic takeaway: parenting definitely gets a little more fun as our kids get a little bit easier… and by “easier,” we mean “not throwing themselves into mortal danger every ninety seconds because they don't know any better.” The first step to having more fun may simply be to wish that it were so. As motivational speaker Danielle LaPorte explains: “Knowing how you want to feel is the most potent form of clarity you can have.” We love the sponsors that make this show possible!

The strait between Bristol and Portsmouth, Rhode Island, was busy in the early 1800s, with all manner of vessels passing between Narragansett Bay to the west and Mount Hope Bay to the east. A lighthouse was built on the Bristol side in 1855, with a small brick dwelling and a lighthouse tower attached to its southern end. The lighthouse's days as an aid to navigation ended with the construction of the Mount Hope Bridge in 1929, almost directly over the lighthouse. The lantern was removed and the property passed into private ownership. Bristol Ferry Lighthouse, photo by Jeremy D'Entremont Simon and Laura Thomas Owners Carol and Bob Lundin restored the building and had a new lantern room fabricated and installed in the 1990s. Today, the lighthouse is owned by Simon and Laura Thomas and managed as an inn, with bookings available through AirbnB and Vrbo. Simon and Laura are interviewed in this episode along with Rhode Island marine photographer Matthew Cohen. Judianne Point co-hosts.

This is an edited version of the second part of an interview with Dave and Lynn Waller, owners of Graves Lighthouse in outer Boston Harbor, a classic wave-swept granite tower on a barren, rocky ledge. The interview was first heard in May 2020 in episode 61. L to R: Bob Trapani Jr., Dave Waller, and Light Hearted host Jeremy D'Entremont in 2020 Dave Waller built this first-order Fresnel lens in his Malden, MA, home. One of the subjects discussed is the “Franklens” created by Dave Waller and friends — a first-order Fresnel lens made of spare panels from various Chance Brothers lenses. Also discussed are the observation of wildlife near Graves Ledge, the experience of changing weather and storms at such a dramatic location, the conversion of the oil house into living space, the many challenges of restoration in a place that's often inaccessible, and the Wallers' partnership with well-known Boston philanthropist Bobby Sager. Taking part in the interview along with Light Hearted host Jeremy D'Entremont is Bob Trapani, Jr., executive director of the American Lighthouse Foundation. Graves Light, photo by Jeremy D'Entremont

Neil Hurley Neil Hurley's interest in Florida lighthouses goes back to the mid-1980s. He was serving as a staff officer for the Seventh Coast Guard s District Aids to Navigation Branch, and he often had to answer questions about lighthouses in Florida. Neil decided to make Florida lighthouse history his off-duty hobby. That led to countless hours of research, and he's been the historian for the Florida Lighthouse Association since it was founded. His books include Florida's Lighthouses in the Civil War, An Illustrated History of Cape Florida Lighthouse, and Lighthouses of the Dry Tortugas: An Illustrated History, and he was co-author of the first edition of The Florida Lighthouse Trail. The articles he's written include several for the U.S. Lighthouse Society's quarterly journal, the Keeper's Log. Neil retired as a commander from the Coast Guard, and today he continues to work in the defense industry. This is episode is co-hosted by Ralph Krugler, historian for Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse and historical archivist for the U.S. Lighthouse Society.

This is an edited version of an interview that was first heard in episode 60 in May 2020. The guest is Dave Waller, the owner of Graves Light in Boston Harbor. This is part one of two parts. Graves Light in June 2001, photo by Jeremy D'Entremont Dave Waller The ledges in outer Boston Harbor called the Graves – about 10 acres in all – have been home to a lighthouse since 1905. The 113-foot tower is made of granite, and a first-order Fresnel lens was installed in the lantern. After the light's automation in 1976, weather and vandalism took its toll. Under the guidelines of the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act, the lighthouse was sold in a government auction in September 2013 to businessman David Waller. Another partner for the preservation of Graves Light is the well-known Boston philanthropist Bobby Sager. Dave Waller owns a video special effects company headquartered on Newbury Street in Boston, and he also collects and restores old neon signs. He and his wife, Lynn, a graphic designer, live in a restored fire station in the Boston suburb of Malden.

Barcelona Light Station, photo by Mike and Carol McKinney In 1828, Congress appropriated five thousand dollars to construct a lighthouse in Barcelona Harbor on Lake Erie in New York. The harbor had just been designated an official port of entry when the lighthouse was built. In the early 1800s, lumber, salt, flour, and fish were shipped to and from the port. The lighthouse is a conical stone tower, 40 feet tall. It's believed to be the very first natural gas-powered lighthouse in the world. Barcelona Lighthouse is undergoing a major restoration (New York State Parks) Marla Bingham-Melcher The light was discontinued as an aid to navigation in 1859, and the property was transferred to New York State Parks in 2007. There's a museum in the keeper's house, and currently there's a major project in progress that includes the rehabilitation of the lighthouse tower. Our guest is Marla Bingham-Melcher, the manager of the five state parks in Chautauqua County, including Barcelona Lighthouse. This episode is co-hosted by Averie Shaughnessy-Comfort, executive director of Lake Erie Lights of Pennsylvania.

Fred Mikkelsen This is an edited version of an interview first heard in episode 43 in January 2020. Conimicut Lighthouse is a cast-iron caisson structure built in 1883 to mark a dangerous shoal at the mouth of the Providence River. 18-year-old Coast Guardsman Frederick Mikkelsen was assigned to the station in 1958. One of his most memorable experiences in his three years at the lighthouse was a 1960 hurricane. Shortly after Fred Mikkelsen left, Conimicut became one of the last lighthouses in the nation to be converted to electricity. The light was automated and the resident keepers were reassigned in 1963. The lighthouse is owned today by the City of Warwick, RI, and it has recently been restored. Conimicut Lighthouse, photo by Jeremy D'Entremont

This is a re-edited version of an interview that was first heard on "Light Hearted" in 2019. Jim Pope was a keeper at rugged Whaleback Lighthouse in Maine from 1960 to '62, and the light was automated and de-staffed a short time later. Whaleback is a ledge on the northeast side of the entrance to the Piscataqua River, on the approach to the harbor of Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The 70-foot granite lighthouse tower was built in 1872. The keepers lived inside the tower itself. Whaleback Lighthouse, photo by Jeremy D'Entremont Jim Pope was born in Scarborough, Maine, in 1938. After graduation from Traip Academy in Kittery he began a lifelong career on the water. After his time in the Coast Guard, he worked as a tugboat captain for Moran Towing for more than 25 years. He lived for many years in Eliot, Maine, near Kittery, and was fondly known as the Pope of Elliot.
