In the summer of 1993, an up-and-coming Brooklyn hip-hop trio collaborated with an NBA rookie sensation to create a Bugs Bunny-inspired track that cracked the Top 40. In a world of athletes releasing embarrassing novelty singles, “What's Up Doc? (Can We Rock?)” had people far and wide asking if Shaq was as diesel on the mic as he was on the court. It was the undeniable track from FU-Schnickens, however, that laid the groundwork for Shaq's “alidocious” bars. This week, we're joined by CLASSIC One Hit Thunder guest Matt DiStefano to discuss the short-lived career of FU-Schnickens, and to figure out if there was more to them than this “Looney Tune”.

In this #amwriting podcast Write Big session, Jennie Nash talks with author Mary Laura Philpott about the surprising choice she made after her acclaimed book Bomb Shelter—to stop writing on purpose. Mary Laura shares how, after pouring everything into that project, her gut told her she didn't need to rush into another, despite the pressure of “what's next?” from the industry and readers. This conversation reframes writing big not as chasing ambition, but as honoring your gut and giving your whole heart to whatever season you're in—even if that means not writing at all.TRANSCRIPT BELOW!THINGS MENTIONED IN THIS PODCAST:* Mary Laura Philpott's website* Bomb Shelter* The New York Times ReviewSPONSORSHIP MESSAGEHey, it's Jenny Nash, and if you've been writing a new book through the month of November and wondering if it's any good, this might be the perfect time to work with an Author Accelerator certified book coach to get a professional gut check.

This is a Write Big Session, where I'm bringing you short episodes about the mindset shifts that help you stop playing small and write like it matters. Today, I'm talking to Mary Laura Philpott about the idea of trusting your gut. This is a critical component to writing big, and I asked Mary Laura to come speak to us because a very interesting thing happened to her after the publication of her second book, Bomb Shelter: Love, Time, and Other Explosives. This book is so good. It's a book about being a parent and a daughter and a spouse and a person in the world. And what happened was that she stopped writing—on purpose. Her gut told her, “I'm done now.” And it struck me that if we could understand what makes a successful writer choose not to write; maybe we could understand better what makes us each choose to write big. So welcome, Mary Laura.Mary Laura PhilpottHello, friend. Thanks for having me.Jennie NashAh, I'm so excited to have this conversation. I've been wanting to have it for a very long time.Mary Laura PhilpottOh, good.Jennie NashSo thanks for joining us. This is maybe your second, third, fourth time on the Hashtag AmWriting Podcast—you're a fan favorite. So welcome back. To set this conversation up, I'm going to read a little snippet from The New York Times review of Bomb Shelter, which was written by Judith Warner, and in which she called your book a “master work.” I'm going to read the end of her review, because it really sets up this question that we're going to be talking about.So she writes: “I want to say something negative about this book. To be this positive is, I fear, to sound like a nitwit. So to nitpick—there's some unevenness to the quality of the sentences in the final chapter—but there's no fun in pointing that out. Philpott already knows. I'm telling this story now in present tense. She writes, ‘I'm still in it, not yet able to shape it from the future's perspective. The story is still being written, and that's all right. The only problem is having to wait to read what comes next.'”So—you wrote this book, which was your second book…Mary Laura PhilpottSecond book of this type—yes, kind of second, second memoir.Jennie NashSecond book of this type. And you get this beyond rave review in The New York Times by this luminary reviewer, in which she says, “I can't wait to see what you write next.” And here we sit some years later, in which the answer is—there is nothing next. So can you talk about that? Can you talk about how you—first of all, what that feels like?Mary Laura PhilpottYeah, it's—I mean, you know this feeling of before a book is even on shelves, people are already asking, “So what's next? Like, what are you working on?” You know? And then you go on tour, and every question everywhere is, “So what are you working on now?” There's this relentless, kind of—this churning wheel of productivity behind it all. And so I'm used to that, and I was used to that feeling of, okay, the book is out, people are talking about it, but I need to be working on something next, because that's always been how it is. But I was tired. That was a really—I love that review so much, and I love the way this book was received—but it was a really emotional book to write, and it was a really emotional book to tour with and go out and talk about for several weeks on end. And so when I came back home, I was like, you know, I get to decide how this little hamster wheel of productivity goes—and I have decided I need a break, and I'm going to focus on, you know—I had, like, one or two years left with my kids at home before they left the nest. I was like, I'm just going to be at home. I'm going to focus inward. I'm just going to be kind of living life on my own terms. And I did that for about a year—and then another year—and now it's been... let's see... here we are in 2025... It's been three years since that book came out. I have not written another book, and I have never been so calm about not being in the middle of writing another book. It just feels like I don't have something I urgently need to say.Jennie NashYeah.Mary Laura PhilpottAnd I also feel—there's something rebellious in the beginning about saying, “I'm not going to do it.” But once the rebellion kind of burns off and you realize, actually, I don't owe anyone anything—like, I'm not under contract for another book. I had the sort of miraculous timing of my editor for Bomb Shelter and for I Miss You When I Blink retiring right after Bomb Shelter came out, so I don't even have an editor breathing down my neck going, “Come on, what's your next thing?” So I've been experimenting with saying I'm retired. When people ask me, like, “What are you working on?” I say, “I might be retired. I don't know if I am. It might be temporary. It might be—this might be like Ross and Rachel: are we on a break, or are we broken up? I don't know.” But I am so calm and happy with the decision not to be getting up every day and sitting at my desk. It's like a cord has been cut in me—and I don't feel any guilt about it.Jennie NashSo you said you feel that you don't have anything to say. When you started these books and your other books and projects, did you feel that?Mary Laura PhilpottAlways! Yes. Like, I—for myself and for other people—like, I need to get this on paper. There's that therapeutic part of writing: I need to get this on paper and organize it so that I can understand what it is I think. That's not enough of a reason to go through the misery of publishing a book, but it's something. And then there's the other part—where you, or for me, where once I figure out what it is that I'm thinking as I'm putting it on paper, I realize there are other people who may feel this way, and translating it into words is a gift. And it's something that I want to be able to do for readers, and I want to enter into that two-way conversation with my words and my readers. And it's not that I don't have anything interesting to talk about right now—it's just that I don't have anything keeping me up at night, begging to be translated and, therefore, you know, urging me to the page. I've started and stopped little—not books, but like other little projects here and there—where I'm like, oh, maybe I want to play around with this idea. And then I put them down, and I just feel... it's honestly the first time in my life I have felt no guilt about not working on the thing that everyone thinks I should be working on. And it's so weird because other people seem to have really strong feelings about it.Jennie NashI was going to say, what are people's reactions when you say, “I might be retired”?Mary Laura PhilpottThe other day—okay, so I'm going to tell you about this event I went to the other day. It was a book event for a woman who we all know, who's pretty well known, and this is her—I don't know—fourth or fifth or sixth book and it's very much anticipated by its readers. And she's exactly my age—she's 51—and when I went to this event, I ran into a lot of other book people who I know, and of course, the first question everyone asks: “What are you working on?” So I decided to test out my line, and I would say, “I think I might be retired.” The vehemence with which people go, “No, you're not! Like, shut up!”—I got told “Shut up” so many times. Like, what? Why? Why do people have this strong reaction? But then—and then, you know, I'm such a people pleaser that if enough people say, “Shut up. No, you're not,” I start to question myself. I'm like, maybe I should try? I don't know. I don't want to disappoint everybody. But then we sat down for the discussion part of this event, and someone in the audience asked this fellow writer, “Where do you want to be in ten years? Look ahead ten years and tell us what you see.” And she said, “In ten years, I will be in my early sixties, and I think by then I'd like to hang it up and live life just for me.” And I felt so viscerally and instantly—oh, no, I do not want to wait ten years. I wanted to yell out, “You don't have to wait till then!” But, you know, to each her own—and she may have ten years more of wanting to be out and about and hustling and doing this.Jennie NashYeah, yeah. So it sounds like you wouldn't characterize what you're feeling as burnout. It's not—it's not like, “Oh, I burned out, and I'll get back to it someday.” It feels really as if you arrived at a different place.Mary Laura PhilpottIt feels like—yes, it feels more like closure than like burnout. And that has changed. That feeling has changed over the last two to three years. In the beginning, it did feel like burnout—like, when I came home from that book tour, I was wrung out. I mean, I was thrilled, it was—it was amazing—but I was tired. And I thought—I remember you and I talking about this and saying, “You know what? I've just—I left it all on the field. I'm exhausted, and I need to take a year-long nap.” And then, over time, it became more of an “Okay, I'm not burned out. I actually feel fine. I'm just taking a break.” And I've talked to—you and I have a good friend in common, Laura Vanderkam, who writes a lot about productivity, and she and I had a conversation once where I was like, “I think what this is, is a break. Just—I'm going to take a pause, and I'll decide when I'm done pausing. When I'm done pausing.” And that may be what it is. I do tend to live life kind of cyclically, so I might cycle back into “Now I want to do this,” or “Now I've written that.” But right now it feels like this really peaceful closure. And even if I do write something again—which, come on, I mean, I probably will at some point—the part that feels closed is the hustle part. The part that—a lot of us don't actually really enjoy that much—which is not the writing of the book or the, you know, nice conversations with the readers, but the part where it's like, okay, you've got to put together this tour schedule, and you've got to answer all these questions for these promotional essays, and—and now you've got to—you know, this promotional machine that—“Go get your photo taken again.” I'm so sick of my face...Multiple Speakers[Both laughing]Jennie NashRight?! It's the performing aspect of being a writer.Mary Laura PhilpottYeah.Jennie NashDid—does any of this have to do with the fact that Bomb Shelter...? I know we talked about it at one point—that you felt, while you were writing it, that this—that it was good. Like, you knew that your vision was matching the execution. And then the world reflected back to you that yes, it is good—you did do that, and at a really high level. Particularly that one. There were a lot of reviews like that, but that sort of was the shining—you know, shining star. Was there a—do you think that the fact that you wrote the book—you know, we're always trying to write the book that we envision, and we don't always get there—and it feels like you got there. Does that have to do with this feeling, do you think?Mary Laura PhilpottMaybe—because there—I mean, you're right, there is almost always a gap between—before we write the thing—this wonderful, amorphous idea in our head where it's like, “This is just a shining galaxy of thoughts,” and then you get it on paper, and its like, “Oops, I killed it. I flattened it.” And there's always this gap between the two. And with Bomb Shelter, I really did—it has the smallest possible gap of anything I've ever written. And so maybe, you know, maybe that is part of it—that I feel like, what else am I waiting for? Like, what else could I want to do? If you get down to the pure reason of why we do this and what draws you to the page—and also the part of my personality that is, for better or for worse, kind of Type A and achievement-driven—this is... maybe I got to that point where I was like, well, I got the A-plus-plus-plus. What else could I try to get? I don't think that's entirely it, because it's not the whole reason that I write. I don't think it's like, “I got the A-plus-plus-plus, now there's nothing left to say.” When there's something to say, I'll say it. But I do—I think you're right that that's part of it.Jennie NashAnd the idea of writing for other people—that there's the writing, and then there's the connecting with other people, knowing that you're doing it for other people, then being out there in the world with those people— Is there a world in which you would write something that doesn't go into the world? Or is that not... I feel like that's something I would not be able to do at this point in my— But I'm so wired and attuned to writing for consumption.Mary Laura PhilpottYeah.Jennie NashI mean, I write for myself. Of course I write the things I want to write—you know, all those things are true—and, yes, for other people.Mary Laura PhilpottYes. Well—and I tend to be similar to you in that regard. And there's so much—you know, we talked a couple minutes ago about the difference between the therapeutic reasons why you start writing and then the actual hard, somewhat miserable work of getting it from the therapeutic version to something that is publishable. And that takes such discipline and real care for the art of it—of turning this thing that was helpful for your own brain into a piece of art that is worth someone investing in and putting out there in the world. I think—I do—I mean, in a way, I kind of write all the time, and you are similar to me in this. Like, we email, we—you know, we're very communicative people, so the writing part of my brain is doing something all the time. And I have started a few little weird projects here and there where I'm like, “Oh, I've had an idea for this,” and I'll, you know, write a few pages and then just kind of set it aside—without feeling like I've got to go attack it with that discipline that turns it into something.Jennie NashYeah.Mary Laura PhilpottAnd maybe that's the part of my brain that's just tired—that's like, I'm still tired. And when I am untired, I will go back and pull those things out and play with them some more. I don't know.Jennie NashYeah, yeah. Well, I love your characterization of that, because I have been talking about this—this newish idea—or I have newish words around this idea of calling it “Write Big”. And people often, I think rightly so, mistake that for big ambition, big goals, big wins, big success, big money—you know, all those things. And it's not that at all, actually. It's the doing the thing with your whole heart.Mary Laura PhilpottYes!Jennie NashNo matter what the thing is.Mary Laura PhilpottAnd not holding back.Jennie NashAnd what you're saying is that the cost of that for you—you're not going to do something. It's not that. And the cost of that for you is too high.Mary Laura PhilpottAt the moment it is. At the moment, when I think about—when I look around at the life I'm in—and this is professionally and personally—there's this interesting confluence, which is, I'm in my... I've just finished my first year of empty nesting. So this has been the first year of my life since I, you know, first had a baby, where my days do not in any way revolve around a school schedule, a nap schedule, a feeding schedule, etc. And then I did maybe the dumbest thing ever—and I adopted a puppy, who does have feeding and nap and all this other stuff. And so all my displaced maternal energy has now been funneled into this puppy, whom I absolutely love—but he is a wild and crazy ‘Looney Tune'. And when I look at the way my days look right now—which is the get up, make my coffee, walk the puppy, feed the puppy, you know, teach the puppy how to sit—and I think, do I feel like trading that right now for getting a dog sitter and going into my office and writing for multiple hours? I don't. I don't want to trade that right now. I may change—I fully reserve the right to change my mind and be like those, you know, sports players who are like, “I'm retired,” and then the next season, they're like, “I'm out of retirement.” Maybe I'll come out of retirement. But right now, what I want to do is feed my puppy, teach my puppy, be available on a moment's notice. If a kid says, “Hey, I was the understudy for this play, but I got called up to be in a performance this weekend,” I want to be able to jump on a plane and go and not have other commitments. I'm enjoying that. And I do fully recognize—I should give this disclaimer—that this is a very privileged situation I am in. My income from books is not what paid our mortgage. I'm married. I have a spouse with a job that has health insurance, you know, so I'm able to make decisions. And I do feel the financial consequences of these decisions. Like, it's not a small deal for me to be like, “I'm not going to write another book,” because that would have been important income—but it's not the only income in our house. So I'm not—if I had still young children coming up, lots of tuitions to pay, mouths to feed—this might not be so easy for me to just be like, “I want to play with my puppy.”Jennie NashRight, right. Well—the idea we started with, of writing big, is trusting your gut. Not writing is trusting your gut. All of this starts and ends with: what do we think, what do we feel, what do we want to say?Mary Laura PhilpottYeah.Jennie NashThose are such hard things to know, and it feels like you're just really tuned into that right now. And you talked at the very beginning—you said that it feels peaceful. Can you just maybe, to end our conversation, describe that feeling? Because that, I think, is what we all are looking for with our work—whether we're doing it or not doing it—is peace around it.Mary Laura PhilpottYeah. I think a big part of the peace—and I wish I had found this earlier, when I did still have things to say and I was writing—because I think it could have removed a lot of distraction for me in writing big, the way you say—is tuning out other people's voices. And if you are the type of person, as I am, who—like, when the Olympics are on TV and I see the person doing the high jump, I'm like, “I bet I could do that if I went and—” like, which obviously I cannot. But I have that part of my brain that's like, “Should I try to do everything I'm capable of doing? Like, I can't. I can't leave anything undone. I should. I should go try to be the best at everything I could ever be the best at.” Because, you know, other people expect me to work hard and produce things. And to be able to tune out that inner voice and other people's voices—those voices that equate productivity with worth—and, you know, “If people aren't talking about the new thing you've done, then how do you even prove you're worth the air you breathe?” Disconnecting from those voices is what led to the peace. And I think I was beginning to disconnect from that while I was writing Bomb Shelter. I think that's why that book worked, in some ways—because I really—I mean, remember, I wrote it during the pandemic. I wrote it when I was stuck at home. I had less contact with the outside world than ever before. We did not know what book publishing was going to look like. We did not know if there would ever be another book tour. So I really did write that book in a bubble of having as little outside input as possible. So I think that's the—maybe, if there's any key to peace—it's tuning out voices that you just don't need.Jennie NashI love that. I love that so much. And I think we will end our conversation there, because it's so profound and it's so good.Mary Laura PhilpottThank you for having me.Jennie NashWell, for our listeners—until next time, stop playing small and write like it matters.NarratorThe Hashtag AmWriting Podcast is produced by Andrew Perrella.

John 11:25-44,Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, 26 and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?” 27 She said to him, “Yes, Lord; I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming into the world.” When she had said this, she went and called her sister Mary, saying in private, “The Teacher is here and is calling for you.” 29 And when she heard it, she rose quickly and went to him. 30 Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha had met him. 31 When the Jews who were with her in the house, consoling her, saw Mary rise quickly and go out, they followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep there. 32 Now when Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” 33 When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come with her also weeping, he was deeply moved[a] in his spirit and greatly troubled. 34 And he said, “Where have you laid him?” They said to him, “Lord, come and see.” 35 Jesus wept. 36 So the Jews said, “See how he loved him!” 37 But some of them said, “Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man also have kept this man from dying?”38 Then Jesus, deeply moved again, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it. 39 Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, “Lord, by this time there will be an odor, for he has been dead four days.” 40 Jesus said to her, “Did I not tell you that if you believed you would see the glory of God?” 41 So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. 42 I knew that you always hear me, but I said this on account of the people standing around, that they may believe that you sent me.” 43 When he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out.” 44 The man who had died came out, his hands and feet bound with linen strips, and his face wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Unbind him, and let him go.”The year 1912 gave us two unforgettable things: the sinking of the Titanic and the invention of Oreo cookie — one was a tragedy, one a triumph, and we're still fascinated by both today.But something else important that happened in 1912 that we probably don't think about much was the publication of an essay by the theologian B. B. Warfield. The essay is entitled, “The Emotional Life of our Lord” — and it's about the various emotions we see Jesus express in the Gospels.What makes the essay so amazing is that there had never really been a study like this before, and Warfield wrote it during the heyday of theological liberalism. When a lot of modern scholars were denying the deity of Christ, Warfield affirmed the deity of Christ and wrote this essay to defend the humanity of Christ.And the reason this essay is relevant to our passage today is that Warfield gives a lot of attention to John 11 — because of the emotions we just read about in verses 33–38!Now throughout each of the four Gospels we see the emotional life of Jesus, but there's no other place where we see such strong emotions compounded in one scene. Warfield writes, “What John does [here in Chapter 11] is uncover to us the heart of Jesus as he wins for us our salvation.” And I think that's right. Remember John was there! He saw this happen. And led by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, he has written this to uncover the heart of Jesus for us, which means it's worthy of our focus this morning. There are two questions we should ask: What do we learn here about Jesus's heart? What difference does it make in our lives?The goal of the sermon is to answer those two questions: I want to show you something amazing about the heart of Jesus, and then I wanna talk about why it matters.Those are the two parts, and Part One can be titled “Uncovering the Heart of Jesus.”1. Uncovering the Heart of JesusWe're gonna pick up here in verse 28, and my goal is for us to build, in our minds, the right image of Jesus in this scene.Last week we saw the dialogue between Jesus and Martha, and this week it's between Jesus and Mary.After Martha's faith confession of Jesus in verse 27, she goes back to their home in Bethany to get Mary. And I want you to try to imagine this…Remember this is just four days after the death of Lazarus, and so it's a crowded house of friends and family grieving with them. Martha walks into the full house and somehow in private she tells Mary that Jesus wants to see her. She most likely whispered this to Mary, because people are all around her. She said, “Mary, the Teacher is here and he's calling for you.”And Mary, right away, jumps up and goes to meet Jesus, and everybody is there, seeing her do this, and they assume she must be going to the tomb. So they leave the house and follow her.So picture Mary walking to meet Jesus, and there's this entourage of grieving people following behind her. She gets to Jesus in verse 32, and she falls down at Jesus's feet and she says, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” Where have we heard that before? This is the same thing Martha said in verse 21.And again, I don't think this is a rebuke. Mary is just stating a fact, and she does it here bowed down at Jesus's feet — which is not a posture of disrespect — this is homage. She's broken before her teacher. She's been following him, learning from him, trusting him, and she's honest with him.And it's important we get this scene right in our minds because before John tells us how Jesus responds, he tells us what Jesus sees. We need to see it too.Verse 33 starts by saying that Jesus saw Mary weeping, down at this feet, and he saw this crowd of friends and family around her also weeping. And that word for “weeping” means wailing. This is audible, expressive grief. There's no ‘balled fists mad' at Jesus here. It's heartache. Now look what John says Jesus did …And this is one we need to see. I want to make sure everybody's with me. Find verse 33 — Chapter 11, verse 33.After Jesus sees this heartache around him, Verse 33,“…he was deeply moved in his spirit and greatly troubled.”Jesus Is AngryNow that word “deeply moved” — that's how the English Standard Version and the New International Version translates it. But if you have the ESV, you might notice there's a little footnote marker, and the footnote says that this word could also be translated “indignant.” Or to be outraged. That's because in nearly every other place this word is used, that's what it means. Outside the New Testament this Greek word is used to refer to the snorting of horses, and when it's applied to humans it means expressing anger. This is where I think cartoons could actually help us.In old-school cartoons — like the Looney Tunes — it was really clear when the characters would get angry. Their faces would turn red and steam would blow out of their nostrils. That's anger.And the point is that the audience not miss the emotion!That's the point here in the use of this word.The New Living Translation actually nails it. They translate it “a deep anger welled up within him.” That's what the word means. Now why does it matter? Well, the word is repeated in verse 38. Look down at verse 38:“Then Jesus, deeply moved again [deeply angry again], [he] came to the tomb.”So that's twice in this scene that John tells us this. Which means he really doesn't want us to miss it. Jesus is angry here. He's indignant. He's furious. Jesus Is SadBut hold on a minute: before we import our own meaning of anger, we need to see more in this story. We know that whatever kind of anger Jesus has here, it's perfectly compatible with his holiness. Jesus never sinned, so this must be a holy anger. And there are three more words John uses here that fill in the picture. We have to see all of this together if we're going to have the right image.Notice back in verse 33, John tells us that Jesus was “deeply moved/angry in his spirit and greatly troubled.”Jesus being angry “in his spirit” means that he's under control — he's not flying off the handle. He's restrained.But at the same time his emotion is visible. Because notice that word in verse 33, “deeply troubled.” That word literally means to shake. B. B. Warfield describes it as “raging in himself … His inwardly restrained fury produced a profound agitation of his whole being …” Can you picture that?I know we all have ideas of what Jesus might have looked like (there's a few windows around here that could help our imaginations) — But whatever your imagination of Jesus is, it should be able to include everything the Bible says about him, and here we read that Jesus is so enraged that he's shaking. It's like he's about to explode, and says “Where have you laid him?” And then, verse 35, “Jesus wept.”Now who would have expected that?! He's raging in himself, and tears spill out.And when you see tears — when there's weeping — what does that mean? Even young children know what this means. This is part of early childhood development — teachers show children pictures of faces and have them match different emotions to each face. And when the teacher asks, “Which one is sad?”, the kids always point to the face with tears. Because tears means sorrow. Weeping means sadness. And in this story, Jesus is sad. That's what overflowed for everyone to see. Jesus is fuming with fury and he grieves with tears. Fury and grief — anger with sadness — that's the right image of Jesus here. That's what John is showing us.But why is Jesus responding this way? It has to do with what he encounters. First, and most obvious, he is surrounded by grief. He loved Mary and Martha, and Mary and Martha are both grieving; their friends and family with them are grieving, and so, at the most basic level, when Jesus weeps here, he's joining his friends in their grief.The people Jesus loves are sad, and he meets them in their sadness. He's with them. This is true sympathy. Jesus is a good friend. But the anger part — what is that about? This is where we have to look at what's behind the grief.In this story, what has caused the grief?Death.Warfield writes,The spectacle of the distress of Mary and her companions enraged Jesus because it brought poignantly home to his consciousness the evil of death, its unnaturalness, its “violent tyranny” … In Mary's grief, he contemplates the misery of the whole human race and burns with rage against the oppressor of men…It is death that is the object of his wrath, and behind death him who has the power of death and whom he has come into the world to destroy. Tears of sympathy may fill his eyes, but his soul is held by rage…Anger and sadness. Sadness and anger. Jesus Is ZealousIt's really important to see what happens next. What does Jesus do with these emotions?He doesn't sit there on his hands. But he's in motion. He's going somewhere with this. And, at some level, this is expected. Check out verses 36–37. This is how the friends and family respond. They see Jesus's emotion and think, “Wow, he really loved Lazarus!” And then some said, verse 37:“Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man also have kept this man from dying?”That's actually a smart question. It's the logical next question after you realize that Jesus really loved the man who died. It's clear that Jesus loved Lazarus, and we know Jesus can heal, so why didn't Jesus just heal him?I hope you see this is a form of the same question we talked about a month ago in our sermon “An Everyday Theology of Suffering.”The big question we talked about is: How can God be all-powerful and all-good, and suffering still exist?Remember that question? That's the big question. And that's the same thing going on here at a practical level: Jesus is powerful (he can heal), Jesus is good (he loved Lazarus). So … why is Lazarus dead in a tomb and Jesus upset about it?It's a fair question, and look, I think we're all just trying to figure it out. And maybe we think Jesus doesn't really have the kind of power we hoped he has — and if we think that, this next part is for us … Because Jesus, again, is in motion. He's going somewhere. Verse 38:“Then Jesus, deeply angry again, came to the tomb.”Get the image right in your mind. Jesus is walking up to this tomb furious. He's angry. He's sad. And he's zealous.Warfield on this part quotes Calvin. I'll read Calvin to you. He says:Christ does not come to the tomb as an idle spectator, but like a champion who prepares for a battle, and therefore we need not wonder that he again groans, for the violent tyranny of death, which he had to conquer, is placed before his eyes.Do you see it? Jesus approaches the tomb enraged because he is about to face our greatest enemy. And what does he do?He says, “Move the stone.” Martha says, “There's gonna be an odor.”Jesus says, “I'm here to show you the glory of God.”And then he looks up to his Father in heaven and says, verse 41,“Father, I thank you that you have heard me …”See, apparently Jesus has already been praying (and like Martha said in verse 22, whatever Jesus asks from God, God gives it to him). John wants us to know the Father and Son are in this together. Verse 43: “When Jesus had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice …”That word for “cried out” is the same word used later when the crowd will cry out “Crucify him! Crucify him!” The word means to shout. And John also adds “with a loud voice.”You gotta picture this. Jesus is not making a mild suggestion here. This is a loud shout from a heart enraged. He's shouting it loudly in defiance of death.“Lazarus, come out.”Verse 44,“And the man who died came out …”See, they don't even call him ‘Lazarus' anymore — they call him “the man who died” — because he did die, but now he's alive. And Jesus says,“Unbind him, and let him go.” Those words are significant. It means that Jesus, the resurrection and the life, has set the dead man free. Just like Jesus will set us free — not free from the end of our physical lives in this world, but absolutely free from death.Jesus, see, is zealous to save! He's zealous to display the glory of God and accomplish our everlasting good, which are one in the same.In this story, John uncovers the heart of Jesus for us.B. B. Warfield writes,Not in cold unconcern but in flaming wrath against the foe, Jesus smites in our behalf. He has not only saved us from the evils that oppress us; he has felt for and with us in our oppression, and under the impulse of these feelings has wrought out our redemption.Anger against our enemy. Sadness in our grief. Zeal for our salvation.This is the heart of Jesus. What a Savior!2. Why Does It Matter?Now, Part Two: What difference does this make in our lives?I'd like to close with an application. And there's a hundred things we could say! A hundred things we could takeaway. But for now, I'm just gonna focus on one: In discovering Jesus's heart, we discover the kind of hearts we are called to have as his people.We can't be content to only admire him, but we must follow him as our example — especially in our witness. Because Jesus shows us what a holy heart looks like toward a fallen world.We see it in the mingling of his anger and sadness — anger toward the ultimate enemy, and sadness for those who suffer. Indignation for the father of lies, sorrow for those captive to lies.I think the best name for this posture is what we might call brokenhearted boldness. (That's a Piper phrase.) Brokenhearted boldness.And we get the boldness part. That is so vital in our day. It's the courage to call evil evil. To hold our ground on moral clarity. To pray imprecatory psalms against the workers of Satan. And we do it with confidence, in Luther's words:The prince of darkness grim, We tremble not for him;His rage we can endure,For lo! His doom is sure;One little word shall fell him.We mock the devil! We mock death! This is boldness!But it's brokenhearted. Because at the same time that we resolve never to compromise truth, we weep for the world that's lost it. Together with the firmness of our conviction, we have the tenderness of compassion. We're brokenhearted, because Hell is real, and we know people who will go there. And we don't want them to. Brokenhearted boldness.And honestly, it's easier to recognize it than to describe it, so I'll tell you a true story…Just recently I was having lunch with one of our members, a college student. And he was telling me about a class he's in right now, and the professor is off the rails. The professor says there are at least 12 different genders, he openly mocks God in the classroom. And this student is disgusted by it. He told me he's spoken up in class, he's tried to dialogue with other students. He said, “But my classmates are so influenced by this professor. … They're just eating it up. They're all choosing a path of lies.”And as he said this, his eyes filled with tears, his voice began to crack; he had to stop talking and look away … And I thought: “That's it.”That's brokenhearted boldness.That's the heart of Jesus showing up in his people.It's not a witness of swagger. It's not brash or belligerent, not snide or snarky, not cruel or crude, but it's embracing truth with tears — a supreme love for God and a sincere love for people.It's a miracle, church, to have hearts like that! And would that God work this miracle in us! We want to be more like Jesus as we point to him and what he's done. That's what brings us to the Table.The TableBefore we can ever imagine being like Jesus, we have to first be saved by Jesus. And that's what we celebrate here.The heart of Christ is an example we can follow, but the cross of Christ is the unrepeatable accomplishment of our salvation — and we can only receive it.Christian, you know you can only receive it, so would you receive it afresh this morning? If you trust in Jesus, I invite to rest anew in this grace to you, and surrender yourself anew to his transforming work in your life.

Visit https://metaphysicalcoffee.com for coffee that's out of this world! Hear all about it on Edge of Wonder Live with Ben and Rob. One of the most beloved characters in Looney Tunes (or Toons, depending on how you remember it) is Yosemite Sam. His catchphrase has been etched in pop culture with references everywhere. However, there's a problem. He apparently never said his popular catchphrase. In related news and in the quantum realm, physicists now believe that the choices we make in the future do influence our past. Could this be a partial explanation of the Mandela Effect? They are calling it Delayed Choice Quantum Eraser, a mind-bending concept where the act of observing a particle can seemingly reach back in time to change what happened before the observation.

This week on Forgotten Horror 7, the Mikes dive headfirst into one of the goriest, goofiest horror comedies ever made; "Dead Alive" (1992), also known as "Braindead".Both Mike Butler and Mike Field absolutely love this film. It's zany, it's silly, and it's drenched in more blood and guts than you could possibly imagine. Like a deranged "Looney Tunes" short turned up to eleven, "Dead Alive" is a splatter-filled masterpiece that somehow balances absurdity with genuine craftsmanship.The Mikes talk about how Peter Jackson (yes, that Peter Jackson) managed to create a film that's as revolting as it is riotously fun. From lawnmower massacres to undead romance, this is the kind of movie that reminds you just how creative, shocking, and downright weird early 90s horror could be.So grab your mop and your stomach...this one's going to get messy.What's your favorite horror comedy film?

An icon of 20th Century American humor, Jack Benny started as a violinist who would use comedy to save himself from bombing. He ended up as a legendary comedian who used the violin as one part of an indelible comic character. Vain, stingy, and eternally 39, Jack became a hit in the 1930s on the then-new medium of radio. He turned that into a stellar movie and television career -- earning himself three stars on Hollywood's Walk of Fame -- one each for movies, radio, and television. Benny was also part of Hollywood's comedy old guard with friends ranging from Bob Hope and Johnny Carson to Benny's long-time best bud George Burns. Benny is often cited as the Jedi master of comic timing -- he could bring down the house with just a glance, a shrug, or a perfectly timed "Well!"

By the late 30s, Warner Bros finally managed to develop some cartoon stars that would end up standing the test of time, like Porky Pig and Daffy Duck. But their biggest star still hadn't arrived, until this short! Sort of! Tho the rabbit in this short is a far cry from Bugs Bunny as we know him today, it's still an important stepping stone on the way to Bugs' eventual actual debut in 1940. But historical importance aside, is the cartoon any good, so many years later? Listen to find out!

Marcus' What You Know 'Bout That trivia game for Monday October 20th, 2025.
Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay get groovy baby, during Spooky Sleazon as they discuss the indescribable classic, 'Evil Dead II.' Andy kicks it off telling a story about the time he and friends tried to channel their own Ash-like maybe by having chainsaw battles, and it turned out about as well as reading a passage from the Necronomicon. Then the fellas make an argument for this being possibly the greatest film of all-time as it starts as a one man show that blends live action Looney Tunes-style comedy with truly unsettling moments. Body parts get severed, blood pours from every conceivable opening, and it's all held together by the undeniable charisma — and classic Hollywood good looks — of Bruce Campbell. The 'Evil Dead' franchise not only reshaped horror, but the reverberations of its impact changed comic book movies forever as director Sam Raimi would later be given the keys to one of the biggest franchises of all-time. Check out the ep, and you'll be having a burning in helluva good time.

Oh also, more penises than ever seen before, including Harry's, of whose we see go from peeing in a toilet (a classic MPK trope) to being serviced by his wife.

Marcus Myrick does not shy away from being a 'nepo baby' and it's endearing. His projects include G.I. Joe: Renegades, Family Guy, The Looney Tunes Show, Tron: Uprising, Kaijudo: Rise of the Duel Masters, Camp Lazlo! and The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack. He was also an assistant editor on Black Dynamite. With such an impressive list of projects, Marcus shares how his father, Ron Myrick, a veteran in the animation industry, played a pivotal role in his career of choice. Now, with over 20 years in the industry, we talk about that longevity as well as what being an animatic editor is in post-production. We dive into how the industry continues to evolve regarding technology and content and how during times when opportunities are few, connections mean everything. Marcus offers advice for aspiring editors and adds what he's learned from his dad and how it's helped him navigate his career and life.
Familie Feuerstein wird 65 Jahre alt: Zeit für ein Best of Zeichentrick! In dieser Spezialfolge lernen wir die Lieblingscartoons samt zugehöriger Charaktere aus den Kindertagen unserer Ollis kennen. Tatsächlich haben beide Boomer Boys früher sogar selbst Comics gezeichnet, Kalk hat sogar ein Buch gemacht. Nun gruseln sie sich durch die frühe Gewalt bei Max und Moritz, huldigen den Looney Tunes und lassen so manche Welt aus dem Hause Hanna-Barbera hochleben. Welk schwärmt von Der blauen Elise und offenbart sein kindliches Knack-Ohr-Ritual. Kalk spürt den frühen Tränen um Schweinchen Dick nach und trällert wie aus dem EffEff ganze Titellieder.

Imagine if, you will, that Hershel Gordon Lewis and Looney Tunes had a Kung Fu baby. Got that picture in your mind? No? Well, we just watched that Kung Fu baby in Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky. Based on a manga and accurately described as a Kung-Fu Splatter film, Riki-Oh lives up to the hype as the first Hong Kong film to be slapped with a Category III rating (NC-17 equivalent) for violence. If a thin story and exploding heads are your thing, then it's a MUST watch for you.

It may not be news to listeners of this podcast, but the Looney Tunes cartoons can be very gay. In celebration of the nearly 800 shorts being hosted on Tubi, Drew, Glen and returning guest Tony Rodriguez look at some of our favorites that also lend themselves to a queer reading. And no, it's not all Bugs Bunny in Drag. In fact, we probably didn't pick the drag moments you're expecting. But no worries: There is zero Tweety content in this episode.

One little typo turns into a whole episode. Eric mixes up “desert” and “dessert,” and suddenly we're off talking about sand, sweets, and whether cheesecake really is the king of them all. Along the way, we cover Looney Tunes backdrops, wrestling gimmicks, and what counts as a snack versus a dessert.The easy way to remember desert vs. dessertFamous deserts in the U.S. (and Todd's camping trips there)Why the Undertaker is from Death ValleyLooney Tunes and our picture of what deserts look likeSoft serve machines at home and the hierarchy of ice creamWhat really makes something a dessert (timing? sweetness?)Cheesecake Factory trips and declaring a winnerTurns out deserts are dry, desserts are sweet, and both can spark way more debate than you'd think.
It's Mighty Monday and Ryan is here to help us chat about the 1996 classic sports movie, Space Jam. ABOUT SPACE JAM:In a desperate attempt to win a basketball match and earn their freedom, the Looney Tunes seek the aid of retired basketball champion, Michael Jordan.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR SPACE JAM:November 15, 1996 | TheatersCAST & CREW OF SPACE JAM:Michael Jordan as HimselfBilly West as Bugs BunnyWayne Knight as Stan PodolakBill Murray as HimselfLarry Bird as HimselfCharles Barkley as HimselfPatrick Ewing as HimselfMuggsy Bogues as HimselfLarry Johnson as HimselfShawn Bradley as HimselfBRAN'S SPACE JAM SYNOPSIS:Little Michael Jordan is up late, playing basketball outside. His dad tells him to keep shooting until he misses. Michael says he wants to play ball at North Carolina. As he runs toward the hoop and jumps, the scene transitions to adult MJ jumping, leading into a 5+ minute highlight reel of Jordan clips. Honestly, it could've been an hour longer and I still would've been in.Michael then retires from basketball, and we transition to outer space. We're dropped onto Moron Mountain, a struggling amusement park. Its owner, Mr. Swackhammer, decides the best course of action is to kidnap the Looney Tunes to be the park's new attraction. His little henchmen head to Earth to hold the Tunes hostage, but Bugs Bunny convinces them to allow the Tunes to defend themselves, challenging them to a basketball game since the aliens are so small.After seeing a documentary about basketball and learning there are professionals, the aliens travel to Earth and steal the talents of Charles Barkley, Shawn Bradley, Patrick Ewing, Larry Johnson, and Muggsy Bogues. Using this talent, they transform into giant, baller versions of themselves known as the Monstars.When the Looney Tunes see how big the Monstars are, they realize they need help. They need the greatest to ever do it: Michael Jordan.They track MJ down at the golf course and literally pull him through a hole. Honestly, MJ handles it surprisingly well and he's in.Back on Earth, the real NBA players discover they've lost their ability to play, leading the league to suspend the season until they figure out what's happening.It's time for the big game, and the Monstars dominate the first half. The Tune Squad is devastated.During halftime, MJ's assistant Stan (who showed up earlier in the movie) learns how the Monstars stole the players' talent. This discourages the Tunes even more—until Bugs pulls out MJ's “secret stuff,” which is just water, but convinces the squad to believe in themselves.MJ raises the stakes with Swackhammer, as only he would: if the Tune Squad wins, the Monstars return the stolen talent. If the Monstars win, Jordan will spend the rest of his life as Moron Mountain's newest attraction.The Tunes fight back, but with only ten seconds left, they're down to four players. Luckily, Bill Murray shows up to even things out.In the final moments, Jordan talks to Bugs, uses cartoon physics, stretches his arm across the court, and slam-dunks for the win.After Swackhammer berates the Monstars, Jordan helps them realize they only served him because they were small. Fed up, the Monstars stuff Swackhammer into a missile and launch him to the moon. They then relinquish the stolen talent and decide to stay with the Tunes.Meanwhile, Jordan and Stan return to Earth, restoring the NBA stars' abilities. Their encouragement convinces Jordan to return to the league—and the rest is history.

01:00:44 – FBI Hides Epstein Footage, Trump May Pardon P. DiddyOpening topics hit fast: speculation that the FBI is withholding surveillance video from Epstein's cell, talk of Trump possibly pardoning P. Diddy, and questions over whether Ghislaine Maxwell could be next. 01:16:41 – Cincinnati Racially Motivated Beating OutrageThe show condemns comments from Cincinnati City Council President Pro Tem Victoria Parks, who said she was “grateful” for a black mob beating white victims. Discussion centers on media double standards, hate crime hypocrisy, and cultural propaganda against whites. 01:26:08 – Pelosi Act: Political Theater, Not ReformThe Senate committee advances the Pelosi Act to ban certain stock trades — but carves out exemptions for Trump and VP Vance. Framed as partisan score-settling, not genuine anti-corruption reform. 01:41:27 – UK Police Arrest Gardener for Using a TrowelUK police treat gardening tools as “offensive weapons,” arresting a man tending his own garden. The segment ridicules UK law enforcement as a clown show more focused on harmless citizens than real criminals. 01:59:17 – UK's Inverted JusticeCommentary on how authorities ignore terrorism and violent crime while punishing harmless acts like gardening or online speech. The UK's priorities are described as upside-down and politically motivated. 02:13:00 – Immigration Arrest Video Sparks OutrageA Florida traffic stop turns violent when immigration officers choke and tase two men. The American filming the incident is threatened and charged for refusing to delete the footage — a move the show calls pure thuggery. 02:46:07 – Poll: Nearly Half Link Trump to EpsteinA new poll finds 46% of Americans believe Trump was involved in Epstein's crimes, but Republican denial remains strong. The show laments how many refuse to see the evidence. 02:59:10 – Trump's Chinese Ship Fee BackfiresProposed fees on Chinese-built cargo ships risk crippling U.S. coal and agricultural exports, driving up consumer prices, and strangling already struggling industries. 03:07:45 – EU Trade Deal Unrealistic and RiskyThe U.S.–EU preliminary trade pact promises impossible energy purchase targets and could trigger economic blowback. The show likens it to “Looney Tunes” policymaking. 03:15:05 – AI as a Trojan Horse for a Lost GenerationConcerns are raised over Elon Musk's “anime AI girlfriend” on X/Twitter, described as engineered to hijack young men's attention and dopamine, replacing real-world relationships and stunting cognitive development. 03:28:31 – AI Will Erase Entry-Level WorkDiscussion shifts to how AI and automation will target entry-level jobs first, removing the stepping stones young people need to build careers. Generational decline in work opportunities is linked to automation, H‑1B hiring, and corporate cost-cutting. 03:43:40 – Technocrats Push Total Health Data SurveillanceU.S. health officials and tech leaders roll out plans for nationwide health data integration, combining wearables, tax records, DMV files, and more into a centralized system—framed as a tool for population management and control. 03:48:01 – Court Win for Christian Adoption RightsAn Oregon appeals court rules in favor of Jessica Bates, a Christian mother previously barred from adopting for refusing to support gender transition for foster children—seen as a rare religious liberty victory in the adoption system. 03:53:02 – Churches Freed to Endorse Political CandidatesConservative Christian activists celebrate a legal win against the Johnson Amendment, allowing churches to endorse candidates without IRS retaliation—a move viewed as a breakthrough for political speech from the pulpit.
