In this week's bite-sized-but-beefy episode, Adam and Dan dig into a fun little thought experiment: If you weren't playing your current role in your band… what would you play instead? A surprising number of bandleaders in our Patreon community dream of swapping their front-and-center duties for a backline spot—and let's be honest, we kinda get it.From the romanticized lives of bass players and drummers (spoiler: not as chill as they look) to the hard realities of load-in, leadership, and showing up late without consequence, we unpack the psychological and practical trade-offs of switching roles in your band. We also dig into how being a multi-instrumentalist or doubling as a front-of-house tech makes you better at your main gig.Oh—and we roast bass players. Lovingly. Because we are them. Sometimes.Topics Covered:Why bandleaders fantasize about being sidemenThe great drummer delusion: is sitting down actually easier?Subbing on bass: heroic or horrifying?FOH techs as secret weapon gig ninjasHow learning other roles sharpens your primary skillsetAir drumming, finger twirls, and the dark truth of gear load-outsCall to Action:What role would you want to play if you weren't doing your current thing?

The Monologues Podcast invites producers to mix an hour of their own productions. Follow our Bandcamp for our label releases at http://monologuesrecords.bandcamp.com The impressively consistent Burnin Music is the work of France-born, London-based hustler Pegasvs. Lovingly curated and accompanied by high-quality artwork, their releases have made their way into the boxes of some of the most respected names in the scene, and his own output on the label has impressed more with each release. He's packed his mix full of unreleased exclusives, from deep to acid to broken beat - one of which we've picked up to release on Monologues Records later this year... *How would you describe your sound?* I make raw, club-ready house music. The values I try to convey through my sound are freedom, rhythm and craft. *What and who inspires you and influences your sound?*  I am inspired by a few key figures in house music: Kerri Chandler, Larry Heard, Ron Trent. Those people influence my sound but I am also influenced by my own experiences: going out clubbing, my daily life in London, running a record label, being a dad... ll those experiences shape my music. I believe that, whether you like it or not, our surroundings, friends, education....  everything we go through on a day-to-day basis as humans, this go straight in the big pot of Creativity. It is part of our output. Consciously or not... *Can you tell us a little about this mix and what it means to you?* For  the first time, thanks to this mix, I had to go through my past projects. I spent quite a long time listening back to almost all finished projects in my hard drive and chose the ones that meant something to me. It's been a wonderful process and I am really happy with the result. Big thanks to Ben for inviting me to record that mix.

Galaxy Quest was one of the great summer movies of 1999. Except it was released, for some reason, at Christmas. Lovingly sending up television sci-fi of a certain era - and heavily grounded in Star Trek - Galaxy Quest was a modest success as 30th highest grossing movie of 1999 The second feature film, both overall and in as many years following the Vince Gilligan-penned Home Fries with Drew Barrymore and Luke Wilson in 1998, from accomplished television director Dean Parisot, and witten by David Howard and Rob Gordon, Galaxy Quest stars Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman, Enrico Colantoni, Tony Shaloub, Sam Rockwell, Darryl Chill Mitchell, Robin Sachs, Patrick Breen, Missy Pyle, Jeb Rees, and Rain Wilson and Justin Long in their film debuts. Galaxy Quest has gone on to become one of the great cult films (and most enduring comedies) ever. So we invited culture writer Annie Berke to see how it holds up a quarter century later. Oh, and we basically write the sequel! Annie is on Bluesky @sayanniething  

Welcome back to The Spiritual Cupcake Podcast! Today's minisode is sparked by a beautiful conversation with Candace's soul sister Magda (of Therrapy podcast). What begins as a chat about dandelions—yes, the sunny little “weeds”—blossoms into a deeper reflection on boundaries.✨ Topics touched on in this minisode:• Why the dandelion is more than just a weed• When beauty becomes invasive—and how to set loving boundaries•Nature's reminder to lovingly tend to your inner garden—pulling the "weeds" that disrupt your peace.•   

Setting boundaries is hard. Setting them with people who don't understand—or don't care to—is even harder. In this powerful episode, licensed counselor Taylora Bookie of Quies Counseling joins us to unpack how to enforce boundaries with grace, clarity, and love. Together, we explore why boundaries often trigger guilt (especially for Christians), how to handle emotional pushback, and what it really means to protect your peace without losing your compassion. Whether you're healing from trauma, recovering from spiritual manipulation, or simply learning to say “no” without shame, this conversation offers practical tools rooted in both Scripture and wisdom from a licensed counselor.

In this episode of the Shepherd Press Podcast, host Anthony Russo continues his conversation with Jim Newcomer about his mini-book on forgiveness. They delve deep into the theology and practical applications of forgiveness, discussing differences between 'lovingly covering' an offense and 'lovingly confronting' it. Jim Newcomer explains the scriptural foundation behind these concepts, pointing to verses from 1 Peter, Proverbs, and Corinthians. The episode also touches on situations involving repeated offenses, the need for wisdom in handling different scenarios of hurt, and the difference between forgiving an individual versus an organization. Towards the end, Newcomer discusses his co-editor role in the Lifeline for Teens mini book series, highlighting its unique focus on relevant issues for teens.00:28 Foundations of Forgiveness01:41 Covering in Love vs. Transactional Forgiveness06:02 Handling Continuous Sin and Serious Offenses14:23 Forgiveness in Complex Situations16:37 Expanded materials for Teens | LifeLine for Teens mini-book series21:07 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsResources:Grab a copy of our mini-book "Help!

In Matthew 23 Jesus exposes these church leaders for who they really are by using some very harsh words, calling them hypocrites, blind guides, whitewashed tombs, snakes, and sons of vipers. However, it is essential that we understand the tone of Jesus voice. As he concludes he reveals his heart. He is like a mother hen wanting to save her chicks from the coming destruction. He is calling out to the church leaders to change their ways so a great destruction can be avoided. But not they took no heed to His warning and history tells us that within 40 years Rome came and destroyed the city and the temple and many, many people.This pdf can be found at www.rediscovderinggod.ca#Ian Hartley#Warren Kay#Sascha Steenbergen#ReDiscovering God

Send us a textWhat happens when a self-referential slasher comedy can't quite figure out what it wants to be? "Hell of a Summer," the directorial debut from Finn Wolfhard and Billy Bryk, promised to do for summer camp slashers what "Scream" did for the entire genre – but stumbles in its execution despite some genuine bright spots.This week, we dive into this curious $3 million indie horror comedy that follows Jason, a dedicated 24-year-old camp counselor who returns to Camp Pineway rather than pursuing a responsible legal career. When counselors start getting picked off by a killer in a devil mask, the film attempts to balance humor, horror, and character work with varying degrees of success. While the cinematography impresses throughout – especially considering the challenges of night shooting on a limited budget – the narrative and character development leave much to be desired.The true revelation of the film is co-director Billy Bryk's performance as Bobby, whose scene-stealing comedic moments provide the film's biggest laughs and most memorable sequences. We break down why his character works so well while others (including Wolfhard's own character) fail to make an impression. From puzzling killer motivations to inconsistent death scenes, we unpack where this promising concept went wrong while celebrating the moments where it actually delivers.Whether you're a horror fan curious about this new addition to the slasher comedy subgenre or just enjoy our dissections of films that don't quite reach their potential, this episode offers plenty to sink your teeth into. Join us for a thoughtful, funny conversation about "Hell of a Summer" – a film that might not be great, but certainly gave us more to talk about than we expected.Lovingly written by AIBe our friend!Dan: @shakybaconTony: @tonydczechAnd follow the podcast on IG: @hatewatchingDAT

Discussion Questions In what secondary areas of faith do you see stronger and weaker believers?  If you consider yourself a "stronger" believer over one of those matters, what is your priority: enjoying your freedom, or giving it up to serve another Christian? How can you look like Jesus by laying aside your freedom for another believer this week?

In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed:  Protecting your beneficiary from dumb choices How Stan lovingly handcuffs his beneficiaries Handcuffing your loved ones is good for them   Key Takeaways:  Lovingly handcuffing your beneficiaries with annuity guarantees protects them from making dumb decisions with lump sums.  Stan has written in the trust that when he dies, there will be a lifetime income annuity purchase for each of his daughters, guaranteed to pay them for the rest of their life as long as they are breathing.  Your beneficiaries might not react positively to you giving them income instead of a lump sum, but handcuffing them contractually is the right thing to do and it will be good for them in the long run.    "Death is not a good strategy, because you can only use it once. But wouldn't it be good to know regardless of what happens, that they're taken care of? And that lifetime income stream is going to be in place?" —  Stan The Annuity Man.      Connect with The Annuity Man:  Website: http://theannuityman.com/  Email: Stan@TheAnnuityMan.com  Book: Owner's Manuals: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/how-do-annuities-work YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCXKKxvVslbeGAlEc5sra2g  Get a Quote Today: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/annuity-calculator!

In this episode, I sit down to have a conversation about the importance of developing a loving, compassionate relationship with ourselves. As someone who has navigated her own challenges with alcohol, I share how cultivating self-kindness was pivotal to creating lasting change. We explore how our childhood attachment styles can shape our adult lives and the practical steps we can take to become the nurturing parent we always needed. Through delving into the neuroscience behind self-compassion and the different attachment patterns, I offer insights and tools that can support personal growth, whether you're looking to shift your relationship with alcohol or simply want to deepen your self-acceptance. This conversation dives beneath the surface-level strategies to uncover the deeper emotional and psychological factors that often underlie our struggles, providing a roadmap for true transformation. Key Takeaways: The root cause of many people's difficulties changing their relationship with alcohol is the harsh, self-critical inner voice - we must learn to treat ourselves with kindness first. Our attachment styles (secure, anxious, avoidant, disorganized) formed in childhood profoundly impact our adult relationships and self-perception, but these patterns are not fixed. Practices like loving-kindness meditation can help us become the nurturing parent we never had, healing the wounded parts of ourselves. Developing awareness around our triggers, motivations, and emotional patterns around alcohol is the crucial first step before making behavioral changes. Embracing all aspects of ourselves, including the parts we've rejected or made "bad," is key to lasting personal transformation. We can shift our attachment styles through inner work, learning to be the compassionate caregiver we always needed.

Maggie speaks with Willie Nelson's youngest son Micah Nelson also known as "Particle Kid" about his latest collaboration with his Father. Willie's 76th studio album and 153rd album overall as he celebrates his 91st year.  Willie Nelson is now in his 7th decade as a songwriter, performer and recording artist, but one of his most underrated talents is song interpretation. Over his career he has tackled songs from across the world of music, making each his own. Willie turns his gaze to a collection of songs by rock legends, idiosyncratic singer songwriters, alt-rock heroes, and indie folk artists. The result is a gorgeously cohesive rumination on loss, love, and world-weary hope, perfectly complemented by spare and spooky musical production. Lovingly curated and produced by his son Micah Nelson, Last Leaf On The Tree finds Willie covering songs from moody indie rock (Beck), psych alt-pop (The Flaming Lips) and punk-informed folk (Sunny War, Micah's Particle Kid) to thought-provoking soul jazz (Nina Simone) and lesser-known gems from legends like Tom Waits, Neil Young, Keith Richards, and Warren Zevon. In addition, the album features new takes on one of Willie's oldest songs (“The Ghost” from 1962) plus a new one penned with Micah (“The Color Of Sound”) that joins Willie's collection of Zen-soaked classics. In addition to producing, Micah Nelson plays many of the instruments and even designed the album cover. He is joined by a host of celebrated musicians plus guest spots from legendary producer and musician Daniel Lanois, John Densmore of The Doors and harmonica master Mickey Raphael, who has played alongside Willie for over 50 years.Source: https://legacyrecordings.medium.com/willie-nelson-the-last-leaf-on-the-tree-d94188f65739Source: https://www.sonymusic.com/legacy/legacy-recordings-releases-willie-nelson-last-leaf-on-the-tree-track/Source: https://willienelson.com/Host Maggie LePique, a radio veteran since the 1980's at NPR in Kansas City Mo.

“If you walk up and down Main Street and go into an art gallery, or a retail shop, or a restaurant that's been here for years, you're gonna get a, ‘Welcome y'all. How's it going?' And you're going to get a sense of who that person is and what that place really is. There are ways to be luxurious and boutique without being stuffy and pretentious, because the Hill Country is simply not any of those things.” We're in great company with Mike Bolick, the General Manager of the Albert Hotel, a tranquil Texas Hill Country resort that is lovingly restored and set to officially open in January 2025, blending historical charm with modern luxury, tucked just off of Fredericksburg's bustling Main Street.  There is much talk about town and excitement in the air as this historic Main Street is brought back to life with a vigor to preserve the past and pave way for a new generation of authenticity seeking travelers.  In this episode, Mike shares his credible perspective on and passion for what he and his team at New Waterloo are curating in this ‘Honest Hill Country Getaway,' - from a culinary scene rivaling that of Austin paired with the talented winemaking scene right outside of town, to the boutique accommodations that are ‘delightfully detailed' and ‘eclectically elegant.' Top Takeaways [1:45] From a childhood growing up in Ritz Carlton hotels to beginning his hospitality career with The Four Seasons to finding his purpose in the luxury boutique hotel space, how Mike found his way to New Waterloo and took a chance on the Albert.  [9:20] Who is Albert you ask? Lovingly described as "the Hill Country's last renaissance man or its first hippie,” there's much to say about this influential and innovative man.  [14:10] Step back in time to a Saloon serving classic cocktails and a Pharmacy stocked with seasonal kolaches and sweet treats to snack on as you savor the nostalgic decor that adorns the walls.  [20:10] Luxury looks a bit different in Hill Country, focusing on an abundance of time and convenience of location, a genuine community and connection to history, “because, you don't have to be anywhere else.” [24:40] From cozy reading nooks to modern suites designed as if you're staying in your hip aunt's city flat, from signature spa scents and seasonal ingredients to a sunken pool meant to mimic a Texas swimming hole, there's intention behind every detail of the Albert.  [37:20] Come hungry and leave full - of award winning southern cuisine and authentic barbecue - and fond memories shared over creative cocktails and fine wines.    Notable Mentions Hotel Emma in San Antonio Pipkin & Co Visit Fredericksburg Enchanted Rock San Saba Soap Co Chef Michael Fojtasek of MaieB Hospitality Texas' First Michelin Guide Becker Vineyards William Chris Vineyards Side Street Hospitality Vaudeville Living Visit For Yourself Albert Hotel Website | @alberthotelfbgtx @pharmacyfbgtx | @saloonfbgtx | @junebugs_bbq  New Waterloo Website | @newwaterloo Stay In Good Company Website

I just wanted the pain to stop. PTSD was a living hell for me. And I just wanted the pain to stop. And so I told my wife at the time, You're moving out. And she did. And then I almost, I almost succeeded in stopping the pain that way. By the way, if you ever have any thoughts about that, I'll suggest, get some help, reach out for someone. But I'm also gonna suggest find someone to love. I notice when I find someone to love, I open up love to me. I know, I, I know I am love at this point, I didn't know it then. All I knew back then was I am pain. And I paid the price for that. So right when I was two thirds of the way through the trigger pool, I, uh, I remembered a photo from the police academy. And they showed a body of a man that looked like he weighed about 350 to 400 pounds. And Lieutenant Waugaman said, how much do you think this guy weighs? And he said he was about 125 and he'd been bloating out in the field in the summertime after he shot himself. And you know, I, I did the best I could. That's all any of us can do. I sent my wife at the time away, I didn't want her there. I went them two thirds of the way through neutralizing the pain. And I'm telling you how I was thinking at the time. That photo flashed in and I thought of my grandmother and my mom and I loved them and I was able to let that love Reveal itself in me. Not everyone has that happen But I invite you in any point in time of your day in any point in time in your life find Someone to love find someone to imagine Lovingly for when you can find a way when you can find someone to give what you truly are to You That heals everyone. When something like this pops up in my life, I often mention, from what I can tell, we don't die. I had my near death experience in 1989 and two others since then. And from what I can tell, we don't die. I've also had visits from folks that are on their next adventure. I guess all that started when I was a boy and my other grandma died. That doesn't mean I don't miss her to this day, and I certainly did as a little boy, and it's okay to grieve. It's okay to feel sad. It's also okay to just, whenever it shows up, spontaneously feel happy that they're on their next adventure. And you can commune with them at any time. We get to notice, we really get to keep discovering, you're not your physical body. And death is a doorway. So years later, I'm reading Neville Goddard, And Neville Goddard says the suicide of Judas, one of the disciples, is changing the concept of self. Your identity. And you know I'm nuts about identity based manifesting. Because I'm nuts about who I get to be in the world, and who you get to be in the world, Who you get to be on your next adventure, too. Because we're all going to awaken to what we truly are. And in the meantime, and even after that happens, we get to play some parts. Neville woke up to who he was, and he still played the part of Neville Goddard. Speaker, writer, teacher, dad. So one more. From what I can tell, people experience pain and suffering every day in one form or another, a tiny bit or a lot. As much as I've transformed in the past 11 months, and I've transformed greatly, Right now I just stretch my hip, and it's a little bit painful when I stretch it. It's not painful when I walk. It used to be painful with each step. And I've discovered strengthening and stretching, that's what I'm naturally doing now since I changed my identity, my state. I went from someone who was happy with progress, to someone who doesn't settle for anything less than a miracle. Transformation. See, self improvement is totally different than personal transformation. Because you're the personal. God, the ever almighty universal giver of life, you're the personal. The spark behind your eyes is God having the adventure of a lifetime. Let it be personal. Let it be fun. But don't ever take any blame on.

This summer I had the pleasure, tongue in cheek, of planning and conducting an estate sale…a three day estate sale for a home that was lovingly occupied for almost 50 years. Lovingly occupied by two people who bought everything they wanted in multiples. That being said, there was a LOT of stuff. They had so much stuff that the three-day one weekend sale was actually a six-day two weekend sale. We encountered some real characters who had interesting negotiating styles, many quite ineffective. I am going to share some of the things they taught me.
