Well, as I warned you last night, they are coming for him again. The roll is on for Christopher Luxon. I didn't think it was going to happen this fast, but I knew it was going to happen. After I got off the radio last night at 7 o'clock, it ramped up, Thomas Coughlan wrote a piece late in the evening for the Herald confirming that National MPs were again phoning each other about his leadership. That, by the way, for people who've already asked me if I'm happy with the situation is not a media creation, get off that bandwagon. It is not the media creating the situation. The media are not forcing the MPs to try to roll him. This is the MPs trying to roll him in the media. They are telling you what is happening. Thomas Coughlan wasn't creating the situation - he was merely reporting on what was going on. Other media who were behind Thomas on this, then started phoning around, found out that Thomas was right and started reporting on the situation as well. The level of reporting became quite overwhelming today. As a result, the Prime Minister could no longer ignore what was now out in the open, and he called a caucus meeting, which will happen tomorrow at 9:30 in Wellington. MPs have already started landing in Wellington for that meeting. I think you would be a fool right now to say which way it is going to go tomorrow because there are about 17.5 hours between now and 9:30 tomorrow morning. There are multiple MPs who consider themselves to be in the running for leadership and those MPs will be using every one of those hours within reason to try to get the numbers for them. There will be horse trading between now and 9:30 tomorrow. There will be promises of jobs. Loyalties will shift. But what I would say is that it is going to be very hard for Chris Luxon to survive this. Because how do you survive two of these in less than 4 months? If, against all the odds, he manages to survive, does he have any authority left after that? I also think he is very close to losing the numbers if he hasn't already. I have counted by myself 3 loyal Luxon MPs who have left him. Two of them have joined Erica Stanford's camp. One of them has joined Chris Bishop's camp. If you've been following this over the last week, you will know that he only had a margin of 3 MPs in the rumored 27 to 22 vote in April. He has lost by my, my count, those 3 MPs, and those are just the ones I know about. He has possibly lost more than that. As I say, I think you would be a fool to say with certainty one way or the other that Chris Luxon will or will not be rolled tomorrow, but I don't like his chances. I don't think this is looking good for him at all. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Are you an ambitious spiritual person who knows you are here for more money, more purpose, more freedom and a deeper connection with The Divine — but somehow you still feel underpaid, under-expressed and spiritually stifled? In this SpiritSpeaks Experience, Rosemary Nonny Knight shares a Divine Download about the nudges, whispers and impressions already trying to get your attention — and the hidden loyalties that may be keeping you stuck in a small cage that feels uncomfortable but familiar.

"When the Lord's anointed suffers, where do you stand?In this passage, David is pursued relentlessly by Saul while hiding in the wilderness. Yet the real focus is not merely on persecution—but on the contrasting responses to David. Jonathan humbly submits to him, while the Ziphites betray him.This sermon presses a central question: Where do your loyalties lie?We explore the theme of the righteous remnant, the nature of true faithfulness, and the danger of siding with the world while maintaining outward religious profession. The contrast between Jonathan and the Ziphites reveals that it is not proximity, heritage, or appearance that defines allegiance—but faith.Above all, David points forward to Christ—the rejected Savior whom many abandon and only a few truly follow.Even when it appears that the enemies of God are winning, divine providence ensures the victory of His Anointed.Choose carefully. The narrow way is costly—but it leads to life.#1Samuel #DavidAndSaul #BiblicalTheology #SufferingServant #Faithfulness #ChristianDiscipleship #ReformedPreaching #ChristInTheOldTestament"

Revelation 2:12-17 - Speaker: Will Galkin - In Revelation 2:12–17, Jesus speaks to a church living in a city where loyalties competed at every level. Pergamum was impressive, intellectual, and religious, but it was also filled with counterfeit saviors and daily pressure to bow to Caesar. Jesus begins by reminding His people that He knows exactly where they live and what it costs to remain faithful. He commends them for holding fast to His name, even when Antipas was killed for refusing to deny Christ. Yet He also confronts them for tolerating compromise within their own fellowship, allowing teaching that led to idolatry and sexual immorality. The danger was not open rejection of Jesus, but quiet accommodation that slowly reshaped allegiance. The One who holds the sharp two-edged sword will not ignore divided loyalty in His church. Still, His final word is not judgment but promise. To those who conquer, He offers hidden manna, a white stone, and a new name. These images speak of provision, access, and lasting identity. Jesus calls us to be fully His and find our true satisfaction and security in Him alone.

The Heart of Living Hope Transforms | Matthew 21:33-44 | Week 1God has not only given life to all humanity and provided the natural blessings necessary to survive and flourish, but He also offers new life to all who will submit to His good and gracious reign and live in loyalty to Him.

Masterpiece Podcasts: Collection of Chinese Classic Novels

This week on The VHS Strikes Back, we dive into Erotic Ghost Story (1990), chosen by friend of the show John Hammond — a man clearly unafraid of wandering into the “back shelf” section of the video rental store. Directed by Lam Ngai Kai during the golden age of Hong Kong Category III cinema, this supernatural fantasy blends martial arts, folklore, horror and soft-focus seduction into one uniquely 90s experience.Released at a time when Hong Kong cinema was pushing boundaries with stylised ghost stories and adult-themed genre hybrids, Erotic Ghost Story arrived as part of a wave inspired by the success of films like A Chinese Ghost Story. With elaborate costumes, theatrical lighting, wire-work action and unapologetic late-night cable energy, this is exactly the kind of film you'd discover at 11:47pm with the volume turned suspiciously low. It's mystical. It's chaotic. It's extremely 1990.Trailer Guy Plot SummaryIn a world… where fox spirits walk among us…Three beautiful spirits descend from the mountains with one mission: to experience mortal life. But when a power-hungry sorcerer discovers their presence, desire turns to danger… and temptation awakens forces beyond control.Magic will clash. Loyalties will be tested. Floorboards will creak ominously.This summer… seduction has a supernatural side.Erotic Ghost Story.You were watching it for the kung fu.Fun FactsErotic Ghost Story was released in 1990 during the boom of Hong Kong Category III cinema, the local rating equivalent of adults-only material.The film blends Chinese folklore about fox spirits (huli jing) with martial arts choreography and supernatural horror.Director Lam Ngai Kai became known for stylised fantasy films that leaned heavily into theatrical lighting and elaborate costume design.The movie was part of a wave of sensual supernatural films following the commercial success of romantic fantasy ghost stories in late-80s Hong Kong cinema.Practical wire-work and in-camera effects were used for levitation and fight sequences — no CGI safety net here.The English export title was intentionally provocative to help the film stand out in international VHS markets.Category III films often relied on strong box office from late-night screenings and overseas rental sales.The combination of eroticism and traditional mythology made the film controversial but commercially viable at the time.The film developed a cult following among collectors of 90s Hong Kong fantasy cinema.Its blend of supernatural themes and martial arts action makes it a frequent inclusion in “so-bad-it's-fascinating” VHS-era discussions.Support the ShowIf you enjoy the show and would like to support us, we have a Patreon ⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠.If you're listening on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, leaving us a 5-star review (and a short comment) really helps more people discover the show.

“State of Flux” 30th-anniversary reflections A scouting expedition to an alien planet leads to a game-changing discovery. Surprisingly, it's not leola root. Nor is it mushrooms; though these are all pretty tasty finds. Even the Kazon can't lay claim to the title, despite turning out to have Starfleet technology aboard their ship. But we're getting warmer. How did the Kazon get their hands on the tech? It looks like the Voyager crew have a traitor in their midst. As Janeway, Chakotay, and Tuvok set out to solve the Case of the Cream of Mushroom, the trail leads them to a shocking revelation. In this episode of To The Journey, hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our 30th-anniversary retrospective that will take you through all of Star Trek: Voyager, one episode at a time. In this installment, we discuss “State of Flux,” Seska's big secret, how the story questions Starfleet ideals, and why establishing characters before plot twists matters.

The wish came true.Now the consequences begin.Natalie Primavera is trapped in a hospital bed, her body broken, her future uncertain — while her mind is stuck inside Ava Ross, a dancer who was never supposed to be good enough for the spotlight.Ava, meanwhile, is living inside Natalie's perfect body… and discovering that perfection is a prison with great lighting.As Nutcracker rehearsals intensify, the magic destabilizes. Roles are threatened. Loyalties fracture. The Sugar Plum Fairy becomes a battleground. And the line between ambition and identity starts to blur.Friendships turn sharp. Parents get complicated. Romance gets messy. And a Romanian ballet master with secrets of his own begins pushing both girls toward a reckoning neither of them is ready for.Act Two is where the comedy deepens, the stakes rise, and the story stops being about switching bodies — and starts being about who deserves the life they're fighting for.Because wanting something badly doesn't mean you understand the cost.It's still funny.It's still chaotic.But now it hurts in the best way.Written by award-winning writer Jenna St. John.Starring: Kensington Tallman as Natalie Primavera Logan Laurel as Ava Ross Konstantin Lavysh as Mr. Constantine Carson Bolde as Grayson Garcia Sasha Knight as Trevor Rita Dos Santos as Kenzie Samantha A.

BT & Sal dive into a discussion about changing fan loyalties, with Sal questioning his nephew's allegiance to the Rangers despite wearing a Devils jersey, and BT revealing a potential family tie to a Devils star that might force him to convert. The main event is the Week 14 Perfect Parlay, where the pressure is on: Hof dials back to a three-team parlay despite a tight race, BT wiggles back into contention with a conservative two-team play, and Sal takes a four-team, 100-point shot to catch up, trusting his Colts "due" theory to snap a 10-game losing streak in Jacksonville. The show concludes with a wild detour into Vegas gambling stories, covering the agony of the "Blackjack Table Bullies," the self-shame of ATM withdrawals, BT's $160,000 side-bet near-miss, and Sal's theory that you play to win, not to have fun. Finally, they give their Players to Watch for the week: Josh Allen and Sam Darnold.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the Pentagon's new Inspector General findings on Secretary of War Pete Hegseth's use of the Signal app, Eric Swalwell's push for voting by phone, new revelations about how the Afghan terrorist in Washington was radicalized, a Senate bill that would end dual citizenship, and promising research on depression and mental health. Pentagon IG Clears Hegseth of Wrongdoing: The Inspector General found that senior Trump officials violated protocol by discussing Yemen strike operations on the Signal app, but that Hegseth had legal authority to declassify what he shared. The report warns that using personal devices creates risk, although no adversary appears to have intercepted the information. Bryan describes the episode as sloppy tradecraft that prompted the administration to tighten internal communications procedures. Swalwell Pushes Voting by Phone: California Democrat Eric Swalwell is proposing phone-based voting, insisting it can be secure. Bryan counters with his CIA experience, explaining that any phone-based voting system would be a prime target for foreign intelligence services. He argues that electronic voting in any form creates undetectable vulnerabilities that nations like China and Russia would exploit. How the Afghan Terrorist Was Radicalized: New reporting shows that Rahmanullah Lakanwal told his wife he was meeting with members of the Tablighi Jamaat, a Deobandi revivalist movement with a long history of extremism. The group has terror cells in parts of the United States, and Lakanwal previously assisted the CIA in killing their members overseas. Bryan explains why investigators are now trying to determine whether cells in Phoenix, San Diego, Chicago, Indianapolis, or on the East Coast are connected to the attack. Senator Proposes Ending Dual Citizenship: Ohio Senator Bernie Moreno introduced a bill requiring Americans to hold only United States citizenship. He argues that dual allegiance creates legal and security conflicts and says becoming an American should be an all-or-nothing commitment. Bryan encourages listeners who support the idea to contact their senators and weigh in. Mental Health Research Offers Hope: Studies show that taking a weeklong break from social media reduces depression and insomnia. British researchers also found that nitrous oxide treatments can rapidly improve severe depression when other therapies fail, and exercise and time in nature remain highly effective for anxiety and mood disorders.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Pentagon IG report, Signal app, Pete Hegseth declassification authority, Eric Swalwell voting by phone, NSA hacking risks electronic voting, Rahmanullah Lakanwal Tablighi Jamaat radicalization, dual citizenship, Exclusive Citizenship Act, depression research nitrous oxide, social media break mental health

Many people latch onto the idea that Jeffrey Epstein was simply a Mossad asset, but that narrow framing ignores the vast, tangled reality of how he operated. Epstein absolutely interacted with Israeli intelligence at times, but he was far from a one-nation operative. The emails, correspondence, and contacts that have surfaced reveal a man functioning as a geopolitical free agent—someone who cultivated influence with the British Royal Family, served as a broker between Russia and Western power players, embedded himself in Wall Street and academia, and navigated U.S. political circles with ease. His value came from his ambiguity. He was a dealer of access, leverage, and kompromat who aligned himself with any faction—American, British, Russian, Israeli, or otherwise—that furthered his personal agenda. Viewing Epstein as a single-country asset grossly oversimplifies a transnational operation that spanned governments, intelligence networks, and private power structures.The fixation on Mossad serves as a distraction that conveniently shields the many other institutions and elites who benefitted from Epstein's activities. Reducing his network to a single foreign intelligence service allows U.S. political figures, European royalty, Wall Street executives, global banks, and academic power centers to slide out of the frame. It masks the deeper truth that Epstein was part of a multinational ecosystem of private influence that operated parallel to, and often above, governments. His power came from the kompromat he accumulated across continents, the secrets he mediated, and the access he controlled—making him dangerous not because he served one nation, but because he served himself. Simplifying him to a Mossad agent is not only inaccurate; it protects the sprawling network of global power players who enabled him and had every incentive to silence him before the full truth emerged.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

TRIGGER WARNING: The end of this pod covers details of a sexual assault allegation with disturbing language pulled directly from a public police report. That topic lasts from 1:03:05-1:21:51. The second half of a two-part Broligarchy Roast concludes with reviewing an anti-anti-fascist Executive Order, a recently deleted study on the reality of domestic terrorism, and fun with HB1 Visas. Additionally, a look at FBI firings, investigations, lawsuits, and the children's book author at its helm. As the DOJ works to address Presidential beefs, we dig into Comey's indictment and the raid of a former advisor before closing with a dive into the new Department of War treehouse.

Jon Herold and Zak “RedPill78” Paine dig deep into Benjamin Netanyahu's shadowy past and the controversies that follow him into the present. From questions about dual citizenship, multiple Social Security identities, and confidential U.S. files to corruption trials and backroom deals, they trace how Netanyahu's rise was anything but ordinary. The discussion links his father's revisionist Zionism, the Entebbe raid, and the weapons of mass destruction narrative to modern scandals of bribery, media manipulation, and questionable alliances. The hosts connect these threads to the October 7th attacks, Netanyahu's grip on power, and the explosive whispers surrounding Charlie Kirk's assassination, asking whether Israel's doctrine of Din Rodef could justify silencing critics. With sharp commentary on 9/11 foreknowledge, U.S.-Israel ties, and the manipulation of trauma events, this episode pulls no punches in exposing how darkness is often woven into design.

Speaker | Dr. Jim Bradford JEREMIAH: About our Loyalties Sunday September 14, 2025 Sermon Slides | YouVersion

In Luke 14:25–33, Jesus challenges the crowds—and us—with stark words about discipleship: “Whoever does not carry the cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.” What does it mean to “hate” family, give up possessions, and count the cost? In this sermon, Rev. Dr. Jason Storbakken explores the cultural context of Jesus' radical call, the danger of finding identity in politics, possessions, or social status, and the invitation to reorder our lives through the costly yet life-giving way of the cross.

Happy Thursday everyone! Welcome to episode 12 of Word On The Street, where we are talking all things British and Irish Lions ahead of the first test this weekend. This week we asked the public where their loyalties lie, Ireland over Lions or Lions over Ireland, and also whether this concept could work in any other sport. Susanna got the chance to ramble about her favourite sport, Eve got an education in all things rugby, and Rachel joined us from the glorious land of Cork to give her two cents on the GAA as well.Have a topic or thought in mind?
