On this episode: Nate gets cheap airline tickets. Aaron navigates and revisits what it's like to be under pressure. This week, Nate and Aaron interview Ian Cron. Ian has a new book out called: The Fix, looking at the light hearted transformation that the 12-steps have. Ian shares how he unconsciously audited the 12-steps in 1987. He shares how his spiritual misadventures were an invitation from God for deeper intimacy. The suggestion that a setback is a better name than relapse. Ian also shares his thoughts on why the church is not like the rooms of recovery. If that's not enough, there's also a “stupid list” in enneagram discussion.Links: Ian Cron Books: The Fix: How the Twelve Steps Offer a Surprising Path of Transformation for the Well-Adjusted, the-Down-and-out, and Everyone in Between The Fix Workbook: How the Twelve Steps Offer a Surprising Path of Transformation for the Well-Adjusted, the-Down-and-out, and Everyone in Between Jesus, My Father, the CIA, and Me: A Memoir…of Sorts Chasing Francis: A Pilgrim's TaleSept. 12-14, 2025 Austrian Retreat Nov 7-9, 2025 Santa Fe, NM Samson Summit Nov 7-9, 2025 The Wild & Sacred Journey, Womens RetreatSponsor: Life Works CounselingIf you have thoughts or questions and you'd like the guys to address in upcoming episodes or suggestions for future guests, please drop a note to piratemonkpodcast@gmail.com.The music on this podcast is contributed by members of the Samson Society.For more information on this ministry, please visit samsonsociety.com.

Chuck DeGroat's name has become somewhat synonymous with work on narcissism in the church. But as he and Steve Cuss discuss, DeGroat is devoted to shining a light on wholeheartedness and internal integration.   DeGroat and Cuss talk about anxiety—specifically around dying—and the way that age often brings with it a concern for one's legacy. They talk about experiencing pain through work in church settings, noticing emotions that arise in ourselves and others, and coming home to God and ourselves—all while considering the impact of secondary trauma on people in pastoral and helping professions, ways to distinguish between shutdown and rest, and our response to the invitation of God.

   May 11, 2024 - What happens when a celebrated author — Muhammad Ali's official biographer, no less — turns his talents to putting his mother's century-long life down on paper? In this episode, our time machine welcomes aboard Thomas Hauser, author of “My Mother and Me: A Memoir.” Eleanor Nordlinger Hauser, who passed away last year at 96, experienced a life of success and failures, meeting the march of years with resilience and grace until she made her peace with the fact that — as we all do someday— she had run out of tomorrows. Thomas Hauser is the author of fiction and non-fiction books that are best-sellers the world over. They include “Final Warning: The Legacy of Chernobyl” and “Muhammad Ali: His Life and Times.” As you might expect for the official biographer of The Greatest, he has been inducted into the Boxing Hall of Fame. For more on Ali and boxing, check out these previous interviews: Todd D. Snyder – Bundini: Don't Believe the Hype Todd D.

For over 25 years Bev Stohl was the administrative aide to Noam Chomsky at MIT. But she was so much more than that . . . not only did she manage his office, but become a close personal friend. She recently wrote a memoir of her time with him at MIT and we had a fantastic and poignant conversation about what Noam is like in "real life," when he's not writing and speaking about world events. We found out that Noam thinks scotch provides him protein. That he loves pets. That after Ali G. got in for an interview he told her "no more gold suits." We discussed how Noam eats egg (singular on purpose). Bev talked about her travels with Noam, including to the Vatican, his long friendship with Howard Zinn, the various people she met who came in to talk with him (including Zack de la Rocha and Tom Morello), how he warmed up to kids and pets, and so much more. It's a rare insight into the personal life of the world's most famous dissident provided by the person was was close to him every day for over a quarter-century. --------------------------------------------------------------- Outro- "Green and Red Blues" by Moody Links// + Chomsky and Me: A Memoir (https://bit.ly/3P8gvcD) +Bev's website: http://bevstohl.blogspot.com/ + Instagram: Chomsky and Me A Memoir (https://bit.ly/3v7jKKy) + Facebook: Chomsky and Me A Memoir (https://www.facebook.com/ChomskyandMeAMemoir) Follow Green and Red// +G&R Linktree: ⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast⁠⁠⁠ +Our rad website: ⁠⁠⁠https://greenandredpodcast.org/⁠⁠⁠ +We're part of the Labor Podcast Network: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.laborradionetwork.org/⁠⁠ + Join our Discord community (https://discord.gg/2skFuHUb) Support the Green and Red Podcast// +Become a Patron at https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast +Or make a one time donation here: ⁠⁠⁠https://bit.ly/DonateGandR⁠⁠⁠ This is a Green and Red Podcast (@PodcastGreenRed) production.

Colleen Schaeffel's childhood in Minnesota was upended when both of her parents became alcoholics. As her father's addiction escalated, he lost his job, home, and family bonds. But through it all, Colleen remained dedicated to helping him, making countless trips to detox and rehabilitation centers over nearly two decades.  It was a painful journey that tested Colleen's own mental health and strength. But she persevered by setting healthy boundaries, practicing mindfulness, reframing negative thoughts, and leaning on the love of family. Her unwavering compassion and forgiveness toward her father never faltered, even when he hit rock bottom again and again.  Despite the chaos at home, Colleen blossomed into a high achiever - earning advanced degrees, building a successful medical career, and raising three amazing kids. She found meaning by sharing her story through writing and counseling others struggling with addiction, including publishing a memoir called Do You Believe in Me: A Memoir of Addiction, Hope, and Family Bonds. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CJL9SYGW Colleen is living proof that with resilience, hope and loving bonds, you can triumph over even the most traumatic upbringings.

Libby Purves meets Rear Admiral David Pulvertaft, an expert on ships figureheads; designer and inventor Tom Karen; writer David Stuart MacLean and actor Rebecca Front. Rear Admiral David Pulvertaft first developed an interest in warship figureheads during his naval service and since retiring has spent nearly 20 years researching the subject.

An exhibition of Tom's work, Inspiration in 5000 Sketches, is at the University of Cambridge. In 2002 writer David Stuart MacLean found himself on a station platform in India with no ticket, no passport and no idea of who he was. He was so agitated and tormented by hallucinations that he had to be restrained, he couldn't remember his family or what had brought him to India. In his book, The Answer to the Riddle is Me, he tells the story of this terrifying episode and his long recovery. The Answer to the Riddle is Me - A Memoir of Amnesia is published by Short Books. Rebecca Front is a BAFTA-winning actor and writer. She is best known for her work in television comedy series such as The Thick of It and Grandma's House and dramas including Lewis and Death Comes to Pemberley. Her book, Curious - True Stories and Loose Connections, draws on experiences in her life from the near death by drowning of her father to the uninvited house guest who refused to leave. Curious - True Stories and Loose Connections is published by Weidenfeld & Nicholson. Producer: Paula McGinley.

Donna Britt appears at the 2012 Library of Congress National Book Festival. Speaker Biography: Washington Post columnist Donna Britt has spent her life surrounded by men -- her three brothers, two husbands and three sons. When her brother Darrell was killed by police 30 years ago, Britt unconsciously sought to help other men the way she couldn't help Darrell. Her new book, "Brothers (& Me): A Memoir of Loving and Giving," navigates Britt's life through her relationships with men, resulting in a tender, funny and heartbreaking exploration of universal issues of gender and race.
