We’re pretty savvy when it comes to miracle marketing claims, but for once, a product might have the stats to back it up… On today’s episode of Spendy Savey, Leigh and Kelly share their best skincare, makeup, hair, body and fragrance recommendations, including a new $266 serum that’s clinically proven to reverse skin ageing by up to six years (um, WHAT?!) and the fastest ‘express’ self tan Leigh’s ever tried. Spoiler: You can wash it off after just 20 minutes! Could a $75 lip serum possibly be worth its spendy price tag? Leigh thinks so; allow her to convince you why. Plus, we’ve found an excellent chemist-brand cream bronzer that rivals your expensive ones, and a vitamin C serum that could become your C E Ferulic alternative for when the ole budget needs tightening.

From a very early age, Dave Singer knew exactly what he wanted, which was exactly what most other 8 year olds do. A sewing machine... wait, what? Okay, so Dave may not have taken the more traveled road, but it the path that he was absolutely sure he was suppose to be on. From military jumper and rigger, to civilian camera flyer and eventually on to the Mecca of the times for cutting edge skydiving in Perris Valley, Dave never had a doubt that skydiving was his life. Working his way through college to earn an engineering degree specifically to put that knowledge to work in the construction and manufacturing of skydiving equipment, Dave is one of that rare breed of person that knows he is exactly where he's suppose to be, deep in the Lunatic Fringe.

Leigh Campbell is back alongside Kelly McCarren, and no biggie, but Leigh reckons she’s already found what will be the best product of 2026 (even though it’s only January!). On today’s episode of Spendy Savey, Leigh and Kelly share their best skincare, makeup, hair, body and fragrance recommendations, including the new Charlotte Tilbury ‘flawless’ concealer, a product for lips losing their pigment with age, and the best blush Leigh’s tried in her 20 years as a beauty journalist.

Michael Germi is a former Muslim that was born in Iran into a Shia Muslim family. In this setting he learned to practice Islam by praying 5 times a day toward Mecca. He fasted during Ramadan. He practiced self-mutilation for the cause of Allah. He migrated to Australia in 2006 and in 2009 placed his trust in Jesus Christ. He later moved to the States where he now proclaims the Gospel to Islamic nations. He has written several Farsi Christian books and desires to plant churches around the world where Persians are scattered. Iran is in upheaval. Since December 28th millions of people have been protesting against the regime. Merchants have taken to the streets, and the elderly who have been going with no salary are joining them as well as nurses, teachers, women, teenagers and many others. They have called out for the return of the Crown Prince of Iran, Reza Pavlavi. They have shouted, "This is the final battle; Pahlavi will return." and "This year is the year of blood; Ayatollah will fall." The Ayatollah has gone to great efforts to keep the rest of the world from knowing what has taken place. There are reports that the leadership of Iran has used snipers, the revolutionary guard and even chemical weapons to quell the unrest. News accounts have reported the massacre of many. There have been calls for new leadership in Iran as clerics demand executions. Recently Ayatollah Ali Khamenei declared, "We broke the back of the rioters. The day of the successful crackdown will be remembered as a day of celebration for years to come." Our guest today is from Iran and knows all too well the authoritarian power of the Ayatollah and the threat of this Islamic regime.

The Mecca of Banter crew unpacks a chaotic week across world football, starting with Manchester United's post‑Derby resurgence and the tactical tweaks that fueled their surprise win over City. The hosts dig into St. Louis City's newest signings and what they could mean for the club's long‑term identity, before shifting to the drama-soaked AFCON final — controversies, standout moments, and everything in between.The conversation heats up as they tackle the ongoing struggles at Tottenham, the emotional rollercoaster for fans, and the growing disconnect between the squad and the touchline. Chelsea's weekend victory adds a rare bright spot, giving the hosts plenty to celebrate (and tease) as they debate player performances and the direction of the new regime. The episode wraps with classic banter, sharp opinions, and the kind of football chaos that keeps listeners coming back.Tags: #MeccaOfBanter #ManchesterUnited #StLouisCitySC #FootballPodcast #SoccerAnalysis #PremierLeague #MLS

Join Izzy and Solomon for an extraordinary conversation with John, a Yemeni ex-Muslim who left Islam at the heart of Mecca, and Emma from Open Doors UK, as they unpack what it truly costs to follow Jesus in the world's most dangerous places. This episode dives deep into the 2025 World Watch List, revealing where faith costs the most—and why 388 million Christians around the world are paying a high price for following Jesus. Discover John's radical testimony of growing up as a devoted Muslim in Yemen, travelling to Mecca with his family, and rejecting Islam at the holiest site in the Islamic world. We'll also explore practical ways to stand with the persecuted church: pray for the World Watch List countries, love Muslims around you with the truth that God is love, read your Bible and don't take freedom for granted.

In this episode of Hip Hop What IFS, we dive deep into a pivotal cultural debate: why didn't Houston become the permanent "Mecca" of hip hop instead of Atlanta? We are joined by Houston resident and hip hop head Cornelius Anthony to break down the massive legacy of the city's pioneers. We discuss how J. Prince and Rap-A-Lot Records established the blueprint for Southern dominance with the Geto Boys, featuring legends like Scarface, Willie D, and the late Bushwick Bill. The conversation explores the city's unique independent spirit, from the "Screwed Up Clique" led by the iconic DJ Screw to the mid-2000s explosion of Swisher House stars like Mike Jones, Paul Wall, and Slim Thug, and the early groundwork laid by Bun B and Pimp C of UGK.  We also address the tragic reality of Houston's "Gift and a Curse"—the untimely loss of several legends in their prime, including Fat Pat, Big Hawk, Big Mo, and Pimp C, and how those losses impacted the city's national momentum. The episode highlights Houston's unmatched independent hustle, noting that while Atlanta artists often sought corporate deals with LaFace or So So Def, Houston artists like Z-Ro, Lil' Keke, and Sauce Walka prioritized local dominance and ownership. Finally, we look at how the torch is being carried today by global superstars like Travis Scott and Megan Thee Stallion, while local favorites like Propane, Lil' Mario, and Quiet Money continue to keep the original Houston sound alive.  Subscribe to the SOLC Network for more deep dives into the stories and "what ifs" that shaped the rap game!

The conversation covers the historical emergence of Algeria as a political and territorial unit, starting in the Ottoman period in the 16th century. Key pivotal moments in Algerian history are highlighted, including French colonialism beginning in 1830, which led to a settler colonial project, the rise of the modern mass nationalist movement in the interwar period, the War of National Liberation (1954–1962), and the decade of violence in the 1990s. The latter half of the conversation focuses on the "Worlds of Islam," emphasizing a polycentric history with no single center. A historian, professor at the University of Oxford, and author of books "A History of Algeria" and "The Worlds of Islam: A Global History", James McDougall details the diverse "technologies" of Islam's spread, including its compelling initial mission, the appeal of social mobility for non-Arabs, trade networks, and the influence of Sufism. He also discusses the historical roots of Islamophobia, which is traced to the 19th-century colonial moment. He discusses why he was drawn to studying Algeria, a country he notes is often ignored in Middle East studies and is known as "the land of a million martyrs" for its iconic history of resistance to colonialism.  0:00 Introduction2:08 Intellectual Curiosity and Addressing Poor Understanding of the Region7:37 When Did Algeria Begin to Exist?

Chris returns from his vacation in Puerto Rico, and talks about why PR is amazing (and why he would potentially move there).

Plus, Dave and Chris discuss who would be in their top-10 of bodybuilders of the last decade, and why the mentality of the likes of Phil Heath and Jay Cutler truly set them apart from the rest.

Dr. Ahmed Joktan is a medical doctor who turned evangelist. His father is a mufti in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. Once set to bring jihad to the world, he came to know Jesus Christ as Savior and wants to bring true peace in Jesus to Muslims and lost people everywhere. Five times he faced death, but God spared him so that he could tell Muslims and lost people worldwide about how Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. Our other guest, Matthew Black, is a pastor who played a key role in the life of this Saudi physician.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You get the sack.You get the sack.Everybody gets sacked.In this week's episode of Mecca of Banter, the boys unpack one of the most chaotic weeks in recent football memory. With Enzo Maresca sacked at Chelsea and Rúben Amorim gone at Manchester United, the conversation spirals into ownership dysfunction, club identity crises, and the growing feeling of apathy among fans who have seen this movie before.We dig into why these sackings weren't really about results, how control from the top is suffocating managers, and why the modern “head coach, not manager” era might be breaking football. From Chelsea's revolving door and yes-man culture, to United's fractured identity post-Ferguson, to the obsession with data over DNA, nothing is spared.There's anger.There's dark humor.There's resignation.And somehow… there's still football to be played.If you're a fan of Chelsea, Manchester United, or just chaos in general — this one's for you.Keywords: Premier League podcast, managerial sackings, Chelsea, Manchester United, club ownership, football identity, coaching chaos, Mecca of Banter, Maesca, AmorimChapters00:00 – Everybody gets sacked02:32 – Why these sackings weren't about results05:11 – Control vs trust in modern football08:00 – Chelsea's endless cycle11:02 – The “head coach” era problem13:55 – Why stability actually matters22:19 – The Maresca fallout23:50 – Amorim reaction & United shock27:23 – Manchester United's identity crisis31:19 – Ownership incompetence35:14 – What comes next for both clubs38:38 – Data obsession vs club DNA44:25 – Weekend results context47:32 – Player performances & frustration50:49 – Winning ugly vs winning right56:09 – Tactical identity breakdown01:01:35 – Chelsea reflections01:05:29 – Looking ahead (if anyone survives)Premier League, Premier League podcast, football podcast, soccer podcast, managerial sackings, football chaos, Chelsea FC, Manchester United, MUFC, Enzo Maresca, Ruben Amorim, club ownership, football management, coaching changes, head coach era, club identity football, Premier League analysis, fan frustration, football banter, Mecca of Banter, soccer YouTube, American soccer podcast, football discussion

Of all the world's Muslim communities, the multiethnic Muslims of China are perhaps the least known, as though secluded by a Great Wall of linguistic, geographical and political dimensions. Yet preserved in mosques and shrines across the whole length of China—as well as India and Thailand —are manuscripts, woodblock prints and lithographs that reveal the interconnections of China's Muslims with their coreligionists in other parts of Asia.  In this episode, we travel far and wide by following these books and their authors from Nanjing and Xinjiang to Kanpur, Sri Lanka and Mecca. We learn about such influential figures as Wang Daiyu (c.1570-1660) and Ma Lianyuan (1842-1903), who not only wrote books in Chinese and Persian but also pioneered the development of Muslim printing.

On this episode of HALO Talks, host Pete Moore welcomes industry veteran Steve Roderick, the man behind Bozeman, Montana's Ridge Athletic. Steve began his career in the HALO sector serendipitously—thanks to a chance encounter in a Wyoming bar—Roderick talks about how his love for athletics fueled his vision to elevate community health and wellness. From building the Ridge from the ground up to navigating the constantly evolving landscape of Bozeman, he reflects on the importance of creating a multi-generational, welcoming environment, his strategies for growth, and the value of relationships—both inside the club and across the industry. Whether you're an entrepreneur, an operator, or a passionate member of the HALO sector, Steve's story is packed with insights on building culture, driving community impact, and staying ahead through collaboration. When it comes to the secret of building out a great team Roderick jokes, "If you're gonna run a business, the thing you need to do is hire people smarter than you. And I said, 'Well, that's gonna be easy!'" Key themes discussed Origins and evolution of Ridge Athletic. Strategic location and real estate development. Building brand equity and community presence. Facility design and member demo. Growth of Bozeman and regional opportunities. Creating strong company culture and staff retention. Importance of networking and industry learning. A Few Key Takeaways:  1.Building from the Ground Up and Taking Risks: Roderick got his (very) unexpected start in the fitness club business when he was literally handed the keys to a 30,000 square foot facility in Wyoming that was going out of business. He didn't know much about running a gym but dove in, learned quickly, and eventually built his own fitness center from scratch in Bozeman. 2. The Importance of Location and Vision: When developing Ridge Athletic, Steve  chose a piece of land on the outskirts of Bozeman, trusting that the community would eventually grow around the facility. Over time, his vision proved spot-on, with Bozeman's expansion making The Ridge a hub of activity and fitness in the center of town. 3. Community and Brand Equity: Maintaining both a main facility and a satellite downtown location allowed The Ridge to reach diverse demographics and reinforce its presence. Steve recognized the value of building relationships in the business district while also expanding with a larger, flagship facility. 4. Creating a Welcoming Culture for Staff and Members: A key to The Ridge's success is the positive, team-driven culture Steve built for both employees and members. He focuses on hiring people who are passionate and smarter than himself, fostering an environment where staff feel respected and motivated, which translates to a better experience for members. 5. Catering to All Ages and Building for the Future: The Ridge is intentionally inclusive, offering programs and spaces for everyone—from children to seniors. He emphasizes that creating meaningful programming for kids encourages family memberships and helps foster lifelong fitness habits. He also stresses the need for continued professional growth and industry connection, citing the value of mastermind groups like REX Roundtable.

A concise new narrative history of Islam that draws on the transformative insights of recent research to emphasize the diversity and dynamism of the tradition. Today's Muslim world has been experiencing upheaval: legalists and mystics engage in intense debates, radical groups invoke Sharia, Muslim immigrants in the West face prejudice and discrimination, and Muslim feminists advocate new interpretations of the Koran. At the same time, Islam is mischaracterized as unitary and unchanging by people ranging from right-wing Western politicians claiming that Islam is incompatible with democracy to conservative Muslims dreaming of returning to the golden age of the prophet.  Against this contentious backdrop, this book provides a timely new history of the religion in all its astonishing richness and diversity as it has been practiced by Muslims around the world, from seventh-century Mecca to today. Most popular histories of Islam continue to repeat conventional pietistic accounts. In contrast, John Tolan draws on decades of new historical research that has transformed knowledge of the origins and development of the Muslim faith. He shows how the youngest of the three great monotheisms arose in close contact with Jewish, Christian, and other religious traditions in a mixture of cultures, including Arab, Greek, Persian, and Turkish; how Islam spread across an enormous territory encompassing hundreds of languages and cultures; how Muslims have forged widely different beliefs and practices over fourteen centuries; and how Islamic history provides crucial context for understanding contemporary debates in the Muslim world. At a time when much talk about Islam is filled with misunderstanding, stereotypes, and bias, this book provides a fresh and lucid portrait of the continuous and ongoing transformations of a religion of tremendous variety and complexity.

Premier League Parity | Mecca of BanterIt's good to be back.This week on Mecca of Banter, Mecca and Conner break down Manchester United's wild 4–4 draw with Bournemouth—a match that somehow showed everything good, bad, and confusing about this team in 90 minutes. We dig into the first-half dominance, the second-half collapse, and what it all says about United's current identity.From Casemiro's ball-magnet chaos, to Bruno Fernandes pulling strings, to Kobbie Mainoo announcing himself as a match winner, we analyze individual performances, tactical decisions, and why United still feel one or two pieces away. The conversation widens to the rest of the Premier League, where parity feels real this season—Arsenal wobbling, Chelsea searching, and City lurking as always.Is this league as open as it feels? And is United closer than the table suggests? We get into all of it.Keywords: Premier League, Manchester United, football podcast, match review, tactics, Bruno Fernandes, Casemiro, Kobbie Mainoo, transfers, player analysis00:00 – Welcome back & match overview02:53 – United's performance: dominance vs discipline05:38 – Casemiro, Amad & midfield control08:25 – Substitutions and momentum swings11:30 – Kobbie Mainoo's breakout moment14:25 – Defensive lapses & communication issues17:22 – Bruno Fernandes appreciation segment20:10 – Tactical flexibility & future direction22:59 – Player utilization & squad balance29:32 – Expectations vs reality34:21 – January transfer priorities39:08 – Premier League parity: who's real?42:00 – Recent matches & league-wide trends49:35 – Squad depth & what comes nextChaptersPremier League, Premier League parity, Manchester United, Man United, MUFC, Manchester United podcast, Premier League podcast, football podcast, soccer podcast, Man United Bournemouth, Bournemouth vs Manchester United, 4-4 draw, Premier League analysis, Premier League review, Manchester United analysis, Bruno Fernandes, Casemiro, Kobbie Mainoo, Kobbie Mainoo goal, Man United midfield, Premier League tactics, football tactics, player analysis, January transfer window, Man United transfers, Premier League title race, Arsenal Premier League, Chelsea Premier League, Manchester City Premier League, Premier League discussion, football banter, Mecca of Banter, soccer talk, football YouTube

Today's Muslim world has been experiencing upheaval: legalists and mystics engage in intense debates, radical groups invoke Sharia, Muslim immigrants in the West face prejudice and discrimination, and Muslim feminists advocate new interpretations of the Koran. At the same time, Islam is mischaracterized as unitary and unchanging by people ranging from right-wing Western politicians claiming that Islam is incompatible with democracy to conservative Muslims dreaming of returning to the golden age of the prophet.  Against this contentious backdrop, this book provides a timely new history of the religion in all its astonishing richness and diversity as it has been practiced by Muslims around the world, from seventh-century Mecca to today. Most popular histories of Islam continue to repeat conventional pietistic accounts. In contrast, John Tolan draws on decades of new historical research that has transformed knowledge of the origins and development of the Muslim faith. He shows how the youngest of the three great monotheisms arose in close contact with Jewish, Christian, and other religious traditions in a mixture of cultures, including Arab, Greek, Persian, and Turkish; how Islam spread across an enormous territory encompassing hundreds of languages and cultures; how Muslims have forged widely different beliefs and practices over fourteen centuries; and how Islamic history provides crucial context for understanding contemporary debates in the Muslim world. At a time when much talk about Islam is filled with misunderstanding, stereotypes, and bias, this book provides a fresh and lucid portrait of the continuous and ongoing transformations of a religion of tremendous variety and complexity.

In this episode, hosts Chris and Mecca interview Dr. Cindi SturtzSreetharan about language decoding, why inclusive language matters for better science, the importance of clearly defining the terms we use, and how ethnographic methods help contextualize research. Dr. SturtzSreetharan is a President's Professor at the School of Human Evolution & Social Change at Arizona State University. She has a bachelor's degree in international relations from Willamette University, a master's in Asian studies from the University of Oregon, and a doctorate in Anthropology from the University of California at Davis. Her research interests center on a language-in-interaction approach to the construction of identities, including masculinity. Much of her earlier work focused on how Japanese men use language as a resource for creating, maintaining, or refuting a masculine identity. She has also worked on language use in reality TV shows, serial dramas, and film, focusing specifically on language and fatherhood. For the past decade, Dr. SturtzSreetharan has turned her attention to the intersection of language, the body, and medicine. Her current work is an investigation of metabolic syndrome in Japan, a so-called lifestyle condition that affects more men than women. She is particularly interested in the way that everyday, mundane language interactions contribute to the production of felt shame and stigma around body size, shape, and care. ------------------------------ Find the papers discussed in this episode: SturtzSreetharan, C.L & Shibamoto-Smith, J.

Share a commentWho really belongs to Abraham's family—those with the right ancestry, or those with the right faith? We follow Paul's lead and ask a simple question that cuts through centuries of argument: what do the Scriptures say? From Romans 4 to Galatians 3, the promise to Abraham narrows to a single point of focus—the Seed—and widens to welcome the nations through faith in Jesus Christ.We explore the historical rise of Islam, from Muhammad's early claims and adoption of Jewish forms to the later pivot toward Mecca and distinctive rites. That backdrop sets the stage for a frank, respectful comparison of core doctrines: the identity of God, the person of Jesus, and the cross. When Christ's crucifixion and resurrection are denied, the gospel itself is removed. When Christ is confessed as the promised Seed, Abraham's blessing becomes a living reality, not a contested storyline. This is more than religious trivia; it is the hinge of assurance. Abraham believed God was able to perform what he promised, and that same assurance rests on the finished work of Christ.We also turn the lens on ourselves. Respect for Muslim neighbors must be real—patient listening, clear words, genuine friendship. Recognition must be firm—Allah is not Elohim, and the Jesus of the Quran is not the Jesus of the Bible. And rededication must be practical—recovering habits of prayer, fasting, public witness, and heartfelt worship that match our message. Passion without truth misleads, but truth without passion misrepresents. Abraham's true heirs are those who trust the Son, and their lives should carry the sound of that promise kept.If this conversation helps you think more clearly and live more boldly, subscribe, share the episode with a friend, and leave a review to help others find the show.Support the showStephen's latest book, The Disciples Prayer, is available now. https://www.wisdomonline.org/store/view/the-disciples-prayer-hardback

PREVIEW: Significance of Crown Prince MBS's White House Visit Guest: Jonathan Schanzer John Batchelor speaks with Jonathan Schanzer about Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's (MBS) White House visit, with Schanzer explaining that MBS, controlling Mecca and Medina, holds immense influence as the "Vatican for the Muslim world," noting that while Hamas answers to patrons like Iran, they cannot ignore the pragmatic Saudis, and Schanzer sees great promise in MBS discussing normalization and closer partnership with the US. 1926
