Words: tiny sounds, big consequences. In this witty and wisdom-packed episode, Josh C. Jones explores how your mouth isn't just for eating tacos or awkward small talk—it's shaping your future. From the power of positive speech to the dangers of casual negativity, this episode takes the old saying “sticks and stones may break my bones” and kindly tells it to sit down and shut up. You'll hear ancient parables, biblical truth bombs, and one particularly smug bird trick (no birds were harmed in the making of this podcast) that proves your words really do have power. Whether you're a serial sarcasm offender or someone who talks down to yourself more than your worst enemy ever could, this episode is your wake-up call. Think of it as a verbal gym session for your destiny—minus the sweating.   This 7-part series is brought to you by the book DESTINY: Rich or Poor, Life or Death, Choose Your Destiny                   NOTES: Intro/Outro Bumper Music: Evening Melodrama Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/   This podcast uses these sounds from freesound: sounds by deleted_user_96253 (https://freesound.org/s/351304/)

In this episode of Unscripted, Jeff Thompson and Sree Roy dive into the everyday mix of tech talk and personal takes, all in the natural flow of conversation. Sree kicks things off with a trip to the Apple Store, exploring iPhone crossbody straps and even the Beats lanyard trend. The two reflect on the surprise availability of the iPhone 17—thin as air, in stock, and shipping in just two hours. They weigh the pros and cons of the standard model versus the Pro and Max, noting the absence of LiDAR on the base edition. Conversation shifts to tools of their trade: Jeff shares how microphones and room acoustics shape his podcasting workflow, from condenser mics to dynamic setups, and why his SSL 2+ interface is his go-to. Sree brings in his Blue Sparks condenser mic and Zoom PodTrak P4, plus a shout-out to iBugToday.org for its rich assistive tech resources. You can contact us at 612-367-6093.

The Adams Archive is where pattern recognition meets receipts. Host Austin Adams digs into breaking stories, legacy narratives, and the edges where media, politics, and power collide—always separating what's confirmed from what's claimed and inviting you to think critically, not just consume headlines. Summary of this episode We open with the Michigan church shooting—a deadly attack allegedly involving a Marine veteran—and examine what's known so far, what's still unclear, and why multiple church attacks this year are raising questions about a broader pattern of anti-Christian violence. From there, we track a same-day second shooting tied to another Marine veteran and consider whether these are unrelated tragedies, media framing artifacts, or signals that demand deeper scrutiny. Next, we unpack the language war—how labels like “antisemitic” are used (and misused) online—while noting the relative silence around explicitly anti-Christian targeting. The goal isn't to downplay real bigotry; it's to interrogate consistency, data, and the incentives that shape which narratives dominate. We then pivot to the January 6 FBI presence discourse: informants, plainclothes/undercover distinctions, and why chain-of-command clarity matters. What's documented? What's alleged? Where do numbers come from, and what should honest accountability look like? On to Amelia Earhart declassification: interesting history, sure—but we contrast the political oxygen spent there with persistent public demand for fuller Epstein-related disclosures. Is this smart transparency, or a distraction from the files people actually want? Finally, we tackle the Charlie Kirk shooting theories head-on—second shooter angles, security-team speculation, and the viral lav-mic claim—carefully flagged as unverified. We talk through why these theories spread, what footage appears to show, what it doesn't, and how to build a responsible framework for vetting evidence when emotions are high and facts are evolving. Key topics, in brief (with flow): Michigan Church Shooting: What's confirmed about the attacker, timeline, casualties, and motive gaps—plus how proximity to other church incidents intensifies the “pattern” debate. Second Same-Day Shooting: Another Marine veteran, different setting; we compare profiles, timelines, and whether “coincidence vs. coordination” is even the right question. Narrative Labels & Consistency: Dissecting “antisemitism” accusations alongside reported anti-Christian incidents; pushing for one standard of evidence and language. January 6 & Federal Presence: Plainclothes vs. undercover vs. informants—why the definitions matter and what real transparency would require. Declassifying Earhart vs. Epstein: The optics of unveiling historic mysteries while deferring the disclosures modern audiences prioritize. Charlie Kirk Shooting Theories: A careful walk-through of circulating claims (second shooter, security team, lav-mic), how to weigh footage, and why “speculation” must stay labeled as such.

Why did Charlie Kirk resonate so deeply with young people, and what does that reveal about what's missing in our homes today? In this episode, Shanda sits down with her husband, Dean Fulbright, to talk about the truths every young person should first hear around the dining room table—truths like God exists. They discuss why belief in God shapes a young man's identity, responsibility, and courage, and how fathers and mentors can prepare the next generation to stand firm in a culture that denies Him.

Send us a textBen and Scott discuss whether it's time for Mike Gundy to step down as Oklahoma State's head football coach after the team's devastating loss to Oregon.• Gundy transformed OSU from an afterthought into a nationally respected program with 15 Top 25 finishes• Last season was Gundy's worst as head coach with only three wins• The Oregon game exposed fundamental issues with coaching, discipline, and player development• OSU's performance compared to Oklahoma shows a significant gap despite more coaching changes at OU• Like Kodak's failure to adapt to digital photography, Gundy may be unable to take the program to the next level• The best path forward would be for Gundy to resign gracefully to preserve his legacy while allowing fresh leadership• A leadership change would likely improve recruiting and revitalize the program with new energy and innovation Support the showI ♥ my podcast host @Buzzsprout.

Should you put the word podcast in your podcast title…or does it just make you sound outdated? In this milestone episode of Podcasting Morning Chat (number 365, meaning you could binge us every day for a full year!), the crew digs into two classic branding dilemmas. First up: the long-running debate over whether adding “podcast” to your show's name is helpful for clarity or just plain cringey. Then we turn our attention to cover art. Does featuring a microphone make your brand instantly recognizable, or is it a tired cliché that wastes valuable design space?

I've known Dave Hooper (host of Build a Big Podcast and Author of Big Podcast) since he put on the radio for the first time on Music Business Radio. When I heard that Dave had scored a job at Sirius I wanted the inside scoop on what it's like to work there, and what the heck is a "Producer."Dave explains that he got the job while being in "a funk" and he used that situation to introduce more "real" topics to channel 146 at 7 AM and Road Dog Trucking. I also share one sentence that jumped out at me from the Taylor Swift appearance on the new heights show. Takeaways: Ever wondered what it's like at Sirius Satellite Radio? Well, buckle up, buddy, because David Hooper is here to spill the tea on some wild stories, including a hilarious instance of dead air that'll make you cringe. Seriously, it's gold. So, David's job is basically a mix of five different roles. I mean, booking guests, prepping shows, running the board, cutting promos—what's next, making coffee? It's a circus behind the scenes, folks! We all know live radio can be a hot mess, right? David shares how he's had to dust off some old skills and navigate the chaos of live broadcasting. Spoiler: mistakes happen, and dead air is just part of the fun! Turns out, podcasting and satellite radio aren't that different after all. Both have their own unique challenges, but the real magic lies in connecting with the audience and building that sweet community vibe. David's new gig at Sirius has taught him some serious life skills, like staying calm and collected under pressure. Who knew being a radio producer would be like a masterclass in Zen? At the end of the day, it's all about community and connection. David's show is like a virtual truck stop, bringing people together to chat about everything from addiction to marriage on the road. Seriously, where else can you get that kind of therapy?

Here are some odd subjects you may not expect to hear from TOM BERGERON, but are here in this episode of The Approach Shot: Calling Australia on his radio show to hear the toilet flush Talking with 2 of the 3 Stooges when he was 16 years old, because he felt like it The horror of hearing your producer tell you to help with a "nip slip" His self admitting nerd-dom Yes, of course we get into "Dancing With the Stars", sure we talk about "America's Funniest Home Videos", of course we talk "AFV", but there's so much more to our discussion with TOM BERGERON. It's one of our absolute favorite episodes ever, and will be yours too.
