Podcasts about minors

This week Dylan Goldsmith brings the word as we continue our walk through the Minor Prophets with Nahum and its surprising sequel-like connection to Jonah. We trace Assyria's brutal history, Nineveh's brief repentance, and its eventual downfall, highlighting what this reveals about God's character—patient and compassionate, yet perfectly just. You'll be challenged to consider the cost of taking God's grace for granted, the reality of coming judgment, and the hope God offers as a refuge for those who trust in Him.Support the showWe are growing the Kingdom of God through the lives of everyday people by reaching UP to God, IN to Grow, and OUT to GiveJoin us on Sundays at 9:30 in person and online!FBC Nokomis Youtube: www.youtube.com/@FirstBaptistChurchofNokomisFBC Nokomis Facebook: www.facebook.com/firstbaptistnokomisFBC Nokomis Sermon Podcast: https://fbcnokomissermons.buzzsprout.com/share

Send us Fan MailWhen a teenager expresses suicidal thoughts to an AI chatbot, what happens next?In this clip from our episode “Who Sets the Rules for AI in Medicine?”, hosts David E. Williams and John Driscoll and Dr. John Whyte, CEO of the American Medical Association, break down why minors need stronger protections from AI chatbots than adults do, and why the line between a wellness app and a medical device matters more than the industry wants to admit.Listen to the full episode here

Multi-millionaire biohacker Bryan Johnson—a man who spends millions a year to optimize every single cell—was recently diagnosed with autoimmune gastritis. It's the ultimate proof of a reality check I've been preaching on the Inflammation Nation podcast for years: You cannot out-hack a frozen physiological foundation.Too many chronic healthcare consumers are trying to solve complex metabolic issues with a grade-school mindset. They are throwing money at advanced longevity shortcuts, wearables, and extreme fasting windows while completely ignoring the "Big Rocks" of metabolic health.In our latest episode, I break down the hard clinical numbers from two massive multi-decade studies:How adhering to basic foundational habits adds up to 13 extra years of total life expectancy.The exact baseline strategies that grant over 10 extra years of completely disease-free healthspan.Why generic lifestyle advice and DIY biohacking completely fail complex cases trapped in Metabolic Reprogramming.Crafting wellness is not the same as managing a disease with a pill or a biohacking shortcut. It requires finding your unique Root Cause Disruptors, building metabolic resilience, and moving step-by-step through a real health journey.Ready to stop majoring in the minors?

EPISODE 515 Jacob Jenkins-Cowart on his season in the minors so far by Pirate Radio 92.7FM Greenville

After watching the Blue Jays limp into the all-star break with a series loss in San Diego, Arden looks at how a lack of attention to detail led to a pair of one-run losses (00:55). He also takes stock of where the team stands heading into a critical stretch (24:13), talks about the Blue Jays heading to the all-star game (42:51), and looks at who the club selected in MLB's draft (50:11).

NOTE: This is our first episode to be labeled “explicit,” not due to bad language, but because it includes reasonably direct anatomical references. It may be best not to play this aloud when minors are present.We start with the relatively unknown story of Taiwanese boys condemned to become eunuchs in Emperor Qianlong's imperial palace, their fate sealed simply because they were the young sons of rebels. We then turn to the first gender affirmation surgery (as it might be called today) performed in Taiwan, way back in the early 1950s, with the remarkable case of soldier Hsieh Chien-shun (謝尖順), the so-called "Chinese Christine."In 1953, the discovery of Hsieh's medical condition and the ensuing series of operations became front-page news across Taiwan, with newspapers turning a deeply personal matter into a national spectacle. We explore the ethics of the case. Hsieh was reluctant to transition to female and only agreed after considerable pressure, making it much less of an “affirmation.”Despite the sensational journalism and Cold War nationalism surrounding one of the most unusual episodes in Taiwan's modern history, Hsieh's ordeal may have foreshadowed the island's later development as one of Asia's most progressive societies on issues of gender and sexuality.

Under the conditions of his release, Timothy Hudson is not supposed to be alone with anyone underage. And yet two minors reportedly live in the very home where he's been placed. Prosecutors raised exactly that alarm in open court. The judge acknowledged that an adult facing these charges would almost certainly be behind bars — called this case a "different animal" — and still let Hudson walk free on GPS monitoring. This look back examines why.Hudson faces first-degree murder and an additional serious federal charge in the death of his eighteen-year-old stepsister Anna Kepner aboard the Carnival Horizon. He's sixteen. Because the case is in federal court — the crime occurred in international waters — the intersection of his age and the severity of the charges creates a procedural situation federal judges rarely face. The detention hearing ended without a ruling, and Hudson left the courthouse.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott adds the family dimension. Timothy's biological mother, who is married to Anna's father, expelled him from the household immediately after Anna's death. Court filings allege she told his biological father she couldn't jeopardize her marriage to help her own son. Scott examines what that rejection does to a teenager already in crisis — someone facing life in prison whose parent has publicly chosen the victim's family over him — and the nine-year-old sibling caught between both sides of a family that has fractured beyond repair. Hudson has pleaded not guilty. We revisit where the case stood at the time of our reporting.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

St. Louis's new downtown curfew is already exposing a deeper problem — 41 minors picked up over the Fourth of July weekend, including two young teens whose parents couldn't even be bothered to come get them. Ryan Wrecker and Kim St. Onge don't sugarcoat it: this is a parenting crisis before it's a policing one. Then it's a street takeover at Wilmore Park with guns seized, a washed-out fireworks show that cost Bridgeton $40,000, and a look at MetroLink's brand-new turnstile system, complete with fencing that looks straight out of a border security briefing. Will it actually stop fare jumpers, or will day one prove Ryan and Kim right? This is the St. Louis Morning Brief, only on the Marc Cox Morning Show — stick around, more is coming up. Hashtags: #MarcCoxMorningShow #StLouisMorningBrief #StLouisCrime #ParentalResponsibility #MetroLinkSTL #PublicSafety #FamilyValues #CommonSenseConservative #StLouis #FourthOfJulyWeekend

In this special Fourth of July weekend message on the 250th anniversary of the United States, Pastor Ryan weaves together the prophecy of Micah, the story of Jesus' lineage, and the American experiment of “we the people.” He contrasts “we the people” with “the us in power,” reflecting on how God consistently works through ordinary, often flawed people—founders, reformers, soldiers, parents, and everyday citizens—to shape both nations and generations.Drawing from Micah 3 and 5 and Philippians 2, this sermon challenges listeners to resist cynicism and partisan binaries, to see their lives as part of a larger story, and to embrace their calling as Christians who love their nation without confusing it with their ultimate citizenship in God's kingdom. It's a call to live out sacrificial, Christ-shaped influence in our families, workplaces, and communities—for the sake of our posterity.Support the showWe are growing the Kingdom of God through the lives of everyday people by reaching UP to God, IN to Grow, and OUT to GiveJoin us on Sundays at 9:30 in person and online!FBC Nokomis Youtube: www.youtube.com/@FirstBaptistChurchofNokomisFBC Nokomis Facebook: www.facebook.com/firstbaptistnokomisFBC Nokomis Sermon Podcast: https://fbcnokomissermons.buzzsprout.com/share

Family feuds can last for generations—but God has something better in mind. In this message on Obadiah—the shortest book in the Old Testament—we trace the rivalry of Jacob and Esau all the way to Judah and Edom, and discover how God confronts betrayal, bitterness, and transactional love. Learn why God overturns social pecking orders, why compassion must start at home, and how the church is called to be more than a fan club for Jesus: we're called to be family.Support the showWe are growing the Kingdom of God through the lives of everyday people by reaching UP to God, IN to Grow, and OUT to GiveJoin us on Sundays at 9:30 in person and online!FBC Nokomis Youtube: www.youtube.com/@FirstBaptistChurchofNokomisFBC Nokomis Facebook: www.facebook.com/firstbaptistnokomisFBC Nokomis Sermon Podcast: https://fbcnokomissermons.buzzsprout.com/share

The MLB owner proposal to restructure the draft — including eliminating the high school portion and shrinking the minor leagues — landed last week. The reaction across the baseball internet was the usual reflexive "negative." This episode is the case for the other side, and it lands on a thesis BSGB has been building toward for two years: college baseball's player development resources are underrated, and the loudest criticisms don't hold up against the data.Trevor and Dan walk the proposal piece by piece, then spend the back half breaking down why college dev is the better environment for almost every prospect not named Konnor Griffin.The thesis arc:Cost-saving for cost-saving's sake (capped bonus pools, eliminated rounds) gets a flagCutting minor league teams to reinvest in the ones that remain gets a thumbs-upThe high school draft elimination is the heart of the conversationThe "college coaches don't care about development" take gets dismantledThe "minor leagues are safer because of pitch counts" take gets dismantledThe actual proof: Skenes, Lowder, Chase Burns, Nick Kurtz — each one built inside a college programThe injury prevention edge: programs running NewtForce mounds with integrated biomechanics flag the risk before the pitcher feels it (vs. a road-trip start in low-A with no data infrastructure)The trickle-up reality: spin metrics, high-ride fastballs, every "new" thing the MLB broadcasters discover — college was running it two years earlierThe coach reality: Wes Johnson, Matt Hobbs, Dan Heefner are at college programs because that's where the development happens, the resources are, and the pay matchesWhy people get this wrong:Survivorship bias. The Konnor Griffin and Jackson Holiday cases are real — they're also unicorns. The kids most baseball fans never name — Riley Pint, Lonnie White, the Guardians' "million-dollar outfield" — got drafted out of high school for seven figures and never sniffed the big leagues. Two years of high-level college baseball would have given them a shot at maturity, an education, a fallback, and a more developmental environment than the bus to Jackson, Mississippi.Why college player dev is actually better:Tech parity (or surplus) vs. an MLB org's minor-league systemTop coaches making more in college than they would as pro pitching coordinatorsIntegrated biomech + ground-force + bullpen data layers inside the buildingCoach access (Matt Hobbs, Dan Heifner, Wes Johnson) for direct daily repsEducation + maturity layer that no minor league system can replicateWhy this matters:The MLB owner proposal is a starting point, not a contract. But the premise that college baseball can absorb more of the development pipeline — especially with NIL paying these kids real money to stay — is on extremely solid ground.

Most fractional CMOs aren't failing because they lack skill. They're stalling because they're busy doing everything except the one thing that actually moves the needle. This episode opens with a gym analogy that's almost too accurate, then goes somewhere more uncomfortable: the real reason experienced marketers spend weeks building websites, booking headshots, and dreaming about book signings before they've landed a single client. What gets unpacked is the gap between productive activity and the feeling of productive activity, and why fear is almost always the engine running underneath all of it. The argument isn't that preparation is wrong. It's that most of the "preparation" happening right now is a dressed-up version of avoidance, and there's a faster way through it. Key Topics Covered: The BOSU ball problem and what it reveals about how people waste early momentum Why writing a book, building a website, and getting headshots are all the same mistake The two fears most fractional CMOs are actually running from Why you don't need to know the answer, you just need to be resourceful How to sell your first high-ticket client before you feel ready What courage actually looks like when you're scared (Dan Sullivan's definition) The fastest path to an extra $100,000 in the next 12 months   Take the First Step Toward Growth with CMOx  Booking a call with our team is super easy, stress-free, and all about YOU.

In this week's sermon of our Minor Prophets series, we walk with Amos—the farmer-turned-prophet who steps out of the echo chamber to deliver a hard truth to God's people. Using Amos' image of the plumb line, we explore what it means to measure our lives against God's standard rather than the people around us.From “ivory houses” and injustice toward the poor, to modern comfort, comparison, and online echo chambers, we press into one big question: Who is your Amos—the honest voice with nothing to gain who can help you live a life of true mishpat (justice) and right living before God?Support the showWe are growing the Kingdom of God through the lives of everyday people by reaching UP to God, IN to Grow, and OUT to GiveJoin us on Sundays at 9:30 in person and online!FBC Nokomis Youtube: www.youtube.com/@FirstBaptistChurchofNokomisFBC Nokomis Facebook: www.facebook.com/firstbaptistnokomisFBC Nokomis Sermon Podcast: https://fbcnokomissermons.buzzsprout.com/share

On Monday, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced that in 2027, the United Kingdom will ban children under 16 from accessing major social media platforms, including TikTok, Instagram, X, and YouTube (but not YouTube Kids). Several other countries have passed similar bans, but the UK's measure will go further, blocking features like live-streaming and communicating with strangers while gaming. Furthermore, Starmer said the regulations will restrict access to artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots designed to simulate romantic or sexual relationships for users under 18 and may also impose curfews on social media use for under-18s.Ad-free podcasts are here!To listen to this podcast ad-free, and to enjoy our subscriber only premium content, go to ReadTangle.com to sign up!You can read today's podcast⁠ ⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠ and today's “Under the radar” story ⁠here⁠ and today's “Have a nice day” story ⁠here⁠.You can subscribe to Tangle by clicking here or drop something in our tip jar by clicking here.

Episode #220 of the PricePlow Podcast brings Ben Kane and guest host Joey Savage to Washington, DC for the 2026 NPA (Natural Products Association) Fly-In Day. Their guest on the US Capitol steps at sunset: Uday Gosalia, founder of UGo Beyond and a proud advisor to Future Nutra. This year’s trip had a sharper edge than most. For the first time in several years, the industry came to DC specifically in opposition to active legislation, not just to make a general case. Two bills are in play: Senator Dick Durbin’s Dietary Supplement Listing Act of 2026 (S.3677), which would require every supplement SKU registered with the FDA before market entry, and the Dietary Supplement Regulatory Uniformity Act (H.R. 7366), introduced by Rep. Nick Langworthy, which needs a Senate companion to stop states from layering their own supplement restrictions on top of federal law. The conversation covers those two bills, the drug preclusion clause risk, what actually happens when you explain DSHEA to a senator’s staffer, and why consistent DC presence matters more than any single meeting.

In today's episode: should I turn down my inheritance? So, a family member has died recently and left some assets to you. You should be happy you've been left an inheritance, but it's complicated. Maybe you'd rather the money went to someone else. Or maybe, for whatever reason, it's just not worth the trouble. Do you have to accept it? The answer is no. Why would you ever choose not to accept assets that someone has given to you? There are a few situations where it makes sense. One case might be related to federal or state estate taxes. If you're already a high-net-worth individual who may have an estate tax issue, it may be better to disclaim, assuming your preferred beneficiary is next in line. This is especially true if the next beneficiaries are your children, who are likely to inherit your assets eventually. Why subject the assets to an extra layer of taxation on the way there? Also, inheriting certain assets, such as a traditional IRA, can be very complicated. When you inherit an IRA, unless you're a surviving spouse, current tax law requires you to withdraw the funds—and pay income taxes along the way—within ten years. If you're in a high-income tax bracket, you might not end up with as much as you hoped for. The next person in line, who might be in a lower income tax bracket, could end up with more money after taxes. And they may need the income more than you do. One sophisticated strategy some people use is to set up their favorite charity as a secondary beneficiary to their estate. If the IRA owner trusts his or her heirs' judgment, he or she could leave the IRA to them. They would then figure out whether it makes sense to disclaim the IRA, allowing it to pass to the charity. This could result in considerable income tax savings.[1] Sometimes there are other reasons you might choose to disclaim. The asset could be a rundown piece of real estate with deferred maintenance or environmental issues. In a case like that, you might decide that you just don't want it. Or maybe you simply don't need it. That could be a key consideration if the next person in line is your child or someone else you care about. Just keep in mind that it gets tricky if the new inheritor is a minor. Minors are considered legally incapable of owning assets directly, so they generally can't assume control or management of inherited assets. A court-appointed legal guardianship may be required.[2] So, what happens if you decide the answer is “no, thanks?” You would then need to file what's called a “qualified disclaimer.” If you do it properly, the assets pledged to you will be passed along to the next person in line. Although every state and every situation is different, here are some generic rules you might need to follow:[3] The disclaimer must be in writing. It also needs to be irrevocable and without any qualifications. Once you decide to disclaim, you can't change your mind. Also, you're not allowed to make it contingent on something else happening or not happening. The disclaimer must be made before you accept the assets. You can't give them back once you have them. It must be made in a timely manner. You generally need to submit the disclaimer within 9 months. However, there is an exception if the beneficiary is under age 21. In that case, the deadline is nine months after they reach age 21.[4] The disclaimer also needs to be unlimited. You're not going to be able to attach any conditions to the disclaimer. Note that it is also possible to execute a partial qualified disclaimer, but it can be tricky. For example, if you're scheduled to receive a certain number of shares in a publicly traded company, you may be able to keep a selected percentage of those shares while disclaiming the rest.[5] It's important to understand that a qualified disclaimer has its limitations. Maybe the most important of those is that you have to completely give up any right to the disclaimed assets. In other words, if you say no, you don't get to choose what happens next. You'll need to look closely to see where the money will end up if you disclaim. You might prefer that your children be next in line, but it's not your choice. If it's actually your long-lost cousin Ethel, that could also be a factor in your decision. It's not often that people are in a position to decline inherited assets. But in certain situations, it's nice to know that it can be done, if it makes sense.
