    IntroWhat happens when a song sits at the strange intersection of post-hardcore drumming, Gord's ghostly poetry, and full-on studio alchemy? This week, I'm joined by Vish from Edmonton—longtime Hip-head, writer, broadcaster, and host of Kreative Kontrol—to wrestle with what makes this entry in the Top Forty so haunting and so essential.Episode OverviewWe dig into the power of The Hip's studio experimentation, Vish's personal memories of the band, and why this song stands out even among the weirdest, most ambitious corners of Phantom Power.About the GuestVish Khanna is a staple in Canadian music media. He's a writer, interviewer, and the voice behind the Kreative Kontrol podcast. But beyond the mic, he's a lifelong Hip fan who's seen it all—from the Kumbaya Festival broadcast live on MuchMusic to the raw power of Another Roadside Attraction at 15 years old.Vish shares deeply personal stories of meeting Gord Downie in tiny clubs, trading emails, and even jamming on stage with members of the Country of Miracles at Hillside. This isn't just fandom—it's a lifelong relationship with the music, the people, and the community they built.ClosingHuge thanks to Vish for his time, his honesty, and his endless Hip-lore. If this track hits you in the gut like it does for us, share your own Hipstory. Leave us a voice memo, send an email, or come argue your rankings in the Facebook group.We'll be back next Monday with Song 13 on the countdown—don't miss it.So there's that.Connect with Us

    God doesn't just perform miracles—He creates people to be miracles. Like Gideon, who was called a mighty warrior while hiding in fear, we often wait for miracles instead of recognizing we are the miracle God wants to use. The journey to greatness begins in our minds, overcoming the negative self-talk that limits our potential. Greatness starts with believing what God says about us and taking small steps of obedience, even when nobody notices. By confronting our personal idols and choosing to serve others, we can fulfill the purpose for which we were fearfully and wonderfully made.

    You've probably seen it before—one person gets the miracle, and someone else doesn't. One story ends in celebration, the other in heartbreak. And if you're honest, it's hard not to wonder: Is God playing favourites? Is He even listening? In Part 2 of Miracles: Then & Now, Andy Stanley walks us through a raw and often overlooked tension in the Bible—why Peter lives, but Stephen dies. Why some people are healed while others are left waiting. And what it actually means to trust God when the outcome isn't what you hoped for. If you've ever questioned God's fairness, wrestled with unanswered prayer, or felt like faith was harder than it should be—this message is for you.

    How did a former anorexic learn to hunger for God? On today's Flourish-Meant episode, we dove deep with Emily Wierenga, award-winning author and founder of the Lulu Tree, as she shared her powerful journey from battling anorexia to discovering how true fulfillment comes from hungering for God. Emily opened up about overcoming deep-rooted struggles, finding healing through serving others, and building a purpose-driven life that impacts communities worldwide. Her message? Your pain has a greater purpose and you're never alone in your struggles. Let Emily's story inspire you to pursue healing, embrace your calling, and make a difference. Key Takeaways from Emily's Story: The Roots of Disordered Eating: Emily recalls how the loss of connection and early comments about her body triggered her battle with anorexia. She powerfully reminds us that comparison often lies at the heart of eating disorders, but true healing comes from connection, not competition. A Walk Towards Healing: From the brink of death at age 13 to relapsing after marriage, Emily shares honestly about the ongoing process of healing and the importance of confronting life's root issues—not just symptoms. Finding Purpose in Service: Serving her mother during a cancer battle and later founding The Lulu Tree taught Emily that healing can multiply when we serve others. Her experience reminds us that true joy and restoration often begin with blessing the person right in front of us. Daily Practices for a Hungering Spirit: Emily shares practical wisdom: set boundaries around daily distractions, start with praise and worship, spend intentional moments in God's presence, and protect your healing by knowing and avoiding your triggers. The Power of Worship over Performance: Emily encourages us to lift our gaze from ourselves and fix our eyes on Christ, discovering our true identity in Him. Worship isn't about working harder—it's about surrendering everything. Miracles in Obedience: You'll love Emily's remarkable story from Uganda, where a prayer for multiplication resulted in more resources than they could have ever planned—proving again that God meets us when we step out in faith. Support Emily's Work & Stay Connected Want to dive deeper into Emily's journey or support The Lulu Tree? Visit emilytwierenga.com for her books, resources for eating disorder recovery, and details on The Lulu Tree's mission. Final Encouragement Emily's heartfelt message to anyone struggling with eating disorders or feelings of unworthiness: You are valuable. God has a plan and a purpose for you—and even in the darkness, hope and healing are possible when you seek Him first. We hope you're as encouraged by Emily's story as we were.

    In this insightful episode, Bill and Eric are joined by Abhi Katamneni from Efficiency Canada and Nate Adams, also known as the House Whisperer, for a wide-ranging conversation on the future of home performance, policy, and how HVAC contractors can play a central role in the electrification and decarbonization of housing. Abhi shares lessons from his ride-alongs with contractors across North America, emphasizing how real-world experience shapes policy that actually works. Nate dives into his shift toward consumer education and the systemic problems he's observed in program design and incentives. Together, they unpack how well-meaning policies can backfire when they disrupt the natural rhythm of contracting businesses—highlighting the urgent need for smarter, more contractor-centric approaches. They discuss “boundary spanners,” the unintended consequences of top-down mandates, and why the HVAC service truck is ground zero for climate solutions. Both guests call for immersion, experimentation, and communities of practice to move from boutique success stories to scalable change. Some quotes from the Episode: “The brain can't absorb what your butt can't endure.” – Abhi “If you're not building something shovel-ready for contractors, what are you even doing?” – Abhi “A heat pump isn't just green—it's better. More comfort, less noise, fewer regrets.” – Nate Nate's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/natethehousewhisperer/ Abhi's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/akantamn/ Boundary Spanners podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/1OunercMNOjZ3poROcI5Z4 Nate's website where  you get free downloads or the book: https://www.natethehousewhisperer.com/ ACEEE: https://www.aceee.org/ Efficiency Canada: https://www.efficiencycanada.org/   This episode was recorded in June 2025.

    I was raised as a cessationist. That means I was raised to believe that all miracles and revelations and spiritual gifts ENDED when Jesus ASCENDED and the New Testament was finished. Only the APOSTLES were able to access them. This means that when the last apostle died, those special abilities ceased. They were only necessary to validate Jesus and the church to help it get established, and would not be needed after that. Is that true? This study investigates that view, and you might just be surprised what Scripture actually teaches in this area. (By the way, if I was a paid preacher at most any kind of church today, WHATEVER position I took would most probably get me fired. The good news for me is that since you don't pay me you can't fire me. Therefore I am free to just teach what the BIBLE says on this.) I just want to “speak where the Bible speaks and be silent where the Bible is silent,” but the Bible conclusions here might shock you… Part 8 is a SUMMARY.

She also couldn't remember the home she grew up in. These were more pieces of the puzzle in Anita's life that didn't go together and made no sense. Her sister gave her a few sentencefragments that left hints of shared abuse, but a wall was placed where she could not pursue that further.

    Send us a textWhat if those moments we dismiss as "coincidences" are actually glimpses into something more profound? After spending most of my life as a determined atheist who believed spiritual people were simply not intelligent enough to rely on themselves, I've undergone a remarkable transformation.Sixteen years into sobriety and eleven years into an unexpected spiritual journey, I've completely reimagined what "God" means to me. No longer the rigid cultural construct I was taught to reject, I've discovered what I call "the whisper of God"—that intelligent, intuitive knowing within that guides us toward clarity, peace, and compassion when we're willing to listen.But recently, I've been drawn toward something even more intriguing: the realm of miracles. Those moments when you think of someone and they immediately call. When you feel compelled to reach out to a friend who, unbeknownst to you, is in crisis. Are these really just random coincidences, or could they be something more?After reading a book called "Signs," I decided to conduct a personal experiment, asking my departed father and sister to send me specific signs—butterflies for my dad and hearts for my sister. What followed defies logical explanation: a monarch butterfly appearing outside my window during a coaching call, and later, a profound experience in Texas involving a hotel clerk named Jessica (my sister's name) who assigned me to the 13th floor (the date of my sister's passing was March 13th). When I shared this synchronicity with her, she broke down crying, confiding her struggle with alcoholism and believing our meeting was divinely arranged.Whether you're a spiritual seeker or a confirmed skeptic, I invite you to join me on this experiment into the unknown. What might we discover if we remain open to possibilities beyond our understanding? Share your own experiences with signs or synchronicities—I'd love to hear your story as we navigate this mysterious terrain together.Support the show#thetruthaboutaddiction#sobriety#the12steps#recovery#therapy#mentalhealth#podcasts#emotionalsobriety#soberliving#sobermindset#spirituality#spiritualgrowth#aa#soberlife#mindfulness#wellness#wellnessjourney#personalgrowth#personaldevelopment#sobermovement#recoveroutloud#sobercurious#sobermoms#soberwomen#author#soberauthor#purpose#passion#perspective

    Day 1 - Movie Session - Strawberry Fields Festival 2025 In this thought-provoking session from the 2025 Strawberry Fields Festival, spiritual teacher David Hoffmeister delves into the nature of perception, the illusion of fragmentation, and the ego's role in shaping our perspective on reality. Using insights from A Course in Miracles, he challenges listeners to reconsider how they see the world, not as a collection of external problems but as a perceptual challenge within the mind. Hoffmeister explores themes of separation, projection, and the ultimate correction of error—a profound discussion on awakening and the power of perception.

    Victor Hugo (1802 - 1885)Dès 1828 Hugo avait conçu Note Dame de Paris et se rend plusieurs fois à la cathédrale. Il ressuscite le Paris d'autrefois avec sa cathédrale. Notre-Dame de Paris retrace la destinée tragique au Moyen Âge d'une jeune bohémienne, Esméralda, victime du désir qu'elle inspire à trois hommes. Convoitée par l'archidiacre Frollo, elle est enlevée sur son ordre par le sonneur de cloches difforme de Notre-Dame, Quasimodo, puis est sauvée par le beau capitaine Phoebus dont elle s'éprend. Mais Frollo, jaloux, poignarde Phoebus, et n'intervient pas lorsque Esméralda est accusée de ce meurtre. Elle est emprisonnée, puis délivrée, cette fois, par Quasimodo, épris d'elle, qui l'entraîne au sein de l'inviolable cathédrale. Les truands de la cour des Miracles, inquiets de sa disparition, assaillent l'édifice, et livrent, sans s'en douter, Esméralda à son pire ennemi, Frollo. Arrêtée, la jeune fille sera pendue sous l'oeil cynique de ce dernier. Quasimodo, enfin édifié sur son «bienfaiteur» Frollo, le précipite du haut des tours de Notre-Dame, et se laisse ensuite mourir dans les bras d'Esméralda dans le charnier où elle repose.

    MEANING MAKING MACHINES

    On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, we're exploring how we're all "meaning-making machines.”We dive into how basically, our brains are constantly trying to make sense of everything and everyone that happens to us. I break down how we both consciously and subconsciously assign meaning to events, experiences, and environments, and often with a negative spin - thanks to our brain's built-in negativity bias.I also share some powerful insights from Viktor Frankl, a neurologist, psychologist, and Holocaust survivor who taught and wrote in his book - Man's Search for Meaning - that finding meaning can help us survive anything. Something that I've learned over the years? We actually have a choice in how we choose to interpret our experiences.We can choose to see things through a lens of love or fear, and that choice can totally transform our perspective. But here's the crucial part - while we get to choose the meaning for our own lives…We can't and shouldn't decide the meaning for other people's experiences. Telling someone, "Everything happens for a reason" when they're grieving or suffering isn't helpful - it's dismissive. Sometimes things just don't make sense, ​no matter how hard we try to figure it out, or want to make meaning of it. So, I encourage us all to be aware of the stories you're telling yourself, choose a perspective that empowers you, and remember that you don't have to or may not be able to understand everything.Sometimes the mystery is part of the journey.If we can “work with what happens”, find our joy, and keep moving forward… we can gradually, but inevitable turn our stories into our glory! ❤️ KK'S KEY TAKEAWAYS:•​ Humans are naturally wired to assign meaning to their experiences, often subconsciously and with a tendency towards negativity.•​ We have the power to choose how we interpret the events of our lives.•​ Viktor Frankl's philosophy teaches that finding meaning can help us survive almost anything, even in the most challenging circumstances.•​ Our brain's meaning-making process is a survival mechanism that helps us feel safer by trying to make sense of our experiences.•​ While we can control the meaning we assign to our own life, we cannot and should not dictate meaning for others people's experiences.•​ Saying things like "Everything happens for a reason") - can be harmful and dismissive of genuine suffering.•​ Some experiences will never make sense. Sometimes, acceptance is part of the healing process.•​ Shifting our perspective from "This happened to me" to "This happened for me" can be helpful and transformative, but this shift must come naturally from within and not be forced.•​ Our meaning-making ability is a skill we can develop, improve and update, by gaining new insights, experiences, and personal growth.BIO:Spiritual mentor and writer Karen Kenney uses humor and dynamic storytelling to bring a down-to-earth, no-BS perspective to self-development Bringing together tools that coach the conscious and unconscious mind, Karen helps clients deepen their connections with Self, and discover their unique understandings of spirituality.

    Send us a textIn today's talk, we explored how fear arises and how it is corrected according to A Course in Miracles.✨ Key points:Fear signals inner misalignment.It arises when what you want conflicts with what you do, revealing hidden will conflicts.God's Will and your true will are never separate.Strain and fear come only from believing they are. When you remember your will is one with God's, action becomes effortless.Fear comes from lack of love.The only remedy is perfect love, which is the Atonement – the recognition that separation never occurred.You cannot truly will without love.Willing without love is an ego illusion. Your real will is always aligned with love and creation.Fear of your own thoughts keeps you from recognizing your mind's true power.Only loving thoughts are real; fearful or angry thoughts have no true creative effect, though they appear to produce suffering within the dream.Acting out anger reinforces separation and suffering.Correction is not suppression, but seeing anger as a call for love, choosing a new perception.✨ Integration reflection:“Where am I still believing my will conflicts with God's Will, and what would shift if I remembered they are the same?”This section invites us to see fear not as something to fight, but as a signal to return to love and realign with truth.See all of my Offerings HereSupport the show

    The "holy ego" is a trap, where it seems spiritual and is about keeping the peace, but isn't. It's ridden with guilt, one upping, and tolerating others. This perpetuates fear and judgement. Whereas the true Self, our spirit self, does not take the bait and knows none of the drama means anything at the end of the day, and how that is true Forgiveness for the sake of peace. Tune into this week's episode to learn how loving ourselves is the ultimate way to let go of others grievances. The players showing up are just a reflection of our minds. Learning to forgive has value at all levels, but it will be a happy day when we can really Forgive from a place that knows this is all a projection, that we are all innocent, and none of this suffering has any part in reality.   Listen and watch our podcast, now streaming on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chrissyatley1 To learn more about readings and coaching, with Chris and Amy, visit: https://chrisatley.com Chris Atley Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisatley/ Amy Yates Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/connectivesoul

    Daily Emunah Podcast - Daily Emunah By Rabbi David Ashear

    A young man was diagnosed with leukemia, Lo Aleinu. Baruch Hashem, he is now responding well to treatment. One day, his rabbi noticed that he was praying the Amidah with deep concentration and asked what inspired such intense kavanah. The young man replied that his doctor had recently explained to him how cancer begins. He said, "If even one single cell in the body mutates and begins to do the wrong thing, and then multiplies, it can become cancer." The young man continued, "I learned that the human body has more than 37 trillion cells, and all it takes is for just one to go off track." This struck him deeply. He began to think about the 37 trillion cells in his body that were doing exactly what they were supposed to, every moment. He realized how much he owed Hashem and felt an urge to say thank you for each and every one. So he did the math: if he wanted to say thank you for each cell, and it took just two seconds per "thank you" with real kavanah, and he did it nonstop 24 hours a day, how long would it take? His calculation came out to nearly 2.5 million years . That's what inspired him to say the Amidah with more heart and awareness—because he realized how Hashem is sustaining him with countless daily miracles. Each microscopic cell in our body is like a miniature city, with roads, factories, and workers. Cells contain tiny "machines" that produce energy, repair damage, send signals, and make proteins. Red blood cells deliver oxygen to every part of the body, completing a round trip in just one minute. There are about 25 trillion red blood cells alone. The cells send chemical messages to each other that instruct them to grow, heal, or repair. The brain, meanwhile, has 86 billion neurons firing electrical signals at lightning speed. Inside each cell lies a copy of a person's DNA, a blueprint so compact that if stretched out, it would measure six feet long—but it's packed inside something invisible to the eye. Even as we sleep, these trillions of cells continue to work— repairing damage, rebuilding muscles, cleaning waste and growing new tissues. —without pause. We could never fully thank Hashem for all He does for us. But we do get an opportunity each time we say "Asher Yatzar" to acknowledge and appreciate the intricate wonders of our body. We conclude that berachah by saying: רופא כל בשר ומפליא לעשות — "Healer of all flesh and Performer of wonders." Those wonders include our immune system, our blood cells, our nerve cells, our brain cells, our skin, our organs—and everything else that keeps functioning perfectly without our even noticing. Rebbetzin Silverstein recently shared a remarkable story. A mother had a child who could not control his bladder or bowels, and because of it, he was unable to attend school. Doctors could not help, and the parents were devastated. Then, the mother learned about the segulah of saying Asher Yatzar slowly, with kavanah, standing still, and reading it from a printed card. She began doing this every single time. Just a few weeks later, her son was miraculously healed. The doctors were stunned. The mother also said that recently, while shopping, she needed to use the restroom but couldn't find her Asher Yatzar card. She felt torn—not wanting to lose her kavanah. Just then, as if sent from Heaven, a man walked in and hung up an Asher Yatzar card on the wall. She was overwhelmed with gratitude. Hashem had answered her need at the perfect moment. We could thank Hashem every minute of our lives and still not come close to what He deserves. But the thanks we do give—if offered with heart and focus—can be incredibly powerful. Let us treasure every breath, every heartbeat, and every functioning cell—and use our moments of awareness to thank the One who never stops giving.
