Mistaken identity

Pastor focuses in on Gamaliel's Speech found in Acts 5:34-39.   We know about Gamliel from the Bible, the writings of Josephus and rabbinical writings: Grandson of the Jewish teacher Hillel Especially influential ca 25-50 A.D. President of the Sanhedrin A devout and respected Pharisee Teacher of Saul of Tarsus (Acts 22:3)   In comparing Josephus' writings with the Bible we find an issue with Acts 5:36-37 "Some time ago Theudas appeared, claiming to be somebody, and about four hundred men rallied to him. He was killed, all his followers were dispersed, and it all came to nothing. After him, Judas the Galilean appeared in the days of the census and led a band of people in revolt. He too was killed, and all his followers were scattered."   The Controversy is the dating of the two men as this is what we know about them from Josephus:  Theudas - revolt at the time of the Roman procurator, Cuspius Faus (44-46 A.D.)  Judas the Galilean - rebellion in 6 A.D.    According to the Acts verses written by Luke, he quotes Gamaliel as saying that Judas the Galilean's rebellion came AFTER Theudas' revolt, but what we know about these two men  from Josephus, shows us that Judas the Galilean's rebellion came BEFORE Theudas' revolt.   The Alternatives we can consider: Josephus was correct, Luke was wrong Luke was correct, Josephus was wrong Both Luke and Josephus were correct.   Pastor leans toward "Both Luke and Josephus being correct."    In Josephus' writings we read of Judas the Galilean as having led a band of people in revolt in 6 A.D.    In Josephus' writings we also read that after the death of King Herod the Great (about 4 B.C.) many revolted. Josephus does not name them.but clearly these rebellions were BEFORE Judas' revolt. Consider this: Is it possible that one of those individuals was named Theudas? Then the writings of Josephus and the Bible align.   Additionally, Luke gives this insight, he tells us that Gamaliel said the following, "Judas the Galilean appeared in the days of the census and led a band of people in revolt. He too was killed, and all his followers were scattered."  Note that Gamaliel said ALL Judas' followers were scattered." But history shows us that Gamaliel saw Judas' rebellion as having come to nothing. However, about 25-30 years after Gamaliel spoke these words, those followers of Judas the Galilean not only were around, but had grown in number and ultimately triggered the revolt against Rome in 66 A.D.    What we see is an accurate account by Luke of what took place on the day the Apostles were flogged for speaking the name of Jesus and rejoiced for being worthy to suffer for His name.     Now What?

You've spent years believing certain things about yourself are just fixed. The control freak. The people pleaser. The one who shuts down when it all gets to be too much.Just your wiring. Just who you are.But what if these traits are actually a nervous system pattern, and this week you could start to change it?In episode 463 we named five patterns most women mistake for personality. Today it gets practical: how to take the one that's most active for you and actually start rewiring it.Not through willpower. Not all at once. But through one small, specific move, repeated until your nervous system learns it's safe to do something different.If awareness alone hasn't been enough to change your patterns, this is the episode that shows you what comes next.--

Have you ever felt like you're doing all the "right" things—reading the books, hiring the coaches, studying Human Design, Gene Keys, mindset, manifestation, or personal development—and yet your actual circumstances aren't changing? In this episode, Kehla unpacks a realization that has completely changed how she views self-awareness, business growth, Human Design, Gene Keys, and the coaching industry as a whole: It is possible to become incredibly self-aware without becoming more stable. It is possible to understand your patterns, wounds, shadows, authority, purpose, and energetics while still struggling with the same financial challenges, business instability, decision-making, capacity issues, and lack of structure. Kehla explores why insight can create the feeling of progress without creating actual movement, how personal development can become a loop of endless self-referencing, and why understanding a problem is not the same thing as changing it. She also shares the hard questions she's been asking herself around governance, recurring revenue, operational stability, and what it means to build a life and business that can actually hold you. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why insight and clarity are not the same thing • How Human Design and Gene Keys can become a loop when applied without action • The difference between interpretation and reality • Why self-awareness doesn't automatically create business growth • What governance means and why it matters • The question that completely changed how Kehla views stability, success, and personal development If you've been searching for more clarity, more alignment, or another breakthrough but still feel stuck in the same patterns, this conversation may help you see what's really happening.

Have you ever looked back at a relationship and thought: I don't even recognize who I became?You screamed. You snapped. You said things you never thought you were capable of saying. You lost yourself in ways that scared you. And somewhere along the way, you started to believe — maybe I'm the problem.That experience has a name. It's called reactive abuse. And it's one of the most psychologically disorienting dynamics in toxic relationships — and one of the most misunderstood.In this solo episode, Brianne breaks down exactly what reactive abuse is, how it quietly develops over months or years, and why so many deeply self-aware, empathic people end up carrying blame for a dynamic they didn't create alone.In this episode:What reactive abuse actually is — and the critical difference between a reaction and a pattern of abuseHow it develops (it rarely starts with a scream — it starts with tiny dismissals, silent treatment, and confusion)The role of trauma bonding and nervous system dysregulationWhy empathic people are especially vulnerable to this cycle10 specific signs you're currently inside a reactive abuse dynamic6 concrete steps for getting outWhat healing looks like on the other side — including why healthy love can feel unfamiliar, even flat, at firstThis episode isn't about excusing harmful reactions. It's about understanding the full picture — so you can stop carrying blame that was never entirely yours, and begin returning to the person you were before survival took over.If you've ever said "I became someone I hate" — this one's for you._____If you or anyone you know is struggling with addiction, depression, trauma, sexual abuse or feeling overwhelmed, we've compiled a list of resources at secretlifepodcast.com______ Have a topic you want to discuss on the show, email us at secretlifepodcast@icloud.com

We somehow got into the fact that Al and Eddie have the same urologist and how Al is a ‘penis hypochondriac'. Boomer got mistaken for Bill Clinton in the iPhone store while he was wearing a baseball cap.

We kicked off with the revelation of Al and Eddie's shared urologist followed by Boomer's mistaken identity as Bill Clinton at the iPhone store and a debate on tall Presidents. Jerry's update covered PGA Championship odds and the call of AJ Ewing's first MLB hit. We heard David Stearns' response to a Bruce Beck question, and welcomed Anthony Volpe back to the Yankees.

Show NotesWe start by dipping into the book with 50 arguments for God and a chapter “Jesus as God” which says that if we ditch 4th & 5thC debates and modern categories of Trinity, we see Jesus expressing his divinity in his own way.  It explains Jesus' caged language on this as Jesus needing to avoid being stoned for blasphemy.We look at some of the key passages in the gospels, in particular looking for differences between the author's view and Jesus' proclamations regarding whether he was God.  This leads on to the Liar Lunatic Lord argument made famous by CS Lewis, and the sceptics' 4th option “Legend”.  We look at the “Liar” option. And we offer you: Misquoted, Misunderstood, Mythologised and Mistaken.    Links:Books: “Evidence for God: 50 Arguments for Faith from the Bible, History, Philosophy and Science” by Mike Licona and William Dembski. CS Lewis - “Mere Christianity”Bart Ehrman - “How Jesus Became God”Richard Carrier's blog:https://www.richardcarrier.info/archives/20130Doubts Aloud Links:Please give feedback and ask questions using:  doubtsaloud@gmail.com

2. Monitor Lizards in the HomeIn Noosa, Queensland—an area described as "snake central"—a resident discovered a two-to-three-foot monitor lizard hiding under their bed. These reptiles are often mistaken for brown snakes because of their long, brownish-gray tails, but they are scaly, "dragon-like" creatures with very sharp teeth used for ripping apart small animals. Monitor lizards are highly intelligent and can slip into homes undetected while seeking warmth and shelter.A younger monitor lizard, like the one found in the bedroom, can weigh between 20 and 40 pounds, while a full-grown six-foot adult can reach 60 pounds of pure muscle. Jeremy notes that these creatures give off a distinctive scent that serves as a defensive mechanism, which should normally alert domestic guard dogs. He suggests that the lack of a dog like Dallas, Sailor, or Charlie allowed the lizard to enter the home unnoticed, warning that if a lizard can enter so easily, venomous snakes like red-belly blacks or pythons could follow. 2

In this episode, we perceive a subtle technique of persuasion, as portrayed in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 232, penned by Kodimangalathu Vaathuli Narchenthanaar. The verse is situated amidst the blooming Kino trees of the ‘Kurinji’ or ‘Mountain landscape’ and describes a ritual performed in Sangam times. காண் இனி வாழி, தோழி! பானாள்,மழை முழங்கு அரவம் கேட்ட, கழை தின்,மாஅல் யானை புலி செத்து வெரீஇ,இருங் கல் விடரகம் சிலம்பப் பெயரும்பெருங் கல் நாடன் கேண்மை, இனியே,குன்ற வேலிச் சிறுகுடி ஆங்கண்,மன்ற வேங்கை மண நாட் பூத்தமணி ஏர் அரும்பின் பொன் வீ தாஅய்வியல் அறை வரிக்கும் முன்றில், குறவர்மனை முதிர் மகளிரொடு குரவை தூங்கும்ஆர் கலி விழவுக் களம் கடுப்ப, நாளும்,விரவுப் பூம் பலியொடு விரைஇ, அன்னைகடியுடை வியல் நகர்க் காவல் கண்ணி,‘முருகு’ என வேலற் தரூஉம்பருவமாகப் பயந்தன்றால், நமக்கே. In this trip to the mountains, we get to hear the confidante say these words to the lady, pretending not to notice the man, who has arrived for his tryst with the lady, but making sure he’s in earshot: “See this, my friend, may you live long! In the middle of the night, hearing the thunderous roar of the rain cloud, a huge elephant feeding on bamboos, frightened that it's a tiger, runs away trumpeting aloud, making the huge mountain range resound in the man's mountain country. In a small hamlet, fenced by peaks, the Kino tree in the village centre blooms  brightly announcing auspicious days of marriage, and shed golden flowers from sapphire-hued bud stalks, which spread on wide rocky spaces, in the front yard of mountain men, who perform ‘Kuravai' dance with mature maiden, in those spaces of festivity, filled with uproar. Akin to that, every day, spreading flowers and sacrifice, mother wishing for protection of the well-guarded, fine mansion, seeks blessings of ‘Murugu' with rituals of ‘Velan'. Your relationship with the man from the mountain country has bestowed upon us, such a time in our lives!” Time to take a trek amidst the rocky terrain and learn of the challenges in the lady’s life! The confidante starts by beckoning her friend’s attention. Then she goes on to describe the man’s mountain country, and to do that, she brings forth an image of an elephant, startled by the sound of thunder, in the middle of the night, and thinking it’s the roar of the tiger, it scuttles away trumpeting, making the entire mountain range echo in fear. After that description of the man’s mountain country, the confidante goes on to describe how the ‘Vengai’ trees are in full bloom, and they are announcing the season of weddings had arrived. As these golden flowers fell on the rocky spaces in the front yards, mountain men and women perform the ‘Kuravai’ dance with much joy. Appearing akin to that field of festivities, was their own home, the confidante continues, why because mother had decided to curry favour with God ‘Murugu’, using the professional services of ‘Velan’ the priest and seek protection for their house, and to this end, the mother had spread flowers and other sacrificial offerings. Now, the confidante connects these happenings to the lady’s relationship with the man and concludes by wondering at the state they find themselves in now. To unravel the meanings, we have to understand the reason Mother is starting her ‘Murugu’ worship was because she had noticed the changes in her beloved daughter, who is apparently happy when she’s with the man, and whenever he leaves, she falls into despair and mother’s sharp eyes have caught this. Not knowing that the man is the reason for that, she goes about seeking Murugu’s help to alleviate the lady’s symptoms, implies the confidante. This is also reflected in the scene of the elephant, mistaking thunder for a tiger,  and echoes how the lady’s family has mistaken the consequence of the man’s relationship in the lady as ‘Murugu’s ire’. All this is to nudge the man to give up his temporary trysting, take steps to reinstate the lady’s honour and seek her hand in marriage. Yet again, the confidante choreographs that seamless ‘Kuravai’ dance between nature and culture to bring about permanent joy in the lady’s life!

AP correspondent Donna Warder reports on an accidental airstrike in Nigeria that killed dozens.

Just how absurd does the word ceasefire sounds when nobody actually stops firing? We're calling it a ceasefire, we are acting like it is a ceasefire, but the reality on the ground does not match the label. Missiles are still being launched, ships are still being threatened, and the Strait of Hormuz is effectively shut down despite whatever was signed on paper.That disconnect makes me question what kind of agreement was actually reached in the first place. If Iran agreed to open the strait and then immediately went back to restricting access and intimidating shipping, then either they never intended to follow through or they cannot enforce their own decisions. Neither option is particularly reassuring. When your main leverage is control over a critical global shipping lane, giving that up even briefly would be a major concession, so the reversal almost feels inevitable.I keep coming back to how much of this hinges on internal dynamics within Iran. The delegation that is set to meet with the United States this weekend includes both more moderate figures and hardliners tied to the Revolutionary Guard. That alone tells me that whatever comes out of those talks is going to be complicated. If the people at the table are not the same people controlling the missiles, then any agreement is going to have gaps.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.At the same time, the stakes are getting higher because the economic effects are no longer abstract. Oil prices are climbing again, shipping is disrupted, and you have thousands of people effectively stuck waiting for this situation to resolve. Iran's ability to pressure the global economy through the Strait of Hormuz feels like its most important card, and right now they are playing it as aggressively as they can.Back in Washington, the dysfunction is not helping anything. The DHS funding situation is still unresolved, and the Republican plan to split funding into separate reconciliation bills sounds shaky at best. The idea that lawmakers would pass a smaller bill now with promises about a larger one later, especially after the midterms, feels like something that is much easier to propose than to actually execute. It comes across as a sign that leadership does not have a clean path forward.There is also a broader sense that neither party is really in control of the moment. Republicans are struggling to deliver on basic governing tasks even with power, while Democrats are throwing out ideas like invoking the 25th Amendment in ways that do not seem grounded in how the process actually works. It creates this environment where everyone is reacting, but nobody is clearly leading. Stretching into the middle of April, the war is still active, negotiations are uncertain, and political systems on both sides are showing strain. You have to wonder what all of this leads up to.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:03 - Congress00:07:22 - Iran00:10:37: Zineb Riboua on the Iran War and China00:30:16 - Update and Melania Trump00:33:11 - DHS Shutdown and TSA Funding00:35:32 - 25th Amendment00:38:20 - Interview with Zineb Riboua, con't00:59:46 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Bad Dads Film Review goes full courtroom chaos this week with My Cousin Vinny (1992) — the fish-out-of-water legal comedy where two broke New York kids take a wrong turn into the Deep South… and somehow end up charged with murder because of a misunderstanding that starts with a can of tuna.Sidey finally ticks off a long-standing gap (he'd never seen it), and we break down why this film still works: a tight premise, a brilliant “outsider vs small-town system” vibe, and a courtroom structure that's way smarter than it has any right to be for a broad comedy. Joe Pesci turns up looking like he's wandered in from Goodfellas in cowboy boots, tries to blag his way through Alabama procedure, and gets repeatedly threatened with contempt by an all-time stern judge (Fred Gwynne, aka Herman Munster).What we talked aboutThe opening setup: poverty-tour Americana, the road trip, and the tuna “crime of the century” that accidentally feeds the tension.Mistaken confession comedy: how the boys basically incriminate themselves… for the wrong offence.Vinny's legal “credentials”: six tries at the bar, no trial experience, and a running battle with courtroom etiquette (“judge” vs “your honour”, the suit, the procedure handbook).The judge dynamic: why Fred Gwynne is the perfect straight man and how the contempt/lock-up beats become a recurring gag.Mona Lisa Vito (Marisa Tomei): the film's secret weapon — and why her role isn't just “girlfriend”, she's the brain that solves the case.Courtroom mechanics: cross-exams, witness deconstruction, and why parts of this film get referenced in law-school conversations as a simple example of dismantling testimony.The car/tire evidence: the key pivot from “they're screwed” to “hang on…” and the satisfying payoff when the story flips.Does it hold up? Runtime bloat (two hours is generous for this kind of comedy), how a lot of the plot collapses in the internet era, and why it's surprisingly not as offensively “of its time” as plenty of early-90s comedies.The Oscar chat: why Tomei winning Best Supporting Actress felt weird for a comedy… and whether it was actually deserved.Standard warning: we spoil the beats as we go, because that's the whole fun of a courtroom film.If you want a movie that's basically “competence porn disguised as a daft comedy” — where the final win is earned by actual reasoning rather than magic — this one's worth your time. (And yes: Tomei still, somehow, only gets more powerful with age.)Streaming note from the episode: available on Disney+.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

If everything you do is labeled a symptom of bipolar disorder, do you ever get to be yourself? In this episode, Gabe Howard (who lives with bipolar) and board certified psychiatrist Dr. Nicole Washington tackle one of the most frustrating — and rarely discussed — realities of living with bipolar disorder: when regular human behavior gets pathologized by friends, family, and even well-meaning supporters.Want to watch TV the whole weekend? Suddenly it's “depression.”Excited about a new idea or passion? You're being “grandiose.”Stumble over your words or get animated in conversation? Sounds like “mania.”Gabe shares deeply personal stories about having his ideas dismissed, his ambitions questioned, and his successes doubted, not by strangers, but by the people who loved him most. Dr. Nicole explains why loved ones become hypervigilant, how fear and trauma shape their reactions, and where concern crosses the line into harm. Listen and Learn: learn how to tell the difference between bipolar symptoms and typical human behavior understand why loved ones become hyper-alert and how fear drives their reactions how to have hard conversations without losing your support system why community and peer support matter when loved ones can't let go of fear This episode isn't about denying bipolar symptoms; it's about reclaiming your identity beyond the diagnosis. Because people with bipolar disorder deserve full lives, real dreams, and the freedom to be annoying, excited, ambitious, and human — just like everyone else. Cold Open Transcript: Gabe Howard: I don't think we're allowed to have these thoughts. Let's say that I was a person that did not live with bipolar disorder. And I came up with the pie-in-the-sky idea. The conversation is negative, but it also sort of moves forward. People with bipolar disorder don't get that. We just get shut down immediately, told that this is a symptom of our illness and that we need to cease this line of communication. And so they withdraw all that help, they withdraw all that information, and they leave us to fend for ourselves. Which actually puts us in a worse position.

There's a scientific reason you might be wired to think, "they all look alike to me." That concept was at the heart of a bizarre, extended interaction Amy and T. J. had with a woman who approached them at the airport yesterday. The stranger claimed she and her husband thought T. J. was former President Barack Obama. Then, things got uncomfortable.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
