SEND ME A TEXT MESSAGE NOWA video is making the rounds and it is uglier than anything we have seen before.It looks like politics but it feels like something much more dangerous.It is not just another clip meant to stir people up.This one pushes a line of bigotry that should never be crossed.Then comes the next blow.The military is suddenly the target of open insults.Those who serve are mocked, their standards questioned, their sacrifices belittled.What happens when the people in uniform are treated as pawns instead of protectors?What does it mean when the message coming from the top leaves even loyal service members uneasy?Words are being thrown like weapons.Loyalty is being demanded in ways that sound more like orders from a dictator than a president.And here we go again…it is SHUTDOWN time in America!The doors are closed. The checks are stopped. And the government is broken.History has shown what happens when a shutdown drags on.The same nightmare is repeating itself all over again.Amid all of this Jane Fonda steps into the spotlight.Her move raises a question that cuts deeper than politics. Is this the spark of a new fight to protect free speech itself?Where does that lead now?What happens when voices from the past collide with the chaos of today?Send me your thoughts and comments:WolfPackTalks@gmail.comAWorldGoneMadPodcast@gmail.com

Today, the gloves are off. This episode isn't about comfort. It's about confronting evil head-on: murder, shootings, terror, chaos, and the culture's deafening drumbeat of despair. Evil is real. Evil is loud. But Christ is louder—He is already victorious.We remember courage—in the face of Charlie Kirk's murder, in the shadow of 9/11, amid violence that threatens to numb our souls. The cost? Opposition. Mockery. Media that silences truth-tellers.But the ultimate truth stands tall: Jesus is still Lord. Evil may roar, but its days are numbered.So, C-Suite leader—when evil stares you down, will you stand, speak, shine? Or will you hide?Buckle up. This one's raw, real, and rooted in unshakeable truth."I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world." – John 16:33Episode Highlights:05:16 - Part of the reason evil seems louder today is because the church has been too quiet. We've retreated into our comfort zones. We've hidden behind the four walls of the church building. We've let culture define morality instead of boldly declaring what God says is true. And when the church is silent, evil doesn't take a day off. Evil instead fills the church's void.31:29 - "This is likely going to sting a little bit, but you're going to have to deal with it because it needs to be said, if your faith is private, it's utterly, completely and totally useless. Evil doesn't tremble at personal faith. Evil trembles when faith becomes public. Evil doesn't fear Christians who attend church on Sunday and blend in the rest of the week. No, evil fears Christians who carry Christ into the workplace, the boardroom, the classroom, and even the streets.37:41 - Here's the bottom line for you today. If you're a Christian, your hope is not tied to whether the headlines improve tomorrow. It's tied to the unshakable, immovable, unstoppable victory of Jesus Christ. Evil is loud, yes, but it's temporary. Evil is real, yes, but it's already defeated. Evil feels overwhelming, yes, but it cannot outlast the promises of God. So, Christian soldier, lift your head, straighten your shoulders and remind yourself and the entire world our hope is alive. His name is Jesus Christ, and he's already won.Connect with Paul M.

God should not be mocked, for He does what He says and He follows through. Yet in the world today, groups possessed by false ideologies go out of their way to mock Him. Sadly, we saw this transpire during the Jubilee Year in Rome when the so-called "LGBT" community invaded St. Peter's Basilica to spread their false beliefs in defiance of divine and natural law.

As seen on Guteld!, Greg says the Democrats have to stop their demonization of conservatives, which has inspired violence. Greg shows a compilation of what some notable Democrats have said about ICE. Greg says Democrats should resort to mockery rather than demonization. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

WARNING: Questionable English accents. Mockery of common British sayings.The two talk about their eighth anniversary and how Jett the Corgi keeps scratching people. Review of The Conjuring and the Conjuring II.

The adventurers began this session crammed into the cellar of a decrepit Vallaki house, hidden by the wereraven Dannika Martikov after their chaotic escape from the gallows. Radley Fullthorn, the Human Eldritch Knight, and Daermon Cobain, the Elf Arcane Trickster, were unconscious, dragged to safety by allies while Urihorn Tenpenny, the Halfling Beastmaster, and his panther kept watch. Above, Wachter's patrols rattled doors and questioned villagers, searching for fugitives.When Radley and Daermon regained consciousness, the group debated their next move. Their companion Traxidor, the Half-elf Cleric of Light, had been executed. Worse, his body was strung up in public. In Barovia, corpses are not only reminders of mortality but tools of terror. Radley recalled earlier visions of hanged comrades — Valen'eir's ghost and Baron Vallakovich's lynching — all echoes of this grim moment. Barovia repeats its cruelties, each cycle sharper than the last.The group considered a desperate plan. Perhaps the Abbot at Krezk could resurrect Traxidor, if they could reclaim his body. Dannika scouted the gates, reporting guards and wardens everywhere. She armed Radley with studded leather and a raven-crested shield, a sign of the Keepers of the Feather, the wereraven resistance. Urihorn revealed he could heal and offered Van Richten's potion. Plans set, they waited for nightfall.At the square, Traxidor's corpse swayed in the dark. Four guards stood watch. Daermon and Radley approached disguised as drunks, hoping to lower suspicion. Urihorn, hidden above with bow drawn, covered them. The ruse worked. Guards jeered, ready to shake down “drunkards.” The ambush was swift: Daermon slid a dagger through a heart, Radley crushed another, Urihorn's arrows dropped the rest. One fleeing man burned alive from Radley's fire bolt, another fell pierced by arrows. No mercy tonight.Then laughter echoed. Lady Wachter's voice boomed unnaturally loud, mocking their efforts as predictable. Her image shimmered nearby. Daermon lunged, cleaving her form — but his blade passed through. She was only an illusion.The air rippled. From portals spilled fiends: Spined Devils, winged horrors firing volleys of burning barbs, and a towering Barbed Devil, stinking of brimstone, its hide covered in jagged spines, its eyes glowing with malice. Lady Wachter had summoned servants of Asmodeus, lord of the Nine Hells.The battle turned desperate. Spines rained. Hellfire burned. Radley's fire bolt splashed harmlessly against the devils' infernal resistances. Urihorn loosed arrow after arrow, panther snarling. Daermon dodged, struck, and poured Van Richten's potion down Radley's throat to keep him alive. The cleric's corpse swung like bait, pierced by spines meant for Radley.Urihorn found a mark — one devil burst into ash. But more pressed on. Radley cut the noose, slinging Traxidor's body over his shoulder. Spines pierced the corpse but missed his living flesh. Devils chased them down alleys, fireballs crashing, barbs flying. Together, the adventurers staggered toward the Blue Water Inn, wounded, burdened, pursued. The city itself seemed to close in.Barovia always twists rescue into torment. They had slain guards, claimed Traxidor's body, even destroyed a devil. But they remained hunted, battered, and uncertain if they could even reach sanctuary. Wachter's laughter still rang in their ears.HeroesRadley: Human Eldritch Knight, fighter with sword and fire magic.Daermon: Elf Arcane Trickster, rogue with stealth and illusions.Urihorn: Halfling Beastmaster Ranger, partnered with a black panther.Traxidor (fallen): Half-elf Cleric of Light, executed by Wachter.Sören (fallen): Aasimar Paladin, slain earlier by the Reeve.

Separately, Newmarket-on-Fergus Fianna Fáil Councillor David Griffin has called for an audit of areas across the MD, such as Shannon Town Park, that are illegal dumping blackspots and would benefit from the installation of CCTV. The local authority's Environment Section has pledged to undertake a "comprehensive audit" of public complaints relating to illegal dumping in public areas. Once the review is complete, the Environment Section says it will "assess and determine any necessary actions to address the issues identified". Councillor Griffin believes it "makes a mockery" of the legal system if illegal dumpers aren't penalised.

Today, we go to war against the blasphemy infecting our culture. Cynthia Erivo. Award-winning actress. Broadway darling. But this isn't about accolades—it's about audacity. Erivo took the world stage and mocked our Savior. A twisted portrayal of Jesus Christ—applauded by the world, cheered by the media, and met too often by silence from the Church.Let's be clear: To honor Christ means calling out blasphemy. Standing when others fold. Speaking when others cower. Because Jesus is not mocked—He is still Lord, still reigning, still the only way, the only truth, the only life.Here's your charge, brothers and sisters—when the world drags Christ through the mud, will you stay silent… or stand up? Buckle up. This episode is raw, real, and rooted in truth. "Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life." –Galatians 6:7Episode Highlights:02:31 – How do we, as followers of Christ respond when our Savior is mocked? I mean, do we stay silent and simply pray for the person that is committing this blasphemy? Do we shrug our shoulders and tell ourselves, well, the world hates Jesus, so what do you expect? Or do we rise up? Do we call out the sin for what it is? Do we rally together as Believers and push back against a culture that thinks mocking God is hilarious. 03:58 – And today we're going to unpack what happened. We're going to look at what the Bible says about mocking God. We're going to expose the double standard in our culture. And most importantly, we're going to give you a roadmap for how to respond when Christ is attacked. Because it's not a matter of if this will happen again. It's a matter of when this will happen again. But before we get into all that, let's do what we always do. Let's go before the throne of grace.23:45 – Let me add one more layer here, real quick. Mockery of Christianity is also a tool of control. Think about it. When Hollywood, the media and universities constantly mock Jesus. They're not just insulting him, they're sending a message. Something like this: If you take your faith too seriously, we will laugh at you, we will ridicule you, and we will treat you like a fool. And let's be honest, it works. A lot of Christians stay silent because they're afraid of being mocked themselves. But remember what Jesus said in Matthew 5:11: Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Blessed, not cursed, not embarrassed. Blessed. When we are mocked, we share in the sufferings of Christ. Connect with Paul M. NeubergerWebsite

With Persian King Artaxerxes' permission and timber in hand, Nehemiah reaches Jerusalem, surveys the ruined walls by night, and calls to the remnant: “Let us rise up and build.” Mockery from Sanballat, Tobiah, and Geshem (symbolizing the enemies of God's people on all sides) hears from a confident Nehemiah, “The God of heaven will make us prosper!” This section demonstrates prudent planning, courageous leadership, and trust in God for success.  The Rev. Peter Burfeind, pastor of Our Savior Lutheran Church in Union City, MI, and Agnus Dei Lutheran Church in Marshall, MI, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Nehemiah 2.  To learn more about Our Savior and Agnus Dei, visit facebook.com/oursaviorunioncity and agnusdeimarshall.com From rubble to renewal, Nehemiah shows how the Lord rebuilds not just walls but hearts. Brick by brick and prayer by prayer, we follow God's people through repentance, courageous leadership, fierce opposition, covenant renewal, and joyful dedication. This verse-by-verse series keeps Law and Gospel front and center, tracing the story from burned gates to the greater Builder — Christ Jesus — who secures a city that cannot fall. Expect honest history, practical application, and the steady comfort of God's promises when the work is heavy and critics are loud. Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

Episode 141: Don't Pile On. Pray On.Today's episode tears the mask off cancel culture. A high-profile CEO and his HR director—a kiss cam scandal explodes across the internet. Mockery spreads. Memes multiply. Christians join the mob.But at C-Suite for Christ, we flip the script. We don't throw stones—we pray. We don't laugh at a fall—we grieve. We don't feed the frenzy—we fight the spiritual battle on our knees.Because Jesus is still Lord—even when the world feasts on shame. He is grace in scandal, truth in chaos, hope for the fallen, and a cross for every sinner—including you and me.The world is watching. The mob is howling. The spotlight is coming. What will you do when your moment of truth arrives?Buckle up. This one's raw, real, and rooted in Scripture.But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: “God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.” (James 4:6)Key takeaway:06:24 - The idolatry of being right, the idol of moral superiority, the counterfeit gospel of cancel culture. Because here's the hard truth. When we mock others to feel righteous, we become Pharisees ourselves. When we laugh at the downfall of others to boost our own image, we become spiritual cannibals. You see, we're supposed to be salt and light, not gasoline on the fire. Instead of being known for mercy, we're becoming known for memes. Instead of being known for prayer, we're known for posts. And instead of pointing people to Jesus, we point fingers at them.23:07 - Let us not be known as the people who laugh loudest when others fall. Let us be known as those who pray the hardest. Let us be the ones—let us not be the ones who cancel. Let us be the ones who cover in prayer. Let us not reflect the culture. Let us reflect Christ. Don't pile on. Pray on.27:09 - Fighting like Christ means confronting sin with scripture, not shame. It means holding people accountable while holding the cross in front of them. It means saying, yes, what you did was wrong. But you're not beyond redemption. You're not beyond healing. You're not beyond hope. That is the power of the gospel. ... If the Gospel isn't good news for them, it's not good news for you either. If it doesn't reach the person caught in sin, it doesn't reach the prideful Pharisee either. We all need grace. We all need truth. We all need Jesus.Connect with Paul M. NeubergerWebsite

The media is mocking prayer and Jeff talks about it.

In this episode, you'll journey through the trials and tribulations faced by the Bodhisattva, who was born into wealth yet felt increasingly disconnected from the material world. As he sought to embody the perfection of equanimity, he chose to leave behind his riches and venture into a life of simplicity and self-discovery. Through his interactions with disrespectful children and wise villagers, we witness how he navigated the spectrum of human behavior, responding with a remarkable neutrality that teaches us how to approach both admiration and disdain with a tranquil heart. Join Margaret as she unpacks this enlightening tale, encouraging listeners to reflect on their own lives and the ways in which they can cultivate a sense of balance amid the inevitable chaos around them. Together, let's aspire to develop the same unshakeable equanimity that the Bodhisattva demonstrated, fostering a deeper understanding of our emotions and reactions. 

Cynthia Erivo, a queer woman, just starred as Jesus in Jesus Christ Superstar. Culture is calling it powerful and revolutionary. I'm calling it what it is: blasphemy. In this video, I break down the dangerous theology of Jesus Christ Superstar, why Hollywood loves to rewrite Jesus, and how feminism, queer ideology, and progressive theology have hijacked the gospel for their own agenda. This isn't about race or sexuality… it's about truth. God will not be mocked. Jesus is not a character. He is the risen King, and He's coming back.       -       Follow me on Instagram: @AngelamarieScafidi       -       Ways to Support the Show:      

In today’s world, dishonoring authorities is the normal thing. Mockery is entertainment. Wherever you look, authority is questioned and rejected, without shame. But God calls His people to create a culture of honor, even when parents, pastors, and civil authorities—whom we’re called to honor—are dishonorable. This doesn’t mean ignoring their sin or enabling abuse. But it does mean that we recognize their position, even when they fall short. How do we wisely navigate this challenge? Honor the position, not the behavior. Don’t gossip. Establish guardrails when you spend time with dishonorable parents, so you don’t put your family in harm’s way. Choose forgiveness over bitterness. Express care, even when it’s undeserved. Learn how to live successfully under authorities who act dishonorably, and the blessings will flow, for God promises blessings when we honor them.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Jim Kuhn from Sun City West, AZ. Thank you for your generosity and partnership in Project 23. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 15:21–32: And they compelled a passerby, Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to carry his cross. And they brought him to the place called Golgotha (which means Place of a Skull). And they offered him wine mixed with myrrh, but he did not take it. And they crucified him and divided his garments among them, casting lots for them, to decide what each should take. And it was the third hour when they crucified him. And the inscription of the charge against him read, “The King of the Jews.” And with him they crucified two robbers, one on his right and one on his left. And those who passed by derided him, wagging their heads and saying, “Aha! You who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save yourself, and come down from the cross!” So also the chief priests with the scribes mocked him to one another, saying, “He saved others; he cannot save himself. Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross that we may see and believe.” Those who were crucified with him also reviled him. — Mark 15:21–32 Jesus is weak beneath the weight of the cross. He stumbles. The soldiers seize a bystander, Simon of Cyrene, and thrust the heavy wood onto his back. Simon carries a burden not his own—step by step—toward Golgotha. This is more than a historical detail. It's a vivid picture: God himself, bowed under sin's weight, and a stranger pressed into service to share that load. Then the mockery continues: The crowd taunts, “Save yourself!” The religious leaders scoff, “He can't even save himself.” The criminals beside him jeer in scorn. And yet, Simon, an unwilling participant, bears the cross so that Jesus can advance toward Calvary, where every sin would be nailed away. Simon's forced compassion begs a question for us: Whose burden should we willingly bear? The lonely neighbor? The struggling friend? The newcomer in church? The oppressed, the overlooked, the rejected? We're not called to carry Christ's cross—that's done. We're called to carry one another's burdens as he carried ours (Gal. 6:2). When you see someone bowed under life's weight, don't pass by. Step in. Accept the unexpected call. Shoulder their load—if only for a moment. Because in that act, you reflect the One who bore the world's sin. So, who will it be today? #CarryBurdens, #Mark15, #CompassionInAction ASK THIS: Why do you think Simon was compelled rather than volunteered? What keeps us from stepping in to share another's burden? Who in your life needs you to “carry their cross” today? How does bearing burdens reflect Christ's love? DO THIS: Reach out today to someone under pressure—send a text, make a call, offer a meal, or simply say, “I see your burden. How can I help carry it?” PRAY THIS: Jesus, you carried the cross for me. Show me who around me needs someone to bear their burden. Give me willing hands and a compassionate heart. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Burdens."

For over two decades, the legacy media failed catastrophically in its responsibility to expose Jeffrey Epstein's criminal empire. Rather than investigate, they actively suppressed the story, ignored survivors, buried leads, and protected the powerful individuals within Epstein's orbit. Outlets like ABC, NBC, and The New York Times had ample evidence but chose access over accountability, prestige over principle. When whistleblowers and independent journalists tried to sound the alarm, they were smeared as conspiracy theorists. The media wasn't just absent—they were complicit, operating as PR agents for the very elites they were supposed to scrutinize. Even after Epstein's 2019 arrest, the media presented the scandal as if it were new, rewriting history to conceal their cowardice and protect their image.Now, years later, those same outlets have shamelessly returned to the story, parroting talking points and revelations that the so-called “conspiracy crowd” had documented long ago. They grandstand as if they were in the trenches, all while ignoring their own role in shielding the system that allowed Epstein to thrive. Their sudden concern is not about justice—it's about optics, narrative control, and political expediency. The Epstein scandal is not just about one man—it's about the elite networks that enabled him and the media institutions that kept those networks safe. Until the press admits its role in the cover-up and holds everyone accountable—not just those who are no longer useful—its credibility remains broken. They were never the watchdogs. They were the gatekeepers. And their gates are stained with blood.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Even after Epstein's 2019 arrest, the media presented the scandal as if it were new, rewriting history to conceal their cowardice and protect their image.Now, years later, those same outlets have shamelessly returned to the story, parroting talking points and revelations that the so-called “conspiracy crowd” had documented long ago. They grandstand as if they were in the trenches, all while ignoring their own role in shielding the system that allowed Epstein to thrive. Their sudden concern is not about justice—it's about optics, narrative control, and political expediency. The Epstein scandal is not just about one man—it's about the elite networks that enabled him and the media institutions that kept those networks safe. Until the press admits its role in the cover-up and holds everyone accountable—not just those who are no longer useful—its credibility remains broken. They were never the watchdogs.

For over two decades, the legacy media failed catastrophically in its responsibility to expose Jeffrey Epstein's criminal empire. Rather than investigate, they actively suppressed the story, ignored survivors, buried leads, and protected the powerful individuals within Epstein's orbit. Outlets like ABC, NBC, and The New York Times had ample evidence but chose access over accountability, prestige over principle.

Welcome back to another episode of Not Woody Actually — where we go somewhat off the rails and discuss things even more loosely related to Woody Allen than our Adjacent series.   In this episode, Don takes a solo deep-dive into a long-overdue topic: Patrick McGilligan's 2025 biography of Woody Allen, A Travesty of a Mockery of a Sham.   This is no light read — we're talking 848 pages or 34 hours on Audible of dense, detailed Woody Allen history. But it might just be the most comprehensive biography of Allen ever written not by the man himself. Don lightly unpacks the book's tone, structure, strengths, and shortcomings — and shares a few surprising insights along the way.   With help from our trusty AI Assistant, we introduce the author, explore the book's critical reception, and — as a bonus — Don reveals how reading Sham led him to a rare, long-forgotten Woody Allen biography… which in turn became a side project that true fans will definitely appreciate.   We also want to apologize to those of you who've been waiting a while for this discussion. As mentioned in the intro, James and Don have been deep in conversation about the podcast's future — and that made this the perfect moment to release this solo recording instead of another Adjacent episode.   We hope you enjoy this shorter-than-usual but long-awaited episode — and if you've read Sham or have thoughts of your own, we'd love to hear from you. Drop your comments in our special tracked comment section linked below.   Thanks, as always, for your continued support and patience.

As mainstream media accused Donald Trump of misusing taxpayer funds for a luxury golf vacation in Scotland, the former president shocked critics by unveiling a historic $1.2 trillion trade agreement. The deal includes $750 billion in U.S. energy exports to Europe, $600 billion in European investment in America, and unprecedented tariff parity. The hosts dissect the media's failed narrative, contrast Trump's pro-America economic strategy with the globalist “Uniparty,” and warn of the deep state's escalating battle against him. Also on the horizon: new revelations in the Epstein case.

Comenzando con mi cobertura de la esta edición del Fantasía International Film Festival, estaré hablando sobre A Grand Mockery. El filme tiene una abstracción que invoca conversaciones e interpretaciones con las imágenes que presenta, sin embargo, su duración y su falta de rumbo afecta un poco la experiencia.

In this packed supplementary episode, we tackle all of the urgent global issues, ranging from Epstein file conspiracies to Matt's immense love of a fantasy game where dwarves punch ducks for fun. Along the way, we're joined by a stellar cast of commentators, including some old favourites.

In this sermon, Pastor Ricky Harris preaches from Mark 15:16–20, where Jesus is mocked. We sat with the weight of Jesus' suffering—every strike, every insult, every wound He took willingly. But we didn't stop there. We also looked at His victory. Jesus endured it all so we could be free, and because of His triumph over sin and death, we now have salvation! Listen to the sermon to learn more.

Andrew S. Berish. 2025. Hating Jazz: A History of Its Disparagement, Mockery, and Other Forms of Abuse. (U of Chicago Press, 2025) Some good words from the inside flap: “ A deep dive into the meaning behind the hatred of jazz.A rock guitarist plays four notes in front of one thousand people, while a jazz guitarist plays one thousand notes in front of four people. You might laugh or groan at this jazz joke, but what is it about jazz that makes people want to disparage it in the first place?Andrew S. Berish's Hating Jazz listens to the voices who have denounced, disparaged, and mocked the music. By focusing on the rejection of the music, Berish says, we see more holistically jazz's complicated place in American cultural life. Jazz is a display of Black creativity and genius, an art form that is deeply embedded in African American life. Though the explicit racial tenor of jazz jokes has become muted over time, making fun of jazz, either in a lighthearted or aggressive way, is also an engagement with the place of Blackness in America. An individual's taste in music may seem personal, but Berish's analysis of jazz hatred demonstrates that musical preferences and trends are a social phenomenon. Criticism of jazz has become inextricable from the ways we understand race in America, past and present. In addition to this form of criticism, Berish also considers jazz hate as a form of taste discrimination and as a conflict over genre boundaries within different jazz cultures.Both enlightening and original, Hating Jazz shows that our response to music can be a social act, unique to our historical moment and cultural context—we react to music in certain ways because of who we are, where we are, and when we are. “ Nathan Smith is a PhD candidate in Music Theory at Yale University nathan.smith@yale.edu Learn more about your ad choices.

Note: They play music but you won't hear it due to streaming rules. Boomer believes his prom song was "Candle In The Wind," a choice that surprised Gio. A caller celebrated Mike Brown's hiring as Knicks coach. The hosts then discussed high school class and prom songs, with Gio noting Boomer's supportive golf demeanor with one exception. Jerry's update covered the Yankees' loss to Toronto despite a comeback, and the Mets' win against the Brewers, featuring a Brandon Nimmo grand slam and Francisco Lindor's home run and All-Star starter nomination. Clayton Kershaw also achieved his 3,000th strikeout. The segment concluded by mentioning Green Day's "Good Riddance" as a common farewell song.

In a world awash with misinformation and disinformation, those who spread and benefit from the chaos have worked hard to brand fact-checking and counterspeech as a form of censorship — and it's a worryingly effective tactic. But there's one type of counterspeech that is very hard to evade: mockery and satire. One person who knows that very well is Ben Collins, CEO of Global Tetrahedron, which purchased The Onion last year. This week, Ben joins us on the podcast to talk about the incredible power of mockery in the social and political landscape.

Today, on the Voxology podcast, hosts Mike Erre and Tim Stafford discuss Jesus' example of cruciformity on the cross in forgiving his enemies. Tim and Mike explore various themes surrounding the life and death of Jesus, drawing parallels to contemporary issues and cultural narratives. They discuss the significance of the cross, the nature of betrayal and denial, and how Jesus responded to suffering with love and forgiveness. Further, they touch on the anti-empire narrative present in the Bible and the importance of curiosity and imagination in understanding faith today. But first, Mike and Tim discuss the intersection of faith and politics, particularly in light of recent developments regarding religious liberty and the role of the church in society. They explore the implications of political leaders invoking Christianity, the importance of prophetic voices in challenging the status quo, and the need for active resistance against injustice. The conversation emphasizes the significance of community engagement and the church's responsibility to embody justice and love in a polarized world. Gombis quote: “My job is to study the Bible and to think critically about how to attend to it most faithfully. I have come to see that this involves relentlessly excavating the self-deceptions that are necessary for me to feel comfortable in this world. My main challenge is that I inhabit an evangelical culture in America that will fight to the death to maintain its self-deceptions and its pursuit of comfort in this world."
