Send us Fan MailWhat if the Bible has been giving us maternal pictures of God all along—and we've simply been overlooking them? Today we talk with Elizabeth Berget, author of “Love Like a Mother,” about God's compassion, childbirth, motherhood, grief, protection, exhaustion, and the surprising ways women's embodied experiences can illuminate the character of God. Together, we explore how seeing God as both Father and Mother can offer women a deeper sense of belonging, challenge unhealthy ideas about motherhood and spiritual performance, and invite the church into a fuller, more expansive theology.CHECK OUT OUR OCTOBER SIMULCAST EVENTWe're doing our sex talk and a one-day marriage conference!

TW: suicidal ideation, violence, homicidePART ONE: On the night of June 11, 2009, Joanne Witt was murdered by her teenage daughter Tylar and Tylar's boyfriend Steven "Boston" Colver, one or both of whom stabbed Witt 20 times on the upper half of her body. I sat down with Tylar (Charlie Wolf), to hear the story in her words. We talk about her childhood, meeting her boyfriend, Steve, the escalation of that romance and how it began to clash with the escalation of her mother's alcoholism. Charlie was sentenced to 15 years to life and Steven is currently serving life without parole. Charlie was released on parole in 2023. After her release, she remarried but her husband tragically overdosed on fentanyl last year. Charlie goes through her whole story, no holds barred, detailing her relationship and rationale behind her decision to murder her mother. We discuss life in prison and ultimately how she came to terms with what happened, her role in what happened and her journey of rehabiltation in prison.Today's episode is brought to you by Sacred Journey Recovery in San Diego, CA.

Beth Mazza and Victoria Sivrais, Co-Founders of Female Mavericks and co-authors of Entrepreneur Like a Mother, explain how moms build 7-figure businesses without venture capital by setting personal non-negotiables before choosing a business model, calculating a financial freedom number that includes runway, and building a kitchen cabinet of champions, connectors and compensators instead of attending networking events. They also share why 80% of running their firms was selling and why sales never equals profit. Learn more at https://femalemavericks.com/

Misty and her daughter Morgan talk honestly about growing up in a single-parent home — what it took, what it cost, and what's still unfinished.  Morgan is 39 now. She was 11 or 12 when her parents divorced — one of four kids growing up in what was, at the time, a pretty unusual thing among the families around her. In this episode, she and Misty sit down and just talk about it. What it was actually like. What's different about how divorce and single parenting look today versus 25 years ago. What nobody really explained to her as a kid. What she's learned...AND What is still very hard.  This isn't a teaching episode. It's Misty and Morgan, on mic instead of on the phone, having the kind of conversation they've been having for years — the real one, not the polished one.  ⚡ Somewhere in the middle of it, something shifted. Misty found herself sitting in real sorrow about what her kids went through — not trying to fix it, not explaining it away. And Morgan, on the other side of that, admitted it made her uncomfortable to watch. -ˋˏ✄┈┈┈┈ That's where this episode ends — not because the conversation was over, but because it wasn't. Misty comes back next week to respond to Morgan more fully.  ❤️‍

In one of the most intimate conversations ever shared on Love Is The Author, Jaymee sits down his mother Victoria Roberts for a conversation about how she survived a decade of horrific sexual abuse by her father, the silence and self-blame she carried, and the spiritual life raft that preserved something in her no one could touch. She recounts confronting her abuser, reclaiming her innocence, and discovering a forgiveness that neither excuses the unforgivable nor requires reconciliation. Mother and son read the letters that helped reroute the pain of their family history: hers to the father who violated her trust, and the prophetic letter she later sent Jaymee when addiction had brought him to his knees—a letter that did not shame him into changing, but loved him into remembering who he was. This is not a story about remaining a victim. It is a story about firm-footed honesty, sacred boundaries, and the rebel spirit that can emerge from the wreckage still capable of making peace.Content note: This episode contains candid discussion of childhood sexual abuse and addiction.SPONSORED BY: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.yerbamadre.com⁠Interested in Spiritual Mentorship with Jaymee? email: lacee@loveistheauthor.com to set up a free consultation, or visit: www.loveistheauthor.com/mentorship LITA PODCAST: hosted, produced, and recorded by Jaymee Carpenter. SOUND MIX: Chris FallerOPENING SONG: Tripura Sundari by Earthtones Music & Sheela BringiCLOSING SONG: Ocean Of Beauty by Earthtones Music & Sheela BringiInterested in Spiritual Mentorship with Jaymee? email: lacee@loveistheauthor.com to set up a free consultation, or visit: www.loveistheauthor.com/mentorship THiS SHOW is a LABOR of LOVE.

In Episode 3 of Mother on Trial: Inside the Lindsay Clancy Case, Mystery and Murder: Analysis by Dr. Phil, the case enters its most consequential phase as closing arguments end and the jury begins deliberating. Prosecutors argue that Lindsay Clancy knew what she was doing, deliberately created an opportunity to be alone with her children, carried out the killings in sequence, and demonstrated purposeful behavior before attempting suicide. The defense counters that Clancy was suffering from severe psychiatric illness, had deteriorated dramatically after childbirth, and lacked criminal responsibility at the time of the killings. Sarah Carden joins Dr. Phil and breaks down the competing arguments, Massachusetts' legal standard for lack of criminal responsibility, and why the prosecution, not the defense, carries the burden of proving criminal responsibility beyond a reasonable doubt. Now jurors are scrutinizing two critical pieces of evidence: Clancy's prescription medication bottles and the knife used in her suicide attempt, evidence that sits directly at the intersection of the defense's psychiatric argument and the prosecution's theory of deliberate, organized behavior. The ultimate question remains: Was Lindsay Clancy severely mentally ill but still criminally responsible, or was her mental disease so severe that the Commonwealth cannot prove she was responsible for what she did?Sponsored by SleepCreme: The foundation of health begins with sleep.

Democrats whined and complained profusely after Trump made the announcement that he was changing the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America. Bill Maher exposed them for who they are by sarcastically saying they...

Lauren and her husband Jason were living in Chicago's Lincoln Square neighborhood, raising young kids, feeling like two ships passing in the night. They put their condo up for sale, found a property they wanted to buy, and were ready to make the leap. Then COVID hit — the exact week the world shut down. The condo had already sold. The other deal fell through. Everything they owned was in storage. They had no home and no plan B. So they started over. The original vision had been an event barn, but gatherings weren't happening anymore. They shifted gears, came up to northern Michigan on vacation, and found 160 acres of land with views that took their breath away. They bought it and started building something from scratch — slowly, deliberately, with whatever resources they had left. What's happened since is one of the more compelling small-scale hospitality stories I've come across. Lauren walks us through how guest feedback reshaped her entire business model — from glamping stays to themed retreats that now drive almost everything. Reading retreats that sell out instantly. A romance novel retreat built around a bookstore that opened in their tiny town. Mother-daughter camps that filled in a day. A perimenopause retreat that was born from a literal conversation at the dinner table during a previous retreat. We talk about the decision to close the business Monday through Thursday this summer so she could actually be present with her kids, how she went from fully dependent on Airbnb to 95% direct bookings and what that did for her cash flow and her sanity, and this idea she keeps coming back to — that the real growth opportunity for operators like her isn't more units. It's more reasons for people to show up. —   Behind the Stays is brought to you by Journey — a first-of-its-kind loyalty program that brings together an alliance of the world's top independently owned and operated stays and allows travelers to earn points and perks on boutique hotels, vacation rentals, treehouses, ski chalets, glamping experiences and so much more.   Your host is Zach Busekrus, Head of Growth at Journey.

Terry returns with his girlfriend Vera to his mother's secluded mountain cabin in Crosby, Tennessee, to clean up her property. Upon arrival, Terry finds the cabin in severe decay, discovers strange bones hidden near their campsite, and experiences unsettling encounters with a shape-shifting entity that mimics the people around him. After being rendered unconscious, Terry is captured by the creature—which is revealed to be the Cherokee myth Spearfinger (U'tlun'ta')—and discovers his brother Nathan has been brainwashed into serving it, while his true mother and Vera have both been murdered. Escaping from a basement filled with the monster's past victims, Terry flees the isolated property and reaches a neighboring house for help, only to discover the creature has already arrived before him, disguised as his mother once again.

This week I'm joined by Nate Blackledge of Triple B Barbecue. Nate and I were at a competition in New Hampshire and said let's sit down and do a show. We had a great conversation. Mother nature wanted in on the fun hence 2 parts.

“On my headstone, it would say: I was always right. I never lied, and no one paid any attention to me.” — Paulina Borsook A quarter of a century ago, the tech journalist Paulina Borsook published Cyberselfish, one of the earliest critiques of Silicon Valley's libertarian culture. While the heretical book got widely reviewed, it not only didn't sell but cursed her writing career, Borsook claiming she couldn't get published again on any subject. Used copies of Cyberselfish could be had for a few dollars and she became just another forgotten tech dissenter. Then, last year, Borsook was magically resurrected. The New York Times (re)discovered her as “the writer who dared criticize Silicon Valley” and the price of secondhand copies of Cyberselfish jumped to over a thousand dollars. The world caught up with her tech scepticism. Like an AI startup, Borsook is now hot. So hot, in fact, that the original Cyberselfish is now being republished not only in the US and UK, but also in France. So hot, that we now have a new word: “Borsookian,” to describe Silicon Valley libertarianism. The funny thing is that nothing much has changed over the last quarter century since Borsook's original book came out. Not tech's libertarian hostility to government. Not the Silicon Valley boys-only club. And certainly not Paulina Borsook, who retains what the Grateful Dead lyricist and digital utopian John Perry Barlow half-lovingly called her “dyspeptic” manner. “On my headstone, it would say: I was always right,” Paulina Borsook confides with dyspeptic glee. “I never lied, and no one paid any attention to me.” How delicious to be so fully resurrected. What fun for the heretic to help transform the original orthodoxy into the new heresy. Five Takeaways •       Back from the Dead. The resurrection required no publicist: used copies of Cyberselfish drifted from $4 toward $1,000; graduate students begged her for copies she couldn't supply; a stranger she's never met posted on LinkedIn that she'd gotten everything right and been forgotten — and it went viral. That led to Gil Duran, whose furious Bluesky post (after a Wired mea-culpa writer interviewed him about her for forty-five minutes and cited neither of them) alerted The New York Times, whose November feature — “The Writer Who Dared Criticize Silicon Valley” — brought her agent's immortal email: “we always knew you were right.” Tin House is reissuing the book on September 15 with a Duran foreword and her new afterword, changing not a word. Younger readers, she's told, like that it doesn't read like a TED Talk. Her headstone joke covers the whole arc: always right, never lied, no one paid attention.•       Why Are They So Mad? The book's core observation remains undefeated: “no sector of society has benefited more and suffered less from the government than people in Silicon Valley. So why are they acting like this, and why are they so mad?” “Libertarian” was simply her shorthand for a subculture violently anti-government, totally anti-regulation, and drunk on Ayn Rand — or, in the book's reframe, the mind-set of adolescents craving total rampaging autonomy while someone else does the laundry. She wrote it from inside: a Wired freelancer under Louis Rossetto (who handed new writers The New Journalism), perpetually paired point-counterpoint against John Perry Barlow, whose Declaration of the Independence of Cyberspace made her snort and whose “dyspeptic” label she wears as a compliment. Kevin Kelly, she insists, is not Sam Altman — they almost never agreed, but she doesn't demonize — “except that they have a belief in everything that tech wants to do is fine.” The book, she says now, is a Guide for the Perplexed: the metaphors and framing to decode everything the current crop is spewing.•       That Damn Book. She calls it TDB — That Damn Book — because it wrecked her. A strong media arc and worldwide reviews, then no sales and a career that “came to a crashing halt”: for twenty-five years she could not get published again, on tech or anything else; a finalist for four fellowships, winner of none; no one — blacklist theorists, gender theorists — could ever explain it. “I have PTSD from twenty-five years of never being able to be published again.” The lost years: seven of nasty elder care, an eviction that put everything she owned in storage, six years as an Airbnb superhost in the Santa Cruz Mountains, and the art project My Life as a Ghost — about the traumatic brain injury she's carried since a friend accidentally shot her with a Colt 45 at fourteen. She resists the redemptive reading that the TBI explains her outsider eye (“I'm a package deal”), and values tech precisely as the utility — word processing, BBSs for the housebound — that made a writing life possible. Using is not worshiping.•       AI Is the Inevitable Result of Cyberselfishness. “Was anybody asking for this? Not really.” AI, on her reading, is the financial play the culture was always building toward — there's little real innovation left, “except for surveillance capitalism” and, in her Shakespearean phrase, the current crop “borrowing the robes of the tech culture of another era.” Her oldest fascination has become the newest: since ELIZA in the sixties, people have preferred confessing to machines over talking to humans — AI boyfriends included — and “it gets so much stuff wrong that people wanna rely on this” bewilders her still. Andrew's question about Anthropic's calls for regulation drew the hour's driest line: “isn't that just sort of the lipstick on a pig issue? I'll believe it when I see it” — nobody, she notes, will do anything that touches the stock price. Her counter-example is the late Peter Neumann, the computer scientist who gave $4 million to the San Francisco Symphony's chorus: “we will not see his like again.”•       The Blue of Tahoe. Asked what freedom means, she calls the word too abused to define — a card-carrying ACLU member since high school who believes just as firmly in regulation, and whose answer to Sergey Brin's California-as-Soviet-Union hissy fit is the episode's keeper: “what do you think keeps the water of Tahoe so very blue except for government regulation and environmental scientists? Who do you think regulates the use of the term organic?” The regulation-freedom dynamic, she argues, is healthy — it's the worship that isn't. Her San Francisco test: The Crucible, the beloved East Bay institution that taught Burning Man its metalwork, gets nothing from the boom, while art nonprofits die weekly and the winners insist they owe nothing because they pay taxes — “which they try very much not to do.” Burning Man itself she reads via Brave New World: the violent passion surrogate, a scheduled space for disorder before returning to lives spent “creating nonsense and ruining a lot of things that we hold dear.” A California writer to the end — and, per Glengarry Glen Ross, always be closing. About the Guest Paulina Borsook has worked in and around Northern California tech culture since the early 1980s. Formerly on the masthead of Wired, she has written for Mother Jones, Salon, and countless tech and non-tech publications, and is a contributing editor at InFormation (“every day computers are making people easier to use”), the revived tech-skeptic magazine of past guest Davi...

What if the person you lost could still offer guidance when you need it most? In this emotional psychic medium reading, Laura Lee connects with Jessica's late mother, Veronica, bringing through spirit messages about family, relationships, career, and life after death. Veronica offers Jessica reassurance about the people she loves while revealing meaningful details about an upcoming baby, family challenges, and a sister navigating a difficult relationship and home situation. Through this powerful connection to the afterlife, Laura Lee explores how loved ones can continue to bring comfort, spiritual guidance, and signs even after they have passed. If you're experiencing grief, wondering about life after death, or looking for an intuitive reading that brings clarity and hope, this episode is a reminder that love doesn't simply disappear when someone transitions. Spirit messages can bring comfort, perspective, and a renewed sense of connection when you need it most.

With the Lindsay Clancy murder trial now in the hands of a deadlocked jury, national debate around postpartum psychosis, maternal mental health, and criminal responsibility has reached a breaking point. On Week 516 of the 3 time award winning flagship podcast Duke Loves Rasslin, host Duke sits down with guest Alissa G, an experienced educator, wife, and mother, for an unvarnished, high stakes debate on the trial.Following Duke's stance on Devon & The Duke (co hosted with WWE Hall of Famer Devon Dudley) where he detailed why he would vote guilty, Alissa steps up to offer a perspective she felt was missing: the lived experience of a mother navigating complex maternal health issues.The conversation expands into a deep dive on women's health research, exploring how medical study over the past 50 years has lagged behind and why understanding mental health conditions like postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis remains so critical. Things heat up when Alissa asserts that Lindsay Clancy would never experience postpartum psychosis again without having more children, prompting Duke to challenge the claim, arguing that given future medical advancements, AI, and quantum computing, making definitive statements on evolving science is a dangerous gamble.

Read OnlineThe Power of His WordAfter Jesus left the synagogue, he entered the house of Simon. Simon's mother-in-law was afflicted with a severe fever, and they interceded with him about her. He stood over her, rebuked the fever, and it left her. She got up immediately and waited on them. Luke 4:38–39In today's Gospel, we encounter the first mention of Simon—whose name Jesus would later change to Peter—in Luke's account. Simon was likely present in the synagogue and witnessed Jesus cast out a demon from a possessed man. With a simple command, “Be quiet! Come out of him!”, Jesus revealed His divine authority. The people were astonished and exclaimed, “What is there about his word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out” (Luke 4:35–36).Having seen His authority firsthand, Simon presumably spoke to Jesus about his mother-in-law, who was suffering from a severe fever. It is striking to imagine the moment of Simon's first personal encounter with the Lord. Though Jesus, in His divine foresight, knew what Simon would one day become—the first pope entrusted with the spiritual authority of Heaven—Simon himself could not have foreseen how radically his life was about to change.Upon entering Simon's home, Jesus rebuked the fever. The Greek word used here, epitimaō, is the same word used in the previous passage when Jesus rebuked the demon. This deliberate parallel reveals that both the spiritual and physical realms are subject to Jesus' command. What He rebuked were real evils and disorders: demonic possession as a violation of the soul and the fever as a natural affliction of the body.Later in this Gospel passage, Jesus continues healing many who are sick and casting out demons. Once again, He rebukes the demons, silencing them and forbidding them to speak. Though they cry out, “You are the Son of God,” Jesus does not permit them to bear witness to Him. He has no need of demons to proclaim His identity. His revelation will come in His time, by His own design, especially through the Cross and Resurrection.Jesus' rebukes, whether uttered by a word, expressed through a gesture, or conveyed by His mere presence, are divine actions against evil. They are not expressions of wishful hope, but authoritative, efficacious commands. What He speaks comes to be. His word is not just powerful; it accomplishes what it declares.Understanding this is foundational to our life of faith and our spiritual journey. When we turn to Christ with trust, we must believe that His word has the power to heal, to free, and to transform. He does not speak in vain. His authority extends to every dimension of our lives, body, soul, and spirit, and He desires to restore all that has been wounded by sin, suffering, or disorder.One of the most tangible and powerful ways this takes place today is through the words of absolution spoken by the priest in the Sacrament of Reconciliation, a spiritual authority first given to Simon Peter and passed down through apostolic succession. The words of absolution are Christ's words, words that rebuke sin and its effects, restoring the soul to grace and peace. They are divine actions that accomplish what they signify.Though the words of absolution may be the clearest example, every Sacrament—Baptism, Confirmation, the Eucharist, Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders, and Matrimony—conveys God's grace and power through the efficacious word and action of Christ.Reflect today on your own trust in the power of Jesus' word. Do you believe He can rebuke the disorders in your life with divine authority? Do you turn to Him with confidence in the Sacraments, knowing that what He speaks, He accomplishes? Surrender all that afflicts you to the power of His Word, and allow Him to restore you to grace, relying especially on the sacramental authority given to Simon Peter and exercised by the priests who have followed after. My authoritative Lord, when You speak, what You speak comes to be. Speak to me, Lord. Rebuke my sin and weakness, so that Your holy will may be accomplished in my life. Let me hear Your voice, especially in the Sacraments through which Your mercy is poured forth and Your power is made manifest. Jesus, I trust in You.  Image: Christ Healing the Mother of Simon Peter's Wife, by John BridgesSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc.

The lawyers who protected Hollywood's biggest names just walked out of d4vd's murder case. Blair Berk told the court on August 31 that her client wanted a public defender — then she left. Burke pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder with special circumstances, continuous lewd acts with a child under 14, and unlawful mutilation of human remains. His financial manager Benjamin Greger testified at the preliminary hearing that after Celeste Rivas Hernandez's remains were found in Burke's Tesla, he told Burke's mother Colleen to transfer property titles out of her son's name. He testified they were trying to assemble two million for bail. He testified the team went to encrypted messaging. All while the singer's deal with Interscope was bleeding out — terminated December 2025, zero payments in 2026. Greger estimated Burke grossed over ten million dollars. Nobody has explained where it went. Co-counsel Marilyn Bednarski told Rolling Stone there's "no conflict." She declined to say how Burke qualifies as indigent. The public defender's office says they're committed to his defense. DA Hochman says the death penalty is still on the table. Where the money went and what it means for this case — the full breakdown.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What if the strangest moments at the end of life are actually the most meaningful?In this episode, Alexandra Grabbe joins Brian to talk about the seven months she spent caring for her 96-year-old mother, Bea, at home — and the deathbed visions that changed how she understands what happens when we die. Alexandra shares the exhaustion, the tenderness, and the moments of unexpected grace that shaped her new memoir, Seeing Joy. If you've ever cared for a dying parent, sat with someone in their final days, or wondered what those "hallucinations" near the end of life really mean, this conversation will stay with you.About Alexandra GrabbeAlexandra Grabbe has lived many lives — talk show host in Paris, eco-friendly innkeeper on Cape Cod, and lifelong writer. After graduating from Vassar College, she raised three children in France, worked in journalism and broadcasting, and assisted literary figures Barbara Chase-Riboud and Marge Piercy. For two decades she ran a green bed-and-breakfast in Wellfleet, Massachusetts. When her mother's health declined, Alexandra became her full-time caregiver — an experience that became the caregiving blog "By B's Bedside" and, nearly two decades later, her home care memoir Seeing Joy: A Story of Life, Death, and What Comes Next (Koehler Books, March 2026).

My guest this week spent forty years studying death — first as a pathologist doing autopsies, later coaching people from inside her own pathology office. What she found in that work wasn't morbid. She found more life force in the morgue than she usually found walking around on an ordinary day, and that contradiction sent her looking for why. Sabine O'Laughlin calls what she found the mother line: the idea that everybody has one mother, whatever your relationship with her looks like, and that mother gave you exactly one thing — your life. Until you can accept that fully, Sabine says, you stay closed off to receiving — not just love, but money, health, and everything else too. This conversation is one I needed to hear myself, as someone who works in wealth consciousness all day and doesn't have a relationship with my own mother. This episode gets into where that shows up in your body, what giving too much can actually cost you, and what changes once you do this work.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: The three principles that hold family systems together — belonging, order, and the balance of give and receive — and what happens when any of them is out of balance Why being "a little bit dead" isn't dramatic — it's any place you learned to hold back to keep your caretakers happy, and how it shows up in your posture, your jaw, and your voice Why the giver, not the taker, is usually the one who kills a relationship, and how over-giving can be a form of control dressed up as generosity What it might mean if you've always felt like the black sheep of your family, and why that role usually isn't random Why Sabine says money is an energy, not a thing, and why nothing you buy will work until you can take in the source of your own wealth What changed for Sabine the day her mother died, and how it turned into four decades of studying death for a living   TAKE SABINE'S FREE ENERGY LEAK AUDIT Curious where your own energy might be leaking?

Join Lisa, Matt, Jules, and Noa as they take an especially personal look at the heartbreaking case of Christina Spicuzza, a Pittsburgh-area mother of four whose life was tragically cut short while working as an Uber driver. In 2022, Christina accepted a ride in the Monroeville area—never knowing it would be her last. What followed was a horrifying kidnapping and murder that devastated her family, friends, and the Pittsburgh community. In this episode, we discuss the investigation, the evidence that led authorities to Calvin Crew, and the criminal case that ultimately resulted in convictions for first-degree murder, robbery, kidnapping, gun charges, and tampering with evidence. We also examine the difficult questions surrounding Crew himself, including his history of childhood violence and neglect, his reported intellectual and social challenges, and the defense's argument that he had fallen through society's cracks. At the same time, we confront the devastating reality of Christina's final moments and the impact her death left on the people who loved her. The episode takes an especially emotional turn as we discuss Christina's family's decision to ask prosecutors not to pursue the death penalty—choosing instead life in prison without parole, in accordance with Christina's religious beliefs. We reflect on what that decision says about forgiveness, faith, justice, and the unimaginable strength required to face the person responsible for taking your loved one away. This is more than another true crime story for us. Christina's case hits close to home as we are from the same hometown, making this one of the most difficult and meaningful conversations we've had on the podcast. If you listen to true crime podcasts, follow Pittsburgh true crime, or are interested in criminal investigations, courtroom trials, victim impact stories, and the difficult questions surrounding justice and punishment, this is an episode you won't want to miss. *Please note all opinions in the show are our own and solely in regards to the specific case we are discussing in this episode* We made a one stop shop for all the Eye for an Eye links our listeners might want to check out whether its where to listen, our merch shop, all of our socials, our email, or ways to support the show,  we'd love for you to visit the link below!  https://msha.ke/eyeforeyepod/ Tired of Ads?

Steve is a natural as a host. He found his passion for the radio business at the age of six, but wasn't able to fulfill that dream till a little later in life.   As you listen to the wonderful stories Steve shares,  you'll find out that he was raised by both his maternal grandmother and his mom.  "Grandmother was worthless until a crisis. Grandmother was my mother, my light. 'Mother', as he refers to his mom, was my 'dad'-the two women set up  those 'roles'," McCurdy shares. You'll hear Steve repeat over and over again how magnificent his mother was -"a powerful, independent woman with a great, great mind, yet she wanted to be wild and crazy and she never really got to do that." Plus, Margie never went to college because any money the family  had went to Margie's brother's wants and needs. Margie started working in a local bank  in Texas at 16 and because of her expertise, hard work and dedication over decades of running the Proof Department, she was able to apply for a  program through Southwest Institute Of Graduate Business Studies and SMU. Because she had never gotten and undergraduate degree, she was able to take an exam, passed the test with flying colors, got her undergraduate degree certificate based on her lifelong experience and the exam and became the first person to ever complete a Masters program at SMU without having actually attended college. There is more to this story  as it was taking place in the late 60's and the Civil Rights Movement. Steve's mother made a considerable effort to train the other female employees and not just overlook them because she knew they were intelligent and capable to do any job if trained properly. There's so much more to Steve's story. Hope you enjoy this episode of SHLTMM.     Steve.mccurdy@storymastermedia.com CrossRoadDiner@storymastermedia.com   "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

When Jody Hudson's daughter, Alex, first complained that her legs hurt, it was assumed it was simply growing pains. What followed was a 10-year battle with a mysterious illness, more than 40 doctors, multiple misdiagnoses, and a desperate cross-country search for answers that finally led to a diagnosis of Lyme disease. Through unimaginable physical suffering, Alex clung to her faith and chose to trust God, while Jody fought alongside her and eventually took up Alex's mission to advocate for others with Lyme disease after her daughter's passing. In her award-winning memoir My Promise to Alex, Jody weaves Alex's story together with her own journey through abandonment, foster care, adoption, and divorce, offering a powerful testimony of a mother's love, enduring faith, and hope that reaches beyond this life.Connect with Jody:Jody's website: https://www.alexhudsonlymefoundation.org/Jody's Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/researchforalex/Looking to save money on bulk food items?

Between 1950 and 1975, an estimated 1.5 million women were sent to homes for unwed mothers across the United States. There, most were hidden away from their families and communities until they gave birth and placed their babies for adoption. Some of those adoptions were involuntary.That type of experience is hard to forget. For one family, a past that had been buried for decades finally came to light after a DNA test connected two long-lost sisters. We hear from both of them, as part of the new book, “My Mother's Daughter: Finding Myself in My Family's Fractured Past.”Find more of our programs online.

A Miller hearing is the only thing standing between Timothy Hudson and a life sentence. The 2012 Supreme Court ruling says a judge must examine a juvenile defendant's childhood — mental health, trauma, family environment, rehabilitation potential — before imposing life without parole. To build that examination, the defense needs parents, relatives, and anyone who witnessed the defendant's development. Records tell part of the story. Only a parent can tell the rest.Timothy Hudson's three public defenders have never handled a juvenile federal case. They told Judge Beth Bloom their access to "certain family members" has been blocked by a family dynamic they called "very unfortunate." The filing was deliberately vague. A custody fight between Timothy's biological parents — his mother is married to Anna Kepner's father, making her stepmother to the girl Timothy allegedly killed aboard the Carnival Horizon — exposes the fracture the defense was trying to keep off the page.Shauntel Hudson confirmed under oath that Timothy was taking ADHD and insomnia medication. She confirmed he'd skipped the insomnia meds the two nights on the cruise. FBI Agent del Valle testified that Anna's ex-boyfriend reported Timothy had tried to get into Anna's bed while she slept — months before the trip. Anna allegedly told the ex she was afraid and hesitant to tell her father. Shauntel's own stepmother went on CBS demanding charges against both parents for lack of supervision.The person whose testimony would anchor the Miller case is the same person who'd have to explain what she knew before that cruise and what she chose not to act on.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

An 83-year-old great-grandmother, legally blind and in failing health, has spent nearly a year in a South Korean detention cell — and Newt believes her case is part of something far larger. Dr. Hak Ja Han, co-founder of the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification and known to millions worldwide as the Mother of Peace, faces charges that could send her to prison for 13 years. With a verdict days away, Dr. Demian Dunkley, president of Family Federation USA, joins Newt to speak on her behalf — tracing her remarkable journey from a six-year-old girl fleeing North Korea on foot to building a global peace movement spanning 170 countries. Newt and Dr. Dunkley also address what Newt calls a global war on God: the worldwide pattern of governments targeting religious liberty, from South Korea's courtroom to Nigeria's killing fields.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
