Podcasts about Munson

The Munsons welcome back Mike Rodmaker for a deep dive into the career of one of the most accomplished—and complicated—actors we've covered yet: Frank Langella. First things first, Case absolutely cleans up in the birthday segment, before we tackle the much bigger question: are we looking at the GOAT of male Tony winners? We trace Langella's unconventional path to Hollywood, including the fascinating story behind landing his first major role in a Mel Brooks film and the unlikely journey that eventually led him to starring roles. Langella proves to be one of the most refreshingly matter-of-fact actors we've encountered, speaking bluntly about the projects he took, the scripts he read, and the choices he made along the way. We also watch Rodmaker earn his Munson stripes by somehow coming dangerously close to watching the wrong movie for his featured review of The Twelve Chairs. We dig into the lengths Langella would go to put his own creative stamp on scripts he didn't particularly enjoy, while Case makes the bold claim that Langella may have delivered one of the earliest end-credit scenes in Masters of the Universe. We're surprised by just how often he collaborated with Ivan Reitman and explore his relationship with Whoopi Goldberg after the two filmed Eddie together. As Langella's career progresses, we marvel at his ability to play the ultimate curmudgeon, particularly in Captain Fantastic and The Trial of the Chicago 7. Naturally, we also have to dive into his memoir, where he recounts some truly wild Hollywood stories and escapades from throughout his career. Finally, we discuss the sexual harassment allegations made against him in 2022, the impact those allegations and his subsequent departure from The Fall of the House of Usher had on the late stages of his career, and how that complicated chapter fits into our overall assessment of his work. So how do we evaluate an actor with an extraordinary theater résumé, a handful of genuinely top-tier films, and a whole lot of stinkers? Is Frank Langella one of the most accomplished character actors of all time—or does the uneven filmography ultimately hold him back? How does he rank on the Munson Meter? Listen to find out.

Back in the flying pizza van, unknown hero agent guy is bleedingout and Jonathon is like “better go to a hospital” and the dying man is like “nope,don't you know better than to trust the government” And mike is like “but you are the government” and he's like “exactly!here's a pen write this down, A C A B” then he dies. Over in another part of the endless dessert stands a door.And our white rabbit, Owens leads eleven down the rabbit hole to face thejabberwocky aka papa aka Brenner, the true villain behind all the bad thingsthat have ever happened in this show and possibly real life. She sees him and is like “nope” but too bad because theystab her neck with a sleepy needle. Over in Russia, Hopper is getting beaten up like a SteveHarrington and then he beats up Ezno and all the prisoners are like ACAB excepthopper is a bastard cop too so he doesn't kill his new friend. Eddie eats SpaghettiOs out of the pan and needs a six pack,Max draws pictures. Dustin insults the drawings and pisses of Ted Wheeler and Steveand anyone else he can… just you know… for fun.Eleven wakes up with a shaved head in her bare bedroom/prisonat the lab but that's okay because Hermie the elf is here to guide her throughher mental nightmare loop that she's trapped in like her mom. The voice of Brenner also helps focus her on remembering thetorture and trauma that he put her through. Nice dude, real nice. The boys in cali bury a body and Argyle wants to put up a neonsign that says look at the crime we are committing and even Jonathon is gettingtired of his stupidity. Lovable pothead? Even his best friend that you guys arewriting for him doesn't like him. Kill Argyle and leave us Eddie. Hopper is a bastard cop who is also a white male who criesand blames himself for all the things that are his fault, as both of the thingshe is, often do. (joking, it's actually sad I know) The government tells Uncle Wayne he has to leave his trailerwhere his missing nephew murdered a cheerleader while he was at work becausehis ceiling is leaking evil and this exhausted man literally just sighs andstarts packing… give the Munson's a break. Crissy's mom is the biggest hypocrite bitch on earth talkingabout the monster that hurt her daughter and it's like calm your ass JoyceWallace pt 2 (cruel summer) you traumatized her with an eating disorder andcaused some of this and are currently causing more problems by fueling Jason'smurderous rage against someone you don't even know So the real cult is on the hunt again for the cult they madeup in their brainwashed but otherwise empty heads. Murray confesses to beating up minors for fun and hijacks aplane that he then crashes, good job bro… Eddie rows his boat fiercely to sounds of screams. Patrickis pretzeled and okay like we don't know him though. Eleven goes through more bullshit and pretty much dies andgets shocked back to life and instantly smacks the shit out of Brenner's evilface and it's pretty awesome to see. But she's getting some powers back and ofcourse the only way to save everyone is to retraumatize the most innocent lambof a girl, so she relents for now and if anyone can't see what a wonderful pureheart this girl has… I will find you and I will… well anyway it's all getting darkerand more scary for example: there are spiders in Steve's hair nest and Dustinis quoting Sherlock, Jonathon calls a computer and Will SINGS… next stop thescariest state of all…  Utah! YIKES!

On this show, more voices from “Turning the Tide: 9/11, 25 Years Later,” a conference of scholars, scientists, firefighters and a myriad of others who dispute the official narrative of the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001. The conference in New York City occurred as the United States nears the seven-month mark in an illegal war of aggression against the people of Iran, the most recent war targeting West Asia and Africa, in the so-called war on terror launched after the 9/11 attacks, which were blamed on 19 Muslim alleged hijackers armed with box cutters. For this second show featuring voices from the conference, we hear from two people in the firefighter community who were at ground zero of the World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan, including Bill Manning, a leading journalist in the fire service trade press, and Chris Gioia, retired volunteer firefighter and fire chief. Gioia is also a fire commissioner for his Long Island community, of Franklin Square and Munson, where he led the commission to vote for a new federal investigation into the attacks on the World Trade Center.

In an ode to Bill Pullman's unforgettable declaration in Spaceballs, the Munsons find themselves surrounded by assholes as we welcome back Dan Craig for his 9th guest Munson appearance.  We marvel at Pullman's remarkably clean personal life and his successful marriage to Tamara Hurwitz since 1987—a genuine movie star who somehow managed to maintain a semi-normal life in Montana. We trace his path from relative unknown to leading man after Mel Brooks took a chance on him in Spaceballs, then dive into a filmography filled with surprises. We review what is apparently the only movie Bill Pullman and Bill Paxton made together, while James and Kyle enthusiastically spoil the absolutely bonkers ending of Malice. We also marvel at Pullman's astonishing roster of wives and girlfriends throughout 1990s cinema and hear Kyle's ill-fated attempt to track down Whipstaff Manor in Friendship, Maine. Of course, no Pullman conversation is complete without Independence Day, and we gush over his iconic presidential speech that rallies the entire world—and was reportedly so good that it inspired a change to the movie's title. We're also genuinely stunned to discover there are six Lake Placid movies, before asking the uncomfortable question of what happened to Pullman's filmography after 1998. Did Hollywood simply throw too many roles his way, or did he stop being quite as selective about what he took? Perhaps most exciting of all, Pullman gives us something we haven't had in a while: a filmography packed with movies we've somehow never covered across 140 previous episodes. There's a lot of new territory to explore, plenty of surprises along the way, and more Bill Pullman than we probably knew we needed. How does he rank on the Munson Meter? Listen to find out.

Send us Fan MailA leaked first draft hits harder than any slap on Seaview Circle, and Knots Landing Season 4 Episode 15 proves it can flip from cozy wedding planning to full-blown wreckage in minutes. I'm Jett  , and I'm walking through To Have and to Hold with all the context, the side-eyes, and the moments that made me rewind because I could not believe what I was hearing. Karen and Mac are supposed to be counting flowers and final details, but the whole day keeps getting hijacked by other people's mess. Kenny and Gary's music partnership finally detonates, and Kenny says the quiet part out loud about money, power, and the kind of selfishness that always finds a way to justify itself. Watching Gary take those hits is complicated, especially when the episode forces us to look at patterns he would rather ignore. Meanwhile, Val's private pages end up splashed across a trashy tabloid, turning her pain into entertainment and setting off a chain reaction of gossip, outrage, and misdirected blame. Munson draws a hard line about who really controls the CG project, Chip shows just how slippery he can be, and a confrontation at Val's house spills into the yard and turns physical. Then, in the middle of all that, Karen and Mac make a choice that feels like the only sane option: they go to Vegas and actually get married. We close on one of the sharpest images of the hour, with Gary alone by the ocean and the possibility of relapse hanging in the air. If you love classic prime time soap opera storytelling, character consequences, and messy moral math, this recap is for you.

Send us Fan MailSkip the fluff and go straight to the mess: “Teddy Makes Three” is the hour where Knots Landing turns relationship tension into open warfare, and we are not letting a single side-eye slide. I'm Jet, and I'm recapping Season 4 Episode 14 with the kind of close watch that only happens when you rewind, admit your bias, and chase the timeline until it finally makes sense. Also, for reasons I can't fully defend, you may want to remember the 18:40 mark. Gary Ewing and Kenny Ward's record label partnership hits the wall when Ciji records at Richard Munson's studio without Kenny's production, and the confrontation spirals into a question neither man wants to answer: who actually owns the dream? Munson's job offer, Abby Cunningham's “pragmatic” influence, and Ginger's calm-but-deadly read of the whole situation expose what's really been happening behind the scenes. If you love TV drama about music careers, creative control, and betrayal in business partnerships, this plotline delivers. Across the cul-de-sac, Karen Fairgate and Mack MacKenzie wrestle with the scariest part of love after loss: saying yes when you know what it costs. Teddy's nostalgia tour, Mac's jealousy, Val's tough-love truth talk, and Diana's surprisingly wise visit all push Karen toward a choice she can't keep dodging. Meanwhile, Chip's manipulation of Ciji's pregnancy gets uglier by the minute, and we talk plainly about what control looks like when it wears a “career advice” mask. If you're into classic primetime soap opera recaps, Knots Landing analysis, and story-first commentary that still makes you laugh, subscribe, share this with a fellow soap fiend, and leave a review. What's your verdict: is Abby protecting Gary or setting him up?

The Frontier spoke with pollster Pat McFerron about Mike Mazzei's slim win over Gentner Drummond to secure the Republican nomination for governor. McFerron is president of the Oklahoma-based polling firm Cole Hargrave Snodgrass & Associates. For the full interview, listen to our podcast.Dylan Goforth: Let's talk about what we saw last night. It's funny: There were a lot of eyes on the election, but not so many votes. Once again, turnout in an Oklahoma runoff wasn't great, but everyone was paying attention to what happened. When you look at the runoff results, what do you think Oklahoma voters told us?Pat McFerron: I think the key takeaway is a little bit of a repudiation of the Freedom Caucus. Obviously, everyone wants to talk about the governor's race, which was very, very close. I believe it's the closest Republican runoff election we've had in the state for governor.But I think the continuation last night of support for Senate Pro Tem Lonnie Paxton — and voters increasingly siding with him over the Freedom Caucus — is probably the biggest takeaway.That, and I think you hit on it a little bit, is how few people are participating. I do think the Republican runoff election exceeded some people's expectations, but you're still talking about less than 10% of Oklahoma residents participating. It's a larger percentage of voters, but we're talking about a state of 4 million people. Less than 10% decided who is likely to be the next governor of the state.Dylan: Looking at the governor's election, Mazzei won by essentially half a percentage point. Does that look like basically a coin flip, or did you see something in the results that explains why Mazzei was able to hold off Drummond, even by the slim margin that he did?Pat: If you compare the margins — if you took out the other candidates in June and looked at the margins Drummond and Mazzei had vis-à-vis each other, then looked at what happened last night — the southeastern part of the state turned out pretty solidly and really moved toward Mazzei.In McCurtain County alone, Mazzei won by a little over 2,000 votes. He picked up 779 net votes there. So he picked up more than a third of his statewide margin in McCurtain County alone.Dylan: Do you think that's the Trump endorsement? I know southeastern Oklahoma, and I don't think of Mazzei as your typical southeastern Oklahoma candidate.Pat: It is the most Trumpian. I think the Brecheen endorsement there mattered. You also had the late Markwayne Mullin endorsement. Those are the last two congressmen there.Especially in McCurtain County, which is in the Shreveport media market, they're not seeing quite as much television advertising as some of the others are. I think they rely a little more on endorsements. So, yes, I do think that's a key part of it there.Dylan: Let's talk about the money, because I think that's an interesting part of the results. There was a lot of spending. I think Mazzei took out almost $12 million in loans. The Associated Press reported more than $14 million in television and digital advertising during the runoff, with many more millions spent before that.What did Mazzei actually buy with that money?Pat: When a race is this close, any decision on financing probably makes a difference. So, yes, I would argue that he needed it all to get there.That being said, you may recall I released numbers three weeks out that had it at 44-44. I did two other surveys that I did not release that had it at 45-45, and the last survey I did, which I finished last Thursday, had it at 45-45.That makes you wonder whether the money was wasted. But if it hadn't been there, you don't know what would have happened on the other side. It looks to me like he needed all of it—or almost all of it—to be successful.Dylan: Taking out $12 million in loans is enough to give you stress. But I guess when you win by 2,000 votes, you don't look back and regret taking out those loans.Pat: The worst feeling — and I've been on campaigns that have done this before—is to say, “I should have done something else. I should have put in another $100,000, or I should have done X, Y or Z. If I'd bought broadcast television in Shreveport, maybe I would have done better in McCurtain County.” Those are the things that drive you crazy.Very seldom do I have someone say, “We paid for a landslide, and I'm upset about it.”Dylan: I love a close race because it gives you so much to think about and dwell on. When you're talking about 2,000 votes, anywhere you're picking up votes is relevant, important and probably meaningful.One thing I was thinking about last night was the polling you released before the runoff. These guys had essentially been tied for a long time. I remember seeing numbers in June, and the June election results were close.What do last night's results — and the way the last six months played out — tell you about where the supporters of the other candidates went?Pat: Obviously, it means they split rather evenly.I haven't gone down to this level yet, but looking at the maps, it appeared Drummond ended up winning out west, where (Jake) Merrick and (Chip) Keating had done well. Mazzei did well on the eastern side of the state, where McCall had more support.For example, in Atoka County, it wasn't a huge difference, but compared with June, Mazzei picked up a net 294 votes. In a county where only about 1,600 people voted, that's a pretty big margin.Dylan: For people looking through the numbers today and trying to sort this out, are there any obvious mistakes you would caution them against making when interpreting the numbers?Pat: One thing that's interesting in a race this close is looking at local elections. That's something I always advise people to do.Look at the turnout in Ottawa County, for example. We actually had 58% more people vote in the August Republican runoff than voted in the June primary. They had a much larger turnout because there was a local sales-tax issue on the ballot that got 94% of the vote, I think.Their sheriff had been sued, and everybody was going to pay this big settlement through property taxes. They decided to pay it off with a sales tax instead. That meant a lot more people voted in Ottawa County.We saw the same thing in Adair County and Tahlequah, where there were some very important school bond issues on the ballot. Those were also places where more people voted in August than in June. Looking at some of those things matters when you get into a race that's this close.That's all short-term. Long term, I think one of the keys will be the involvement of the metro areas in nominating Republicans in the future.We'll see what happens with Cyndi Munson, and all due respect there, but if you look at the residents of Oklahoma, Tulsa, Cleveland and Canadian counties, they account for about 48% or 49% of all the residents in the state. They accounted for only 42% of the Republican primary voters. If you change that—and given that Drummond won those counties—he might be the nominee.Oklahoma County did turn out quite a bit more in the runoff than it did in the primary. Tulsa County did a little more, percentage-wise. But to me, that's a big question: Are we going to continue to be a state with rural dominance even though the metro areas are becoming more populated?Dylan: I want to look ahead to November. If you're advising Cyndi Munson, what does such a close split in the Republican runoff tell you about Mazzei's strengths and possible vulnerabilities? Is there anything in the results that gives a Democrat an opening or hope?Last night, I went back to look at the split between Drew Edmondson and Kevin Stitt in the 2018 governor's election. Obviously, the Munson campaign isn't going to say, “Our goal is to lose by less than Edmondson lost by.” But is that a good starting point for them to look at those results? What would you tell her to do over the next few months?Pat: I will tell you, 2018 is a lot different from 2026. With the teacher walkout and everything else, our generic-ballot test in 2018 had only about an eight-point Republican advantage. I'm at a 20-point Republican advantage in 2026.I think you have to create your own hope. But I don't think the opportunity for the Munson folks is necessarily the Gentner Drummond voters. I think it's the Republicans who stayed home, and they're a tougher group to reach as well.They're a little less engaged. They will vote Republican, but I think it'll take a little while to happen. I think we'll see the Republicans come back together.

Send us Fan MailMatthew Munson, Managing Director NSW at Talent Group, came to recruitment the long way round. A campervan trip around Australia turned into a decision to stay, and a phone call about a job in tech recruitment changed everything.He landed in 2006 with no idea what a .NET developer was. First six months, he hated it. The language was foreign, the role was a step back from where he'd been, and his ego took a hit. After six months, something clicked. Two years later he was team lead while billing at the top of his office.What followed was twenty years of building desks, running multi-office teams across Australia, Singapore and Hong Kong, leading RPO accounts at the exec level for brands like Yahoo 7 and eBay, and eventually becoming MD of NSW at Talent — a business he's been growing for nearly a decade.In this episode Matthew talks through what actually goes wrong on an underperforming desk, why he's fired high billers, and why moving into management too fast is one of the most common mistakes he sees. He also gets into what it takes to build a personal brand that actually works, why AI-generated content is already valueless, and what being proud to call yourself a recruiter has to do with how long you last in this industry.One of the most honest career conversations we've had on the show.Support the show· Our Website is: xrecruiter.io

The Munsons are once again joined by guest Munson, Lauren Hopkins Price, to discuss Blake Lively and enjoy James' bonus content while everyone waits for the arrival of little Giovanni Ribisi Jr. We also get wildly creative attempting to solve James' latest Two Truths and a Lie: Fast & Furious Edition, with results that are about as successful as you'd expect. From there, we trace Lively's path to stardom, beginning with her upbringing in a family deeply embedded in the Los Angeles entertainment industry. In an effort to fully appreciate one of her signature roles, the Munsons give Gossip Girl the old college try... and eventually admit defeat as we collectively realize we are nowhere near the target audience. Thankfully, films like The Town remind us why Lively became such a compelling screen presence. We gush over the performances of both Blake Lively and Rebecca Hall and wonder why Hollywood didn't give us more of this version of Blake. We also discuss her controversial antebellum-style wedding to Ryan Reynolds and how public perception has shifted over the years. In true Munsons fashion, Aubrey gets an opportunity to break down a shark movie with The Shallows, while the rest of the crew debates whether Lively's deliciously manipulative turn in A Simple Favor proves she'd be an outstanding Fast & Furious villain, following the path carved by Charlize Theron. We also examine why The Rhythm Section failed to break through in the same way that female-led action films like Atomic Blonde and Red Sparrow managed to capture audiences. And then there's the elephant in the room: the It Ends With Us controversy. Where do we land on the Munson Meter with the performances, the headlines, and the broader conversation surrounding Blake Lively's place in Hollywood? You'll have to listen to find out.

Most ambitious men are accidentally building a "Job-Trap," a life that looks successful on paper but is structurally broken. Today, we perform a clinical audit on legacy with the man who built an indestructible brand: Dave Munson of Saddleback Leather. Dave transitioned from a barefoot youth pastor in Mexico to the CEO of a global empire with a 100-year warranty. In this diagnostic deep-dive, we identify the "Atomic Tasks" stealing your time and the systemic failures that keep most men from true "Internal Sovereignty." From living in safari tents for a decade to surviving a million-dollar theft involving the FBI, Dave reveals the specific roadmap for building a life with no breakable parts.   CHAPTERS:  00:00 - The "No-Breakable-Parts" Life  03:00 - Why I moved my family into safari tents for 10 years  10:05 - Youth Ministry to CEO: When the business became the ministry  15:21 - The sketch that built a 100-year legacy  18:52 - Marriage Systems: Why we switched to a smaller bed  25:31 - The FBI, stolen millions, and the "Job-Trap"  27:42 - The only 2 questions you need to ask your team [High-Leverage]  41:53 - "Success starts at home": Zig Ziglar's final lesson  47:53 - The legacy audit: What will they fight over when you're dead?   Munson's Links: Website: https://saddlebackleather.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidcmunson/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/davidcmunson  

The Munsons welcome back our favorite bald guest Munson, Chip Hessenflow, to dive into the strange, fascinating, and deeply anxious world of Giovanni Ribisi. From the jump, we're captivated by Ribisi's obsession with cinematography, vintage cameras, and filmmaking technology—so much so that he literally loans equipment out to legendary directors like Paul Thomas Anderson. Naturally, this leads us into discussing one of the more unusual distinctions in Munson's history: Giovanni becomes the first practicing Scientologist we've covered in 136 episodes. We spend a shocking amount of time talking about Boiler Room (seriously, keep count at home), while James takes a passionate detour into why the Avatar franchise actually rules and continues to hold up better than people want to admit. Along the way, we explore how Ribisi essentially cornered the market in Hollywood on playing “the weird guy,” weaponizing his nervous, twitchy, anxious energy into one of the most unique character actor careers of his era. We revisit his endless string of early television appearances, uncover just how many massive Friends fans are apparently on this podcast, and celebrate his memorable run on the series. The deeper we go, the more impressed we become by the absolutely loaded list of directors and co-stars Ribisi worked with throughout the late 90s and early 2000s—a résumé that quietly stacks up against almost anyone from that generation. How does he rank on the Munson Meter? Listen to find out.

Munson Creek by Wild Montana

Seattle sports fans likely know Simply Seattle as the go-to spot for shirts, jerseys, hats and some of the city's most iconic apparel. But owner Jamie Munson's story is also one of entrepreneurship, brand building and betting on Seattle's sports culture. Jon and Jamie talk about Jamie's path from general manager to owner of Simply Seattle; the growth of the business since purchasing it in 2015; the impact of the Mariners and Seahawks post-season runs; the lasting passion for the Sonics and what renewed NBA expansion buzz means for Seattle; and Jamie's newest venture, Out West Trading Company, with locations across the Northwest and another opening soon in Suncadia. Join us for Seattle City Makers with Jon Scholes and guest Jamie Munson.

The Munsons are joined once again by returning guest Munson Cori Wallace to break down the fascinating and unpredictable career of Leslie Bibb. We kick things off with her unlikely origin story—winning a modeling competition through Oprah, leaving UVA after just one semester, and diving headfirst into entertainment. Cori even takes us back to watching that moment in real time, along with Bibb's early work on Ryan Murphy's Popular, setting the stage for a career that never quite followed a straight line. From there, we dig into a box office snapshot that starts surprisingly strong… and then falls off a cliff. With entries like See Spot Run, Movie 43, and Midnight Meat Train, it's not hard to see why. We revisit her brief role in Private Parts and wonder if it foreshadowed the types of characters she'd take on, before diving into The Skulls and how that role may have shaped her trajectory—complete with some very real fraternity and sorority parallels from Kyle, James, and Cori. Despite all of this, we're genuinely surprised she's never been fully typecast, given her early TV success and run of questionable film choices. We also debate why she never leaned back into comedy after Talladega Nights (Ricky Bobby deserves answers), and whether her success there was her own comedic timing or just the strength of the script. Along the way, we unpack her unconventional relationship with Sam Rockwell (a former Munson and Case favorite), question the tonal whiplash between her roles in To the Bone and Tag, and even detour into an Aubrey vs. James debate on whether The White Lotus is actually good. Do we have a new lowest scoring actor on the Munson Meter? Listen to find out.

On August 2, 1979, Thurman Munson — the gritty captain of the New York Yankees whose defensive brilliance and stubborn leadership defined a Bronx dynasty — died in a small plane crash at the age of 32. A competitor of rare intensity and blue-collar dignity, Munson built a legacy defined not by polish but by substance, turning a catcher's grueling labor into the heartbeat of a championship culture. With his rocket arm and a bat that thrived under the high-stakes pressure of October, Munson anchored a clubhouse of outsized egos with a presence that felt both fiercely protective and undeniably essential.

As we step into Holy Week and prepare our hearts for Easter, I found myself thinking, this one I needed to hear again—and I hope it might touch your heart in the same way. With that thought in mind, I'm re-airing the bonus Holy Week & Easter episode from last year of Open Our Bibles Together, where I had the joy of sitting down for a conversation with Tammy Munson from Christian Podcasting Secrets. In this one, we took a meaningful walk through the events of Holy Week as if we were actually there: the cheers of Palm Sunday, the solemn weight of the Last Supper, the heartbreak of the cross, and the shock and joy of the empty tomb. Along the way, we connected these moments to Old Testament prophecies, key Scriptures, and even explored how visual portrayals—like The Chosen—bring the story of Easter to life in a fresh and powerful way. And, of course… because it's Tammy and me, there was laughter too! We closed with a few lighthearted Easter questions, reminding us that even in the heaviness of Holy Week, there is hope, joy, and reason to celebrate. As a side note: the show notes have also been updated with links for watching The Chosen Seasons 4 and 5, as well as all the previously included resources to help you dive deeper as you walk through Holy Week. If you're looking for a way to slow down, reflect, and really prepare your heart for Easter, this re-air is an invitation to step into the story and let it come alive for you once again this year.
