Send us a textDrawing from Daniel chapter 3, this powerful message examines the courageous example of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego who refused to bow to King Nebuchadnezzar's golden image despite facing the fiery furnace. Their faith and conviction speak directly into the challenges Christians face today, where cultural expectations and political pressures often demand our allegiance in ways that contradict the Word of God.The tension between Romans 13—teaching that “God establishes authorities”—and the believer's responsibility to follow Christ first creates a challenging but important dilemma. As Reverend Ben Cooper boldly puts it, “God puts government in place, but then He gives us free will.” This is not a call to lawlessness, but a reminder that when human authority collides with divine command, our obedience must belong to Jesus above all.This message speaks into our divided world. Across nations and communities we see division by color, by finances, by postcodes, by schools, and even within churches. Yet the call of Christ cuts through the noise: “Am I going to follow Muppets on that side, or am I going to follow the ones that throw axes on that side? Who am I going to follow? I'm going to follow Jesus.”Through biblical exposition and practical application, the sermon challenges us to examine where we may have compromised with modern idols. These idols may not take the shape of golden statues, but they appear in ideologies, institutions, and systems that marginalize God's truth. From education systems that push Christian perspectives aside to churches that drift from biblical foundations, each believer is called to make a choice about where their loyalty truly lies.The message culminates with communion, reminding us that in Christ we discover unity that transcends political divides, denominational labels, or social barriers. At the Lord's table, we are one body, united by the cross. This unity is not found in cultural identity or human authority but in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.Wherever you stand politically or denominationally, this prophetic word will encourage you not to “conform to the pattern of this world” but to stand firm in biblical truth. It will strengthen your resolve to endure fiery trials with faith and to declare, like the three Hebrews, “Even if God does not rescue us, we will not serve your gods.”This timely message is a call to courage, conviction, and uncompromising devotion. Above all else, it is a call to follow Jesus.Support the showThank you for listening! For more inspiring content, visit our main site at RBChristianRadio.net.

Welcome to the kick off of Transmissions' new season with your host, Jason P. Woodbury, after a wonderful summer mini-series from Tyler Wilcox, All One Song: A Neil Young Podcast. We first encountered this week's guest, New Zealand songwriter, actor, and composer Bret McKenzie, as one half of the indie pop/comedy duo Flight of the Conchords in the mid-2000s. But did you know that before that, he was a member of one of New Zealand's most popular reggae party bands? "Just for context, reggae music in New Zealand is kind of rock music in America or maybe even country," McKenzie says. "Outside Jamaica, New Zealand has the highest sales of Bob Marley records in the world. And it's the music you hear playing in the background when you're out." Since then, he's gone onto composer for film and TV projects like The Simpsons, The Muppets, Spongebob Squarepants, and more, and in 2022, he released Songs Without Jokes via Sub Pop Records. Inspired by vintage Los Angeles pop, the record showcased McKenzie sans obvious jokes, but not without levity and good humor. His new album, Freak Out City came out on August 15. Bolstered by vintage electric piano and groovy and psychedelic touches, it finds McKenzie expanding his Nilsson-esque palette with touches of Steely Dan, JJ Cale, and Todd Rundgren. McKenzie joins us on Transmissions to discuss the rabbit holes of modern life, cutting the record with studio legends like Leland Sklar, the Conchords specific brand of comedy, and shares details about his proposed Emmet Otter reboot with Ed Helms. We're brought to you by Aquarium Drunkard, an independent music media crew headed by Justin Gage. Over at Aquarium Drunkard, you'll gain access to 20 years of music writing, playlist, essays, mixtapes, radio special, podcasts, videos and more.

This week, our two former puppeteers revisit the delightfully bizarre—and terribly provocative—Peter Sellers episode of The Muppet Show. Sellers arrives not as himself, but as every outrageously caricatured persona you can imagine: a fiddle-playing Romani, an overbearing German masseuse channeling Dr. Strangelove, a regal (and bearded) Queen Victoria, and a cryptic cameo as Inspector Clouseau himself.We celebrate Sellers' chameleon-like genius—but we also confront the problematic stereotypes. Many sketches now come with legitimate cultural baggage. The torqued-up massage gag, for example, walks a fine line between homage and grotesque parody. All the while, Sellers' famous existential quip—"There is no me… I had it surgically removed"—adds an unsettling and surreal layer to the slapstick.Making this episode even more a mixed bag, we find a legendary performance from Kermit that is equal parts beautiful and empowering. Join us as we unpack the comedy, the controversy, and the poetry of this episode; and why revisiting it forces us to laugh, cringe, and reflect—all at once.Join the discussion on our discord! https://discord.gg/JDtWJrhPF6Follow us on twitter @PMoNPodcast and on Instagram and Threads @puppetmastersofnoneFind out more about the puppet masters on our website: https://puppetmastersofnone.wixsite.com/puppetmastersofnoneOriginal Music Composed by Taetro. @Taetro  https://www.taetro.com/Send us a text

In this episode, the boys celebrate an incredible return to form for NSC as they thumped Orlando and re-established themselves in the eastern conference race.  There's plenty to be excited about, from our golden boot leader Sam Surridge to another MVP-type performance from Hany Mukhtar and other key contributors like Jacob Shaffelburg and 24-Hour Josh Bauer.  And don't worry, the boys have plenty of favorite things to share, like the Muppets, the best podcast about the history of rock music, and the majesty of one Weird Al Yankovic.  But wait, there's more!  Can we interest you in some wild and crazy facts about Stanley Kubrick?  Or perhaps you should form your response in the form of a question.  In any case, there's a good case to be made that the team won't lose another home game this season, and maybe Jack Maher belongs on the bench.  The boys wrap up with some big predictions for the upcoming game versus Atlanta.  And they drink beer.

Join hosts Trent and Jeni as they navigate the latest Disney news, from the immersive pirate dining experience to the Muppets' takeover of Rock 'n' Roller Coaster. Discover updates on Animal Kingdom's Zootopia show and Big Thunder Mountain's colorful makeover. Plus, insights on Disneyland's early entry changes and Spaceship Earth's maintenance. Tune in for a whirlwind of Disney excitement and insider tips!

It's almost Destination D23 weekend, but this year something's missing. For the first time in recent memory, there's no big Disney Parks panel and that changes everything. Normally this is the moment Disney fans gather for announcements and future park teases. Instead, we're left with a few scattered panels, a lot of questions, and just maybe a glimmer of hope for a Villains Land reveal.In this off-season episode, the Idiots dig into why Disney might be holding back, how last year's mixed reception could be shaping their strategy, and what the lack of a panel says about the relationship between the company and its fans. We also share our fantasy Parks Panel predictions, from safe bets to wild long shots, because even when the news is quiet the speculation is loud.Settle in and join us as we unpack what could have been or what may be.Send us a textSupport the showDon't forget to check us out on Instagram!
