Podcasts about Narrative

Absolute1776 and Stormy Patriot Joe dive into the latest bombshells shaking up the political landscape as Trump goes full throttle against the establishment. From exposing election fraud and deep state corruption to dismantling failed institutions, the guys break down why the media is panicking and the narrative is collapsing faster than ever. They also unpack the latest comms, analyze global power shifts, and discuss how the next few months will shape the future. With sharp insights, bold predictions, and a few well-placed laughs, this episode is a must-listen for those keeping up with the storm.  

We live in the era of misinformation. As a country, we have a bad habit of only listening to what we want to hear and accepting it as fact. In a recent "Joe Rogan Experience" interview, Rogan elaborated on how certain narratives on X/Twitter and in the mainstream media aren't organic. Instead, they are part of a larger agenda, fueled by a widespread effort to shift the culture in a specific direction. On today's episode of "Fearless," Jason applies this method of thinking to a few popular media narratives that have been pushed over the years — both in past and current news. Could the LeBron James-Stephen A. Smith feud be one of those narratives? What's the end goal? In response to Rogan's latest episode, Jason took to X to commend Rogan for striving to understand different perspectives, even when he disagrees with his guests. This led to professional Twitter pest Larry Taunton criticizing Jason's belief in empathy. Shifting gears to the world of sports, Steve Kim joins the show to discuss the ever-evolving NFL off-season. DeMarcus Lawrence is in a back-and-forth with former teammate Micah Parsons following Lawrence's departure to Seattle in free agency. Lawrence doesn't believe Dallas is anywhere close to being a true contender. What are the Cowboys' chances of winning a Super Bowl in the next 5-10 years? Meanwhile, Ryan Clark suggests that the 49ers should trade Christian McCaffrey. Is this something San Francisco should seriously consider? Rumors are swirling that Bill Belichick's much younger girlfriend is on his payroll, supposedly helping him “organize.” Aaron Rodgers appears to be following the Brett Favre blueprint, as betting odds now favor him signing with the Vikings. In other news, legendary sports author John Feinstein has passed away, prompting Jason to reflect on his favorite sports books over the years. Lastly, Shemeka Michelle joins the show as she and Jason address Roland Martin's latest feminine rant on social media about white people. Wrapping up the show, a little Listen or Lose serves as the perfect cherry on top of a jam-packed week of amazing topics and discussions. ​​Today's Sponsors: Preborn To donate, dial pound 250 & say the keyword “BABY” that's pound 250 “BABY” or donate securely at https://preborn.com/FEARLESS  Fearless Army Roll Call 3.0 Roll Call 3.0 continues the mission of men encouraging each other to pursue holiness and the execution of The Great Commission (Matthew 28: 19-20) by seeking alliance and fellowship with men who share our faith, values and commitment to obey our Lord and Savior.

From Lost In Eros – Book 1Orgy Amy, & More Games with ‘the Player'In 10 Parts By BradentonLarry.  Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels.Toshia eventually came upon Don when his head popped back up from a tangled ensemble of painted bodies, in the dark fluorescent party hall. An exotic looking woman with yellow stripes running down the length of her body was now positioning herself over Martina's face facing Don. Don gave the striped woman a smile, and then turned his attention to the green and yellow woman who had taken it upon herself to have him fuck her.Don worked his hand under her hip and gently nudged her upward. She got the idea pretty quickly, and started to lever herself up into a kneeling position without taking her mouth off the cock she'd been sucking. Don managed to move with her, kneeling as he did so. Once they were upright he began to fuck in and out of her seriously. He watched from behind as the woman's head bobbed up and down on the man's cock, almost in rhythm to the fucking Don was giving her cunt.Next to him, a man had moved between Martina's legs, lifted her by the waist and started to fuck her.The woman Don was fucking seemed to stop sucking the guy in front of her, but then Don worked out that the guy was coming. The woman leaned back, and Don sat back on his haunches to let her, so the guy she'd been sucking could scoot out of the way. Don slipped his hands around to the woman's front, where he cupped her nice medium-sized tits. She leaned back against him, turned to look at him over her shoulder, and said, “Um, thanks for the fuck. I'm Amy, by the way.”“It's my pleasure, and I'm Don,” He noticed that her face was also covered in green and yellow paint, as well as quite a spattering of cum. Don thought this was incredibly hot, and he moved his right hand down her taut belly to run his fingertips over her clit.Amy bit her lower lip and moved up and down on his cock. She said, “Keep doing that.”A man in purple and yellow paint stepped up in front of Amy with his cock in hand.“Do you mind?” Amy asked Don.“No; by all means!”Amy reached out and pulled the man's cock to her mouth and began to suck it enthusiastically. Don watched intently, while continuing to stroke her clit from behind. While she was sucking she held still on Don's cock.Glancing over to his left, Don saw the man fucking Martina pull out and shoot a long jet of cum over her lanky body. The woman riding her face leaned forward over her and sucked on the man's cock, getting her tits in the cum on Martina's belly in the process.When the guy in Amy's mouth got ready to come, she took his cock out and stroked it until it sprayed all over her face and tits. She stroked it a couple more times, and sucked on the head, finally kissing it goodbye. The guy moved off in search of other game, and Amy turned back to Don and said, “Do you like that?”“Hell yes!” he said.“I love it when a guy comes on me. Want me to do another one?”“Sure!”Amy flagged down another guy, who was more than happy to let her suck on him.Don took a moment to look over to see what Shelonda was up to, and saw her with her legs scissored with those of a cute little woman with large tits, in bright pink paint. The two women were grinding against each other intently.Don turned his attention back to Amy who was now jerking the guy's cock. He came in a thick gout that splattered on her chin and landed heavily on her left tit. Don moved his hand a little to smear the thick dollop over Amy's nipple.“Oh, nice!” she said, and began to ride up and down on him again. Another guy now stepped up in front of her of his own initiative, and she started to suck him without asking Don. She kept sliding up and down on his cock this time, though, and he started stroking her clit a bit more intently, pinching and pulling on it. The guy must have been watching Amy, because when he was ready, he pulled his cock out and stroked it for her, which enabled her to relax and enjoy the sensations in her cunt and clit. As his cum shot out and splattered all over her face, and then her tits, Amy came on Don's cock. As she shook, her hands moved over her tits and face, smearing the cum all over her. Don took his hand from her crotch and did the same, while also kissing her shoulder and neck through her hair.“I like having you watch me,” she said. “Can I keep you?”“Do you know how to get to the garden?”“No, why?”“It's not important right now,” Don laughed.“Well, what is important that you shoot your cum on my face,” Amy said with a smile.“I think that can be arranged,” Don smiled.Amy fell forward to her hands and knees, pulling off Don's cock in the process. She grabbed a couple of pillows and then lay down on her back with her head propped up, and then said, “Now bring that bad boy up here.”Don quickly complied, straddling the top of her chest. She pulled his cock down toward her mouth and said, “Just fuck my mouth until you're about to come.”Don obliged, pushing forward as soon as she had her mouth on him. He watched her, loving the look of her pretty yellow and green face as she sucked on his thick cock.Glancing to the left, he saw Shelonda crawling over to watch him and Amy. When she got there, she ran her hands over both Amy's and Don's body. This helped push Don toward his orgasm, which he had been holding off since Toshia's little gangbang in the corridor. The thought of that gangbang, and then seeing Toshia getting fucked in the pit did the trick,  He pulled back out of Amy's mouth and promptly spewed a veritable deluge of cum all over her face.Amy laughed and smiled up at him, “Thank you!”“My pleasure!” he laughed in return.Shelonda leaned down to suck on Don's cock a little and then to kiss Amy's sticky mouth.When Shelonda looked up at Don, he said, “Should we go and see what Toshia's up to?”“That should be good!” Shelonda grinned.“Who's Toshia ?” Amy wanted to know.“My friend,” Don said. “She was going a bit fuck crazy in the pit earlier.”“Ooh, my kind of gal!” Amy said. “Can I come too?”“Of course,” Don said.After they wiped the fluorescent paint off each other; Amy's taking quite a bit of time; they headed down into the main area of the disco. They cruised the long platform around the pit and worked their way through the smoke, which was now less densely populated, but saw no sign of her. They finally found her in the bubble bath room.She was about half way around the big tub. At first all Don saw was a muscular back flexing in the bubbles, and a woman's hands on the man's shoulders. A guy stood on either side of the guy with the back, and each of them were reaching in front of the main guy, and now and then leaning in front of him. As he moved around the tub a bit, though, Don saw that it was Toshia in front of the man, with her legs crooked over his forearms. The men on either side were teasing her tits and occasionally kissing her.There were other people playing in the bubbles, so Don didn't notice at first that the buxom blonde from the pit was also there. She was facing the side of the tub, bent over getting drilled from behind, while reaching over to play with the cock of the guy to Toshia's right.“Wow,” Shelonda said.“Yeah,” Don agreed. He gestured with his head toward Toshia for Amy's benefit and said, “That's Toshia .”“Sweet. You're not going to interrupt her are you?”“Hell no,” Don said, “I'm going to sit here and watch.” And he promptly sat down on the edge of the tub to do just that. Shelonda and Amy sat down on either side of him. The strobe lights made the whole show a bit bizarre, but they watched as the guy with the back apparently finished and lowered Toshia's legs. The guy on Toshia's right then stepped up in front of her, and the guy on the left moved around to the right, where buxom blonde girl reached out to stroke him. The man in front of  Toshia moved in close, and she wrapped her arms around him, and presumably, under the bubbles, her legs.Shelonda's hand stole into Don's lap and began to stroke his already very hard cock. An anonymous guy came and sat down on the opposite side of Amy. Soon she leaned over to suck on this new cock, and before long, she slipped into the bubbles to face the man and suck him from there. Don noted that this side of the tub must be shallower than Toshia's.The guy fucking Toshia finished, and as the next guy moved in front of her, she turned around to put her hands on the side of the tub. The guy now behind her began to screw her. The guy fucking Toshia's new girlfriend apparently finished and moved away, so the blonde ducked under Toshia's arm to come up in front of her and proceeded to make out with her while Toshia got fucked.Don looked down just in time to catch Amy; who was even prettier without the paint; getting rained on by a stream of cum. He smiled at her, leaned down and said, “Don't go anywhere.”Amy grinned and nodded.Then Don said to Shelonda, “I'll be right back.”Don dropped into the tub, and made his way across to just behind the guy screwing Toshia , and waited patiently. It didn't take long; the man finished and moved off to the right. Toshia continued to make out with her friend, not immediately changing her stance. Don stepped up and ran his hands over Toshia's ass. He shook his head and smiled when she merely wiggled her ass invitingly. He took his hard cock and pushed it into her very wet cunt in one smooth motion. He felt cum and Toshia's juices squishing out around his thick shaft.Toshia pushed back at him, and he began to fuck himself in and out of her. Only when he had a good rhythm going did he lean forward over her arched back and ask, “So how many cocks have you fucked here?”“Including yours?” she asked, looking over her shoulder at him.“Well, I'm not done yet.”“And just in here or since coming into the disco?”“All together.”“Eighteen.”“Eighteen?” Don said, almost stopping his fucking.“It wasn't easy keeping count, believe me,” Toshia said.“Damn,” he said, “I can only account for six, and that's impressive anyway.”Toshia kept pushing back at him, though a bit more forcefully now that she knew it was Don. “There was the guy you saw me with first,” she said. “I was just dancing, and he started grinding behind me and running his hands all over me, and then he was fucking me and I loved it. I loved getting fucked in the middle of everyone. Then, you saw the next guy; that was intense. Then I started dancing with Jamie here, and two guys came up behind us and we just kind of bent over a little and let them fuck us. They didn't come until they switched places. God, that was hot.”“I can imagine,” Don said, reaching around to squeeze Toshia's tits. He felt Jamie's fingers down below touching the base of his cock as she played with Toshia's clit.“It gets  better,” Toshia said. “After those two, we drew some attention on the dance floor, and guys swarmed all around us. There were cocks all over the place, I had two in my hands all the time, and guys were shoving their cocks between my legs, but not getting anywhere. I was getting all hot and bothered, but we eventually wound up on the steps there, and we both just got on our hands and knees on the second step. Five guys fucked me there, just one after the other, every one coming inside me. There was cum running down the insides of my legs. I must have come myself about eight times.”Don felt between Toshia's ass cheeks and noticed they were quite slick with assorted juices. As he pressed his thumb against her tight little asshole, he said, “Go on.”“Oh! Nobody did that,” she said. He felt her make an effort to relax and his thumb slipped into her. “Umm, I like that! Where was I? Oh yeah, on the steps. At one point this guy sat on the step in front of me and I was sucking on his cock while two different guys screwed me. Then I just moved up and sat on the cock in front of me. That was number, ”“Ten,” Don said. He was working both his thumb and cock in and out of her.“Yeah,  fuck! You two are going to make me come like this.”“Go on,” Don said firmly.“Um, Okay. Well, I thought we could use a break so we came up here; looking for you, by the way; and well, this wasn't much better, except that the bubbles feel nice and slippery. I had Jamie get up on the edge and was licking all the sweet cum from her cunt, when I felt someone playing with my cunt from behind. I looked back and saw a nice fellow standing there, and I just said, ‘Go ahead,' and he did. After he came, two more guys took a turn. And I loved it!”Then  Toshia was shaking with an intense orgasm, and gasping. Jaime finally stopped stroking her clit and took her mouth off Toshia's right nipple.“Hi Don,” Jamie finally said, with a big white smile.“Hi Jamie,” Don grinned back. He also saw Shelonda come and sit down over them. Don shoved into Toshia a bit harder and said, “That's only 13.”“Oh, well, I got up on the side to have Jamie go down on me, and while she was doing it, a couple of guys came by and said they'd been admiring us all evening. So, I said, ‘Well are you just going to admire us?' The one guy laughed and said, 'I want this one first,' and started rubbing his cock all over my mouth, so I started giving him a blowjob. His buddy got down and started fucking Jamie while she licked me. That was hot too! Anyway, I came ,  Fuck, Don!”Shelonda dropped down into the tub and knelt down under the bubbles. Soon, Don felt her tongue as Shelonda started licking at Toshia's clit.“Oh,” Toshia trembled.“What happened then?” Don insisted.“Well, um, I came, and then I asked the guy who I was sucking if he wanted my cunt. As it turns out he did, so I got on my back and he fucked me. His buddy climbed out of the tub and did the same after he came. God, I'm such a slut! Damn; where was I?”“Just before the last three, I think,” Don said, now intently fucking in and out of her.“Oh ,  yeah ,  uh ,  Jamie and I got back in the bubbles and were dancing and messing around when this big strong guy and his three buddies came and were dancing with us. Um ,  well ,  we wound up at this end of the tub ,  and then the big guy lifted me up and fucked me with ,  his ,  big ,  cock. And then two of his buddies,  oh god ,  they fucked me too , ! God, Don! Now you're fucking me,  let me turn around.”He pulled out of her as she pushed Shelonda away.  Toshia turned around and grabbed Don by the back of the neck and pulled him to her for a wildly passionate kiss. She got up on her tip toes, and reached down to grab his cock. Don took her ass in his hands and lifted her up, bracing her back against the wall of the tub. Then he lowered her down on his cock, and she was rocking her hips against him, while he fucked in and out of her.“Don, fuck me,” she moaned. “Come inside me!”Then she was coming again and he was coming too. He pumped hot cum up into her, while her body clenched at his with intense need. They kept fucking while they came, only slowly coming to a halt. She leaned down a bit and, holding his head in her hands, kissed him again, long and passionately.Big BedroomWhen the four of them; Toshia, Don, Shelonda and Jamie; finally climbed out of the huge tub of bubbles, they were joined by a beautiful young woman with a very nice curvy, yet trim and compact body, brown hair with blonde and auburn highlights, and a saucy, playful face. She clearly had cum on her face, throat and tits. Don said, “Toshia and Jamie, this is Amy.”Feeling extremely relaxed after the activities of the day and evening, Toshia leaned over and started to lick the delicious cum off Amy's tits. Amy responded by running her hands over Toshia's body. After several moments of this, Toshia looked up at Amy and said, “Pleased to meet you.”“Likewise,” Amy smiled.“Okay, Don,” Toshia said, turning back to him, “why don't we take a break and you tell me what you've been up to?”They sat on the edge of the tub, watching the people playing in the bubbles, while Don told Toshia about his relatively minor exploits in the pit; first fucking Shana and then Shelonda.“You fucked her in the ass, eh?” Toshia said, smiling acros

Dr. Dana Harris joins us to talk about the profound experiences that shaped her outlook on teaching and faith. We discuss God's presence in nature and the importance of theological education. Dr. Harris specializes in the book of Hebrews, so we dive into the riddle of that book. Is it a  transcript of a sermon? Is it an epistle? Who is the author, and who are the Hebrews to whom this is addressed? Most of all, what can we learn about teaching scripture from this writing? You may want to go read Psalm 95 and think of its use of Numbers 14, 20, and Exodus 17. Find out more about Dr. Harris HEREContact Cyndi Parker through Narrative of Place.Join Cyndi Parker's  Patreon Team!

While it is true that some communities face more significant environmental challenges, blaming these disparities entirely on race oversimplifies the issue and leads to ineffective policy solutions.

From Lost In Eros – Book 1Upstairs AdventuresIn 10 Parts By BradentonLarry.  Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels. Then Toshia climbed up onto the deck next to Don and said, “I like your friend.”Shelonda had gotten off Don and was now kneeling on the bench in the tub, facing them and stroking his cock. Don smiled at Toshia, and said, “She seems to like you too. Did you notice that the couple over there has been watching us?”“Oh really?” Toshia looked over her shoulder at them, then back to Don, “They're kind of cute, want me to invite them to join in?”“It's either that or back to searching for the garden,” Don said. Shelonda was now sucking on his cock.“Hum, right,” Toshia said thoughtfully. “Well, we're here, might as well make the most of it.” She twisted around and beckoned to the couple.“Well, if you feel that way, we could just get everyone here over to the mat area, and make a real orgy of it,” Don laughed.“Maybe later,” she said and gave him a quick kiss. Then she was sitting up to greet the new couple and to make introductions.Heather was a gorgeous woman with light brown skin, a cheerful smile, and long black hair hanging down her back, as well as a beautiful body with another world-class ass. Steve was a taut runner type with very light blue eyes and light hair cut very close to his scalp.Toshia slipped into the water with Heather, where the two of them got acquainted. Shelonda got up on top of Don again, but this time facing him, and Steve stood up over Don so that she could suck on his cock. As she did this, Shelonda rode back and forth on Don's body, while he reached up to fondle her tits and tease her nipples.Don could see Heather sitting up on the edge of the tub then, and knew Toshia was between her legs, but before too long the two women had made their way up onto the deck next to Don and the others where they moved into a 69, with Heather on top. Steve pulled out of Shelonda's mouth and went over to kneel behind Heather's upturned ass. While Toshia was licking at Heather's clit, Steve pushed his cock into Heather's cunt.On top of Don, Shelonda was working herself up and down on his cock as well as back and forth on his body. It wasn't long before he felt her cunt squeezing and pulling at his cock, and then she was shuddering with another orgasm. She fell forward on him, kissing his chest, and then lying there on top of him as they watched the other three playing.Steve was really plowing away into Heather, who had her face firmly lodged between Toshia's thighs. Meanwhile, Toshia was there licking and sucking at Heather while Steve's cock and balls moved right over her face. Don heard first Heather and then Toshia coming loudly over the noise of the waterfall. Then Steve was coming up inside Heather.As Don watched this with Shelonda, he got an idea and got her to let him up. When Steve pulled out of Heather, letting a long stream of cum and Heather-juice run down to Toshia's waiting mouth, Don took his place, giving a wink to Toshia, and then promptly pushing his cock into Heather's messy cunt. Heather pushed back at Don, and then lowered her face back down to Toshia's cunt and clit.Steve went over to Shelonda, who greeted him with a mouth that was eager to get him ready for more action.Don could feel Toshia licking at Heather as he fucked in and out of Heather's exceptionally hot and tight cunt. He held on to Heather's waist and fucked hard and deep into her. This time, it was Don's orgasm that set things off. He felt his balls tighten, his cock swell, and then his cum shot out of him in a long hot stream. He held still in Heather, trembling, for a long moment, and then slowly pulled out of her.As soon as Don was clear, Toshia pulled Heather down further, so she could get her mouth on the woman's cum-filled cunt. In another moment, Toshia was shaking and moaning while she kept licking and sucking cum out of Heather, all of which sent Heather over the edge again.Don sat back on his haunches, inordinately pleased with himself. Toshia and Heather were lying in a pile, with Toshia still sucking cum, and Steve had Shelonda on her back with his cock sliding in and out of her cunt. Finally, Toshia let Heather go, and the two women disentangled themselves. Heather grinned at Don, who waved back at her, and then crawled over to make out with Shelonda while Steve kept at it.Don leaned down over Toshia and said, “If you're quite through, perhaps we should hit the showers and get back to work.”Exploration ends with a bang!Toshia and Don splashed out of the hot tub and down into the pool, which they quickly crossed and climbed out of. Going to the left, they entered the large shower room. The water was, of course, wonderfully warm. Don seemed to just assume that he should wash Toshia's hair, getting a handful of SHAMPOO and starting to work it into her hair and scalp. Toshia relaxed and just enjoyed the feeling. She found herself thinking that after this was all over she would seriously considering trying to convince Sarah to try a three-way relationship with Don. She smiled at the thought and noticed that his cock was already regaining its erection. She gave it a playful pat and then stepped under the water to rinse her head. When she stepped out again, Don was there with a soapy washcloth, and began to wash her body lovingly.Yeah, she thought, definitely worth considering trying to see if this could work in the real world. He lingered over the area between her legs and she leaned on his shoulder to let the shivers pass over her. When Don finally finished there, she surprised herself by saying, “You forgot someplace,” and then turned around, bent over a bit, and reached back to spread her ass cheeks.“Oh, uh, I guess I did,” Don stammered. He didn't hesitate, though, to work his soapy cloth between her cheeks and then into her asshole. Toshia found herself wiggling her ass at him, enjoying the attention. Well, this is definitely something new, she thought. When he finished, she stood up, laughing a little to herself and got under the shower to rinse.When she was thoroughly free of soap, she turned to see Don washing his hair, cock standing out in front of him. Two options occurred to Toshia, and she chose the second one, saying, “Hey, I'm supposed to do that!”Don laughed, and said, “Well, you were busy.”Toshia shook her head at him and began to wash his hair and body as thoroughly as he had hers. While she was stroking her washcloth up and down the shaft of his now very hard cock, he pulled her into him and kissed her deeply. Reminding herself that they were supposed to be looking for the garden, she pushed away from him with a smile and said, “We can get back to that later.”When she worked her washcloth between his ass cheeks, and then mischievously pushed a finger up his ass, Toshia was a bit surprised that he didn't object or even jump. She filed that information away for future reference, as he had no doubt done with her reaction to that particular treatment.At last, when they were both clean and dry, they headed out to cross the gym. They both waved to Shelonda who was climbing out of the pool with a big, adorable smile on her face. Toshia said, “I could see bringing her with us.”“She can help if there's a fight, that's for sure,” Don said, seriously considering the suggestion.“Shelonda,” Toshia said, “do you know how to get to the garden?”“Um, no, I don't think so,” she answered. “I don't think I've ever been to the garden.”“Would you like to help us try to find it?” Toshia asked.“Sure,” Shelonda smiled. “Just let me dry off.”When she returned to them, they set off, leaving the gym and heading up the stairs in the corridor outside.As they walked, Don asked, “Shelonda, I forgot to ask earlier, do you remember anything before you were here in the Manor?”Toshia stifled a derisive chuckle, and Don shot her a mildly sheepish glance.“Before the Manor?” Shelonda seemed puzzled. “I don't understand.”“Where did you learn to fight?” Don tried.She shrugged, “I just know how. I like it. I mean, sparring; I don't like fighting for real.”The second floor was as they remembered from the day before: high ceilinged corridors, with soft carpet and dark-paneled walls. At intervals, there were candle holders set into the walls, as well as benches, which always seemed to be directly opposite mirrors. Of course, now Toshia suspected that each mirror was really a window on the other side. They could see any number of doors down the corridor which stretched away in the distance, as well as a few side corridors opening out from this one.“Did you ever fight for real?” Don asked Shelonda.Shelonda laughed, and said, “No. What's there to fight about?”“Well, how do you know you don't like it?” Toshia asked with a friendly smile.“Hum, I don't know,” Shelonda answered seriously.Toshia opened the first door on the left, while Don opened the one on the right. Though they now both thought the door to the garden would be distinctive and labeled “GARDEN”, they also had hopes of finding the Player, who had promised to help them. Toshia wasn't surprised to see that hers was a bedroom; a fairly small one by Manor standards; though, she was surprised there was no one having sex in it. She looked over at Don, who just shook his head in response to her silent inquiry as he shut his door.“I just don't think I would like fighting if it were for real,” Shelonda continued to muse.Don smiled at the young woman and reached out to hold her hand. Toshia thought he must also be a bit concerned about freaking out the poor amnesiac girl. Don asked, “Well, what would it be like to fight for real?”This was a poser, and Shelonda took a while to think about it, during which the group moved down the corridor to the next set of doors. In this bedroom, otherwise much like the previous one, she did find people having sex. A woman with rather large tits was on her back on the bed, with her head hanging off the edge. A man was in front of her, slowly fucking his cock in and out of her mouth and throat as he reached forward to squeeze and tease her tits. Lying on her belly on the bed, with her face between the legs of the first woman, was another woman quite intent on what she was doing with her mouth.“That looks like fun,” Shelonda said from next to Toshia.“Yeah it does,” Toshia nodded.“What?” Don asked as he closed his own door.Toshia pulled her door closed, and said to Shelonda, “Let's not give him any ideas.”“Why not?” Shelonda wondered.Toshia realized she didn't have an answer to that, so she just started off down the hall.“Yeah, why not?” Don asked, but he also moved on down the hall.“I think it wouldn't be play, then,” Shelonda said, abruptly returning to the earlier question. “Sparring is fun; it's play. Real fighting wouldn't be play, so it wouldn't be fun.”Toshia and Don thought about this as they checked another pair of empty rooms. Then Don said, “I guess I don't have any follow up for that.”Toshia nodded and shrugged, and they continued down the hall.Don was the next to find a room with appreciable activity. When he paused there watching, Toshia and Shelonda came over to see what was distracting him. On the floor at the foot of the bed was a man on his back. On him crouched a woman, leaning forward, who apparently had his cock in her cunt. Behind her was another man who was kneeling with his knees far enough apart that he was able to get his cock into her ass; unless, she had both men in her vagina. In front of the woman was a man with his knees bent so the woman could suck on his cock. With the exception of the man on the bottom, there was quite a bit of motion going on all around. On the bed sat two more men, watching the action and stroking their cocks.“Wow!” Toshia breathed. She had thought the things she had done already were pushing the edge.“That looks like fun too,” Shelonda said with a grin.“Have you done that?” Toshia asked her new friend.“Sure. Haven't you?”“Uh, no,” Toshia said, eyes riveted on the woman in the middle of the sexual performance. “I'm pretty sure I'm not up to that yet.”Don was looking from Toshia's face to the sex and back again. “‘Yet', eh?” he smiled. “Want to go in and get a closer look?”Toshia thought about it for a moment, but then sucked in her breath and said, “No.” She looked at Don with his impish smile, and with a twinkle in her eye said, “Yeah, not yet.”Down the corridor, they had to decide what to do at the first side corridor, continue on or turn to the right. Don, who had been in charge of checking doors on the right side, thought they should go to the right, but he admitted he didn't have anything like a good reason for this.“I'd like to continue going straight to make sure we come to the elevator and the stairwell,” Toshia explained.“Fair enough,” Don shrugged, and the trio moved on. As they continued down the long corridor, they saw a room with a writhing group of about eight women and two men spilling off the bed and onto the floor. On the other end of the spectrum, they peeked in on a lovely older woman sleeping soundly. They saw a complicated arrangement of two women with four men. They even saw three men playing together. One guy was laying back on his neck and shoulders with his legs up in the air, as another fucked his ass, and the third had his hand on the first man's cock stroking it intently.“How about that, Don?” Toshia asked with a smirk. “You up for that?”Don shrugged and said with a smile, “Eh, not exactly my style.”Finally, when they could see the elevator door and the open area where the circular stairwell was, they came to a room with one woman lying with her ass off the end of the bed. A man had her legs on his shoulders as he fucked her. Two other men were kneeling on the bed on either side of her, caressing her body and playing with her tits while the woman stroked their cocks. Three other guys were standing by, hard-ons at the ready, obviously waiting their turn.Toshia watched this intently, acutely aware of Don standing close to her with his hard cock, as well as Shelonda with her wonderful feminine body. Her face was flushed and she couldn't deny the heat in her loins. The accumulated arousal from spying on the previous rooms was only a prelude for the intensity of the eroticism of what they were watching now. She finally, said, “Now that I could be up for.”“Want to join them?” Don asked quietly.“No,” she said reluctantly. “It's her party.” She softly closed the door, noticing that she was now extremely distracted.Don led them past the elevator to the open area corresponding to the marble foyer in front of the ballroom on the floor below. This area was much smaller than the one below, and the marble stairwell took up all of one quarter of the space, as it descended to the bottom floor and ascended upward. Like below, this was a hub connecting four main corridors. There were also long, padded benches in the corner opposite the stairwell. Toshia found herself moving over to one of those benches, pulling Shelonda with her.She knew she needed to have a good orgasm to clear her head, and she knew Shelonda would be happy to oblige. Toshia sat down on the bench, and drew the other woman's face down to hers and gave her a long kiss. Then she gently pushed Shelonda down between her legs. Shelonda smiled up at her as she got down on her hands and knees, and lowered her mouth to Toshia's waiting sex. As soon as she felt Shelonda's tongue moving over her, though, Toshia knew she wanted more than that. She looked up at Don to get him to bring his cock over.But Don was looking down the corridor off to the left of the one they'd just come up. He waved, made a beckoning gesture, and then walked off into that corridor. What the hell? Toshia thought, and then, as Shelonda pushed a finger up inside her, ‘Ah, fine; your loss'. Toshia closed her eyes and leaned back against the wall, pushing her pelvis forward on the bench for Shelonda. The young woman certainly knew what she was doing, and it wouldn't take long for Toshia to come.Then, Toshia felt a noticeably masculine hand on her left tit. She smiled, and said, “Came to your senses, eh?”“I'd like to think so,” said Don's voice from in front of her.Toshia's eyes opened to see Don standing behind Shelonda. Looking to her left she saw a dark haired man with dusky, Mediterranean coloring, with his right foot up on the bench and his left hand on her tit. Then a hand moved over her right tit, and Toshia turned to see an older man with a lean physique and salt-and-pepper hair, in a pose mirroring that of his companion on Toshia's left. Both men had half hard cocks bobbing between their legs, which Toshia reached out to take in her hands.Toshia looked back at Don who was watching her with obvious amusement and arousal. She smiled at him, and began to pull and stroke on the cocks in her hands. The men were now pinching and pulling on her nipples, and Shelonda was licking at her clit furiously while fucking her fingers in and out of Toshia's cunt. Toshia imagined how she must look from Don's perspective, and then the orgasm hit her. She writhed there on the bench, anchored by the cocks in her hands and Shelonda's mouth, as wave after wave of ecstasy washed over her.At Don's gentle urging, Shelonda backed away. Toshia was vaguely aware that Don was saying something to Shelonda, but she was only paying attention to the two cocks in her hands. She looked from one to the other, and then sat up on the bench, leaning forward a bit. She tugged both men closer, and then leaned to the left to take that man's cock into her mouth. With her hand tightly wrapped around the base, she lowered her mouth down on the rest of his long shaft, all without letting go of the other man's cock, or even slowing her stroking. Toshia bobbed her head on the cock in her mouth, sucking intently on it. Then she shifted over to the other one, giving it the same treatment. Both men were stroking her hair as she went from one to the other.After a bit of this, she heard Don saying somethi

Aktuell entsteht häufig der Eindruck, als würde das Thema Nachhaltigkeit in der Logistik an Stellenwert verlieren und Wirtschaftlichkeitszielen und Wettbewerbsfähigkeit untergeordnet werden. Lutz Fricke, Head of Sustainability beim Automobillogistiker Mosolf, sieht im Bestreben nachhaltig zu wirtschaften und gleichzeitig wettberbsfähig zu bleiben keinen Zielkonflikt. Im Gespräch mit unserem Host Boris Felgendreher erklärt er wie er mit seinem Team bei Mosolf versucht Nachhaltigkeit und Wirtschaftlichkeit in Einklang zu bringen. Unter anderem geht es um folgende Themen: Kurzer Überblick der Aktivitäten der Mosolf Gruppe Green Compound – Ein nachhaltiges Pilotprojekt: - Untersuchung, wie Logistikflächen nachhaltiger genutzt werden können (z.B. Parkhäuser mit PV-Anlagen) - Optimierung der Bodenversiegelung und Wasseraufbereitung - Erkenntnis, dass ältere Standorte modernisiert werden müssen, um Nachhaltigkeitsziele zu erreichen Nachhaltigkeitsstrategie bei Mosolf: - Entwicklung einer zentrale Sustainability-Abteilung, direkt am Vorstand angesiedelt - Integration von Nachhaltigkeit in die Unternehmensstrategie (z.B. Energieproduktion, alternative Antriebe) - Ziel: Aufbau eines Mosolf Ecosystems (Energiegewinnung, Ladeinfrastruktur, emissionsfreie Transporte) Herausforderungen & Wirtschaftlichkeit nachhaltiger Lösungen: - Diskussion, ob Nachhaltigkeit und Wirtschaftlichkeit vereinbar sind - Einführung von E-LKWs (bisher 20 in der Flotte) - Notwendigkeit einer passenden Ladeinfrastruktur - Herausforderungen mit lokalen Behörden (z.B. lange Wartezeiten für Stromanbindungen) Strategische Umsetzung der Nachhaltigkeitsziele: - Nachhaltigkeitsstrategie basiert auf vier Kernbereichen: Messen, Verbessern, Reden, Planen - Messmethoden & Zertifizierungen (z.B. ISO 14083) - Einführung eines Book-and-Claim-Ansatzes, um CO2-Reduktionen gezielt an Kunden weiterzugeben - Kundenakzeptanz für nachhaltige Transportlösungen – Früher höher als heute? Veränderung der öffentlichen Wahrnehmung & Herausforderungen: - Rückgang der Nachhaltigkeitspriorität bei Kunden und Unternehmen - Einfluss von politischen Entwicklungen & globalen Trends auf Nachhaltigkeitsprojekte - Gefahr des „Zurücklehnens“ und Abwartens statt aktiven Handelns - Diskussion über Regulierung vs. Anreizsysteme – Wie können Unternehmen nachhaltig handeln, ohne zu bürokratische Hürden? Kommunikation & Wahrnehmung von Nachhaltigkeit: - Herausforderung durch zunehmend negative Narrative & Desinformation Fokus auf interne Kommunikation (Mitarbeiter überzeugen, statt nur nach außen berichten) - Notwendigkeit, Fehlinformationen gezielt zu begegnen Abschluss & Zukunftsausblick: - Plädoyer für eine bessere Diskussionskultur & gemeinsames Handeln - Fazit: Nachhaltigkeit kann nur durch Zusammenarbeit auf Unternehmens- und Gesellschaftsebene langfristig erfolgreich umgesetzt werden Hilfreiche Links: Mosolf: https://www.mosolf.com/ Lutz Fricke auf LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lutz-fricke-8749b6115/ Boris Felgendreher auf LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/borisfelgendreher/ BVL: https://www.bvl.de/

Weekly shoutout: Read the latest literary releases from Punk Noir Magazine! -- Hi there, We're back! Today I am delighted to be arts calling author Theodora Ziolkowski! (www.theodoraziolkowski.com) ABOUT OUR GUEST: THEODORA ZIOLKOWSKI is the author of the novella, On the Rocks (2018 & 2020, The University Press of SHSU/Texas Review Press) and the short story chapbook, Mother Tongues (2016 & 2018, The Cupboard). On the Rocks, winner of a 2018 Next Generation Indie Book Award, is now available as an audiobook. Ziolkowski's debut collection of poems, Ghostlit (2025), is now available. Ziolkowski's work has received support from the Vermont Studio Center, the National Alumni Association (University of Alabama), and Inprint (Houston, Texas). Her fiction, poetry, and essays have appeared in The Writer's Chronicle, Short Fiction (England), and Prairie Schooner, among over sixty other literary journals, magazines, anthologies, and exhibits. In the past, Ziolkowski has served as Poetry Editor for Gulf Coast, Fiction Editor for Big Fiction, and Assistant Poetry Editor for Black Warrior Review.

Currently, she teaches creative writing as an assistant professor of English at the University of Nebraska at Kearney. GHOSTLIT: A new poetry collection, is now available! BOOKSHOP.ORG | BARNES & NOBLE | POWELL'S BOOKS | AMAZON ABOUT GHOSTLIT: Intimate, urgent, and relentlessly inventive, the poems in Ghostlit reflect upon mythology and feminist pop culture and contemporary ideology as they may become embedded in the psyches and even the bodies of their inheritors. Through visceral and sometimes gothic-inspired images, mythological allusions, and the assemblage of strands of narrative, the poems in this collection chart the ways in which manipulative emotional strategies on individual and cultural levels inflict lingering harm upon minds and bodies. Throughout, the poems peel back the layers of what it means for an abuse survivor to reclaim a sense of self—long after the damage has been done. “It turns out that the years I believed myself lucky/were partly responsible for my thinking/there was something deeply wrong with me” could be understood as a refrain for the speaker in Ghostlit or as a shorthand for a cautionary tale about how many survivors may be encouraged to deny the reality of abuse. Thanks for this amazing conversation, Theodora! All the best! -- Arts Calling is produced by Jaime Alejandro.

Join host Adam Monahan as he examines how an email received by the series after the episode aired led to an incredible connection between the book's owner and a TV viewer who recognized something in the appraisal missed by both the guest and the expert!
