WHAT MOVIE TRAILERS INFLUENCE YOUR DECISIONS? Did you know that when you open Netflix and arrive on the main menu, the preview you see is different from person to person, depending on your watch history? If you've been watching a lot of romance movies, the scenes Netflix shows you will highlight love and emotional moments. If you tend to watch action movies, you'll see explosions, fast-paced scenes, and high-intensity moments instead. If you love comedies, they'll show you the funniest parts of the series. Yes, Netflix is choosing which movies and TV shows to present to you, but it's also selecting which scenes from those shows to display, all based on your viewing history. Now here's the interesting part: our brain works the exact same way.

A call for retirement villages to speed up their payment processes. The Government's looking to change the law so retirement villages have to pay back departed residents in 12 months. Labour wants to see it reduced to three months. Retirement Village Residents Association national president Brian Peat says a Consumer NZ petition for the three-month policy has received more than 40 thousand signatures. He told Ryan Bridge all they've ever asked for the repayment to occur in longer than three months and for it to apply to existing residents. Peat says the Coalition Government now has to step up to the challenge, because they're not going to give up on this review. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Exponential Australia Church Leaders Podcast, Charlie sits down with Pastor Joel Chelliah, National President of the Australian Christian Churches, for a wide ranging and deeply pastoral conversation as we build toward the National Gathering on the Gold Coast. Joel reflects on the shift from state leadership into a national role, and the intentional boundaries he and Sharon have had to put in place to protect rest, marriage, and family while stewarding a growing apostolic assignment. Joel's keynote focus for this year is launching church expressions, and he names two major barriers that repeatedly hold churches back: the lack of a discipleship leadership pipeline, and fear of the cost involved in sending and planting. He reframes planting as gaining by losing, sharing how years of costly sowing have produced lasting fruit across communities, and offers a striking picture of release: what you hold will never multiply, but what you place in God's hands always can. The conversation then moves into the heart of healthy leadership. Joel speaks candidly about the difference between genuine Kingdom ambition and ego driven striving, shares the moment God redefined success for him as a healthy home that loves Jesus, and offers practical pastoral counsel for leaders carrying stress, burnout, or unrealistic expectations. He closes with a prayer for renewed faith across the Australian church, that leaders would leave Exponential believing again that God is doing a fresh work and that it is time to do something courageous for Him.

On Monday, April 13 at 7pm ET, VBC Live welcomes national leaders of Vietnam Veterans of America for a candid and timely discussion about the organization's future. Joining us are Thomas Burke, National President; Dominick Yezzo, National General Counsel; and James McCormick, Executive Director for Government Affairs. Nearly five decades after its founding, VVA faces a generational turning point. As Vietnam-era veterans age, the organization must determine how to preserve its identity and mission while ensuring continuity. Should membership remain exclusive to Vietnam-era veterans, or expand to include those who served in later conflicts? What structural or governance changes are under consideration? These questions surfaced forcefully at last year's national convention in New Orleans, where debate over the organization's direction revealed both deep loyalty to its founding purpose and strong differences over how best to move forward. On this program, our guests will explain the options being discussed, reflect on what is at stake, and share their own stories of military service and decades of advocacy. This conversation offers a respectful forum to better understand the choices ahead and the legacy VVA seeks to carry forward.
Is the American Dream of homeownership slipping away, or is it being taken? In this episode of Purple Political Breakdown, host Radell Lewis sits down with Ashley Thomas III, National President of the National Association of Real Estate Brokers (NAREB), the nation's oldest minority real estate trade association, founded in 1947 to fight for democracy in housing. Ashley is also the CEO and Founder of LA Top Broker, Managing Broker of First Security Investment Co., Inc. (one of the country's oldest Black-owned property management firms), and a 2026 Inman Power Player recognized for his leadership in housing equity. With over 25 years in real estate and mortgage lending, Ashley brings deep expertise to a wide ranging conversation about the systemic barriers blocking Americans, and Black families in particular, from building wealth through homeownership. The numbers are stark: white homeownership sits at roughly 72%, while Black homeownership hovers around 43%, a gap nearly as wide as it was when the Fair Housing Act passed in 1968. Together they explore why student loans on deferment still count against mortgage applicants, how credit utilization penalties punish people who have never missed a payment, and why married couples in nine community property states face an absurd imbalance where a spouse's debt counts but their income does not. Ashley breaks down NAREB's Community Property Fairness Initiative, the bipartisan housing bill targeting institutional investors who have been buying up entire neighborhoods since the 2008 foreclosure crisis, and practical solutions most people never hear about, including Section 8 voucher conversion to homeownership and zero dollar down payment assistance programs. The conversation also covers the national housing inventory shortage (America is roughly 4 million homes short), rising insurance costs that can exceed mortgage payments, property tax burdens on generational wealth transfers, appraisal bias in Black communities, and the connection between housing policy and economic mobility. Ashley also shares details on NAREB's upcoming national initiatives: Realtist Week (April 12 to 18, 2026) featuring homebuyer education and credit literacy events across 115+ boards nationwide, and the 8-City Affordable Homeownership Bus Tour (April 25 to May 2) in partnership with the African American Mayors Association, with stops in Baltimore, Philadelphia, Detroit, Gary, Kansas City, Memphis, Little Rock, and Tulsa covering sessions like Development for the People, Credit Power, and From Housing to Homeownership. He also highlights Realtist Restore Day (June 27), a national day of service mobilizing local boards to support families with home restoration. Whether you rent or own, this episode lays out the policies, the problems, and the solutions that affect every American's ability to put a roof over their family's head.

Last month, thousands of farmers across the country burnt symbolic copies of the India-US trade deal. They were protesting against the interim framework for a trade deal that India had signed with the US. While the Union government has emphasised that they have kept sensitive agriculture products out of the deal, farmers' outfits and Opposition parties have said that the government has surrendered the interests of Indian farmers. It is being said that cheap, highly subsidised American produce will flood Indian markets, depressing domestic prices and hitting rural incomes. But the government claims that the deal will have safeguards built in, and so Indian farmers have nothing to worry. But farmers' organisations are planning to intensify their protests in the coming weeks. Why are they not convinced by the government's assurances? What are their concerns? And what are their demands?

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, the ruling class elitists in Europe and America betrayed their countries by refusing honest debate about uncontrolled immigration of Islamists. These elites encouraged and allowed overwhelming border surges, motivated partly by Islamist strategies to conquer the West. In the U.S., Democrats pursued open borders, try to defund enforcement like ICE to build a future voting base of illegal immigrants. Islamists will vote Democrat temporarily before ultimately destroying both parties and taking over, as seen in parts of Europe, NYC, and Dearborn. The NYC terrorist attack is an example: two young Muslim men, inspired by ISIS, attempted to bomb an anti-Islamist protest, shouting "Allahu Akbar" but the devices failed. Mainstream media and Democrats downplayed or obscured the Islamist terrorist motive, framing it vaguely as devices at an anti-Muslim rally, condemning Islamophobia instead, and avoiding the truth of a near-mass-casualty jihadist attack, which the speaker sees as part of a broader pattern of cover-up by media and elites who tolerate or support such threats. Also, the Iranian regime is not finished off. Let's stick with the plan. Condition-based operations. The media and the Democrats will howl like coyotes no matter what. Any economic impact will be temporary. But the worst outcome would be a prematurely declare victory and the Iranian regime lives to slaughter and nuke another day. Later, the SAVE America act is a no brainer and Democrats desperately oppose it because they benefit from fraudulent practices enabled by big-city political machines. Sen Chuck Schumer acts like a modern George Wallace by insisting everyone should vote—not just legal voters—allowing illegal ballots, double voting, or votes for the deceased to neutralize legitimate votes. Much of this fraud is allegedly legalized, making proof difficult and necessitating stricter statutes like voter ID requirements. Finally, Mort Klein, National President of the Zionist Organization of America, calls in and explains that that the United States would need to confront and attack Iran even without Israel's existence, due to nearly 50 years of direct hostility toward America. This operation must continue to dismantle the regime, protect American lives, prevent nuclear acquisition, and support Iranians desiring freedom, marking the end of past U.S. policies of delay and concessions.

In honor of International Women's Day 2026, End Witch Hunts hosted a powerful panel discussion bringing together advocates, legal experts, journalists, and survivors to raise awareness about witchcraft accusations targeting women in Nigeria and across Africa. This conversation is part of the global "Give to Gain" initiative — the theme of International Women's Day 2026 — calling on individuals, organizations, and governments to give resources, empathy, legal support, and voice so that women accused of witchcraft can gain justice, safety, and dignity.Witchcraft accusations disproportionately target women, especially those who are poor, widowed, elderly, or otherwise vulnerable. Accusation can mean social ostracism, physical violence, displacement, imprisonment, and even death. Our panelists shared firsthand experience, legal expertise, and on-the-ground advocacy work illuminating what is happening in Nigeria today and what all of us can do about it.How witchcraft accusations specifically harm women and compound existing inequalityThe psychological toll of accusation, including self-doubt and mental health impactsLegal protections that exist in Nigeria and why they are not being usedHow women can seek justice through courts, NGOs, and community channels even without financial resourcesThe role of patriarchy, poverty, and community silence in perpetuating accusationWhy empowerment and financial independence are protective factorsHow diaspora communities outside Nigeria are funding witchcraft accusations back homeWhat governments, international organizations, media, and individuals can give to create real changeThe critical importance of reaching rural communities in local languagesDr. Leo Igwe is the director of Advocacy for Alleged Witches (AfAW), an initiative working to end witch hunts in Africa by 2030, and the Critical Thinking Social Empowerment Foundation.

In this episode, I'm coming to you live from NAPSA Congress, the National Australian Pharmacy Students' Association's week-long flagship event that brings together pharmacy students from across Australia. The Congress is packed with education sessions, workshops, social events, networking opportunities, and a vibrant trade exhibition, and this episode captures the energy of being right in the middle of it all. I spoke with Sebastian Harper from Griffith University, NAPSA's National President, Sebastian Schulke from the University of Queensland, and Mia Avram from Monash University and NAPSA's National Treasurer. We spoke about their favourite moments from Congress, what stood out most, and the key learnings they will be taking forward into their future pharmacy careers. Our conversations explored a wide range of timely and important topics, including practical insights into probiotics, the expanding role of pharmacists in harm reduction and dependency services such as naloxone take-home programs, and the skills of full-scope physical assessment. We also discussed how pharmacists can better support patients using GLP-1 agonists, from counselling to ongoing care, and what it really means to serve your community as a healthcare professional. We also touched on highlights from Pharmacy Student of the Year (PSOTY), unpacking the qualities that set leaders apart, as well as a thoughtful conversation on authenticity in pharmacy. We discussed why being yourself matters, how to avoid the "pharmacist Barbie" stereotype, and the value of showing up as a real, relatable professional. This episode was recorded live in the trade exhibition space at NAPSA Congress, so you may hear some background noise throughout. Every effort has been made to optimise the audio while keeping the authentic atmosphere of Congress intact.

BSMC National "P" Humiliated, Forced to Remove His Colors by 1%ersToday on Black Dragon Biker TV, we're talking about a hard lesson from the motorcycle set that many clubs don't want to face — but need to hear. The StoryBeing in a motorcycle club is one of the greatest feelings in the world for many bikers. From riding clubs to 99%er family clubs, the fellowship and lifestyle are unmatched. But when your club exists in the same ecosystem as 1%er/outlaw MCs, there's another side you have to deal with — protocol.If your club respects and follows MC protocol, you'll usually ride the set in peace. But if you refuse? Things can get ugly.In today's story, the National President of the Mighty Black Sabbath MC Nation allegedly ignored and refused to recognize MC protocol. The result? He was humiliated and forced to remove his colors by 1%ers.️ The LessonThis situation serves as a warning to every MC: Disrespecting or ignoring MC protocol can escalate fast. What starts as a “tongue-lashing” can quickly turn into violence, shootings, war, prison, or even graves. The wise will view this as a lesson, not entertainment.
