In this conversation, Jim McDonald and Jonathan Gregg explore a variety of themes, including parenting, the dynamics of living in New York City, the journey of performance and acting, mental health, and the impact of social media on personal identity. They discuss the importance of authenticity, the role of anger in society, and the significance of personal growth. The conversation also touches on fitness and the unique experiences of being a stay-at-home dad, as well as the cultural commentary that arises from their respective experiences.(Experimenting with AI-generated show notes on this one. No idea if it will make any difference in discoverability.)Jonathan is the only guest who has both been on this show and appeared in the MCU (Jessica Jones). Also, he's the only guest whose whole ass I've actually seen (HBO's High Maintenance, Season 2, Episode 1). He's super cool, and I could have kept talking to him a long time, but I'd already made him run late. You can catch Jonathan and his best friend, Tom on the No Homo Podcast -- Two best friends (one straight and one gay) riff on their daily lives, the insanity of current events, and what it means to be a man – gassing each other up while the world burns.

Big kids mean big feelings and sometimes that shows up as defiance, meltdowns, or even anxiety. In this episode, I'm breaking down what's really going on beneath the surface and why it's not just “bad behavior.” We often think school-aged is cruising with emotions but big feelings are common. I'm joined by returning guest Alyssa Campbell, a child development expert, to provide the right tools for when emotions can feel overwhelming. We'll talk about how age bias often shapes the way adults respond to older kids' emotions, why yelling or punishment backfires, and how collaborative emotional processing can help kids feel understood while still respecting boundaries. You'll learn: Why defiance is often a sign of unmet needs, not disrespect The role of age bias in how we label behavior in older vs. younger kids How collaborative emotional processing helps kids regulate big emotions Practical, evidence-based ways to respond to meltdowns, worry, and pushback using her “F.A.C.T.S.” method How to raise kids who feel both confident and connected To connect with Alyssa Campbel check out all her resources at https://www.seedandsew.org/about.

In this heart-to-heart episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I sit down with my 19-year-old son, Ethan Hagner, for a raw and honest conversation about growing up, gaining independence, and building strong family bonds in the process. Together, we explore what it means to transition from teenager to young adult while still staying connected to family values, respect, and open communication.   We dive into how to respectfully disagree with parents, how to manage emotions in a healthy way, and the importance of creating space without disconnection. Ethan shares his personal experiences—from turning down college parties to navigating long-distance relationships—and how he's developed healthy coping mechanisms like ice baths, workouts, and prayer.   This episode isn't just for parents of teens. It's for any father who wants to lead his family with grace, patience, and intention—and raise young men of character in a chaotic world.   TIMELINE SUMMARY   [0:00] - Welcome to the Dad Edge movement [1:01] - Raising independent, critical-thinking kids [2:12] - Respectful disagreements with parents and communication [3:02] - Pumpkin spice protein ice cream (yes, seriously) [5:03] - The scary truth about a Starbucks PSL's sugar content [6:42] - Why protein-first choices matter for men's health [9:34] - Introducing today's topic: family ties and independence [10:02] - Life after high school: structure vs. freedom [11:52] - Taking initiative as a young adult [13:35] - Visiting college friends and choosing not to party [15:12] - Why making different choices matters to dads [16:13] - Navigating peer pressure and honoring your values [17:02] - “Liquor is poison in a fancy bottle” – a mindset shift [18:01] - Recognizing alcohol for what it is: a toxin [21:03] - Creating safe space for respectful disagreements [23:04] - How to make kids feel seen, heard, and understood [25:21] - All emotions are welcome, not all behaviors are [26:26] - Ethan's favorite stress relief tool: beating up “Bob” [27:37] - Navigating long-distance relationships as a teen [29:13] - Classical music, cards, and healthy distraction [30:23] - Coping mechanisms that actually improve your life [32:05] - Ice plunges and dopamine boosts [34:20] - Why saunas win over cold plunges for dad [36:26] - A reminder: every man needs a list of positive go-to's [37:15] - The highs and fears of new independence [39:17] - What scares Ethan most about his future path [40:02] - Why dad feels the clock ticking at age 50 [42:25] - Book launch: The Pursuit of Legendary Fatherhood [43:17] - Two free bonus courses for a limited time [44:15] - Why this father-son podcast is one-of-a-kind [46:00] - Temptation and faith: how Ethan calls on God [48:01] - God always provides a way out of temptation   5 KEY TAKEAWAYS   1. Independence Comes With Responsibility Growing up means more than freedom—it means taking ownership of your time, habits, and health.   2. All Emotions Are Welcome—Not All Behaviors Are Feeling anger, sadness, or frustration is normal. Acting with intention is what matters.   3. Respectful Disagreements Build Connection When parents create space for respectful pushback, kids learn how to think critically while staying connected.   4. Healthy Coping Mechanisms Are Essential From ice baths and workouts to music and prayer, having go-to tools keeps stress from taking control.   5. Faith and Intention Defeat Temptation Whether it's porn, partying, or self-doubt, Ethan reminds us that calling on God in moments of weakness gives us strength to choose better.   LINKS & RESOURCES   Order the new book: The Pursuit of Legendary Fatherhood: https://thedadedge.com/legendarybook  Free Courses for a Limited Time: Creating More Patience Creating an Extraordinary Marriage   Episode page: https://thedadedge.com/1376   First Phorm Pumpkin Spice Protein: Only available for a limited time — https://1stphorm.com/collections/pumpkin-spice   James Swanwick's Alcohol-Free Program: https://www.jamesswanwick.com

Episode 364: DJ TRAUMA "From ATL to Dave Chappelle, Navigating the Celebrity DJ Scene" This week on @RoadPodcast, the crew sits down with @DJTrauma to reflect on his journey from New York to Atlanta and beyond. At (00:55), Trauma recalls growing up in Manhattan and how his DJ name came from a friend's little brother. By (04:30), he's reminiscing about partying in the Meatpacking District and what it meant to be “outside.” He explains what it means to be a “vibe DJ” (07:15). He compares the craft of DJing to stand-up comedy (10:35). Trauma then shares how a free event unexpectedly led him to working with @DaveChappelle (12:52), and a relationship that grew into legendary gigs like First Avenue in Minneapolis and Radio City Music Hall in NYC (15:56). The conversation dives into Trauma's reputation as “Chappelle's DJ” (30:01), @PhifeForever performing at his 21st birthday, and the rise of Atlanta's unified scene with @Outkast, @GoodieMob, and @JermaineDupri (34:40). He speaks on the epic Freaknik parties (45:55), the power of ATL DJs (1:03:40), and throwing LA house parties where @mr_Camron once performed in his living room (1:20:20).

Episode #335  Drinking thoughts can be frustrating after you stop drinking. I have had many conversations with women recently that prompted this episode.  If you're in "them", you're going to get through them. Drinking to quiet the thoughts only makes them stick around.  In this episode, I talk about the most common thoughts many midlife women experience, like "I could have just one," "I deserve a drink," and "Why can't I drink like others?"  I share a walk-through of what my day looked like after I stopped drinking—from waking up proud of not drinking, through the growing anticipation and stronger thoughts by afternoon and evening, to making it through despite the discomfort. I talk about some of the reasons why these thoughts come up and why they did for me personally. And, I share ideas to help you navigate these thoughts without drinking and remind you that, in time, they won't be as consistent.  If you're in "the thoughts", you're going to get through them. Drinking to quiet the thoughts only makes them stick around.  I'm with you!    Download the free Daily Sobriety Toolkit here.    Mentioned in this episode:  Article: Imagining Future Events Changes the Brain to Improve Healthy Decision Making Send me an email ✉️ Hellolori@lorimassicot.com   Private Coaching for Midlife Women  You and me = a Team to help you create and live an alcohol-free lifestyle.  I'm so passionate about the work that I do.

Is it possible to find peace and meaning in a world shaped by both chaos and order, certainty and mystery, suffering and joy? In this powerful conversation, Dr. Catherine Toon and guest Bill Thrasher dive deep into the sacred paradoxes woven throughout creation, scripture, and the human experience. From Newtonian laws to the mysteries of quantum physics, from the Tree of Life to the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, they explore how divine tension points us to truth—and how every paradox finds its pivot and purpose in the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ. This episode explores: * The balance between predictability and divine mystery * How chaos and order coexist in God’s redemptive plan * Navigating the tension between control and surrender * Why true rest is found not in certainty, but in union with Christ * How the cross reframes suffering, mystery, and peace Perfect for those deconstructing rigid beliefs or reconstructing a vibrant, Spirit-filled worldview, this conversation invites you to embrace paradox as a portal into deeper intimacy with God.

Recorded live at RE+, Sylvia Leyva Martinez, Research Director at Wood Mackenzie, hosts Ryan Chen and Neil Bradshaw from Hithium to unpack the true costs of OB3, the constraints on innovation and fire safety as result of the bill, and the future possibilities for AIDC.Neil Bradshaw is Director of Global Applications Engineering, and takes the view that even US manufacturers aren't immune from the OBBA's sweeping impact on supply chains: “imagine you are a manufacturer based in the US but you're importing parts, and all of a sudden you have a policy that comes through that changes how you bring in parts and maybe you can't find local cells or you can't find a certain component,” he says. How are manufacturers responding to this uncertainty? How are they planning for the next few years, never mind decades?Ryan Chen is Chief of Staff to the Chairman at Hithium, and he shares with Sylvia how Hithium is betting big on Texas manufacturing, investing before they even had offtake agreements in place. You'll hear how they're importing not just equipment but full-scale Chinese manufacturing practices - down to autonomous container movers - and why true scale is the only way to compete.Plus, hear how AI is driving new demand for storage, how bankruptcies are shaking up the talent market, and why even something as small as a paint colour change can cost millions in safety testing.Got power? At Hithium Energy Storage, we make sure the answer is always yes.

Navigating market volatility in retirement requires more than the traditional 60/40 portfolio. This episode explores three critical risks every retiree must address to maintain financial security through changing market conditions.The first is sequence of return risk, which can devastate a portfolio if early withdrawals align with a downturn. Listen to James share his concept of "Root Reserves", setting aside five years of stable investments to provide protection during turbulent periods without selling at a loss.The second is inflation risk. Even modest 3% inflation can nearly triple the cost of living over a typical retirement. This makes growth investments essential, even for conservative retirees, to preserve purchasing power across decades.The third is behavioral risk. There is an emotional side of investing is often overlooked. Understanding personal comfort with volatility is just as important as the numbers. Different types of fixed income play different roles, from providing liquidity to acting as portfolio ballast during market stress.By analyzing cash flow needs, time horizon, and risk tolerance, retirees can create a portfolio built to weather any financial storm.- Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

Navigating burnout, creating unique content, and running a blog with 30 million monthly pageviews with Jeanine Donofrio from Love & Lemons. ----- Welcome to episode 536 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week on the podcast, Bjork interviews Jeanine Donofrio from Love & Lemons. The Journey to Reaching 30 Million Views a Month In this episode, Bjork chats with Jeanine Donofrio, the creator of the massively popular vegetarian food blog Love & Lemons, which now receives over 30 million monthly pageviews (!!!). Jeanine shares the story behind her blog's evolution — from a personal creative outlet that she started in 2011 to a thriving business with multiple employees. Bjork and Jeanine also talk about how Jeanine balances creativity with content strategy, manages the pressure of staying consistent, and how she navigates seasons of burnout. Three episode takeaways: How and why Jeanine started focusing on SEO — Love & Lemons was monetized solely with sponsored posts for the first 8 years, before fellow food blogggers and friends convinced Jeanine to focus on SEO and monetize with ads in 2019. Jeanine explains more about why she resisted ads and SEO for so many years, and how she navigated the transition to creating content with SEO in mind. How to anticipate and navigate burnout — Jeanine has experienced four intense periods of burnout in her time as a food creator, often related to the creation and promotion of her cookbooks. She shares how she plans for these seasons, why she views burnout as a necessary step to making creative space, and how she avoids rushing herself through burnout. How Jeanine has grown her team and batches content — Jeanine explains how she has hired teammates over the years and why she decided to prioritize outsourcing certain tasks, like photography, to free up her time for recipe development, writing, and spending time with her family. She also shares a peak behind-the-scenes into her content batching process (and why she batches 30 recipes at a time).

The COVID-19 crisis pushed churches to reimagine everything from Sunday worship to committee meetings, often thrusting them onto unfamiliar digital ground. Navigating livestreams, Zoom calls, and online communion, ministry leaders have had to ask: What does it mean to truly be the body of Christ in a hybrid or even fully online world?In this episode, Michael Huerter, author of The Hybrid Congregation, talks about the theological and practical implications of digital ministry, how technology is shaping Christian community today, and what it looks like to do incarnational ministry in a time when “embodiment” often includes both physical and digital presence.THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:Michael Huerter identifies the technological revolution as a challenge that forces churches to quickly adapt, especially accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic.Churches adapted rapidly to online worship out of necessity, often improvising by streaming or recording services for the first time.Michael Huerter describes the struggle of clergy to reflect theologically about worship changes while managing weekly ministry demands.The shift to online ministry required pastors to find new ways to foster belonging and community amid isolation.Integrating online technology into church life raises theological questions but can also expand accessibility and connection.Michael Huerter explains that congregations faced difficult questions around sacraments, like communion, during virtual services and responded differently based on tradition.Worship communities discovered that virtual meetings, such as board meetings and Bible studies, created new conveniences and altered expectations for gathering together.Online ministry allows for broader participation, particularly for those unable to attend in person due to distance, weather, or health.Michael Huerter discusses the tension between the benefits of hybrid models and the losses in personal connection that come from shifting meetings and worship online.Participating in both physical and online ministry offers unique strengths and limitations in forming authentic community.The theological call to be incarnational does not require rejecting technology; rather, ministry can thoughtfully incorporate digital tools as part of discipleship.Michael Huerter pushes back against the idea that digital practices conflict with incarnational theology, highlighting historical uses of technology in church growth.Passive participation in online worship, such as listening to music or liturgy, still engages the body and spirit and remains spiritually meaningful.Michael Huerter urges pastors to approach technology with a people-first mindset, focusing on community needs rather than pursuing reach or production value for its own sake.Discernment, curiosity, and pastoral care are key for churches navigating ongoing technological changes and competing values in ministry.RELEVANT RESOURCES AND LINKS:Books mentioned:The Hybrid Congregation, by Michael Huerter131: Spiritual Leadership in the Digital Space, with Laura MurraySend me a text!
