The Power of the “Kept” WordLuke 11:28: KJV: 28 But He said, “Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the Word of God and keep it.”Other translations:AMP: 28 But He said, “On the contrary, blessed (happy, favored by God) are those who hear the word of God and continually observe it.”NIV: He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”NLT: Jesus replied, “But even more blessed are all who hear the word of God and put it into practice.”NASB: But He said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God and follow it.”SLT: And he said, Rather, happy they hearing the word of God, and watching it. 3 words to pay attention to: · Blessed is from Makarios – and it meand to be fortunate or favoured by God· Hear is from akuo – and it simply means to hear what was said· Keep – it is the Greek word “Phulasso” – and it means through the idea of isolation, to watch i.e. be on guard, observeSo, a person is favoured by God or is deemed fortunate when he hears the word of God and observes or obey it or puts it into practiceHow do you put it into practice?First you must hear it.This is the reason why you can't have faith beyond what you constantly hear.Rom 10:17 NLT: So faith comes from hearing, that is, hearing the Good News about Christ.Faith comes by hearing the Good News - not the bad news.Fear will come by hearing the bad newsThe word of God (specifically one based on the finished work of Christ) will build faith in you hence why you must hear it and hear it and hear it.Don't hear the gospel today and tomorrow go and hear fear-based message, it will destroy your faith or rather, your faith will become leaky!If you have never heard a message that God has healed you in Christ, then you can't believe for it and when you don't believe for it, you can't experience it. Favour Affirmation for the yearThe favour of God surrounds me like a shield producing supernatural increase, promotion, restoration, honour, increased access, greater victories, recognition, prominence, preferential treatment, petitions granted, policies and rules changed and battles won that I don't have to fight. Favour is mine in all things. This is my set time for God's favour. God is doing for me what my natural abilities and connections could not do. I am blessed and highly favoured of God in Jesus' Name!'

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.public.newsThe mainstream story about Joe Biden has long been that he would bring “adult supervision or gravitas” to political life, notes investigative journalist Peter Schweizer. As someone who had served on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Biden ostensibly offered a “greater understanding of politics…. Joe Biden has made a career off that. When he ran against Donald Trump in 2020, he tried to make the case that the adults are back in town.”In truth, says Schweizer in a new interview with Public, Biden was a pioneer in “offshoring his corruption.” As soon as he became Vice President, Biden's son Hunter and his brother James “started doing deals, not in Tokyo, not in London, but in Ukraine, Russia and China.Haven't other political leaders made money by having family members sell access to them? Sure, say Schweizer. The difference with Biden was both the scale of the influence peddling, and that it happened with so many enemies of the United States.“The Biden family has taken in tens of millions of dollars. The people who send him millions of dollars with nothing discernible being given in return are directly tied to the spy apparatus of China. All the people involved had ties to Chinese intelligence. And there's no discernible evidence that Hunter Biden brought anything of value to the table other than his name and his connections to his father and his father's political power.”And the millions from China appear to have changed Biden's behavior.

With only two games played in League Two this week due to it being FA Cup weekend, and with some clubs not playing at all, Jordan is joined by Luke, Keiron and Jack (making his FTF debut) to take a look back at their start of season predictions, and how on target or wide off the mark they thought certain teams would be heading into the festive period.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.public.newsThe conventional wisdom has long held that Democrats are the party that protects the little guy. Democrats are the party of working people while Republicans are the party of the rich, the thinking goes. Democrats are the party of anti-racists and people of color whereas Republicans are the party of whites and racists, people say, pointing to Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's labeling of white supremacists as “very fine people” after a 2017 protest in Charlottesville, Virginia. Finally, Democrats say they are the party of women's empowerment, gender equality, and the “Me Too” movement, whereas the Republicans are the party of sexism and sexual harassment, as demonstrated by Trump and Supreme Court Justices Bret Kavanagh and Clarence Thomas.Reality is more complicated. A recent poll finds that manual laborers in Pennsylvania favor Trump over Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris 56% to 36% while upper-middle-income voters ($100k–$200k/year) favor Harris. Harris recently promised loans to black Americans in violation of the Civil Rights Act, Trump never called neo-Nazis “very fine people,” and he “might well return to the White House by faring better among Black and Hispanic voters combined than any Republican presidential nominee since the enactment of the Civil Rights Act in 1964,” noted the New York Times last week.” Finally, there is no evidence to suggest that Republican politicians harass or sexually assault women at higher rates than Democrats. The accusations against Trump, Kavanagh, and Thomas were “he said, she said,” thus unprovable, and at least three women accused Bill Clinton of sexual assault or harassment.
This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.public.newsThe government needs to step up its efforts to fight health misinformation, say Bill Gates, Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama, because it's reducing public trust in the medical establishment. “People are dying because of misinformation,” said Obama in a 2022 Stanford speech to promote a sweeping government censorship agenda. In his new, heavily-promoted Netflix documentary, Gates called for AI-powered mass government censorship of people who raise questions about vaccines, citing the conspiracy theory that microchips were in Covid vaccines.But it's the medical establishment itself, not misinformation, that causes public distrust, says Johns Hopkins physician Marty Makary in his outstanding new bestseller, Blind Spots, and in a fascinating two-hour conversation with me.“The biggest topic in our medical journals right now is mistrust in the medical establishment,” he said. “They're scratching their heads. ‘People don't trust us, and it must be because of those spreading misinformation.'... No, the reason they don't trust the medical establishment is because it was lying to them for three years during the Covid pandemic.”America's health and medical system does a lot of good, emphasizes Makary, who also holds a Master's degree in Public Health (MPH) from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. Makary stresses that the overwhelming number of people in the health and medical establishment are well-intentioned and motivated by compassion for their patients and a desire to cure disease. “The rank and file doctor often thinks independently, is creative, and takes in multiple sources of information,” he says.But the health and medical system as a whole has failed, Makary argues. Proof of this can be found in the fact that “half of all federal spending is going to health care in its many hidden forms,” he says, and yet the American people are “getting sicker and sicker… Chronic diseases are on the rise. Cancers are on the rise. And we have the most medicated generation in human history.”Health is arguably the most important issue facing the country. It's not just a life-and-death issue; it also centrally affects our quality of life. The American Academy of Pediatrics' poor track record is so scandalous that we will publish a follow-up article on how it is still making recommendations based on ideology, not science.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.public.newsThe biggest unsolved mystery of the 2024 presidential election is how Kamala Harris got the Democratic nomination. After all, she was so unpopular with Democratic voters in Iowa that she dropped out of the race in December 2019. Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and many other Democratic Party leaders all wanted Party delegates to vote for Biden's replacement at the Democratic National Convention next month. It was flagrantly undemocratic for President Joe Biden to just declare Harris the Party's presidential candidate. So why did he do it?

Send us a Text Message.Has your mental health ever been impacted by the things you see on the news? You're not alone. In this episode of From Survivor to Thriver, we sat down with Julie Rose, who struggled with this to the point that she started avoiding it completely. Today, she shares the story of how she learned to manage her anxiety and start sharing the news in her own way that leaves people feeling informed and empowered rather than anxious and scared. Hearing the news doesn't have to fill you with dread and anxiety. Join us as Julie shares how there really is a better way to be informed about the world without sacrificing your mental health. Julie Rose has been a radio journalist for 20 years, reporting for NPR local stations and network shows like Morning Edition and All Things Considered. In 2015, she began hosting a nationally syndicated live interview show on Sirius XM 143 called Top of Mind. But, after several years on the air every day, she began fighting the urge to avoid the news completely, because of how anxious and angry it made her feel. She knew she couldn't be alone in that. So, in 2022, a new format for Top of Mind became the answer. Now a weekly podcast, the show tackles tough topics in a way that's honest and probing, but also leaves people feeling empathetic and empowered. Julie has since become an advocate for bridging divides in public discourse, something needed more now than ever before because news avoidance and polarized information sources are a serious problem. She feels strongly that we can't just avoid the news and expect to build the communities we want to live in. Julie has received a Gracie Award and multiple Edward R. Murrow Awards for her work in her field. In today's episode, we cover: The impact the news can have on your mental healthThe power of simply acknowledging what you're feeling How Julie came to create her podcast Balancing solution-oriented, unbiased views on the newsThe importance of curiosity and creative thinking in conversations What to do instead of skimming the news headlinesWe hope you enjoyed this conversation with Julie!

On a damp autumn evening in 1945, Caroline Evans made her way on foot from her home in Coedpoeth, North Wales to the neighbouring village of Minera. Since her father died the 38 year old school teacher made the trip every Saturday evening to visit her mother. She always took the same shortcut on a narrow, secluded footpath through Pant Tywyll, or Dark Hollow. This time Caroline didn't arrive safely at her destination and early the following morning her battered body was found by a farm worker. Strange reports came in from witnesses and an investigation began which saw Scotland Yard detectives navigating anonymous tips, dramatic confessions and an elusive suspect.

It's no revelation that success is the sum of preparation and opportunity, yet it's always inspiring to witness the philosophy in action. On today's podcast episode, San Diego-based painter Ezra Brown joins host and NOT REAL ART founder Scott “Sourdough” Power to chat about the power of perseverance in an oversaturated industry. “I'm a late bloomer,” says Ezra, who dropped his day job during the pandemic to focus on a career in fine art. “I've been [painting] for such a long time, and I had been waiting for my opportunity to hit,” he tells Scott, adding, “In this day and age, you've got to do what makes you happy.”Ironically, Ezra's signature character, a vintage-style cartoon called Happy the Clown, is anything but. Starring as the protagonist in Ezra's recent show at LA's ThinkSpace Projects, Trying to Keep It Together, Happy drinks, smokes, and cries as his house burns, his soul leaves his body, and his girlfriend leaves him. Like many artists before him, Ezra encourages viewers to access and cope with their own emotions as he puts Happy through the wringer. “I'm tired of the norm ... just watching art on a wall, walking away from it, having a drink, and forgetting about it,” Ezra says. “I'm creating an experience that somebody's going to remember and talk about for the rest of their life.” In the episode, Scott and Ezra chat about humanizing classic iconography to access raw emotions. They also cover the pitfalls of parenthood, the dangers of social media, and Ezra's recent collaboration with collectible toy company Tenacious Toys. Tune in to the episode below to hear about Ezra's creative success, and the dedication it took to get there. “You have to make those sacrifices,” he says, “and put in the extra work.”In Today's Podcast EpisodeEzra Brown discusses…How the pandemic bolstered his fine art careerWhy people connect with his raw, emotional, often funny worksHis instinct to challenge the status quo and create memorable experiencesHow his father, also an artist, inspired his creative careerThe exaggerated narratives portrayed on social media and national newsThe challenge of being a parent in the age of social mediaThe surprising overlap between the fine art and the collectible toy marketsThe recent explosion of experiential and immersive artThe many benefits of perseverance, fortitude, and determinationFor more information, please visit http://notrealart.com/ezra-brown

#cannabis #legalization #news501 views • Streamed live 60 minutes ago • #cannabis #legalization #newsThe news of federal cannabis legalization is sweeping the nation, bringing with it a tidal wave of optimism and enthusiasm. Many stakeholders in the marijuana industry have been eagerly awaiting this moment and are now celebrating the long-awaited move to legalize at the federal level. This historic change comes as part of the broader effort to reform marijuana laws across the country and end the War on Drugs. As part of this effort, President Joe Biden has proposed a sweeping package of pardons for those with marijuana convictions, which will help pave the way for individuals to heal from generations of criminalization. The Schumer legalization bill in the US Senate is a key component of the larger effort to reform marijuana laws nationwide. The bill, introduced by Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY), would remove cannabis from the list of Schedule I drugs, thereby decriminalizing it and allowing states to regulate it as they see fit. It would also expunge federal. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has labeled tetrahydrocannabinol (THC-o), a synthetic psychoactive derived from hemp, as a Schedule I substance under the Controlled Substances Act. This designation places THC-o in the same category as heroin, LSD and ecstasy and makes it illegal to possess or use. #cannabis #legalization #news Get in touch with us:

The European eel (Anguilla anguilla) is a snake-like, migratory fish. Eels spend most of their adult lives as freshwater fish, but are born and die in the ocean. How they're born and how they die scientists are still trying to figure out. And we better figure it out quickly because European eel are a critically endangered species. So no jellied eels for you. But first:Jennifer tells the story of her boomer encounter in the doctor's office. And by boomer, we mean, OK boomers, the group of boomers who don't care how their behaviors affect other people.In the Good, the Bad, the NewsThe bad, Cuomo is a dick and he abandoned his dog. And Amber reads some comedic crime blotters.The good, 4oceans Solar-Powered Beach Robot filters plastic 30x faster than humans. Then, Patagonia (the outdoor clothing company) dumps a ski resort which held a far-right fundraiser. Fuck Marjorie Greene. So little is known about European eels that up to 1777, we didn't realize eels were fish and thought that they spontaneously generated in the "guts of wet soil". Sigmund Freud couldn't find the eel's male sex organs and gave up on biology entirely in frustration. European eels may use magnetic fields to navigate thousands of miles through the Atlantic Ocean, but who knows why they travel thousands of miles to spawn. Lots of people like to eat European eels, so poaching and smuggling is a big threat to the species. We also have not figured out how to raise them in captivity. Listen now to learn about the European eel, an animal we like to eat, but know very little about.For more information on us, visit our website at betterthanhumanpodcast.comFollow us on Twitter @betterthanhuma1on Facebook @betterthanhumanpodcaston Instagram @betterthanhumanpodcasthttps://www.tiktok.com/@betterthanhumanpodcastor Email us at betterthanhumanpodcast@gmail.comWe look forward to hearing from you, and we look forward to you joining our cult of weirdness!#betterthanhuman #cultofweirdnesYou've got two empty halves of coconut and you're bangin' 'em together.

Chanel Cleeton's latest Cuban historical, The Most Beautiful Girl in Cuba, covers the remarkable real-life story of Evangelina, a young Cuban noble woman who became an “overnight celebrity” in a bitter New York circulation war that birthed the world of newspaper tabloid journalism we see today. Hi there, I'm your host Jenny Wheeler, and today Chanel talks about the birth of yellow journalism and the role the Cuban War of Independence in the 1890s played in its creation. It's a colorful story, poignant, with lots of human emotion and larger than life characters, like William Randolph Hearst and his bitter rival Joseph Pulitzer. Six things you'll learn from this Joys of Binge Reading episode: The special pleasure in writing her family's storyEvangelina's remarkable influenceHow intense Press Baron rivalry helped spark a warThe role of female stunt journalists in sensationalizing newsThe wonderful camaraderie of the Reese Witterspoon clubMore Perez family stories to come Where to find Chanel Cleeton: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chanelcleeton/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AuthorChanelCleeton/ Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/7383025.Chanel_Cleeton Bookbub: https://www.bookbub.com/profile/chanel-cleeton Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Chanel-Cleeton/e/B00G1BWPD2 What follows is a "near as" transcript of our conversation, not word for word but pretty close to it, with links to important mentions. But now, here's Chanel. Introducing author Chanel Cleeton Chanel Cleeton - Reese Witterspoon Book Club selection Jenny Wheeler: Welcome back, Chanel. It's great to talk with you again. Chanel Cleeton: Thank you so much for having me again. I'm thrilled to be here. Jenny Wheeler: For those who weren't with us then, you were on the show in 2019 with your first Cuban historical, Next Year in Havana, which had the distinction of being a Reese Witherspoon Book Club Choice. Now you've got your third Cuban historical out, The Most Beautiful Girl in Cuba. These books are wonderful. You're digging back into your own heritage with these stories., aren't you? Tell us a little bit about your family links with Cuba. Chanel Cleeton: I'm Cuban American. My family came over from Cuba in 1967 after the revolution in 1959. They came to the United States as refugees, and I grew up on their memories of Cuba and their love for their homeland, and so it's been fascinating for me to be able to explore that part of my heritage and learn new things about Cuban history as I go back in time and imagine what my ancestors' lives might have been like. Jenny Wheeler: This book draws more heavily on true events than the earlier ones did, and it reveals some harrowing information about the way the Cuban population suffered in the War of Independence in the late 19th century. Did knowing that it was your family's shared experience give this period a special interest and poignancy for you? Chanel Cleeton: It really did. It was one of those things where I asked my grandfather about it and if he had heard anything, because it's something my great-grandparents would have lived through. Unfortunately, I don't know what my family's experiences were like during that time period, but it definitely made me interested to imagine what it would have been like for them in such heightened and also important times in Cuban history. The real Evangelina Cisneros It was interesting to be able to go back to that and look at what my fictional characters went through and imagine what my ancestors would have as well. Jenny Wheeler: We've mentioned that it's based on true events and it's built around the story of a real-life woman who attracted American interest. She was well born, she attracted the ire of the Spanish authorities and was thrown into a confined situation for reasons that are really very feeble, because they suspected her father of something.
It's true that Fratello boasts one of the more multinational teams. One of our listeners from Finland decided to take advantage of that by asking us about watch culture around the globe. How do people come together, do they come together, and do they even like watches in some countries? We don't have all the answers, but we enjoyed the chat. This time, it's Mike, Jorg, and Balazs on the mics for a bit of banter.Wrist check and the newsThe gents roll through a "Handgelenks Kontrolle" and you'll find a lovely Rolex GMT-Master 1675 on the wrist of our main Magyar, Balazs, who happens to be in his homeland. Jorg hails from the land of wooden shoes and tulips and is there watching the pounding rain. He's sporting his beloved Omega Speedmaster Professional X-33. Mike comes from the land of the free and the home of the brave, but he's back in Germany. This time, he's wearing his Grandfather's '90s Rolex Datejust 16220. Talk about watch culture! As far as news, we highlight the free hardbound 60th-anniversary catalog that everyone can, and should, order on the Sinn website.Watch cultureThe trio talks about watch culture, how "get-togethers" work (and don't work) depending on the country. The USA looms large here because people are spontaneous and seem to have few qualms about bringing expensive wares to a group of strangers. Europe, as no surprise, is a bit more conservative and privacy-focused. Neither is right nor wrong, but there are definitely differences no matter where you travel.

The song is: The Power of Love by Huey Lewis and the NewsThe love that God has for us is so powerful!We dive into a few different types of love, and the quote of this episode is:"If you only love those that love you back, what kind of love is that"?
Intro: I believe that we, in the evangelical church, need to recover the real meaning and significance of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. We have been commissioned by the Lord Jesus Christ to be the Body of Christ and go and make disciples. Why? Because there are a lot of hurting people around us who have no peace and lack hope. Sin, rebellion against God, which isn't dealt with in our lives, will always result in unrest, insecurity, doubt, and disappointment. The life, death, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ is the only way us to realize true peace and hope. In other words, when a person puts their trust in the person and work of Christ, we are forgiven of our sin past, present, and future. Because of the victory of the resurrection (God's stamp of approval on the power of the resurrection), Jesus conquered sin, death, and Satin. You see, we can live and rest in the security of Jesus' love, guidance , and have hope. This is the real importance of the resurrection of Jesus. Matthew give us some great insights into how the resurrection can turn despair into hope and peace. Let me set the stage. On Friday, Jesus was crucified, died, and buried. The disciples though that Satin won, sin was victorious, and all hope was gone. They were hiding and locked in the upper room out of fear that they were going to be killed also because they followed Christ. We meet the 2 Marys who had the courage and heart on that Sunday morning to finish the burial rights of Jesus' body, so they went to the tomb. They were mourningJesus had been with them for over 3 yearsThey experienced His leadership, discipleship, and most of all His love.They were afraid of the unknown since their Lord was gone nowThere was a very big obstacle between them and the body of JesusThere was a high stone that blocked the entrance to the tomb plus it was sealed by the governmentHow would they move that incredibly big stone?Would they be able to finish the burial rights for Jesus' dead body?What will the guards do to them if they tried to get into the tomb?Where do we go from here??The resurrection gives real hopeWhen we contemplate the resurrection of Christ e.g. Easter, we begin to understand how the resurrection can transform hopelessness and despair into a living and dynamic faith.God removed the big obstacle: God did it all!God send a messenger to bring the message of assurance that Jesus is alive!He tells them, "Don't be afraid..."How can the angel say this? Because Jesus rose from the dead and He is Alive!Jesus kept His promiseThe angel invited them to look and see for themselvesDespair and fear, and hopelessness, was turning into a joy that couldn't be containedThe angel told the women to go and tell the disciples the good newsThe women obeyed and went, ran, still afraid, but with joyJesus met them right where they wereTheir resurrected Lord tell them, "Don't be afraid"This must have been an incredible moment!This should still be an incredible moment for all of usHe sent them on a go and tell missionLike wise, Jesus sends us on a go and tell mission Closing: Jesus is alive!Jesus conquered the graveJesus broke the power of sinJesus defeated SatanJesus is the only One who can give true forgiveness, new life and hopeJesus commissions us to be on a show and tell missionOur world needs Jesus' hope especially with the health. family, financial, psychological, stresses we faceThe Resurrection of Jesus is the only solution for the pandemic of sinWill be let the Risen Christ into our hearts today?

Series: Kingdom PrinciplesThe Gospel Will PrevailMatthew 13:24-31; 36-43 recap of kingdom principles: 1. God uses small things to make big impacts.2. The humble are exalted.3. Obedience is blessed. In Matthew 13, Jesus tells eight parablesabout the kingdom of heaven. These parables were delivered against the backdrop of the growing oppositionto Jesus’ ministry from religious leaders. Sometimes people will rejectthe message; sometimes people will actively opposethe message. the parable of the wheat & the weeds The weeds probably refer to darnel, a ryegrass that looks similar to wheatuntil it is mature. the kingdom principle: The gospel will endure opposition.hard realities We have an enemy that actively works against us. Satan is a master at counterfeiting. It will not always feel like we are winning, and God is more patientthan we are. Sometimes our actions, even good-intentioned actions, can harm more than help. Some issues will not be resolved in our lifetime. the good newsThe enemy cannot separate usfrom the love of God. We can live for Christ in the midst of opposition because we know that we win. God will deal with injustice. God will have mercy on those who trust in Christ. Today’s takeawaysBe discerning--the evil one is always at work. Choose your battlescarefully. Not everything helps accomplish the mission. Do not let the presence of evil discourage you. God wins.

This week, we sit down with two special guests — Nick Johnston, Editor-in-chief from Axios, and Joshua Lowcock, Chief Digital & Innovation Officer / Global Brand Safety Officer of UM Worldwide — to talk about the current landscape of news consumption and where the future of news may be going. Social media has no doubt forever changed the way we keep up with the news, for better and, perhaps more so, for worse, yet social media platforms keep insisting on being just technology platforms and not media publishers. This leads to a sludge of inappropriate, problematic content proliferating online platforms, and that creates unsafe environment for brands to buy against. Therefore, how we navigate the future of news is a big part of building a healthy digital ad ecosystem for tomorrow.What We Covered: The major challenges facing the news industry todayThe differences between fake news, disinformation, and misinformationHuman-curated news vs. algorithm-driven news feedNew content formats and ways to consume newsThe promise of new business models that could help fix the issuesWe laugh about how terrible social media has become See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The story I've never told about how I know you can recover from being suicidal and go on to live a happy life. Plus food tips to get you started to beat depression.Hi everybody, I'm Barbara Fernandez, the Rocking Raw Chef, here with my Clean Food, Dirty Stories: one to entertain, the other to inspire.I help people stamp out stress, depression and fatigue over at RockingRawChef.com, and today's title is:From Suicidal To SensationalIn addition to this story, at the end of this episode I'll share with you the best ways to use food to beat depression and help get your emotional life back on track.OK enough hints from me, let's get on with the story. It's a big one.My inspiration for this storyA very short time ago – last week in fact – I learned that one of my favorite rock singers ever, Chester Bennington, committed suicide. And I was pretty shaken for days afterwards – not because I was close to him, because I wasn't. I never actually met him, although I was fortunate enough to see him live in concert about ten days before he died. Not because I didn't love his singing, because I did. But because I thought to myself, 'If Chester had known what I know, maybe he wouldn't have had to die'.So Chester this episode is dedicated to you. As well as to anyone who is experiencing the kind of debilitating sadness that can end in a life ended way too soon.So that's why I'm sharing with you a very personal story that I've never shared before. I want to tell you exactly why I can help people who feel they're broken. People who feel so unhappy, that suicide looks like the only way out. And I'm sharing this because if this even helps one person listening, then it will be worth it.This story is about depression, and about how you can absolutely one hundred percent overcome it. How you can kick it to the curb so that it never darkens your door again. Yes you can beat depression and I will tell you how to start.The first time I was depressedThe first time I was very depressed that I can remember, I was about eight years old. All I remember is that I was sitting on the bed in my parents' room, holding my dad's revolver on my lap and wondering if I could pull the trigger. I must have seen TV shows with people shooting each other or something. I mean I don't know how else I could have known at such a young age how to use a gun. My dad never showed us how to use it. And I don't even remember how I knew the gun was in there. He must have taken it out at one point, I don't know.There's a lot from my childhood that I don't remember because although on the whole it was a happy childhood with travel and lots of animals and all kinds of very good things, parts of it were not so good. One event in particular when I was about three years old was blocked from my memory until many years later – but that's another story.Anyway I was sitting with this gun on my lap and obviously I didn't pull the trigger. But I can remember that I wanted to. I really wanted to – but I thought I wasn't brave enough. It took me many years actually to realize that by deciding not to pull the trigger was the brave decision. It takes a lot more courage to face your fears and try to move past them than it does to obliterate everything with a gun shot, a jump off a roof or whatever.Playing dolls house with a child psychiatristAt some point my parents took me to a child psychiatrist, because my teachers at school were worried about me. They were worried for good reason because I was crying all the time. At least, that's what they told me. I don't actually remember that, fortunately, but it must have been true. I mean, why would they lie, right? So I went to this child psychiatrist and we basically played with a dolls house for an hour and he'd talk to my parents afterwards. I remember him asking me to tell him about the relationships in the family. He'd ask things like, “What does the dad do when he comes home?” and “What does the little girl think about her brother?” That kind of stuff.I don't really remember if it brought any benefit, I mean it was good to have someone to talk to. But I didn't feel any different afterwards. The doctors told my mom that I had a 'chemical imbalance in the brain' and that it was kind of tough luck, really, because nothing much could be done apart from perhaps drugs.Then I discovered theaterThings gradually got a little bit better at school, mostly because I discovered theater. I found out that when I was performing on stage, everyone wanted to be my friend afterwards. It didn't last long – only as long as the run of the show. But still it was a start. And I don't remember any other big incidents with guns or anything. Just an overall sadness which at the time I'd channel into writing journals, as I imagine many teenagers do. I wrote a book as well – two books actually, one for children about a magical world, and one about a girl who ran away from home. I never tried publishing them, but I did enjoy writing.My life got gradually better when I made some really good friends in high school. I went to college, got a theater degree, still with rocky highs and lows in terms of mood swings though. For a while I thought I was probably manic-depressive or something, because that's what it felt like. I'd have huge highs and huge lows.Fast forward a few years, and I found myself in Paris, France. If you've been listening to this podcast you'll have heard about several of my adventures those first few years there. More are coming, by the way, just to let you know!Anyway I was working as a singing waitress slash coat check girl in a very bizarre but fancy French restaurant. I'll share more about that in another story – but for now let me say that at this time, I was having a pretty good time. Life wasn't perfect but I did have fun. However I was about to take a deep dive into my lowest low ever.But then along came the guy...And it started, as these things often do, with a guy. A very attractive, magnetic guy who to this day still carries a torch for me, as the saying goes. If I'm to believe his family. Anyway one night my friend – I'll call her Mabel – invited me to her sister's house for dinner on Christmas Eve.Now you have to know that dinner on Christmas Eve in France is a big deal. It goes on for hours and the food is of course amazing. We sat down to eat at about one in the afternoon and we didn't get up till about eleven at night. The amazing thing was that because each course was very light and we had breaks in between, I actually didn't feel overstuffed. I felt quite good.What made me feel even better though was that as soon as I sat down to the table with Mabel and her family, I saw the most gorgeous guy looking right at me. I'll call him Jean. Our eyes met and that was it. It was like being hit by lightning, like the world stopped and there was no-one else there but he and I. I imagine the rest of the family was like 'oh boy, here we go'. It was very obvious to everyone that there were some major fireworks shooting across the table.A whirlwind relationshipSo of course we wound up getting together. I think he called me the next day or something, I can't remember. What I can remember is that we had a bit of an intense, whirlwind kind of relationship. I went to his house and basically never left. We were together all the time, we were massively attracted to each other, and our physical relationship was amazing.Mabel's family were really happy about this, because they already knew me, and Jean was the son of my friend's sister's husband, if that makes sense. So it was like I was going to be part of Mabel's family, which was very cool. They could all see that it was pretty serious. And everything happened really quickly. Everyone took it for granted that we'd marry, have kids and all of that. We were that magnetised.A week into the relationship I went with him to the south of France to meet his parents as well as his daughter (from a previous relationship) who was I think about 8 or 10 years old at the time. His parents loved me, his daughter really took to me straight away - and I to her. All the family were doubly happy because Jean was a bit of a wild guy and they felt that I was the perfect person to...I don't know, bring him a bit of stability, I guess.A powerful connectionSo for those few weeks we had an incredible relationship. I felt like I'd finally met the guy for me, and all of that. Four weeks went by that felt like four days, and though that might not sound like a long time, sometimes that's all you need. When you have a strong connection with someone, you just know, right? Have you ever felt upon meeting someone that you just have this very powerful link to them somehow? That's what this was like, with of course all the romantic stuff thrown in. And the power of a very intense physical attraction too.The beginning of the endBut Jean had a real cruel streak. I didn't know how cruel until one night, literally in the middle of making love, he says to me that it's over. What timing, right? Sadistic, I call it. Well I remember feeling like my insides had suddenly frozen solid. The first thing I said was, “Why?”His response devastated me. It wasn't because he didn't love me, because he said that he did. He said that he loved me deeply. It wasn't because his family didn't get along with me, because they adored me. He actually said, “Because I'm not a good person. I'm not good enough for you, and you deserve someone deeper than me who will be true to you and love you the way you deserve to be loved. I'm just not a good person and I'll only end up hurting you and you deserve better”.Well, I was devastated. He was basically breaking up with me because I was a good person. In his last relationship before me, he'd had affairs, and he was telling me that he couldn't be the good kind of man that I needed. It was because he loved me so much that he was breaking up with me.The suicide attemptI didn't know what to do – I cried, I pleaded, I told him I loved him, but he wouldn't change his mind. So I thought, 'I can't take this. This is just too much'. I went to the kitchen to get a knife, took it to the bathroom – this was the middle of the night – and I used it on both my wrists. It didn't hurt – I found out later that if you're in a bad enough state, you feel no pain. I can remember that it was harder to draw blood than I thought so I had to do it several times.And my intention was very clear. It wasn't to die, although I definitely wanted to die in that moment. My main thoughts were something like, 'This will get his attention, he'll see how I can't live without him. And everyone else will see how I really need help and I need it NOW. This will get them to take me seriously'. Now when I think of it I cringe, but at the time that's how I was feeling. I was desperate.He came running into the bathroom of course, probably totally freaked out, and he called Mabel who came and got me. I won't say all the details, but the short version is that I wound up in the hospital for two weeks, on antidepressants and seeing a psychiatrist daily and all that.That experience was something else, which I'll probably talk about in another episode.Is depression hereditary?I later found out that several family members of mine – I won't say who – had tried to kill themselves. One went up onto a rooftop and almost jumped, but fortunately they called someone who talked them out of it. The other, well I know they didn't die but that's all I know. And there were others who were severely depressed on and off for pretty much their whole lives, but again I don't know the details.All I do know is that I was told that depression is hereditary. You know, that it's in your genes so you can't help it. But you know what? I don't have it anymore even though it started when I was small, and although it was throughout my family since they were small, my kids are now teenagers and neither of them have it. Ha! It stops now, and it stops with me.What happened to JeanBut before I tell you how it stops with me, I want to briefly share what happened with Jean. He never came to see me in the hospital – well, no-one came, I think they weren't allowed – and when things got really bad for me I went to the states for a while.And wouldn't you know that Jean then wanted me back. I could literally feel him calling me from France. After a few months in the States, I did feel that I needed to go back to France and finish things up, tie up loose ends, as it were. And I did go back with Jean for a very short time, but by then so much had happened that I just couldn't make it work. I remember him picking me up from the airport and me thinking, 'Hmmm, this doesn't feel right anymore'. My trust had been broken, as you can well imagine.So I wound up leaving Jean, although I'm still in contact with Mabel. Which is how I know that even today Jean still carries a torch for me. I got under his skin and he's never forgotten me. To be fair, I haven't forgotten him either, though perhaps not quite for the same reasons. Even Jean's daughter, who only met me once as a child and is in her early twenties now, has reached out to me and wants to see me.I am going to try and see her, because none of this was her fault. Mabel told me that I was probably the first person who really saw her when she was a child, who really connected with her in a way that other people hadn't. So I do owe it to her to go and see her.Would you know this about me if you met me?Now the reason I'm sharing this story with you is because if you look at my website, or if you've met me in person, you would never know that I was once that depressed. I'm usually described as bubbly and bouncy and all of that. You'd know that I'm a rock singer, that I like to have fun, that I'm a bit zany and that I jump all over the place. You'd know that I like to laugh and see the crazy side of life. But you'd never know that I had once really wanted to die.When I was told by doctors all those years ago that I had a chemical imbalance in the brain and that there was no cure as such, I believed them. But I am living proof that you can overcome depression. You can beat depression.The question of course that you might be asking is how?Well, I tried a lot of different things but there was one thing that really worked consistently. Two things actually. But first what didn't work. Or to be more exact, the things that worked to an extent but that didn't quite eradicate depression in the way that I needed.Talking therapyFirst I tried 'talking therapy', as in traditional psychotherapy. That was awful, I really didn't like that. I had a friend who had been having that kind of therapy for years and she never changed. Now I'm not saying this can't work for some people because I believe it can. I'm sure there are some excellent psychotherapists out there. It's just that it didn't work for me, and I saw several people. It was great to have someone to talk to, but I felt like all of the soul-searching and navel-gazing wasn't really solving the problem for me.Again, that's just me and it might be perfect to help someone else. I'm just saying that it didn't provide me with a long-term solution. It didn't wipe out depression like my final solution did.Antidepressant drugsI also tried drugs. Those were awful, it felt like living in a ball of cotton. You didn't get as sad, that's true, but you didn't get as happy either. It was like you couldn't feel any extremes of emotion, everything was muffled. I really didn't like that, although when I was in such a bad state that I couldn't think clearly or function, yes in that instance it was helpful to be a bit numbed. So again, drugs are something that can help some people, but for me it was a short-term thing that didn't lead to any lasting change. They just kind of protected me from myself for a while and enabled me to function in a zombie-like kind of way.HypnotherapyI then tried hypnotherapy. That was interesting actually, because I discovered a very traumatic event that happened to me as a small child – which as I said earlier is another story. Hypnotherapy was very useful for uncovering hidden events so that I could understand some of the thoughts I'd had throughout my life. But once I'd discovered those events, it didn't help me deal with what I'd call the 'fallout'. We repress certain events for a reason, and I didn't get the help I needed to deal with what I now knew to be true.However this may have just been because of the practitioner that I saw. I do know that hypnotherapy can be very useful for some people, and there are some skilled practitioners out there. So again, I think it could be very beneficial with the right person, but it didn't really help me feel better. It just helped me uncover certain events that were responsible for me having such a poor body image as a child.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)I did some CBT, short for cognitive behavioral therapy. CBT is incredible actually and for me was the next best thing to my number one solution that I'll mention in a minute. What I liked about CBT was that it helped me uncover limiting beliefs that I had about myself. That was very useful. It didn't help with everything, but it definitely put me on the right track and I'm very grateful to the excellent practitioner that I had.Neurolinguistic programming (NLP)This was probably my number two solution. In a way even better than CBT because it really helped not only uncover limiting beliefs, but also smash those beliefs and replace them with better ones. I think for me, this in combination with the best solution which I'll mention below is the best way I know of effecting big changes in a short space of time.Compared to talking therapies, I found NLP to be a huge shortcut to personal development. So I do highly recommend it, but with a skilled practitioner of course. Somebody that you resonate with, that's very important. And it's even more powerful if you combine it with my number one best solution, which will come as no surprise to those of you who know me.The best solution: one I didn't know I hadThe best solution for me was one that I actually didn't even know I had. It came about when I got into making and eating a lot of raw food, which was about sixteen years ago now. Basically what happened was that one day, I think it was about ten years after I'd started exploring raw food, I woke up one morning and thought, 'hey I haven't been really sad in a very long time!' Like years and years. I mean, I still do get upset and frustrated like we all do sometimes. I may have the odd time of a bit of sadness, but it's normal and I can choose to stay in that state or move out of it. It's no longer the debilitating, can't-get-out-of-bed-all-day thing that I used to experience.And when I started researching the properties of food as I was writing blog articles, I made lots of discoveries. I discovered that raw food is actually amazing for changing...guess what? Your brain chemistry!All this time – before my raw food days – I'd been looking for solutions in therapies, in outside modalities...when the biggest help could have come simply from changing what was on my plate.Chemical substances and 'brain addiction'I also discovered that our emotions actually secrete chemical substances that go directly into the brain. I'm going to repeat that because it's important. Our emotions secrete chemical substances that go directly into the brain. And we get used to those substances as if they were addictive drugs.I'm really gonna simplify here, OK? Because I don't think using fancy words is going to help – I want to give you the principle behind what happens so that you can use it immediately. Especially if you know anyone who is depressed.So if you're in the habit of feeling sad, your brain gets addicted to those 'sad chemicals' that it receives on a daily basis. If you stop feeling sad, without the right support – be it nutritional or otherwise - you can experience a kind of withdrawal from those chemicals. And this can be a strong unconscious drive to experience more sadness so that your brain can get another hit of the chemicals it's used to! That is huge!The good newsThe good news is that the same goes for happiness, or other emotional states. That's why people say they get 'hooked' to adrenalin rushes. So you get people who are always looking for ways of getting another adrenalin rush, whether it's through going on scary rides, doing skydiving, bungee jumping etc. Their brain is used to that rush and it wants more!The other good news is that there are additional ways of changing your brain chemistry to a more positive one, for want of a better term. There are way too many to list here, but think of things like meditation, EFT (short for Emotional Freedom Technique, also called tapping) and other things.I'll talk more about these in future episodes. But for now, let me give you a few amazing food tips to get you started. And these by the way are good for everyone, depressed or not.How to start to beat depression with foodSo, I mentioned at the beginning of this episode that I'd share with you the best ways to start to beat depression. There are several tips here, and they all work together. Some of them are big ones, but if you or anyone you know is suffering, these can really make a difference.First tip: Scrap the junk foodJunk food messes with your brain chemistry like nothing else. You can't start to feel happier if you're ingesting e-numbers, additives, preservatives and other chemicals. Those substances are NOT meant to make you feel great. Some are preservatives and some are put in food to make you addicted to it so that you want to eat more and more of it.Junk food is meant to be thrown away. Not to be eaten. If you want to feel better, you can't be eating junk. Period.Second tip: Avoid processed foodsProcessed foods also contain a lot of chemicals, preservatives and other non-food substances which don't do your brain any favors. Make your food yourself, or buy it freshly made. Whether it's raw or cooked. If you really can't make your own food, food that's freshly made – even if it's in a restaurant – is better than frozen ready meals and that kind of stuff.Third tip: Avoid sugar, wheat and dairyThese foods are big ones for messing with your brain power. Not only do they mess with your brain, but they mess with your gut...which is your abdominal brain. Your gut is directly linked to your brain. Our gut produces dozens of neurotransmitters – aka the 'feel good' substances that we need to feel great. Things like serotonin, dopamine and other secretions are crucial to both mental and physical health. I've written more about serotonin and dopamine in the blog and I will link to that in the show notes. Last tip: Eat lots of brain foodPrioritize foods that you know are really ramping up your brain power. If you need to know what those are, I've written extensively about that on the blog, I will link to that as well. And you can also get yourself a handy pdf printout for your fridge from my website and I will link to that too.The last thing that I'll say about this is if you do change your eating habits to start to feel better, you can at first start to feel a bit tired, headachy, things like that. Those are signs of detox, those are signs that the bad stuff is being excreted from your body. It's leaving your body and you just need to drink more water. I'll also link to an article that I wrote about detox so that you can know what you might expect and what to do about it. The main thing is you've got to get that junk out and the good stuff in.There's loads more I could say on this topic and I will in future episodes. But for now though, the last thought I'd like to leave you with is this: If you know anyone who suffers from depression, please share this episode! Let them know that there are solutions! Depression isn't forever, it really isn't.And if you know anyone in desperate need of someone to talk to, I'll put links to hotlines as well.If you'd like some of the recipes that I myself used to beat depression, I'll post the link to my recipe ebooks in the show notes for this episode.

Football is back and we're FIRED UP! PodVader leads the roundtable of SuperFans featuring Neil (Redskins), James (Eagles) and Joe (Vikings). Before these guys get into the news from training campMatt Chatham (@chatham58 on Twitter, footballbyfootball.com) rejoins the program. Matt details life as a player in training camp. What do the players do all day besides practice? How long are the days? Pod brings the fan perspective on how training camp has become a fan event now too - with just as many fans at practice as will fill the new LA Chargers of San Diego stadium this year. Speaking of training camp, the Baltimore Ravens haven't had a good start. The injury bug has already hit Joe Flacco, Kenneth Dixon, Dennis Pitta and Tavon Young. And if that wasn't enough, OL John Urschel retired at age 26. The rumors connecting Colin Kaepernick to this team leads to a deep conversation about why Kaep is still unemployed. Other news the guys dive into: the Ballad of a Man Named Lucky (Whitehead); Ronnie Hillman signing with the Cowboys and concerns about a Zeke suspension; Le'veon Bell's hold out; Cardale Jones traded to the Chargers; Teddy Bridgewater starts on the PUP; Redskins camp news; Eagles camp news; Patriot camp newsThe guys wrap up the show with a touching email from Sean.

Today's EpisodeDoing business today can be a complicated mess. That's not to say it has never been complicated. However, businesses have to be careful about what they say, do, think, feel and place. Even employees have to watch everything they do. Snapchat came under fire today for their “blackface.” Now maybe, it was not the best idea, but if it was in partnership with the Bob Marley Estate, then, who is to blame? This is the problem businesses face. As a marketing professional ideas are going to have to be thought about. You are going to have to tear them apart and reassemble them. Find out if there is an “outrage” in your idea. I will say, that you cannot make everyone happy. That does not mean you should not just throw up your hands and do whatever ideas comes from your head. However, businesses should take risks, but, they should be calculated. Be sure you are equipped to handle the outrage. If you need to, update your crisis communication plan. As the boy scouts always say, “be prepared.” Now, onto the show!Marketing News Discussed:Storyful crowdsource video for journalistFacebook is looking to get you paid in your postsYou can play podcasts in Google searchGoogle bets on AMP in their newsThe changing face of searchSnapChat is not feeling the love todayWhy business needs to risk but be aware of the backlashApps/Programs to try:ShowboxShazam for BrandsScreenSquidGoalMapQuestion:Is this Bob Marley filter that bad?

This week, we catch up with Bob (formerly known as "the new shooter"). We first talked to Bob back on Episode 30 after he'd just shot his first match, caught up with him six months later on Episode 54 to talk about progressing as a competitor. Most recently, we brought him in to help us with Episode 100, our PPQ vs VP9 shootout. Today, he's back to talk about shooting competition even if you don't practice all the time like Ben and Luke. He has some thoughts about fitting competition in to life with family and other time commitments. He also talks level of participation, current level of skill, and how to enjoy shoot matches even if you're not planning to try and make Master class. The NewsThe main news story this week is Oklahoma passing a bill to allow authorized staff in K-12 schools to carry concealed at school. It still requires extra training and may not be adopted by all schools or school districts, but it's an excellent move forward for good guys with guns to stop bad guys with guns, especially protecting our children. Tip of the WeekDon't forget to take yourself in to account in your evaluation of gear. Sometimes, especially for older shooters, it's important to make sure your gun, holster, sights, trigger, grip, and everything else still work for you over time. Whether you're getting smarter by learning better techniques or older with achy joints, it's always worth it to pull the carry gun out and dry fire every once in a while.
