Today’s Bible Verse: “The Lord had said to Abram, ‘Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.’” — Genesis 12:1 Genesis 12:1 marks the beginning of one of the most significant faith journeys in Scripture. God calls Abram to leave behind everything familiar—his home, his people, and his plans—and follow Him into an unknown future. There are few details, no map, and no clear timeline. There is only a promise and an invitation to trust. Want to listen without ads?

This is part two of my conversation with author and researcher Norman Sollie, and this is where the rubber meets the road. In our first episode together on Friday, Norman walked us through more than four decades of his own personal encounters with Sasquatch across Washington, Illinois, Massachusetts, Colorado, and Alaska. If you missed it, go back and listen to that one first. You're going to want the foundation. In part two, we leave Norman's personal experiences behind and we dig into the work he's spent the last several years building. His brand-new book, Before Patty, Volume One: Patrick, the Sasquatch-Human Hybrid and Our Genetic Inheritance, lays out a case unlike anything I've seen in this field in close to forty years of paying attention.Norman walks me through the chain that brought him to the story in the first place, starting with a self-published Russian hominology book he picked up at the twenty nineteen International Bigfoot Conference in Kennewick, Washington, that pointed him toward an obscure American anthropologist named Dr. Ed Fusch and a nineteen ninety-two paper most of the Bigfoot community had never heard of.He walks me through how genealogist Heather Moser of Small Town Monsters cracked the trail open in forty-eight hours, and how Norman then spent the next two years personally tracking Patrick across the entire historical record, eventually surfacing a hundred and sixty documents that all point to the same man.The case Norman lays out is built on hard evidence. Birth records placing Patrick's birth in June of eighteen ninety-two, three months earlier than the family officially declared, with the strong implication that his mother was moved off-reservation to Chelan, Washington, to give birth in privacy.A land patent on a hundred and four acres of Colville Reservation ranch land, signed by President Woodrow Wilson in nineteen seventeen. Court filings and arrest records from Patrick's later years documenting his slide into Prohibition-era bootlegging and alcoholism. Mugshots from the front and the side that show a man whose anatomy does not fit a clean Homo sapiens profile. And a careful ink signature in Patrick's own hand, consistent across roughly twenty-five years of documents, that now sits on the cover of Norman's book.Norman gets into the comparative anatomy in detail. The steeply sloped forehead without compensating brow ridges. The brain case that extends back behind the ears in a way no typical Homo sapiens skull extends. The ears themselves, sitting noticeably below the line between the pupils and rotated backward by roughly twenty-two degrees. The completely missing chin, the absence of the bony mentum projection, a feature that lines up cleanly with what we know about Neanderthal jaw structure.The short compressed neck that mirrors Neanderthal cervical vertebrae. Norman ran comparative tracings against a Colville Indian contemporary and an Alaskan Native control, scaled to the same dimensions, and Patrick falls outside the human range on virtually every measurement that matters.We get into the strangeness of Patrick the man. The farmhand Louie, who worked for him through the late nineteen twenties, described him as a quiet gentle boss who was nearly impossible to play cards against because he always knew what everybody else was holding. We get into his eight children, including the three surviving daughters Mary Louise, Madeline, and Stella, and the inheritance that shows up in their faces and bodies in varying degrees.We get into Patrick's slow decline through the nineteen twenties and thirties, the loss of the ranch, the bootlegging arrests, the hops-picking years, and the death in a Seattle morning in nineteen sixty-two on the same day Norman himself first arrived in the United States as a small child.And we get to the bottom line. Norman makes the case, plainly, that Patrick was real. That his father was not a human father. That the abduction described in the Sinixt family memory was a real event, with a real consequence, and that the consequence walked the earth for seventy years and left a paper trail any researcher with the time and the patience can now verify.Norman's view, which I share, is that if Patrick is real, then at least some of what we are seeing out there in the woods is biologically close enough to us to interbreed and produce viable offspring.The implications of that are not small.You can pick up Norman's book at beforepatty.com, or through Amazon in paperback, hardcover, and Kindle. Better yet, ask for it through your local independent bookseller or Barnes and Noble. Norman has volume two on the way, making the broader evolutionary case for Sasquatch, with volume three to follow on what he calls the weird stuff.

In 2018, researchers at MIT unveiled an artificial intelligence so disturbing it earned a name straight out of a psychological thriller: Norman (as in Bates). Unlike typical AIs, Norman was exposed to some of the darkest corners of the internet, causing it to see horror in the mundane. Though designed as an experiment, Norman became a cautionary tale about how artificial minds can mirror humanity's most disturbing tendencies.

In this episode, Brian sits down with author and researcher Norman Solie for the first half of their conversation, focused entirely on the encounters and experiences that pulled Norman into the world of Sasquatch research.Norman traces his fascination back to childhood, when he first saw the Patterson-Gimlin film while growing up in Washington. That early impression stayed with him, but it was a solo backpacking trip in 1980 to a remote lake in the Cascade Mountains that would leave him with questions he could not easily dismiss.During that trip, Norman heard a chilling wail in the night, discovered a large muddy footprint near his tent, and was overcome by an urgent, unexplainable feeling that he needed to leave immediately. As he made his way out, the sound of breaking branches behind him only deepened the mystery.After stepping away from the subject in the mid-1980s, Norman's interest was reignited years later during a 2006 retreat in Illinois, where he witnessed a small, black, fuzzy-edged figure watching people from a distance.What first seemed strange and difficult to explain would later lead him to consider the possibility that he had seen a juvenile Sasquatch.Norman also shares a series of unusual experiences from Alaska and Massachusetts, including the feeling of being watched, possible structures, tracks, scat, tree breaks, strange vocalizations, possible eye shine, and unexplained knocks both near his home and along trails around his remote cabin. This is Part 1 of Brian's conversation with Norman Solie, centered on Norman's personal encounters and field experiences. Part 2 airs this Sunday and will focus on Norman's book, Before Patty Volume One: Patrick The Sasquatch/Human Hybrid & Our Genetic Inheritance.

In this first collaboration with Patrick Young of the Forgotten Christianity Substack, we looked at the Norman invasion of Anglo-Saxon England through a religious lens, asking how 1066 transformed not just a kingdom, but the English Church itself. Steve Guerra and Patrick Young explored papal power, the growing divide between East and West, and the older Christian world the Normans helped uproot. #HistoryOfThePapacy #ForgottenChristianity #ChurchHistory #NormanConquest #1066 #AngloSaxonEngland #MedievalHistory #ChristianHistory Subscribe to Forgotten Christianity on Substack: https://forgottenchristianity.substack.com/ Support the show: Patreon: http://patreon.com/historyofthepapacyBuy me a coffee! https://buymeacoffee.com/historyofthepapacyBuy me a book: http://bit.ly/40ckJ8Ehttps://www.youtube.com/@thehistoryofthepapacyHave questions, comments or feedback?

Chris Paul and Burning Bright tackle David Ayer's 2014 World War II film Fury, starring Brad Pitt, Shia LaBeouf, Logan Lerman, Jon Bernthal, and Michael Pena. Burning Bright picked it as a Memorial Day rewatch and argues it is one of the most underrated war films of the modern era, deserving way more credit than Saving Private Ryan style lionization tends to allow. The guys dig into the five very different spiritual approaches of the tank crew, the dehumanization of war daddy, bible, gordo, kunas, and the painfully innocent Norman, and why the infamous early execution scene is not the glorification it gets accused of being. They unpack the central biblical passage from First John chapter two, do not love the world or anything in the world, as the real moral spine of the film and the heart of all discernment. From there they go big picture, hitting Jevons paradox and how better military tech just means more efficient mass sacrifice, why World War II had the cleanest cartoon story of any modern war, the controlled opposition Nazi op being run on MAGA right now, narrative shielding through Donald Trump's hyper Zionist posture, and the fiery tank as a birth canal delivering Norman into a second chance.

In this episode of *Pediatric Perspectives*, I'm joined by integrative pediatrician Michelle Perro, M.D. — a clinician with 43 years of experience, an environmental medicine specialist, and the CEO and founder of [GMO Science](https://gmoscience.org). Dr. Perro has spent decades studying how food, pesticides, and environmental toxicants affect children's health, and in this conversation she brings that perspective directly to bear on one of the most pressing issues in pediatrics today: childhood obesity and the growing push to treat it with GLP-1 agonist drugs.

Built as a royal chapel in the 12th century CE by King Roger II, the Norman ruler of Sicily, the Palatine Chapel is a beautiful manifestation of the influences of Byzantine, Norman, and Islamic art and architecture. The chapel is home to one of Italy's most important examples Byzantine mosaic decoration and an almost unique example of a non-Islamic muqarnas ceiling.  

The United Kingdom has a new Queen Consort, Camilla. She is the first Queen of England to have been born a commoner since Catherine Parr (1547). Since the Norman conquest in 1066, English and British Royals have almost exclusively married other royals, usually as part of treaties with powerful neighboring nations. Of the 42 royal consorts, 13 have been French, 8 German, 5 Spanish, 4 Danish, 1 Dutch, 1 Italian, 1 Portuguese and 1 Scottish. But on a few, rare occasions an English monarch put his heart (or his lust) before his head and chose instead to make an English woman his Queen. There have been 9 English Queens of England, one was a member of a rival branch of the English royal family. 2 were from noble families and 6 were commoners...

Today’s Bible Verse “Thomas said to him, ‘Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?’ Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’” — John 14:5–6 (NIV) Overview John 14:5–6 captures one of the most foundational statements Jesus ever made. In a moment filled with uncertainty and questions, Thomas asks honestly what many people still wonder today: How do we know the way? Jesus responds not with a map or a list of rules, but with Himself. Want to listen without ads?

Steven Dominguez was a correction officer at Rikers Island. Norman Seabrook ran the correction officers' union. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, they sit down face to face for a rare and uncomfortable conversation — one that holds a corrupt guard accountable in front of the man who was supposed to represent him. They debate corruption, power, and the reality of working inside one of America's most controversial jail systems — challenging each other on what's truth and what's misunderstood, and asking whether meaningful reform at Rikers Island is even possible today. _____________________________________________ #RikersIsland #PrisonCorruption #TrueCrime _____________________________________________ Watch my interview wirh Steven Dominguez: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EvupiKuyuw&t=166s _____________________________________________ Watch my interview with Norman Seabrook: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5Q7tofDnJ8&t=1s _____________________________________________ Connect with Steven Dominguez: https://www.instagram.com/chillstevie/ _____________________________________________ Connect with Norman Seabrook: https://www.instagram.com/normseabrook/ _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Corrupt Rikers Guard vs Honest Union Boss — The Full Story 01:53 The Corruption and Dysfunction Inside Rikers Island Nobody Talks About 04:42 How the System Capitalism and Jail Jobs Create Corrupt Officers 07:02 Why So Many Young Inexperienced Officers End Up Corrupt at Rikers 10:30 Personal Stories and the Family Ties That Pull People Into Jail Work 13:04 The Reality of Corruption at Rikers — What Becomes Normal and Why 16:17 Temptation Greed and the Moment Officers Choose to Cross the Line 18:42 How Leadership Addiction and Culture Among Officers Enables Corruption 22:17 Who Is Really Responsible When Officers Go Bad 24:18 Real Corruption Stories and the Consequences Nobody Prepares You For 27:40 The Mental Health Crisis Inside Rikers and How It Feeds the Cycle 33:40 Second Chances and What Redemption Really Looks Like After Corruption 36:20 The Lessons Learned and How Community Influence Shapes Everything 38:16 The Broken Infrastructure and Safety Crisis Nobody Wants to Address 40:54 The Leadership Decisions That Could Actually Fix Rikers Island 44:00 Closing Rikers Island — The Real Solutions and Real Consequences 46:25 What a Warden Would Actually Do Differently — Reform From the Inside 50:26 How Hip Hop Culture and Society Shape What Happens Inside Rikers 53:36 Communication Humanity and What It Really Takes to Break the Cycle 58:06 Why Supervisor Support Is the Single Most Important Factor at Rikers 01:03:11 Final Thoughts — What Both Men Want You to Know About Rikers Island _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.

DESCRIPTION South Carolina gubernatorial candidate Ram Ready joins the show to directly respond to accusations made earlier this week by guest host Adam Morgan. Ready denies claims he's a political “plant,” blasts longtime Republican insiders, calls out alleged anti-Trump figures in the GOP, and lays out his outsider campaign message focused on taxes, spending, and government reform. The interview turns fiery as Ready defends his conservative credentials and positions himself as the businessman ready to shake up Columbia politics. PODCAST SUMMARY Republican gubernatorial candidate Ram Ready appeared on The Tara Show to push back against accusations made earlier in the week that he was acting as a political “plant” for South Carolina House Speaker Murrell Smith. Ready strongly denied the allegation, arguing it makes no logical sense for him to self-fund his campaign while allegedly working on behalf of another political figure. Throughout the interview, he criticized longtime Republican officeholders, accused Congressman Ralph Norman of previously backing Nikki Haley over Donald Trump, and framed himself as a true outsider candidate fighting establishment politics in Columbia. The conversation also touched on South Carolina's rising government spending, taxes, infrastructure, and education performance. Ready defended his past donations to Governor Henry McMaster while explaining that he supports Republican candidates over Democrats in general elections, even when he disagrees with their records.

Dublin is famous for its Georgian squares, medieval cathedral, castle and revolutionary history. But the cornerstone of Dublin's history is undoubtedly the port.Nearly 1,200 years ago, the Vikings established a settlement on the banks of the Liffey, and from that moment, Dublin's fate was tied to the sea. The port became the gateway where Ireland met the wider world. Ships carried goods, armies, ideas and people in and out of the city, connecting Dublin to Britain, Scandinavia, the Mediterranean and the far reaches of empire.But Dublin Port's history is far more than commerce. It witnessed slavery and trade, military occupation and revolution, famine and emigration, labour struggles and war. It was also shaped by a centuries-long battle against nature itself. Sandbanks, silting and storms forced generations of engineers to reshape the coastline with quays, docks, lighthouses and massive sea walls, creating one of Ireland's most remarkable engineering achievements.In this episode, recorded on the Great South Wall, I speak with historian Lar Joye, Heritage Director at Dublin Port, to explore the extraordinary 1,200-year history of Dublin Port. From Viking traders and Norman conquerors to famine emigrants and dock workers this is the story of a place that has witnessed every major turning point in Irish history.Sound by Kate Dunlea.My guest Lar Joye has served as Port Heritage Director at Dublin Port since 2017, where he cares for the 300-year-old Port Archive and leads projects that reconnect the working port with the city through heritage, culture and public access. Before joining Dublin Port, he worked as a film archivist and as Curator of Irish Military History at the National Museum of Ireland, where he led the team behind the award-winning "Soldiers and Chiefs" exhibition on the Irish soldier at home and abroad from 1550 to the present.He is a well-known lecturer and media contributor on topics ranging from the history of Dublin Port and its dockers to Irish soldiers in the British Army and the First World War, and he played a significant role in the Decade of Commemorations between 2012 and 2018. At Dublin Port he has initiated projects such as the Dublin Port Memory and Story oral history project and the development of new walking routes and cultural spaces, illustrating how archives, place and community stories can be brought together for contemporary audiences.Programme of Events for 2026 Events - Dublin PortBus tours of the port: Behind the Scenes Tours are Open - Dublin PortDistributed Museum - Dublin Port Hosted on Acast.

Born to a noble Norman family in the 12th century, Santa Rosalia became Palermo's most important patron saint when she miraculously saved the city from a devastating plague in 1624. Still today, she is venerated and celebrated by both the people of Palermo as well as Sicilians throughout the world.

Dr. Adam Dorsay introduces SuperPsyched and interviews leadership consultant Minette Norman about psychological safety and her co-authored book, The Psychological Safety Playbook for Changemakers. Norman defines psychological safety as the belief that in a group you can ask questions, make mistakes, and voice differing views without embarrassment, exclusion, or repercussions, and contrasts it with environments where people agree publicly but dissent privately. They discuss high-stakes consequences of low psychological safety (healthcare errors, the Challenger disaster), organizational costs (reduced innovation and performance, increased burnout and disengagement, reputation management and groupthink), and links to inclusion and hearing from introverts and neurodivergent thinkers. Norman shares practical leadership actions such as redesigning meetings, inviting dissent, asking “What am I missing?”, admitting mistakes, using blameless learning after failures, and sustaining safety through mutual respect; she highlights “the power of the pause” to respond thoughtfully when triggered.00:00 Welcome to SuperPsyched00:27 Why Safety Matters03:15 Defining Psychological Safety05:00 Real World Stakes06:47 How the Book Happened11:37 What It Is Not15:19 The Hidden Costs21:35 Reputation and Inner Circles23:34 Building It Day by Day30:57 Inclusive Meetings for All36:51 Top Practices to Try39:30 The Power of the Pause43:07 Final TakeawaysHelpful Links:Minette NormanMinette Norman LinkedInMinette Norman InstagramThe Psychological Safety Playbook for Changemakers Book

Minette Norman is an award-winning author, speaker, and leadership consultant who previously spent decades leading global technical teams in the Silicon Valley software industry and realized that we needed a new, more human model of leadership. Mike Petrusky asks Minette about her new book, "The Psychological Safety Playbook for Changemakers: Transform Your Workplace Culture" and what motivated she and he co-author, Dr. Karolin Helbig, to write it. They explore how innovation thrives in a team environment where psychological safety allows open, respectful debate and diverse ideas to flourish. Minette says that anyone can be a changemaker and encourages us all to positively influence workplace culture through small, deliberate actions that create ripple effects. Successful change management prioritizes the human side of change by listening to concerns, anticipating impact, and fostering inclusion to reduce resistance, so the book offers practical strategies for addressing skepticism. Curiosity and open-minded listening are essential leadership qualities, so Mike and Minette offer the encouragement and inspiration you need to be a Workplace Innovator in your organization!

Today we are talking about something that often gets overlooked in business conversations, yet affects everything! The quality of relationships.My guest, Norman Wolfe, challenges the traditional view of organizations as machines and introduces a more human-centered way of thinking. We talk about why even the best strategies can fail, what really motivates people at work, and how leaders can shift from creating compliant teams to building truly committed ones.This conversation is a powerful reminder that results don't just come from systems and processes. They come from people who feel seen, heard, and valued.Key TakeawaysPeople don't resist work. They respond to how safe and successful they feel in their environment. Many workplaces unintentionally train compliance instead of ownership and critical thinking. Leaders often care, but lack the skills to express that care effectively under pressure. Commitment comes from relationship depth, not just agreement in meetings. Great leadership means hearing both the words and the “music” behind them.You can find Norman at: https://quantumleaders.com/ and on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/wolfe/In appreciation for being here, I have some gifts for you:A LinkedIn Checklist for setting up your fully optimized Profile:An opportunity to test drive the Follow Up system I recommend by checking this presentation page - you won't regret it.

Today’s Bible Verse: “Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs were being done by the apostles.” — Acts 2:43 Acts 2:43 gives us a glimpse into the powerful spiritual atmosphere of the early church after Pentecost. As believers gathered in unity, devotion, prayer, and generosity, God moved among them in undeniable ways. Awe filled the community as miracles, signs, and wonders pointed people toward the power and presence of Jesus Christ. Want to listen without ads?

In this episode of *Pediatric Perspectives*, I'm joined again by Suzanne Humphries, M.D. — board-certified internist and nephrologist, co-author of *[Dissolving Illusions: Disease, Vaccines, and the Forgotten History](https://www.dissolvingillusions.com/)*, and one of the most thorough medical researchers I know. Following her widely viewed appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience, Dr. Humphries has spent months responding to detailed public critiques of that interview — and in this conversation, we focus on what she has always emphasized most: how to actually support health, especially in children.

Originally built in the 12th century, Palermo Cathedral was continually modified for the next six centuries. While much of its original and rather exotic Norman architecture survives on the exterior, the interior is entirely Neoclassical in design. Palermo Cathedral is home to the tomb of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and the remains Palermo's patron saint, Santa Rosalia. 

The capture of American nurses in the Philippines is often described as an “untold story” of WWII; Dr. Elizabeth Norman set out to change that. She conducted extensive interviews with 20 of the 77 nurses who were captured. Norman collected the nurses' firsthand accounts, and pored over their diaries and letters, weaving these sources together in her book, We Band of Angels: The Untold Story of the American Women Trapped on Bataan. Norman joins Cassie to delve into what it was like to care for patients while trapped in an internment camp for three years. https://www.amazon.com/We-Band-Angels-American-Trapped/dp/0812984846See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today’s Bible Verse: “When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, ‘Brothers, what shall we do? Peter replied, ‘Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.’" — Acts 2:37-38 Acts 2:37 captures the moment the gospel truly landed in people’s hearts. After hearing Peter preach about Jesus, the crowd wasn’t merely informed—they were deeply convicted. The message pierced through distraction, pride, and routine, leading them to ask a life-changing question: “What shall we do?” This passage reminds us that the gospel is meant to move us, not just educate us. Sometimes we become so familiar with the story of Jesus that we stop feeling its weight and wonder. But when we hear it again with open hearts, it has the power to awaken conviction, repentance, and renewed faith. Have an idea for our newsletter? We want to hear from you!
