GET MORE AT LVWITHLOVE.COM Anja Keister is bringing burlesque back to Northampton. After D20 Burlesque's Valentine's show sold out the Roxy earlier this year, the hometown performer and producer returns with D20 Burlesque's Spooky Spectacular on Sunday, October 4. Anja joins George Wacker again to talk about how that first Roxy show went and what surprised her about the crowd. People just old enough to attend showed up alongside older couples, longtime friends and guests in their eighties. She calls burlesque “an art form for the masses,” and seeing that range of people in her hometown made the return especially meaningful. The Halloween show builds on what audiences enjoyed in February: burlesque alongside dance, pole performances and flow arts. Chicago performer Red Rum headlines, with Anja hosting and performing. The lineup also includes Caresse Deville, Rosa Darling, Miss Shuggenah, Pixie Styx, Sarah “Chillidawg” DeRemer, Jade Retrograde and Taylor Sweet. Anja also talks about the handmade work behind burlesque, from costumes and choreography to producing a show. She and George discuss why horror and burlesque fit together so well: both know how to build anticipation and give an audience a memorable payoff. D20 Burlesque's Spooky Spectacular: Sunday, October 4, 2026, at the Roxy Theater, 2004 Main St., Northampton, PA. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the show begins at 7 p.m. This is an 18+ event, and IDs will be checked.

We have a bumper pod for you ahead of the new season, as Chris and Ashy chat to some of the biggest stars in the Prem. First up is England fly-half Fin Smith, who tells us he wants Northampton to become one of the greatest teams in Premiership history. But just how many more titles would they need to achieve that? And is Henry Pollock really worth a million pounds? Ashy gives his thoughts and shares an interesting take on the Pollock contract saga. Finn Baxter tells us what it's like to watch a game of rugby with the Princess of Wales, Jack van Poortvliet discusses his England contract and holidaying in Rio, while Dafydd Jenkins talks to us about mauling up sand dunes on the beach in Devon. Louis Rees-Zammit speaks openly about his struggles last season after returning to the sport. Plus, we discuss his love of kicking and whether he's going to become a long-distance kicker like Elliot Daly. We also hear about Ashy meeting the Queen, an awkward case of mistaken identity involving Dylan Hartley and Sir Jackie Stewart, and the most brutal pre-season fitness sessions.

Welcome to another episode of the podcast, where today we dive deep into Jonathan Edwards's foundational revival trilogy to explore how one of history's greatest pastor-theologians navigated the thrilling yet treacherous waters of spiritual awakening. From the remarkable local conversions in Northampton to his razor-sharp diagnostic tests for genuine revival, Edwards offers an unequaled masterclass in discerning the work of the Holy Spirit. Together, we'll examine his searching warnings on undiscerned spiritual pride, the deceptive snare of modern "immediate revelations," and the subtle ways Satan exploits even our most elevated spiritual frames. Whether you are seeking a biblical blueprint for testing spiritual claims or a humbling guide for pastoral discernment, Edwards's timeless insights remain a vital manual for the Church today.

The Supreme Court just took a case about assault weapon bans, and the whole fight turns on four words from Heller: dangerous and unusual. Attorney Alan Beck, who won Wolford at the Supreme Court, wrote an amicus brief arguing that courts have had those words backwards for years. Unusual never meant rare. It meant carrying a weapon in a way meant to terrify people, and the distinction goes back to English common law in 1328. Also this week: a retired Navy SEAL says 18 year olds cannot be trusted with a firearm off duty, and we take that apart. Anti gun groups demanded better data on defensive gun use and got a number more than twice what they expected. A school board candidate in South San Diego County gets attacked for our endorsement, and her reason for carrying is one nobody bothered to ask about. Plus the Dixie Chicks, and a straight answer on which home defense shotgun to buy.

GET MORE AT LVWITHLOVE.COM Nathan Szydlow, creator of LV Crime Map, joins the Lehigh Valley with Love Podcast to explain how he built a live incident map for police, fire and EMS dispatches across Lehigh and Northampton counties. Szydlow has been programming since he was 12 and wanted to combine his software-development background with his interest in the Lehigh Valley. The idea for LV Crime Map began while he and his girlfriend were looking for an apartment and grew after he started seeing ambulances responding to incidents around their development. LV Crime Map follows publicly available scanner feeds and uses AI to convert dispatch audio into text, identify locations and place incidents on an interactive map. The conversation covers how the technology works, how the automated map differs from local breaking-news pages and why AI-generated information can sometimes be incomplete or inaccurate. LV Crime Map is an independent informational resource. It is not affiliated with law enforcement and is not an emergency notification system. Always call 911 during an emergency.

Why did God ask Israel to stack up twelve ordinary stones the moment they crossed the Jordan on dry ground? In this episode of Blueprint for Revival, Mike Plunket looks at Joshua 4 and a truth Scripture keeps circling back to: we forget. Give it one generation and the miraculous becomes a memory. Give it three, and it's gone.Mike traces how this forgetfulness is really a symptom of something deeper — a heart that's drifted from its center in God — and how even our Bible reading can quietly become self-focused instead of an encounter with who God actually is. He points to the Northampton revival of 1735 and Martyn Lloyd-Jones's later warning that fear, control, and a discomfort with anything "messy" can talk us out of ever experiencing the Spirit's work at all.Mike closes with a personal story from 2009 — a near-fatal bout of malaria in Uganda that became one of his own "twelve stones" — and a challenge: what is your Jordan, the place where God already parted the waters, that you've quietly let yourself forget?Blueprint for Revival is a weekly teaching series from Metro District, Christian and Missionary Alliance.Metro District Podcast is the voice of the Metro District, Christian and Missionary Alliance — resourcing and connecting churches across NY, NJ, and PA.This episode is part of Blueprint for Revival, a weekly teaching series with Mike Plunket.

To the outside world, Phillip Austin was a quiet, unassuming forklift driver living a perfectly ordinary life in Northampton, England. But in July 2000, a minor argument over booking a family holiday triggered a wave of horrific violence that shattered that illusion forever. Within hours, Austin committed a brutal family annihilation—murdering his wife Claire, their two young children Keiren and Jade, and even the family's two pet dogs.
