Australia aims to match England's power but faces risks from older, injury-prone players, including captain Pat Cummins.

What if Judas wasn't just a betrayer, but the first to politicize Jesus? Judas's story exposes a much older problem: the temptation to make Jesus “fit” the system. Domenic Scarcella (author of the book and Substack Good Neighbor, Bad Citizen) returns to argue that Judas tried to make the Messiah more respectable to rulers, trading costly faithfulness for public influence. From the temple clashes of Holy Week to today's culture wars, they trace how disciples drift when we ask Jesus to fit the system instead of following Him out of it.  Domenic explains why anti-Christ means impostor (not merely opponent) and how post-Constantine Christianity flipped from persecution to privilege, and why coercion never appears in Jesus' toolkit for discipling nations. From Caesar to modern politics Domenic and Craig trace how compromise creeps in when disciples trade the cross for influence,and faithfulness for respectability.  Constantine's empire did to the Church's soul, and how grace keeps the Gospel alive even when the Church gets it wrong. “Judas didn't hate Jesus…he just wanted Him to be more compatible with the government.” If you've ever wondered what it means to follow Jesus in a world addicted to power, this conversation will challenge and comfort you. The Kingdom of God still runs on love, not control.  We cover: Judas was the “normal” disciple, and that's what makes him dangerous The difference between Antichrist and Contra Christ (imposter vs. opponent) Why Jesus never used coercion or political force How Constantine flipped Christianity from persecution to privilege Hope for the remnant: good neighbors, bad citizens under “No King but Christ”  

The Rise of Extremist Politics in the US and UK. Joseph Sternberg analyzes the rise of extreme political figures like New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, warning conservatives that opponents' political mistakes do not guarantee their success, citing the UK's Jeremy Corbyn as a parallel. He notes that frustrated voters seek "sledgehammers" on both the left and right. In the UK, he details how Chancellor Rachel Reeves and the Labour government are suffering plummeting approval due to economic mismanagement, forcing tax hikes and breaking promises, benefiting Nigel Farage's Reform UK party. 1940 BLITZ

(The Center Square) – Illinois lawmakers have passed wide-ranging energy legislation, but opponents say it will lead to higher electricity bills. Senate Bill 25, also known as The Clean and Reliable Grid Affordability Act (CRGA), passed the state Senate by a vote of 37-22 Thursday night after the House advanced it Wednesday. Sen. Steve Stadelman, D-Rockford, said a new line item would be added to Illinois consumers' electric bills in 2030. “That line item will be immediately offset, because that's the same date that the battery storage providers will start providing extra capacity, providing power to the grid,” Stadelman said.

Today, we revisit a lively conversation with members of Ozark United FC's youth program as they reflect on their recent tournament experiences. The players share what stood out most to them: the pace and physicality of the competition, the importance of communication on the field, and how small details—like warm-up routines and game-day habits—mirror what they've learned under their own coaches.As they discuss what it takes to play at a higher level, listeners get an inside look at how young athletes absorb lessons about teamwork, preparation, and growth. The players talk openly about the challenges of facing bigger, faster opponents and how those moments drive them to improve both technically and mentally. Their reflections remind us that development in soccer is as much about mindset as it is about skill.This Stoppage Time Segment captures the spirit of Pitch to Pro: passion, curiosity, and a love of the game that connects every level of play.

Top Stories for October 28th Publish Date: October 28th From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, October 28th and Happy Birthday to Julia Roberts I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. SPARC, Motel to Home help homeless single-parent families get back into housing E-SPLOST headlines countywide ballot — but faces challenges Gwinnett police chief pushes back in Peachtree Corners debate All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: KIA Mall Of Georgia STORY 1: SPARC, Motel to Home help homeless single-parent families get back into housing Life hit Faith Busano like a freight train. “The day we moved into our last apartment, I lost my job,” she said. Originally from California, Faith, 32, had bounced from Michigan to Georgia, trying to find stability for herself and her two daughters, 3-year-old Love and 13-year-old Harmoni. But things kept falling apart. Family couldn’t help. The apartment didn’t work out. And when the job disappeared, so did their home. They ended up in an extended-stay motel—what was supposed to be a temporary fix. But weeks turned into months, and the motel became a trap. Her toddler’s energy was endless, her teen was struggling with mental health, and Faith herself was barely holding on. She worked customer service, drove for DoorDash, styled hair—anything to scrape by. But the grind was relentless. Then, one day, a flier changed everything. The motel was handing out groceries, and someone slipped her information about SPARC’s Motel to Home program. It felt like a lifeline. SPARC, led by Joy Monroe, helps families like Faith’s escape the cycle of extended-stay living. The program covers deposits, first month’s rent, and helps families transition into stable housing. But it’s not easy—there are requirements, and families have to actively work toward qualifying. Faith did the work. She found an apartment within her budget, got approved, and finally moved in. Monroe, who started SPARC to support single moms like herself, knows the struggle all too well. Faith is still rebuilding—working toward her medical assistant certification, dreaming of opening her own business someday. But for now, she’s just grateful to have a place to call home. STORY 2: E-SPLOST headlines countywide ballot — but faces challenges This fall, Gwinnett voters have plenty to decide, but nothing’s stirring the pot quite like the E-SPLOST referendum. Here’s the deal: Gwinnett County Public Schools and Buford City Schools want to extend the 1% sales tax for another six years, aiming to rake in $1.47 billion—most of it ($1.44 billion) for GCPS. The money would go toward maintaining aging schools (average age: 24 years), fixing roofs, replacing HVAC systems, and even funding a new career and technical education center. Safety upgrades and Chromebooks? Also on the list. Supporters say it’s essential. Opponents? They’re calling out wasteful spending—like a $7 million church purchase with no clear plan. Turnout’s been dismal so far—just 1.7% of voters have shown up. Maybe it’s the confusion of needing multiple ballots in some areas. Or maybe people just aren’t paying attention. Either way, the stakes are high. STORY 3: Gwinnett police chief pushes back in Peachtree Corners debate Nancy McGregor doesn’t see the point. The Peachtree Corners resident has been a supporter of the Gwinnett County Police Department for years, and after attending a community meeting with Police Chief J.D. McClure, she’s even more convinced: the city doesn’t need its own police force. “When you’ve got an elite department like Gwinnett’s—with their training, resources, and expertise—why would we try to replicate that?” McGregor said. The meeting, held at Peachtree Corners Baptist Church, was the first time residents heard directly from county police about the city’s proposal to break away and form its own department. McClure didn’t hold back. Crime in Peachtree Corners? Down across the board. Robberies dropped 40% this year, assaults 41%, and commercial burglaries a staggering 66%. But it’s not just about crime stats. McClure laid out what the city would lose: specialized units like SWAT, K9, and Behavioral Health, plus the county’s ability to surge officers during emergencies. Residents like Paul La Motte left the meeting impressed. “I’ve always been against the idea of a city police department, but now? I’m even more confident Gwinnett’s got this.” McGregor agreed. “Hearing their side just confirmed it for me. They’re doing a great job.” We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets STORY 4: Rotary joint manufacturer maierAMERICA marks 25 years in Gwinnett Back in 2000, Germany’s Christian Maier GmbH & Co. KG decided to plant roots in the U.S., and they picked Gwinnett County as their home base. Fast forward 25 years, and their subsidiary, maierAMERICA, is still here—thriving, growing, and making waves in the Norcross area. This week, the company celebrated two big milestones: 25 years in Gwinnett and 100 years since its parent company’s founding. The company’s growth has been impressive. Just last year, they tripled their space to 20,500 square feet. Gwinnett County Commission Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson marked the occasion with a proclamation, calling maierAMERICA’s success a testament to the county’s role as a hub for international business. German Consul General Melanie Moltmann and other officials echoed the sentiment, celebrating the deep ties between Germany and the U.S. STORY 5: Georgia Supreme Court upholds conviction from fatal DUI in Gwinnett Victor Allen Smith’s conviction is sticking. The Georgia Supreme Court unanimously upheld the 2023 verdict that found Smith, 59, guilty of killing 22-year-old Hugo Natanael Martinez while fleeing a state trooper in Gwinnett County. Smith, who was sentenced to life in prison, had argued that evidence about his 18-year license suspension unfairly swayed the jury. But the court didn’t buy it, ruling the evidence against him was overwhelming. Back in March 2022, Smith was clocked speeding over 80 mph on I-85—then hit 120 mph trying to outrun the trooper. Martinez, standing by his truck on the shoulder, sadly never stood a chance. Smith struck him, sending him over a retaining wall. STORY 6: ART BEAT: Nocross Gallery's 'Shapes' fundraiser features artists in a friendly bidding war The bidding’s still going strong at Norcross Gallery and Studios! Their annual fundraiser, “Norcross Shapes,” runs through Nov. 2 at 2 p.m., and it’s a must-see (and bid) event. This month-long auction, which kicked off Oct. 5, supports everything from artist programs and community outreach to high school exhibitions and ongoing classes. The best part? You can either outbid the competition or pay the “full price” to snag your favorite piece on the spot. The artwork is as diverse as it gets—paintings, pottery, jewelry, even gift baskets. And the stories behind the pieces? Just as colorful. This year’s auction has no size limits, so expect everything from tiny treasures to statement pieces. Swing by the gallery at 116 Carlyle Street in downtown Norcross, open Thursday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Don’t miss it! STORY 7: Gladiators Legend: ECHL Hall of Famer Cam Brown Dies at 56 When the Gwinnett Gladiators needed a leader back in 2003, they found one in Cam Brown. Fresh out of retirement, the Canadian left winger joined the brand-new Duluth-based team, bringing grit, heart, and a lifetime of hockey experience. Over three seasons, he became the face of the franchise, leading them to a Kelly Cup Final and scoring the first goal in team history. On Sunday, fans and friends were devastated to learn Brown had passed away at just 56, reportedly in a motorcycle accident. Brown’s No. 44 jersey hangs in the rafters, a permanent reminder of his impact. He’s the only Gladiator in the ECHL Hall of Fame, a league he helped shape with 789 games, 206 goals, and 2,425 penalty minutes. Old school? Absolutely. But that’s what made him special. Brown leaves behind his wife, two children, and a legacy that stretches far beyond the rink. We’ll have closing comments after this Break 4: Ingles Markets Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

In this episode we interview Janick Marina Schaufelbuehl about her new book Crusading for Globalization: US Multinationals and Their Opponents Since 1945. From the publisher: “The first book to shed light on what caused corporate executives to pursue a pro-globalization agenda over the last eight decades. Crusading for Globalization tells the story of an extraordinarily influential group of business executives at the helms of the largest US multinational corporations and their quest to drive globalization forward over the last eight decades. Janick Marina Schaufelbuehl argues that the spectacular expansion of international investment, trade, and production after 1945 cannot be understood without considering the role played by these corporate globalizers and the organization they created, the US Council (today's United States Council for International Business). By shaping governmental policy through their congressional lobbying and close connections to successive presidential administrations, US Council members, including executives from General Electric, Coca Cola, and IBM, among others, consistently fought for ever more market deregulation, culminating in the creation of the World Trade Organization in 1995. Crusading for Globalization is also a book about those who opposed the growing might of multinationals. In the years immediately after World War II, resistance came from business protectionists, before labor and policymakers from the Global South joined the effort in the early 1970s. Schaufelbuehl breaks new ground by offering a panorama of this early anti-globalization movement, and by showing how the leaders of multinationals organized to limit its political influence. She also examines continuities between this early movement and the opposition to globalization that emerged at the beginning of the twenty-first century from the left and the populist right and discusses how business responded by promoting corporate social responsibility and voluntary guidelines. The first book to shed light on what caused corporate executives to pursue a pro-globalization agenda and to examine their methods for dealing with their opponents, Crusading for Globalization reveals the historical roots of today's disparities in wealth and income distribution.”

Sir Lenny Henry has called for the UK government to pay £18tn in slavery reparations for its role in the transatlantic slave trade, and argued that every black Briton also deserves compensation. The comedian, co-author of a new book titled The Big Payback, says the payments would help repair damage caused in parts of the Americas, especially the Caribbean, and argues slavery has contributed to modern day racism and poorer outcomes for black people in the UK. Opponents have argued it's unfair to hold modern Britons responsible for past wrongs and called the £18tn figure absurd and divisive - we find out where that figure came from, and what calculations went into it. Many in this debate point out that, although Britain profited from slavery, it also abolished it - we look at the reasons behind that shift and what it meant for slaves and slave owners. Plus, reparations used to be all about wars - how else have they been applied throughout history?Presenter: Adam Fleming Producers: Simon Tulett, Mike Wendling, Natasha Fernandes Editor: Richard Vadon Production coordinator: Janet Staples Studio engineer: Andrew Mills

California voters have one proposition on the ballot this November: Proposition 50. It's supporters want California to adopt a new congressional map that could give Democrats five more seats in the U.S. House of Representatives, a counter to similar actions taken in Texas. Opponents say it's a step in the wrong direction for good governance, or are upset at the potential loss of Republican seats. We wade into the debate with KQED's Guy Marzorati.

In response to the "No Kings" protests this weekend, President Trump shared an AI-generated video involving brown liquid that surely signifies excrement. On Today's Show:Stuart A. Thompson, reporter at The New York Times covering online influence, breaks down his latest reporting on how President Donald Trump is using fake artificial intelligence generated imagery to attack his perceived enemies and successfully rouse his supporters.

The Tuesday Truth: Reflections from the Radio Man On a brisk Tuesday morning, broadcaster and performance coach Stan Hustad—known to listeners as The Radio Man—takes his audience on another insightful journey through modern leadership and media reality. His latest episode of Inconvenient Ideas begins, as always, not with politics, but with a principle: “Donald Trump is still the king.” Not, Stan clarifies, the king of America—but the king of the ratings. And that's no small difference in today's performance economy, where visibility equals influence and airtime equals authority. He dominates the story,” Hustad observes. “Every time someone attacks him, they help him win the media game.” The result? A world where the loudest voice often becomes the leading one—and where even those who protest can unintentionally raise the crown on the very head they oppose. “It's a kingdom of attention,” Hustad notes, “and Trump still rules the realm.” The Nap Syndrome: Non-Achievement Performance But Stan's real message isn't about Trump—it's about us. He points to the weekend's “No Kings Rally,” a national protest that produced plenty of shouting but, as he calls it, “a NAP—a Non-Achievement Performance.” “Maybe it made them feel good,” he quips. “But nothing happened. Nothing changed.” That, Hustad suggests, is the danger in our modern culture of reaction: the illusion of activity without accomplishment. We substitute outrage for outcomes and noise for progress. The cure? Two words: So what? One of Hustad's mentors taught him that powerful question. Before you act, post, protest, or pontificate—ask, “So what? What will change? What will be better?” Leaders, he says, aren't just expressive—they're effective. They measure results, not reactions. From Power Plays to Purposeful Presence From there, Hustad draws a deeper leadership insight. Power, he explains, comes from motion. Donald Trump understands this well—keep money moving, keep people engaged, keep stories alive, and power follows. But there's another kind of power that Hustad lifts up: the power of self-expression and self-listening. In the “Do It Right” era—the performance economy he coaches others to master—success belongs to those who know how to communicate with clarity, confidence, and authenticity. “We're in the Transformation Zone now,” he says. “It's not enough to do it—you have to do it right.” Whether you're leading a company, a church, or a creative venture, the microphone is now your crown. The question is, what kind of king—or servant—will you be? Things to Think About, Share, and Remember • Self-Expression + Self-Listening = Real Leadership. Speak your truth—but make sure it makes sense when you hear it back. • Ask “So What?” Before You Act. It's the simplest way to filter what truly matters. • Avoid the NAP Trap. Don't spend your energy on Non-Achievement Performances. • Remember Who (or What) Is King in Your Life. Is it ego, money, media—or something higher? • Power Follows Movement. Keep good things—ideas, generosity, creativity—moving. That's how you lead with influence. A Call to Reflection and Action Stan closes his broadcast with a question worth repeating: “Who or what do you want to be king in your life?” For some, it's wealth or recognition. For others, it's principle or faith. Hustad reminds listeners that those who follow the Christian tradition often speak of King Jesus—a different kind of kingdom built not on domination but on service and good works. His final challenge is simple: Don't waste your days taking NAPs. Build something. Lead something. Do it right. And if you're ready to start—whether in business, broadcasting, or personal transformation—Stan Hustad can help you find your voice and make your mark.

This November, Californians are being asked to decide whether the state can redraw our congressional districts with Proposition 50.  California Democrats say Prop. 50 is their answer to pressure from President Trump on red states like Texas, which redrew its congressional maps to favor Republicans in next year's midterm elections. Opponents say it tramples on California's independent redistricting process, which voters approved more than a decade ago. This episode originally aired on Aug. 10, 2025.

Attorney and author Dennis Brennan joined me today to explore the unexpected parallels between Donald Trump and Aaron Burr. It turned out to be a perfect conversation to have on “No Kings” day. His latest book, “D.C. Swamp Strikes Back: Aaron Burr, Donald Trump and Their Similar Battles: Victims Separated by Centuries: Bound by Opponents' Hatred” sounds like a great read.

Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you wrap up the week. On today's podcast, the guys discussed the Oilers' two-game win streak, trade rumours, most hated opponents, and much more.The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with some Oilers talk after the boys picked up a pair of wins over the Canucks and Rangers. Somehow, talking about those two wins led to a discussion about potential trade targets for Edmonton, even though it's way too early to really even discuss the possibilities. Following the trade talks down the rabbithole, the guys debated about who they would rather have in a trade: Tage Thompson or Ilya Sorokin.From there, the discussion shifted to the players or opponents we irrationally hate just because they played for an opposing team. Whether it was a former Flame like Robyn Regehr crushing Ales Hemsky to the Dallas Stars running the show during the playoffs in the late 90s, there were plenty of options to choose from, and the reasons for hating them were all over the map. If anything, this exercise was a trip down memory lane and a reminder of how long some of these memories can last.Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast with an array of topics, including the Jays trying to even up the series in Seattle, the Oilers looking for a third consecutive win, Ike Howard's spot in the lineup, and whatever else popped into anyone's mind. Needless to say, the last chunk of the podcast was a classic dose of Real Life because no single topic seemed to last more than a minute or two. Structure? Kinda. Bouncing all over the place? Absolutely. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Trump regime is intensifying its campaign against left-wing activism that opposes it's own rhetoric. At a White House roundtable, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem compared antifa to ISIS, Hamas, and Hezbollah—calling them “just as dangerous.” Days earlier, President Trump signed an executive order declaring antifa a “domestic terrorist organization,” despite experts saying the non-violent movement has no central leadership or structure.

A major barrier to reducing toxic polarization is that so many of us—especially those who are highly politically involved—see our current toxic conflict as clearly the other side's fault. People in both groups focus on the grievances that alarm them most but often struggle to understand what bothers their adversaries. From the outside, our opponents' complaints can look minor, silly, or misinformed compared to our concerns, which we (naturally) see as legitimate and based in reality. The more we subscribe to these narratives, the more we risk becoming arrogant, convinced that “you'd have to be an idiot” not to see which group is worse and more at fault for our conflict and division. All this serves to fan the flames of toxic polarization. This episode looks at how both political groups build their polarized, angry narratives where "it's all the other side's fault."

Accusations of Democratic Extremism Ben and Sen Cruz call out Democrats for using inflammatory language (e.g., calling Republicans “fascists,” ICE “Gestapo,” or U.S. politics a “supervillain convention”). They argue this rhetoric contributes to real-world violence, citing examples like the assassination of Charlie Kirk, attacks on ICE facilities, and other incidents. ICE and Law Enforcement The segment focuses on how Democrats describe ICE in terms linked to Nazi Germany, slavery, and authoritarian regimes. The commentary frames these descriptions as dangerous because they demonize law enforcement and allegedly inspire violence against officers. Government Shutdown Hypocrisy The discussion highlights Democrats’ past opposition to government shutdowns (using 2018 quotes) and contrasts it with their alleged role in a current shutdown. The speakers accuse Democrats of hypocrisy, noting they once said shutdowns hurt “everyday Americans” but are now engaged in one themselves. Violence and Ideological Conflict Ben and Sen Cruz emphasize left-wing violence, referencing BLM protests, campus antisemitism, riots in Los Angeles, and assassination attempts. They contrast this with what they describe as conservative restraint, claiming the right condemns violence universally while the left often encourages or celebrates it.

Cold calling terrifies most salespeople more than losing their biggest account. The rejection. The hang-ups. The voice telling you that you're bothering people who don't want to hear from you. Before transitioning into sales, Steve Munn spent nine years as a professional hockey defenseman. As a hockey player, his job was to make life difficult for the other team and absorb whatever they dished back.  "Part of it was getting punched in the face," he said on a recent episode of the Sales Gravy Podcast. "If I get a no from a prospect, that's maybe a bad day, but it's certainly not as bad as getting a concussion or a broken nose again." That perspective shift, understanding what actually constitutes a threat, changes everything about how you approach cold calling. It goes beyond being tougher or having thicker skin. Your Fear Isn't About the Call Most sales professionals will do anything to avoid call blocks. They'll update their CRM. Reorganize their pipeline. Respond to emails that could wait three days. Anything but pick up the phone. The problem isn't the person on the other end of the line. You don't want to be the one who fumbles, doesn't have the right answer, or proves you don't belong in that conversation. Imposter syndrome thrives in sales because every call is another opportunity to prosecute yourself. Every objection becomes evidence that you're not cut out for this. Every hang-up confirms what you secretly suspected: You're bothering people who have better things to do. That internal narrative is all in your head, and it's costing you deals. Get Your Mind Right First You can't make effective cold calls when you're living in your head. Anxiety, overthinking, or trying to sound perfect makes every conversation feel forced. Nothing bad actually happens on a sales call. Your life isn't in danger, and a hung-up phone or curt “not interested” barely registers as a problem. The best cold callers aren't fearless. They're prepared mentally before they start dialing. Find what gets you into the right frame of mind: review recent wins, remind yourself that you're solving real problems, or call a colleague for perspective. The goal is connecting with another human, not executing a perfect pitch. People can tell the difference. Separate Message From Delivery When someone says "we're all set" and hangs up, they're not making a judgment about your worth as a salesperson or a human being. They're communicating one thing: They're not interested right now. The delivery might feel harsh, and the tone might sound dismissive. But the message is simple and impersonal. Athletes learn this early. Coaches scream. Teammates criticize. Opponents talk trash. If you react emotionally to how something is said rather than hearing what's actually being communicated, you become ineffective. In sales, the same principle applies. When you stop taking the delivery personally, you can actually hear what's being said. Sometimes what sounds like a hard no is actually "you haven't given me a reason to care yet" or "call me back in six months." You Don't Need to Know Everything One of the biggest barriers to cold calling is the belief you must have all the answers. You hesitate because you think, "What if they ask something I don't know? I'll look like a fool." Here's what that thinking misses: You have a team. No salesperson operates in a vacuum. You've got service teams, technical experts, partners, and colleagues who collectively know far more than you do individually. The expectation that you should show up with encyclopedic knowledge is self-imposed and unrealistic. What matters on a cold call isn't demonstrating expertise. It's demonstrating curiosity and commitment.  When you release yourself from the pressure to be perfect, cold calling becomes about investigation rather than performance.  Ask Questions Nobody Else Does Most salespeople treat cold calls like a race to present their solution.
