Pastor Jack gives his opinion on Islamic terrorists, their worldview, their connection to religion, and how it all relates spiritually. What exactly are the "deceiving spirits" and the "doctrines of demons" that the Bible warns us would prevail in the last days? This is a time when we need to be vigilant and have our spiritual armor on to withstand what's upon us now and what is approaching in the future.(00:00) Opening on Violence, Islam, and Spiritual Deception(01:16) 1 Timothy 4 and the Meaning of the Last Days(03:18) Cultural Change as Evidence of Deceiving Spirits(07:13) Terrorism, Islam, and Current Events(10:08) Deuteronomy 28 and National Judgment(11:34) Quran Passages and Hibbs’ Comparison to the Bible(16:14) How the Bible and Quran Differ in Origin and Message(19:20) Islam, America, and the Question of Assimilation(25:25) The Antichrist, Prophecy, and the Future of Islam(26:47) Final Warning About Modern Doctrines of DemonsCONNECT WITH PASTOR JACK:Get Updates via Text:  https://text.whisp.io/jack-hibbs-podcast Website: https://jackhibbs.com/Instagram: http://bit.ly/2FCyXpOFacebook: https://bit.ly/2WZBWV0 YouTube: https://bit.ly/437xMHnTwitter/X: https://x.com/RealJackHibbs CALLED TO TAKE A BOLD STAND:https://boldstand.org/ DAZE OF DECEPTION:https://jackhibbs.com/daze-of-deception/ Did you know we have a Real Life Network?

Published as a 47-page pamphlet in colonial America on January 10, 1776, Common Sense challenged the authority of the British government and the royal monarchy. The elegantly plain and persuasive language that Thomas Paine used touched the hearts and minds of the average American and was the first work to openly ask for political freedom and independence from Great Britain. Paine’s powerful words came to symbolize the spirit of the Revolution itself. General George Washington had it read to his troops.

Robert J. Morgan joins Michael Easley for a powerful conversation about the history, theology, and enduring influence of Christian hymns. Why have these songs lasted for centuries? What are we losing when churches abandon them? And how can we recover the richness of hymnody without rejecting modern worship? Drawing from his book The Origin of Hymns, Morgan traces the story of congregational singing from the song of Moses in Book of Exodus, through the golden age of English hymnody with writers like Isaac Watts and Charles Wesley, to the modern era. He shares the powerful backstory behind “It Is Well With My Soul” by Horatio Spafford, and how that hymn connects to the film I Can Only Imagine 2. This episode challenges pastors, worship leaders, and believers to rediscover hymns not as nostalgia—but as theological formation. Hymns teach us how to worship, how to suffer, and how to endure.

Casey Brown, pricing expert and author of Fearless Pricing, shares her journey from chemical engineer to entrepreneur and pricing consultant. Casey unpacks why most businesses — regardless of size or industry — are leaving money on the table due to fear-based pricing decisions. She explains the psychology behind underpricing, the dangers of unnecessary discounting, and why a customer objecting on price is actually a buying signal. Casey also gets personal about her path from poverty to Fortune 500 to founder, the lessons of niching down early, the importance of meditation, and her evolving pursuit of a more intentional, peaceful pace of work.Chapters:00:00 Intro & Elevator Pitch03:10 The Origin of a Pricing Geek05:20 The Leap from Corporate to Entrepreneur10:10 Niche Down Sooner13:55 Post-It Note Wisdom17:50 Mantra & Mindset Under Pressure19:30 Imposter Syndrome & Self-Doubt26:55 Pricing Blind Spots & Fears30:55 How to Set the Right Price42:20 Price Objections Are Buying Signals44:50 Why You Need Pricing Meetings47:40 Action Item & Fearless PricingFind Casey Online:Personal Website: www.caseybrown.comBusiness Website: www.boostpricing.comLinkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/caseybrownboost/Youtube: www.youtube.com/@boostpricing

What if I told you that one of the most popular beauty treatments today is made form one of the most powerful toxins known to science?In this bonus episode, I'm breaking down what Botox actually is, how it went from food poisoning to a cosmetic staple, and why it's become so normalized that people are getting it down on their lunch breaks. We'll talk about how it works in the body, the side effects people don't always mention, and what repeated use might actually be doing long-term.This isn't about fear or judgment - it's about understanding what's really going on beneath the surface.

Are we focusing on the wrong threats while ignoring the ones growing right inside our own communities? Join Mike, Tim, and Seth as they dive deep into the biblical definition of the Antichrist, the manipulative power of fear, and how the modern church often aligns itself with worldly systems rather than the Kingdom of God. This episode moves beyond traditional labels to explore what it actually means to live in a cosmically contested space. In this conversation, the team unpacks the startling New Testament reality that antichrists are often plural and internal to the church, rather than a single external boogeyman. We discuss the recent tragic events in Iran and how nationalistic rhetoric often blinds us to the suffering of others. By looking at the life of Jesus through the lens of security versus threat, we explore why the church is so easily led by fear and how we can begin to resist the systemic powers of individualism, tribalism, and redemptive violence.

This conversation was originally released in February of 2025. We're replaying this episode because Cognex sits right at the intersection of AI and robotics. As the market focuses more on physical AI and automation in 2026, machine vision is becoming an increasingly important part of that story. Today we are breaking down Cognex, the leader in machine vision. Cognex builds the cameras, sensors, and software that allow factories and logistics systems to see. Their technology inspects products, detects defects, reads barcodes, and guides robots across manufacturing lines and warehouses around the world. Cognex is not your typical recurring revenue story. It is a cyclical industrial business that has grown by repeatedly finding new “S-curves” in automation. From early semiconductor inspection to modern logistics systems and AI-driven vision, the company has spent decades expanding the applications of machine vision across industries. Our guest today is Brett Larson from NZS Capital. Brett walks us through the history of machine vision, Cognex's unique culture and founder story, and the company's position inside the broader automation ecosystem. We also discuss how Cognex sells into factories, the competitive dynamics with companies like Keyence, and why new technologies like deep learning could unlock the next wave of growth.

Crypto OG Erik Voorhees joins The Chopping Block crew to dissect the future of agentic payments, the eternal war for privacy, memecoin-fueled AI drama on Moltbook, and why your next DeFi user might just be your OpenClaw agent—plus, a candid look at crypto's core and how AI turns software engineering existential. Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week, we're joined by none other than Erik Voorhees, legendary crypto pioneer and founder of Venice, for a no-holds-barred discussion on the wild convergence of AI, crypto, and the meme coin casino. Erik unpacks his journey from anti-surveillance crusader to AI entrepreneur, why Venice is all-in on privacy and free speech for LLMs, and how “provable privacy” is a Sisyphean technical challenge. The crew breaks down OpenClaw's agent drama, memecoin carpet-bombing of Moltbook, and Meta muscling in on AI social networks. We debate agentic payments (will your first paying customer soon be a bot?), the true game theory behind state surveillance, and why crypto's greatest killer use case might actually be building tools for robots instead of humans. Plus: existential crises for software engineers, why “AI alignment” is a philosophical dead end, and the childlike glee (or open psychosis) of trading OpenClaw war stories at AI meetups.

In this timely and important episode, Craig sits down with Lily Zheng, one of today's leading voices on workplace transformation, to tackle the challenges and evolution of DEI. Lily brings both research-backed frameworks and real-world pragmatism, reflecting on how shifting from DEI to FAIR offers a practical way through current backlash and confusion.Lily's refreshing candor provides a thought-provoking and valuable frame to the conversation. They don't shy from complexity, but treat hesitancy, fear, and failure as necessary parts of meaningful progress.The episode is filled with practical advice, including tying every initiative to a real business problem, focusing on behaviors not buzzwords, and the need for every leader to own the responsibility for inclusion. Technology's double-edged role is candidly discussed, warning leaders that AI will multiply both strengths and flaws.At its core, this episode asks: how do we actually do better? Lily urges leaders to focus on “atomic units” of behavioral change, reminding us that real progress is messy, ongoing, and built one intentional action at a time.What You'll Learn- The power and pitfalls of language in DEI work.- Navigating the politicization of inclusion.- Let data—not dogma—drive your priorities- Move beyond ‘admiring the problem': Replacing performative acts with real progress.- Redefining representation: Beyond the numbers.- Technology & AI: A double-edged sword.- The power of atomic units of change.Podcast Timestamps(00:00) - Introduction to Lily Zheng and the Origin of the Book(08:00) - Reframing DEI: Why Focus on Fairness?(14:41) – Lessons in Leadership: DEI Backlash(20:34) - From Performative to Problem-Solving DEI(25:15) - Systemic Change & Diversity Leadership(35:55) - Representation vs. Quotas and Building Trust(43:04) - Technology, AI & Fairness Risks(48:38) - FOFO: Fear of Finding Out and Organizational Reality(56:14) - The Atomic Unit: Driving Change Through BehaviorsKEYWORDSPositive Leadership, Fairness, DEI, Inclusion, Equity, Representation, Organizational Change, Systemic Change, Workplace Culture, Diversity, Performative DEI, Accountability, Unconscious Bias Training, Artificial Intelligence, Politics, Cultural Transformation, CEO Success

Her Excellency is a Saudi tech-diplomat shaping the future of the global digital economy. As the founding Secretary-General of the Digital Cooperation Organization (DCO), she leads international efforts to bring governments, innovators, and institutions together to ensure technology becomes a force for inclusive and sustainable growth. In doing so, she also made history as the first Saudi woman to lead the secretariat of an international organization. On this episode, we discuss what it took to build the DCO from the ground up during the uncertainty of COVID, often with limited resources but a clear global vision. The conversation explores Saudi Arabia's rapid digital transformation and how it has become a real-world case study for modern government services, digital payments, and improving quality of life. We unpacked the idea of “tech diplomacy”, why digital governance, standards, and cross-border cooperation are now critical as technology reshapes economies, politics, and the global flow of information. 0:00 Intro 4:43 What Is the Digital Cooperation Organization 7:49 Building DCO from Scratch9:02 DCO's Global Momentum 11:34 Why Technology? 12:31 Empowering Women Through E-Commerce 14:16 The Origin of Women Spark 17:24 Training, Incubators, and Angel Networks for Women in Tech 19:57 Working at Microsoft 23:09 What Is a Tech Diplomat 27:59 Social Platforms Influence 29:22 Why Self-Reliance in Tech Matters 34:14 Saudi Arabia's Digital Government Transformation 36:12 Why Connectivity Alone Is Not Enough 38:59 Saudi Digital Systems and Global Readiness Gaps 42:46 Advice to Young People in the Digital Economy 46:31 Career Advice: Focus on the Step in Front of You 50:01 Why Digital Prosperity for All Is Achievable 51:21 The Next Big Challenge: AI and a New Digital Divide 55:34 Closing Reflections

Years ago, Maria Eckersley found herself needing the Savior more than ever. As her husband battled pancreatic cancer, Easter became more than a holiday—it became a lifeline of hope, hope in the promises of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Instead of creating a long list of activities or traditions, Maria created what she calls a "tradition of teaching." In this episode, Maria shares how intentionally focusing her family on the gift of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ transformed her home and her gratitude for Easter.    2:42- Origin of Testimony 6:13- Salt Lake Temple Open House Celebration 9:59- A Choice to Celebrating Easter 15:18- A Tradition of Teaching 20:13- What a Connection with the Lord Does 22:08- There's Always Water 25:08- The Promises If the Resurrection is True 29:15- The Duality in Easter 34:04- Easter Through the Lens of the Book of Mormon 37:33- What Does It Mean To Be All In the Gospel of Jesus Christ?    "I think there's a lot of that commercial side that we can set down when it comes to Easter. So for me, I guess I see Christmas as a season of giving and receiving in the Savior's way and when it comes to Easter, I see Easter focused on it's all about me receiving...it literally is just His divine gift that is given to all of us. It's a time for us to celebrate that gift, to appreciate it, maybe to emulate it but it's really all about receiving and I just think there's some tenderness in that."   Links: Teaching Easter by Maria Eckersley Elder Neal A. Maxwell- "The cavity which suffering carves into our souls will one day also be the receptacle of joy."

Professor John Donoghue explains why quantum physics and gravity actually work perfectly together. He tackles quadratic gravity, effective field theory, and random dynamics, arguing that grand unification and naturalness aren't required for a theory of everything.

In this deeply personal and insightful episode, host Doug sits down with Dr. Jeremy Goldberg a PhD scientist turned life coach, TEDx speaker, and author. Dr. Goldberg shares the powerful "origin story" of his kindness movement, starting with a simple, brave act for a stranger in an airport that transformed his life and career. The conversation dives into the internal negotiation between "Heart Whispers" (our quiet intuitive nudges) and "Fear Shouts" (the loud, anxious voices that stop us from acting with integrity). Whether you are a man navigating the "before times" and "after times" of fatherhood, or someone looking to reconnect with your authentic self beneath years of social constructs, this episode offers a roadmap for leading a more compassionate, courageous life.   Key Topics Covered:   ·         The Power of Small Acts: How a handwritten card in an airport sparked a global mission to make kindness cool. ·         Intuition vs. Anxiety: Understanding the "Fear Shouts and Heart Whispers" mantra to navigate life's uncertainty. ·         The Human Psyche and Snap Judgments: Why our brains use evolutionary shortcuts to judge strangers in traffic and public spaces. ·         Authenticity and Childhood Constructs: Challenging the "survivor" personalities we built as children to find who we truly are. ·         The Hidden Grief of Parenthood: A raw discussion on the loss of identity and time that comes with becoming a new father. ·         Invisible Benevolent Forces: Exploring the synchronicities and nudges that lead us toward growth and connection.   About Dr. Jeremy Goldberg   Dr. Jeremy Goldberg is a PhD-trained scientist turned life coach, author, and speaker whose mission is to make kindness and compassion a global standard. Known as a "dream doula," he leverages a decade of international research into human behavior to help individuals reclaim their agency and rewrite the personal stories that hold them back. His diverse background—spanning from ordained ministry and SCUBA diving to hosting a top-ranked global podcast and leading 200 km pilgrimages in Spain—informs his unique approach to "conviction excavation" and personal growth.   Through his brand, Long Distance Love Bombs, Jeremy uses creative writing and spoken word poetry as mediums for healing and clarity. He focuses on the idea that beliefs are choices and identities are malleable, providing his clients with the faith and tools needed to stimulate profound life epiphanies. With a book titled It'll Be Okay, And You Will Be Too and a TEDx talk questioning "What if kindness was cool?", he continues to bridge the gap between rigorous scientific understanding and heartfelt, creative expression to make the world better than he found it.   Social links of Dr. Jeremy Goldberg Website – https://www.longdistancelovebombs.com Substack - https://longdistancelovebombs.substack.com/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/DrJeremyGoldberg Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/LongDistanceLoveBombs Book – https://shopcatalog.com/product/itll-be-okay-and-you-will-be-too/ Newsletter – https://longdistancelovebombs.mykajabi.com/email Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/longdistancelovebombs TEDx talk – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mklMPHGLjo Podcast - https://anchor.fm/longdistancelovebombs   Social links of Doug Beitz Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dougbeitz/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dougbeitz/ Website: https://buymeacoffee.com/dougbeitz Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6mQ258nugC3lyw3SpvYuoK?si=7cec409527d34438 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/intuitive-conversations-with-doug/id1593172364 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/doug-beitz-472a4b338/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dougbeitz178

Interview Only w/ John Adams - Bringing Local News Back From The Brink John Adams, editor of the Montana Free Press, joins the Chuck Toddcast to make the case that local journalism has been in crisis — and that saving it might be one of the most important things Americans can do for their democracy. Adams is on the show to promote Local News Day on April 9th, a nationwide effort involving 700 local newsrooms aimed not at fundraising but at spreading awareness. He traces the origin story of the Montana Free Press back to his appearance in the documentary "Dark Money", a story about outside money quietly trying to buy Montana politics at the local level with zero disclosure — and the journalists best positioned to expose it were losing their jobs. Adams argues the economics of local news changed drastically as advertising revenue collapsed and audiences became hypnotized by social media and smartphones, but that the need and appetite for local reporting never went away. The conversation turns to the deeper consequences of local news deserts: the loss of trusted community voices created a vacuum that bred distrust in the national press, because people no longer had local "character references" — journalists they knew and saw at the grocery store — to anchor their understanding of how media works. Adams warns that the rise of AI-generated misinformation makes reliable local sources more important than ever, noting that while younger people tend to be savvier at spotting junk online, older generations are particularly vulnerable. They close by noting that strong local news doesn't just serve democracy — it helps local businesses target customers, creating an economic ecosystem that benefits everyone — and that journalism ultimately has to reach enough people to really matter, which is exactly what Local News Day at localnewsday.org is designed to help make possible.

Chuck Todd surveys a political landscape where multiple crises are converging on the Trump administration simultaneously — and none of them are going well. The Iran war, which Chuck reiterates is a war of choice, appears to be devouring Trump's presidency: the administration burned through nearly $6 billion in munitions in just two days, is sending contradictory messages of reassurance and escalation that appear designed to manipulate markets, and seems to be operating entirely by the seat of its pants. He warns that asymmetric warfare has never gone well for the United States, that energy markets are in turmoil as Iran deliberately tries to inflict economic pain, that the threat of stagflation and energy shortages is very real, and that Trump's threat to use the Fed to shape oil markets has alarmed economists. He argues that if Trump could undo the war he would — but this won't be Venezuela 2.0, because there's no opposition on the ground to coordinate with, you can't change a regime without boots on the ground that Trump won't commit, and if the regime simply survives, that counts as victory for Iran. Meanwhile, Trump naively buys Putin's claim that Russia isn't helping Iran with targeting, and that new polling shows a majority of Americans oppose the war — with MAGA influencers notably against it even as older rank-and-file supporters stick with Trump. Beyond Iran, Chuck hits the Ticketmaster settlement as proof that Trump talks a big populist game but the lobbyists always win, warns that a partial DHS shutdown risks snarling air travel and punishing the flying public while ICE has already been funded, and cautions Democrats not to overplay their hand on the shutdown. Then, John Adams, editor of the Montana Free Press, joins the Chuck Toddcast to make the case that local journalism has been in crisis — and that saving it might be one of the most important things Americans can do for their democracy. Adams is on the show to promote Local News Day on April 9th, a nationwide effort involving 700 local newsrooms aimed not at fundraising but at spreading awareness. He traces the origin story of the Montana Free Press back to his appearance in the documentary "Dark Money", a story about outside money quietly trying to buy Montana politics at the local level with zero disclosure — and the journalists best positioned to expose it were losing their jobs.

My guest today is Shyam Sankar, the CTO of Palantir Technologies. In this conversation, we explore the ideas that shape how Shyam thinks about technology, talent, and national power. We discuss the origins of Palantir's forward-deployed engineering model and the lessons he learned from Alex Karp about identifying people's "superpowers". We also talk about Shyam's fascination with the "heretics" of American history, the unconventional builders who challenged bureaucracy and created many of the systems that powered America's military and industrial success. Shyam argues that the United States must reindustrialize after decades of moving production overseas, and explains what we can learn from America's industrial past. In a new Colossus profile, our Editor in Chief Jeremy Stern tells the story of how Shyam became one of the most important but largely unseen figures behind Palantir, tracing his journey from immigrant roots to employee #13 and the architect of the company's success and distinctive culture.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Latrisha McIntosh and LaTasha Taylor. Founders of BSM Media Group and the award‑winning BSM Magazine. The conversation covers beauty standards, entrepreneurship, their journey from a one-page blog during the recession to becoming media entrepreneurs, the highs and lows of their career, their spiritual grounding, their historic interview with Oprah Winfrey, and their mission to create dignified, uplifting media. Purpose of the Interview The interview serves to: ⭐ Highlight the twins’ entrepreneurial journey How they built BSM Magazine and BSM Media Group from scratch during the 2008 recession. ⭐ Discuss their philosophy on beauty, representation, and purpose They emphasize inner beauty, authenticity, and rejecting societal pressure—values that shape their platform and interviews. ⭐ Inspire entrepreneurs Through transparency about lows (being undervalued) and highs (interviewing Oprah), they demonstrate resilience, faith, and consistency. ⭐ Showcase their impact Including discovering rising talent early (e.g., Tabitha Brown), providing media opportunities, and evolving into producers, writers, and content creators. Key Takeaways 1. The Origin of BSM Magazine Started as a one‑page business blog during the 2008 recession to serve rising entrepreneurs. They credit the magazine’s creation as “something that God gave us.” Their natural creativity as twins carried over from childhood. 2. Inner Beauty and Authenticity They define beauty as inner strength, confidence, and embracing the way God created you. Social media culture magnifies appearance, but they insist “outer beauty must align with inner beauty.” 3. Sustaining Success Their differentiation comes from focusing on: Quality content Spotlighting overlooked talent Doing things mainstream outlets often ignore They interviewed Tabitha Brown before she became widely known and gave actress Essence Atkins her first magazine cover. 4. Challenges and Low Points Being undervalued and overlooked in the media industry. Being judged by numbers or pushed to the back of the line. Yet, they emphasize:“That ‘no’ comes back around … bigger and better.” 5. High Points Their divine‑timed interview with Oprah in April 2018: They put Oprah on a vision board in January. LaTasha tweeted her daily for six months. Oprah unexpectedly turned around on the red carpet and approached them for an interview.This became a milestone moment in their career. 6. Operating a Media Company as Twins They learned to respect each other’s strengths: LaTasha: writing, articles, layouts Latrisha: creative direction and balance Their partnership is spiritually rooted and purpose-driven. 7. Expanding Beyond a Magazine The magazine now lives under BSM Media Group, which produces: Celebrity content Corporate and government media The Twins a Media Show They evolved into scriptwriters, producers, and consultants. 8. Longevity Comes From Quality They prioritize: Clean, dignified media Positive storytelling Production standards They tell entrepreneurs not to focus on numbers—focus on quality, and longevity will follow. Notable Quotes On Beauty “Inner beauty has such a powerful way of allowing us to be our true selves.” “Embrace your eyes, your nose, your hips—all the way God made you.” “Imagine if everybody operated in their own lane. That signifies beauty at its highest level.” On Entrepreneurship “We realized we were in the business of seeing people—because we were the underdogs.” “Don’t worry about your numbers. Quality will always stand.” “Sometimes your visions are crazy, and they don’t make sense to people—but believe anyway.” On Overcoming Doubt “A low point is being undervalued—but God has a sense of humor. That ‘no’ comes back around.” “We’ve heard it all. You need layers of skin to accept when someone thinks you're not good enough.” On Their Oprah Moment “She turned around, walked past everyone, and came straight to us.” “Nobody but God—and a little effort from Tasha!” On Partnership “God made us twins for a reason.

Today we're discussing the legendary Forever Changes by Love. We're also doing a deep dive into the tragic story of singer and main songwriter Arthur Lee. Forever Changes is widely considered one of the best albums ever made, but it was a massive failure when it released. Later in life, Lee had many run-ins with the law, culminating in his wrongful imprisonment in 1996. He then died at the age of 61 in 2006.   Intro 00:00 Problems at the Very Beginning 1:08 Origin of the Album's Title 2:18 Chaos While Recording 2:55 Lee's Inspiration for the Album 5:56 Then the Album Bombed 8:22 Analyzing the Music 15:20 Lee's Connection to Jimi Hendrix 29:39 He Wore a Wig? 31:35 Origin of the Name "Love" 31:50 Love After Forever Changes 32:33 Lee's Imprisonment and Death 33:38 Outro 42:48    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Join the Patreon, it rules: https://www.patreon.com/everyalbumever   Mike's music: Pander Monkey on Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple,   Mike on Instagram @pandermonkey Tom on Instagram @tomosmansounds   Tom Osman's stuff: Music on Spotify, Apple, Website Podcast on Spotify, YouTube     ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Published as a 47-page pamphlet in colonial America on January 10, 1776, Common Sense challenged the authority of the British government and the royal monarchy. The elegantly plain and persuasive language that Thomas Paine used touched the hearts and minds of the average American and was the first work to openly ask for political freedom and independence from Great Britain. Paine’s powerful words came to symbolize the spirit of the Revolution itself. General George Washington had it read to his troops.

Get Dr. Vonda's latest insights on strength, bone health, longevity, and aging with power delivered straight to your inbox. Join her free health & longevity newsletter here: https://www.drvondawright.com/resources/aging-longevity   You only build bone during deep sleep, and only if you get enough of a growth hormone spike to make it happen. As someone who has spent her career fighting osteoporosis, I had never connected those dots that clearly before. Morning light, deep sleep, and bone density are part of the same biological chain. That alone is worth the listen. This week, I am joined by Dr. John La Puma, the originator of culinary medicine. After reviewing over 2,200 studies for his new book, Indoor Epidemic, his conclusion is both sobering and actionable: we are spending 93% of our lives indoors, and our biology is paying for it in ways most of us cannot even perceive. Fatigue. Brain fog. Disrupted sleep. Accelerated aging. And we keep reaching for supplements and prescriptions when the answer is often just outside the door. What we cover: - Why 93% of our time indoors is a biological emergency quietly aging us faster from the inside out. - How 10 to 15 minutes of morning light resets your circadian clock and primes your body for deep, restorative sleep. - Why screen light within 30 minutes of bedtime drops melatonin by 20%, no matter what else you did right. - How deep sleep triggers the growth hormone spike your body needs to build bone, making it a frontline tool against osteoporosis. - Why green exercise feels 20% easier and drops cortisol by 21% when done in a place of your choice. - What digital obesity really means and why too many pixels burn out your brain the same way too much sugar burns out your metabolism. - How one hour of gardening a week can lower hemoglobin A1C by 0.5%, roughly equal to a starting dose of metformin. - What the Louisville Green Heart Study found, including a 22% drop in CRP, when greenery came to a community. - Why two to five intentional hours outdoors each week can give you up to five years of health span back.   About Dr. John La Puma: Dr. John La Puma is an academic clinician, trained chef, and organic farmer recognized as the originator of culinary medicine. He runs a certified organic educational farm in Santa Barbara and led the first CME course in the country teaching physicians to use nature as medicine. Indoor Epidemic is his distillation of 2,200 studies into a practical guide for reclaiming your biology.

Cat & Cloud Podcast  Cat & Cloud Coffee www.catandcloud.com/ Finding Joy in Every Season of Work: Part I – Ep #440 Summary In this episode, Chris and Jared (plus Casey) reflect on the early days that pulled us into specialty coffee and how those experiences shaped the work we're still doing today. From skateboarding friendships and barista competitions to building cafés and leading teams, we talk about how the things that bring joy evolve over time. As careers grow and responsibilities expand, the work changes—and sometimes the parts you loved most become harder to hold onto. We explore the idea that every season of life and business brings different sources of meaning, and that part of the real work is finding the through lines that keep the joy alive. This conversation looks back at where it all started while asking an ongoing question: how do you stay connected to the things that made you love the work in the first place?

To watch a video version of this podcast, click here: https://youtu.be/eK-WIS7inMUIn this episode, Reuben Saltzman and Tessa Murry talk with Steve Rogers, President of The Energy Conservatory (TEC), about the science behind home performance and why so many HVAC systems fall short of expectations. Steve shares TEC's journey from early prototypes to industry‑standard testing tools and explains how comfort, moisture, and efficiency issues often stem from the building envelope. The conversation dives into blower doors, airflow testing, duct leakage, furnace short‑cycling, restrictive filters, oversized systems, and the key measurements inspectors and homeowners commonly miss, offering practical insights for homeowners, inspectors, HVAC technicians, and building‑science enthusiasts alike.You can check out The Energy Conservatory website here: www.energyconservatory.comTakeawaysTEC manufactures tools that measure building airtightness, duct leakage, and airflow—core metrics for diagnosing home performance issues.Blower door testing became essential because leaky houses waste energy, cause comfort issues, and contribute to attic moisture problems.Early blower door prototypes were expensive and slow; TEC revolutionized the field with affordable, efficient models.Airflow is one of the hardest HVAC metrics to measure accurately; TEC's TruFlow Grid helps techs commission systems properly.Most furnaces and ACs are never tested for correct airflow after installation, which leads to early equipment failure and poor efficiency.High temperature rise = low airflow. This often causes the furnace to hit its high‑limit switch and shut off prematurely.Oversizing is rampant—many homes have furnaces 1.5–2× larger than needed, increasing noise, inefficiency, and comfort issues.Filter restrictions depend on pressure drop, not just MERV rating. Pleat depth and surface area matter more than the number printed on the label.3M Filtrete filters maintain reasonable pressure drops because they add pleats as MERV levels increase.The most important starting point in energy upgrades is a blower door test, not HVAC replacement.Older homes—especially balloon‑framed houses—are extremely leaky and need targeted air‑sealing.Complicated house shapes (L‑shaped, multi‑level splits, many dormers) are typically leakier than simple rectangular designs.Many contractors still do not measure airflow or static pressure, causing repeat callbacks and inefficiency.TEC's tools and apps help HVAC techs commission systems properly—reducing callbacks and improving system performance.Homeowners can access subsidized energy audits through utilities, often including blower door and infrared inspections.Chapters00:00 — Introduction and Guest Welcome02:00 — Steve's Background & The Origin of The Energy Conservatory05:00 — How Blower Doors Were Invented & Early Challenges08:00 — Engineers, Inventors & TEC's Company Culture11:00 — Advances in Airflow Testing: TruFlow Grid Explained15:00 — Why Airflow Is Critical for Furnace & AC Efficiency17:00 — Temperature Rise, High‑Limit Switches & Furnace Cycling20:00 — Common Installation Issues & What Inspectors Should Look For22:00 — The Truth About Furnace Filters & Pressure Drop26:00 — Oversizing Problems & Proper Equipment Matching31:00 — Why Most Homes Have Comfort Problems (and How to Fix Them)35:00 — Blower Door Testing as the First Step in Home Performance38:00 — Moisture, Attic Frost & Air Leakage Pathways41:00 — Styles of Homes That Tend to Be Leakier44:00 — Balloon Framing vs. Platform Framing47:00 — Why the Industry Changes Slowly & The Role of Training52:00 — How Homeowners Can Learn More & Access Energy Audits53:00 — Closing Tho

Special thanks to Undeceptions Season 16 major sponsor Zondervan Academic. Since Charles Darwin's 1859 book On the Origin of Species, evolution has been considered by many to be the final nail in the coffin of religion.Because evolution is supposedly random - or indeed, blind - the argument follows that there is no design.But recently, a quiet revolution has been raging among the top tier of evolutionary scientists.The apparent randomness of evolution has come into question, and some experts now suggest there may be patterns, agency, and even intention behind it all.FOR FULL SHOW NOTES - click here.CREDITSUndeceptions is hosted by John Dickson, produced by Kaley Payne and directed by Mark Hadley. Alasdair Belling is a writer-researcher.Siobhan McGuiness is our online librarian. Lyndie Leviston remains John's wonderful assistant.  Santino Dimarco is Chief Finance and Operations Consultant. Peter Kozushko is our North American representative and a point of contact for church pastors interested in engaging with our work here at Undeceptions.  Editing by Richard Hamwi.Our voice actor today was Dakotah Love. Special thanks to our series sponsor Zondervan for making this Undeception possible. Undeceptions is the flagship podcast of Undeceptions.com - letting the truth out.

* Couldn't Stand the Weather: This week Fred Williams and Doug McBurney are joined by Lt. Col. (R) Paul Homan, PhD, former Director of Meteorology at the Air Force Academy, who now serves in the Officer's Christian Fellowship at the Academy. (You can catch Dr. Homan's previous appearances on RSR regarding methane, CO2 and anthropomorphic climate change right here). * Chemtrails! Find out the real story behind the origin of chemtrails, (and how it turns out the Air Force was behind it the whole time). * Hard Currency: Predictions are the hard currency of Real Science and last time Dr. Homan was on Real Science Radio Dr. Homan made a prediction about the 2025 climate being slightly cooler than 2024, and he was right!  * Texas Flood: Did cloud seeding a few days before the 2025 4th of July floods on the Guadalupe River in Texas contribute to the tragedy there? * Cloud Seeding: Dr. Homan provides a clear explanation of what cloud seeding is, how it works, and what's really at play in events like the lack of snow at the opening of the winter Olympics in Peking and the Dubai flash floods in 2024. * Steering a Hurricane: Find out how much energy would be involved in order for HAARP or any other government program, or actor to steer a hurricane in order to effect an election. and whether or not "weather modification" might be a weapon. * Accidental Geoengineering: Hear how human activity like jet contrails and car exhaust have an impact on the climate (and the weather), and how they compare to the sun's solar cycle and volcanoes like the Hunga Tonga undersea eruption in 2022. * Sponsor a Show! Go to our store, buy some biblically oriented science material and sponsor a show! * In The Beginning: Pre-order the 9th edition of Walt Brown's amazing, enlightening, biblically sound book explaining why Earth, (and the solar system) look the way they do!

Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS delivers a deep dive into winning local SEO using Google Business Profile. He explains how local SEO works through the formula of product/service plus location, then breaks down the technical backbone — sitemaps, robots.txt, and no-index tags — revealing how one misconfigured tag can make an entire website invisible to Google. Real client case studies include a bakery in Georgia invisible on Google from two miles away, and a massage therapy business paying $16–$32 per click for keywords they could rank for organically. Dr. Fashion and Celese Williams contribute insights on keyword research, engagement, and why AI still needs the human element for conversions.Book SEO Services?

Google ranks your webpage.""The only way to create capacity is by building it.""You can't even be on ChatGPT if you're not on Google.""I'd rather have so much organic feedback that I can run ad campaigns for branding, not survival.""If you don't have the words people type in your domain, you have no conversation."FAQs AnsweredWhat is local SEO?Product or service plus location, optimized so nearby people find you through search.What is a no-index tag?It tells search bots not to index a page. If left on by default, your entire site becomes invisible to Google.What are sitemaps and robots.txt?Sitemaps list your content for search engines. Robots.txt instructs bots on what to crawl or block. Both must work together.How many services can I list on GBP?Google allows about 30 service listings — most businesses only use a fraction.Does SEO still matter with AI search?Yes. If you are not on Google, you will not appear on ChatGPT, Perplexity, or any AI search tool.Key TakeawaysConnect your website to Google Search Console and ensure proper indexing. Use city and state in your URLs for local ranking. Fill all 30 service slots on GBP. Build organic content to reduce ad spend. LinkedIn outperforms Instagram for B2B.E-E-A-T is the code of conduct for local search visibility.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

* Couldn't Stand the Weather: This week Fred Williams and Doug McBurney are joined by Lt. Col. (R) Paul Homan, PhD, former Director of Meteorology at the Air Force Academy, who now serves in the Officer's Christian Fellowship at the Academy. (You can catch Dr. Homan's previous appearances on RSR regarding methane, CO2 and anthropomorphic climate change right here). * Chemtrails! Find out the real story behind the origin of chemtrails, (and how it turns out the Air Force was behind it the whole time). * Hard Currency: Predictions are the hard currency of Real Science and last time Dr. Homan was on Real Science Radio Dr. Homan made a prediction about the 2025 climate being slightly cooler than 2024, and he was right!  * Texas Flood: Did cloud seeding a few days before the 2025 4th of July floods on the Guadalupe River in Texas contribute to the tragedy there? * Cloud Seeding: Dr. Homan provides a clear explanation of what cloud seeding is, how it works, and what's really at play in events like the lack of snow at the opening of the winter Olympics in Peking and the Dubai flash floods in 2024. * Steering a Hurricane: Find out how much energy would be involved in order for HAARP or any other government program, or actor to steer a hurricane in order to effect an election. and whether or not "weather modification" might be a weapon. * Accidental Geoengineering: Hear how human activity like jet contrails and car exhaust have an impact on the climate (and the weather), and how they compare to the sun's solar cycle and volcanoes like the Hunga Tonga undersea eruption in 2022. * Sponsor a Show! Go to our store, buy some biblically oriented science material and sponsor a show! * In The Beginning: Pre-order the 9th edition of Walt Brown's amazing, enlightening, biblically sound book explaining why Earth, (and the solar system) look the way they do!

God has great plans for our lives, but those plans are blocked when we deceive ourselves. Deceiving ourselves makes us spiritually blind to the truth of a situation; this is something God wants to deliver us from. Self-deception springs from the fall of man in the garden of Eden, and our sinful nature that resulted from it. The lies we believe about ourselves neutralize us. Recognizing who we are in Christ and believing what God says about us opens our eyes to the truth about ourselves.
